Award-Winning Tutors serving West Chester, PA

...B.A. and M.A. in English, and a M.F.A. in Creative Writing. I have been tutoring writing since 2014. I truly enjoy discussing syntax, content, and structure, not only because I may impart my own knowledge and experience, but because I may learn from the incredible diversity and uniqueness with which people approach language. I believe tutoring is mutual, and I am excited to work with as many different students as possible. I enjoy novel writing,...

...for two years, and I am continuing to teach Mandarin and Cantonese on college campus. I was born in Guangdong, China, and I moved to the states when I was in middle school, thus allowing me to be completely fluent in all three languages. I value my culture a lot, and even until today, I still maintain the habit of reading at least one book in Chinese every 2 weeks. I love personalized tutoring, so...

...draws on the strengths that I developed throughout college and during my months of preparation for the test. While the LSAT is challenging, it is learnable, and with a basic understanding of logical concepts and some key strategies to approach each section, anyone is capable of improving his/her score significantly. These concepts and strategies helped boost my score 17 points over the course of 2 months. As someone who has recently gone through the law...

...taken the new MCAT and believe that I can teach my tools for success to any pre-student willing to learn them. I have been a teaching assistant for both General Chemistry I and II for two semesters each and have taught CPR, AED, First Aid to Salt Lake City Citizens.

...and minored in Math. I'm an experienced standardized test taker, and I am passionate about helping students achieve their academic potential! I have tutored elementary school through college students in reading comprehension, math, SAT prep, and chemistry, and even started an afterschool engineering program for elementary school students. I am a strong proponent of framing intelligence as a muscle that is strengthened over time rather than an innate characteristic. While I'm not tutoring, I enjoy...

...through AP Calculus, SAT test prep, and French. I've been tutoring students in science and math for 7 years. I also spent 8 months working and studying in France, and have tutored high school and adult students in French. When I'm not working or studying, I love playing volleyball (indoors or on the beach!) and spending time outside, canoeing or hiking with my dog. I look forward to meeting and working with you!

...that enthusiasm, especially when challenges are encountered in the learning process. Without these steps, the progress of the student will be much slower, if there is any at all. One on one teaching sessions are uniquely designed to better accomplish these steps. Perhaps your student's teacher has been too busy to really get to know him or her, or perhaps their personalities simply clash, which makes the learning process much more difficult for your child....

...to tutees in a way that meets them at their level. As a tutor, I seek to ground material and strategies in reality, drawing connections to real world situations, as it gives the material purpose and enhances tutees' understanding of the concepts. I personally find mathematics most enjoyable to tutor, as I find that its stigma of difficulty makes it especially satisfying for students once the material is made more digestible and relatable. In my...

...sociology and a double minor in visual arts and philosophy. During my undergraduate career I worked with students as young as preschool and as old as high school seniors on their reading and writing skills. I truly believe that reading and writing is the key to understanding and interacting with the world in a positive way. I know certain books have changed my life and I hope to instill the same passion I have for...

I'm a recent graduate from the University of Pennsylvania who studied Linguistics and Deaf Studies. I eventually hope to work towards breaking down barriers between the Deaf and hearing worlds and encouraging greater focus on reforming Deaf education practices.

In September, I'll be pursuing my Masters Degree in London at the Sotheby's Institute of Art.... I believe there is no model that fits any one student and that getting to know that student and his or her learning process is integral to teaching him or her effectively and...

...involved in peer tutoring all throughout high school and am currently also a tutor with the West Philadelphia Tutoring Project. I have found that tutoring is such a fulfilling way to help others succeed while learning new information myself. It also allows me to build new and lasting relationships with those I work with, which is something I have come to value. Outside of school/work, I enjoy dancing, reading, listening to music, and hanging out...

...accustom to reframing concepts in order to make them more comprehendible. In addition to my educational qualifications, I am personable and can connect with my students. In elementary school I was diagnosed with dyslexia. With the help of my mother, a former teacher, as well as in school learning support, I was able to learn how to cope with my disability. This experience has provided me with familiarity with effective tutoring techniques. It also gives...

...sciences can be learned by any student, even those for whom it might feel a little more challenging. Working as a tutor for biology, organic chemistry, general chemistry, and neuroscience, I actively implemented this philosophy, finding creative ways to approach complex concepts. For example, I might steer a writing student studying organic chemistry to explain a reaction as a narrative of molecular interactions, rather than beginning with a complex problem. In the context of shifting...

...sessions. I emphasize a strategy based approach to studying, and keep an updated list of strategies that my students are finding helpful. I prefer to test mastery of material via a role reversal in which I see if the student can teach me how to correctly solve problems and arrive at the correct answers. In my opinion, there is no better way to assess the depth and breadth of one's knowledge than to try to...

...myself! I also provide application advice for applying to Dental school. After taking my DAT, I applied to 8 dental schools and was accepted to 7 of them!

This included teaching an introduction to chemistry lab course and being a peer-mentor and President of the Making Doctors Club, a community of aspiring health professionals...

Since moving to Philadelphia, I have been enjoying exploring everything the city has to offer because I really am a city girl at heart. I believe that everybody is unique, so I try to adapt my tutoring style to fit every student's individual needs and personality. I try to connect the material to the real world because when you can relate to what you are learning...

I am currently wrapping up my teaching certification program teaching American History in a Philadelphia public school.

...it provides me the opportunity to work with young people and help them learn and help them get ready for college life. I had some great experiences with classes of students and individual students as well.
