Award-Winning Science Tutors serving Boston, MA

...math problems because I'm patient, fun, funny, understanding, and know how to explain topics in a wide variety of ways. My teaching style is unique. I first listen to my students and learn how they like to learn, and memorize new techniques and skills. After learning about my students, I devise strategies to best fit their study habits. I relate problems to what they like (always trying to make learning fun). I give students pointers...

...struggling in the upper level courses I was taking. I love science and medicine and I love teaching students to understand and appreciate how cool science can be. I believe that once you understand the concepts and how they fit into the larger framework, it makes memorizing a lot easier and it gives you the command of the material that enables you to do well on any exam. When I am not doing research or...

...school levels, and standardized test prep (SAT, ACT, PCAT, etc). I have been tutoring with Varsity Tutors since June 2018. While in undergrad, I was a college-level General and Organic Chemistry tutor, as well as a Chemistry laboratory instructor.

...philosophy on teaching has always been that fun is the best motivator. Learning should be an enjoyable and enriching experience. I also believe that answers should not be readily given. To truly grasp a subject material, students need to engage their critical thinking and problem solving skills throughout the learning process. No one ever said that learning and studying would be easy, but I am confident that I can help ease the process for other...

...over 5000 hours experience in online tutoring on different platforms. My computer science tutoring experience includes computer programming (C++/C/Java/Python) as well as data structures, algorithms, operating systems, and theory of computation. My tutoring approach is that I look for gaps in a student's understanding. Then we focus on plugging those gaps. I believe that even the most complex topics can be broken down into key concepts which can then be mastered. Mastering key concepts leads...

...say I clarify the most complex problems, transforming impossibly tedious and confounding coursework into an exciting and manageable challenge. I do this by relating the latest discoveries and personal anecdotes to the subject matter, making the ancient, esoteric theories tangible and fresh. When I am not reading and writing about science, or planning strategies to make math and science more accessible, I am playing with my dog, watching zombie movies or systematically sampling every slice...

I am currently in my first year in Boston Universitys Pardee School Master of Arts...

I graduated cum laude from Cornell University and currently work in academia. I love science and learning!

Let me help you learn to love learning and studying efficiently :).

...is to identify your weak points by watching you work through problems, to demonstrate a technique that can help you perform better, and then to help you implement the technique to successfully solve similar problems! Throughout my experience tutoring a wide variety of students in SAT and ACT, I have developed a database of methods to help students understand difficult concepts, for every student learns in different ways. During my free time, I am involved...

...to link your everyday interests to your studies! I've worked with medical students, reviewing information with them and putting a different spin on concepts in order to make those concepts clear. I've also worked with GED prep students who are working out information anew. I have a background in psychiatry, which serves as a testament to the patient, non-judgmental approach that I bring to every interaction. I enjoy medicine and I enjoy people, and therefore...

I believe that learning math and science can be fun and engaging for anyone, and my goal in every session is to try and make it so.

...I volunteered as a tutor for elementary students. I also tutored ESL to a refugee from South Sudan; we prepared for the citizenship exam (which he passed) and worked on his reading and speaking skills. My experience as well as my current education in Occupational Therapy enable me to adapt my teaching style for each student. I try to make lessons as interactive and rewarding as possible.
