STEM Educator with Over 15 Years of College Teaching Experience

Cindy L.

Welcome! I was a material science professor in Taiwan and hold a PhD in Chemical Engineering and Material Science. I have accumulated 15 years of teaching experience at the college level and an additional 3 years dedicated to tutoring high school students, making me well-prepared to share my knowledge in mathematics, chemistry, and physics with young learners embarking on their academic journeys in these fields. Specializing in guiding high school students through the intricacies of Algebra I and II, as well as supporting college freshmen in their chemistry and physics endeavors, I am well-equipped to make these subjects more approachable and engaging for learners at these critical stages of their education.

My approach to tutoring is shaped around the idea that true comprehension emerges from interactive, personalized learning experiences. Geared towards high school students navigating the complexities of Algebra I and II, as well as college freshmen embarking on their chemistry or physics courses, my sessions are designed to demystify these subjects, transforming challenges into opportunities for growth and understanding. Recognizing the unique hurdles each student faces, I adapt my teaching strategies to best suit their individual learning styles and needs. Through a combination of practical examples, engaging dialogue, and supportive feedback, I aim to not only improve academic performance but also instill a sense of confidence and curiosity in the sciences. With a focus on encouraging critical thinking and problem-solving skills, my goal is to guide students towards achieving their academic goals while fostering a genuine interest in their studies.
