Jeffrey
Pre-Calculus Tutor • +29 Subjects
I am enrolled in the Mechanical Engineering PhD program at Rice University which will begin Fall 2020, and I am hoping to return to academia as a professor after earning my PhD. In the meantime, I am looking to share my passion for gaining knowledge, specifically in STEM, by educating the up and coming members of such a great field. I have experience tutoring both Calculus and Physics at Notre Dame, as well as experience as a Student Assistant for Differential Equations and Mechanics. I believe the key to learning is much deeper than learning to solve problems and that seeking knowledge is one of the best means for personal improvement.
Rhea
AP Statistics Tutor • +49 Subjects
I am a current student at the University of Chicago. I am working towards a Bachelor of Science in Biological Sciences, and I am on the pre-medical track. I am extremely passionate about tutoring, and I have several years of experience tutoring students in my high school's learning center in various subjects as well as tutoring private clients in Standardized Test preparation. Given that I graduated high school recently, I have taken several Standardized Tests and high school subjects myself, so I have a comprehensive understanding of not only how to tutor these subjects and exams, but also what it is like to take them. While I have a wide range of interests and am able to tutor various subjects, I am most passionate about tutoring in Standardized Test preparation (including ACT, SAT, SAT Subject Tests, and AP Exams), Biology, Chemistry, Math, and Spanish. I truly believe that students should have the opportunity to learn in the way that works best for them, and I love being able to help them succeed by creating a comfortable tutoring environment in which we can best assess their particular needs and use strategies specific to them. My passion for learning drives everything that I do, and tutoring is the platform that I use to try to spread that passion to others. In my free time, you can find me playing badminton, listening to music, or baking something (hopefully) delicious.

Tony
Calculus Tutor • +28 Subjects
I am a recent graduate of Yale University and incoming first year medical student at Columbia University. Originally from the DC area, I have always had a passion for science and medicine and pursued a degree in Biology while at Yale. During the 2008-2009 academic year, I tutored science, math, English, history, and Mandarin Chinese part-time with a DC-based tutoring company. At Yale, I worked as a freshman counselor to provide academic and career advice to incoming freshmen. I have taken both SAT and MCAT test prep classes and am familiar with both tests as well as the preparation necessary to score well. My personal career goals include attending medical school to pursue either immunology/infectious diseases or psych/neurology, teaching biology at the university level, and working in public/global health with either the CDC or the WHO.
Charles
AP Calculus AB Tutor • +25 Subjects
I am a junior Mechanical Engineering major at Yale, and I hope to become a Naval Aviator after college. I am also a varsity sailor, and enjoy playing music with friends when I can get some free time. I have been tutoring my fellow students throughout my entire academic career, and I would best describe my tutoring style as one that adapts to each students' needs. For example, I have always tried to frame questions in a different way so that the student can better understand the question. Some students need visual representations of numbers and systems to understand them, and others benefit more by understanding the concepts behind each formula. I prefer to tutor in math and physics, and especially with real world application problems. I hope to help students improve their standardized test scores and their understanding of the math and sciences so that they can achieve their academic goals! Hobbies: art, books, running, reading, music, writing

Samuel
AP Calculus AB Tutor • +29 Subjects
I am a freshman at Caltech majoring in Applied and Computational Mathematics. My favorite subject to tutor is math because I find it very rewarding to simplify complex topics to aid in understanding. I have lots of tutoring experience. In high school, I ran and taught an SAT prep class and was vice president of my school's NHS chapter where I ran our tutoring program, and I, myself, tutored. I also was a teaching assistant in the summer of 2020 for a class in discrete mathematics through a program called PACT (Program in Algorithmic and Combinatorial Thinking). I love learning and hope to make the process enjoyable for you!

Sharon
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +29 Subjects
I am a graduate of the University of Chicago, and I will be starting a graduate program at Columbia in August. I am about to complete a year of service with City Year, an education non-profit that places young adults into under-served schools. As a City Year member, I worked full-time in the classroom with middle-school students who were in approximately the 10th percentile for math (meaning they score lower than 90% of students). One-fourth of those students were able to grow around 15 percentile points by the end of the year! Hobbies: reading, cooking, gardening, music, art, nature, books, writing

Frequently Asked Questions
The most common challenges are balancing chemical equations, understanding stoichiometry (converting between moles, grams, and particles), and grasping equilibrium concepts. Many students also struggle with acid-base chemistry, thermodynamics, and visualizing molecular geometry and bonding at the atomic level. These topics require both procedural fluency (knowing how to solve problems) and conceptual understanding (knowing why the math works), which is why targeted tutoring makes a significant difference.
Rather than having students memorize formulas, tutors connect abstract concepts to tangible examples—like explaining how electron configurations relate to an element's position on the periodic table, or how Le Chatelier's Principle applies to real industrial processes. Tutors also use visualization techniques, molecular models, and practice with varied problem types to help students build mental frameworks. This approach strengthens both test performance and the scientific reasoning skills needed for higher-level chemistry and science courses.
Tutors help students understand the scientific method and how to interpret experimental results, not just follow procedures. They explain why certain techniques matter (like proper measurement, controlling variables, or using significant figures), help students troubleshoot when experiments don't go as expected, and teach how to analyze data and draw conclusions. This bridges the gap between classroom labs and the conceptual chemistry behind them, making lab reports and practical assessments less stressful.
Unit conversions require students to think in multiple ways simultaneously—tracking what they're converting, which conversion factors to use, and keeping track of significant figures. Many students memorize steps without understanding the logic, so they freeze when a problem looks slightly different. Expert tutors break down dimensional analysis into its core logic, show how to set up conversions systematically, and build confidence through practice with increasingly complex problems involving moles, molarity, gas laws, and stoichiometry.
Many students try random guessing or memorizing patterns, which doesn't work. Tutors teach a systematic method: identifying oxidation states (for redox reactions), balancing atoms by element, and checking charges. More importantly, tutors help students understand what balancing actually means—that atoms are conserved and charges must balance—so the process makes logical sense rather than feeling arbitrary. With guided practice and clear strategies, even students who initially find it confusing become proficient.
Equilibrium is abstract—students can't see molecules shifting back and forth—so tutors use multiple strategies: animated simulations, particle diagrams, graphs showing concentration changes over time, and real-world examples like a reversible reaction in a closed container. Tutors also connect equilibrium calculations (Kc, Kp, ICE tables) back to the underlying concept of dynamic balance. This combination of visualization, conceptual understanding, and problem-solving practice helps students move from confusion to genuine comprehension.
For students struggling with fundamentals, tutors focus on building strong foundations in atomic structure, bonding, and basic stoichiometry before moving to more complex topics. For students at grade level, tutors deepen conceptual understanding and tackle challenging topics like equilibrium and thermodynamics. For advanced students, tutors push toward AP Chemistry-level reasoning, synthesis across topics, and problem-solving strategies. In all cases, personalized instruction targets exactly where a student needs support rather than generic review.
Tutors identify which specific topics and problem types a student finds challenging, then build targeted practice with similar questions. They teach test-taking strategies specific to Chemistry—like how to approach multi-step stoichiometry problems, when to use approximations versus exact calculations, and how to manage time on exams with both conceptual and calculation-heavy questions. Regular practice with feedback and review of mistakes ensures students walk into exams confident and prepared.
