Mathew: Edinburgh tutor

Certified Tutor

Are you looking for someone who can help you obtain an excellent ACT or SAT score? Does you need help in high school math or science classes? If so, I can help you achieve your goals.

My name is Mathew, and I am a recently accepted medical student at the University of Cincinnati. I previously worked as a high school science teacher in Pasadena, Texas for 2 years. I specifically taught 9th grade biology and 10th grade chemistry to over 300 high schoolers. 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.

Before teaching high school science, I had several experiences tutoring middle school and high school students in various subjects. My favorite subject to tutor is middle school and high school math and science. I also have experience preparing students for the SAT, and I performed very highly on my ACT test.

My educational background:
- 2013 - Bachelor of Science, Neuroscience - University of Michigan
- 2016 - Master of Art in Teaching, Secondary Integrated Science - Eastern Michigan University
- 2018 - Master of Science in Physiology - University of Cincinnati

As a tutor, I enjoy first learning the goals of my student and then coming up with a plan to achieve success together. I think that each student needs a customized approach and learning plan. For hobbies, I enjoy playing guitar and basketball, and I always enjoy a good movie with friends.

Please contact me if you are interested in my tutoring services. I hope to hear from you soon!
