Stephanie
PhD chemist and math wiz
I love explaining through conceptual understanding and problem solving strategies rather than only teaching methods that apply to one kind of problem. That way my students do better in all their courses and not only the one that I tutor. Ideally my students learn good study skills and don't need me anymore after a few months. I have 10 years experience teaching college chemistry and doing research and organic synthesis. I am an adjunct professor in chemistry and work at a college tutoring c... Read more
Teresa
Italian Tutor and Instructor, written and conversation

At the same time, I completed my US education, which includes grammar sch... Read more

Mahilet
Math, science, and Chemical Engineering Tutor - academic coach
I love explaining concepts and developing my students’ problem-solving skills rather than only teaching methods that apply to one kind of problem. Improving my students’ comprehension about a subject they struggle with is my goal. I have found success by encouraging my students to relate what they learn in class to their everyday life. I often challenge my students to look at scientific problems in new ways, such as how redox reactions and their favorite plated jewelry are related, how the id... Read more

(Effective Tutor in Biblical Studies, Reading, and Writing)
I have been a full-time college professor for 16 years and have spent many hours tutoring students in reading and writing in small groups and in one-on-one sessions. What I love about tutoring is the opportunity to help students improve their reading and writing skills, which are essential for a successful career. I also love tutoring because it gives students a safe place to open up about their struggles with reading and writing. So often students are afraid to ask questions in class or ... Read more

Come down with a bad case of Math?
Most people don't like math. This makes doing it almost impossible. There are usually a few reasons for this: bad experience at school, never seeing the purpose, people withholding the whole picture for later development and never coming back to it because of tests and such. I start by finding the main culprit to this distress, and start solving problems for the student. Not math problems, but base problems in their understanding. After some skill building and drilling on the right areas we ... Read more
