Award-Winning Physics Tutors in Batavia, IL

...go to class. As Albert Einstein said, If a teacher cannot teach his student to understand a common concept, it means the teacher himself does not understand the concept he is teaching." I have control over the concepts in mathematics and I am able to explain it to the student in an understandable way. This...

...sister out with all subjects (currently in high school) and also tutored middle school and high school students through NHS at Hinsdale Central. I even help teach and collaborate with fellow students at UMD. I feel comfortable teaching pretty much any subject you could throw at me. My strongest subjects are math and physics. I...

...well as studying oysters, the focus of my thesis research, I was also teaching hands-on Marine Science in a local elementary school. I then moved south to San Francisco where I had been working for three years working in informal science education. I love working with students and passing on my love and knowledge of...

...comes from a lifelong love of learning and the desire to enhance my knowledge. As a future medical school student, I know that hard work and dedication are necessary to success.

...After teaching subjects ranging from AP US History to graduate level biochemistry to the MCAT, I have dealt with a variety of students and know I can help anyone. When I am not working or tutoring I enjoy soccer and rock climbing. My ideal day consists of a pool, an ice-cold coke, a book, and my...

...Notre Dame College Prep in Niles, IL. I am a huge Black Hawk fan and definitely believe Ovechkin is better than Crosby. I have flexible hours and am willing to work as much as needed to help people understand their material, especially since science does not always contain easy concepts to understand.... I think it is important to understand the concepts behind any material before trying to apply it and further understand something at a much greater depth. That is more true for science than almost any subject in school.

...many alternate routes to explanation, should the more common ones not work well. This interests me greatly, as it broadens my own understanding of the topics in math and physics I find so interesting. An added bonus is being able to help someone meet their classroom goals. I recently earned a B. S. in Physics...

I am a recent law school graduate working at Northern Illinois University College of Law. ... I like to work through an example problem with a student and then have the student work through a similar problem on their own while they explain to me what steps they are taking to solve the problem. As students vocalize what they need to do at each step of the problem, they begin to internalize the steps so that the next time they come across a similar problem, they know what to do. I also like to encourage students to use the information they know. Even if they have never done the exact problem we are working on, have they ever done anything similar and what can they use from that previous experience to help them now? I want my students to get as far with a problem as they can on their own before I offer assistance to complete the problem.

My name is Sohum Mehrotra, and I'm a Software Engineering Major studying at the University of Illinois at Chicago. I have a strong background in math and logic problems. I've struggled in the past with these subjects, so I know where the common problem areas are and how to best tackle them.... My philosophy when it comes to teaching and learning, in general, is to establish a concrete understanding of the fundamentals of a certain subject. Often, students cannot solve problems, not because they are not smart enough, but because the way in which they learned the core information was not taught thoroughly.

...at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign currently pursuing an Electrical Engineering degree. I have experience tutoring at the high-school, middle-school and elementary school levels. I tutor subjects like Algebra, General Science, Chemistry, Physics and Calculus. As you can probably tell I love science and math and these are my favorite subjects to tutor in....
