Award-Winning Physical Chemistry Tutors serving Aurora, CO

...assessing how a student learns and adapting my teaching style to best fit the needs of the student. In this manner a student can learn in a way that seems to come naturally and allows knowledge to flow more seamlessly. Fostering a passion for learning and encouraging growth as a successful student are my main goals as a tutor. Outside of the lab I enjoy exploring what our great state of Colorado has to offer....

...Aspirnaut STEM Program for elementary and middle school students, while working as a Chemistry Teaching Assistant/tutor for undergraduate courses. In the fall of 2017, I will be attending the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine to complete my post-graduate studies. Daughter of a high school algebra and English teacher, I really enjoy tutoring and helping students understand subjects especially in the areas of math, reading, and science. I find it rewarding to share my knowledge...

...at a nearby high school, focusing not only on the academic aspect but on cultivating mutual respect with the students as well. The experience I gained from this position has shown me the underlying tenacity in young men and women to learn if the curriculum is tailored to their interests or presented with a novel perspective. Additionally, my ESL certification has granted me further opportunities to hone my teaching skills and techniques. I enjoy teaching...

...favorite to teach because of the logic found in the subject. I find it fascinating how, in mathematics, topics work towards a unifying theme. One of the traits which I believe makes me a good tutor is my patience. While tutoring I enjoy working through problems repeatedly with students until mastery of the concept is achieved. I strongly believe that every child is capable of learning any subject and it’s the tutor’s duty to employ...

...from CU. When I began tutoring college students in 2000, this method of learning was not as commonly used as today, and so I had to develop my own teaching methods for tutoring in many different situations(one on one, group, online) I also have tutored students from all backgrounds and all skill levels, as well as students with disabilities, (ADHD,dyslexia), and young students in middle and high school. Aside from tutoring, I do occasional work...

...for learning continues as I am currently pursuing a PhD in Systems and Engineering Management. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about Mathematics, Computers, Business, and Continuous Improvement initiatives. In my experience, helping share my knowledge with others has been very rewarding. I am a firm believer in self-improvement, with education leading to an improved quality of life. I aim to challenge and share this passion with my students...

I have several years of tutoring experience in the life sciences including biology, biochemistry, anatomy and physiology at the high school and undergraduate level. I hold a Bachelor's Degree in Sports & Exercise Sciences from the University of Northern Colorado and a Master's Degree in Biomedical Sciences from Regis University.

...look for when a student is struggling. I take the time to get to know each of my students and learn their strengths and their shortcomings. My style of tutoring is to let the student talk me through the problem and when there is a mistake I ask why they made it. If I believe there is a fundamental concept they don't understand I review it and this approach is extremely effective. Knowledge comes from...

...successfully teaching and tutoring high school and college students for 10+ years. I help my students with regular and AP level of Chemistry and Biology courses material and test preparation as well. I also help college students with General and Organic Chemistry courses. My work experience also includes a scientist position in chemistry research lab. With each of my students I use individual approach and apply my knowledge of teaching methods which help them feel...

...my M.S. in Chemistry from Northwestern University, and my B.S. in Chemistry from the University of Rochester. I believe that all students can achieve high marks in chemistry and math once they learn good note-taking skills, organization, logical problem-solving approaches, and other essential study habits. It's my job to facilitate every student's learning of subject material and instill in him or her all those skills which will increase independent learning and personal academic growth.

I've always liked helping people and I think sharing my many, many years of work experience (especially software engineering) allows me to give real-world knowledge to those who thirst for knowledge. Or even to those who just want to pass a test.

I love Chemistry and it is my passion to share with students that I teach, tutor or mentor my enthusiasm for Chemistry. Chemistry is the Central Science and plays a role in all aspects of our life...it provides infrastructure for the modern life. Your success is my success and I would very much like to help my students learn.

...using that strategy because they were encouraged to discover it for themselves and they understand why it works. Ultimately, I enjoy teaching because both the student and I can simultaneously improve in a process that never ceases to make us better. When I'm not teaching, I enjoy pretty much any activity that gets me outside, especially if that outside happens to be in the woods or near the beach (I am from Florida after all...)....

...require a different technique. Having served as a teaching assistant at three different universities, I have experience at connecting with students regardless of the campus, class sizes, and student backgrounds. My biggest strength as a teaching assistant and a lecturer has been my ability to connect with students with diverse backgrounds enough so they feel comfortable approaching me with questions or concerns about the material. My students have a diverse range of educational and economic...

...are required are a high level of expectations as well as the desire and effort to achieve those expectations. When it comes to solving problems, I will always ask the student on how they would solve a particular problem. Their answers can range that they definitely know how to solve it to they have absolutely no idea. I would then guide them along through each problem with the goal to have them understand a correct...

...AP tests, and the MCAT. I sincerely believe that while some of the concepts presented in these subjects and tests seem initially very difficult, they become much less intimidating if you have the confidence and perspective to look at the problems from the right angle. They don't have to be so challenging! I like to connect on students' levels and help them to find that confidence. In my free time I enjoy playing guitar and...

...LSAT. More and more people asked me to tutor their children, so I contacted Varsity tutors to extend my reach to people who did not know me personally. My style is energetic and engaging. As a trial attorney, I routinely have to communicate complex matters to a jury that has no experience in the fields of chemistry, biology and physics. This forces me to adopt an engaging style to ensure they do not tune me...

...different and I enjoy working with individuals to customize a plan that will be the most beneficial and enjoyable for them. Learning should be fun! It develops your ability to critically think about the world around you, which is an invaluable skill that you will use not only in school but for the rest of your life. I specialize in the sciences and math, have graduate level expertise in biological sciences and classroom teaching experience.

...one-on-one setting. In the past, I've been certified to teach chemistry and physics classes by a prestigious test preparation company. I absolutely love teaching mathematics, chemistry and physics. But unfortunately, these are subjects that a lot of students have real difficulty in. I've discovered that I have a knack for explaining difficult mathematical/physical science concepts, so that virtually anyone can understand the material at hand. Real world examples in conjunction with visual aides seem to...

...subjects rely upon. In my experience teaching and tutoring, a mixture of conceptual discussions and problem solving has been most effective for helping struggling students. In addition, I have found that relating chemistry concepts and problems to topics that are familiar in our everyday lives is a great way to make sessions fun and interesting. In my free time, I enjoy playing ultimate frisbee and basketball, and watching football, basketball, and baseball. I also enjoy...
