- 5 miles
Hello! My name is Zach R., and I am a Senior at Penn State University studying Statistics and Computing. I have been tutoring for Penn State's Introductory Statistics class for about 3.5 years now, and, during my time, I have heard the same thing from almost every student, "Statistics is boring, stupid, pointless, really hard and scary, etc..." When I hear this, a part of me dies inside. When I took AP Statistics in high school, it changed my life forever, so it makes me sad when other peop... Read more

Teaching has been an interest of mine my entire adult life.

I specialize in tutoring college level mathematics, typically up through calc 2. I have tutored all levels of math and even taught 8th grade algebra in a public school. I am generally availa...

Private Tutoring in Math & Physics
- $30 / h
- 7 ratings
- State College , Pennsylvania ( 16801 )
- 25 miles
It's said that you never truly understand a subject until you can teach it. Tutoring allows me to continue engaging with the subjects that I most enjoyed in middle school and high school, and to continue finding deeper connections and interesting ideas within those subjects. No one subject exists in isolation, and no one course can cover a subject in its entirety---tutoring gives me the opportunity to explore math and science beyond the basics that I learned in the classroom. I have been o... Read more

I'm an undergraduate student at Pennsylvania State University majoring in Forensic Science with a possible minor in Psychology. I have informally tutored fellow students in Psychology, Algebra II, Geometry, and English. I love helping kids succeed in subjects that are difficult for them, as I have been in their position and I know how good it feels to do well in a subject you thought you were going to fail. Some of these subjects have not always been easy for me, but with the help of other... Read more

Math and Science Problem Solving For All Experience Levels
- $30 / h
- 8 ratings
- Port Matilda , Pennsylvania ( 16870 )
- 15 miles
Throughout my education, I’ve tried a lot of study strategies. I’ve found that what works best for me is not reading or lectures, but conversation. That knowledge is what informs my tutoring approach. I talk to my students until I can focus down to the core of their understanding, then I build out until they have a confident grasp on the material. I began tutoring as an undergraduate at the University of Rochester, where I worked as a Teaching Assistant for some introductory geology courses. ... Read more
