Math,Test Prep (SAT,GRE,ACT,SSAT)-Expert Tutoring at one go

I believe that solving a problem shouldn’t be the only goal but understanding the concept behind that is very important. If the basics of any student is well built up then he can grasp anything easily and would always have the courage to face and solve even the toughest of the problems. So making the student realize that what he is facing isn't a problem but a challenge makes the problem look much easier and changes the entire perspective of that student towards that subject.
I have been tutoring school students since the past five years and possess outstanding knowledge and skill of providing customized tutoring to the students as per their needs. I worked as a SAT,ACT & GRE math tutor at Marconi’s Institute,India and have tutored students who achieved great results in the math/quantitative part of the tests.

Organic Chemistry, Neuroscience, and More!

I have worked within a wide expanse of teaching environments, from small group settings and classroom teaching (including lecture-based learning), down to individualized, one-on-one sessions. I have an arsenal of old exams, pre-made practice exams, and enough problemsets to keep you occupied until retirement, and am determined to help each student achieve the best possible suite of study skills, conceptual mastery, and critical thinking that will allow him/her to succeed.
I graduated from Binghamton University (SUNY) in 2008 with a double degree in Linguistics (B.A.) and Neuroscience (B.S.).

My comments on tutoring GRE : Subject test - chemistry

I was offered a fellowship by the Graduate School of City University of New York on the basis of my GRE (chemistry) scores soon after I have completed BS degree in chemistry with physics as the minor at University of Peradeniya, Sri Lanka. I have earned two masters degrees, MA in Polymer Chemistry and MS in Organic Chemistry, which has enabled me to gain admission to the doctoral program in chemistry at the University of Illinois, Urbana Champaign where I have fulfilled all requirements for the doctorate in organic chemistry except the writing and defense of the dissertation itself. In addition, I have gained extensive teaching skills in many areas of chemistry while working as a Teaching Assistant for many years.
Teaching is a vital to any academic career. My goal as a teacher is to effectively communicate the subject matter in an interesting way to the student in order to crea ... read more

Tutoring for: Writing, Reading, PSAT/SAT, ACT, GRE

I have worked at the Salem State University writing center for the last two years. At the writing center, I work with students on papers in all subjects, from math to English. My experience at the center has helped me develop methods for helping students plan and organize papers, and also for addressing grammar and style issues. I also have a lot of experience working with ESL students.
I consider myself a very laid back person and am flexible in terms of addressing the student's concerns. I primarily work in subjects related to writing. My training is in philosophy, so I tend to focus on helping students develop strong reasoning/arguing skills and a precise voice. I find that these skills, which are heavily emphasized in philosophical writing, carry over well into all forms of academic writing.

I believe that all children learn best when they experience success. Therefore, I make sure to give all my students opportunities to succeed by asking questions that challenge students to think but are not impossible to answer. My teaching style involves a combination of constructivism and direct instruction. Instead of lecturing, I pose questions, calling on students randomly. When I restate what is correct about a student's answer, my students understand that they have successfully contributed to the learning process. I point out any misconceptions that might arise before they do, so my students avoid making common mistakes. I supplement my lessons with visual representations and videos for visual learners, as well as hands-on, inquiry-based activities for tactile learners. I have extensive experience using technology in the classroom and have designed many interesting laborator ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My philosophy of tutoring is (1) Tutoring with a method of enlightenment: a chemistry textbook is full of symbols, equations, concepts etc. (2) Open two-way communication: this is based on a mutual understanding and respect for all students irrespective of their grades. Teaching and learning is a dual direction process. I always create a climate during tutoring to translate my teaching enthusiasm into students’ enthusiasm to learn. All these contribute to a successful tutoring.
Being as a teaching assistant, lab instructor is an important training in my graduate study until I obtained PhD of Chemistry. After graduation, I tutored undergraduate students for their chemistry classes. Tutoring is an efficient way to improve students' understanding and mastering chemistry knowledge. Tutoring is not just a repeat what have been taught in lecture, it is to improve capability of solving pr ... read more

Being a disciple of the late French philosopher Jean Jacques Rousseau, all the focus ought to be on the learner.

My core teaching belief is that anyone is capable of learning any subject. For advanced topics, it is necessary for students to master the fundamentals first and this is the primary job for most teachers. Frankly, mastering the fundamentals can be boring, but I strive to teach in a way that constantly engages the student. I am patient and positively support students as they work through material. I also incorporate a historical perspective on topics because it puts them into a human framework which is often more intuitive. I enjoy working with students of all ages and think that a good education can start at any time. It gives a person the tools to succeed as an individual and make positive changes in the world.
As an undergraduate I had the privilege of experiencing an elite liberal arts education. I obtained a double degree in geology and physics, through which I learned ... read more
