Award-Winning Organic Chemistry Tutors in St. Louis, MO

...have found it is often an integral part of truly mastering a topic. My tutoring approach takes a hands-on style that lets students work through problems with assistance first, and then on their own. This style allows the student to become confident in his/her knowledge of the material and face new problems with that same confidence. Each student is different and I do my best to quickly learn what works best for their learning style,...

...the University of Alaska Anchorage with a double major in Psychology and Natural Science and minors in Communication, Mathematics, and Chemistry.

I have also been a department tutor for the chemistry department at UAA aw well as...

...Pre-Med student with any students interested in going to medical school. I have had several volunteer tutoring experiences: my first was at the Kingdom House after-school program, and the second at Midtown Catholic Charities tutoring service. I loved my time with these two programs because I was able to help K-8th graders with their task of learning fundamental concepts that would help them acquire new knowledge for the rest of their lives. I've also had...

...did not require a community service component. I believe it is important to serve other people as an organization, so I helped to reinitiate a tutoring program between our team and a local nearby elementary school. In this program, athletes from our team go to the school for an hour a week to offer help in reading or math. The teachers and athletes all responded positively to the experience and the mentoring program is continuing...

My goals is to help my student think and gain confidence in what they do and to be passionate about their work and feel proud of their achievements. My role will be to empower my students to achieve things they did not think possible.

...I came across Varsity Tutors. My strongest subjects include English, ACT, DAT, Algebra,and Biology. I enjoy tutoring these subjects because a lot of progress can be made in them by simply looking at different strategies to approaching the subject material. I have come to understand that a great tutor is someone who can understand how a particular student learns and who works to explain the concept in a manner that encourages learning rather than tedious...

...learned to think outside of the box to help students. Some of the creative ways I have tutored include flashcard games, board races, and creating diagrams and worksheets for students who struggle to learn in a traditional setting. My next experience with students was during my graduate school work. From the first day, I was awarded a teaching assistantship. This meant that I taught freshmen general chemistry and senior level instrumentation. I loved this position....

I am a senior at Washington University in St. Louis studying Biochemistry and Spanish, and I will start medical school this upcoming year.

I have been tutoring since my junior year of undergrad in multiple areas such as Algebra, Physics, but most predominantly Chemistry and Organic Chemistry. My background is mainly in Chemistry, and Organic Chemistry is my favorite subject to tutor and instruct. The knowledge of knowing how to take the main ingredient in acne cream and changing it into aspirin is...

However, I care more about my students. This means that I strive to help my students in ways besides simply understanding the...

...teaching, having served as a teaching assistant during my time in Washington University in Organic Chemistry and as a tutor in Organic Chemistry and Biology. I have a strong background in the basic sciences and can provide a solid foundation in Biology, Chemistry and Physics. I believe strongly in a holistic approach to teaching because in my experience students are far more willing to learn when seemingly arcane subjects can be tied into their day...

...Washington DC, I also worked for Kaplan to prepare students for the MCAT. Washington University School of Medicine is where I received a Masters degree in Immunology.

My teaching style centers around the student mastering basic principles and then learning to combine and apply those basic principles to answer questions that, at first glance, appear far more complex than they actually are. This is particularly useful in timed testing situations such as the MCAT and ACT, when the chances of remembering a specific example of a complicated problem are slim. I know from experience the skills and concepts necessary...
