...working towards a Masters degree in Biomedical Science and hope to apply to medical school this upcoming year! Apart from medicine, I am really enthusiastic about education.

I take pride in my ability to break concepts down and make them relatable and fun- strategies I employ when I'm studying, myself. In my spare time, I enjoy photography and practicing calligraphy.

...ages of 7 to 18. By far, my favorite subject to tutor is Math because once a student understands a mathematical concept, the problems that he/she struggled with before become astonishingly easy. I believe that tutoring is a very underestimated supplemental tool that should be more seriously considered if a student is having trouble grasping the concept. A fair and adaptive 1-on-1 tutoring method helps students to understand the material on their own, which is...

...approach is simple. While I love those topics, they're not for everyone, and that's totally okay. My strategy involves finding connections between the weaker subject and the student's current strengths, and to use real life examples to better understand the material. For students without a naturally good test-taking ability, I believe my personal experience of originally being a poor standardized test-taker provides me a unique perspective. While for me this was for reading comprehension sections,...

...think these subjects can be fun to learn and are very useful in a variety of fields. I want to convey my passion for these subjects to students to help them achieve their utmost potential. As an undergraduate student, I can relate to most high school students who are planning to take the standardized tests and AP exams, and I believe these students can excel with the right push and guidance. In my spare time,...

...a pediatrician. I love tutoring in chemistry. I personally like general chemistry or quantitative chemistry. General chemistry lets you understand the basics of chemistry and allows you to understand big chemistry topics in each area such as organic chemistry, physical chemistry, biochemistry, and forensic chemistry. I love quantitative chemistry because math comes easily to me. Math is a language that I understand, and when applied to chemistry it is easier to picture things in my...

...tutor for German students with English writing projects. This was a wonderful experience that allowed me to develop a deeper understanding of English academic writing by approaching it from a non-native perspective, while simultaneously improving my fluency in German, which I have studied for ten years. Following these experiences, I also enjoy tutoring in writing, English, German, and the Reading/Writing/Language sections of standardized tests (ACT, SAT, and GRE). My favorite subject to tutor is writing;...

...is Ayanna and I just graduated a semester early from Seton Hall University with a Bachelors in Biology and an Africana Studies minor. I am currently in the process of applying to medical school, and in the meantime, would like to help other students reach their greatest academic potential.

...college, I have tutored numerous immigrant children all over New York in subjects such as Science and English, and I taught English to adults who immigrated from South America. While I can tutor a wide range of subjects, I am very passionate and eager to teach all levels of Biology and English.

I have experience tutoring and teaching and I'm in school studying to be a Math teacher. I am dedicated to helping my students understand the material and to achieve their goals. I love using visuals, interactive programs, manipulative materials, and creative examples to help my students succeed.

...being able to provide guidance and tips that I believe were necessary from my experience. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I hold a focus on math, especially subjects from middle school to high school-level courses. I believe that every student learns in his or her unique way and that the job of a tutor is to find out the optimal learning method and provide the customized lessons for the student.

...I want to share some of the knowledge that I've acquired, and because I genuinely find the work very rewarding. I have been teaching and tutoring informally for many years now, sometimes through established positions, but more often out of goodwill. I am a member of the Northeastern Downbeats, a co-ed a cappella group on campus. In the past, I played on my high school's ultimate frisbee team and captained my high school's badminton team....

...value of hard work, curiosity, and persistencelessons I bring to every tutoring session. My teaching philosophy is simple: practice makes progress. Sure, explaining and lecturing are important, but the best learning happens when students can dive in, try things out, and connect the dots themselves. During sessions, I start with a quick, clear explanation, move into practice, and then review to make sure everything sticks. When I'm not tutoring, I'm probably watching or playing basketball....

...Neuroscience with the goal of becoming a research scientist. I have previously tutored college students in the Chemistry Help Center at Nassau Community College, as well as frequently helping classmates in my science classes with any questions that come up prior to an exam. I tutor many science subjects, including chemistry, biology, and mathematics. My favorite subjects to tutor are chemistry and biology, as they relate most closely to my own area of study, which...

Ever since bringing refugee children up to and beyond grade-level mathematics while tutoring in the mid-2000s, I have always been motivated by a spirit of service to community, society, and humanity at large. Teaching and tutoring is one small but essential part of that ethos.

I am a dedicated bilingual (English and Spanish) science educator. I believe science is a way of life, not just a subject. It helps guide us in our decisions and how they affect those around us.

...being motivated to further one's education allows an individual to have more control over their future. Learning should be an enjoyable experience. It should create a deeper understanding of the world and oneself. Having big dreams and working hard to achieve them provides an individual more choices and opportunities in life.
