...and wonderful truth. Math is something to be enjoyed. I believe that while knowing the formulas and procedures is important, memorizing mathematical formulas without appreciating the concepts is akin to memorizing the lines of a Shakespeare play without paying attention to the underlying prose. My strongest subjects are linear algebra and pre-calculus though I am proficient at tutoring all high school and college underclassmen mathematical subjects. I hope that my passion is contagious and that...

Certified Organic Chemistry Tutor in Philadelphia, PA
...because of the many "Aha!" moments when students suddenly make connections from chemistry to the real world. My experience with tutoring has led me to believe that discovery-based learning is the best way to solidify concepts. For this reason I focus on teaching how to use the tools available, like modeling kits and textbooks. In addition to being a huge science nerd, I love reading classics, playing ultimate frisbee, and watching weird sci-fi shows.

Certified Organic Chemistry Tutor in Philadelphia, PA
If students remain teachable and avoid shutting down, they will have the extra energy and potential to learn. In addition to the students' attitude, the teacher must be dynamic, allow relearn/retakes and urge students to get outside help. Hearing the same information from a different teacher can make a huge difference in retention.... The more and more I come across chemistry students, the more I see them trying to "rote" memorization. Since it is cumulative, you...
