Award-Winning Physical Chemistry Tutors serving San Mateo, CA

...teaching that I immensely enjoyed for last 10 years. My secret: success in tests (and maybe in life, too) comes from not just what we know, but what we can deliver in a short time, when demanded. I learned the methods in a hard way. I aim to work with students who are like I once was: struggling, needing an extra push, or stuck on a problem without a solution. I hope to transplant what...

'Individually, we are one drop. Together, we are an ocean. Ryunosuke Satoro. Im passionate about Ocean Conservation, Marine Exploration and protecting the environment. I've worked hard to become a better teacher and mentor. I recently completed my Masters degree at Utah State University as an Environmental Engineer. I love working with students and get them interested in science and maths, especially chemistry! ... Make it fun, relevant, and interactive. Find common ground.... Find out about the...

...science subject they offered- which was reminiscent of High School, when I took just about every AP class my school offered. If you're sensing a theme here, you're right. I can be kind of a nerd. While at Cal I tutored other students in Physics and Chemistry, and also taught an introductory Biology lab. I also spent some time tutoring High School students in various sciences as well as Spanish. I approach teaching in the...

...ensure my student would understand the basic knowledge and question first. After that, I would go further to expand their knowledge. I also need the collaboration between my client and the student along with their expectation. My parents are both high school teachers in Physics and Chemistry, so I simulated her their teaching way to tutor my friends in high school and college. My parents want to reinforce my knowledge, understand the questions, and work...

I'm passionate about helping students achieve success! I have over six years of science teaching experience from physical science to AP/IB Science. I am an experienced educator, tutor, and coach.

...at the college and high school levels. I love teaching and find the process of helping people discover how much they can do and how "easy" some of this can be once you have the right perspective awesomely satisfying! I have an undergraduate degree in mathematics and experience with graduate level math classes and numerical research. Math is one of the subjects I really love thinking and talking about. I have tutored students to prepare the...

...as a math tutor helping students with courses calculus and above. Once in graduate school, I had my first teaching opportunity as a teaching assistant for Honors General Chemistry. I strove to utilize the lessons I learned as a math tutor during my first teaching assistant position at Cornell University. After finishing my PhD, I took a position as a science educator, which has allowed me to continue my love of translating science into everyday...

...parts, and then solve them. This same thinking has made me a successful teacher in areas much broader then math and science. By breaking down a problem and identifying key points I believe I can lead any student to academic success. I discovered my love of teaching during my senior year of college. Now I hope that I can take what I am good at (math and science) and what I'm passionate about (teaching others)...

I am a recent Yale graduate with a B.S in chemical engineering. I have over 5 years of experience tutoring a wide range of subjects, and I am very passionate about math and science. My favorite part of tutoring is instilling confidence into students and making them feel that they can understand and enjoy a subject.... Everyone learns differently, but everyone can learn anything.

...rather than someone talking at you. I like tutoring to be a setting where students can feel comfortable asking questions so any knowledge gaps can be filled. I know the importance of studying hard, but also maintaining a healthy balance of fun to prevent burnout and I keep that in mind when tutoring to ensure that student's mental health is protected. A fun fact about myself is I love arts and crafts and have recently...

...of introductory science courses at the University of Michigan. Post-graduation, I have continued to tutor full-time in addition to doing research through the Michigan Clinical Outcomes Research and Reporting Program. I believe that all of the students I work with are intelligent, but often lecture-based learning does not fit their personal learning style. I love working with students to bridge this learning gap, helping them to genuinely understand course content and master homework and exams.

...MCAT. I sincerely believe that while some of the concepts presented in these subjects and tests seem initially very difficult, they become much less intimidating if you have the confidence and perspective to look at the problems from the right angle. They don't have to be so challenging! I like to connect on students' levels and help them to find that confidence. In my free time I enjoy playing guitar and collecting music, reading, and...

...questions they ask when their concepts of how things work are just forming. I try to encourage the students I tutor to ask "why?" and give them the confidence to undertake their own independent research. I enjoy spending time in the great outdoors that the Pacific Northwest offers; I also love reading, singing, playing netball, and spending time with my family. I have recently taken up running and enjoy the challenges it presents.

...prepration as well. I started taking college level math classes when I was in middle school. .When I got to college I decided to major in English because even though I had won writing awards in high school, I realized after a jarring experience in one of my college English classes, that I really didn't know how to write. (This is not surprising because on average English teachers in high school rarely spend even 5...

...of Public Health. My teaching experience spans several years and age groups. As a high school student, I volunteered as a teaching assistant for a middle school science class. During college, I spent six months as a GED tutor, working with adults. Later, I spent two years as an Organic Chemistry Laboratory teaching assistant. I am a friendly and outgoing person, and I really enjoy teaching and sharing my knowledge with others. I particularly like...

...position I did during my PhD time, the mentoring of students and junior staff during my academic appointments and at Merck, and in my adjunct faculty position at Union County College in Cranford, NJ.

I like helping my students figure out their own learning styles and then helping them maximize on their strengths. I tutor a wide range of subjects but the sciences are my personal specialty. I am fascinated with the building blocks of matter and love learning and teaching about them. If you need...

...a tutor, students sought out my services to help understand key concepts, homework practice problems, exams, and lab write-ups. My experience tutoring a diverse group of Chemistry students allows me to know where the difficulties lie, where students typically fall behind, and the pitfalls that creep up on exams. My tutoring style deconstructs concepts in a way that students can personally relate to, and by using visual analogies, I demystify the math between the atoms...

...a senior at the University of South Florida, Tampa. I graduated Valencia College in Orlando, Florida, receiving my Associate's degree with a 4.0 GPA, and, at this time, am currently pursuing my BS in Chemical and Biomedical Engineering. I began tutoring students in college, focusing heavily on math and science courses such as Algebra, Calculus, and Physics - even venturing into courses such as Organic Chemistry. I love helping students and peers understand even the...

Aside from being an avid scholar, I am a world traveler and enjoy trying new things! I also love to run, draw, read, and cook, either with friends or simply by myself. I stay in shape both mentally and physically: I am constantly training to be my best. Whenever the opportunity arises to help elevate someone, I take it. Helping a student reach their goals is equally as rewarding for my student and myself.
