More About This Tutor...

I am LAVANYA RANI, MSc, Ph.D in Chemistry. I have done my schooling, graduation and post graduation in India at Osmania University ( Hyderabad, A.P, India ). Due to ill health and couple of surgeries I had to be away from working. I recently came to the US right now am on dependent visa. ( H-4 ). My utmost passion towards teaching made me to apply here and I am more interested rather believe in conceptual teaching. I want to make the child understand the core concept rather than superficial understanding. I can take conceptual classes for middle and high school science subjects. I don't have any experience in the US but used to take private tutoring in India for 9th, 10th and 11th standards.

It's harder than it looks.

I have 5 years experience teaching elementary and middle school students with 1 year of teaching a special needs student with Autism. Additionally, I have been a university tutor in Chemistry, Physics, and Mathematics employed by UC Santa Cruz for the last two years where I tutored and led large group sessions targeted toward understanding the material, key study skills, and development of study groups.

Physics is one of my top subjects! Having freshly recieved a degree in Phyiscs, I am confident in my abilities to explain any high school or undergraduate level material.

Problem solving is the best way to learn a technical skill. For instance, in mathematics homework usually consists of a set of problems that the student must solve. By watching how students approach and solve these problems, I can both assess the student's understanding of the material and help them make the logical connections needed to better understand the material. Additionally, I encourage students to adopt the mentality that science and math can actually be fun and a worthwhile use of time.
Throughout high school I tutored students aged 9-14 in a variety of subjects ranging from math to music. I have also tutored informally as a college student, mostly helping coach peers through lower-division physics or math series. In addition, I volunteered for 5 years as a teachers assistent in an elementary and middle school setting, so I understand the dynamics of working with (sometim ... read more

As a Ph. D graduate in Chemistry, I was driven by pursuing a high level education and success in science and professional experiences. I had tutored college chemistry for 5 years, including general chemistry, organic chemistry, physical chemistry and biochemistry etc. when I was a teaching assistant in the graduate school. I believe all young people and children can learn chemistry very well if they get a suitable methodology, although chemistry is a challenge scientific field. In addition, I have extensive skills in oral presentation, and writing reports and proposals etc. This communication skill also can help young people to succeed in their future.
I enjoy teaching and communicating with all young people and children who are interested in sciences and chemistry. My teaching style is focused on two sides. One is to explain basic concepts systematically and clearly, then let stud ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Due to my extensive experience in tutoring students of all ages, I am very good at tailoring my teaching toward the specific student's needs. I am very patient, communicate concepts in an easy to understand manner, and work hard to help the student understand the material. While tutoring math & physics, I generally explain the material first, and then work through a few example problems with the student. I then have the student solve a few problems on their own. I try to make sure that the student understands the material by asking them questions to engage them in the learning process. I am very supportive and know that a little encouragement can go a long way.
I have been tutoring since high school & I absolutely love it. In 12th grade, I tutored fellow students grades 9-12 at my high school's tutorial center in various math, science, & spanish classes. Every Sunday, I taught my n ... read more

Easy going, supportive, hard working, direct, open, and encouraging. My style is to find real world experiences to provide examples for learning. This approach stimulates students to actually enjoy chemistry instead of thinking of it as something difficult or uninteresting. I've also found that the carrot approach works much better than the stick. Everyone can make the grade or higher by being encouraged and helped.
Teaching 5-10 years of college level organic chemistry, physical chemistry, inorganic chemistry, biology, biochemistry, and intro chemistry. Also, I've served as a full time lab assistant. I've had extensive experience in both designing exams, lecturing, tutoring, and providing special assistance to students. As an attorney, I have always been driven to achieve high levels of excellence in my field. Over the last 20 years I have practiced as a patent attorney i ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As an engineer and mathematician I have experience in all areas of Aerospace engineering,including management and mentoring of engineers over much of my 44 year career at Lockheed Martin. I have also tutored math, phyics, and other related subjects.
My approach to teaching math and science is to thoroughly prepare a student by first emphasizing the fundamentals. Too many students get "lost" if advanced concepts are taught too soon. Then, once a student is ready, the studies should emphasize the students strengths and interests to the utmost possible.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that an effective tutor must have the ability to inspire students to explore new concepts and to discover their own modes of understanding, while also providing a strong anchor in the fundamentals of the subject matter. No single explanation of a physical phenomenon, grammatical structure, or mathematical problem will make sense to everyone and it is the challenge of the tutor to work with each student to discover how they can best understand the material. It's an exciting challenge, and I hope to encourage in my students the same curiosity and passion that I share for learning.
As an engineering graduate student at Stanford University for the last 4 years, I have seen firsthand the importance of developing a strong background in mathematics, the sciences, and the humanities. Prior to graduate school, I attended a liberal arts college that focused on technical rigor, b ... read more
