"Hello! I am Nick, a recent graduate of Dartmouth College in New Hampshire where I studied Biological Sciences and English on the pre-med track. Through my lifelong pursuit of knowledge, I've realized there is one thing I like even more than learning... teaching.

As a tutor, I abide by the philosophy that teaching is more about a guiding a student to their own effective learning path than just a simple transmission of knowledge. Nowadays, with YouTube, ChatGPT and the plethora of online resources, there is no dearth of information available at the tips of our fingertips. Information, however, is not the goal of learning, and a student is not simply a repository for facts. The purpose of education is to enable a student to critically understand a subject from the ground up and be able to deploy that understanding in solving complex problems. I believe in an approach that promotes thorough understanding of a subject rather than pursuit of high marks. At first, this understanding may be a slow process, but upon its strong foundations, the apprehension of higher level learning becomes easier and more gratifying, building from a solid core rather than each new topic standing alone. This requires commitment from both student and teacher. Bringing passion and patience to my teaching, I excel in evoking energy from my students, and on my end, will always be available to respond to any questions and concerns.

My tutoring experience spans subjects, from creative and expository writing to systems biology. I also have experience tutoring in Algebra, Physics and Chemistry at a High School level. I am experienced, a passionate tutor and excited to help you learn. Please contact me with any additional questions or to schedule a lesson!" less...
