Award-Winning Organic Chemistry Tutors in Hoboken, NJ

...college students, as a peer tutor. In these positions, I found great gratification in seeing a student have an epiphany in learning. I promote this learning by making analogies and other connections that the student not only relates to, but also finds interesting. In this manner I am not only able to make lessons exciting, but I also become energized myself. In the end my student always leaves with a fresh perspective, added strength in...

...until it all makes sense. Building from a strong foundation, each of my students can then develop effective academic strategies and succeed. I am a recent Bachelor of Science from Cornell University, where my studies revolved around applying life science research to health and social studies. I have served as an undergraduate teaching assistant for several courses, and specializes in 1-on-1 tutoring for introductory biochemistry. Biochemistry is my favorite because of how many other disciplines...

...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, but I am happy to work flexible hours.

...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 beginning a subject to clearly understand these core concepts. I have found that successfully approaching these subjects in a bottom-up way can mean the difference between continuously struggling frustratingly through courses like organic chemistry...

...I have tutored mainly in the sciences and have a passion for Biology, Chemistry, and Medicine. I have experience with tutoring college students in Biology and the focus was on engaging and have a deeper understanding the material not just memorizing nor learning for an exam. My students had the most fun when relating the material to everyday phenomena and it helped with test scores. I love education and believe that it is key to...

...I enjoy helping others succeed in any way I can. After spending a few years helping students in my hometown prepare for the SAT, I've more recently focused on the hard sciences. I've taught students of all ages in the past and I believe it is important to curtail your teaching methods to the student's favorite learning style. Whether you're a visual, auditory, or tactile learner (or some combination of all three!), I'm confident I...

...social sciences. I hold a BA in Sociology from CUNY Queens College and a MA in Economics and Education from Teachers College Columbia University. Education has always been my passion and drive. I continue to teach with the on-going pursuit to not only instill knowledge in my students but to motivate and inspire our future generations. I have an extremely hard work ethic, a unique ability to be patient and an on-going persistence to ensure...

...to try to drill material into a students head without understanding why they are learning it. I tutor Honors Chemistry, AP Chemistry, and Mathematics from Algebra 1 to College Algebra. My favorite subject to tutor would have to be chemistry because of how fascinating it can be once it is understood carefully. I would say my tutoring philosophy is to have patience. Understanding a subject takes time, and I understand that completely. I want students...

...I have always loved science, in particular physics and mathematics and have been lucky enough to share this with others through tutoring. I can help with all levels of math and physics up through graduate level course work. I also can tutor all levels of French as I have taken the French baccalaureat. I started tutoring in high school, everything from math, literature, to French and Latin. I have worked mostly with high school, college...

...interested in and by using flexible lesson plans which allow tutoring sessions to be intriguing explorations instead of just homework help or test prep. My general approach to tutoring uses three main strategies: 1. I focus on identifying student's greatest challenges and addressing those first. 2. I relate the material to the student's life by showing them "real-world" applications or easily observable examples. 3. Whenever possible, I leverage student's existing knowledge and teach widely-applicable problem-solving...
