Award-Winning Organic Chemistry Tutors in Washington DC

...one group of 20-24 Johns Hopkins freshman students per semester. I answered questions and guided students to a greater understanding of chemical principles. Teaching assistants also staffed help sessions for students who need additional help in understanding chemistry concepts. I have great evaluations from my students to show. I have spent several summers doing research with top researchers from researchers/professors from Johns Hopkins University. Research molds the way you think about questions and how to...

...students in all of the prerequisite science courses for their respective school. I have found that the best way to tutor a student is to address each students needs and gain an understanding of their unique thought process; nobody solves a problem the exact same way. With many educational institutions adapting a philosophy of "teaching to the test" rather than an understanding, I feel an individualistic approach is the best way to complement this paradigm....

...B.S. in Biological Sciences and Theology. I've always had a desire to help others learn--in high school I would often help my peers with material when the teachers weren't able to fully explain the material. I tutored high school students for several semesters in college and loved the chance to make learning enjoyable. I've been tutoring for the past few months. I am currently interviewing at medical schools for matriculation in Fall 2016.

...tutor in most K-12 subjects, SSAT and SAT I & II Prep, as well as in College Level Organic and General Chemistry. Working with students and helping them succeed and overcome challenges is a very rewarding experience. I believe learning can be a fun process, and that hard work, dedication, and inspiration can make a huge difference in a student's life. My goal as a tutor is to give my students the ability to feel...

...life. I believe to understand something is to be able to explain it in simpler terms than you yourself learned it. Thus, as a tutor, I consider it my duty to not only pass along knowledge, but to also help the student hone the skills necessary for continued success in future endeavors. Because let's face it, learning is a life long process! In my free time I enjoy running and playing soccer as well as...

...the sciences and those are my favorite subjects to tutor. There is nothing that makes me happier than seeing my students explain a concept that was previously confusing for them. My teaching strategy relies heavily on understanding my students' learning styles and catering tutoring sessions to best fit how my students like to learn. When working through practice problems, I enjoy using the "teach-back" method to enhance repetition and to ensure that my students really...

...of Biology, Chemistry, and Organic chemistry. I am also available for SAT prep, college entrance essays, and other writing and editing needs. During my college career, I tutored both high school and college-age students. I received positive feedback from both my students, who enjoyed my interactive tutoring approach, and my supervisors, who applauded the emphasis I placed on study methods and test-taking strategies. My tutoring mantra is all about setting goals and accomplishing them little...

...Physics. However, my day is never complete until I can share my knowledge with fellow students and scientists. In my experience, the best way to teach math and science is to show students real world examples they can appreciate at any age. By the end of our tutoring sessions, I don't want my students to know rote material; I try to make sure they are able to tell me why it is important and how...

...Physiology and Biophysics. After graduating from my master's program, I began working for AmeriCorps in Washington, DC and was also a teaching assistant for a master's class at the nursing school. As a member of City Year, a partner of AmeriCorps, I was a tutor, mentor, and role model to seventh grade students. After my time in Washington, DC I headed back to Long Island, NY to start medical school. During medical school, I have...

As an undergrad at the University of Minnesota, I was a Biochemistry Teaching Assistant. In that position I helped students in a one-on-one basis as well as ran pre-exam review sessions. I worked as a Lab Assistant in a Genetics Lab throughout my undergrad education. Since graduating, my focus has been in Molecular Biology and infectious disease.... Laid back. Let the student work through the problem and guide them so they come up with the answers themselves.
