"Hello my name is Ryan and I am currently a graduate student in Computer and Information Technology. I graduated with honors, with a BS in Chemistry with minors in Physics and Biology. Afterwards, I attended graduate school for Physics and obtained an MA. While I do love the sciences, the most important thing is that I love to learn. With the help of great teachers and professors through the years, I found that many of these tough subjects can be interesting and comprehensible, and through tutoring, I hope to help you on your own learning journey.

I have around 4+ years of overall teaching and learning experience. I started tutoring during undergrad, working at our school's Learning Commons, tutoring various Chemistry courses, and University Physics. Most of these sessions were done one on one, with students bringing their own materials that they wished to discuss. Occasionally I helped run group sessions, where multiple students would come in with different problems. Afterwards, in my physics graduate program, I worked as a Introductory Chemistry Lab TA and recitation instructor. These classes were around 15-20 students, were in a classroom setting and were much more general with lesson plans to follow.

Now, I seek new opportunities to keep giving back what I have learned. I am currently in the early stages of my new graduate program in Computer Science, so my current experiences in that are in Java and Python. I am most comfortable tutoring General Chemistry as well as Java or Python-based Computer Science, but I also am able to tutor Introductory Physics. In order to best aid the students, I welcome any external resources that they provide so as to make sure that I understand what exactly they are needing to do." less...
