Throughout my undergraduate studies at the University of Illinois, I developed a passion for teaching and helping others achieve the academic success that I enjoyed. I tutored during each of my final three years, mostly in the various science classes that I took. During the past year, I have been teaching the Physics section of the MCAT for the Princeton Review, a nationwide test prep company. I have also tutored for a couple different companies, ranging from Geometry and Algebra to Organic Chemistry. I have always felt that tutoring should offer a much more laid-back approach at getting concepts across to students. This is a chance to learn material in an environment that doesn't bear the pressures and stresses of the classroom and achieving a certain grade. Also as opposed to a classroom, I feel that the student should have the floor. This is their time to ask questions and talk

I obtained a high honors degree (Magna Cum Laude) in Biology, with a minor in Chemistry in 2005. Due to an outstanding GPA (3.74/4.00), I began to teach even as an undergraduate student. I was hired by the Athletics Department to help my fellow students obtain higher GPAs even with their busy athletic schedules. Upon graduation, I continued to volunteer my services and also got hired as a private tutor from 2005-2009. Subjects I tutored included Math, Science, Biology, and Chemistry. In 2009 I was employed as a Princeton Review Instructor in Organic Chemistry for MCAT Examination takers. In summary, I have approximately 6 years of teaching experience. In my 6 years of teaching experience I’ve come to find out that there is no such thing as a “stupid question.” Each child or adult has a specific way of learning according to their own character. That’s the reason some are faster to learn m

In my time as a student, I have experienced both extremely poor teaching styles and teaching styles that caused the learning process to be a literal joy to undertake. Upon consideration, I realized that, although some students like some teachers better than others, the truly magnificent teachers had several key features. These teachers were amicable and approachable, they made learning fun, and their classrooms were run with discipline and order. I incorporate all these aspects into my teaching style, striving to make my help a pleasure to receive. With this pleasure, comes the desire to learn; and with this desire to learn, the education process is made a little smoother for my students. Ever since I can remember I have enjoyed helping others to learn. There is something indescribably fulfilling in imparting knowledge to others. During my time in college I earned a BS in Biology with

I have more than 15 years of first-rate, proven, high-quality teaching experience at the college level, as well as a very successful history of helping students out in one-on-one tutoring experience (including online homework help). I have taught courses ranging from Chemistry, Math, French, etc. to students of various backgrounds, and I have always managed, without fail, to meet them where they are and help them until they 'get it' and are more than satisfied with my help. As a rule, I just don't give out answers; I will, however, patiently and warmly work with the student until s/he "gets it", until s/he ends up with a smile of satisfaction on his/her face. To this end I will: a. try to understand what the student knows already b. try to understand what s/he is struggling with c. take him/her from there and work with him/her until s/he gets it.

I love science and love to teach! I believe that teaching is an intentional effort. It’s not just about presenting information, but also about motivating. I set high standards, but also emphasize that science can be fun. As a tutor, I will provide a positive environment that focuses on what can be done, not on what can’t. My teaching approach is hand-on and my experience as a consultant provides me with a variety of real-life examples of how science is used and applied. Whenever possible, we’ll look beyond the textbook and translate to an application so that information “sticks”. I also emphasize good writing skills and organizational thought. My education includes degrees in Biology, Environmental Science, and Education. Some of my coursework included botany, zoology, chemistry, physics, ecology, scientific methods and writing. As an environmental consultant for the past 23 years, I’ve
