In my view, the main reasons are a lax classroom environment that does not promote learning; low expectations; and unfortunately, a relatively low standard of professionalism expected of classroom teachers. Although I have seen both sides of this issue as a classroom teacher myself, and there are definitely some brilliant and dedicated classroom teachers out there, this last problem is a major reason why tutoring can be so helpful. During my tutorials, I have...

...the science bug ever since. I turned my love of science into a successful research career (just completed my PhD at Johns Hopkins!) that has taken me into the worlds of Chemistry, Medicine, Biology, and Physics.

Most of my students have substantially increased their scores enabling them to be admitted to the schools they wanted. I...
