...mentor. When I had my first mentor, I wasn't sure he would be the right one. We worked together for some time, but some of his characteristics were not compatible with my liking. After about two more mentors, I finally selected an intelligent, organized, and serious mentor that was heavily invested in my success. To have a mentor that is invested in your success is a fantastic feeling. Suddenly, my motivation increased, my grades improved...

...wrote music professionally! As a result, I can truly get in the mindset of a student who is learning something - NO question is out-of-bounds or silly - it all comes from a place where the mind is trying to incorporate new information. There is nothing worse than an expert "teacher" who has forgotten what the various stages of learning was like! I work with students of all ages and in all the subjects I've...

...take any step necessary to advance their knowledge and expertise. Its their enthusiasm that drives me to teach everyday and aid in their academic progress. I would like to offer solid support and basic skills that I have developed over the years. It takes commitment and hard work to study any course material. The first thing I do is highlight the central theme of each chapter, then work on central idea of each paragraph and...

...and currently teach numerous classes in my medical school. I have succeeded academically due to my personal philosophy on education: I value complete understanding of material above all else. I am a continuous learner and I strive to teach that to my students. Once a subject is truly understood, tests will be easy, and great grades will follow. With this mindset, I have become talented at understanding where a student's problems with subject matter lie,...

...their tutor is precious and needs to be utilized most efficiently if the student is going to succeed. After reviewing the student's previous work and/or test scores, together, we set up a curriculum that works to strengthen his or her weaknesses whether that be reading comprehension, grammar skills, algebra, test taking tips, time management, etc. During our sessions together, we will review the problems that I have provided for homework, and I will instruct the...

...communities by helping them get better access to healthcare. During my undergraduate years, there were some concepts that I would struggle with and, as a result, would reach out to my professors for help. Their unconditional support and ways of helping students understand each concept inspired me to want to help students as well. Hence, I became a tutor at the learning center and helped students struggling in Biochemistry, Microbiology, and General Biology. Over the...

...addition, since high school, I have always been someone that friends entrust to look over and critique their papers before they submit final drafts. My teaching style features visual learning, mnemonics, and hierarchical organization of material. I find that hierarchically cataloguing information by topic and sub-topic helps students retain material, as students are not simply memorizing, but are understanding how concepts relate to one another. More personally, my hobbies include tennis, movies, and travel. I...

...and Tau Beta Pi (the original Engineering Honor Society), as well as freelance personal tutoring. I have two overarching aspirations in life. I would like to understand the world, and especially the people in it. I would also like to spread that knowledge, subsequently inspiring people to seek their own truths. Tutoring is a beautiful composition of art and science. One must understand both the material and the student. Not just simple comprehension, but in...

...MD, I decided to take a gap year in order to get my bearings and do something I love. Tutoring has been a lifelong passion of mine, one which I have been engaged in since my freshman year of high school, when I tutored middle- and high-school age students in a variety of different subjects at summer school. In reality, however, my experience with teaching new concepts to students began well before this, as I...

...students of all abilities in a wide variety of subjects. There is no confusion too small or problem too complicated that I cannot help with if not solve. I am exceptionally dedicated to my students; ensuring that they not simply memorize concepts or regurgitate facts but truly understand the material. I ask them to defend their answers which teaches them that the correct response is often less important than the reasoning used to reach said...

...subjects at a number of different levels, but my absolute favorite subjects are Physics, Chemistry, Math and Biomedical Engineering. The basic sciences are always the most interesting because they govern the behavior of the world around us and it still amazes me how a few simple equations can apply to so many situations, including things we experience every day. My preferred teaching style involves a little bit of give and take. I think I excel...

...Kaplan, teaching an MCAT preparatory course and working one-on-one with students. When not studying, I like to ride my bike, train Taekwondo, play blues guitar (or bass, or piano, or saxophone, or drums), and read a good book. My tutoring philosophy is one of individualized attention and goal setting, where the tutor and the student work together to set realistic goals, and then identify the roadblocks preventing the student from achieving his or her goal. We...

...I love Biology, Physics, Chemistry, Psychology, and Math. Its great fun to be able to teach what you love, and I look forward to working with new students on these subjects. I try my best to make every subject relatable to my students through everyday examples. I break down major concepts into more manageable pieces to help students see the larger concept. Teaching is a passion of mine. I have been teaching swim lessons for...

...from Stanford University, I majored in Human Biology with a concentration in Bioinformatics and Stem Cell Science. Technical though my background may be, I am currently gigging as a singer/songwriter/composer in NYC and tackle even the most hard-science of problems with a top-down, big-picture, holistic approach. If you have a propensity to look at problems in a cross- or inter-disciplinary manner (or want to learn how to do so), I'm the tutor for you!... All questions...

...large amount of proofreading and promotional writing, evaluation of book proposals and manuscripts, and extensive communication with academics, researchers, and professionals. I'm currently a Math Editor at one of the largest international academic publishing houses, a position in which I've utilized my strong mathematical interest and ability. Math and science have been two of my favorite subjects since middle school, and I follow the developments in these fields both in my career and in my...

I find that my greatest happiness comes in the form of little victories such as a good grade on an exam, or making a friend laugh! Its because of this that I really slow down and try to appreciate every passing moment because I believe every moment has the potential to be life changing.... I strive...

...Licensed Nutritionist currently based in Memphis, TN. My joy in tutoring comes from helping children and young adults evolve as learners. There is nothing more fulfilling than seeing a young person's aha moment and I strive to reach that moment with patience, humor, and creativity. Every person learns and engages differently, and it is crucial that a tutor be aware of, attuned to and prepared for those differences. I believe that tutoring is about growing...

...a student in an anatomy or physiology course. The key is not memorization, but pacing yourself, practice and placing key concepts at the beginning and end of each session. Having a basic understanding of how our brain memorizes and processes information is an essential prerequisite for all students. I have over 5 years of tutoring experience from medical school in subjects including Anatomy, Physiology, Pharmacology, Microbiology and many other health sciences courses.... Effective learning requires a...
