Award-Winning Organic Chemistry Tutors in Albany, NY

...I have run my own rigorous test preparation classes and have proven methods to improve scores. Furthermore, I have experience tutoring high school students in Math, Science and English. I have completed Multivariable Calculus at the college level and several college level biology (currently majoring in) and chemistry courses and have taken writing intensive college literature courses. I have been tutoring geometry-calculus through my high school years and have experience in each subject in order...

I graduated from Penn State in May 2016 with a B.S. in Chemical Engineering. I tutored for three years helping kids in freshman and sophomore level math, physics, and chemistry courses. I have tutored groups and individuals. I am an extremely friendly person who loves teaching! The best way to teach a student is to have them answer problems on their own. As a tutor, I am there to help students reach the answer, not to be there for the answer. Specifically, I ask students difficult, but practical questions to get them thinking in the right direction. I want my students convinced they can figure problems out on their own because when it's test time... I won't be there!

...College. I aspire to become a medical care professional and work in disadvantaged and underserved communities. I believe that if an individual is ready to put in hard work and determination nothing can stop them from achieving their goals. As a tutor I aspire to motivate my students to see a difficult concept or problem not as an obstacle but as a goal that can be conquered. I strive to not only help my students...

...person are my curiosity and compassion. I like learning about fields just to know them, and in doing so have accumulated an extremely diverse knowledge base. I tend to excel at putting people at ease and breaking complex concepts down into intuitive shorthand. I have some personal experience working with students with special needs as I myself have learning disorders which have made academics difficult for me, and yet I have made it to graduate...

...certified to teach over 100 subjects at Varsity Tutors from Spanish to Neuroscience. My mission is to help my students succeed by constructing and implementing a personalized plan-of-action based on their needs. I earned my MD degree from SUNY Upstate Medical University in Syracuse, NY. I have four years of experience teaching doctors and medical students and believe strongly in fostering critical thinking and intellectual curiosity. I look forward to working together!

...were not compatible with my liking. After about two more mentors, I finally selected a intelligent, organized, and serious mentor that was heavily invested in my success. To have a mentor that is invested in your success is a fantastic feeling. Suddenly, my motivation increased, my grades improved and I was accepted into very good colleges and programs. That was my goal. I couldn't reach that goal without my mentor. My mentor taught me more...

I am currently a Chemistry student studying Biochemistry in an Organic Chemistry Lab at SUNY albany. I enjoy teaching and love learning new things. I have a love for science that will never die out and my hopes are that i can help others find their love for science too.

I promise to give you the relevant mentoring and study strategies for your subject area to ensure that you succeed academically and actually understand the work your doing! I guaranty that I can breakdown and explain tough concepts to those struggling with dry teaching styles, outdated textbooks and confusing exam questions. "Do not be afraid to ask for help. Nobody gets through college on their own." -Michelle Obama

I have engineering degrees from MIT and Cornell and extensive teaching, training, and mentoring experience, along with real world research, development, manufacturing accomplishments. I have over 25 patents and more than 75 scientific publications. I am exciting to help transfer my knowledge and skills to a new generation.

...the big picture. As a double major in Biochemistry and Neuroscience, I don't only know the material, but I also understand how it is learned best. My objective is to make you comfortable enough to tutor the subject yourself! Outside of tutoring, I enjoy activities such as hiking and running. I also research Alzheimer's and Diabetes in lab rats! I practice healthy lifestyle habits from eating well, to exercise and good sleep. I would love to...

...experience and public interactions allows me to connect with a range of people with different backgrounds and needs. I am intrigued by all realms of science, but have a special affinity to wildlife biology. It is immensely satisfying for me as a tutor when I am able to help a student connect all of their basic knowledge of science to understand more complex branches. I strongly believe that in order for a student to do...

...school for 14 years, so I have seen a number of different learning styles from around the country and around the world! I even have experience working with students with learning differences, including ADHD. I live with a partner who has ASD, so that is something else I am familiar with! My goal is to help students set and achieve their mathematics goals. In addition to answering specific homework questions I have a lot of...

...History and long division. I learned how to be patient teaching a brilliant, incorrigible young man to read. After two years there I worked at a local college's tutoring center. I specialized in College Algebra and essay composition, but worked on many other subjects as well, including organizational skills and study habits. After a year of working at the college I started at the local high school in an AVID (Advancement Via Individual Determination) class....

...students from grades K-12 and I am excited to be tutoring again. I am currently working for a pharmaceutical company in the Biotech lab in the evenings. I can tutor a variety of subjects but my true passion is for science, particularly Biology! I think it is important to determine which method of learning works best for each individual student and to find a fun and interesting way to present each subject.

I teach taking into account the individual ability of the student to grasp the information. For instance, I would give a suitable or a related example so that the student would understand the new concept by drawing a parallel with what they know already. This would ensure their cognition and also high retention.

...on tutoring Math. While I always enjoyed tutoring undergraduate students, I found great satisfaction in teaching Math to struggling teenagers. From my experiences, I learned that anyone can tackle basic mathematical ideas if they are given proper patience and instruction. Furthermore, I have learned that every student has a unique style of learning. My tutoring philosophy embodies this notion and I strive to tailor my lessons to fit each student's academic strengths. Having been successful...

...engaged in my first tutoring experience. At Learning Support Services, my employer, I provided weekly instruction to fellow UH undergraduates during the Fall 2010 and Spring 2011 academic semesters. The subjects I tutored ranged from college level science courses to advanced mathematics. In my opinion, the most rewarding aspect of tutoring is when I am able to convey a particularly challenging question to a student. I do this by approaching concepts from multiple perspectives and...

...As an instructor in Higher Ed I can attest that these "breakthrough" moments are possible, but harder to achieve in a classroom. My career in applied chemistry and dual experience with group and individual instruction has provided me with good tools for both "reading" students and producing real-life examples of how science works. Finally, I always look forward to meeting new learners and helping them clear the brush in order to blaze the trail to...

...to college level. I graduated from Boston College in 2009 and have worked at the neuroscience and psychiatry labs at Yale and Cornell. I enjoy working with people and wish to one day specialize in geriatrics. I have taught chess and English to young children and tutored children from foster care for two years to improve their literacy skills. I plan to work as a Teacher's Assistant for Physics at SUNY Purchase this upcoming Fall,...

...that could be a potential tumor suppressor. Since I graduated, I have worked as an intern at Abbott Labs and I have tutored at for another private tutoring company. Although I tutored students from the age of 3 and up in Math and Reading, my true passion lies in Science, especially Biology and Chemistry. I believe every student has the capability to excel in the sciences and my goal is to ensure that they not...
