Inrich
French Tutor • +11 Subjects
As a highly motivated, goal and success oriented tutor, I have a proven track record of providing excellent tools for everyone around me to overcome the challenges that they encounter when facing difficult situations. I will graduate from Baruch college with a bachelor's in Industrial and Organizational Psychology and have always received A's in all my mathematic courses. I am always positive and enthusiastic, and I love to share that with everyone. I have been a tutor for about 6 years now, in French and Mathematics. I have helped my students to build the necessary skills that they need to succeed. I show my students how to study effectively. For instance, Mathew who is a former student of mine did not like algebra at all. I showed him how easy it is with 3 effective rules to master in algebra. Read-Follow-Do. Now he is taking calculus and is doing well. My previous experience as a tutor and my daily life as a student has enabled me to develop not only specific skills to be the best tutor, but also to be patient and understanding. This is because I have lived the frustration of not understanding a subject myself. This pushes me to read and go find the help that I need. Living this myself makes me devoted and goal oriented, and motivates me to help my students even more. I want to get my PhD in I.O. in the future and develop more and better skills to be the best tutor that I can ever be.

Ann Marie
6th Grade AP Language Composition Tutor • +27 Subjects
My decision to pursue a teaching career is because I have a strong desire to make a difference in the lives of my students. I see teaching as the best way to do this. I also have a strong love for learning and as an educator, having this quality is essential if one is to instill a love for learning in his/her students. I am helping students reach their fullest potential. I am laying the foundation for lifelong learning and achievement and to me that is the greatest job of all.I have taught a wide variety of students in both early childhood and elementary grades in both public and private settings. I have also helped colleagues prepare for different standardized exams such as the GRE, PRAXIS and the New York State teacher examination. My experiences have taught me a lot about what are best practices and how best to implement these best practices. They have taught me the value of being patient and the importance of differentiated instruction.I have my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Pace University. I also have a Masters in Science in Childhood Education (1-6). In addition, I have a 15-Credit Post Masters in Early Childhood Education (Birth-2nd Grade). I am able to tutor reading (comprehension, phonics); writing (style, grammar); math (number operations, measurement, geometry, problem solving, and number sense); science (biology, health, physiology, astronomy; weather, earth science); and social studies (civic engagement, geography and history).My favorite subjects to tutor are reading, writing and math. As an educator I take the time to get to know my students and what really interests them. I believe this is essential to learning how to best teach the students I am teaching or tutoring. It is important to help make the content relatable and accessible. This means getting to know my students and their learning styles.Outside of academia I enjoy doing yoga, reading, traveling and spending time with family and friends.

Hi, I'm Adam. I'm 29 years old, and have recently moved back to the US from several years of living in Australia. I've had lots of experience doing many things over the years. I've always had a passion for digging into different skills and learning whatever I can get my hands on. I've also always had a knack for taking whatever I've learned and conveying it to new learners easily. I love the experience and process that comes with learning new things, and love to facilitate the excitement of learning & growth in others however I can.Some more personal details and credentials:have a major in Community Health with a focus on Health Education from Texas A&M University, as well as a Minor in Spanish Language.

I've worked with groups from ages 4 to 16 years old of all genders and backgrounds, and have experience with special needs and varied learning abilities as well. My last outdoor youth guiding position focused on middle school to high school aged expeditions, team building, rappel/abseil guiding, and overnight survival skills expeditions.I have a long background in emergency and wilderness medicine, and pursuing emergency services and search and rescue focuses is my main goal. I have completed the nationally registered EMT and Wilderness EMT courses, and wish to pursue either a Paramedics or Nursing degree next.I have travelled extensively throughout my life, especially during my twenties, and get extreme enjoyment in absorbing whatever I can about the cultures and languages belonging to wherever I find myself.During my three years in Australia I found myself around a lot of Brazilian friends, so I picked up a decent amount of Portuguese, and am currently starting to teach myself Arabic as well.I adore the outdoors and time spent adventuring in nature. Hiking, bushwhacking, swimming, surfing, climbing, SCUBA diving, wakeboarding, snow skiing, rappelling, ropes courses, cliff jumping, and the list goes on. If it involves being outside and something extreme, challenges me, and gets my heart rate going, I'm there.I have also been around martial arts for most of my life.

