The first thing I do is highlight the central theme of each chapter, then work on central idea of each paragraph and tie it together to some unique concept.

I also try to identify the source of a student's obstacles, and work to solve these fundamental issues as well. I am...

...all of the subjects I specialize in, I love tutoring students in physics (specifically, mechanics and waves). Physics is my favorite subject to tutor because while it is more difficult to demonstrate phenomena from other subjects such as organic chemistry, physics is a very prevalent science, so even by rolling my pencil off of a table, I can easily demonstrate physics concepts to my students. For me, hearing "Oh, that makes so much more sense...

...laboratory whenever necessary. I remember hearing stories of how I was not quite tall enough as the lab counter and had to stand on my toes to get a better view of the PCR machine whenever she used it. I wasn't really interested in what it did, but rather, in the noise it made- a low, grumbling hum. Then, there was the fume hood, a glass and metal contraption that I thought was from another...

In the past one could survive on raw memorization and recall power for an above-par score, but this newly structured exam requires a different approach - a more cohesive and integrated one.
