John: CLEP College Algebra course instructor
I graduated from the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in NYC in 2008, the oldest English speaking acting conservatory in the world. I graduated Summa from University of St Thomas with a BA in English, and just wrapped up a MS in Data Science from Northwestern. I'm a huge Red Sox fan and love watching detective shows when I have free time.... Positivity. Always. I believe that if a student is given positive tools and is allowed to understand the material rather than be lectured at, they're more likely to do well in the future.

...physics. Outside of the classroom I have over 7000 hours of 1 on 1 and small group tutoring in all levels of math through college Calculus 3, physics, chemistry, SAT and ACT. SAT and ACT are my favorite subjects to tutor because they are very stressful for students and I can provide confidence. I love teaching/tutoring because of the lightbulbs. I love it when a student goes from lost to a lit light bulb of...

You can learn from the most basic atoms (don't trust them, they make up everything!) to the most complex proteins to applications in the...

In my experience, if someone knows what question to ask then they are already pretty close to the answer; they just need a push in the right direction. I like to help people talk through the problems. My job is to steer you in the right direction and help you reach that "ah-ha!" moment.

I find that difficulty in concepts often stems from trying to gloss over the more basic parts. This is the philosophy I use when I am learning and studying, as well as tutoring. I always try to be patient and take things one step at a time....

"Any fool can know. The point is to understand." -Albert Einstein... To date, I have found that it is best to view tutoring as a team endeavor. I am a player on a student's team with the goal of academic success and increased intellectual understanding. This outcome is impossible without getting down to the student's level, utilizing age appropriate vocabulary, providing constructive criticism, and establishing their baseline. I have found that reviewing a student's past work can provide me a quick glimpse into their tendencies and trends and may help to expedite their tutoring experience. I have also found that students who seek to succeed, more often do so than those who are forced to partake in tutoring sessions by their parents or guardians. Towards this end, I seek to converse with a student honestly about their motivation to pursue tutoring services and act accordingly. An unmotivated student may require some help to see how their goals in life actually do require successful completion and understanding of a particular subject. A motivated student may require support to overcome the obstacle that is holding them back, or the guidance necessary to achieve their desired aims.
