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

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

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 as many ways as needed, so that I can match the subject to the student's style of learning.
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 ... read more

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

I have a passion for chemistry, and I have used that passion to inspire and motivate youth to pursue and enjoy chemistry. I have earned a degree in chemistry, but I have extensive knowledge in Biology, Calculus, Algebra and Physics.
I alter my teaching curriculum and style to fit the student’s individual needs and learning requirements. I believe in making the subject fun and exciting! Teaching should be a partnership that involves lots of interaction.

Welcome! I believe it important to make any material a student is learning ‘realistic’. I am a father and understand the need for patience, accepting individual needs and developing a child's sense of purpose. I strive to present real-life examples that apply to the material being studied, and then focus on practice. While repetition (using worksheets or going over the process from different directions) is important, my goal is to explore the concept so that the student is capable of addressing the problem AND understands the theory behind it. I am convinced that any student can learn any material, provided the tools to learn, study and find resources. Thank you for your time and consideration. Sincerely, Bill Adams

I attended Foss H.S. in Tacoma and was awarded the International Baccalaureate diploma with the highest cumulative score in my class. I then attended the University of Chicago, where I earned a B.S. degree in Geology in 2006. I have a solid background in math, chemistry and physics as well as the liberal arts, and I have experience writing both for the sciences and the humanities. In high school I tutored ESL middle and elementary school students in reading, writing and math. In college I tutored underprivileged students in math and reading at a South Side grade school and spent several months as a teacher’s assistant in a Kindergarten class. Most recently, I tutored ESL students in algebra, geometry, general science and English.
As a tutor, I work through problems/passages with a student to determine weak points to address and to find ways for the student to connect with the ... read more

I will be upfront, I was known as a firm, but fair, teacher. I see science as a field primarily learned through doing, and I enjoy performing science demonstrations with my students to help illustrate new concepts. At the same time, I expect students to attempt to solve problems on their own, as opposed to simply memorizing how I solve problems. While it is sometimes difficult at first, I find it gives them confidence to approach future concepts and ideas both in and out of the specific science course.
As a high school teacher, I facilitated the instruction of approximately 100 students in Chemistry in accordance with Massachusetts Learning Standards. Developed and implemented course curriculum for the Forensic Science course, including labs featuring gun shot residue testing, urinalysis, and DNA electrophoresis . Supervised the after-school chemistry tutoring program for all high ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style involves being open and relatable while keeping he conversation related to learning and the subjects of importance. I feel like students respond best when they are in a positive work environment and are pushed to be their best. This involves teaching through the Socratic method, of forcing individuals to answer their own questions. I believe that tutors and teachers should be providing students with the tools and skills they need to be productive students instead of giving away answers.
I have been tutoring as a volunteer and as a job for a combined 7 years now. I have worked in both one on one tutoring with a dyslexic student, tutoring in specialized topics, and group peer tutoring. My longest individual tutoring experience has been with Aidan, who is dyslexic and I have been working with for 4 years. We focus on taking the larger, more daunting tasks and b ... read more

I graduated from the University of Washington last year with a BA in Journalism. I've also received an AA Degree from Highline Community College. Unlike many Journalism students, I have experience in arithmetic like algebra, pre-calculus and calculus. I've tutored students in math and writing, from first graders to college peers.
I am a very patient, hands-on style of tutor. I take the time and try to explain things to people who have a hard time understanding. I try to gage what the student is struggling with and also what they do understand, so I can quickly pinpoint their troubles and focus on the problem issue. Some kids need more explaining, others need a picture drawn out for them. I am good at finding what method people learn best with.

I am very flexible in my teaching style and usually spend the first session gauging how the student learns. I am very patient and understanding however I strive to help the student discover their full potential. I have used many creative methods to teaching to include relating addition and subtraction to yards down on a football field, teaching trig by building and launching rockets, basically connecting what needs to be learned to what interests the student.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe any student irrespective of cultural, ethnic, religious and family background is capable of achieving final destination of his/her career, such as doctor, engineer, chemist, nurse, technician etc. In order to attain this, he/she needs to be helped, guided, encouraged, and motivated by an experienced tutor. I like to help studensts by checking their weekness of knowledge in a particular topic of a subject through various tests and help them out by explaining in different ways with appropriate examples. The purpose is to make the subject more interesting so that the student is motivated to seek knowledge in order to exhibit excellence.
