...school so I can ensure that my students receive the relevant knowledge they require. My teaching philosophy revolves around the age old method of socratic teaching: AKA I am not here to give you the answers, but rather here to guide you through the processes of taking in information effectively, so that you yourself can become an effective learner for the future beyond. A typical first time tutoring session would begin with me assessing where...

...kind of role model I have been lucky to have in different forms through my childhood and adulthood. Before I had even actualized this as my goal, for years I have known the joys of tutoring and working with a young child who looks to you for more than just the answers to his homework. Starting from when I was twelve, I have been a tutor to many kids of all ages and learning abilities...

...I use these skills to this day when I take state certification and licensing exams. I learned these techniques through trial and error and know that they will be of use to everyone. I have learned that tutoring is a two-way street. The students learn about the subject material and the tutor learns about the most effective way to communicate with them. With that being said, I look forward to working and learning with you...

...believe that everyone can learn to feel the same. Mathematics is ubiquitous in our world and contains profound truths that every human being should be able to understand and appreciate. Students who "hate" math seldom truly do; often only a past bad experience has ruined the subject for them. From there, I branched out to the sciences and things only became more fun. In all my tutoring, I strive to emphasize the underlying beauty of...

...the SAT, SAT Subject tests in Math and Biology, and the MCAT. I can tutor students for these tests as well. My favorite subject to tutor is biology; I find it to be the most interesting science because it deals with life and how living things function (my goal is to go to medical school, so I have a great deal of interest in living things). I like to incorporate real life examples as well...

I have experience tutoring young refugee children ranging in age from kindergarten up through high school. I believe that...

...with a concentration in Evolution and Ecology. I firmly believe that every individual learns in a unique way, and I like to adapt my tutoring style to match. Throughout high school and college, I have tutored peers in a variety of subjects, covering most sciences, math, and writing. The subjects I enjoy most however, are those related to Biology or Physics. I spend much of my free time outdoors running, surfing, hiking, and exploring. I...

...a degree in science, technology, engineering, or math. My favorite subjects to tutor are anything in the math and science fields. I firmly believe that with the right approach and a bit of practice, anyone can grasp these topics. I treat solving math problems more like solving a puzzle, one piece at a time. Since I am passionate about the importance of math and science, I enjoy making them more relatable to a student by...

...to tutor in, but also my favorite subject in biology. I find I never get bored teaching Anatomy, because even though we all have similar basic anatomical structures, no two bodies are alike. Although I am very passionate about learning, I make sure all my students have fun. During a typical tutoring session, I try to incorporate videos, textbooks, and models to help the student stay engaged. I make my sessions interactive in hopes of...

...next step will be getting into medical school. While I can tutor in many of the natural sciences due to BU’s curriculum and my recent completion of the MCAT (which also includes a verbal reasoning section!), I love sharing my knowledge of biology with people. I find the way the human body works fascinating at all levels, from atomically, to macroscopically. I particularly like tutoring biology because there seems to always be something more to...

...I have worked full time as a Director of Operations with the National Student Leadership Conference. At the NSLC, I worked closely with the Engineering and Medicine and Health Care conferences where some of responsibilities included writing lesson plans, revising the curricula, and lecturing to students. Math and science have always been my favorite subjects, and I love bringing real world applications into lessons! I believe that a strong math and science foundation is essential...

I am currently doing my Masters in Sustainable Engineering at Villanova University in Pennsylvania. I served as a Peace Corps volunteer in Tanzania and love learning about new people and places!

...was with an environmental outreach program for students to explore and learn about coastal salt marshes. Instruction during this camp occurred both in the classroom and out in the field, virtually and in person. This interest in hands-on and one-on-one teaching has led me to continue to seek opportunities to help students connect fundamental concepts with applications in life and the environment. I believe that the foundation for a good education is built with a...

As a student, learning material can often seem overwhelming, I understand that problem greatly, but that should not stop anyone from learning new things when sometimes all it might take is a new perspective. It is my goal, to show students the better sides of math and engineering courses as opposed to the one-sided view of the classroom. My philosophy is to tutor students...
