...State University. I recently completed three years of my MD curriculum and am now returning to tutoring during my MBA studies. I struggled throughout high school until finally preparing for the SAT and ACT, so I'm adept with picking up just what you're struggling with - I was there once, too. Now having performed in the upper 10% of all standardized exams I have taken and graduated with high honors with all my degrees, I'm...

...found joy in helping others. As early as kindergarten, this manifested itself in helping my classmates in school. As I progressed through school, I continued helping out my classmates, and eventually began tutoring a few friends. It was something that I genuinely enjoyed. Throughout my life, I have learned that passion and care are two of the most important things in successfully teaching and tutoring someone, and those are qualities I possess in abundance. I...

...of how they liked the way I had explained the topic by relating it to real-world examples. For example, when going over ionization energies for elements, they can be thought of in the same way as viewing a plane that is trying to reach orbit. The potential energy that increases with each subshell around the atom is synonymous with the energy that it would take for a plane to reach orbit from differing heights; the...

...10+ years of tutoring mathematics and two years teaching mathematics at the high school level, I have found students have an underlying fear that "math skills" are an inherited ability. My personal goal is to show every student that anyone can become skillful in mathematics if they put in the practice and gain the confidence in the subject. I am most passionate about mathematics because it explains so many of the intricate beauties we encounter...

I am proficient in all Core Curriculum subjects, but I truly enjoy Reading...

Since college, I've spent time as a volunteer tutor for high school and middle school students from disadvantaged backgrounds. I love teaching and I think there's nothing quite as exciting as helping someone truly understand a topic they've been struggling with. My favorite subjects to tutor...

I'm almost a doctor! Ask me anything! I studied Human Physiology in college in addition to all the pre-requisites for medical school. I'm a 4th year med student now and can answer any questions related to that as well :)

...taught elementary science first through fourth grade and have been formally teaching for five years. I am passionate about the subjects of math and science.

I have a degree in Mechanical Engineering from...

I am freshman at the University of Arizona. I am majoring in aerospace engineering with a minor in studio art. I have multiple years experience tutoring many different ages and skill levels in mathematics. My personal tutoring style is based upon guidance, not instruction. By teaching using concepts that a student already understands, it is possible for them to feel just as comfortable with new material as with basic mathematics.

...a wide range of subjects. In addition to working at Sylvan, I also have experience as a TA and course leader for students at the University of Arizona taking classes in history. I have taught and tutored K-8 math, reading at all levels (from phonics development to critical anaylsis of texts), study skills, SAT preparation, social studies, and history at the high school and undergraduate level. While each subject is rewarding in its own way,...

...had students with IEPs or 504 plans in my classes at every academic level. I pride myself in breaking down difficult texts (including Shakespeare and Beowulf) so that students find them approachable. I enjoy being able to work one-on-one with students who benefit from specific strategies and extra instructional time, particularly due to dyslexia and/or ADHD. In my experience, encouragement can make a world of difference when students struggle with a subject, no matter what...
