...fellowship as an actuary. I have always enjoyed helping my peers in classes with unclear teaching methods, which led me to tutor at a young age in my K-12 school, then in college. The cumulative nature of math poses challenges to many students, and I like to find ways to connect the dots to help my students have a better grasp of difficult concepts. While I have tutored a variety of subjects, such as math,...

...AP, ACT, and SAT are tests where a quick understanding of the content is necessary, but students also need wise strategies for working under time pressure, narrowing down answers, and understanding what the questions are really saying. I value critical thinking as my philosophy of education, because students who have developed the ability to reason through new concepts and be confident in the conclusions they reach are not only well-prepared for tests, but also...... I am...

...on Astrophysics, I also have a degree in Chemistry. While in college I tutored Physics and Calculus and after I graduated I traveled to Russia to get my certificate to Teach English as a Second language and also to teach adults, teenagers and small children where I was also able to teach a Spanish class.

Being the 2nd oldest of seven children, tutoring has always come naturally. Having completed most of the courses prior to my younger siblings taking them, it was natural to spend time answering their questions and working through problems with them. Having graduated Magna Cum Laude with a degree in Mechanical Engineering, I was oftentimes called upon by my peers to help explain a difficult concept, or work through a difficult exercise. In addition to my...

...a PhD in biophysical chemistry from Stanford University, I have passion for science and mathematics that I love to share as a teacher and tutor. I am firmly of the belief that learning a technical subject like chemistry, physics, or math is much like learning a foreign language: listening and reading is much easier than speaking and writing. It is all too easy to fall into the trap of believing that if you come to...

...Virginia. Over the past five years I've taught quite a few lab courses, mostly in electronics for biomedical students. I enjoy helping to guide students to a better understanding, so they can explain a concept in their own words (not just in my words). I like to draw out visual explanations whenever possible, for math and science concepts. I've been excited about all kinds of science for pretty much all my life, and I hope...

...Cloud State University. I expect to receive a BS in 5th-12th Grade General Science/Chemistry Education this spring. I've spent my time at St. Cloud State studying various subjects with a focus on math, chemistry, biology and other sciences. I've had multiple opportunities to observe and teach in schools around the area, with time spent tutoring students individually. Teaching and tutoring have been passions of mine for as long as I can remember. I'm looking forward...

Jot down 2-3 words that summarizes each paragraph, and then write a cumulative summarizing sentence at the end of the passage.

...themselves, students will own that knowledge. Once a student develops a network of knowledge, he or she can easily learn new science knowledge and add the concepts to the existing framework. I grew up on a small farm with dairy cows, hogs and chickens. We were organic farmers and field work was done with horses, tractors, and with old and modern machinery. Every day farming held a new science lesson. Most often the science was...
