Judgement-free and effective!

- I am best with long-term subject tutoring (homework help and class notes) and test prep (for example, a review session before an intimidating unit test). - I usually teach conversationally through lots of problem solving targeted on your weak areas. However, if you want to try something different, please let me know!
*If you contact me, please send me an email address at which I can reach you! Thank you. If I have availability you will hear from me within 24 hours.* I'm a recent Princeton engineering grad and current Northwestern engineering PhD student with 7 years of tutoring experience. I'm familiar with the types of exams you might be taking - back in the day, I scored 5s on the AP tests for Chemistry, Physics B, Physics C (Mech and E&M), Calculus BC, and Statistics, 800s on the SAT II tests for Math, Physics, and Chemistry, and 800s on the SAT Math and Critical Reading - a ... read more

If I can't get excited about my subject, why should my students? I believe anyone can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate surroundings and learning experiences. A few good educators can make a world of difference in anyone's education. The teachers who I have had that stand out in my memory have some attributes in common: they presented subjects in a way that caught my interest, clarified difficult topics, and led me through complex areas by putting knowledge into context so that its relevance was apparent. These role models have influenced my approach to teaching: I view myself primarily as a facilitator of learning, rather than as an expert who simply delivers information to students.
I am a highly experienced, result-driven professional with a passion for teaching/tutoring science, math, and engineering. I am also a graduate with a Masters of Science in Che ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that the most effective teacher is one who guides the students to finding the correct answers. Instead of simply giving out answers, a teacher should encourage students and help them along the process for them to find out the solutions on their own. By overseeing this learning process and helping along the way, the teacher ensures that the student will learn that they are capable of learning the material and further increase their confidence in academics.
I obtained a strong liberal arts education where I was able to experience and learn about a wide range of academic topics. However, I have a strong focus and specialization in the sciences with a BA in both Biology and Chemistry with a Mathematics minor. Math and science has been a strong area of mine, as I was a Supplemental Instructor for a genetics course for two semesters, as well as being a Laboratory Assistant that ... read more

I believe that all students have the ability to learn any material. However, many students have different ways of doing so. By identifying the students strong points, one can help the student learn. Also, one can relate information that the student doesn't know to things that the student knows a lot about, making learning much easier. With the appropriate surroundings and certain guidance, I believe that any student can improve and exceed expectations.
I have several years of experience in tutoring. I began as a volunteer tutor for a few chemistry classes during undergraduate study, and was eventually hired as a teaching assistant at Illinois Wesleyan University. I am continuing my education and am enrolled at Loyola University-Chicago for graduate study working towards a Ph.D. in Organic Chemistry. I was selected for a teaching assistantship for 3 classes at Loyola. I have tut ... read more
