I especially love tutoring in test preparation, writing, science, and test taking strategies to combat anxiety. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, yoga,...

As a master's student and former medical student, I know how challenging academics can be. I also know how having a helping hand, a guidance through the confusion, can help one gain confidence in themselves to excel. From tutoring children to post-graduates, I have seen that all students (no matter their age, level of education, strengths, weaknesses, etc.) who are willing to learn can succeed. ... In a typical first session, the student and I usually...

...helps us understand the world we live in. Anatomy is great because you are living in your own cheat sheet (your body)! When I am tutoring, I want to hear or see my students' thought processes. It's great if you can get to the right answer, but truly learning means knowing how you got there. So, I love having my students teach the concepts back to me. Outside of school, I play slow-pitch softball and...

I have long enjoyed enjoyed working with others to help them achieve personal goals. Some of the most fulfilling tutoring I have done recently have been tutoring immigrants for the US Citizenship Test, helping formerly incarcerated individuals attain their GEDs, and tutoring children in Honduras on conversational English to obtain high-paying jobs in the tourism industry. I'm thrilled to work with anybody on any subjects of interest, reach out with any questions!

...help in a way that will best fit their learning needs and to make each tutoring session fun. My background is in Biochemistry, Chemistry and Molecular Biology. I graduated from University of Pennsylvania in 2012 in an accelerated BA/MS program, and currently work at Harvard University as a research assistant in Developmental Biology. I have a good deal of personal experience with the competition and expectations of academics at top tier universities. I also have...

...as we work one-on-one and set goals with realistic expectations. I received my medical education (M.D.) from the American University of Antigua in the West Indies and undergraduate education from the University of Massachusetts (BSc). I matriculated into family medicine residency and am working towards medical education goals. I tutor for the USMLE steps, shelf exams, in-house comprehensive exams, and science subjects. My favorite subject to tutor is Psychiatry. My tutoring style is structured based...

As a tutor in test prep (SAT/ACT/SSAT/AP), I aim to help my students learn subject matter solidly enough to teach it themselves. I have four years of experience in online tutoring through the Russian School of Mathematics. My VA research, 1st placement in MA Science Olympiad, and perfect AP scores in Calc BC, Eng Lang, Chem, and Bio give me the expertise to transform your student into an academic weapon.

...earning a joint M.S. in Biomedical Sciences and healthcare-concentrated M.B.A. in a collaborative program between Tufts University School of Medicine and the Heller School for Social Policy and Management at Brandeis University. Prior, I was a dual Biological Sciences and Economics major at my undergraduate alma mater, Fordham University. I am eager to utilize the knowledge acquired form my various educational experiences to teach and inspire the next wave of enthusiastic science-oriented students.

I've been teaching biology to undergraduates since 2003, as a tenured professor at the University of Redlands and as visiting faculty at various institutions, including Boston College and Williams College. One of my greatest joys in life is seeing my students grow in their skills, their confidence, and the power to shape their futures.... I focus on helping students build a network of ideas so that they can remember and use them. I also guide them...

...engineer. I have over 5000 hours experience in online tutoring on different platforms. My computer science tutoring experience includes computer programming (C++/C/Java/Python) as well as data structures, algorithms, operating systems, and theory of computation. My tutoring approach is that I look for gaps in a student's understanding. Then we focus on plugging those gaps. I believe that even the most complex topics can be broken down into key concepts which can then be mastered. Mastering...

...not like a mere career choice for me; but an opportunity to fulfill my fundamentally inquisitive nature. Along this journey, I chose to focus my study on neuroscience and obtained a Ph.D. in this field. Now, I work in the biotechnology industry: writing patents for universities, emerging biotechnology companies, and inventors alike. This academic trajectory has enabled me to garner a fierce strength in writing/editing, biology, neuroscience, and critical thinking. I look forward to helping...

...with native Spanish speakers in other academic subjects. I bring a compassionate and collaborative approach to teaching. I strongly believe that a tutor must treat his or her student as a teammate and not as someone who merely needs instruction. The goal of any tutoring session should be to bring out and foster a student's own capacity to understand and excel in a given field, which begins with respect. I am currently pursuing a graduate...

...mathematics, engineering physics, to chemistry and the biological sciences. Here, I encountered a variety of students and different learning styles, and learned how to adapt to each one. Working with students exposed me to various styles - visual, audio, interactive and many more types of teaching. I find that every student has their own way of incorporating the material, and I want to effectively teach in a way that helps you learn in the method...

...populations. I am lead author on multiple peer reviewed publications. I offer tutoring in writing, biostatistics, psychology, and biology. Through tutoring at Northeastern University, I developed a teaching style that is supportive, patient, and, most importantly, flexible based on the needs of the student. My goal is to help you get to where you want to be! When I am not working, I enjoy snuggling with my two cats and competing in powerlifting.

...function and how its value at a point is also its slope, and how we can use this to our advantage in differential equations. My lifelong love of mathematics, as well as many students' dismal outlook on mathematics, in conjunction with the gracefulness of mathematics that I am so fortunate to have been taught, pushes me to teach mathematics to young men and women, so that they can at least get a taste of the...

...highly competitive scholarships. Each of these experiences has taught me how to communicate concepts in clear and engaging ways. For instance, while tutoring adolescents enrolled in the Boston-based Artists for Humanity program, I would often teach students whom I had never worked with before, and thus became adept at quickly discovering and implementing the strategies that worked best for a particular student (e.g., visual/tactile examples, analogies, and breaking down complex problems into smaller parts). While...
