I can not only help you understand the math, but also help you study more efficiently and manage your time effectively while taking tests. I look forward to teaching anyone who has the desire to...

...Connecticut, and Wesleyan College (Macon, Georgia). At the same time, I have worked as a teacher and tutor for the LSAT, GMAT, and GRE for over thirteen years. I am one of two authors of the all-new revision of Barrons GMAT guide and Barrons Passkey to the GMAT, and have previously written content for Kaplan, Parliament Tutors, and Success Prep. Because of my lengthy experience, I am intimately familiar with the methods and principles used...

...school, I worked for several top Fortune 500 Companies - including Goldman Sachs Group, McKinsey & Co., and Bain & Co. - as well as the American Cancer Society. I have also lectured at Harvard, Yale, and MIT; and most recently gave a TED talk as the closing speaker at the 2015 TEDMED conference. Helping students to achieve their academic goals has been my lifelong passion. I have over 25 years of experience tutoring students...

...had a love and passion for science and math, but my strongest subject has always been chemistry. Every student has a unique learning style, and they may have to approach subject matter a different way than their school is teaching it. I have seen first hand students who do not understand material because the teacher will only teach one way to approach the problem. However, when these students were shown other methods, or had the...

...acting, I sometimes pretend to be sick so Emory medical students can practice their patient interactions with me. I play golf with my friends. I'm trying to learn to throw a perfect knuckleball, because that pitch has always fascinated me. I teach because it's meaningful work; no one's life was made measurably or permanently better when I was serving pizzas. Teaching, though, can have a lasting impact. I am where I am and even who...

...school reading to test prep to music composition. I've taught businessmen, teenagers, and a classroom full of 10 year olds. And I've gotten results every time. I strongly believe in the power of personalized education, tailored for the individual student and human being. When I'm not tutoring, I spend most of my time on my two indie rock bands, in which I play guitar and bass and write many of the songs. I also like...

...for math and science I have found a successful style usually involves finding example, homework, or test problems the student did not understand. After identifying these problems I can review or teach the necessary concepts to the student, then go back and help the student solve the problems correctly. I love the help students understand concepts they struggled with previously! I think a lot of dislike among students for math and science comes from a...

...Biology, I am also passionate about Math, Chemistry and English courses. Throughout college I also worked with a student in SAT preparation and AP Calculus AB. I am confident that my personal experiences taking the ACT, SAT and various AP courses in high school not only helped me teach my student but also relate to him. I understand how demanding AP courses can be and know what it takes to succeed in them. As a...

...editing essays and applications, and generating lists of potential institutions to apply to. I received a 35 on my ACT. In the past, I was a teacher's assistant at a home and school for severely autistic children ages 9-14, and worked on overcoming communicative barriers to foster interpersonal connections. I have also tutored multiple children with learning disabilities. In my experience, getting students engaged is just about finding the strategy that works best for them....

...undergraduate and graduate degrees in Accountancy. After graduation, I worked as an auditor for a Big Four accounting firm, primarily working with public clients. During that time, I took and passed all CPA exams. Currently, I work as an accounting supervisor for a Fortune 25 company in Atlanta, GA. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about accounting and math. While a grad student, I was a TA. All students...

...writing and Spanish. I enjoy tutoring because I love the material I teach. Making it understandable and easy for the student is my goal, no matter if the subject is Calculus, Chemistry, Spanish or English. I teach like I learn, step-by-step, and always thinking through the reasoning behind why something is the way it is. I tutor subjects in many different ways until it is understood well by the student. I look forward to working...

...current events, 2) offer application of course concepts, 3) motivate for sustained learning beyond the classroom, and 4) ensure full comprehension of the concepts. Although my subjects typically present theoretical concepts, these concepts can be easily learned because many others have learned them too. The concepts also have real-world application. I utilize current events to clarify course concepts and give students a reference point for those concepts. For me, it is also important that my...

...when the defeat turns to ability in their minds and it is fantastic. I have taught in middle school, high school and college settings. Classes taught have varied through the years, including Physical Science, Algebra I, Algebra II, Physics, Chemistry, and Bible. I believe the key to tutoring is in understanding the student. Each of us learns and communicates differently. For the student to succeed, the tutor must learn how the student thinks, teach to...

...writing. I then transitioned into working with struggling students in small group and coaching teachers. I love giving my teachers strategies to help students feel smart. While coaching teachers is my role, I never stopped tutoring because there's nothing like hearing my kids shout "Ohhhhh!" after doing math they never thought they could handle. I think most kids struggle in math because they think they can't memorize all the steps. I work hard to help...

I've always loved helping people, even my friends when we were in the same classes. It brings me a lot of satisfaction when I help a student feel more confident in what they are learning. It is so rewarding when I am able to relieve the stigma of certain subjects, especially math, in order for a student to perform well. I hope my work with different students is able to promote the importance of education!

...they build confidence and skills to achieve their best grades possible. My tutoring skills have been solidified through previous tutoring experiences (at the high school and college level) as well as through extensive involvement on summer camp staff. These experiences have afforded me the opportunity to build interpersonal, communication, and instructional design skills that are effective and enjoyable. I am confident that I can help students with Psychology, Quantitative Methods, English, Public Speaking, Writing/English, and...

...playing basketball, football, eating all kinds of great food, catching the newest movie or new TV show and most of all, hanging out with my friends and family. I have been tutoring since my freshmen year in college a variety of subjects including Mathematics, English and Science. With my youngest brother in high school and my youngest sister in elementary school, I have constant exposure to different levels and types of academic subjects. Teaching has...

...I love learning and love spreading my passion for the sciences. I believe that hard work and dedication will help you reach your academic goals, but understanding HOW you learn best is much more important. My main goal is to teach students how to teach themselves. I will help you develop a sense of how YOU process information so eventually you will not need me! Apart from the subjects listed on my profile, I can...

...enjoyed working with elementary school through college age students in a wide range of subjects. As my BA hints, I have earned a liberal arts education at a rigorous and stimulating institution, where critical thinking is the first priority. I believe your student will benefit as I have from learning how to approach any problem. This flexibility is, in my opinion, much more useful than memorizing superficial solution procedures often taught in schools. Let's get...

...the past, I've been certified to teach chemistry and physics classes by a prestigious test preparation company. I absolutely love teaching mathematics, chemistry and physics. But unfortunately, these are subjects that a lot of students have real difficulty in. I've discovered that I have a knack for explaining difficult mathematical/physical science concepts, so that virtually anyone can understand the material at hand. Real world examples in conjunction with visual aides seem to make my students'...
