Let's talk in Farsi!
Anyone who knew me growing up would have never thought that I would one day love teaching. Let's just say that I was the popular kid in school and not the stellar student my parents wished. But if I was to study, I had decided it would be English and French Translation in college-- learning to build long-lasting professional and personal relationships. I had the privilege of studying in Iran, the United States, the United Kingdom, France, and Switzerland. Other than my native tongue of Persia... Read more

ACT English Tutor who can help you raise your ACT score!
I really like having options: chocolate or raspberries, breakfast or brunch, beach or pool. I like helping others so that they have options as well. For example, I had a student with a 21 on the ACT English test. After multiple, intense 2-hour sessions, he was able to increase his ACT English score to a 29. While I helped, my student did the work required to really move his ACT score. Now this student has more choices between schools and more options for scholarships. That is so awesome! ... Read more

Excited to teach students about physics and math
Hi! I've been a part-time lecturer for Rutgers University for 5 semesters where I taught Physics to second-year engineering students. I've also had some experience tutoring AP Physics and am extremely comfortable teaching mathematics at levels from high school to college math. I hope to not just help you understand the material, but enable you to do it yourself. My approach to teaching depends on students, but I like to start by going over general concepts and occasionally quiz students as w... Read more

Ian
UChicago Physics PhD Student With Several Years of Tutoring Experience
I started my college career as an architecture student, but quickly switched to physics after becoming infatuated by it. Despite coming from a different academic background than most of my peers, I quickly developed my ability to learn physics and math, and managed to take many extra courses in advanced physics topics like general relativity and quantum field theory. I had already had a bit of experience tutoring math at that point, but I think that diving head-first into physics and creating... Read more

Geoffrey
UChicago Tutor For High School Students
I'm currently a second-year undergraduate student at the University of Chicago, where I study Near Eastern Languages and Civilizations. I've always enjoyed sharing my knowledge with others because true understanding comes when you can simplify a complex concept into simple terms and explain it clearly to someone else. In that way, I consider tutoring to be beneficial to me as well as the student. Typically, I try to first understand what material is being expected of the student to know, and ... Read more
