Award-Winning Physics Tutors in Highlands Ranch, CO

...percentile or above on the SAT, ACT, and MCAT. Since graduating in May with two degrees in biology and psychology, I have spent my time going through the medical school application process. During the upcoming year, I hope to help tutor those still in school not only to keep on my toes academically, but to help those who may be struggling with various subjects throughout their academic careers. There is no better feeling than watching...

...student to have an effective learning experience, the tutor must not only be passionate about teaching, but also about learning. As a passionate learner, I try to interpret the world around me, be that math, science, or why my garden behaves differently in Colorado than my family's in Nebraska. Early on in life, I loved numbers, patterns, and the problem solving nature of my parents' careers. This led to me enjoying math, science and engineering...

I can help with math and science subjects for students of all ages, as well as test prep. I was valedictorian of my high school and have a BS in mechanical engineering from the University of Texas at Austin. ... I believe in helping students develop a deep understanding of the fundamentals behind the problems they're trying to solve.... I want to keep things light and breezy. I want to get to the know the student...

...for a core engineering course, Science of Materials. I taught a weekly review recitation and held weekly office hours, which gave me the opportunity to guide students through the course and supplement their knowledge. This ignited my initial passion for teaching. I believe teaching should be "hands on" by involving the student through questions and promoting participation. One-on-one teaching especially should be less lecturing from the tutor and more input from the student. By using...

...hydrology, geomorphology, ecology, and their interactions with humans. All of which use differential equations to model the environment. I studied engineering as well so I have extensive knowledge of math and its application. I tutor by first getting to know the student so that I can relate problems to their lives. The one on one relationship is effective because tutoring can be catered to the student in order to develop their independent thinking.... I believe in...

...believe that no one method is the best for solving problems and learning concepts. Instead, it really depends on the student and how they learn best. Because I am able to look at problems with both an analytical and liberal arts mindset, I believe I can tailor my lesson plans with the right strategies and techniques to meet each of my students’ needs. My work history ranges from tutoring in pre-calculus, managing and mentoring high-school...

I enjoy teaching real-world problem solving techniques that I learned while studying Mathematical Physics in college. I'm here to help students develop a deeper, more complete understanding through connections with every-day-life, because that's what I struggled with in school and I'd hate for others to struggle the same way. ... Who cares about learning something if it won't help you in real life? I teach using real-world examples and down-to-earth scenarios. My approach to problem solving...

...same. I believe with understanding we can have a greater appreciation for the simpler things as well as the most complex things. Chemistry and Biology are my two favorite subjects and I love seeing how they are applied in nature as well as in industry. I recently graduated with a M.S. in Polymer Chemistry from the University of Oregon, because polymers are the coolest. I would be happy to share a polymer fact with you...

...with those that I teach. I believe in helping students not only understand the answer, but understand the process that allowed them to answer the question. I help students strengthen critical thinking and problem solving skills. This way, students will be able to take charge of their own learning and develop skills that will help them in the future. I believe that it is important to get to know every student that I work with...

...how they may connect the core concepts in some of their most important subjects to the rewarding challenges of real world applications. My background allows me to offer more than just a study session to someone who wants to take charge of their success. I like to build a framework of tools that students can use for their entire career, and I offer new ways of looking at old ideas. I hold a Master of...
