Award-Winning Tutors from Purdue University-Main Campus

I've taught accounting at all levels for many years and have had numerous one-on-one interactions with students. One of my greatest satisfactions in teaching is when the student has the "aha" moment when the concept we're working on clicks with them and they "get it" now. I try my best to break down the complex and make it easier to understand, and with accounting that is a key to gaining confidence in solving the problems.

I have been a classroom teacher at the elementary level for three years and am highly dedicated to what I do. I believe my job, as an instructor, is to create an atmosphere that fosters learning. I am an instructor because I am dedicated to guiding students through the learning process, in addition to a passion for the material I present. One of the best ways to foster learning is to demonstrate those feelings to my students. I encourage learning by creating a relaxed environment for students, stimulating conversation about concepts being presented and organizing material in a way that makes it easiest to understand. I treat subject matter as interconnected, emphasizing that everything students are learning fits together into a holistic understanding of the world, from which they develop their personal worldview. Finally, I believe that respect for my students is one of the most important things I can show - not only to encourage their openness to the material I am presenting, but also to inspire them to respect each other and all other people.One of the most important concepts I hope to convey to students is that learning is a process that never ends. For me, the learning process includes improving myself professionally. I want to read more about formal learning theories to understand more thoroughly how learning takes place. Finally, I plan to experiment with different methods and means of presenting information to students I tutor in order to improve the learning atmosphere I create for each individual student.

I am an enthusiastic educator with over 15 years of teaching experience including a wide range of Language Arts such as Reading, Reading Comprehension, Writing, English, English as a Second Language. (ESL) for children and adults I have a Bachelor of Arts degree from Purdue University and am TESOL certified. My passion is teaching adults who have immigrated to this country and want to improve their English in their business and daily lives. With children, I teach English often for their first experience, helping them grow to be fluent speakers. My goal is to create a relaxed environment that is stimulating, encouraging, and adaptive to the varied needs of the students. I utilize interesting and interactive curricula, incorporating continuous conversation and speaking throughout the lesson.I am a mother and a grandmother with a varied career in education and the business world, as a marketing and sales professional in the software industry. I love books and I play tennis every chance I get! As an ESL and Language Arts teacher, I hope to inspire my students to love learning as I have experienced the joy of exchanging cultural backgrounds. I have learned as much as I have taught.

I have always enjoyed teaching students various subjects. I particularly enjoy seeing the response when the student truly understands the topic. I like to focus on finding ways to make sure the student UNDERSTANDS the topic rather than simply learning to memorize the facts. I find that they are always able to retain the knowledge more that way.I especially focus on teaching students to focus on reaching their long term goals in addition to just learning the material needed at the moment.I graduated from Purdue University with a BSEE degree and have worked at Motorola in technical roles as well as an Engineering manager where I managed and mentored junior engineers. I have taught all the subjects and test prep to my daughters throughout their education as well.I thoroughly enjoy working with students and can't wait to help more people reach their potentials.

My personal teaching philosophy in Nursing education and leadership, is that of complete transformational empowerment. Even in the face of our current global Covid posture, I am elated to be able to still lend my expertise, in a remote fashion. My passion is servant and helping others reach their goal of becoming a nurse. I have over 27 years of nursing and healthcare experience. I currently hold as ADN, from Valencia College, a BSN from Mountain State University, and an MSN in Nursing Administration from Kaplan University/Purdue Global. I specialize in Nursing Education/Health care specialties and certifications.

