I see tutoring as a means of instilling passion in students

In graduate school, I taught general biology for science and non-science major students as a graduate assistant. Currently I work as an adjunct microbiology professor at my local community college and I am also a STEM science tutor at Knox county high schools. Teaching is my passion. Math was my favorite subject in school; I took seve... Read more

Joshua
Chemistry PhD Grad from Minnesota
I'm Josh! I graduated cum laude from Hope College in Holland, MI in 2007 with a BS in mathematics and chemistry. I received my PhD in chemistry from the University of Minnesota in 2016. I discovered during my work as an undergraduate student that the best professors were not those that simply relayed information, but those that could get students to ask the right questions by making their lessons exciting and tying them to real world experiences. The professors that spent extra time with ... Read more

Once the students learn those strategies and apply them... Read more

There are few more fulfilling ways to spend time. I have over a year of experience tutoring university athletes in various math subjects, chemistry, physics, Spanish, economics, and accounting. During that period of time, I also facilitated math lab hours, teaching math to multiple students at the same time. ... Read more
