I'm dedicated, energetic and creative, I'm fluent in both...

...software to display images, plus a little bit of Chemistry and Biology for understanding what was happening as we took images. During my time at UNC I also had the opportunity to work with Habitat for Humanity, both building homes and tutoring the children who lived in the neighborhoods we were working in. It was incredibly rewarding to work with the same students for multiple years and watch them develop, both as students and people....

...communication and listening skills, and high level of responsibility. I supervised one group of 20-24 Johns Hopkins freshman students per semester. I answered questions and guided students to a greater understanding of chemical principles. Teaching assistants also staffed help sessions for students who need additional help in understanding chemistry concepts. I have great evaluations from my students to show. I have spent several summers doing research with top researchers from researchers/professors from Johns Hopkins University....

...I believe in celebrating victories, no matter how small, and in learning from mistakes and weaknesses with an optimistic eye. I enjoy tutoring math the most, not only because I find the subject matter itself fun and exciting, but also because I love seeing that moment on a students face when a problem clicks or when he or she figures out an answer his- or herself. Outside of class, I enjoy reading, movies, volleyball, watching...

I earned my undergraduate degree in biochemistry at Brown University and my Ph.D. in immunology at the University of California, Berkeley. I have been teaching both introductory and advanced biology courses at the University of Maryland, College Park for over 10 years. For fun I enjoy reading science fiction, doing crossword puzzles, swing and ballroom dancing, and playing ultimate frisbee.... I try to bring a broad perspective to my teaching. If one approach doesn't click, then...

...learn, while also being open to new approaches, can make science great fun to learn! One of the great things about science, in fact, is that there are a hundred different resources that will teach you the same material a hundred different ways. Knowing what works best for you, and why, will make mastering material painless and even fun. Outside of science, I enjoy running, traveling, and volunteering. I have had a chance to hike...

...by using a more fundamental approach to understanding chemistry the subject can not only become accessible but even enjoyable. As a recent graduate from Wake Forest university, a top 25 ranked university, I can hope to help. During my time at Wake Forest University, I have helped many students as a member of a tutoring organization led by a doctorate of chemical teaching. Under his direction and through my experiences, I have learned techniques for...

I recently completed a degree in Biochemistry at St. Mary's college of Maryland and in the Fall I will be starting a PhD in Neuroscience at Vanderbilt University. I have spent 3 years in different research labs, doing work ranging from behavioral neuroscience to synthetic medicinal chemistry. My work has been presented at national conferences in both neuroscience and chemistry.

Hi, I'm Claudia! I love using the outdoors as a classroom and an opportunity for exploration and expression. I've spent the last several years working with all age groups, from toddlers to college freshmen, to make learning as fun as it is important. Ask me about mollusks or the American South (or anything really)!

...classes and tutor individuals. For me, working with students was one of the most enjoyable parts of graduate school, which is why I'm continuing to tutor even as I branch out into other areas of interest. While I am comfortable working with students in a variety of areas, I particularly enjoy tutoring students in organic chemistry. Many students find organic chemistry daunting, but it can really be fun! However, when you are struggling with any...

...learns differently so I tailor my lessons to my students' needs and goals. Especially in subjects like organic chemistry, where students often feel overwhelmed, I am able to use molecular models to explain concepts like stereochemistry in more visual ways than are used in traditional instruction. I am passionate about my students mastering the concepts and falling in love with science. I bring a lot of fun and perspective on study habits and skills that...

...am able to tutor in all of the sciences, I am most passionate about biology. In the past, I tutored high school students in heart physiology, and I have experience working in person and virtually with children aged 11, 13, 14, and 16 as a summer camp counselor for four summers. I believe strongly in the power of education to improve people's lives, and I love learning for the sake of learning.

...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. There I worked with sophomores on whatever trouble spots they were having in their classes. After college I was hired as live-in tutor for a homeschooling family with two high school age children. This was an incredible position. I worked with them on Literature,...