I received my Bachelor of Arts in Agricultural with a focus on Agricultural Economics and Spanish. I also received my Master of Arts in Theology & Education with a focus on biblical studies, deaconess ministry (ministry of care and compassion), and psychology/education of children and teens. Additionally, I have valid Texas teacher certifications in teaching all core subjects, grades EC-4, and grades 4-8. Lastly, I have Texas teacher certifications for teaching ESL and Spanish (grades K-12). It has been my blessing to have tutored children in English while in the Peace Corps-Ecuador (1 yr.) and as a missionary with Cristo El Salvador Church and School in Puerto Barrios, Guatemala (4 yrs). While in Puerto Barrios, I also taught Calvert correspondence classes to missionary children (1 yr). It has also been my joy to have tutored working-class adults, university students, and children in Thailand looking to improve their English (15 yrs.). I have tutored Chinese English learners as well as Chinese dyslexic English learners privately in Shenzhen, China as well (7 yrs.). It's also been my privilege to teach Bible and Christian Education classes to adults and children of all ages while serving in Guatemala, Thailand, China, and the US, including Hispanic teens living in a shelter for unaccompanied youth caught at the US-Mexican border. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about teaching Phonemic Awareness, Phonics, Reading, Writing, Grammar, and Mechanics of English to both struggling students and those who are at grade level. In my experience helping struggling students, it is vital to know in which areas they struggle and then focus the tutoring sessions on those areas. I enjoy tutoring children and adults in beginner and intermediate Spanish as well. I am a firm proponent of education, believing it to be absolutely necessary for an improved quality of life, and I try to impart this appreciation to all of my students. In my spare time, I enjoy developing my personal spiritual growth, reading that which enriches my life, walking, connecting with friends and family all over the world, and helping those in need.

I am a retired Mechanical Engineer looking to help students of all ages in mathematics, physical sciences, and engineering subjects (STEM). My education includes a BSME from the University of Delaware & MSME from Purdue University. I am also the father of two children who have recently graduated college and now how successful profession careers, which I like to claim was a result of some help from my tutoring. As an engineer, I believe basic knowledge in STEM subjects are critical need in today's world. Many students are often put off or become overwhelmed by this material because it is not taught with; i) enough enthusiasm, ii) positive reinforcement, iii) practice by the learner, iv) involvement of the learner, and v) examples of how the subject matter can be put to practical use. My tutoring methods try to include all five. I am most passionate about mathematics (algebra, GED math, college math, and calculus). I also enjoy prepping students for Standardize Math Tests.

I am a sophomore at Purdue University working towards a Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering and a minor in Communications and Global Engineering. I specialize in tutoring STEM subjects to middle school and high school students, especially Algebra, Geometry, and Physics.

I work with an interactive teaching style and am especially flexible with online tutoring formats.

I am currently working as a Special Education Teacher in Fall River, Massachusetts. All in all I have about 6 years of teaching experience and I try really hard to make learning interesting and applicable to my students, no matter the subject. In my free time, I love spending time with my yellow lab, Gibson and taking him on hikes. I also really enjoy watching New England sports teams and spending time with my family.

I am a graduate of Purdue University (BS--Physics) and The University of Illinois (MS & PhD--Physics). I also studied Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics as a graduate at Cambridge University in England.I have taught and/or tutored mathematics and science in California, Kansas, Florida, and Missouri. It seems that I've always loved math and science.Now, I especially enjoy helping others understand those subjects with the hope that maybe, given enough time and effort, they may come to appreciate--even "love"--the subjects, too!

Hi, I'm Brent Roschke, a Purdue student planning to study aerospace and nuclear engineering. I tutor math, physics, chemistry, and ACT prep. I've tutored since high school through my school's program and with private clients working with students from 5th to 12th grade, from foundational math up to advanced AP and IB coursework. I learned early that the same explanation rarely works for everyone, so much of what I do is finding the angle a particular student needs before a concept clicks. Having recently been through college admissions myself, I bring that to ACT prep too, where strategy and pacing matter as much as content. When a student is stuck, I don't just re-explain it louder I find a different angle: a sketch, a concrete example, or working through a problem together while they drive. I'd rather nudge a student to the answer than solve it for them, so a concept goes from intimidating to obvious and they start to believe they can do it on their own.

I received my Bachelor of Science in Chemical Engineering from Purdue University and my Master of Science in Material Science and Engineering from Arizona State University. Since graduation, I have worked in industry as a process engineer in the semiconductor and aerospace industries. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about Math and Science. I use my strong math and science background to drive thorough understanding for students. I create a fun and engaging learning experience for these often times difficult and dry subjects to learn and master. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my wife and two sons ages 6 months and 3 years.

