Award-Winning MCAT Tutors in Norwalk, CT

...clinical laboratory whenever necessary. I remember hearing stories of how I was not quite tall enough as the lab counter and had to stand on my toes to get a better view of the PCR machine whenever she used it. I wasn't really interested in what it did, but rather, in the noise it made- a low, grumbling hum. Then, there was the fume hood, a glass and metal contraption that I thought was from...

...them best. I always ask students what THEY think is the way to solve the problem/the next step to take so that I can learn how they think and change my responses to enhance their learning style. As someone who was just in your shoes less than 1 year ago, I know how daunting and overwhelming the MCAT can be, so I am here to help with content, test-taking strategy, or just planning on your...

I am a graduate of Columbia University with a bachelor's in Neuroscience (pre-med). I have tutored many high school students, mainly in Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. Having just taken the MCAT and scoring in the 97%, I have extensive knowledge in the sciences. I love teaching and believe in a personalized, student-based approach that emphasizes making mistakes to promote learning.

Hi! I recently graduated from Columbia University with post-baccalaureate in Pre-Medical Sciences. I also hold a BA in Public Health from UC Berkeley. I am passionate about helping others understand the fascinating world of biology so please don't hesitate to ask me any questions. Also, if you need general guidance on applying to college, I am here for you as well. (I am only available through online tutoring)

...I have significant experience. I take great enjoyment from helping students at all levels meet (and often exceed!) their goals. Generally, I apply the principles that worked for me as a student - as well as for past students I've tutored - in order to give my students the knowledge and tools to succeed in their classes and on their exams. I'm currently taking a gap year before starting my radiology residency in New York...

...helping students of any age to become stronger writers. I am also passionate about enhancing students' skills in critical thinking, especially through STEM topics, which can set students up for success in any difficult course or standardized test. I hope to instill a strong appreciation for education and learning within each of my students, and I believe that the first step is to help students feel more confident in their areas of interest while setting...

...material in a way that the entire class can understand. This situation can be easily remedied with private tutoring, which is where I come in. Having just completed a degree in biomedical engineering at the University of Pennsylvania, I have gained a strong understanding of several subjects within math and science. In the past, I've tutored in math and writing at both high school and collegiate levels. These experiences have been thoroughly enjoyable because, in...

...order to improve their skills. My passion for mathematics and economics is expressed through my teaching methods, and I feel I could help students struggling with this topic enjoy it more thoroughly, and eventually allow them to form independent skills that will advance them as both students of mathematics and scholars in general. I am also available for ACT English and Math tutoring, and have worked with multiple students on raising their overall ACT scores...

...way to work around such problems and it starts with learning and starting to regain hope which is something I hope my students will attain. I want to help students with elementary Math and English because I have a strong passion towards helping elementary students and that is where my prior work has been done. I also want to help students making that transition to college, as I am well rounded in writing essays and...

...rather than trying to achieve a good grade on an exam (if you're learning, your grades will follow). Something that I always like to remind my students is that you can't know/understand something if you aren't taught it. The reason I emphasize this is because I don't want my students to feel judged or intimidated to ask questions and so that they can get the most out of their learning. With that being said, I...

...Tulane in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. I am very active and love to take advantage of this amazing city with my friends. My favorite courses in college were neuroendocrinology and psychology. What I've learned in med school about the process of learning is that one needs to approach the material in a way that makes the most sense for that individual. Whether it's visual, auditory, or kinesthetic, there's a "best way" for each student. I...

I'm currently a second year medical student at New York Medical College. I spent the last 4 years doing synthetic biology research at NASA Ames Research Center out in California. I graduated from Stanford University with both a bachelors and masters degrees in biology.

...School of Law. I have been an Adjunct Professor in fashion business since 2016 and love working one-on-one with students to build confidence and identify their root source of motivation while of course building knowledge and develop critical thinking skills. I'm available to tutor students in a wide range of topics including English (grammar, writing, reading, spelling, etc.), math (through Algebra 2), and history. As a US Presidential Scholar who earned a 35 out of...

College undergraduate studying Chemical Engineering at Columbia. Tutoring in AP Physics (1, 2, C), AP calc (AB & BC), first year college physics and math. I'm bilingual; my first language is Spanish.

...was a teaching assistant for general chemistry, undergraduate organic chemistry lab, and advanced organic chemistry lab. During my years doing undergraduate and graduate research, as well as my time spent as a postdoctoral researcher and research scientist, I supervised undergraduates starting their own research careers. The most valuable lesson that I have learned in my career is not to be afraid to make mistakes. Struggling through a subject can force a student to see problems...

...a diverse range of students, as well as helping them to become more skilled and confident writers. Over the years at Varsity Tutors, I have enjoyed tailoring study plans and teaching styles for students looking to improve their verbal reasoning and writing skills in preparation for standardized tests and graduate school admissions. While I am qualified to tutor in a variety of subjects, I am particularly passionate about teaching English literature and language, verbal reasoning,...

...never the most talented student, but I achieved high success through relentless effort and developing unique strategies for success in academics. I understand how foreign complex concepts may seem in classes because I have been the confused student in the class before. At the University of Miami I was a chemistry workshop leader, where I helped explain challenging premedical chemistry questions and tests to students. I also have tutored at the Academic Resource Center at...

...individuals who deserve to have a say in what they do. I want to bring all of this passion into the fun filled experience that they have as tutoring students. It can be difficult for students having to go to school after school, but with the energy and passion I will bring to the program, the students will look forward to their tutoring program. I also want to bring my influences into the homes of...

...own understanding of the material while cementing concepts in their minds. I also heavily emphasize developing intuition as opposed to rote memorization. If a student can learn the foundational ideas that underlie the sciences, they will be able to work their way through any future problems based in those foundations. I also apply this philosophy to test prep, but supplement exam studies with a strong focus on test strategy so that my students can "beat...
