Award-Winning Organic Chemistry Tutors serving Newark, NJ

...am currently a senior Biochemistry and Molecular Biology and Philosophy major at Wittenberg University. I enjoy the exchange of learning and that's why I decided to become a tutor. I have been a tutor since high school and I continued during college. I have taught high school level math, biology, chemistry and physics and college level chemistry. I connect with my students and help them to gain a better understanding of the subject matter. I...

...I have scored in the top 10% in Chemistry I in the New Jersey Science League (NJSL) and first place in the state in Biology II; was a semi-finalist in the United States of America Biology Olympiad (USABO) and have qualified for the United States of America Mathematical Olypiad (USAMO). I have also spent some summers working at a math camp with 5th-8th graders at the Bergen County Academies, where I went to high school.

...tutoring, I enjoy reading, binge-watching shows on Netflix, and learning how to cook. I'm also a huge music nerd; I love finding new artists and I play the drums myself. My teaching philosophy is heavily influenced by my engineering education. I rely on a Socratic, discussion-based method where I encourage my students to not only work through problems but to explain them back to me, to help build confidence in their own understanding of the...

...content review. For my teaching style, I like to teach students how to best approach and understand complex concepts with confidence so that they will build up the skill set required to solve and understand problems effortlessly.

In addition, I can also help with the AP level classes in Chemistry, Physics, Calculus, and Statistics, all of which I have since taken more advanced college classes for. I am very skilled in essay editing and organization as well. Students who work with me will find me demanding but fair, honest but kind, and productive but lighthearted and fun. I work...

...my degrees in both biology and Spanish. I was hired by the university to tutor organic chemistry, which I did for two years. I also worked as a teacher’s assistant (TA) for a general chemistry class. I tutored biology and Spanish at the university on the side for my entire stay. I am very personable and easy to talk to. I am also very patient and believe that everyone has the capability to conquer any...

...of us are visual learners so I use visuals and everyday life examples. I have a tool box of props such as models and flash cards to help you accomplish this. Once you have mastered the fundamentals, you can apply this knowledge to problem solving. I have study guides and sample tests for AP and SAT 2 Exams. (I also have copies of nearly every Physics and Chemistry text book used in New Jersey.) There...

...working with kids with a variety of disabilities. Some of the kids I've worked with are non-verbal and non-mobile, others simply require a detailed schedule to keep them focused. Regardless of what the kid needs, I'm prepared to work with the family to make sure they achieve their goals. Finally, I attended a Jewish day school for most of my life, where in addition to regular courses, I studied Hebrew and Judaic studies. I can...

...real-world examples, making learning more engaging and relatable for students! I have been a camp counselor for over 4 years, working with kids from ages 8-15, so I understand how to communicate with a student to make them feel heard, but also understood, which is such an important part of tutoring work. I love to teach and have a high level of interest in anything STEM-related, specifically in the fields of Chemistry and Math. In...

I have a BA in Chemistry from Yeshiva University and recently finished an MA in Chemistry from Columbia University. I was a TA for organic chemistry lab/lecture and have done a bunch of other tutoring as well. Obviously chemistry rocks, but I also enjoy tutoring SAT and GRE math!... I'd figure out our end goal, and then outline a plan to get there.... I'd break it down into smaller pieces or use analogies, but sometimes just...

...friend, but also as a way for me to come to a further understanding of material that I knew would come up again in college or future. I have always found that I learn the most when teaching or, at least, speaking aloud. One of the things I love about being a tutor is that it really is a two-way street. I get to not only expand my knowledge and hear a student's thoughts, but...

...do something that I have not yet achieved. I believe it is this drive that allows me to pursue my passions, both academically and socially, and to be successful in both. I find that my greatest happiness comes in the form of little victories such as a good grade on an exam, or making a friend laugh! Its because of this that I really slow down and try to appreciate every passing moment because I...

...am a rising senior at Columbia University, majoring in chemistry on the pre-med track. I have been an organic chemistry lab and general chemistry lab TA for the past 4 semesters, and will continue into my senior year. I enjoy working with students of all ages in different academic materials. I also have experience teaching dance to younger children in my home town. When I'm not studying, I enjoy dancing, playing piano, and exploring new...

...am a Junior studying biology and philosophy at NYU College of Arts and Sciences. I have always been interested in a fundamental understanding of how things work and my place in it and these two subjects are how I frame that understanding. I love teaching people new things and I hope to get the chance to help people in the process. I have lived in New York most of my life and attended Stuyvesant High...

...material. Additionally, I believe that any environment conducive to learning must also be enriched with humor as a method for education. The possibility to relate humor to difficult math and science problems is an essential way to reduce the stress-producing hormones, cortisol and epinephrine. Providing students with a comfortable environment will ultimately encourage them to embrace learning as a fun and rewarding experience. After all, a successful tutor is not just one who provides a...

...also have a passion for Biology and Chemistry and after taking Organic Chemistry, my appreciation for these subjects has grown immensely.

Extremely innovative and possess hands-on experience with teamwork and management, as well as skills in communications. Brings a commitment to growing and learning, a passion...

...that tutoring is a very underestimated supplemental tool that should be more seriously considered if a student is having trouble grasping the concept. A fair and adaptive 1-on-1 tutoring method helps students to understand the material on their own, which is ultimately the goal of any education. When I am not tutoring, I am either responding as an EMT or firefighter for my fire department or playing basketball, volleyball, football, or rugby. If I am...

...In teaching, I take an empathetic approach to learning. As a former student, I know firsthand that the expertise of the teacher does not always correlate with that teacher's effectiveness working with students. Because my teaching is based on years of real-world experience tutoring students, I know that the "textbook" way of explaining things does not work for every student. As such, I view every student uniquely and create a unique tutoring approach based on...

...with any questions that come up prior to an exam. I tutor many science subjects, including chemistry, biology, and mathematics. My favorite subjects to tutor are chemistry and biology, as they relate most closely to my own area of study, which allows me to use my own knowledge of real world applications of the material to increase the student's interest in a given topic. In my free time, I enjoy playing and watching soccer, playing...
