...subjects. For more than 9 years I have taught high school, undergraduate and graduate students in the laboratory, classroom and tutorial settings. I believe learning should be fun and that everyone can learn, we just need to work together to find out what works for you. Learning is not just observation, it is also participation. By engaging students in interactive discussions, I encourage curiosity and intellectual exploration. I help students learn how to think not...

...chemical engineering. I have tutored subjects from general chemistry to physical chemistry, and I have a really strong background in math. I want to pass on my love for chemistry, biology, math, and engineering to students! I have been tutoring these subjects for the past three years. My tutoring style is friendly, and encouraging! I am a visual learner, and I like to teach my students concepts by pictures. Furthermore, my tutoring style is fun...

...Calculus 3, all levels of Physics, lower Chemistry, and Computer Science. There's no getting around it: I am a Nerd. I breathe, eat, and sleep anything and everything technological and engineering, but I also wish to stress the engineering part - I'm very practical. I am a big fan of the KISS principle, and am a big fan of efficiency, not just in technologies, but in our understanding and use of them. Over time, that...

...positive attitude and being excited to learn. Being able to provide students with the tools for academic success is something I deeply love because I believe success in the classroom spills over to better outcomes in the real world like increased confidence and self-esteem. I have worked with students of all ages from elementary school to college students in a variety of subjects including standardized test prep like the ACT/SAT/PSAT, college level chemistry, organic chemistry,...

...I received my Ph. D., also in chemistry. I have eighteen years of experience as a research scientist and seventeen years of experience as a high school and college level science teacher. I have taught chemistry, physics and environmental science at all levels including CP, Honors, AP and Dual enrollment. I have also taught IB Chemistry and IB Physics (SL and HL). In addition, I have tutored Algebra 1 & 2, Geometry, Pre-Calculus and Calculus....

...a primary focus in Environmental and Structural Engineering. Upon graduation, I moved to Tanzania to pursue a Fulbright Research Grant where I was able to work with community members to help establish a water distribution system for a rural village. After returning, I completed my Masters level coursework at the University of California, Davis in Civil and Environmental Engineering. I have had a variety of tutoring experiences over the course of my studies, ranging from...

...lab developing cryogenic experiments studying the solid state behavior of DNA and RNA nucleotide. Additionally, I worked in a material processing lab optimizing the synthesis size of gold nano-rods and began developing starting materials for non-linear optics liquid crystals polymers. I tutored various chemistry subjects through a free service for the students at Montana State. I thoroughly enjoyed being able to work one-on-one with students. Chemistry is a complex subject and developing a students learning...

...find out what interested the students and come up with an example that they would be able to understand. In the sciences, I believe learning should be as much hands on as possible and I used a variety of outside resources to teach various concepts, whether it would be using balloons, dry ice, tennis balls and paper wads, or even LIGHTING WATER ON FIRE. In addition to all of the chemistry subjects (up to a...

...and the 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...

With an array of experiences within the biomedical and healthcare industry, I desire to assist students in strengthening their foundation in the basic sciences that will assure them success in a science related career.
