...to a multitude of courses and projects involving knowledge of advanced physics concepts, and has given me plenty of experience tutoring my peers and project teammates. Physics is the most interesting topic to me because it highlights how physical processes in our world are governed by complex mathematical formulas. These formulas allow us to model, simulate, and analyze concepts of forces, motion, electricity, waves, and many more, which we use to build incredible technologies that...

...Thus, I always try to see and explain things from the student's viewpoint(s) and use his/her own reasoning methods instead of mine. I earned my Bachelor of Science's degree in Applied Mathematics with a concentration in Chemistry from Marist College. Numbers and formulas have always been my passion and refuge. I love solving problems. Most importantly, I love knowing and explaining the why and how of every problem and concept. I look forward to working...

...State University. My dream was to become a research scientist and make the kind of interesting discoveries that I heard about when I was a kid. However, I discovered that I enjoy teaching much more than doing research so I became a high school teacher. In addition to teaching high school math and physics, I have taught math at a community college and physics at a university. I spent several years working as a tutor...

...I was spending countless hours reading, drilling flash cards, and reworking problems without receiving the same results. School just never came naturally for me, and I often felt incompetent, unmotivated and embarrassed to ask for help. Thankfully, I had wonderful teachers, mentors, and tutors along the way that helped me master the strategies and techniques that worked best for my studies and inspired me to love learning. I became increasingly confident throughout the years, eventually...

...with the DAT having scored well myself (I can provide documentation of my score). When I tutor a student I first like to hear from them what they understand and then build from there. I find this is efficient because we don't spend time on something he/she already understands and can dedicate time to learning new information. I then like to walk them through an example or two and supervise them while they attempt some...

Hi I'm Kara! I graduated from Grinnell College in Iowa in May 2017 where I majored in biological chemistry. During college, I worked as a class mentor for 1st and 2nd-year biology classes. As a mentor, I helped during class time and lab, but I also held sessions twice weekly outside of class to review and teach the material. I really enjoy working with my peers on biology concepts.

I am a graduate of the University of Toronto, Reichman University, and Western Governors University. I have been teaching children, youth, and adults in various academic settings since 2008.
