...Drew University. As a premed student, I have extensive experience learning about courses in many disciplines, such as Biology, Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Biochemistry, Physics, and Math to name a few.

...on personalizing their studies to their needs and interests. My passions as a scholar lie in the humanities -- my two and a half years in the pre-medical program at Fordham notwithstanding -- particularly in American and European history, literature and Latin. In the fall, I aim to apply to graduate school for classical studies, and I anticipate tutoring with Varsity to be very instrumental in getting me back into an academic mode of thinking....

...from WB Yeats: "Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire." This is true for a tutor as well! Tutoring should be geared to accentuate and utilize the skills and interests of individual pupils - not just be a lecture with the same content the student sees in class. Individual tutoring and training will engage the student on a deeper level and help to further their knowledge, interest, and...

...with perspectives and insights that are unique, which allow them to see each problem from different points of view. I believe that as someone seeking to help others in their studies, and as someone who understands that our lives do influence and interfere with our studies despite our wishes, I take a somewhat holistic approach to tutoring. That is why I try to relate chemistry to universal themes and situations in our lives, to be...

...a unique mindset when approaching more difficult topics and standardized testing. For students attempting to improve at their "least favorite subject," or on an exam that has challenged and frustrated them for an extended period, my 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...

...group discussion in class, assignments, or laboratory exercises. For graduate classes, the learning comes from doing experimental demonstration in classroom or lab. Research is core soul of science. During teaching, my aim to convey my message to undergraduates and all graduate students, choose science (research) for their future careers, science not only brings progress in life also significantly contribute in progress of nation and that possible by today's students and tomorrow's scientists.... Ensuring students understand basic...

Approaching math and science problems with optimism and desire for learning are key to developing one's mind and skills. More than helping to understand subjects, my goal in tutoring is to transmit desire for the sciences and passion for learning, which I believe is key to learning in the long run.

...when I spent a majority of a semster at college at the tuturing center learning Calculus 2 and one day someone behind me asked for help with a question and I knew exactly how to help.

I love being able to create a relationship with somone on the foundation of both of us becoming better...

I want to understand the student's thought process (what type...

I believe the key to education is to promote the underlying understanding of the concepts. Once a topic is understood, the application of the numbers comes easily. People don't really hate math; they hate feeling uncomfortable with it.
