I look forward to see my students get from the point of being lost to the uh-huh moment. I specialize in math based subjects where I enjoy to see how simple math and in some cases - a little complex :) can solve world problems from economics to engineering , etc. I believe that once students realize the application of math in real life, they will strive to become excellent in the subject.

...level teaching experience in Chemistry, Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry. I love tutoring people because it helps keep key concepts fresh in my head. Not everything you learn in school will be used, but some of it will be! And you don't know which parts until much much later. I focus on imparting understanding to my students. I detest rote memorization. Conceptual understanding will help you ace tests in this course and the ones after it!

...have been tutored a lot throughout my schooling and I am excited to return the favor. I recently graduated with a bachelors in Cell and Molecular Biology with a minor in Biochemistry. I love to tutor biology, it is so fascinating to learn about. I am constantly learning more and am amazed by the questions students ask me that urge me to keep learning. I also enjoy tutoring en Espanol which I learned from my...

...believe every student can reach their full potential with the right assistance. I deeply care if the students really understand the materials or new concepts, and always encourage them to not give up. I have taken advanced level science classes such as genetics, organic chemistry, etc. Also, I have taken an educational course such as Learning across Lifespan and Educational Psychology. These different experiences shape me to become a well-equipped person to help others.

...of maintaining success in the classroom. Attending a small college allowed my passion for biology and chemistry to flourish through the close relationships I made with my peers and professors. I bring this hands-on approach I was given in my undergrad to my students by pinpointing their exact needs to ensure material is not just memorized, but understood. Outside of my science pursuits I enjoy reading, hiking, and exploring my city of Chicago.

...is often understated, and in my own experience, it has been my mentors who have lifted me up and inspired me to work harder, learn from my failures, and believe in myself. I hope to be a guiding presence in the life of my students, helping them achieve their goals while developing their academic prowess. I earned my B.S in Molecular, Cell, Developmental Biology from the University of California, Santa Cruz, my M.S in Stem...

...I was born in Caracas, Venezuela and moved to Miami, FL at a young age. I attended college for two years before transferring to the University of Michigan- Ann Arbor where I earned my B.S. in Biomolecular Science. I am currently a high school chemistry teacher in the city of Chicago. I love to help others and tutoring is a way to have a small impact on such an important aspect of society, education.

...Biology, graduating Magna Cum Laude. I am working as an Emergency Department Technician while I prepare to go to graduate school to become a Physician Assistant. I love to learn and enjoy helping others find the satisfaction in growing and achieving their goals through learning. I believe it's important to learn the student's preferred learning style (visual/tactile/auditory) and adjusting the material to match the style. One's mind, once stretched by a new idea, never regains...

...a postdoctoral research assistant in Chicago with a PhD in Chemistry/Chemistry Education Research from the University of Illinois at Chicago. I have enjoyed teaching at the college level as a TA in many chemistry courses and have privately tutored high school chemistry, algebra, geometry, physics, financial literacy, and test prep (ACT, SAT, SAT Chemistry Subject Test). When I am not conducting research or tutoring, you can find me being a mentor for Science Club at...

...My goal as a tutor is to ensure that when students leave my sessions, they see that neither of these perceptions is accurate. Specifically, I stress chemistry's role in and relatability to both their real lives and their future science classes and careers. To do this, I focus on the students' retention and understanding of the material by presenting it in a variety of formats and by using numerous real world examples. When I'm not...

I was introduced to VT by a friend. I love interacting with students and share my knowledge with them, watch them learn subjects and succeed. I enjoy the results that we get out of our shared effort.

...been in basic science for 5+ doing bench top biochemistry, physics, and practical engineering. My skillset makes no sense, I can program in python, and plan and execute ELISA assays on frozen mouse tumors, and explain to you what nucleophile is! I am employed full-time with a GREAT job in science, but I'm looking to make extra money. I was a Tutor in college for a couple of years working with high school and college...

...and your confidence! My philosophy in tutoring is to eliminate fear through consistency. As an alumnus of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, majoring in Molecular and Cellular Biology has exposed me to a rigorous curriculum that has prepared me to take on the challenges most young students have academically.
