Award-Winning Physical Chemistry Tutors serving Hillsboro, OR

...looked for a way to teach more complex classes at the university and began teaching advanced mathematics for students of civil engineering, electrical engineering, computer engineering and electronic engineering. The purpose of teaching classes in the area of engineering is because I could use all my knowledge in the area of mathematics by teaching classes such as numerical analysis, vector calculus, advanced calculus, physics and chemistry. Later I was also able to teach statistics classes...

...the problem. Then letting the student take a shot at a similar problem and see if they can solve it. Also to target specific weak areas that the student is struggling in. Usually a visual aid accompanying the problem is how I like to teach. Using videos and open discussion are also good methods. Often times engagement in both verbal and written activities at the same time are great ways to learn a new subject....

I am a recent chemistry graduate from Pacific University. Throughout college, I was a physics teaching assistant and a chemistry tutor for three years.

...advanced world. To do this, they need the critical thinking and analytical skills to discriminate and interpret the information with which they are bombarded everyday from a variety of sources. I want to show them that science is not a static body of knowledge to be memorized, but a growing and changing way of understanding our selves and our world. I try approach concepts by modeling how scientists collect data about a subject and then...

...and Molecular Biology. During my studies, I also completed my pre-medical requirements and am currently applying to medical school. I have had the chance to interact and help students as a teaching assistant in a general biology course lab and my education helped me develop learning techniques and time management skills that I look forward to bringing to you. Not all information can be approached in the same manner and I hope to help students...

He earned his M.D. from the Tel Aviv University Sackler School of Medicine, and has done postdoctoral work at Brandeis University, the University of Pennsylvania, and the NASA Johnson Space Center. He earned his Bachelor's degree of Science in...

...is more demanding of critical thinking skills than ever, so it would be remiss of us not to emphasize intellectual growth. The subject I am most passionate about tutoring is mechanics since this is usually a student's first exposure to synthesizing physical theories with mathematical concepts. Overall, I take a conversational approach to tutoring where I try my best to relate the material to the student's life experiences while drawing more conventional analogies that are...

...time classroom teaching experience, I have gained additional experience in successful teaching strategies through the completion of my Masters of Arts in Teaching program. My main goal is to help my students develop critical thinking and problem solving skills. With those skills, they will learn how to solve problems and to take charge of their own learning. My strategies of increasing understanding stem from building on what they know and encouraging thinking about where they...

...the subjects I spent the most time preparing for in school and ultimately also the most valuable in my career. My Tutoring style is Student first, I like to fully understand my students goals and I like them to get the most out of every session with me. I like to emphasize clear concepts and provide plenty of opportunities for repetition to build their skills. I hope that during their time with me students not...

Passionate science and math tutor from elementary school math to upper level college sciences. I've been tutoring for 10 years, and I love to see my client's grow! My tutoring style encompasses learning how to implement habits that will lead us to our goals. I am a big believer in conceptual understanding, organization, repetition and applying new information in different ways (I like props and real-life examples). Please contact me with details of what you're...

...up helping my friends with math or physics problems, and during my last year of school, I led a tutoring class for general physics with calculus. My friends and the student I tutor have mentioned that I do a good job of explaining topics in different ways than the instructor did in their classes. I also try my best to let students solve problems on their own, only asking leading questions to make sure they...

...children. I am a firm believer in the Socratic method of teaching and think that asking guiding, insightful questions is the best way to engender a robust understanding of a given concept in a student. As for me, I am from Portland, Oregon originally. The Pacific Northwest is my home through and through; I am particularly enamored with the boundless outdoor opportunities constantly enticing me away from the metropolitan area. I love the rain and...

...to teach are Geology, Astronomy and Physics. I have taught AP Physics since 2005 including AP Physics B, 1 and 2. Despite the fact that my students come from a Title 1 school and many of them are first generation college students, they consistently beat state and national averages with their AP Physics scores. I have attended five AP Summer Institute programs in Physics and I am an official AP Reader, which means I am...

...hand feels relevant to something you care about. With 6 years as an optical research scientist, I bring real world experience to motivate interest and understanding in my students. I have experience with hands-on lab skills, computer modeling, and data analysis in a research and engineering setting. That is to say I used geometry, calculus, diff-eq's and physics everyday. I am also passionate about teaching - sharing that knowledge in an accessible way that will...

...it teaches students how to learn. This is a skill that can applied to any area of study and it helps make the material more understandable. I use a variety of methods to teach including drawings, models, analogies, similar practice problems, and anything else that would help them to learn. Outside of school I love riding horses and have five back home in Montana. I also like being outdoors, hiking, kayaking, swimming, and doing anything...

I got my BS in Neuroscience and Psychology from Washington State University. I am Math/Science teacher, and I tutor.

Science and Mathematics were my favorite since elementary school, and I used to help my friends with Chemistry, Trigonometry, Calculus, and Physics...

...capable and give them opportunities to utilize unique methods and techniques to approaching problems/concepts that may endure beyond one's schooling years. My tutoring approach consists of utilizing a bottom up approach to engage students by building complex concepts beginning from a fundamental level. I like to use a variety of techniques to accommodate to the needs of the students as many can be placed into the categories of: Auditory, Visual, Kinesthetic, and/or Read/Write learners.

...begin to doubt themselves or first struggle with mathematics, so I think its important to make sure they are really comfortable with the skills they will need.
