Award-Winning High School Chemistry Tutors serving St. Charles, MO

...St. Louis in 2016 with a major in Neuroscience and minors in Mathematics and Biophysics. One of my passions as a future physician include the ability to educate not only patients about their health but also future doctors such as myself. Ever since high school I fell in love with tutoring. After school, I would help friends and classmates with trigonometry, pre-calculus, and calculus and I loved the feeling of being able to transform a...

...these challenges on an individual basis focused on the learning style (written, visual, audible) of the student. To do this, I develop very short mini-lesson plans guided on educating me: the goal of the mini-lesson plans is to quickly identify areas of weakness and then hone in on these areas with my students for as long as they need to build a strong foundation moving forward. This also allows me to maximize time with students...

...professional career has been primarily the management of healthcare and technology companies (three of which integrated my love of chemistry and business). I currently work with a tech startup developing a global entertainment platform. My teaching experience began with tutoring chemistry during college and continued with adult instruction in medical procedures (EMT-A), equipment use and maintenance (kidney dialysis), and software applications (ERP, EMR, and Windows). Most of my students have been young adults without any...

...of medical school and wanted to use my free time to do something that I love, which is teaching students. I have tutored since I was in high school and love the challenge of helping students understand and master their course material. Over time, I have developed numerous techniques to help my students get the most out of my sessions so they can excel in whatever subject matter they are struggling with.

...solve a variety of related questions. I tend to discourage shortcuts or simplifications and ask students questions about background material and related concepts to aid in their understanding of the current topic. I believe that learning is hard work, but that it should be enjoyable and rewarding. Making mistakes is part of the process, so I encourage students to take risks and not be afraid of asking questions or getting wrong answers along the way....

I am an incoming sophomore at the University of Michigan's school of engineering. I am majoring in computer science and minoring in creative writing. Math is one of my best subjects and I was in the top accelerated program throughout middle school and high school. As a tutor, I think it's most important to teach something you're passionate about, because then you will not only educate the person you're tutoring -- you will inspire them.

...years of postdoctoral training at Washington University in Saint Louis. My ultimate goal of being an educator is to contribute to the development of successful adults that leave my classroom with the knowledge and critical thinking skills to face the challenges our society will expect of them. The reason why I teach is to inspire the future of our society to reach beyond what has been achieved before. How I teach is a process that...

...a Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry and minors in Environmental Nutrition and Chemistry. After graduation, I plan on applying to medical school. In my free time, I volunteer as a tutor for local refugees. I also serve as a peer tutor at my university. Although I tutor a broad range of subjects, my specialties include biochemistry, chemistry, and physics. In my experience helping students, I find that active learning, as well as visual aids, help...

...Cum Laude from an American school in China. I am a native English speaker, but I have been learning Mandarin for my entire life as well. I took 9 AP tests throughout high school in addition to the ACT. I got a 5 on Calculus BC, macroeconomics, psychology, seminar, and statistics, and a 4 on microeconomics, chemistry, computer science A, and environmental science. I am passionate about helping others, and believe that a strong fundamental...

...our future. Though science and math seem like intimidating subjects to many, I believe that everyone has the capacity to learn and understand how they can be useful to our every day life. I feel that learning is like building a house. When you start with a solid foundation and add knowledge one layer at a time, you end up with a strong, balanced understanding of the material. I love to laugh and have a...

My goals is to help my student think and gain confidence in what they do and to be passionate about their work and feel proud of their achievements. My role will be to empower my students to achieve things they did not think possible.

...half years ago and started college at the St. Louis Community College. While I was studying at the community college, I worked as a peer tutor under Trio student support service. Basic and general chemistry were my specialties. I had a chance to work with many students from various backgrounds. I also participated in a volunteer program where we go to local public high school once a week to help the students with math, reading...

...re-frame the material in a manner that appeals to their interests as much as their prior knowledge. While making science relatable can certainly be a tall order, as these are tough and sometimes discouraging subjects after all, I find it tremendously rewarding to see a student at last discovering connections between the strange and seemingly disparate concepts encountered in these courses. Finally, as a true believer in the beauty of numbers and the written word,...

...and tutoring students at all levels from my time as an undergraduate at Brown University, through my graduate studies at MIT to my current research position now at Washington University. In college I tutored Biology, Chemistry and Organic Chemistry to fellow undergraduates. In graduate school I was a teaching assistant for undergraduate courses in Immunology and Genetics.The combination of my research experience along with my teaching experience means that I use the things I learned...

...starting medical school at SLU in the fall. I primarily tutor college-level courses in biology and chemistry, but can also tutor high school level courses and help students prepare for the MCAT. My favorite subject to tutor is organic chemistry because I find it fun like a puzzle. As a tutor, I like to push students outside of their comfort zone and give them challenging practice problems to try, providing aid along the way but...

...in connecting with a student as a tutor is listening and working with the student to identify where their strengths are and what they want to improve. From there, every kind of material can be improved upon; it just takes a little perseverance. When not working in the lab or tutoring, I am an avid runner and cyclist. I enjoy exploring new restaurants. What I enjoy most is gardening, when it is warm out, and...

...minor in Leadership Studies. While studying at UIUC, I also tutored at the junior high - introductory college course level in social studies and related subjects are my forte. As a tutor, I find that its easiest when the student learns in a guided manner, rather than bland memorization or content exposure. With one on one teaching, it is possible to do this effectively and, with effort, will lead to higher absorption of material -...

...towards my Master's in Public Health with a concentration in Epidemiology. I completed my undergraduate studies at Saint Louis University as well, receiving a Bachelor of Science in Health Sciences. In addition to the core curriculum for my major, I also completed all of the necessary classes to apply to medical school. This has given me a wide range of subjects that I am familiar with and comfortable tutoring, especially in biological fields such as...

I love to teach, that's why I decided to become a tutor while I'm studying to become a science teacher. I can help with things like algebra, calculus, physics, chemistry, English, and especially ACT subjects. It was only 3 years ago that I took the ACT and did very well, and now I want to help new students do the same.

...Teaching is my passion, and I am never happier than when I am helping students make sense of new information.
