My comments on tutoring MCAT : I took the MCAT before the recent revision. I scored a 40 which got me into three medical schools. I got my PhD in chemistry instead. Physical: 13 Biological: 14 Verbal: 13

I am an organic chemist. I will only teach you at the level you are assigned. My background makes it easier for you. Anyone can learn organic chemistry or the other subjects and standardized exams I've tutored. I focus on understanding and independence with a minimum of memorization. In fact, that's the only difference between an "A" and something that is unacceptable. I hold a 100% pass rate (or better). I've learned how to make the subject simple, save you time, and learn so you retain it. We work at your pace (nothing else works) but we make progress immediately.
I establish rapport with students and quickly gauge what the difficulties are and what they concerns are. I guide you through the process and make is a step by step process to outperform others, maintain peace of mind and graduate on time. Confidence is essential in organic. We build that first and clear ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I am a recent college graduate who plans to attend medical school at some point in the future. In completing my pre-medicine requirements, I successfully completed a large number of science courses. I am also interested in writing and editing and I often assisted younger students with their papers throughout college. During the spring semester of 2006 and 2007, I was a teaching assistant for the chemistry department at St. Olaf College. My duties included setting up laboratory experiments, preparing to teach concepts relevant to those experiments, assisting students with questions, and grading their work.
I have realized that the best test of whether you understand something is to be able to teach it successfully to another person. Though being prepared is not a direct part of the tutor-student interaction, it is absolutely necessary for the tutor to be prepared far beyond the basi ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Throughout my educational career I have always enjoyed science classes. Due to this proficiency I was selected as a teacher's assistant for two undergraduate Biology classes. I also took 3 science based education classes. These classes were a great experience where we worked at a local high school with three exceptional science teachers. During the school year, I also taught a six week Saturday science experience to 4th -6th graders; then in the summer I taught at two different science camps. After college, I chose to become a dental student at the University of Colorado School of Dental Medicine.
My approach to tutoring is based on the belief that science is a fun and interesting subject. I always maintain a positive attitude and attempt to teach science without being boring. I have good communication skills and can work with students in a constructive, encouraging, and non-a ... read more

From September ‘08 - January ‘10 I was at the UCD – LRC tutoring students in Biology, Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, and Biochemistry doing individual tutoring as well as multiple-student tutoring. I sincerely enjoyed my work at the LRC for it gave me the opportunity to become accomplished in many different areas. It strengthened my understanding in the above subjects and my leadership skills. I was able to motivate students in their coursework by using the perspective and experiences of a student and practice being a leader in large groups of students. Working at the LRC gave me a new understanding of myself, as well as a new found self-confidence with not only my own knowledge of the material, but also a confidence in teaching others.
During my time at the LRC, I developed a teaching style where I first understood the learning style of the student (i.e. visual or auditory) and the ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I obtained a BA from CU at Boulder in 2004 in Psychology and Communications and I am now currently one year away from attending medical school. I have taken all the science courses required to get into medical school and have been tutored in many of them as a supplemental form of education. In my time being tutored many other students realized how much more knowledge of the subject i had gained above them that they in turn recruited me to tutor them. I have been doing that for approximately six years.
I am a Visual learner/teacher, I feel it is much easier to learn when being able to visualize what is happening. Many of the sciences happen at such a microscopic level that it may be hard to comprehend what is actually happening so with larger visual aides I believe learning is much easier and less stressful.

Perhaps stemming from my time as the owner of a successful construction company, I've found that I learn best when I'm provided mental imagery, which often means the employment of analogies and metaphors. Cell biology became simplified when viewed as the textile manufacture and the subsequent distribution and utilization of the products. Due to being a non-traditional student I've also realized that patience is imperative. I've felt like instructors have given up on me in the past, only to keep forging ahead either by myself or with the aid of a tutor and eventually master whatever material was at hand. Also, my experience in the past few years in the E.R. has allowed me to become adept in dealing with and defusing difficult situations.
My experience as a non-traditional student has payed huge dividends not only for me, but for those I've helped during my time as a T.A. and tutor. ... read more
