Award-Winning Organic Chemistry Tutors in Chester County, PA

...I grew up thinking about educational policies and philosophies and started teaching at a Sunday school when I was a senior in High School. Since then, I have done several field placements as part of my education courses and also taught in my own classrooms for two summer enrichment programs. One of the things that these experiences have taught me is that every student learns differently. Unfortunately, in a large classroom situation, it is not...

...applying to medical school, so I love tutoring science! Chemistry is my favorite subject. I often tutor SAT prep as well, and I also tutor GRE prep, math, statistics, psychology, writing, and many other subjects. My teaching philosophy is to guide students toward drawing their own conclusions and coming up with their own answers, rather than simply feeding them information. I want my students to be critical thinkers and discerning citizens of their communities. I...

...methods, enthusiasm, and confidence in every students ability. Everyone can succeed, as long as they put in the effort needed and information is presented in an accessible way. This want to tap into every students academic potential is what began my passion for teaching. I am currently a junior at Villanova University studying biochemistry as well as minoring in education and Spanish. I transferred into the biochemistry program from chemical engineering because I wanted a...

...a post-baccalaureate from Drexel University in Pre-Medical Sciences which has exposed me extensively to all sorts of clinical and gross anatomy and physiology. I work as an Anatomy and Physiology Lab Instructor at Philadelphia University. I also work in the life sciences industry working with knee and hip implants. I also tutored as a work study during my undergraduate career in A&P I and II. I am most passionate about science, environmental health, and health...

...enjoyed most. I then continued my passion for teaching throughout college as I taught classmates as well as students of under-served populations in Baltimore city. Following college, I spent a year teaching high school students of various ages in Philadelphia. Since then, I have worked at the University of Pennsylvania researching traumatic brain injury. After completing a rigorous academic path, I have learned that we learn best when we are able to both apply the...

...Science from John Jay College of Criminal Justice. I have taught and tutored Math and Chemistry to college students. I have been a laboratory technician in a college setting on and off part time for laboratory classes. This not only was a position to setup the labs for the students l, but also to assist and explain general science and higher level science topics. I taught a general chemistry laboratory and recitation as a graduate...

...students in several science courses, including General Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, and Genetics. I love tutoring General Chemistry because of the many "Aha!" moments when students suddenly make connections from chemistry to the real world. My experience with tutoring has led me to believe that discovery-based learning is the best way to solidify concepts. For this reason I focus on teaching how to use the tools available, like modeling kits and textbooks. In addition to being...

...towards on getting my Masters degree in Education from Eastern University in the upcoming spring semester. During my years as an undergraduate, I tutored and mentored AP Chemistry students at G.W. Carver High School. I also have experience in tutoring reading and math to mostly elementary to middle school age students. I most enjoy tutoring Math and Science (K-12). Teaching and learning are two of my passions. I love to see when a students eyes...

...the University of Mississippi. While in graduate school, I spent years as a laboratory teaching assistant for various undergraduate chemistry laboratory courses. I have several years of tutoring experience, primarily in undergraduate general chemistry courses. I believe that all students are capable of doing well. It is just a matter of isolating what they do not understand, formulating a plan to reinforce fundamental concepts, and helping them to build confidence by working problems.... I believe that students learn best by working and thinking through problems. I believe this is especially true for chemistry courses. Although everyone does not learn the same way, we must put in the time in order to know what does and does not work. Many students work just enough problems to familiarize themselves with a concept, but stop short of working enough problems to be truly comfortable with the actual chemistry concepts being presented. While I do believe that there is more than one way to learn something, when it comes to math and the physical sciences there is no real replacement to working your way through progressively more involved problems because they force you to think, and the process reinforces what you already know.

...years of teaching, tutoring, and educating over a wide range of both community and academic settings ranging from the collegiate to post-graduate level. I have highlighted some of these experiences in the following paragraph. During my undergraduate years, I worked as a TA in both the "Introduction to Biology" and "Biochemistry" courses, where I was responsible for both private and group tutoring. While earning my doctorate in Medical School, I employed myself as an MCAT...
