Studying biochemistry and cell biology at Rice means Sugi already had to internalize the thermodynamic and kinetic principles that drive cellular processes — free energy calculations for metabolic reactions, equilibrium constants governing binding events — before tackling them in their pure mathemat...

Rice's chemistry curriculum put Asad through the full p-chem gauntlet — thermodynamics, quantum mechanics, kinetics — and his path to medical school at UT Houston means he's had to internalize concepts like enthalpy, entropy, and equilibrium well enough to apply them in biological and clinical conte...

Mechanical engineering at Rice means Aleksey has been solving thermodynamic cycles, heat transfer problems, and differential equations for years — the exact mathematical toolkit that p-chem throws at students in a chemistry wrapper. He breaks down topics like entropy, enthalpy, and phase equilibria ...

Environmental statistics at Rice required Alex to work extensively with the same calculus-heavy quantitative methods — differential equations, statistical modeling, multivariable analysis — that students encounter in thermodynamics and kinetics derivations throughout a p-chem sequence. His geography...

Pre-med coursework at Rice plus dual degrees in environmental sciences and ecology meant Daniel was solving energy balance problems and applying thermodynamic reasoning to natural systems well before encountering p-chem's formal derivations. His lab technician work at Rice keeps the quantitative ski...

Studying chemistry at UT while simultaneously tutoring undergraduates in math, chemistry, and physics gave Joshua a feel for exactly where p-chem's conceptual layers collide — the moment a thermodynamics derivation turns into a calculus problem, or when quantum mechanical notation obscures an otherw...

I'm not tutoring or buried in my textbooks, you will either find me rock climbing at the Triangle Rock Club, playing Ultimate Frisbee, working on my car, or enjoying the great outdoors (beaches, mountains, forests--you name it, I love it). On rainy weekends I enjoy tinkering with computers and old e...

I am an interdisciplinary educator with an Ed.M. from the Harvard Graduate School of Education and a B.A. from Dartmouth College. My background is primarily in integrated arts learning and museum education and I specialize in visual arts, history and art history, and object-based learning. In all su...

I am a recent graduate from a masters program in biostatistics at Columbia University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in biological sciences, with a focus in neurobiology at Northwestern University. In August, I will be starting a doctoral program in biostatistics at NYU. I was a teaching assistant ...

I am a graduate of Wesleyan University, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in Sociology with High Honors. With eight years of experience working in education, I've tutored students in math, science, history, and English, as well as helped students prepare for standardized tests. I've guided adults...

I am a graduate of Washington University in St Louis, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in History with minors in Humanities and Anthropology. Since graduation, I have worked as a tutor, teacher, and director of tutors at a charter public middle school in Boston. During this time I also received ...

I am a junior Mechanical Engineering major at Yale, and I hope to become a Naval Aviator after college. I am also a varsity sailor, and enjoy playing music with friends when I can get some free time. I have been tutoring my fellow students throughout my entire academic career, and I would best descr...

I'm Solange - a recent graduate from Harvard where I studied Sociology & Women's Studies. I've been tutoring for eight years now, and have worked with a wide range of ages and in a wide range of subjects. Some of my specialties are college prep/test taking II worked in the admissions office on campu...

I am proud to be a part of Varsity Tutors! I am originally from San Antonio, TX; I completed my undergraduate education at Rice University in Houston where I received a bachelor's degree in Biochemistry and Cell Biology. Currently, I am in my second year of medical school at Baylor College of Medici...

I am a rising sophomore at Harvard College and am about to declare as a Mechanical Engineering concentrator, working towards a Bachelor of Science degree. I've always enjoyed sharing my knowledge with my peers and those around me and have done so in both formal and informal settings. I've been a tut...
