I am a Mechanical Engineer. At the moment though, I have decided to change directions and pursue a career in medicine. As I go to school part time and prepare for my MCAT, I am tutoring physics, mathematics, biology, and chemistry, here at Varsity Tutors with my spare time.

I am an undergraduate at Vanderbilt University, majoring in Biochemistry and the Communication of Science and Technology. My aspirations include continuing my education in medical school and eventually becoming a pediatrician/pediatric cardiologist. My passion is STEM education, but I also really enjoy tutoring/instructing in the fields of Latin and test prep (including the ACT and AP exams). I used to work for Fiveable, an AP test prep company, which is where I discovered my passion for working...More

I am a graduate from Duke University with a B.S. in Neuroscience and a minor in Chemistry. As a neuroscience major, my focus was on cognitive neuroscience and, particularly, in using electroencephalography (EEG) to understand how visual distractors interfere with ongoing brain processes associated with cognitive performance. My current work at the Clinical and Translational Neuroscience Branch and Dynamic Imaging Core of the NIMH involves leveraging multiple brain imaging modalities (e.g., funct...More

I am a graduate of Providence College with a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology. Upon graduation, I worked in hospital administration until beginning my pursuit of a Master of Science in Medical Science through the Drexel University College of Medicine. I have been tutoring middle school, high school and college students in Chicago through Varsity Tutors since November 2014. My own passion for math and science and my academic history of them has resulted in a focus in tutoring within these su...More

I am attending graduate school at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign to receive my PhD in Analytical Chemistry. Someday I want to work for a biotech or pharmaceutical company. My tutoring experience has been unique because I have tutored students ranging from second grade to senior year college students where I primarily cover STEM (Science, Math, Engineering, and Technology) concepts. Recently, I have been a TA in chemistry and biology college level courses. My hands on experience has ...More

I am embarking on the challenging journey of earning my MA in Conflict Resolution from the University of Georgetown. During and after my time at the University of Florida, I worked not only as a tutor, but also as an EMT-Paramedic, a lifeguard, a martial arts instructor, and a swim instructor. I have been fortunate enough to travel to several different countries in Central America, South America, Africa, and the Caribbean. I have done medical aid work in both Nicaragua and Haiti. My teaching exp...More

I am comfortable tutoring a broad range of topics in the sciences and math for standardized exams. I feel most confident with organic chemistry since I have helped many struggling or confused students map out the reactions and mechanisms, develop study habits, and ace their exams. As an instructor, my aim is to focus on teaching concepts and fundamental principles since this approach builds understanding and allows students to tackle any problems they face.

I am a chemist from Germany and got married in Dallas in 2019. It was a big step and a lot of change. Sometimes the thought about it overwhelmed me but I knew: If I want to marry this woman, I have to start with small steps to be prepared for this "one big step". Similar to exams in school. You might be overwhelmed thinking about your next or final exams. But here is the deal: Just do it. Let us learn together!

I am good at explaining and breaking things down in multiple ways -- words, diagrams, analogies -- to make concepts clear. There are very few things I cannot explain or articulate.

I am a recent college graduate (biology major) who has always had a talent for math and science, as well as a reputation for being able to explain concepts clearly to students. I have plenty of tutoring experience and have done well for everyone I have tutored thus far. Here are some of my achievements in the math and science department: I have scored in the top 10% in Chemistry I in the New Jersey Science League (NJSL) and first place in the state in Biology II; was a semi-finalist in the Unite...More
