I believe...

...be going to medical school this fall. I know how much of a struggle the MCAT can be. I put a lot of time and effort into it last year and came out successful. I know I can be a valuable resource to get you prepared for what seems like such a daunting test!

...and I decided to go one evening. This extra help raised my level of understanding and even my grade, immediately. I strive to offer the same type of help I received in these sessions because I would not be where I am in my academic career today without them. I am currently applying to medical...

I have been tutoring for over two years in math and physics. I am currently a sophomore at NC State where I plan on majoring in Mathematics and Chemical engineering.

I pride myself in being able to help simplify challenging problems for students, as well as offer mentorship and moral support in the absence of a teacher for the student's academic success.

I am a UNC sophomore in business and computer science and love tutoring in math, science, or Spanish. Hobbies/Interests: Soccer, basketball, and playing race car games

The very first student whom I tutored received a perfect score on the ACT. That is why I have continued tutoring for the past seven years. Throughout the course of my tutoring, I have had the pleasure of working with a wide variety of students from kindergarten to graduate school.

...college for a year. Most recently I've been a Maple tutor at the NC State Math Media Lab where I help students do their calculus homework. I'm currently going into my 3rd year as a Mechanical Engineering Student at NC State. Prior to this degree I obtained a degree in Computer Science from a small...

...level math such as Algebra I&II and Calculus I,II& Multivariable Calculus. Through my thesis work I have published peer reviewed papers on statistical methods and have tutored countless students in Statistics. I also have experience teaching high school and college level Chemistry classes from when I was a Teaching Assistant in college. In this position...

...for education and the transformative effect it can have on people's lives. In my experience, students of all ages learn best when they feel both confident and curious. I build students' confidence through skills development and by simplifying complex concepts to their core components. I foster curiosity by relating subject material to issues that the...

...tutoring after approached by my Biology and Chemistry professors. The one thing I enjoy most about tutoring is helping someone to achieve that breakthrough moment.
