About Justin


Bio

I am a firm believer in individualized learning styles, and the underlying premise that no subject is inherently difficult, so long as it is presented in a digestible way. This means recognizing and offering multiple approaches to problem-solving. I am deeply passionate about the process of learning, and find it extremely personally fulfilling to help others achieve confidence and awareness of their own academic potential.

I am a firm believer in individualized learning styles, and the underlying premise that no subject is inherently difficult, so long as it is presented in a digestible way. This means recognizing and offering multiple approaches to problem-solving. I am deeply passionate about the process of learning, and find it extremely personally fulfilling to help others achieve confidence and awareness of their own academic potential.

My name is Justin, and I hold a degree in chemistry, with minors in biochemistry, and biology. The last two years of my undergraduate career, I worked as a laboratory research assistant, and also as a Supplemental Instruction Facilitator. Supplemental Instruction (SI) is an internationally recognized academic support program that offers regularly scheduled study for difficult core courses. Sessions were targeted towards improving student grades and understanding, while increasing enrollment, and reducing attrition.

As a facilitator, I instructed up to forty students, maintained an academic grade book, and was required to uphold the same teaching protocol as faculty. I attended lectures with the students to take notes, model good student behavior, and prepare tailored curricula for my own classroom sessions. In addition, I identified and implemented various learning styles, created lesson plans, worksheets, and lectures, and developed collaborative group activities. I have been a facilitator for General Chemistry I, General Chemistry II, and Organic Chemistry I.

I believe in an interactive approach that relies on asking the appropriate questions to lead the student to the answer gradually, by first connecting concepts, and then relying on the student to explain a stepwise solution to me. I have applied this approach to effectively instruct multiple high school and college students across a variety of academic disciplines.

BEST TUTOR

I can’t say enough about how much Justin has helped me in my college Chem class as well as the lab. He is the best tutor I’ve had for any class in my 20 years of education. He is so clear, incredibly patient, and very thorough and organized. He makes a week of confusion clear in just one session. Not only that, but he is so thorough in the way he teaches, writing every detail, concept and calculation out so I’m able to look back afterwards and review the material we discuss. I could not recommend him more highly!!

Best tutor I've had!

Justin is extremely knowledgeable in the sciences and is very patient! He can clearly explain concepts without making you feel less intelligent, and can answer any question you have on the spot. Justin is also very reliable and has been such a help in my chemistry class. Thank you, Justin!

Incredibly knowledgeable and patient

My freshman son has always been reluctant to work with tutors. After working with Justin for just a couple of sessions for both Biology and Geometry, he now values his time with Justin. He has seen the work pay off in quiz/test scores. Justin is calm, patient and supportive in his teaching method. He makes sure my son really understands the material and is always available to answer questions or schedule last minute sessions. A fantastic tutor!

Brilliant tutor

I’ve been working with Justin on different material for about a year, and I can’t stress how incredible he is at teaching. I took an incomplete in a class due to COVID and had to make up a semesters worth of exams in a two week time frame. We worked for a month over the summer and covered three units as well as a final which is an insane amount of material to cram into that time, especially with the material being chemistry and organic chemistry. With his help, I got a B in a class I was certain I was going to fail and have to retake. Best best best case scenario I thought I could get a C. I would not have pulled through without him and I could not be more thankful for his help. I’d recommend him to anyone looking for an absolutely amazing, kind, patient, well organized, detailed, and smart tutor.

One of the best tutors I’ve used

After the first half of my Orgo 1 semester i hadn’t learned anything during lecture. I went to 1 session with Justin and learned more in those 2 hours than the 9 weeks I have been going to class.

Great and Knowledgable Tutor!

Justin was able to help me prepare for my exam by helping me with my practice exams and made sure I understood the core concepts. He was able to explain the topics in a much easier way compared to how my professor taught me and really makes sure you understand everything! He is very knowledgeable and a great teacher! Highly recommend!

Quick to respond

I sent him an email and was quick to respond. Did a zoom meeting that same night with our son because test was the next day. He received a 92. Our son liked him a lot. Will continue to tutor our son.

It was good.

It was good. I don't see why reviews need to eb 160 characters or longer. Brevity is the soul of wit. No reason at all to make it have a minimum character count.

Always great

Justin is always extremely flexible and accommodating. He goes the extra length and we greatly appreciate all he does to help out!
