"I have graduated from Colorado School of Mines in Chemical Engineering. I specialize in teaching problem solving and critical thinking for standardized tests and chemistry, physics, math. When I was very young, I got tutoring from numerous instructors in various classes from Chess to AP Science Classes like chemistry and physics and the SAT. The tutoring always tremendously strengthened my understanding of the concepts and helped me achieve high scores and gave me a sense of satisfaction. As a result, I am very motivated to become an online tutor today because I want to give back to the student community and help other students achieve their goals and truly offer essential advice on test taking strategies. For the past 4 years, I have been a chemical engineering student at the Colorado School of Mines. Through individual Facebook pages, connections, family friends and mutual relationships at School of Mines, I have tutored mainly chess, chemistry, differential equations, Calculus 1 through 3, physics, and the SAT. Because I had the opportunity to take many advanced math and science classes like AP Calculus BC, Calculus III, AP Chemistry, and AP Physics C, I had the pleasure of working with a range of students with very different skill sets and areas of knowledge. Not only was I able to help them visualize and deeply understand the concepts, I also gave them very specific advice on how to do better on tests and maximize their potential like starting off a test with the easy questions to warm up/prepare the brain and save time for the harder ones at the end. Overall, when a student finds success and growth, I really take that to my heart and feel like I have succeeded. One of the biggest reasons why I love tutoring is working with the student and connecting with them, and seeing their individual growth throughout the process, which is quite rewarding for me and it means a lot to me. Overall, I can offer very detailed and simple explanation for understanding concepts." less...
