Award-Winning Materials Science Tutors

...different needs. Personally I believe it is important to build on strengths to overpower weaknesses, this also helps weaknesses or struggles be addressed even easier. I have a lot of experience tutoring informally for the fun of it to classmates, students that were underclassmen, and even family friends and relatives. When I am not learning more about math and science, I enjoy watching sports such as football, hockey, and baseball. I enjoy the mechanical side...

...MIT undergrad studying Materials Science and Engineering with minors in Economics and Japanese. I was a TA for Physics II: Electricity and Magnetism at MIT, and I tutored in math and science in high school. I scored a perfect score on the SAT Math section twice, and have taken 11 AP tests with an average score of 4.7. I believe the best way to learn math is through challenging problems, and gaining confidence in yourself...

...and I love science. Math and science are two areas of study that I take pride in knowing. They are the study of the world around us and how it works to the most minute detail. That fascinates me. So much so that I achieved a Bachelor of Science Degree in chemistry. It is my goal to put this same kind of passion, drive and excitement in all those around me. I hope that I...

...loved tutoring. My favorite subjects to tutor are math, physics, and computer science, but I really enjoy working with students of all ages in all subjects. I love it when I see the smile on other's faces when they finally understand the material and realize how fun learning is. I believe education is one of the most important gifts in life and that everybody should have the opportunity to be educated. One day, I hope...

...the Composites Manufacturing Laboratory on campus were I instructed hundreds of students on the basics of fabricating composite parts for a variety of applications including vehicle wing elements, rocket casings, and sporting goods. When tutoring a student, I prefer to learn what motivates them to be successful and where their passion lies with a subject. My passion is for understanding the world around me through engineering, math, and science, so I prefer and enjoy tutoring...

...day. It's ok to fail, but don't allow yourself to quit. Learning is hard sometimes because everyone's brain understands things in a different way. But those difference, when explored, can make learning fun and complex topics easier to understand. I'm not the old guy who loves hearing his own voice and likes to stand; so I don't lecture. I like to keep teaching/learning process fun, interactive, and creative because no one likes to be bored...

...wide-reaching academic background that spans architecture and computational design, biological engineering, materials science, supramolecular chemistry, and digital fabrication. Accordingly, I feel that I can explain complex concepts to a variety of people, with a range of skill levels and frames of reference. As a tutor, I am incredibly patient and try to make learning fun, automatic, and easy. Academically, I have advanced degrees in materials science, architecture, and synthetic biology, and will be pursuing a...

...learners. Some of my favorite sessions are helping adult learners achieve their goals through community college or technician courses! I am an enthusiastic tutor who will do my best to make you feel as if your 1-2 hour session has flown by. It's important to me that my students feel confident and capable by the end of their sessions. I do not lecture, but instead, I integrate active learning throughout my sessions. This challenges students...

...majors as well as helping to staff designated tutoring sessions for the course material, and briefly as a one-on-one Biomechanics tutor for a few months. I also participated in a few outreach programs (with RPI's Biomedical Engineering Graduate Council) which aimed to get young children involved and interested in science. I also studied the fundamentals of computer programming and data structures during my senior year of university, and have had an interest in programming ever...

...League schools as well as other top universities across the country with top scholarships. I tutor in all subjects from French to Essay Writing and Algebra to Chemistry! I want my students and tutees to see the value in themselves and know that they can accomplish anything with determination and hard work! Realizing you can do it is half the battle and working hard to bring that dream to fruition is the other half!... I've found...

...STEM subjects. As such, my primary subjects that I tutor are STEM subjects, especially math, physics, and other subjects within the realm of mechanical engineering. I love helping students understand difficult concepts. One of my joys in life is seeing the "light bulb come on" when a student makes the connection that helps them understand a previously incomprehensible problem. My tutoring style involves asking a student questions to guide their own discovery of the solution...

...their academic goals. No matter where a student currently stands in regard to their understanding of a particular topic, I am confident that I can help them reach their fullest potential. I will relate the material to real-life examples and break down each topic step by step. If you need any assistance with physics, chemistry, or math, please feel free to reach out to me! I look forward to meeting and working with you!

...I am passionate and enthusiastic when I teach, as I strive to include diverse lesson plans, many hands-on activities, give useful resources, valuable information, and have a zeal to help students learn something new and then be able to watch them expand upon it. I love to see when a student realizes that they finally "get it", or "just realize that they have just learned(something new), and become more confident in themselves". Affirmation and praise...

I'm a recent PhD graduate in Bioengineering in the Boston area. My thesis involved nanoparticles and bacterial infections, but as a biomedical engineer I've had training in circuits, mechanics, some programming, chemistry and biology. Tutoring for me is a collaborative effort, following a problem-based learning with questions that will lead the student towards the answer they're looking for while providing a well-rounded understanding of why and how that answer works.

...problem. On top of my scientific pursuits, I have immersed myself in the worlds of classical Latin and Spanish. The beauty of language and its power are so wonderful. I am extremely passionate about biology, chemistry, math, and language. I have learned a great deal thus far, and really want to help others along their learning journeys! I firmly believe that with the proper guidance, we all possess the abilities to grasp and master complex...

...career at the University of Pittsburgh, I found myself assisting peers and underclassmen with their coursework. With those experiences, I've learned to truly show one's propensity in a subject, you must be able to explain complex concepts in simple terms. My two degrees, Natural Science and History and Philosophy of Science, have given me the capacity to approach a variety of fields with an assortment of techniques. The diversity of my skillsets encourages me to...

I am a rising sophomore at Case Western Reserve University studying engineering. I have taken most high-school level standardized tests, and have scored consistently above the 95th percentile. I have tutored small groups of students throughout high school, and also have experience as a private tutor. Outside of the classroom, I enjoy playing Ultimate Frisbee with my college club team.

...a TA in chemistry and biology college level courses. My hands on experience has helped me become a better teacher because I use many different types of real world examples for students to learn and grasp concepts. I know every student can achieve greatness through hard work and when someone supports them along the way. In my spare time, I enjoy going for walks, listening to music, watching Netflix, and being outdoors.

There is no physiological difference between our brain and the brain of Albert Einstein. The only difference between us and him is that he learned the material first.

I have worked as a tutor for the University of Tulsa since 2011, helping students with college level math and engineering courses including Calculus, Physics, and Statics. I like to let students set the pace for their sessions and offer suggestions or guidance with coursework as needed when needed, but am open to preparing more detailed lessons as required.
