My comments on tutoring Chemistry : My undergraduate, masters degrees were in Chemistry. I have taken many advanced level courses in Chemistry

I have overall 10 years of teaching experience. I came to United States to do my Ph.D. in Organic Chemistry. As a graduate student, I worked as a TA for the Department of Chemistry. I was trained on an intense 4 week program focused on undergraduate teaching methods offered by the Teaching College of U of Nebraska. I taught various undergraduate courses (both laboratory and recitation) at the Department of Chemistry, UNL. I have been living in Seattle for the past four years, and I have tutored students from high school, U Prep, and College in Science and Math. I teach all subdivisions of Chemistry (College and high-school) level, mathematics and physics (highschool). I also tutor for GRE Chemistry and Biochemistry subject exams.
I am a passionate and patient teacher. It gives me a great satisfaction to make students understand the concepts and my real reward is through seeing the ... read more

PhD Physics, able to tutor in science, math, engineering

I was a senior scientist - engineer for 37 years. I retired to care for my comatose wife at home, and she died a few months later. This situation has left me open to new directions. My teaching experience has been 3 years as a graduate teaching assistant, and 2 years as a tutor to friends and family in science and mathematics. My goal is to show how math and science can enrich one's life and these subjects are nothing to fear.
I follow the method of G. Polya in his classic work "How to Solve It". By asking the right questions, one can help the student define his problem, form a plan for the solution, carry out the plan, and examine the result. I also try to work as many difficult problems from the student's text as time permits, in order to show that all problems have a solution, and the student can build confidence in attacking any problem. I try to present the material in ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been teaching Biology 1100 for undergraduate offered by Idaho State University for past 2.5 years. Being a biology major i enjoy teaching biology and help student understanding basic foundation of science. Understanding is a part of learning where most of the student struggle. Science would be so much fun if we stick with the basic. Beside biology i have helped students with maths, physics and chemistry which without any doubt is an integral part of science. Being a recent graduate student i have learned the way how to tackle with problems and have successfully employed those problem solving techniques in my teaching carrier.contact me 2085402785 or email: waglpraj@isu.edu

Chemistry is one of my top subjects!

Tutoring especially appeals to me because breakthrough moments don’t always occur while class is in session. Every student has a slightly different way of wrapping his or her head around a given concept. By engaging students one-on-one, I can get a feel for their specific situation and how they relate to a given topic, and modify my teaching style and examples to fit their needs.
I received my Bachelor of Science from Western Washington University and my Master of Science from the University of Oregon, both in chemistry. After graduation, I worked in the pharmaceutical industry as a synthetic chemist before starting a PhD program. While I ultimately decided not to complete my doctorate, I did discover I had quite a passion for teaching chemistry. I then started teaching test prep courses and tutoring students, and later I started teaching general and organic chemistry as an adjunct ... read more

I like to instill in students a desire to learn. It makes it easier for them to have fun learning and easier for me to teach them new subjects. My first goal as a tutor, especially in reading and writing, is to connect with the student and find a topic that interests them. One of the biggest issues faced by struggling students is that they often don't identify with the problems. For a struggling reader this might mean not enjoying the subject matter of his/her book, and a for a student behind in math it may mean not seeing a real world application for the problems. Establishing a good relationship builds trust and also inspires the student to want to learn.
I spent most of my high school and college career honing my writing and reading ability, and through four years of English classes I have developed excellent writing skills. Additionally, my computer and internet knowledge has ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I will work with the students and find where out where they are weakest. By doing so I will be able to give them the knowledge required to understand the material they are struggling with instead of teaching them how to solve the problem at that moment which will prevent them from struggling with mathematics their entire school career. I believe that with out understanding what is going on in the background the students will never fully understand what they are doing. Thus having worked with them to make their weak points their strong points they will gain the confidence needed to go into an exam and pass with a strong grade. I want to help the kids that others have given up on because I feel that it's these students that have the greatest potential to succeed if given the proper guidance in life.

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy coaching and encouraging anyone to learn. I am enthusiastic and enjoy seeing "the light bulb" come on. I believe everyone has the capability to excel, and I understand that there are several learning styles. I work to help the student discover their learning style/s and happily adapt to their way of learning. I am patient and thoughtful of the student and their needs. I seek to help the student discover how and what to do and eventually 'own' their ability to learn and be self-driven.
As seasoned home school teacher, I have educated my children for the past 17 years. I have worked with all age groups from kindergarten through 12th grade, teaching and mentoring one on one. I have the experience of teaching all the elementary level subjects for four of my five children. I have also taught the high school level subjects to three of my five children. I have fine-tuned ... read more

This is my favorite quotation because it expresses what, in my opinion, is the essence of science -- it is beautiful and poetic in its own right. The statement applies particularly well to chemistry, since there are so many everyday applications of this "central" science. In these few words, Spencer eloquently sums up the role of chemistry as a scientific discipline, in society, and in University classrooms. I have come to appreciate it more throughout my teaching career. After having taught lots of students, I have experienced the satisfaction of imparting some of this poetry to them.

I was a chemistry teaching assistant at the University of Washington for over six years while in graduate school. I conducted quiz sections, laboratories, and tutored students individually and in small groups for organic, inorganic, analytical, and theoretical chemistry. I also on occasion substituted for the lecturer.
For organic students, I prefer to teach how to think about the chemistry involved in any given reaction. I emphasize an awareness of electron density – where the electrons are in a molecule – and how electron rich areas want to bind to electron poor areas. The goal is to give the students an understanding of the physical reasons reactions occur, and how a series of reactions can be used to accomplish a synthesis. For general chemistry students, I focus on presenting the concept of the lesson, and then illustrate the processes that use the concept with examples. On ... read more

My passion is Mathematics and Physics and very knowledgeable in Chemistry. I like teaching children understand the subjects in a simple way as they are indeed simple. I feel each child learns the subjects at their pace and given proper encouragement can apprecaite and enjoy the subjects. I like to understand the child's situation before proceeding to teach. This gives me and idea where they are in a particular area.
I dont have experience in tutoring in US, but I have done so in India. I did tutoring while I was in univeristy doing my bachelors in Computer Science and Engineering. I'm very passionate about Mathematics and Physics and very knowledgeable in Chemistry. I have done problem solving beyond what is taught in schools and colleges which helped me to understand the subjects better. I have earned my bachelors degree in Technology from IIT Delhi which is one of the bext engine ... read more
