If you are a student in middle school to undergrad, I will help you achieve maximal academic performance and obtain concrete grasps on the most difficult topics.
I recently graduated with departmental honors and Dean's List from Columbia University with a major in Chemistry and Math. In March, I was awarded "Most Outstanding Senior Undergraduate Organic Chemistry Student" by the American Chemical Society, which is only awarded to a few undergraduates in the entire country. Throughout college I was a tutor and Teaching Assistant for organic chemistry courses. I am an active organic chemistry researcher and will be beginning a PhD in Chemistry next fall. Before college, I began tutoring in sixth grade and have continued since, teaching different courses via freelance work and through requests from teachers. More information about me is that I have won math competitions since grade school, placed 98th percentile for my SAT, and took 15 AP courses. My academic experiences since elementary school have allowed me to be familiar with a vast breadth of classes, content, and topics. From chemistry to history, my recent experiences as a high schooler, college applicant, and undergrad will enable me to help you excel.
My tutoring philosophy comprises two key axioms: balancing theory with practice and individualized learning methods. Balancing theory and practice enables students to have firm understandings on a theoretical level to utilize when practicing questions. Too much theory, students can't apply it properly. Too much practice, students struggle solving new problems. Secondly, I know the best explanations and solving methods differ for each student, so I will find the optimal strategies for each student. Lesson plans include three phases: Before: Send topics, assignments, questions for me to review and prepare material. During: Content review, lectures, practice, reviews, and assignment assistance After: Implement lessons and help during homework and exams.
