As a recent graduate from Cornell University with a degree in biological sciences and someone who plans to attend medical school in the future, my passion and appreciation for the sciences and medicine is something I consider integral to my identity. My favorite subjects to tutor are biology and chemistry as those are the subjects in which I have past teaching experience in the classroom setting. In particular, my teaching style focuses on rephrasing and remodeling initially daunting concepts and information into bite-sized and digestible bits of information that any student can comprehend. I firmly believe that a lot of what slows students down in the learning process is their preconceived notions of course material. My passion for helping students stems from my experiences as an undergraduate where I can remember on countless occasions feeling lost in the material with little direction on how to approach the curriculum. I can think back to the many times I would have benefitted from having someone who could have guided me through stretches of daunting coursework which led me to become a tutor myself. As a teaching assistant, I discovered my passion for helping students manage their way through courses that many considered to be very difficult. Seeing how they reacted to my assistance reminded me why I applied for the position in the first place and motivates me to help students learn more every single day.

I am a graduate of Georgetown University, where I majored in Physics and French. I plan on working towards a graduate degree in Applied Mathematics. I have been teaching and tutoring Math, French, and Physics for more than seven years. In my past experience, I have taught a great variety of students in vastly different settings. From teaching a math class to high school students, to tutoring a four year old in french online, I love the variety of my experiences I have as a tutor. I greatly enjoy seeing the progress that my students make, both in their academic track record and their skills as a student. In my opinion, no one is 'bad' at a certain subject - I'm passionate about finding ways for my students to connect with subjects that they have struggled with in the past. In my free time, I enjoy reading, baking, yoga, hiking, and photography.

Hello! my name is Judah Renshaw founder and head tutor of "ACT like you mean it" tutoring company. I gradated high school early with honors, distinction a 4.6 GPA and am currently in my 3rd year of undergrad working towards a Bachelors in business. Every year of my schooling I have been asked to tutor or otherwise assist my peers academically. I enjoy tutoring any subject as long as I am informed of the topic beforehand. But I most enjoy helping students prepare for and improve their scores on the ACT exam. My most recent students all improved their scores by 5 (composite) points or more! My primary goal is to help each student successfully obtain (and redefine if currently lackluster) their academic goals. At times students need to rediscover their curiosity. I can help them work past frustration to refocus and/or differentiate other blocks to learning. I do not take the responsibility of helping you or child along your/their educational journey lightly. I am open to input and working with guardians/teachers as well!

As a passionate educator with a Bachelor's in Neuroscience from Johns Hopkins University, I have over 5 years of tutoring experience and 1-2 years of classroom teaching. My specialties include AP Biology, AP Chemistry, and Organic Chemistry, as well as the MCAT, where I strive to create a supportive learning environment that fosters curiosity and critical thinking. I believe in tailoring my teaching methods to meet the unique needs of each student, ensuring they not only grasp complex concepts but also build confidence in their abilities. My motivation for tutoring stems from witnessing the transformative power of education; I find joy in helping students achieve their academic goals while instilling a lifelong love for science. Outside the classroom, I enjoy exploring new scientific literature and conducting experiments, which further enriches my tutoring practice.

I earned my undergraduate degree in biochemistry at Brown University and my Ph.D. in immunology at the University of California, Berkeley. I have been teaching both introductory and advanced biology courses at the University of Maryland, College Park for over 10 years. For fun I enjoy reading science fiction, doing crossword puzzles, swing and ballroom dancing, and playing ultimate frisbee.

I graduated from Dartmouth College with a double major, receiving a Bachelor of Arts in both Biochemistry/Molecular Biology and Music. I continued my education at Columbia University and received Master of Arts in Biology. Starting in middle school and continuing through my graduate career, I have tutored students in a wide variety of subjects, but I was most effective at tutoring math and science because of my lifelong love and aptitude for these subjects. Since I am also working towards a career in molecular biology, I use math and science every day, and I can explain real-world applications and uses for these subjects that may not seem obvious. By demonstrating the use of math and science in everyday life, I am able to help interact with the student and increase their interest in a subject in which they may experience difficulty. I also believe that as a tutor, it is my responsibility to engage with the student to help them achieve and even surpass their goals. In my spare time, I am heavily involved with music in New York City, being part of multiple choirs and continuing to play piano. I also enjoy exercising and exploring the city whenever I have the chance.

I have enjoyed tutoring students for over 40 years. I remember my first student was the 7 grade daughter of the college librarian where I work at as an undergraduate at the University of North Alabama. I tutored her in math. I tutored numerous nursing students in chemistry while at graduate school at Vanderbilt University in Nashville where I received my PhD in 1985. I tutored students in science and math during my career as an industrial water treatment chemist. Upon retiring, I decided to continue tutoring part time as it still continues to bring me so much joy to help others suceed in their academic pursuits. I am the chemistry tutor at the tutor center at our local community college.

Applied knowledge is wisdom. One exam doesn't determine your future. You can always perform better next time or find a field that aligns with your strengths

I am a person who genuinely enjoys both writing and chemistry (especially organic). To most people, this seems like an odd combination but for me it's natural. I have been able to leverage both of these skills in order to obtain a PhD in organic chemistry. Also, I have written a couple of articles about chemistry on Medium. Understandably, some students struggle in these areas and I would like to help. When I am working with students, I like to be flexible with my teaching approach. During our first session, the student and I will set goals for our time together and we will discuss your learning style. In the subsequent sessions, student and I will work together to develop a learning environment that will help you Education: - Ph.D. in Organic Chemistry from the University of Notre Dame (2014) - B.S. in Biochemistry from Xavier University of Louisiana (2008) Experience: 1. 5 years working as a lecture teaching assistant for general chemistry I and organic chemistry I and II at the University of Notre Dame 2. 1 year experience tutoring a high school student in chemistry (1 hour per week) 3. 6 years experience in helping undergraduate students understand organic chemistry and biology

Hi! My name is Abdullah. I am a University of Georgia Biology and Psychology double major graduate, and an incoming resident physician. My personal tutoring philosophy is trying my best to create a collaborative learning environment, and making a conscious effort to tailor the educational process to personal need of each student. I tutored Organic Chemistry, General Chemistry, and Spanish for the UGA department of academic enhancement for 2 and a half years until I graduated. I have also tutored MCAT, and provide guidance for the entire premedical application process. I look forward to working with you :)!
