...bachelor's degree in chemical engineering from Auburn University and a master's chemical engineering from the University of Texas at Austin. My education at both of these institutions provided me with a strong foundation in mathematics and chemistry. I have completed extensive coursework in both those areas. While working on my master's degree, I worked as a teaching assistant, teaching courses and providing extra tutoring help for undergraduate college age and adult students. In addition to...

...level physics and calculus. I've always enjoyed teaching and tutoring whether it's by helping a student step by step or helping them to come up with a creative solution. Now, as a professional I participate in STEM outreach programs to advocate for students from underrepresented demographics to pursue engineering. I take pride in my education and career, which is why it's important to me to be able to share my passion with others.

...My Goal as a tutor is to demystify both and introduce young learners their fascinating history! Completing a physics major at Hampshire College, a college famous for its unorthodox teaching style, I garnered a strong understanding of how to interest my non-mathematical peers with complex scientific subjects. Many undergraduates, fresh out of high school, have developed a strong distaste for the exact sciences, often a consequence of having never been introduced to the interesting fringes...

...have been tutoring for four years in a professional setting and seven years on a volunteer basis, specializing in math and science education. I also worked as a curriculum designer for an SAT tutoring firm. I enjoy tutoring because I am strongly against the practice of teaching to the lowest common denominator of students and I believe that every student is entitled to a teacher that will personalize their curriculum and teaching pace to make...

...approach is intuition first and math second. The equations become much more natural if you can build a strong mental picture of a problem. I walk students through problems the way physicists originally solved them. By breaking them down logically, making connections, and ensuring every step makes sense, you can experience discovering something new, just like the physicists and mathematicians of the past. Whether you're struggling with coursework, building confidence, or pushing yourself further, I...

My name is Zev and I am a rising junior at Georgetown. I have always enjoyed helping others learn and that is why I joined Varsity Tutors. My favorite subject is math, as I have always loved problem solving. In my free time, I play tennis, fish, and read.

...are struggling with but to also make sure that they understand why such a procedure works. As a student, I did not always find new concepts easy to understand and I therefore empathise with struggling students, coaching them with a patient, probing approach until we are both satisfied that we have reached our goal. My mathematics and physics background has provided me plenty of experience with problem solving, so that I can often understand concepts...

...subjects, including Economics and Politics (through University level) and Calculus, Statistics, Spanish, US History, Chemistry, and Geography (through AP level). I'm also experienced in university admissions coaching, including SAT/ACT tutoring and advising on personal statements and supplemental essays. Prior to Oxford, I attended the Taft School, where I worked as a peer tutor in several subjects and volunteered with low-income 8th graders, helping them prepare for the SSAT and apply to selective secondary schools.

...passion for teaching, ever since helping my friends out with academics in high school, and I have experience tutoring or teaching calculus, physics, chemistry, and epidemiology. My college coursework includes multivariable calculus, differential equations, organic chemistry, physics, and linear algebra. In addition, I've worked extensively with high school mentorship programs in the Boston area. I want to do my part to make sure students have the support they need to succeed academically and find their...

...degree full time and have decided to take a break from full time subbing to work in the field of tutoring. I have already passed my Praxis II exams in mathematics (requirement for teaching mathematics), and am highly motivated to help your child find success. My love for math is evident, and I enjoy bringing that enthusiasm to the table even when working with a student who struggles immensely. Together we can get your student...

...school and my grade point average was in the top 1% of my graduating class. When I entered college, I decided to get two bachelor's degrees in order to give me thorough training. My first degree was in biology and my second was in medical technology. I worked as a medical technologist at Stamford Hospital for three years but then I wanted to do biomedical research. I soon began at Yale University and worked side...

I'm an engineering student with a rich background in public speaking and natural sciences willing to help anyone interested in expanding their knowledge of any subject. I understand that a conventional or traditional approach is not always the best means for learning.

Hello everyone! I love to learn and I love to help others learn. I'm a BS in Physics and I'm confident I can help with any math or physics.... When solving math and physics problems the best place to start is with the fundamentals. Sometimes I have to start with, "So what happens when you let go of your pencil?" Or, "When I divide by ten on this side what do I have to do to...

...southeastern Connecticut and our small community school fostered that type of environment. I am currently an undergraduate at Harvard University where I am studying Environmental Science and Engineering. Motivated by my love of the outdoors, including running, hiking, skiing, and nature photography, I am passionate about environmental protection and climate change mitigation. My studies have led me to take rigorous classes in math and the sciences, and I have past experience helping my peers with...

...been tutoring since I was a sophmore in high school. I have tutored both Math and Science courses. I obtained my B.S. from Otterbein University and my M.S. from The University of Arizona. During both my undergraduate and graduate career I tutored and taught classes in General Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Analytical Chemistry, Biochemistry and Nursing Chemistry. I have always loved teaching and helping others learn about new material and apply it to their everyday life....

...are causing you difficulty. Once you get on the right path you will improve your grades and have a deeper understanding of your studies. I love physics, but I understand not everyone does.

I'm currently a PhD student in economics at Yale University. I also have a BS in physics and math from Yale. Other subjects I enjoy are history, geography, and philosophy, and I dabble in photography and baking. I enjoy helping people understand tricky concepts and solve challenging problems, academic and otherwise.

...at the University of Rochester, specializing in organic synthesis. In high school, I took AP Biology, AP Chemistry, AP Statistics, AP Calculus, and AP Physics (1 and 2), and I earned a score of 5 on the AP exams for each of them.
