I am a certified teacher (Science 8-12, 4-8, Math 4-8 and Special Ed EC-12) and tutor and enjoy finding creative ways for students tounderstand all aspects of learning. I began my educational journey at Texas Tech (GO RAIDERS), where I received my BS in Molecular Biology , then went to UTMB Galveston and completed3 years towards my PhD in Genetics. I also hold a MS in Educational Leadership. I have taught Chemistry, Biology (regular and AP) within public school districts for over 5 years, and have 8 years experience working in the Pharmaceutical Industry. Ihave also tutored for Kaplan and The Princeton Review focusing on MCAT prep (Biology and Organic Chemistry). I try and find unique ways for each student to enjoy the material, even if it's difficult! I also coach and LOVE soccer, adore my dogs and cats and am an avid chess player.

I have a positive and patient way of getting through to students. Science was my favorite subject matter in college and I like to break down difficult information into terms that are easier to understand and follow. For example, I like to break down scientific terms by their roots. In doing so, my students not only remember what the terms mean for that class but can also apply that knowledge in future class work. I also believe in using reinforcement techniques such as repetition, writing, and regular revision/quizzing of the subject matter so that the information not only stays fresh, but is also easier to build on that information further.As I graduated with an honors bachelor's degree in Biology, I started working at my university as an academic tutor. Based on the performance of my students, I was further promoted to the "Lead Science Tutor" position where I could share teaching techniques and train incoming tutors as well. I was the president of Society for Neuroscience and organized many community education outreach events. As an academic tutor, I am able to use my patient, motivating, and goal-oriented nature to help my students not only do well in one course, but also improve their study habits altogether and achieve long term goals.

By focusing on students' incremental accomplishments, I empower them to attain more ambitious objectives. I have successfully tutored students in both virtual and in-person environments. Through my partnership with Varsity Tutors, I have expanded my expertise to encompass PRAXIS, OAE, GED, and various math and science-based subjects, catering to students across diverse age groups. As a graduate of Ohio University, I earned a Bachelor of Science in Education with a specialization in Integrated Science Education. I furthered my education at Concordia University, obtaining a Master of Education with a major in Curriculum and Instruction and a minor in STEAM. Throughout my teaching career, I have witnessed students' growth and success, which remains my greatest passion.

I offer focused tutoring to prepare for standardized or in-class exams.I received my MD from the University of Maryland in 2011. Toward the end of medical school I became involved in helping premedical students prepare for the MCAT exam (I scored 98th percentile on this exam in 2007 and have since obtained higher scores on diagnostics). After medical school I completed my internship at Northwestern University and then left the clinical setting to join an MCAT content development company I founded in 2011. Over the past year, I have coached several students on MCAT preparation. I find these relationships valuable because they help me learn students learn, which helps me to write higher-yield MCAT-style questions.The MCAT contains General Chemistry/ Physics, Verbal Reasoning, and Biology/ Organic Chemistry/ Physiology/ Genetics/ Molecular Biology/ Biochemistry sections, and I feel comfortable tutoring in all these areas.The approach I will help you to implement has 3 parts: (1) Where am I now? (2) Where to I want to go? (3) How am I going to get there? To answer the first question, we'll need your most recent diagnostic test scores and a full summary of your classes/ coursework so far. The second question will be determined by you. The third question I will help you to figure out based on the time you have available to prepare. If necessary, we'll choose additional diagnostics to find your weaknesses. Then, we'll select content materials and practice problems (broken down by week) to target your weaknesses specifically.I look forward to working with you!

