Award-Winning Tutors in Chester, VA

...in Ireland. My primary area of expertise for tutoring is the MCAT, and my favorite subsection to work on is Bio/Biochem. I am also very experienced at tutoring for high school or college level chemistry or biology courses. Having self-taught for the MCAT, I learned many mnemonics that I believe will greatly help my students. I believe a strong foundation in STEM courses promotes one's ability to problem solve and think critically throughout life, and...

...does it help the student, but I also get a chance to refresh and learn these concepts one more time. For the next two months, I will be available for on-line and in person tutoring in the Richmond area for about 10 hours per week. I am flexible for the next two months and I would be willing to do more hours if needed. Preferably afternoons or evenings would be better, but some mornings could...

...able to travel a lot and living abroad. I have been able to live in the United States, England, and Denmark as well as travel around Europe and some parts of the Middle East. These all connect with my love of languages, politics, and culture thus allowing me to learn from each interpersonal connection I make through my tutoring experiences. I am very excited to work with a variety of students with diverse interests and...

...that teachers are not always the best communicators. I am of the opinion that any subject a person really wants to learn about, they can become proficient in. However, advice, teaching and tutoring are all a gift and should presented as such. If I take a five dollar bill, place it in a thank you card and hand it to someone. It will be far better received and valued, then if I throw a balled...

...tests. I also very much enjoy teaching British literature and the writing process. There is no better feeling to me than seeing the gratitude in a student's face when he or she exceeds expectations and can go on to complete the next step in his or her educational journey.

...my upbringing and who I am today, so tutoring seems like a good way to give others the same support I received. Few experiences have been as rewarding as sharing my passion for science and tech with kids as a robotics camp counselor. Seeing children get excited to learn about programming, design, and problem solving the same way I did at their age with my old legos was amazing. Right now I'm looking to tutor...

...younger students.

...not just confined to the classroom, and I try to draw in real life applications in order to help them grasp the importance and relevance of what they are learning about. In the age of texting and casual email, I feel it is important for students to have the confidence to write a well structured paper or essay so that, even if the subject itself is a challenge, they will be confident in knowing how...

...my favorite on-campus experiences have included occasions when I played music with students in an informal setting, or joined them in a game of hackey-sack on the lawn during lunchtime.

...a top accounting firm in the country and, while I loved the technical material, I wanted to see more of the business world, so I left for a start-up where I still work. I love anything to do with approaching problems in a new way and seeing things from a new perspective. Because of this I can understand one concept from a million different angles and enable you to really bring it home. I look...

...to understand the language as a whole. I have been a Spanish tutor for 4 years and I truly enjoy helping students reach their goals academically. I find that expanding vocabulary helps students to express themselves more clearly, breaking down grammar helps the students correctly insert verbs and conjugations into their sentences, and introducing common phrases or greetings helps students understand the cultural values of different Spanish speaking countries. It is my personal goal to...

...sounds, it's true!). My primary experience is with SAT prep, as one of my summer internships in college was to start an SAT tutoring company in my hometown of Ephrata, PA.
