...amazing opportunities academically mentoring matriculating first-year students, virtually tutoring elementary kids in math, working with various students as the president of a community-based honor society, and teaching subject matter concepts as a lab assistant for analytical chemistry biochemistry labs. As a tutor, I try to tie in as many real-world examples to make confusing topics more manageable and applicable to everyday life. I like teaching challenging topics in many different ways until the student can...

...the most success in first reviewing basic concepts to assess and address where they are having difficulty, followed by continuous problem-solving to reinforce the concepts and strategies until they become second nature. Like the subjects that I teach, I believe that education is an ongoing and ever-growing component that is necessary for a happy and fulfilling life, and that there is always something new to learn each and every day. In my spare time, I...

...grade points). As a graduate student, I have mentored over a dozen undergraduate students individually in their research, academics, career planning, and time/workflow management. Alongside my scientific career I have pursued an interest in business, leading to my pending employment as a Management Consultant. I took a full year of Management Science coursework at MIT's Sloan School of Management, including Microeconomics, Marketing, and Competitive Strategy. I applied that education to consulting engagement both freelance and...

...beneficial for me (with reinforcing my knowledge, learning a topic I'm unfamiliar, and/or improving my teaching abilities). One of my goals as a tutor for Varsity Tutors is to teach subjects I'm passionate about, such as chemistry, to students who are interested in the topic but need some extra help. I have had wonderful tutors in the past help me in various subjects and believe I'm now at a point to help others better understand...

...science industry. I have been tutoring for the past 9 years. I tutor math and science at any grade level. My favorite subject to tutor is math because I love helping my students solve problems that they previously thought they couldn't solve. I believe that anyone can succeed if they put in enough time and effort. We all learn differently and I love adapting my tutoring strategies to meet each student's individual needs and strengths.

...State who attained his Bachelor's of Science in Chemistry from Union College. I went on to earn his Master's of Science in Chemistry specializing in Organic Chemistry. While working in various chemistry labs, I have been involved in research on antitumor agents as well as antibacterial agents. I have also instructed students on the use of proper laboratory techniques. Outside of the lab, I try to enjoy ice hockey any way I can.

...what they need. I believe that understanding why a solution works is much more important than simply memorizing. Earning my master's degree in education and becoming a teacher was my mid-life crisis. Before that, I worked in industry as a chemical engineer and then a project manager for many years after earning my Bachelor of Science at Cornell University. While I tutor a range of subjects, my favorites are chemistry and physics because I think...

...physics, and mathematics. As an engineer, my favorite subjects to study are High School to College Mathematics as well as the Sciences (Physics, Chemisty, Biology) because it gives the mind a great workout! I am a generally upbeat and motivated individual which is essentially translated to my tutoring strategies; if you can somehow make the subject engaging, the more chances the student will want to learn the material! I enjoy that "A-ha!" moment when the...

...is the ability to convey difficult topics in a tangible, easy-to-understand manner. That is a skill I possess in spades. I have the drive necessary in order to make sure that each student I work with gains a mastery over their subjects, and always try to use real-world examples in order to ensure that my students are able to understand even more complex concepts. I am both patient and eager to help each of my...

Teaching is my passion. When I am not tutoring for Varsity Tutors, I work in medical research. I love the idea of helping patients feel better and especially kids. If I had to say something about my outlook, it is that I am thankful for what I do, privileged to be part of so many lives, and hopeful that my skills will make a difference.

I am a recent graduate from Washington University in St. Louis with a bachelor's in cognitive neuroscience. I have been accepted to medical school and will be starting next fall. In other words, I've had my share of standardized testing. I hope to make life easier for students struggling to overcome these hurdles, and maybe spark some enjoyment of learning along the way!

...interests is education. I worked with preschoolers for a full year in college through an AmeriCorps literacy program in low-income preschools. Later, I worked as a teaching assistant for five semesters (three as an undergraduate, and two as a graduate student), teaching biology, chemistry, and environmental science. Most recently, I worked at a local tutoring center with students ages 7-16, tutoring reading/writing, English, and math. I have also worked with several high school and undergraduate...

...Cancer Research. My current project is focused on developing immunotherapies to treat early stage tumors. Both in the classroom and in lab, I have always been more than willing to help others with their assignments or troubleshooting an equipment problem. On top of my scientific pursuits, I have immersed myself in the worlds of classical Latin and Spanish. The beauty of language and its power are so wonderful. I am extremely passionate about biology, chemistry,...

I'm a chemical engineering student at UMass Lowell entering my senior year. I've been inducted into the chemical engineer honor society Omega Chi Epsilon this past semester, and have been serving as its secretary since.

...for over 3 years in General Chemistry I & II, Organic Chemistry I & II, and more. While I tutor a range of subjects, I am most passionate about all chemistry, mathematics, and helping students prepare for their Dental Admission Test (DAT) to attend dental school! I firmly believe that a teacher or professor can make or break the learning experience for students, and I have been fortunate enough to have learned from incredible professors....

...major in Biology and Computer Science. I am fascinated by mathematics, computer science, biology, and the intersection between the three. I am passionate about breaking down complex concepts in these subjects to help students discover that same fascination, and watching them improve and gain confidence in their academics.
