My goal as a tutor is to improve the academic achievement of students through encouraging scholarly and personal progress.

I strongly encourage my students to set goals so that they can personally measure their academic progress and improvement.

...often are not obvious and require focus and attention to reveal themselves. When a student is learning and making connections, I have the utmost patience and demonstrate multiple ways to arrive at the same conclusion. I have done extensive tutoring of grades K-12 and also tutored Biology and Chemistry to many of my peers in college. My goal with everyone I tutor is the same, to build an understanding and appreciation of science.

...important to me. I often see my former students in professional positions and it gives me great satisfaction to see how they have matured, and some have told me that they wouldn’t be where they are today without my tutoring.

I have seen my non-major students become music teachers, work in optometry shops, and...

...you learn all around you everyday and my passion allows me to shed light on the subject in a different way that relates to students' life.

I love theatre, and I have performed in dozens...

Although I have learned many things I continue to learn about the unknown because I am also part of a research team at UIC that studies traumatic brain injury and Alzheimer's Disease. All of these experiences show that I have a passion for learning about a broad variety of topics, and I continue to push the boundaries of...

I am a recent medical school graduate and am currently employed as clinical research staff. I have always been very interested in sciences and human body through my entire academic life. I am here to share all the skills I have learned over the years to master the sciences!

I currently attend the University of Chicago, where I major in Political Science and Biology. When I'm not spending hours reading Nietzsche, I'm doing improv comedy and graphic design. I'm currently pursuing a career in advertising/consulting, and in my spare time I eat mini tacos and watch Louis CK stand-up comedy. ...

This education and work has given me extensive knowledge of anatomy and the human biological sciences. So, these are the areas where I can offer the most assistance.

From preschool to college, I actually loved going to school every day and learning, and I hope to bring that love to others, also!

...so I can challenge him or her to think critically about a given problem. On the flip side, I continually remind my students to critique and to question what I am presenting, especially if a point is unclear. This not only helps my students to gain a complete understanding, but it also drives me to improve how I explain a concept. My passion for being a tutor comes from my family. I am the oldest...

...oysters, the focus of my thesis research, I was also teaching hands-on Marine Science in a local elementary school. I then moved south to San Francisco where I had been working for three years working in informal science education. I love working with students and passing on my love and knowledge of Science and Spanish. I have been tutoring or teaching in both subjects since college and I am excited to continue to do so...

...that makes sense to them. My tutoring philosophy revolves around the Socratic method: namely, I try to help the student discover the subject for themselves versus me simply giving them the answers. I believe that (guided) personal discovery leads not only to greater understanding, but greater knowledge retention as well. Additionally, as someone who played Division III basketball in college, I have also been doing private basketball lessons where many of the same concepts, albeit...

...a tutor, I would emphasize the major points and push my student to ask questions, be attentive, and then be able to successfully teach me. The learning process can be difficult at times, as I explained earlier, can push a student away from an interesting and exciting subject. My focus would be to improve the student’s knowledge about the topic by discussing why it is important and highlighting potential benefits of understanding the material. By...

...about failing 3 consecutive exams and was on the verge of quitting. After our third session together she began to see improvements in her homework grades and was able to score an 88% on her math exams. To me the greatest highlight of my time at that institution was when we "high-fived" after she got her test score. I transferred to Queens University after high school graduation; there I was offered a position as a...