My passion all started when I helped children who had developmental disabilities learn social skills and master daily tasks. Working with these population sparked my love and passion for teaching and helping students who may struggle in certain areas. My passion is to assist individuals reach their full potential no matter what challenge. My tutoring style will consist of me figuring out your learning style (which I find so important) while being patient and flexible. I want my students to feel comfortable and come as they are.Now a little about me. I received my bachelors in science with a major in psychology and a minor human development and family studies from Purdue University. It hard to choose but my favorite classes in college were clinical psychology, abnormal psychology, child psychology, and atypical child development. After graduation I started my masters at Ball State to become a board certified behavior analyst in order to keep working with children who have developmental disabilities. During this summer I decided that this track wasn't for me anymore. As I love and thrive in the academic environment I decided that I wanted to still obtain a masters degree in the near future. My current plan is to become a elementary teacher because I want my future students love school as much as I do.Lastly, in my spare time you can find me doing all things outdoors (especially rock climbing) with my fiance and friends as well as reading my huge collection of books.

I have been tutoring for the past 3 years with students from ages 7-16 in subjects from basic arithematic to pre calculus. I am currently enrolled at Purdue University, Where I am studying Applied Mathematics and electrical and Computer Engineering. My favorite subject to tutor would definitely be math, where I love to tutor people in Geometry.

I am currently a freshman at Purdue University majoring in Data Science. As a senior in high school, I tutored middle school and high school students at Mathnasium, a math learning center. I also taught Python as a North South Foundation volunteer to elementary and middle school students. I am most passionate about teaching programming languages like Python and Java, although I also have experience explaining calculus and algebra topics. I believe it's important to treat teaching like a discussion, not a lecture, which means the student asks questions about the subject, while the teacher asks for feedback from the student on their approach to teaching.

I am currently attending Purdue University where I just finished my Freshman year. I graduated from Plano East Senior High in 2020. I tutor a broad range of subjects including math, science, and history. I became a mechanical engineering major because I love math and physics and learning to apply it. My love for learning does not stop at STEM and includes other fields such as history. I enjoy working one on one with students to help them achieve their goals and overcome any obstacles.

Hello! My name is Heather and I recently finished my PhD in Atmospheric Science at the University at Albany (April 2022). I received my Bachelor of Science in Atmospheric Science with minors in Math and Spanish from Purdue University in May 2017. I am currently transitioning to full-time employment this summer as a Researcher within the federal government. I have prior experience tutoring students of all ages in pre-algebra, algebra, chemistry, earth science, and Spanish. I like to tailor my tutoring sessions to the goals of my students and enjoy seeing them succeed.

I received my B.S. in Microbiology from Purdue University in 2014, and am now studying to obtain my PhD in the same subject from Georgia Institute of Technology. I have a passion for math and science, and am looking to share that passion with those I tutor. While at Purdue, I had much informal tutoring experience helping my classmates study for exams. In my first year at Georgia Tech, I have had the wonderful opportunity to work one on one with two different undergraduate students in the lab. I am adept at changing my teaching style to match someone's level of understanding in a particular subject. I am a huge proponent of higher education and believe everyone should have the opportunity to seek an advanced degree. I really enjoy helping people learn new things and to think more critically about the world around them. While I can tutor in math and sciences as well as ACT and GRE test prep, my favorite subject to tutor would have to be Biology, because it is my favorite subject and the one I am currently studying. I like to make sure that those I work with have a sound understanding of the concepts and are able to apply those concepts to answer diverse sets of questions. No matter the subject I tutor, my job is to make you a better problem solver, a skill that will aid you in any facet of your life. I find learning and discovery very exciting, and have a ton of stake in the success of those I tutor. When I'm not tutoring or doing research in the lab, I enjoy exercising and reading comics.

I am a current sophomore at Purdue University studying Chemistry Education and Chemistry, in hopes of becoming a chemistry teacher and pursuing educational policy. I have worked in student teaching placements at the middle school and high school levels in science classes. While I tutor subjects, I am most passionate about chemistry because of its relevance to the real world. I also know it's a subject many struggle with, and thus struggle to enjoy, so I strive to reach those students. I believe education is the foundation of our society, and all students are capable of finding their place within it.

I'm here if you need help learning a concept from scratch, preparing for a test, or if you have specific questions you need answering on homework or assignments. I've been tutoring fellow classmates since I ran study sessions during my study hall in high school. While at Purdue University, I made extra money tutoring fellow classmates, as well as running weekly help sessions for a few biology courses. I finished at Purdue with majors in Ecology, Evolution, & Environmental Biology and also Philosophy. I received minors in Classical Studies and Wildlife.I am now working towards my master's in education, and I am substitute teaching in Detroit. I am looking to tutor on the side while I work my way through school. I love teaching and I dedicate myself to seeing my students comprehend the topics at hand.

