Greetings! Before moving to the US, I was a professor at the University of International Business and Economics in Beijing. During that time, I taught Chinese to visiting American professors. It was then I first discovered the joy of teaching Chinese. I then spent the next decade working as an engineer in Silicon Valley. Though teaching hasn’t been my full time job, I’ve always volunteered my nights and weekends to teaching kids in Chinese schools. In addition to oral and written Chines... Read more

Coming from the University of Minnesota, I developed a great dedication to the educational process. This has primarily involved the process of learning physics, as well as the potential difficulties along the way. My hope is to use this experience and my passion to continue helping people better understand physics and related subjects. Throughout the course of earning my PhD, I helped tutor many students in introductory physics courses. I was also a Teaching Assistant for a variety of l... Read more

During my school days I was fascinated by the world of chemistry, different colors of compounds, their constitution, and the principles behind so many chemical reactions which are in fact taking place within our body! My intense passion for chemistry inspired me to take a chemistry honors course (for my Bachelor's degree). It involved a lot of laboratory work in organic, physical and inorganic chemistry. Sometimes it was very tough, but it was fun, too. I passed my Bachelor's degree in Chemis... Read more

Bioengineering is not just an academic discipline, it is a mindset. It is impossible to succeed in my major without being passionate, not just about the field itself, but about math, biology, chemistry, physics, computational modeling, medicine, and everything in between. I am a student driven purely by curiosity of the world and in being so curious, have developed a passion for seeing others succeed in the aforementioned subjects. I spent two years at Lincoln University in Pennsylvania work... Read more

I love tutoring because of the experiences I've had as a student. In my experiences at Richard Montgomery High School's rigorous IB Magnet Program and Stanford University, I've learned how large of a difference a good teacher can make. I also have learned that hard work and dedication to academics pays off. Everybody learns differently - as a student, I memorized songs and created flow charts to study for my AP, IB, SAT, and ACT tests. It took creativity and experimentation to find the learni...

I have been working as a tutor ever since I was old enough to help my little sister with her math, English, and science homework. I found that I enjoyed helping her and explaining material in different ways until she was able to comprehend her material. As a freshman in high school, I began to volunteer my time at local elementary and middle schools to tutor in a variety of subjects, and continued to do so up until my senior year. I have worked with students on math, biology, chemistry, histo... Read more

I am a student at Stanford Medicine who, though hard work and dedication, scored a 99th percentile (522) on the MCAT. It is important to note that I was not a natural, my initial score was a 498. I was the worst standardized test taker before I developed a strategy for success. Through my own struggles, I know exactly what it takes to succeed on the MCAT. I have tutored over 20+ students and have helped increase their scores by average of 12 points. I particularly specialize in taking student... Read more
