...my M.D. in May 2022. I have had tutoring experience prior to medical school as a piano teacher and physics tutor at my undergrad. Additionally, I have experience mentoring my peers and editing personal statements/activity descriptions for medical school applications as well as other graduate school applications (dental school, PA school). During medical school, I have mentored underclassmen on coursework as well as the USMLE Step 1 and 2 exams where I scored in the...

...down to how we were taught. It took me years to learn to swim. I got the stroke patterns down early but it wasn't until someone told me to exhale all the way through not just into the water but as my face is leaving the water that I really got it. The same applies to learning in school: one key idea or concept can make all the difference. My teaching style is easy going....

Hi I'm Kara! I graduated from Grinnell College in Iowa in May 2017 where I majored in biological chemistry. During college, I worked as a class mentor for 1st and 2nd-year biology classes. As a mentor, I helped during class time and lab, but I also held sessions twice weekly outside of class to review and teach the material. I really enjoy working with my peers on biology concepts.

...Engineering Fair and so I am used to presenting my research projects in a concise and understandable way. I am skilled in breaking down difficult topics into bite sized pieces of digestible information. This way I am showing, not telling. I believe it is super important for the student to actually understand the information instead of just being able to regurgitate ideas and answers for a test. I hope to help you out!

...experience teaching grades 4-9: before attending Columbia, I took a gap year, throughout which I assistant taught middle school math and science, focusing on basic genetics. I also teach through Columbia via an organization called Peer Health Exchange, which allows me to work with a group of 9th graders and to teach a comprehensive sexual health and wellness curricula. I myself had tutors throughout high school and even in some college classes, so I understand...

...and AP-level physics, I'm excited to share my knowledge and experience to help others succeed. My educational journey has been fueled by a desire to understand how things work, and this curiosity led me to excel in courses like Calculus and Physics. I'm currently pursuing my degree at Hofstra University, where I'm immersed in challenging courses that continue to develop my problem-solving and analytical skills. I believe the key to successful tutoring lies in adaptability....

...worked with many young people and adults, helping them understand their learning styles, learn and study more efficiently, and achieve their goals. My students say they have to work less hard, and have less stress from school, while getting better grades (that is, the students who engage and practice the tools between sessions). I hold a Master's of Science and have taught Anatomy and Physiology in the Nursing Program at Laguardia Community College in NYC....

...inquisitive. I was the annoying classmate who always raised their hand and had to know why everything was the way it is and worked the way it did before we moved on. My tutoring style works the same way. I do *not* believe in memorization and have textbooks as clear as yesterday engrained in my head years after learning them is because of taking time to break concepts down to their simplest ideas and building...

...addition, I worked as math instructor for an advanced after-school program for children in grades 1-8. I believe that personal tutoring is one of the most effective methods of teaching as it allows the pace of the lessons to be carefully matched to the student, so that learning is at the same time challenging, but not overwhelming. Based on my experience, I can guarantee improvement, regardless of your current level or background.

I believe the key to education is to promote the underlying understanding of the concepts. Once a topic is understood, the application of the numbers comes easily. People don't really hate math; they hate feeling uncomfortable with it.

Nearly my entire life has been devoted to education of some sort; whether it be as a learner, teacher or, in many cases both. Thus, I consider myself a lifelong learner, being cognizant of the fact that teaching and learning are two sides of the same coin. My lifelong endeavor is to continually learn and to teach others what I have learned.

...and the Bronx High School of Science. I vividly remember what it is like to go through a rigorous academic education where you constantly have to prioritize school work, extracurricular activities, standardized testing, a social life... and the constant difficulties of just being a high school student! I have a Masters in Chemistry and much experience tutoring chemistry and math at both middle and high school levels. During my undergrad, I worked at a high...

I take pleasure in helping students bridge the gap between the known and the unknown.

...Chemistry, Biology (Cellular, Molecular, Developmental, and Genetics), and Physics, each for minimum of one year. The reason I agreed to tutor again and again each year they approached me is because I simply loved it. It is hard to describe the wonderful feeling of seeing a student you helped master the material in front of you and run through problems like they're nothing. My favorite question since childhood has been "why?". I was never a...
