Chemistry and Math Tutor at your Service

I am a recent graduate of the University of Virginia with a B.S. degree in Chemistry-Biochemistry. Throughout my academic career, I have found myself in situations where I have had to help a fellow student in a particular math or science class. Since I have been a tutor, I have accumulated many hours and have received positive feedback from the students that I have helped. The students that I have tutored have thanked me for helping them grasp a subject that was seemingly out of their reach. In addition, they also have credited the teaching methods that I use One teaching method that I find to be helpful is to use comparisons or analogies to the concept in question. Sometimes, allowing a student to think in a way that is "outside the box" is very effective in helping him or her understand an important aspect of a particular course. In addition, I also like to create application-based ... read more

I enjoy teaching and explaining many things to individuals and small groups, of all ages, although my tutoring experience is somewhat limited. I can communicate in different styles with different people, based on how I see they can learn most effectively. Seeing the "Aha!" expression when a student has grasped a topic, especially when he or she has been frustrated, is one of my greatest rewards. Especially in math, I believe that many people find it difficult because somebody told them that math was difficult (and they believed that), or because they missed one step along the way, and everything thereafter was impenetrable.
I have earned a BS in Computer Science, with a very strong math minor. It would have been a double major, but third-year theoretical math stopped being fun (and computers were still fun). However, math up to and including first year calculus was both straightfor ... read more

My teaching style is tailored to the individual. The first thing I do when I'm trying to teach someone something is determine their learning style. If they don't know it I help them figure it out. I do find that most people learn best by diving in and doing it themselves first, while I serve as a "safety net". Whenever I was teaching new helmsmen or junior officers how to steer survey lines, I would direct them how to do it the first few times, and then when they felt ready to try it themselves, I stood back and let them, not stepping in until the absolute last second. Letting them make and try to correct their own mistakes seemed to be the best teaching tool I had.
As a NOAA Corps Officer, I helped teach new personnel many facets of our day-to-day operations, from instructing new officers on getting their Officer of the Deck qualifications to preparing new survey techs for their h ... read more
