Award-Winning Science Tutors serving Washington DC

...developed a deep interest in how people learn and share knowledge with each other. Over the course of college, I pursued this interest by working with communities to research and address gaps in knowledge. From taking service-learning, education courses, I began tutoring students to continually pursue my goal in building more knowledgeable communities. My community-based work informs how I approach tutoring, infused with collaborative principles of working together to solve problems. While this mindset may...

During my undergraduate studies I managed an after school mentoring and tutoring program serving 200 at-risk Chicago Public School students in West Humboldt Park, Chicago. Upon graduation, I served as an elementary and middle school teacher through the Teach For America program in Washington, D.C.

In addition to tutoring a wide range of topics, I can also speak Korean to those students who may speak that language. My strongest subject for tutoring...

...Ph.D. degree in Nutritional Biology at UC Davis in March, 2016. Ten years training, research, and teaching at two elite universities make me a competitive candidate for this position. I grew up in a family of teachers, a team with members from kindergartens to universities. As a little a child, my favorite game was to mimic my mom to give a lecture about what I learned at school, but I was not certain at a...

...College and Columbia University and a decade of experience performing scientific research (I've even sailed on five oceanographic research expeditions!). As such, I enjoy being able to demonstrate to students how the math and science concepts they're learning in the classroom are applied in real scientific investigations. When working with students I use an inquiry-based approach to gently guide them toward the correct solution. This gives them ownership of their learning while ensuring that they...

I believe that while everyone learns differently, everyone is capable of learning. It's important that we use all opportunities to not only learn, but share in that learning with other individuals. I'm here to watch that lightbulb of understanding turn on for as many people as possible.

...all is to give back to the community, especially in the area that I feel I can be most beneficial. Students are the most rewarding to work with since they have a learning mindset and they have fertile minds, not clutter with the day to day demands of a work schedule. But the greatest reward is that you have given them a good start for a successful life. Describe your experience working with students. I...

...Mannel. I graduated from the University of Virginia in May with a Bachelor of Science in Biology. As an older brother, former babysitter, and camp counselor, I have always enjoyed working with children of all ages. It was my own youthful fascination with the natural world which led me to study science - the kid in me is what helps me connect with children. I place an emphasis on giving each child the tools they...

Apart from tutoring, I enjoy walking along...

...Georgia Tech, where I also acquired an MS in mathematics along the way. During my time, I worked as a teaching assistant for introductory level physics, i.e., Mechanics and Electrodynamics, as well as a number of upper-level physics courses. Primarily, I helped students work through and understand homework problems and in-class exercises. To understand physics, even at an introductory college level, some mastery of mathematics is required. It is always a pleasure to guide students...

I aspire equally to knowledge and goodness. I am committed to encouraging students and adults to respect, inspire, and learn. Education is a force multiplier and promotes a balance of intellectual curiosity, engagement, leadership, and service in the pursuit of excellence: academic, civic, and moral.

I strive for thoroughness in my work. I specialize in math and physics, and I believe that the most fulfilling way to understand these subjects is to focus on the fundamentals. Building these subjects up from their root is my style, because they rely so heavily upon the basics. I will start at A and finish at Z, ensuring a great understanding of everything in between.
