Award-Winning Organic Chemistry Tutors serving Newton, MA

...a rising senior at the University of Maryland and am studying biology. I have spent time tutoring second graders in English and math and have also worked with children as a camp counselor for the past 5 summers. I am able to tutor for many subjects but I am strongest in math for elementary and middle school and biology. I really enjoy working with children and hope to work with them in my future career.

...holistic background to education. I have loved the experience of tutoring students from all age groups. I mentored high school students in the disciplines of chemistry and physics, middle school children, and college students in the discipline of General Biology. Tutoring is very dear and near to my heart as I have in my journey been blessed with amazing teachers who have helped me along the way to become better. Through tutoring, I have been...

I have always had a knack for seeing multiple solutions to a given problem (even receiving a little gag award for our fifth grade graduation, titled: "I have a better way to do that" award). In addition to the natural joy I get from tutoring, I also enjoy solving the puzzle of determining which solution method matches best with how each student learns and thinks.

...out. I now am a first-year student at Tufts University School of Dental Medicine. Throughout my undergrad years, I have tutored for over 3 years in General Chemistry I & II, Organic Chemistry I & II, and more. While I tutor a range of subjects, I am most passionate about all chemistry, mathematics, and helping students prepare for their Dental Admission Test (DAT) to attend dental school! I firmly believe that a teacher or professor...

I am a Biology and Biochemistry double major in my senior year of undergrad. I have worked as a teaching assistant in high school, and also as a peer-led team learning leader in college. I think that everyone can strive and achieve the goals they set for themselves, even if they require a tutor to do so. I would like to be a tutor who leads my students to the success that they desire.

I'm a recent PhD graduate in Bioengineering in the Boston area. My thesis involved nanoparticles and bacterial infections, but as a biomedical engineer I've had training in circuits, mechanics, some programming, chemistry and biology. Tutoring for me is a collaborative effort, following a problem-based learning with questions that will lead the student towards the answer they're looking for while providing a well-rounded understanding of why and how that answer works.

I graduated with a B.S. and M.S. in Molecular and Cellular Biology from Johns Hopkins University (GPA 4.0). I worked as a peer-learning session leader for Genetics and Physics undergraduate courses. I was also a TA for General Biology. I recently took the MCAT and scored in the 100th percentile. I look forward to using my experience, both on the exam and in teaching, to help you substantially increase your performance and reach your potential.

...find that tutoring is very rewarding. My favorite moment is when I see the "light bulb" showing that a student understands what they need. I believe that understanding why a solution works is much more important than simply memorizing. Earning my master's degree in education and becoming a teacher was my mid-life crisis. Before that, I worked in industry as a chemical engineer and then a project manager for many years after earning my Bachelor...

...State who attained his Bachelor's of Science in Chemistry from Union College. I went on to earn his Master's of Science in Chemistry specializing in Organic Chemistry. While working in various chemistry labs, I have been involved in research on antitumor agents as well as antibacterial agents. I have also instructed students on the use of proper laboratory techniques. Outside of the lab, I try to enjoy ice hockey any way I can.

Background is in organometallic synthetic chemistry. Recently received B.S. in Chemistry from Loyola University Chicago. Pursuing PhD in Chemistry this fall at the University of Vermont. Interested in tutoring students in Chemistry or Math. Previous experience taking the GRE (general and subject test) as well as the ACT. Passionate about creating a comfortable atmosphere where the student feels open enough to discuss any difficulties and establish the right connections to succeed in the future.

...and I to work together to achieve their learning goals. I started tutoring in undergrad at Wheaton College in Massachusetts, where I graduated with a B.A. in Biochemistry. At Wheaton, I developed the philosophy that learning should be fun. In my tutoring sessions I like to take time to get to know the student before we jump into the material. Even as we work through the session, it is not uncommon to joke around and...

...groups across a broad range of subjects (math, science, writing, grammar) and have served as a teaching assistant in both mathematics and biology. To me, meaningful and productive learning begins with connection; I enjoy getting to know my students and seek to foster a comfortable, low-stress environment in which we can work together to capitalize upon strengths and interests, identify challenges, and explore a variety of strategies to maximize learning outcomes and performance. I get...

Hi! I am Thomas, I currently attend Harvard Medical School and have a strong passion for both science and teaching. I have quite a lot of experience tutoring at various levels (elementary- graduate school) and feel very confident I can get you performing at your true potential and scoring at your goal test scores!

...but rewarding processes. I am passionate about creating a space that allows students to truly grasp concepts, since this is key in building confidence. I am concerned not just with my students understanding why an answer is right, but why the other answers are wrong. I have been a tutor for the ACT for 4 years and have seen immense improvements in each student I work with. Additionally, I recently wrapped up my own MCAT...

...as a physician assistant. I fell in love with biology, chemistry, anatomy, and physiology, and have been tutoring those subjects ever since. It has been a varied, rewarding experience, ranging in context from private sessions to group workshops to the hectic environment of a busy college learning center. Through it all, I've been able to hone my teaching craft, and also develop an appreciation for working with people to help them achieve their goals. Being...

...as well as test prep. I've been teaching in some capacity since I was in high school; first tutoring peers in math and science through National Honor Society, then providing more informal one-on-one help to fellow students at MIT. I've also worked extensively teaching swim lessons for the past five years, particularly to beginners. Both in and out of the pool, I believe that a good lesson is one where the student is doing the...

...grave importance of instilling scientific knowledge in our future generations, so it is my goal to help students overcome any struggles or intimidation of the subject. I aim to do this by encouraging the same interest and curiosity in the subject that has lead me to pursue a career in biology. I believe that the key to conquering all things science is to be curious about the world around us and how it all works.

I am a driven and passionate learner myself, currently pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Biology and Spanish at Clark University. While I tutor many subjects, I have extended expertise in biology, Spanish, and chemistry. I hope to convey not only knowledge, but an excitement for learning itself to my students.