Hello there! Thank you for taking the time to look at my profile and taking the first step towards furthering your academic achievement! My passion for tutoring comes from the experiences I have had over the years working closely with students in a small classroom setting. The greatest reward I have had as an educator stems from not just the progress students show from content knowledge, but from the passion instilled in those who truly desire to be better overall people. Our educations do not stop once we exit the classroom doors...When I am not working in an educational setting, I enjoy spending the majority of my time outdoors. Biking, running, and hiking are ways I can stay active and are great ways to decompress! One of the events I look forward to the most are the bike trips I am honored to take with Pittsburgh Youth Leadership, a program that provides an opportunity for youth in the city of Pittsburgh to see our nation while on two wheels.

My father loved camping and the out of doors and so some of my earliest memories are of camping in the mountains of Northern New Mexico. As a family, we took extended trips through the western United States, Canada and Alaska, towing a travel trailer and camping in mostly primitive camps. As a young teen, I started backpacking in the mountains of New Mexico and Colorado and developed a great love for the mountain and canyon country of the west. It was this great love of nature that attracted me to science--first as a Forestry major at Northern Arizona University but which eventually evolved to the study of chemistry, as that seemed to me the basic science that was as the heart of understanding nature. While my love of learning was probably instilled in me very early in my life (thanks to my parents, I was an avid reader), it really came out while in college. In finishing my chemistry degree, I realized I was just beginning to learn what I wanted to learn and went on to graduate school to get a PhD studying Physical Chemistry at Purdue University.I am now retired from full time teaching, but not from my love of learning (nor my love of the mountains) which has continually evolved. My experiences of teaching science from demonstrations in elementary school to graduate level courses have given me a great interest in the teaching of science to the general public and sharing with others, that same awe, wonder and appreciation I have."To become educated is to become more human."

I am a hard working college student who enjoys helping other students succeed with their classes. I can relate to the struggles in school, as I went through them myself. I truly believe in having fun with all of your school work. I will work to do my best to not only help improve skills, but help increase the enjoyment of a certain subject.

Communication hinges on empathy, understanding, and specificity in storytelling. After a Bachelor of the Arts in Acting and English from Purdue University and a Master of the Fine Arts degree from the University of Connecticut, I've got the storytelling tools to apply to any situation. Essay writing, speech coaching, audition prep; all of these forms of communication boil down to the same basic principle. How do you empathize with another human being? What story do each of you need to hear? With rigorous essay structure and technical skills in how to breathe, emotionally connect, and articulate, any essay or speech has the ability to truly be a work of art.I'm lucky enough to be on the path to publishing my first novel and recently joined the Actor's Equity Association! That aside, I can't wait to work with you and see what ideas you need help tackling!

I am a graduate of Purdue University with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Elementary Education with a minor in Early Childhood Education. Since graduation I have spent time teaching in public and private school classrooms, for a total of 13 years, have taught with homeschool cooperatives and homeschooled my own children for 5 years, and have recently earned a Master's in Theological Studies. I have a passion for learning and love to pass that along to my students. My most favorite subjects are math and English. I love the way that math is logical and follows an order of operations. English is interesting to me because I am an author and I love using words to describe what I want to communicate.

I am a recent graduate of Purdue University where I received a Bachelor of Science degree in Math Education. During my time at Purdue, I had the opportunity to teach a college level Precalculus class, as well as Algebra I regular and Honors, and Financial Algebra during my student teaching experience at a Chicago High School. During my student teaching, I often tutored students during my lunch hour who needed some extra help outside of the classroom. My favorite subject to tutor in is math, and I specifically enjoy tutoring Algebra I and Algebra II, Geometry and Calculus. My favorite part of math (and the way I learned it best) was when I could relate a problem to a real world situation, so you can expect us to make some really cool connections together! I also like exploring the ???why??? of a problem, this way, we can really break it down and figure out what???s going on. I aim to not only help you solve the problems we are currently working on, but to give you the tools you need to show any and all future problems who???s boss! Outside of the classroom, I enjoy making electronic music and living an active lifestyle through lifting weights and biking.
