Award-Winning Laboratory Tutoring

...manner a student can learn in a way that seems to come naturally and allows knowledge to flow more seamlessly. Fostering a passion for learning and encouraging growth as a successful student are my main goals as a tutor. Outside of the lab I enjoy exploring what our great state of Colorado has to offer. Skiing, mountain biking, cycling, mountaineering and other outdoor activities usually eat up any time that is not spent pursuing my...

...I was educated extensively on Biology and Chemistry, with 20 credits in laboratory. UMBC also focuses on refining its students’ writing skills through Writing Intensive English and Science courses, preparing me to effectively communicate both verbally and in writing. I work well with students 12 and up and with past experience in tutoring high school and middle school kids (3 years) on science subjects (Different levels of Biology, Chemistry, Math, Physics), I believe I will...

...a PhD in Biochemistry/Molecular Biology, and an MD. In medical school I received numerous accolades for my scholastic accomplishments, including a Fellowship from the National Cancer Institute, "highest course score" awards, and induction into the honor societies of Alpha Omega Alpha and Phi Kappa Phi. I have an extensive publication track record in high-impact journals, and have worked on projects ranging from nanoparticle-conjugated chemotherapeutics to live cell imaging of genetically engineered cell systems.... I strongly believe in adapting my teaching style to whatever benefits my student(s) the most. There is no "one size fits all" method!

...been the Math and Science sections of ACT, the Math section of the SAT and the quantitative reasoning section of the GRE, along with subject tutoring in high school and early college Math, Chemistry and Physics. I currently tutor those standardized tests along with math from pre-algebra through calculus II, physical science, physics and chemistry. I am looking forward to helping as many students reach their academic goals as I can while I'm here. Outside...

...All, I am a chemist pursuing my M.S. in chemistry. I currently teach undergraduates as a graduate assistant. I have taught the following courses while in graduate school: General chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Analytical Chemistry and Inorganic Chemistry. I also minored in mathematics while getting my B.S. in chemistry so I have tutored students in everything from algebra to multi-variable calculus. I enjoy helping students and I get really excited when I feel I have helped...

...subject by first, helping them to take responsibility for their learning in order to engage; and I also emphasize the use of didactic (real-life) examples and get them involved by asking questions in class. I also believe that one of my best qualities, as a teacher, is my ability to inspire confidence, so that students feel comfortable expressing themselves regardless of their level of competence. Looking forward to help students achieve their best!!... I believe that learning should be an enjoyable experience. I share my passion for knowledge and critical thinking, with enthusiasm and empathy, and I effectively impact learners and connect them to their passion and lifelong learning. I direct students to overcome any difficulties that their particular subject by first helping them to take responsibility for their learning in order to engage; and I also emphasize the use of didactic (real-life) examples, and get them involved by asking questions in class. In my teaching, I apply the following general principles: First: Coverage of material is crucial, but it is also important to teach skills rather than only facts. Second: Students learn skills and facts best through an interactive teaching style that promotes student participation and challenges their abilities.

I am currently studying towards a B.S. in Chemistry at the University of Texas at Austin. My favorite subjects to tutor are violin, chemistry, and mathematics, all of which I am very passionate about. I have tutored mandarin and violin before during my high school years. My teaching philosophy involves understanding overlying concepts into detail which allow for successful application. In my free time you will most likely find me playing basketball at the local...

...Since completing my doctorate in chemistry, I have been privately tutoring to help fulfill my desire to help others learn. My specialty is chemistry, but I am well versed in biology and physics. I am a friendly, patient tutor who takes the time to explain subjects in a way the student can understand them. I am not quick to give up and will work diligently to help the student understand even the most difficult of...

...Chemistry at Harvard. Outside of the classroom, I'm a part of Georgetown's club rugby team and also participate in GUMSHOE, a club that teaches math and science to inner city students. I also enjoy going for runs to the monuments in DC and playing in pickup soccer games! For me, I especially enjoy tutoring mathematics because I think it serves as a foundation for a number of other subjects and also enhances problem solving ability....

...science in general a fascinating subject because I enjoy understanding how our world functions and how everything interacts. History I enjoy attempting to understand how certain events happened and how those events shaped the future. In general I enjoy understanding how something works at the basic level because I think it gives me a better understanding of things further down the line; whether that be understanding how a cell functions in an organism or how...

Hello! A little about myself - I am from Tulsa, OK and came to Boston for college. I studied Biomedical Engineering at both Boston University during undergrad and Tufts University for my masters. After much thought, I deviated from a medical school track to pursue a career in the medical device industry. My love for math and science started around middle school, and I was strongly influenced by my teachers. Through tutoring, I hope to...

...subjects with a primary focus on math and science. In addition, during college, I greatly enjoyed tutoring my fellow peers across different science subjects. Between the math and science subjects I have tutored, my favorite is chemistry. This is because I have personally experienced how daunting and complex chemistry can be at first. However, by gaining a strong understanding in the theoretical background, having the right mindset, and through practice, chemistry can become easy to...

...my university. The majority of my tutoring experience is in a variety of collegiate biology, chemistry, and sociology. I played volleyball all throughout high school, and my tutoring style reflects my history with sports. After all, school and game day are both all about practice! I currently work in human genomics while preparing for medical school, and I am certified by the College Reading and Learning Association as a Level 1 tutor. When I'm not...

...conducted three studies, one of which was focused on the effectiveness of tutoring methods in the sciences. In my experience, learning how to study effectively can result in significant improvements, and I have extensive experience in this area both through working with students and research. As such, my goal is to help my students become more effective independent learners. My motto in teaching is to study smarter, not harder. In my spare time, I enjoy...

...interest was heightened when I began working as an undergraduate mentor for the biology department at RPI. I was fortunate enough to continue a position as a teaching assistant for the forensic science department at UNH. Currently I work for the NYC Office of Chief Medical Examiner as a forensic scientist in the forensic biology department, and am working on pursuing a law degree. I believe that education is one of the most important things...

...school level biology, including tutoring for students with learning disabilities such as dyslexia. Not only do I enjoy helping students learn and think on their own; witnessing them explore science with a more open and curious mind is extremely fulfilling. I am a firm believer that truly grasping and learning a concept is more effective than just memorization alone. Positivity is the key to making learning successful. I look forward to helping you attain your...
