I began tutoring nine years ago as an afterschool and weekend math and science tutor for high schoolers through a federally funded Educational Talent Search program and have tutored students ranging from middle school through university since then. I have also been a department tutor for the chemistry department at UAA aw well as a private tutor in math, biology, general chemistry, and organic chemistry. When I am not working or studying, I...

...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 memorization. I believe I am aptly capable of doing so. Outside of my academic endeavors, I enjoy playing basketball and I am a DJ. I look forward to working with you to achieve and surpass your goals!... I have found that encouraging the student to push themselves past their comfort zone, and working together, approaching the subject as something beatable, gives the student the confidence they need to succeed.

...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 some experience in helping classmates with subjects such as Organic Chemistry and Physical Chemistry. I strongly believe in the idea that, if a tutee does not understand a concept, it is my fault for not having conveyed the...

I have a passion for everything Chemistry and Biology related, but those are not my only passions. I am a huge St. Louis sports fan (Go Cards, Blues, and sometimes Rams!). I try and stay active playing intramural softball, soccer and floor hockey in college. I am also somewhat adventurous and love to go hiking...

...I am on the pre-veterinary track and am also a chemistry major. I love math and science and I truly enjoy sharing these passions with others. I have tutored at a local middle school for 2 years and have worked as a data analyst at a successful tutoring company in Connecticut. I hope to become a chemistry mentor during my junior year at university. This summer I will be working at a small animal hospital...

My education and work experience has been in organic chemistry and biochemistry. My volunteer work has included Science Olympiad and robotics. I have always enjoyed teaching, and helping students to get excited about science. My experiences with my own childrens' learning issues (ADD, autism) have made me look into better ways to present material for different learning styles.

...with a focus on French and Spanish, and my minor was Biology. While I love learning foreign languages, I am also very passionate about the natural sciences, specifically Biology, Physics, and Chemistry. During my undergraduate studies, I spent an extensive period of time in the Chemistry department as a teaching assistant, working with students in the laboratory and the classroom to improve both practical and conceptual knowledge of the course material. It is important for...

...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 to day life and their relevance concretely demonstrated. I delight in finding and applying these connections, and I look forward to teaching others to find them as well. In my free time I enjoy playing badminton and bicycling....

...biotechnology group where I made several breakthroughs that lead to improved corn and soybean seed products for the company. I have also worked in the genomics department and held a data mining role for several years. After leaving Monsanto, I have worked as a contract employee for several startup companies involved in renewable energy projects (green fuels from algae), bacterial based crop growth enhancers and in new oil seed crop development. I began tutoring to...

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.

...of looking for nursing programs and acquiring a second Bachelor's degree in Nursing. Currently the subjects I am tutoring are science-related - Chemistry, Microbiology, and Anatomy & Physiology to name a few. Because of my current endeavors in the medical field, these subjects are fresh! I am able to explain them to students in a fluent and straightforward way to make our sessions enjoyable and successful. A little more info about myself: I really love...

I enjoy helping people understand material that they struggle with on their own. Each individual learns differently and there are multiple ways for people to solve a problem. With this in mind I am sure that once we understand the basic concepts and build a solid foundation it is possible to to build from there and understand the concept at hand and you will be able to understand the subject matter at hand. ... My teaching philosophy is that each student requires an individual lesson plan that allows them to create a strong foundation in order to learn topics that they struggle with.

...time to help me improve both my understanding of concepts and my scores on examinations. For me, teaching is about giving back; being able to help others and see the "aha" moment when a student finally understands something is an incredibly rewarding experience. This is why I strive to help students master concepts not only at a sufficient level to score well on exams, but to be able to teach others as well. I really...

I love helping people understand material that they have trouble working through on their own.

Hi, I'm a recent graduate of Washington University in St. Louis with experience tutoring science and mathematics. Specifically, I'm proficient in teaching Chemistry, Biology, Organic Chemistry, and Biochemistry in addition to elementary and secondary mathematics. I make an effort to prioritize and teach students about the underlying logic behind concepts and questions so that they may thoroughly understand the concept and interdisciplinary connections to other topics. Happy to help any way I can!

I am an adjunct at a local university with a Ph.D. in chemistry. I have been tutoring for quite a few years as well. Experience shows me the most common places students have trouble, and what often works to help them. The advantage of tutoring is being able to use an individual approach for a specific student. I like to see the positive results students get, and look forward to building careers together.

...skills. I think my favorite subject to tutor would be biology, where I am personally most knowledgeable and for which I have a passion because of the amazing feats of life all around us.

From there, every kind of material can be...
