Have been conducting organic chemistry research for the past 7 years while completing my undergraduate and doctoral education. Can provide help in general chemistry as well as organic chemistry. I have experience with reaction mechanisms and reaction transition states including 3 dimensional drawing of said transition states. I also have extensive experience analyzing spectral data of organic molecules including, proton NMR, carbon NMR, 2 dimensional NMR, IR, and mass spec. I feel that learning through examples is one of the best ways to learn organic chemistry.

I love opening students' eyes to the wonders of science. It is my experience that a student can learn anything, even the most complicated scientific theories, if the teacher is patient and engaging. In teaching, I find the key to unlocking the minds of the students is to find the appropriate analogy or metaphor. If a teacher can aptly relate a concept the student doesn’t understand to one that the student does understand, not only will the student learn the new concept, they will be far less likely to forget it in the future. I find this method to be effective in teaching concepts as complicated as quantum physics, and in teaching concepts as non-intuitive as learning how to play a drum roll. While earning my undergraduate degree in Physics, I took advantage of a work-study opportunity at Franklin and Marshall and became a Physics and Chemistry Tutor for the introductory classes. I

At Stonehill, I developed a love for teaching and helping students work through difficult problems until the material “clicks”. I have an enthusiasm for the sciences that comes through and from my own personal experiences, I know how much a teacher/mentor figure can make in a student’s life.I try to convey the material in multiple ways to make it more understandable and relatable. I believe in guiding students to the correct answer,even if it means going astray,rather than solving problems for them,as this allows for the development of independent thinking and learning. I am patient and dedicated and believe that education is critical and that everyone should have the chance to succeed at it. I received my B.S. in Biology with Honors and was the highest ranking graduate in the sciences.The courses I have excelled in include Bio Principles,General/Organic Chem,Biochem,Cell Bio, Genetics,I

I have taught college level general and organic chemistry as a graduate student at the University of Southern California. I also have a background in Biochemistry which helps me venture into biological sciences. I am currently working at a biotechnology company as a Post Doctoral Fellow. I like to motivate my students to learn science. One way to do that is to trigger their curiosity and use that to guide them through the subject matter. I encourage them to practice problems repeatedly. This helps to embed the concepts in the brain. I am patient and easy to get along with.

My style is open to discussion. I like to ask questions to the student about the knowledge they have and based on that, apply my knowledge to build a strong base to be used as a core to solve more problems. I live the one on one interaction but also love the group discussion. I used to tutor an entire classroom during summer for 6 hours straight. I started around 2005 tutoring for the departments of chemistry and math in Queensborough Community College, from the basic levels in organic chemistry 2 and calculus. I earned my Associate degree in science from Queensborough Community College and finished my Bachelor Degree in Stonybrook University. At Stonybrook University also tutor chemistry and math. During the summer 2006, I had the entire department of chemistry tutoring under my guide. My experience comes from teaching my own classes and from interacting with my students.

I like to use the hands on approach. I find out what the weaknesses are of my students and address the topics by giving a general review. I present a problem for them to work out. After a few minutes, I ask them what they think is the best way to approach the problem. If they cannot come up with one, I then guide them through the appropriate thinking pattern in order for them to solve the problem. For me repetition of different related problems is the key to success. I elected to be a stay at home mom after a successful career. I wanted a flexible work schedule and thought about tutoring. I found that I loved tutoring students ranging from elementary to college level. I found much satisfaction in students' improved grades and the mastery of the subject that I was able to impart. I strongly believe that education is the doorway to a successful career and tough subjects such as math and sc

I believe organic chemistry can be very simple if you work hard enough at it. I can work with as many as four students at a time, and keep repeating a topic with a student until he or she understands the subject completely. I have a PhD in Organic Chemistry, a subject that is a major hurdle for pre-medical students. During my time at Tufts University, I have mentored many undergraduate students. Additionally, I won an award for Most Outstanding Teaching Assistant in the Fall of 2000.

I have earned a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) degree in Chemistry. Teaching is considered as a highly respected profession in the community where I grew up as a student. As a result, I developed a strong passion for teaching. During the last 20 years I have tutored many students in chemistry, mathematics, and sciences. Many of my family members are also teachers. My academic accomplishment in science and my desire to fight difficult diseases led me to select a career path in research for developing new and improved medicinal agents. My research profession has certainly helped me to stay up to date in my subject area and has taught me the value of collaborative and interdisciplinary team work. Thus, in my class room, I will bring the flavor of the most up to date affairs of science so my students can relate science to their day-to day life experience and feel inspired. I strongly believe,

As a passionate of the french language, I am proud to say that I speak fluently the version used in France and that I can tell the difference among many other countries'. As a native speaker, I passed the CLEP examination with a score of 80/80 towards my degree. I speak french at home and my 14-year old daughter does, too. I have about 8 undergraduate college credits and 8 graduate credits. I have about 24 undergraduate college credits in Bio, Inorganic Chemistry, Sciences for Allied Health. I also studied high school organic chemistry. I would certainly prepare each session in advance and adapt to each individual's learning style. My teaching style is to catch up mistakes and correct them but my priority is in teaching by showing examples or patterns, by practicing repetitions, by having learner write. For instance, when I took the initiative of teaching french to my newborn (now a tee

I graduated Rutgers University majoring in Biology and German, and minoring in Chemistry. I have a strong science background, which I will continue to expand by completing a PhD at Yale starting in the Fall. I have experience tutoring students in math during the last 2 years of high school, and 1 year of calculus tutoring in college. In addition, I tutor my 13 year-old sister in all the subjects of her curriculum. My approach is to determine the student's weaknesses, and then formulate analogies to explain the difficult concepts. I study the student's learning style in order to infuse the new material as easily as possible. Additionally, I introduce new ways to understand the material, and then observe the student's reaction.

I believe in tailoring my teaching style to individual students that I tutor. The two most important techniques I have used are translating academic concepts into everyday examples that students can readily understand and using positive reinforcement to help them towards their goals. Especially in the fields of math and science, I have found that learning by analogy and real world examples provides the surest path towards success. Having an excellent and extensive educational track record, I feel I am well positioned to assist current students achieve their goals. I have a JD from NYU School of Law, which helped me master such skills as reading comprehension, analytical thinking and persuasive writing. I have an MS from Yale University and a BS from William and Mary in chemistry (with a focus on organic chemistry) which has provided me with broad experience in the fields of math and
