I've been tutoring or teaching since 2010, first as an economics and logic tutor at Hartwick College, and then as a math teacher at Salisbury School. I'd love to help you with whatever material you're struggling with :)

My name is Yijin Wang and the energetic and passionate incoming freshman working towards a BS in Applied and Computational Mathematical Science at the University of Washington.

...that test. I am an adamant believer that everyone is a life-long learner, and no matter the subject everyone can learn and understand how a certain discipline views the world. I believe that a positive attitude, a little hard work, and developing personalized self-learning strategies are the most effective way to master any topic. Outside of tutoring, I love to swim, explore outdoors, read, draw, and appreciate new art and music with my friends.

...the merely knowledge itself, to me is more important in determining your educational success. My goal for tutoring is not only improve students' knowledge in the content area, I would love to help students feel confident and offer advices to be successful in the future. If you have any questions or if you would like to schedule lessons, please feel free to contact me. I will typically respond to messages during the same business day,...

...degree. I believe that my success as a student studying mathematics stems from the passion I have for the subject. For the majority of people, math isn't the type of subject one can simply read a book on and understand how to solve the problems. It takes hard work over a long period of time, making mistakes and working with knowledgeable mentors to correct those mistakes. With the experience I've gained over years of doing...

When I tutor, I am working to share my excitement for learning. Each student is different and deserves to have a personalized experience, and I take pride in identifying my students' learning styles and tailoring their sessions to fit their relationship with academics. My primary goal is to help my students achieve theirs.

My philosophy of tutoring is to help students achieve their academic goals and help them become comfortable about their learning processes. I have experience working as a writing tutor at University of Washington for the past two years and am comfortable tutoring in math and science from my recent study for medical college entrance exam (MCAT).

...at Dartmouth College looking to help students of all ages find success in mathematics, essay writing, and test prep. Throughout my studies and test-taking experiences, I have learned how to gather patience, identify strengths and weaknesses and determine which strategies work best for each individual. I look forward to instilling students with a sense of confidence as well as the drive to pursue their goals and try new things along the way!

I have been helping students excel through tutoring in many forms for over a decade. I have worked with students from pre-K to 12th grade in math, science, and reading. I graduated from the University of Michigan in 2015 with my Bachelors in Mechanical Engineering. I am so happy to continue helping students understand their coursework better at Varsity Tutors.

...Chemistry major at Georgia Tech. I have experience teaching through working as a Teaching Assistant for Organic Chemistry I and II and Synthesis Lab I for the Georgia Tech BEST Study Abroad Program and through volunteering at STEM educational outreach events as president of the Georgia Tech chapter of Student Affiliates of the American Chemical Society. I enjoy teaching as a way to share my passion for science and believe I offer a unique perspective...

...I believe that a love of learning is one of the most important qualities a person can have. While I enjoy tutoring a broad range of subjects, I find tutoring Statistics and Economics especially rewarding because so many students believe that they don't have aptitude in the subject, only to find out that they just haven't had the right learning experience yet. In my spare time, I enjoy messing around with coding projects, watching baseball,...

...young, I've been very good at tutoring. Helping others with course work in school was the most common thing. Some of my friends even asked me to help their little sisters or brothers during long breaks, and the outcome was always outstanding. I always take two steps while tutoring others. Firstly, I will understand how the student think about the problem. Secondly, based on student's own idea, I will guide him/her to get the answer....

...tutoring and mentoring students was working at the Center for Teaching and Learning (CTL) while an undergraduate student at Knox College. During my time at the CTL, I helped students in the subject areas of biochemistry, biology, and chemistry. The experience at Knox trained me on how to effectively communicate with students so that they can succeed in their coursework! When I began my graduate education at the University of Missouri-Columbia, I wanted to continue...

...lesson plans, organizing work flow and interacting with the students. Education is a passion of mine and creating a safe, friendly and productive environment for my students to learn is a top priority. I am a grad student in Environmental Engineering expecting to wrap up soon. During high school and undergrad, I helped out a few students with their assignments. In grad school, I was a teaching assistant for a junior and senior level course....

...of the early segments discussed the scientific application of an autonomous, torpedo-shaped device developed to track great white sharks off the Atlantic Coast. I found this so profoundly interesting because it combined my love of engineering with my fascination of science. I realized that if I could do something like this for living, then, as my grandfather says, the happiest people are the folks who make a profession out of something they love to do...

...programming classes through Coding With Kids. At Vanderbilt University, I am pursuing degrees in Computer Science, Mechanical Engineering, and Mathematics. I tutor mostly math, physics, and chemistry, but I like physics most because of the problem solving aspects. My teaching philosophy is to focus on the basic concepts and make sure those are cemented, then to later focus on the nuances of problem solving. Outside of academia, I am interested in the NBA and the...

...matter can be so specific and have dynamic changes in properties with seemingly minor changes. This is especially evident when studying stereochemistry, comparing medicines that can be life-saving or toxic based on the orientation of the molecule. My hobbies include drawing, music, jogging, painting, and finding new places to nap. I thoroughly enjoy videogames that engage critical thinking skills, strategy and planning (not a fan of Call of Duty or anything along those lines...). Available...
