Award-Winning High School Chemistry Tutors serving Waltham, MA

...to teach and continued tutoring when I was in college. I tutored my fellow students in Mandarin Chinese, French, and Chemistry. After I graduated, I went to China and taught English both at a school and privately for three years. Right now I am teaching English as a Second Language at a language school here in San Diego. I like private tutoring a lot more than teaching large classes because it's much more personalized, and...

...and linear algebra. By far, I enjoyed tutoring calculus the most due to its immense applicability and adaptability. I am also particularly passionate about organic chemistry and have spent much of my high school career taking classes and doing projects on the subject. In my experience, tutoring is most effective when students are given the opportunity to discover results independently. My role as a tutor is to guide and facilitate this journey of discovery. Outside...

...know the student and building on their experience. o Timely: Due to our busy schedules and the demands of coursework, goals are ranked according to their immediacy. My early career in teaching started by working for a large volunteer tutorial service at the University of Wisconsin. My experience in teaching study skills through that program helped me to work with students for whom the course content was not the only challenge. My own research interests...

...and learning about their interests. I then try to relate my teaching to my student's interests. If I can find an example relevant to their interests, I will use it. And if I'm using a metaphor, again, I try to choose metaphors most relevant to them. I specialize in a mix of organic chemistry and biochemistry, but I have a broad liberal arts background, so my knowledge can range from astronomy to theater to art...

...a unique experience because it helped develop a talent for connecting to students with whom I may have had little in common. After graduation I moved to Washington D.C. to work at a gene sequencing laboratory. During my time in the capitol I was employed by a tutor contractor which helped me find numerous high school and college level students to tutor. Now I am back home working at Massachusetts General Hospital and looking to...

...my best and tailor my teaching style to what works for the student, and this I achieve by getting to know the student and learning what their interests are so that I can apply those same soft skills to a subject they might find challenging. Personally, my favorite subjects are biology (specifically genetics and oncology), math, English, physics, history, and French. I like tutoring English because it gives me some insight to how the student...

...As a community college graduate myself, I understand the challenges facing students and I am a passionate teacher. I am currently taking a year in Cambridge to complete a Master's degree in the Harvard Graduate School of Education to further improve my skills. As a tutor, physics is my favorite topic, but I am also enthusiastic about math as well as GRE test prep. From my experience in the classroom, I have discovered that it's...

...Institute with a B.S. in Physics, and I will be attending Northeastern University to continue my education with a Ph.D. in Physics. I love helping students succeed, and I bring a strong Math and Science background to help students struggling with these difficult subjects. I believe that the secret to succeeding in these subjects is not in memorizing solutions and equations, but by developing problem solving skills so students will know how to approach and...

...have achieved 11 GCSEs and 5 A Levels, 4 of the A Levels were part of the Pre-University Cambrdge course. i'm currently in the University of Notre Dame and am going to declare my major as Science and Business. I tutor mathematics from intro level to Calculus 2, chemistry (both organic and physical), physics (classical physics as well as some modern physics, like Relativity), English Literature and comprehension, SAT prep, ACT prep. My favourite subjects...

...variety of subjects - algebra, calculus, psychology, physiology, physics, biology, and statistics. My teaching style targets each unique student's learning style and way of analyzing. That is my first targeted observation before I can truly begin tutoring with any true impact. I have spent the last two years out of school managing an organic farm and directing product and systems design for a farm-tech startup out of Boston. I am now working on some personal...

...received my Bachelor of Science in biology and a minor in psychology from Northeastern University. I am a STEM educator with over ten years of experience and worked with diverse populations of students at primary and secondary levels spanning traditional public and charter schools. I firmly believe that all students deserve bright futures through equitable access to education and career opportunities. I enjoy the outdoors and reading with my young daughters in my spare time.

...I have a strong understanding of chemistry concepts and a talent for adapting my teaching style to fit each student's unique learning preferences. I believe in creating a supportive and engaging environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and exploring the material in depth. My goal is to empower students to not only grasp complex topics but also to develop critical thinking skills that last beyond the classroom. I look forward to fostering a love...

I am a Ph.D. in Chemistry from Gauhati University, India. Since my master's in Inorganic Chemistry, I have been teaching students not only Chemistry but also Science and maths. I am more passionate about teaching Chemistry. I love helping students with their problems.

...currently in graduate school to become a pharmacist - I'm in my first year of the PharmD program at Northeastern University. As you can probably guess, my area of expertise is the sciences - specifically Biology and Chemistry. However, I am also able to teach other subjects such as math through high school levels, and standardized test prep (SAT, ACT, PCAT, etc). I have been tutoring with Varsity Tutors since June 2018. While in undergrad,...

...year! My teaching experience include peer tutoring during my college years, working with both individual students and entire classes on college-level physics, math, and Spanish. Just after receiving my BA, I designed and taught my first full course on Climate Change at the 10th grade level. We covered all sorts of material, including the Physics and Chemistry of the atmosphere and ocean, all the way to a Model UN simulation to discuss global policies! I...

Each of us is born curious about the world around us. Science explains this curiosity, but sometimes the explanations become confusing. I love science and I enjoy making difficult concepts clear and meaningful. When concepts make sense, it is easy to recall them on tests and quizzes! My background includes 24 years of public school science teaching and three years at a private high school. Currently, I teach biology and chemistry as an adjunct professor.

...articles daily to build reading skills. For those who have trouble with vocabulary questions, I also encourage zoning in on key turning points, learning the nuances of each vocabulary word, memorizing the lists of frequently appearing words on the GRE and learning new words from practice exams. For Chemistry, this involves reviewing practice exams and trying to gauge exam style once the basics have been fully mastered. My strongest tutoring subjects are General Chemistry, Organic...

...2018), where I majored in Computer Science and Biology, and a first year Bioinformatics PhD student at Harvard. As a student of 18 years myself, I am passionate about structuring education in a way that enables students to not only learn new material but also engage with each subject in a way that will empower them to use their knowledge to improve the world around them. I am humbled and eager to work with students...

...styles and difficulties quickly. In my work as a chemistry teacher, chemistry TA, and math CA, I was required to both run study sessions and grade. This taught me to use assignments to assess students' progress as frequently as possible, note general issues and probable flawed methodolgies responsible for mistakes, and tailor my teaching to focus on areas of difficulty as they appeared. My skills, experiences, and belief that every student should be approached as...
