Sreya
BA University of Michigan-Ann Arbor
6+ Years Tutoring

I'm a college student attending the University of Michigan and I'm majoring in chemistry and computer science. I have two years of extensive experience tutoring high schoolers in chemistry and all subjects of the SAT and ACT. I can also say that I understand completely how difficult the process of test prep and high school chemistry can be because I recently survived the whole process myself having taken IB chem and the ACT/SAT in the last 1-2 years and studying and prepping extensively for them. That being said, I'm always super eager not just to tutor students in those subjects, but also to offer the best advice and guidance I can in tackling those challenges as a high schooler and as someone planning for college. I believe it's super important as a tutor not just to spoon-feed answers but to teach how to problem-solve, so I take care to solidify our understanding of the methods to approach a problem. Most of all, I try to be as flexible and communicative as possible.

As a classroom teacher, I utilized strategies to create collaborative classroom environments where each student achieved maximal success and learning. I also utilized a variety of differentiated teaching strategies to make this possible. As a teacher, I also had numerous opportunities to tutor students and help them master concepts after class.

Nina
BOE University of Michigan-Ann Arbor
5+ Years Tutoring

Hi, I'm Nina! I am currently a junior majoring in Electrical Engineering! I have experience working at a tutoring center and have done one-on-one tutoring in the past. Through tutoring, I have enjoyed seeing students understand new concepts and grow in their knowledge of the subjects. While I am flexible to teach a range of subjects, I specialize in Math, and can teach from Pre-K Math to Calculus 1 & SAT Math. When teaching, I prefer taking a hands-on approach, rather than a lecture/presentation style, allowing the student to recall the new information and interact with the problems. I make an effort to keep my classes focused, open to questions, and pressure-free. To relax outside of work and school, I listen to music, bike, and spend time with friends.
