...2021. I was previously an engineer and graduated with a bachelor's and master's of biomedical engineering from Arizona State University. I recently completed three years of my MD curriculum and am now returning to tutoring during my MBA studies. I struggled throughout high school until finally preparing for the SAT and ACT, so I'm adept with picking up just what you're struggling with - I was there once, too. Now having performed in the upper...

...for General Chemistry and Organic Chemistry I and II. Since college, I've spent time as a volunteer tutor for high school and middle school students from disadvantaged backgrounds. I love teaching and I think there's nothing quite as exciting as helping someone truly understand a topic they've been struggling with. My favorite subjects to tutor are Chemistry, Biology, Algebra, and Anatomy. I also enjoy helping undergraduate students with the process of applying to medical school...

...semesters, I have officially worked as a tutor at a community college, where I handled anything from one-on-one tutoring to presenting chemistry applications to a classroom of students. I have had a lot of positive feedback and commendations from students that I have tutored; one time in particular a professor came up and thanked me because of their students mentioning of how they liked the way I had explained the topic by relating it to...

...School, and College coursework--not to mention the daunting task of college applications--can benefit immensely. I am committed to professionalism as a tutor, and I guarantee visible progress in my pupils; but I'm a regular person, too. In between Chemistry labs or Literature classes, you might find me reading a book on Heritage Hill, or walking my dog with my fiance. I am a recent graduate of the University of Arizona, wherein I achieved Summa Cum...

...and I'm not even 40 yet! But through everything I've done, I've always been a problem solver. This is what led me back to engineering after so walking so many other paths. I want to pass on my love problem solving in math and science. I'd also like to encourage more young people to gain general problem solving and logical thinking skills. With more young brains awake and working, humanity might be able to save...

I am a high school math teacher. I teach calculus, statistics and computer science.

...discovering their learning styles in order to better motivate and equip them to reach their academic potential. The subjects I specialized in were Mathematics, Sciences, and English Composition, and I also currently tutor Middle and High School students. I personally enjoy equipping others to learn and understand concepts that at first glance may seem daunting. My students' mastery of the subject brings personal satisfaction in knowing that I helped them learn. I strongly believe in...

...goes on and they see that their hard work persistence has finally paid off. While working my way through college I took on substitute teaching positions at high schools near my college. I also did some substituting at high and junior high level after I retired. During my career as with the FBI, I also taught law and law enforcement classes at the junior college level. Additionally, after my retirement I became a flight instructor...

As a facilitator I have the opportunity to build the desire to learn with the eventual reward apparent in the students development for a stronger future. Teaching takes me to a place where my passion and dedication for chemistry can be useful to others. Teaching is a privilege, a future- oriented profession with the responsibility of providing the right tools to guide the student for the rest of their life.

...positive feedback in course evaluations and have indicated that they enjoy my teaching style and appreciate my use of real world examples to strengthen their understanding of basic chemical principles. In addition, I feel that I pay great attention to my students so that I can quickly identify when there is a lack of understanding and can adapt my explanation with additional examples until I am confident that the student fully understands the topic. My...

...treasured. I have a Master's degree in Mathematics as well as a year in post graduate studies in Computer Science. My background includes Advanced Placement workshops in Calculus AB & BC, and Computer Science and Statistics. As well, I have participated in many National Science Foundation opportunities in Math and Computer Science. I have taught AP Statistics, AP Calculus AB and BC, and Computer Science A and AB (when it was offered). My rate of...

We all learn differently, but in the end we all still learn the same things.

I am an experienced scientist and higher education professional. I have tutored students from diverse backgrounds in the areas of chemistry, biology, and executive functioning (study skills and time management).

...tutoring centers around practice problems and working through problems. I also love pointing out resources to students in order to empower them to become individual learners. Tutoring is simply a supplement, in my opinion. I think the best tutors are able to walk through a problem with the student and show them in real-time their own thinking process. On a personal note, I will be starting medical school this upcoming fall. I have experience with...

...to read for comprehension, write using evidence, problem solve using diagrams, and finally, study using a strategy. When any deficiencies have been addressed within the subject area, then the student becomes capable of understanding new concepts and then continuing successful progress on their own. As a tutor, I will make every effort to identify the student's deficiencies that need to be strengthened while maintaining an understanding of current concepts are approached. I look forward to...

...what people are saying while they are saying it, which has helped a lot, but often I need to write things down, or perform some physical motion. So when tutoring, I switch up visual/auditory/kinesthetic approaches, and also try to ground things to reality: why learn something in the first place? For me I generally need to connect new information to old information; find a point of solid understanding and trace a path from there. My...
