Experience Summary
Over the past several years, I have tutored several high school and college students in chemistry and would welcome the opportunity to serve in that capacity again. One college student that I tutored failed his first two exams before I began tutoring him. After I began working with him, through his hard work, he did well on the third exam, passed the course, and continued on in the program that he was in. He recently graduated with a degree in pharmacy. Another student that I tutored got a 2 out of 10 on his first quiz before I started working with him and through his persistence, he improved significantly and got a B+ in the course. I would look forward to the opportunity to help other students in similar situations.
Teaching Style
My philosophy is that, as long as students don't give up on themselves, I won't give up on them either. Often, when students first come to me for tutoring, they are frustrated and discouraged. My first job is to get their confidence back and get them to believe in themselves again.
