...SAT, ACT, and MCAT. Since graduating in May with two degrees in biology and psychology, I have spent my time going through the medical school application process. During the upcoming year, I hope to help tutor those still in school not only to keep on my toes academically, but to help those who may be struggling with various subjects throughout their academic careers. There is no better feeling than watching someone have a eureka moment...

...medical student I am seeing how these subjects are 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...

...at an advanced level. I spend my free time playing soccer, volunteering at the Downtown Emergency Service Center (DESC) homeless shelter, playing the piano, hanging with friends and much more.

It is my philosophy to act more as a guide and push the student to come to the answers themselves!

...ways to approach complex concepts. For example, I might steer a writing student studying organic chemistry to explain a reaction as a narrative of molecular interactions, rather than beginning with a complex problem. In the context of shifting careers, I have also taken a number of standardized tests, including the SAT, ACT, GRE, and MCAT. My approach with these tests emphasizes strategy over content; a particular vocabulary word may or may not appear on the...

...program at Georgetown University in human physiology.

In my free time, I enjoy hiking, playing guitar, DJ-ing and cooking big meals for my friends. I look forward to seeing how I can help!... Our tutoring sessions will not be a lecture. I think the best way to learn is to teach someone else, and that is why I will tutor mostly through questioning. This allows you to reframe the material in a way perfectly tailored to your brain. It will increase recall and retention, and will expose the gaps in your knowledge. If you cannot explain a concept in your own words, you do not know it well enough. This will be easier than it sounds, I promise, and the rewards will be great.

...manufacturing, design and business development. Working with students to 'get the light bulb to turn on' is very rewarding and keeps me returning to the classroom. One-on-one tutoring has even greater rewards for the student, and is essential to maintaining their educational momentum. I believe that helping a student overcome a roadblock (academic or personal) requires a working relationship and rapport that only comes through a mutual goal of success, and lots of practice. Let's...

...Biology, I am also passionate about Math, Chemistry and English courses. Throughout college I also worked with a student in SAT preparation and AP Calculus AB.

...Biology. I have a strong background in the basic sciences and can provide a solid foundation in Biology, Chemistry and Physics. I believe strongly in a holistic approach to teaching because in my experience students are far more willing to learn when seemingly arcane subjects can be tied into their day to day life and their relevance concretely demonstrated. I delight in finding and applying these connections, and I look forward to teaching others to...

...recently, I have tutored high school students in Biology, Chemistry and Algebra. My favorite subject to tutor is Biology because it explains so much of nature and of human life. I love to cater my teaching style according to my student's need by making the subject matter interesting for them and relating it to the things that interest them the most to keep them engaged. My interests include playing tennis, scrapbooking, snowboarding, hiking, birdwatching, traveling,...
