...medical school. Why I tutor: I've been tutoring other students since I was in high school, but I've been a tutee pretty much since I started public school when I was seven.

...passion and love for education. I began tutoring at the age of 15 as a freshman in high school. My sentiments towards helping other develop and grow academically only grew from there as I began a tutoring club in my junior year of high school to tutor science, technological, engineering, mathematical subjects to underfunded, low-performing...

I tutor kids of all ages, and specialize in those with ADD/ADHD, Asperger's and Autism Spectrum Disorder, as well as those with emotional and cognitive disorders. My preferred subjects are test preparation (SAT, ACT, GRE, etc.), Math, Science, and English. ... I think it's very important that I relate to students on a personal level so they truly understand that I want them to do well. Once that bond is made, we can work together toward a common goal. I also determine early on how students learn. For example, some kids are visual learners, while others need to have questions read to them. It's amazing to see the transformation in a student when you hit upon that student's learning style. Also, I think it's important to be able to recognize when a student is getting overwhelmed and you need to step back and take the pressure off.

I am currently a student at the University of North Carolina, majoring in chemistry. I offer tutoring in mathematics (through AP calculus BC) and chemistry (through college analytical). My hope is to help students gain complete confidence in their ability to master concepts. ... A lot of teachers emphasize the importance of practice. Practice is great once one fully understands the underlying concepts. My job, as a tutor, is to take the student's basic understanding of a subject gained from class and expand it to an expert-like level. I believe in quality over quantity and constant review of former topics.
