Award-Winning Physiology Tutors in Hempstead, NY

...applied in the human body, which makes it really fun to tutor them! My tutoring style focuses on the student taking ownership of the material. To me this means that the student is learning the material in a way that is the most optimal for them, and in a way that ensures that they can apply their knowledge meaningfully. Outside of the classroom I love to go on long runs in central park, read, cook...

...subsequently inspiring people to seek their own truths. Tutoring is a beautiful composition of art and science. One must understand both the material and the student. Not just simple comprehension, but in what manner the comprehension is reached. I enjoy breaking down problems into logical sub-units. First, the underlying equations (or axioms, or vocabulary, or processes) must be understood, preferably on an instinctual level, as it is easier to remember ideas when they make sense...

...my studies, but extend beyond them as well. I am matriculating to medical school next year, and am passionate about biomedical science and helping people. I spend my free time reading, playing pick-up basketball or soccer with my friends, going on a run or for a swim, and watching sports. I tutor high school and college-level science courses, including chemistry, biology, biochemistry, and physics. I also tutor economics, at both a high school and college-level....

I've always known I wanted to teach. Once I received my undergraduate degree in Psychology/Neuroscience, I decided to pursue a Masters degree in Education. I love working with classrooms full of students, but I also love working with people one-on-one. I find that when the tutor has a chance to zero in on and accommodate a students' individual needs and learning style, the experience becomes more productive and enjoyable for everyone involved.

...support in their success stories. After college, I spent one year in India on a Fulbright Fellowship teaching English to 6th to 8th grade students at a school for underserved girls. I struggled a lot as a teacher in this environment. I had to witness the underfunded and crumbling infrastructure of the government school, had to overcome a strong language barrier, had to diminish the apathy that my girls felt for the English language, and...

...strong mathematical interest and ability. Math and science have been two of my favorite subjects since middle school, and I follow the developments in these fields both in my career and in my spare time. I believe that students do their best when they have passionate teachers who can inspire them to want to learn a subject, especially one that can cause as much frustration as math sometimes does. Simply learning material in order to...

...order to certify that I had the appropriate background to provide professional feedback to fellow students on their literary works and projects. After graduation, I worked for a full-service learning center where I created and implemented high school lesson plans for home-schooled students, provided academic support for students ranging in ages from 8 to 20 years old, and taught group and individual standardized testing preparation classes. I have also assisted students with application essays for...

I grew up in Belgium before moving to Los Angeles in 2010, and now I live in New York. I graduated with a Bachelor's in Bioethics and Natural Sciences and recently was accepted to medical school. I am a native French and Dutch speaker (don't worry - my English is good, too!) but I also love studying and teaching sciences, including physics, general and organic chemistry, biology, as well as math and Latin.

...or regurgitate facts but truly understand the material. I ask them to defend their answers which teaches them that the correct response is often less important than the reasoning used to reach said response. I honestly believe that anyone can learn anything given enough time and patience. I try my best to not only be a teacher but also a role model to my students and to interact with them as people not just clients....

...important to curtail your teaching methods to the student's favorite learning style. Whether you're a visual, auditory, or tactile learner (or some combination of all three!), I'm confident I can assist you in understanding and mastering difficult concepts! I plan to matriculate to medical school in the summer of 2014 after taking a gap year filled with relaxation, a lot of hockey, and hopefully some scuba diving if I'm lucky enough to escape the barren...
