Award-Winning Science Tutors serving New Haven, CT

The world is not going to end if you do not get a perfect score. A perfect score should simply be a goal to strive towards. I believe in making mistakes. The best way to learn is to correct and review mistakes. This ensures that fewer and fewer errors are made in subsequent performances. Practice and discipline will lead to perfection. Those who do not learn from their mistakes are destined to repeat them.... It's okay...

...a certain topic, the greatest achievement in teaching I have experienced is giving someone the ability to reason, and the drive and ability to begin teaching themselves. I enjoy teaching certain topics because of their power to bring this about, including languages, mathematics, and (of course) philosophy. All of these areas stretch from an elementary to an advanced level, and I consider it of cardinal importance to equally value the successful communication both of elementary...

Over the course of my life I have had the good fortune of cultivating a variety and number of skill sets, some of which...

I am a junior at Johns Hopkins University studying biomedical engineering and applied mathematics. I have tutored elementary through high school students in my area in some capacity for the past four years. I am most passionate about math and science (particularly chemistry), though I am well versed in a broad range of subjects. In my spare time, I enjoy playing tennis and eating lots of good food.

I am a nationally known leader in teaching with technology, and you'll see that in each of our tutoring sessions if you'd like. We are a team! That means I...

I believe that I am very patient, kind, and willing to work as hard as I can to make sure that my students not only understand the material, but develop an appreciation for the sciences; as my past teachers have done for me. I'm an adamant believer in that there's always...

...the most fundamental aspects of a society's wellbeing, and that it is the duty of those of us who have been graced with the advantages of a good education to give back in some way; one of my motivations for tutoring is to do my part in that way. In my free time, I love playing piano, running, riding my bike, and learning languages. My strongest academic interests are languages and literature, math, and art.

...are my great passions. I've run more 5ks and 10ks than I can count, but the validation of completing a long race is nothing like the satisfying moment of writing "Q.E.D." on a difficult proof. I'm a scholar of the Western canon, greatly influenced by great thinkers and writers of the past such as Plato, Virgil, Aquinas, and Anselm. I love to read and to discuss what I've read, and I heartily appreciate a good...

I believe that one of the biggest flaws in education is the lack of intimacy between teachers and their pupils. Instead of teaching students en masse, a more optimal approach is to make each lesson fit for the particular student. I have carried out this philosophy while tutoring in the past and I intend to continue doing so in the present and in the future.... The exact approach to responding to difficulty learning varies based on...

...approach. In high school I started a student success center during covid to provide free online tutoring, providing tutors in all subjects during set hours of the week.

I have gone through the college application process...

I also enjoy...
