...in the world. The instant smiles and thanks I receive after illuminating a difficult concept is almost addictive. I have a unique experience with academics (and especially mathematics) which has helped me relate to students: I used to hate school. After high school I promised myself I would never sit through another lecture or crack open a text book. My most hated subject was mathematics. I just refused to sit there and mindlessly solve for...

...As someone aspiring to be a doctor I have a strong science and math background but have striven to become a well rounded student.

I love to see students succeed after struggling with even the most difficult problems and concepts. Often times It can take a person long hours to approach these problems.

I tutor many science topics, some math topics, nutrition, and health. My teaching and tutoring style is...

...grew up along the sandy beaches and bustling cities of Massachusetts and after college, I decided I wanted to embark on an adventure, so I relocated to Seattle. During my undergraduate career, I tutored college students for three years in math, biology, some chemistry, writing/English, and a myriad of other subjects. Although I majored in the hard sciences, my favorite subjects to tutor in are English and writing. I enjoy reading student's original thoughts and...

...university level--at this point two years' worth working directly with both students and professors--but just as important as that, I understand just as well what it's like to need that sort of tutoring as well. I understand the importance of a non-judgmental atmosphere in which all questions can be asked without fear, of a friendly and empathetic peer who knows why difficulties arise and how to overcome them, and of a source not just of...

...years experience tutoring middle and high school age students, particularly in math and English, in the Los Angeles area. I am patient and understanding, and my goal is to foster a comfortable environment and mutual respect.

These experiences have led me to pursue a career in...
