I love interacting with them, helping them understand the content of the course. In the time left after tutoring, I enjoy doing yoga, reading or taking...

...my third college degree - a post-baccalaureate degree in computer science. My previous degrees are in engineering and architecture. I will soon have a decade of experience with professors, homework, and tests. And I've been tutoring since the beginning of my college career. I teach for the same reason that I learn - I enjoy it. Every student learns differently, and so everyone I teach pushes me to learn the material in a new way.

I played collegiate lacrosse and also enjoy surfing, running, and playing soccer when I have some extra free time.... I first make...

...in graduate school: General chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Analytical Chemistry and Inorganic Chemistry. I also minored in mathematics while getting my B.S. in chemistry so I have tutored students in everything from algebra to multi-variable calculus. I enjoy helping students and I get really excited when I feel I have helped a student achieve their learning objectives. Some of my hobbies include yoga, reading, playing music with my band members and cooking. I hope I can...

Microbiologist and analyst. I love to help students connect the concepts we learn in theory and really get them to use it in the applications you would as a scientist.

...Atlanta Public School system. In addition, I was a teacher's assistant to provide more opportunity for one-on-one learning. Even during COVID, I was able to use the BookNook platform to tutor young children remotely, and the lessons I learned from my tutees are as valuable to me as the subjects they mastered. I believe that the relationships between tutors and students are two-way streets, and the most successful tutors are open to learning as much...

...and am continuing my education both in medicine and in organic synthesis. Although I am capable of tutoring a number of academic topics, my expertise specifically lies in organic chemistry. It is my goal to provide students a fundamental feel for and understanding of chemistry which will enable them to critically analyze problems as opposed to relying on memorization. Outside of classroom, I've both worked on and led a number of academic research, industry, and...

...Northwestern University's Feinberg School of Medicine, to DePaul University's Graduate College of Education (MEd Secondary Science Education). An ACT composite of 29, MCAT composite of 33, and USMLE Step 1 score of 238 (all well above national averages) are illustrative of my academic success. I have 1.5 years of classroom teaching experience in Chicago Public Schools, having taught regular biology, honors biology, and International Baccalaureate biology to students in an urban setting. My unique mix...

I received an undergraduate education at the University of California Los Angeles from 2008 - 2012, where I earned a degree in Microbiology, Immunology, and Molecular Genetics. Here I earned a prestigious University Research Program Scholarship with the Oppenheimer Foundation for one year. I also performed research for the Howard Hughes Foundation one year later. My collective experiences...

...my understanding of the educational and psychological challenges students face. I have also gained valuable experience through internships and externships, such as at the Lakeside Community Committee in Chicago and Blue Shield of California. These roles have provided me with a broader perspective on the intersection of education, healthcare, and community support, further fueling my commitment to helping students succeed academically and personally. I offer tutoring in a wide range of subjects, with a particular...

...for several years as a researcher, but I've found that the most satisfying moments have come when I am able to share my expertise with someone else. Similarly, I very much enjoyed the four semesters in the graduate school when I was a teaching assistant. It gave me the opportunity to work with students and help them develop an understanding for the subject. These are the primary reasons that I have decided to go into...

...in Biological Science, I decided to go back into the classroom and teach Anatomy and Physiology, Chemistry, and Biology I at Ursuline Academy of New Orleans. I knew that this career would sharpen my basic science skills and cause my organizational skills to improve tremendously and it did just that. Every morning, I had to be prepared for all three courses in the likely hood that not only would I teach seventy-five minute classes but...

I always try to learn using Einstein's approach to understanding: "If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it enough." In my tutoring , I try to impart that same philosophy to my students.

I would explain it to them in a way they would be interested.... I would have them repeat it back to me or ask them...

...students in variety of subjects, but I am most passionate about Maths, Science, and Physiology. In my opinion, an ideal tutor needs to have a lot of patience, be able to boost his/her student's confidence and should have the ability to identify the simplest solution of problems. I am a firm believer of education, believing it to be absolutely necessary for an improved quality of life and a better society. My hobbies includes calligraphy, playing...

I am a graduate of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign with Bachelors in Chemical Engineering. I have previously tutored students in college specifically in chemistry and calculus.
