Award-Winning Pre-Calculus Tutors serving Philadelphia, PA

...and helping others learn. Tutoring gives me the chance to make challenging subjects more accessible and to celebrate the "aha!" moments that build confidence and curiosity. I've worked with students from elementary to high schoolteaching coding at Code Ninjas and LeapCoderz, and tutoring math and science through UPchieve, a nonprofit serving under-resourced communities. I tutor a range of subjects, including Pre-Algebra, Algebra I and II, Geometry, Trigonometry, Pre-Calculus, Calculus, Physics, Statistics, and Microeconomics. I especially...

I am currently a graduate student in Chemical Engineering at the University of Delaware. I am working on using magnetic and flow fields to create advanced materials by directing the self-assembly process of nanoparticles . I have tutored students in Chemistry, Physics and Math all throughout undergraduate and graduate work. I truly enjoy breaking material down into its core components that allows the students to understand complicated information.

...Biostatistics. I like to let the student guide my teaching style. In my experience, each student needs individualized tutoring. Personally, I am a visual learner, but I know that not everyone learns that way, so I accommodate to each student's needs. My first student with ADD showed me the range of needs each student can have. Other students have different needs, and I like to push my students to their full potential. Communication is key...

...students of all ages. Past tutoring subjects include: Pre-algebra, Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, Pre-calculus, AB calculus, Spanish, French, AP US History, and SAT. My favorite subject is probably history as I think understanding the context of things should strongly influence the way they are understood. I particularly enjoy tutoring math because I firmly believe that all students can master any academic subject if they put their minds to it, and that with the right prompting and...

I am here to share the knowledge I learned while getting my degree to help others achieve their academic goals.

...and academic success---which is why I am so very interested in working with you through Varsity Tutors! I currently have a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology and a Bachelor of Arts degree in African Studies from Yale University. I deferred admission to gain relevant work experience before starting medical school at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine as an MD/MPH candidate student. My experience in the biological sciences includes extensive biology research in...

...way. I will strive hard to discover a learning style that will ensure continuing success and development in and out of the classroom. I'm completely invested in seeing each student I tutor grow and become successful students and will not settle for any less. I have also been a choreographer for 5 years and a swim teacher for 1 year, both jobs of which I work with children in 3rd-12th grade. In other words, I...

...teaching elementary and middle school math and science at my local library. As a tutor, I'm passionate about math and science: this includes subjects from elementary math/science to AP courses like AP Biology, AP Calculus AB, and AP Environmental Science. I've also scored very well on standardized exams (35 on the ACT, National Merit Finalist recognition for the PSAT), so I can also extend my services for students who need to prepare for such exams....

...you might find in a college math class. My favorite subjects to teach are probably the basic building blocks of calculus. It gets somewhat of a bad rap since it's taught mostly at the college level, but on a conceptual level, it's actually quite simple! The way all of the different elements fit together to create an incredibly diverse and fundamental branch of math is quite beautiful. Outside of math and programming, I am an...

...the University of Pennsylvania. I have not settled on my concentration yet, but I am interested in marketing, finance, and law. I tutor several subjects but I am most passionate about math, history, and writing. As a current student myself, I understand the value of students feeling comfortable in their work and having a positive learning experience. I want to help my students achieve their goals and develop their skills, from standardized tests to writing...

...I have tutored lower school math and high school physics. My favorite subjects in school are math, music, and science and those are also my favorite subjects to teach. It is so satisfying for both the student and I to see the student's hard work come to fruition through a good test score or just a clearly better understanding of the topic. Learning should be fun - not just sitting at a table cramming information...

...of my academic career to studying math and statistics. While I enjoy this subject, I know not all share this feeling and that it can be a very frustrating subject at times. My strategy as a tutor is to help students understand the "why" behind each concept and not just rely on memorization. I also want to show students how math can be helpful and applied to everyday life. I have a Bachelor of Science...

Hi! I am a recent graduate with a BS in Chemistry and am looking forward to teaching tips and tricks that helped me to succeed in my courses. I have enjoyed offering advice and guiding others by participating in various activities through school and church. I am on the premed track so I hope to tutor high school and college level physics, chemistry and MCAT topics.

...exploring everything the city has to offer because I really am a city girl at heart. I believe that everybody is unique, so I try to adapt my tutoring style to fit every student's individual needs and personality. I try to connect the material to the real world because when you can relate to what you are learning you will understand and enjoy it more. With my help, we can turn a once dreaded subject...

...stories in December. Given this, I consider myself to be the perfect tutor for all your writing needs as you traverse the magical, messy process of creative writing. Moreover, I believe words create a home within us and they're important as they open up spaces for us as human beings to wrestle with the world around us. As an educator, I constantly reflect on the intrinsic power of words and how I can hold space...

...studied abroad in Singapore at Nanyang Technological University as a college Sophomore, speak Fluent Russian, and have taken a broad range of subjects including: Statistics, History of Capitalism, History of Science, Astronomy, Intercultural Behavior, etc. I think learning is a life-long experience that should extend beyond the classroom. Therefore, I am a big proponent of holistic education and critical thinking so students can have the tools they need when they face the world. Although I...

...In college, I took classes in logic, number theory, code theory, game theory, linear and non-linear algebra, linear programming, computer science (Python, C++, Mathematica, Matlab, etc.), music, and more. I have taken the tests, done the work, know the material, and am passionate about these subjects. I have a good way of communicating and presenting the topics, to interest people in them the way they have always intrigued me. I start by assessing where the...

...through and including freshman year university physics, and advanced undergraduate Thermodynamics, although I have finished the core curriculum for fulfillment of the major. My research has been published at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, and my ongoing projects at Drexel University are in relation to the biophysics of Sickle Cell Anemeia. In addition, I have built a microfluidic spectrophotometer out of an inverted microscope and box of scrap laboratory metal to read in blood samples' oxygenation...

...in Mathematics. I tutor a wide range of topics, but I am currently most passionate about teaching the SAT: both the Math section and the Reading & Writing sections. I attune my teaching style based on the needs of the student. First I have them take diagnostic tests to demonstrate their relative skill, and through a bit of trial and error I can understand which learning styles they are most comfortable with. Additionally, my teaching...

...love getting to share what I know about the subjects I tutor. I think people learn best when they feel positively about their relationship with education, so I focus heavily on adapting how I teach to fit each student's academic and personal needs. A love of learning has really enriched my life so far, so my goal is to make my teaching give students a reason to enjoy learning at least a little bit more....
