Award-Winning Physical Chemistry Tutors in Round Rock, TX

...of the classroom. I strongly believe in inquiry-based instruction, which consists of leading students to develop solutions on their own while analyzing their thought process. This allows the student and instructor to discover the student's misconceptions and for the student to correct them. I have found that this method is much more effective than traditional styles because when the student verbalizes their thought process and corrects their own misconceptions, it is something they will remember...

...if a student doesn't understand a concept at first, I can hopefully explain it in another way that I've learned. I like working with students that are self motivated and want to have a tutor, no matter their current skill level in a class. Having a great teacher or tutor won't help if the student does not want to learn and put in the work. However, I truly believe any student can not just succeed,...

...tone and author's preconceived notions about the student's background. Therefore, when I tutor I build the framework from the ground up and depend a lot on visual aids (diagrams and charts) rather than formulas and numbers. I believe that there is no such thing as a dumb question and I address each question as many times as necessary . I also include a lot of examples and encourage the students to come up with their...

I grew up in Austin, Texas. I eventually decided to go to the University of Texas at Austin . I graduated with a bachelors degree in Chemical Engineering . During my time at UT I spent 4 semesters working as a tutor for chemistry, calculus, and physics. I also tutored my friends in whatever subjects they needed help in. I find tutoring to be a very rewarding experience and one of the best feelings is...

...answer of a difficult question. I tutor math (Calculus, Geometry, Trigonometry, Algebra) as well as SAT math, English, and science (Biology, Chemistry, Physics, and Biochemistry). I really enjoy tutoring math and English! Math always has an answer to work towards and can be taught using various mediums. English is also a favorite subject of mine as I love to read and write and love reading the works of others. I like to tutor subjects by...

...my time as a grad student, I discovered my true passion lies in teaching! I enjoy working with students to help them develop the knowledge and problem solving skills needed to succeed in Chemistry, Biology, and Mathematics courses, and also enjoy helping prospective grad students conquer the GRE Quantitative Section. These subject build upon a large and varied set of background information, and I find the challenge of teaching these sometimes difficult subjects exhilarating. By...

...solving puzzles and mathematics is a perfect outlet for this passion. I have tutored students in subjects ranging from Basic Algebra to Quantum Mechanics. Despite no longer living in Boston I still have some of my students contacting me for intermittent aid. When I tutor I do not give answers, I help my students put together pieces of their own knowledge to come up with answers. I believe a good tutor is a guide more...

I love helping people understand material that they have trouble working through on their own. Everyone learns differently and there is a way to teach everyone once you breakdown the information to its most basic concepts and build up from there. I am sure that together we can set you on the right path to understanding the subject matter at hand.

...science classes/conferences, I realize the importance of conveying information in an understandable and accessible manner. I make this goal a priority when I am working with students. I am a lifelong student and am inspired to instill a love of learning in my students. Certain subjects, especially science, may not ‘be your thing’ and that is just fine. It is my job as the teacher to impart that passion for the subject by showing you...

...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 what to think. By learning to think critically, students are able to maximize their potential to excel in math and science and do well on exams. I am willing to work hard...
