I am a very experienced high school and middle school teacher/tutor, as I have been tutoring or teaching in some capacity since August of 2010. I have always loved making personal connections with students and helping them make daunting studies (such as math or test preparation) more approachable. My favorite part of my job is empowering students to be more independent learners and helping them develop confidence in their abilities.

...from University of Texas. I have extensive background and experiences in several fields including Mathematics, Physics and Engineering. I am interested in sharing my knowledge with students, in helping them understand the subject and solving problems. I believe a good tutor can provide guidance, leading students through a thought process in solving problems. A good tutor will motivate the student to think and propose his or her own solutions and develop independent learning.... “What is teaching...

I got my degree in Physics with a minor in Political Science from Wheaton College in MA. I tutor Physics, Calculus, some Computer Science, Latin, and Writing. I particularly enjoy tutoring Writing because I spend most of my time these days writing anyways. I would describe my tutoring style as very dynamic and example-driven. I'm pretty good at coming up with exercises and methods on the fly, which has served me well so far.

...together to solve problems. If one student is having some difficulties at a certain point or the code doesn't seem to be working as it should, I like to encourage everyone to contribute to solving the problem. This teaches them to work together, the same as they would if they were working on a project for a business, and to solve problems that can be encountered in coding. It's always great when a student is...

I am very passionate about helping others succeed!

...II during college shaped my educational philosophy of cultivating individual relationships with my students to foster a supportive learning environment, empowering them to explore material from various perspectives. I believe that learning occurs most effectively when students are gently pushed past the limits of their current understanding, enabling them to synthesize new concepts on their own and develop new confidence in their abilities as learners. I am most excited to assist students in Biology, Chemistry,...

...I involved is a subcritical water dehydrooxygenation of lignin to methylphenols, which are then converted to resins and coatings. The goal of my project is to chemically characterize the residue from the dehydrooxygenation and determine a possible mechanism for the reaction. For example, is the residue simply unreacted lignin, smaller breakdown products, or material which was cleaved and then recondensed? During his project, I gained analytical skills in gas and liquid chromatography (including with pyrolysis),...

...primarily involves understanding the needs of a student and the level of detail required for their course. I integrate the needs of the student and their personal learning styles to encourage an organized self-regulated process that a student can maintain after the appointment. When mentoring students, I employ several different modes of learning such as models, videos, concept mapping, illustration, etc. to provide a comprehensive understanding of the topic. Additionally, I draw from my research...

...a TA for Physics II: Electricity and Magnetism at MIT, and I tutored in math and science in high school. I scored a perfect score on the SAT Math section twice, and have taken 11 AP tests with an average score of 4.7. I believe the best way to learn math is through challenging problems, and gaining confidence in yourself when you find that you understand those problems. I am passionate about learning, and I...

Hi! My name is Adriana, and I'm an MIT undergrad studying Urban Planning. I loved math in science in school, but know that it can be frustrating and easy to dislike when taught in a way that is difficult to understand, or when it seems useless and pointless to learn. My goal is to get students not only to perform well in these subjects, but to fully comprehend and enjoy them.

Being the oldest sibling in my family, I am very flexible and have the ability to cater to all kinds of teaching and learning needs. One of the things that motivate me is getting my tutees and students to the "Eureka!" moment and the happiness that comes with it from understanding the concept and overcoming that...

As a master's student and former medical student, I know how challenging academics can be. I also know how having a helping hand, a guidance through the confusion, can help one gain confidence in themselves to excel.
