Award-Winning Organic Chemistry Tutors serving Bergen County, NJ

...believe that education is one of the most important aspects of a young person's life. Students aren't incapable of learning just because they are struggling in a subject; they simply need ideas to be conveyed in terms that they can understand. In a classroom setting, it is very difficult for a teacher to communicate subject material in a way that the entire class can understand. This situation can be easily remedied with private tutoring, which...

...foundation. For instances, machine learning algorithms like neural networks require knowledge of basic calculus concepts like derivatives to advance knowledge of differential equations. So teaching is the best way to ensure I know my knowledge accurately! Just like Albert Einstein said "If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough". For free time when I'm not studying or working, I love to watch korean drama, foreign art house films and anime. I...

...in Long Island, where I will soon begin my second year. When tutoring, I focus on laying down a strong foundation of understanding before delving into the nuances of different subjects. Students too often fall into a cycle of keeping up with material as a series of pieces of information, never understanding the core concepts and attempting to memorize individual facts. With science and math, it is important to dedicate a lot of time when...

...the thought process becomes cloudy when a student looks at a problem or standardized test. I target this thought process and ask questions to guide the student to think about a better way to approach the problem. This way, the student is able to come up with the answer rather than have me tell them how to solve it properly. I mentored 5th and 6th graders when I was finishing up middle school and served...

...find great joy in teaching math and science. Over the past few years I have had the pleasure to teach these subjects to both elementary school students, in an environmental education camp, and fellow college students, as a peer tutor.

I promote this learning by making analogies and other connections that the student not only relates to, but also...