I am an MS graduate at the University of South Florida, in the field of ecology and Evolution, with my bachelors from the University of Florida in general biology with a chemistry minor.Since graduating from UF, I planned to either go to medical school, or to seek a position as a professor teaching at a reputable college. I chose the latter; though the pay is less, I find too much joy in both research and teaching to not pursue those as a career at the highest level.Throughout my life, I have found that I am very skilled at teaching both my colleagues and those younger than me. Around my middle school years, I found I have a knack for explaining abstract and difficult-to-understand topics. At which point, I began tutoring on a volunteer basis which later developed into a private tutoring business. I normally teach college courses as a Teaching Assistant at the University of South Florida Tampa campus, while I further my work on my dissertation (centered on genetics).I am comfortable with teaching mathematics through Calculus I (or whatever the equivalent.) I am extremely competent with statistics, as it comprises an integral part of both my TA work and research. I also excel in all areas of academic writing. I am most suited to test prep tutoring sessions: I have invariably excelled at all standardized tests. I am also familiar with ACT and SAT formats, and the particular and differing strategies that maximize the likelihood of high scores for each.

I am a few months away from earning a B.S. in biochemistry at California State University of Fullerton. During my time as an undergraduate, I tutored both high school and college level students. I tutored mainly biology and chemistry (CP, honors, AP and SAT II), as well as college level chemistry and biology. Being a student myself, I believe that each student has the potential to excel academically as long as he/she works hard. My teaching philosophy is that a student must fully understand the material, not just learn how to apply it, such that he/she would be successful in the class.

I am a graduate from the University of Pennsylvania where I received a Bachelor of Arts in Chemistry. I started peer tutoring in high school, staying after school to help fellow students with AP Chemistry content before major exams and quizzes. I currently tutor in math (up to AP Calculus BC/Calculus II), chemistry, physics, biology and offer test prep for the SAT and several SAT Subject tests. However my favorite subjects to tutor involve chemistry, due to the various real world examples that make the subject more comprehensive and ultimately enjoyable for students. My hobbies and interests include dancing, solving crossword puzzles, binging Netflix TV shows and hiking.

As a tutor, my primary goal is to provide students with the resources and the understanding necessary for them to reach their full potentials. I love getting to know each individual student so I can help in a way that will best fit their learning needs and to make each tutoring session fun.My background is in Biochemistry, Chemistry and Molecular Biology. I graduated from University of Pennsylvania in 2012 in an accelerated BA/MS program, and currently work at Harvard University as a research assistant in Developmental Biology. I have a good deal of personal experience with the competition and expectations of academics at top tier universities. I also have a Creative Writing minor and a huge passion for the written word. I like to approach essays with the philosophy of simplicity and clarity. I can tutor a variety of subjects, and look forward to working with you!

My name is Alex and I am a proud and recent graduate of Rice University where I received my Master's in Environmental Science with a heavy focus on Environmental Statistics. Before this I attended the University of Texas at Austin where I received my Bachelor's degrees in Geography and Humanities.Having been exposed to an eclectic background of liberal arts and hard science I am comfortable tutoring across a broad range of subjects and encourage students to see the inherent connections between their work and real-world applications.Despite my technical background, I am a person who would much rather contemplate the words in a good book rather than the letters of a differential equation. However, my interest in studying the natural world has caused me to suffer through more math classes than I care to count. As a result, I am well-equipped to help 'math-shy' students understand, appreciate, and flourish in a subject that they may have previously disliked.I believe in forging a relationship between the student and the subject matter with the idea being able to answer the question "when will I ever need to know this?" is the first step to understanding.Currently, I live in Houston with my bride, Nathalie, and our great big black lab, affectionately know as "The Bear". I love being out-of-doors in any capacity and am an avid soccer-player, swimmer, and cyclist.

My name is Zeeshan Qazi and I am majoring in Biology at Loyola University Chicago. I am working towards becoming a physician, and I expect to attend medical school next year. I have scored at the 100th percentile for the Physical Sciences portion of the MCAT. My Chemistry, Physics, and Biology knowledge is quite extensive. I have always been fascinated by science and medicine. I have been tutoring for 3 years, and I have experience teaching from 1st grade students all the way up to college kids. I enjoy tutoring because it is a way for me to help someone academically, which I believe is a very important part of one's life.
