...perfect for my interests and learning style. This education, combined with my experience as a teacher in Creighton's "Philosophy for Children" program, has helped me to understand that teaching, one-on-one or in a classroom setting, is something that I'm passionate about. I believe that dialogue between mentor and pupil, much in the style of Plato's works, is the most effective way of imparting knowledge. Despite how overbearing or intimidating that might sound, I also think...

...world through a scientific lens, and support students by taking on a growth mindset. Having studied the psychology of learning, I recognize that teaching students about how they learn is key to success in any subject. In addition to my experiences as a tutor and a mentor, I was a teaching fellow at an intensive teaching fellowship called Breakthrough Collaborative in San Francisco in which I learned specific teaching strategies such as strategic questioning, thought...

I have been tutoring for over 10 years and have worked with students in a wide range of subjects as well as preparing for the ACT. In the course of my work, I have personally witnessed the great impact that tutoring can have in terms of both achievement and discovering the joy of learning. Through these experiences, I...

...a problem. For me, I recognize that everyone's learning style, pace, and mindset is different. It's incredibly important to me to establish communication with my student(s). In terms of my teaching style, I tend to ask open ended questions both to guide the student and to go beyond the example presented to prepare for tougher questions that may show up on exams. Aside from tutoring, I'm involved in a couple of nonprofits. I work for...

I am currently attending California Institute of the Arts. I am studying art, as well as theatre and art management. Eventually, I hope to attend grad school for library science.

...sister with her anatomy and other biology classes as well as tutoring a friend in chemistry and physics. My style of tutoring is a very collaborative process with lots of time for the person I'm tutoring to ask clarifying questions . I really enjoy taking seemingly difficult topics and explaining them in a logical fashion while emphasizing the basics every step of the way. I find that students' frustration with a concept generally stems from...

...math and sciences like physics and chemistry. I sometimes tutor writing such as college language and composition writing as well. My favorite subjects to teach are calculus (1 through 3), elementary differential equations, and physics (Newtonian, Quantum, and Electricity/Magnetism). I believe that to become familiar with a subject, one must practice it and do so often. It is also often helpful to do as much background research as necessary in order to fundamentally understand the...

...Cum Laude from an American school in China. I am a native English speaker, but I have been learning Mandarin for my entire life as well. I took 9 AP tests throughout high school in addition to the ACT. I got a 5 on Calculus BC, macroeconomics, psychology, seminar, and statistics, and a 4 on microeconomics, chemistry, computer science A, and environmental science. I am passionate about helping others, and believe that a strong fundamental...

...forward. As a result, I was able to score 1460 on my SAT and be accepted into Washington University in St. Louis. WashU presented its own challenges such as balancing fun and work, being in a new environment, and being challenged through the rigorous coursework. Again, I found myself asking my friends for their insight into questions and doing online tutoring sessions with my previous tutor so that I could keep up my high grades....

...to help others learn and succeed! My interest in tutoring stems from my own preparation for tests during high school and college and my ability to communicate clearly with others. I studied in a small group to prepare for the MCAT. We took turns teaching about certain topics to each other which forced us to know the material well enough to explain it to others. This experience taught me the value of tutoring.

...other problems, and leading to them having to guess at the end. This can affect a students score, so I like to provide the student efficient ways of which to answer the questions while keeping in mind the time limit. When I tutor a student on a certain topic, I like to assess the students knowledge on that topic at first. Using the assessment, I can find the students weaker areas on the topic and...

...tutored fellow students in entry math and physics corses including Calculus, College Algebra and Statistics. After graduating, I worked full time at a nonprofit in Little Rock, AR which served people experiencing homelessness and near homelessness. In the evenings, I provided in-home tutoring through Club Z! to students in the central Arkansas area. Subjects taught include Calculus, Geometry, Algebra, Reading and History. With a consistent track record of helping students learn, I hope you'll consider...

...years, teaching students of all ages and watching them grow and succeed. My college peers often sought my help to parse difficult concepts into understandable pieces and to offer intuitive approaches to problems. I treat teaching and learning as an exercise of clear, open communication; the better the communication, the more appropriate the pace of learning, the greater the understanding between the teacher and student, and the more comfortable the learning experience becomes. With the...

...years. Tutoring is a wonderful step into my future career as an educator. I love getting to know my students and their learning styles. While I enjoy helping students feel more at ease with many types of Mathematics, my favorite areas are Calculus and Finite Mathematics. In my opinion the key to being a successful tutor is being able to explain the material in multiple ways, thus finding the path that best suits the particular...

I have a passion for teaching that goes back to my time in grade school. I have been tutoring people on and off since 7th grade. Watching students finally grasp a difficult subject makes all the struggle worth it.

...then went to the Northeast Montessori Institute to train as a Montessori teacher for 3 to 6 year olds. I worked in a Montessori School for 3 years before moving to Saint Louis where I volunteered as a literacy tutor for adults who hadn't learned to read. I then became an Adult Basic Education teacher where I taught teens and adults of all ability levels who were non-high school graduates everything they needed to learn...

...students choose from the HSE or HiSet exam. I teach all four subjects needed to pass those exams. Four years of high school knowledge seems like an overwhelming amount to tackle. But unlike exams you may have taken in the past, the tests don't want memorization of times and places but the use of evidence to answer questions and draw conclusions. The math is around 55% algebra so that might need some review, but it...

...die. Algebra and Trigonometry are one of my most favorite subjects to learn and to teach especially since it's a language that everyone can share. I live in a Fraternity with a bunch of friends that always ask me to tutor them before an exam, and remarkably they receive a much better grade after I helped tutor them. The key, I believe, to understanding math is to gain some confidence in your skills of Algebra,...

...it is shared between the giver and receiver. Currently, I'm an undergraduate student at Washington University in St. Louis with a major in geophysics and a minor in astrophysics. I've tutored elementary school children in basic math, reading, and music. Along with this I've naturally picked up tutoring skills merely by working with classmates on assignments. When tutoring I strive for clear communication between the student so I can understand exactly where the misunderstanding lies...
