Zack
BS Georgia Institute of Technology
2+ Years Tutoring

After an 11-year hiatus, I am excited to return to one-on-one tutoring in high school and college-level precalculus, calculus, and physics. My goal is to build students' confidence in subjects that often feel overwhelming by identifying the root of their challenges - whether it's a forgotten foundational skill or a mismatch in teaching and learning styles - and helping them work through those roadblocks with clarity and patience. I discovered my passion for tutoring in high school through volunteer mentoring and later assisted classmates in physics at my teacher's request. Since then, I have supported students in courses ranging from geometry to upper-level calculus. I am currently tutoring while pursuing my next full-time opportunity, most recently having worked for a railroad construction products supplier.

BA Georgia Institute of Technology-Main Campus
5+ Years Tutoring

I am currently a physics student at the Georgia Institute of Technology. Throughout my high school and college career, I have been tutoring people of all ages a variety of different subjects, but I specialize in math and physics. I am a firm believer that one cannot explain a concept to a 5-year-old, then they do not understand it enough. When I teach my students, I try my best to make sure they can achieve this deep level of understanding in whatever subject they are studying. I have tutored professionally for Mathnasium where I tutored math in all levels ranging from algebra to single variable calculus, and have tutored privately in subjects such as quantum mechanics, and introductory physics. In my free time, I enjoy playing ultimate frisbee, going on hikes, and writing music.

I am a graduate from the University of Georgia where I received a Bachelor of Arts in Cognitive Science with a focus on Artificial Intelligence/Computing and Psychology. Throughout College and even in high school, I loved helping my peers and those around me achieve and found myself in many situations where I helped friends in one-on-one or group study sessions as well as joining a plethora of groups and associations that would connect me to students who needed a little extra help. My path in college allowed me to explore many different subjects in a variety of fields, but I find myself most passionate about Life Sciences, all levels of Math, Software Development in Java, Psychology, and Philosophy. I also enjoy aiding in the studying for Standardized Testing as I have always enjoyed the process of test taking and have acquired many skills and tips that could help anyone become a more skilled test taker. I believe education to be a cornerstone in becoming a fulfilled person in life, and this belief is what encourages and motivates me to help others further excel, prosper, and achieve all their goals in life. I believe everyone has the aptitude for learning anything they want, and I want to bring this talent out of all of my students to show them what has been hiding within all along.

Helping people succeed is immensely rewarding for me, and I have been tutoring students ever since I was in high school. Initially, I only tutored Physics, but as I progressed through my undergraduate degree in Biochemistry, I began to tutor students in General Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, as well as Calculus. I personally love Organic Chemistry, but I definitely understand those who disagree and look forward to helping you succeed and maybe even enjoy it a little!

Taha
MS Clark Atlanta University • MS Mercer University
2+ Years Tutoring

After teaching for fifteen years from grade six to college level students there is one truth I have learned. Learning can only occur if the student has a point of reference. As teachers we have the responsibility to evaluate our student's level of knowledge and to increase their level of understanding, comprehension, analysis, and diagnosis of the subject we teach. Furthermore, I believe that a teacher is morally obligated to enter the classroom with only the highest of expectations for each and every one of her students. Thus, the teacher maximizes the positive benefits that naturally come along with any self-fulfilling prophecy. With dedication, perseverance, and hard work, her students will rise to the occasion. I aim to bring an open mind, a positive attitude, and high expectations to the classroom each day. I believe that I owe it to my students, as well as the community, to bring consistency, diligence, and warmth to my job in the hope that I can ultimately inspire and encourage such traits in the children as well.

I am a freshman Computer Science major enrolled in the McCormick School of Engineering at Northwestern University. I have a passion for teaching students, and I am experienced with having to give one-on-one guidance in teaching many concepts. Tutoring is very rewarding for me because I am driven to help others and give whatever knowledge I have gained over the years in every field. I also have experience dealing with situations in which students are not quickly or readily grasping concepts, and I have developed the patience to handle these situations. Teaching is just as rewarding for the student as it is for me, because I am thrilled when I see others achieve, and I would love to be part of the process. In addition to high school AP courses and test prep, I have taken college level multivariable calculus, linear algebra, physics electricity/magnetism and mechanics, computer programming (c++, matlab, LISP/Scheme), Dynamics of Systems, and Mechanics of Systems.
