Award-Winning Physics Tutors in Minneapolis, MN

...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 extensive education in mathematics, I also worked at a Writing tutor at Roger Williams University...

...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 to the opportunity to...

...a technology startup in St Paul, and aim to attend graduate school in technology policy. I began tutoring in high school, and have since continued enjoyed helping my peers to see a puzzle in a new light. From four summers as a leadership camp counselor, I have gained confidence working one-on-one with a student to help them consider new perspectives, and from four years of discussion sections in college where I presented solutions to the...

...admissions nerd. From standardized tests like the ACT and GRE to entrance essays of every stripe, I have a passion for helping students achieve the outcomes they deserve. I've been a tutor since my undergraduate days at Reed College in Portland, Oregon. After school I served as a College Access Coach with Americorps. I specialize in both the language and mathematical sections of the ACT, SAT, and GRE. I like to approach exams as challenges...

I am a Minneapolis-based tutor with experience in English, Writing, Math (Pre-Algebra-Calculus), and Physics tutoring. I love working with students to achieve their goals! ... I craft my teaching approach on an individual basis, depending on the student's age, interests, and personal learning style. I prefer to take a hands-on approach to subjects, as I believe that the more engaged students are, the more they are able to retain information and stay focused.... A typical first session would involve me talking to students about their learning goals, and trying to identify which aspects of the material they are having trouble with in order to craft a long-term study and learning plan.

...knowledge is a part of who I am. I treasure the chance to watch the unique intelligence of people around me unfold. It's an adventure to encounter and systematically overcome problems put in front of us, as a team. I passionately practice that teamwork-focused approach to tutoring, and I and my tutees have a thrill in that intellectual voyage. In my spare time I DJ and travel with friends to explore the vastness of the...

...work and asking questions to achieve where you want to get to. I firsthand know the value of asking for help when you don't understand something, having spent a lot of time throughout college in professor's offices or with groups of students struggling through a concept, but felt very accomplished once all the pieces came together and was grateful to those who helped me. My hope is to return that favor to individuals who needed...

...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 class and understand what the instructor is saying, you don't need to practice the material. Accordingly, I emphasize the need to practice "speaking" the language...

...my time in school, but particularly starting at Drexel, I have tutored other students in a variety of medically related areas. Most recently, I have tutored 1st and 2nd year medical students in a variety of medical school classes. I have also served on a wider level: participating on the curriculum planning committee and admission committee at Virginia Commonwealth University School of Medicine. I take great pleasure in advising and tutoring and love to see...

...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 I can convey some of this excitement! Outside of academia, I'm into climbing and good...
