Award-Winning High School Chemistry Tutors serving Hoboken, NJ

When I was in the ninth grade, one algebra tutor changed my whole perspective on mathematics and showed me that it wasn't as scary as I initially thought. Since then, I realized the power a teacher holds in shaping young minds, and I aim to do the same with my students. Additionally, I have approximately eight years of tutoring experience as well as two years of experience as a co-teacher in an elementary school.

While at Rice, I was a teaching assistant for undergraduate genetics and graduate molecular biophysics. During this time, I was also a co-creator and mentor for the...

...clarity and context - to act as a guide in learning, not an answer key. I understand how to deconstruct complex ideas into basic concepts and to build knowledge on strong fundamentals. Rather than bombard a student with information, I want to communicate and receive feedback to understand how they learn. One-on-one tutoring allows students the opportunity to learn at their own pace which is especially important for those in the NYC school system. Aside...

...areas. I am comfortable teaching a number of subjects at a number of different levels, but my absolute favorite subjects are Physics, Chemistry, Math and Biomedical Engineering. The basic sciences are always the most interesting because they govern the behavior of the world around us and it still amazes me how a few simple equations can apply to so many situations, including things we experience every day. My preferred teaching style involves a little bit...

...as well as college admissions mentoring and creative writing. As a sophomore I was a teaching assistant for Harvard's laboratory electronics class. It was a very hands on class, and led me to a visual and intuitive style of teaching. My students rated me 4.6/5.

I started out taking basic classes and constantly going to the tutoring center as well as my professors' office hours. Building a solid base in these lower level courses helped me understand more...

...students since I was in high school. When I see students coming up with their own study techniques, it inspires me. I believe that every student is different. The same strategy will not work for everyone. My goal is to influence the student enough to come up with their own technique. A teacher can only open the door to knowledge, but the student has to be intrigued enough to go through the door.

...three years and really enjoyed working with students. Additionally, I've had success on the SAT and the GMAT exams, and look forward to sharing my tips and tricks with students or business school applicants who are gearing up for these exams.
