I love learning and I am passionate about helping students, so they can progress forward with their studies. My hope is that each student will learn to love the subject matter as much as I do. I have always tried to help others who were struggling in class, and after I completed my degree, many people would ask me for help on the classes that I had already completed. I have formally been a tutor for several years.I am currently working towards my PhD in Immunology. I tutor a wide assortment of classes including Statistics, Science, Reading, Medicine, Math, Immunology, Microbiology, English, Chemistry, Biology, Biochemistry, Genetics, as well as Algebra 1 and 2. My favorite subjects to tutor include Biology, Immunology, Microbiology, Reading, and Statistics. In my free time, I enjoy reading material pertaining to science. I find the way that they tie into each other to be fascinating. Statistics is interesting to me, because I love the fact that it is a practical math that I find myself using every day. My teaching philosophy is that learning is fun, and I strive my hardest to instill that same passion in all subjects being pursued. Outside of academia, I enjoy volunteering, skiing and hiking.

Aidan

AP Physics 1 Tutor • +18 Subjects

I am a graduate Mechanical Engineering student at Binghamton University with a strong passion for physics, math, chemistry, and most other sciences. Since these are courses I have the greatest amount of interest and success in, I am eager and excited to contribute my knowledge to those who are struggling. I have a strong track record of tutoring these subjects for about 5 years, and I love to incorporate humor into lessons!My favorite topic to tutor, by far, is physics. I have a bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering which has exposed me to a multitude of courses and projects involving knowledge of advanced physics concepts, and has given me plenty of experience tutoring my peers and project teammates. Physics is the most interesting topic to me because it highlights how physical processes in our world are governed by complex mathematical formulas. These formulas allow us to model, simulate, and analyze concepts of forces, motion, electricity, waves, and many more, which we use to build incredible technologies that we all are able to enjoy today.