During my years at school I captained my 5A high school drum line, played with strings and full wind orchestras, percussion ensembles, musicals, and solo performances at the Texas state level. Beyond that, I continued to play and teach myself, write and play live performances with various musicians, and have since been in a band for a few years with heavy doses of large live performances, studio recording time, and several tracks on Spotify.As you can see, I've gotten my hands on quite a few things over the years.

I am a graduate of Marquette University holding my bachelor of science degree in Biomedical Engineering and master of arts in philosophy. I have 9 years of experience tutoring and teaching students ages ranging from ages 6-20. My main area of expertise is computer science based subjects, but I have worked with students on every subject.When it comes to tutoring, I believe that each student learns best according to their own needs. Therefore, I work with the student to determine what works well and what doesn't beginning with what the student already knows and building from there.
Kelsey
Algebra Tutor • +28 Subjects
I am a current undergraduate student pursuing my Bachelor of Science degree in Biochemistry and Nutrition. Additionally, I have completed Biology and Chemistry at both the Ordinary and Advanced Level as well as Spanish at the Ordinary level and so I mainly tutor Biology, Spanish and Chemistry. During my high school years, I often tutored and assisted my peers and younger sibling with whatever subjects they needed help with. Since I am fairly young, I believe that my tutoring style is more relatable to students younger or the same age as me. Personally, I love Biology and every time I learn something, I become more and more fascinated with how amazing nature is designed. I spend my downtime reading, playing the steelpan and cuddling with my dog.

Frequently Asked Questions
Scientific history requires students to understand both the scientific concepts and the historical context in which discoveries occurred—a dual demand that can feel overwhelming. Many students struggle with connecting abstract scientific principles to their real-world applications and historical significance, or they focus so heavily on memorizing dates and names that they miss the bigger narrative of how scientific thought evolved.
Additionally, scientific history often involves understanding outdated or incorrect theories that were later disproven, which can confuse students about what's actually true. Personalized tutoring helps students build a coherent timeline of scientific progress, understand why scientists believed what they did at particular moments in history, and develop critical thinking about how knowledge changes over time.
Great scientific history tutors bridge two disciplines by combining strong subject knowledge in both science and history. They help students see the connections between major scientific breakthroughs and their historical contexts—understanding not just what was discovered, but why it mattered and how it changed society.
The best tutors also recognize that scientific history isn't just about famous names and dates. They guide students to analyze primary sources, understand the scientific method as it evolved, and explore how cultural, religious, and economic factors influenced scientific progress. This approach transforms scientific history from a list of facts into a compelling narrative of human inquiry.
In a classroom, scientific history instruction often follows a fixed pace and curriculum sequence that works for most students but may not address individual gaps or learning styles. Personalized tutoring allows a tutor to identify exactly where a student struggles—whether it's understanding the scientific concepts, remembering the chronological order, or connecting cause and effect between historical events and discoveries.
Tutors can slow down on complex topics like the Scientific Revolution or the history of evolutionary theory, use specific examples relevant to a student's interests, and tailor practice to reinforce weak areas. They can also help students develop stronger note-taking strategies, create timelines, and practice analyzing primary sources—skills that significantly improve both understanding and retention in this subject.
Scientific history is taught differently at various grade levels—elementary students might focus on famous scientists and simple discoveries, middle school students explore the development of major scientific fields, and high school students analyze how scientific breakthroughs shaped civilization and society. Tutors work with your school's specific curriculum standards to ensure students master required content while also building deeper understanding.
Whether your student is preparing for state assessments, AP or honors courses, or just strengthening their grasp of the material, tutors can align instruction with what's being taught in class. They can preview upcoming units, reinforce concepts from recent lessons, or help students catch up on material they've missed—all customized to your school's pace and expectations.
Students typically see improvement in several key areas: stronger comprehension of major scientific periods and paradigm shifts, better ability to connect scientific concepts with their historical significance, and more confident essay writing and analysis on scientific history topics. Many students also develop improved study skills like creating effective timelines, analyzing primary sources, and synthesizing information from multiple perspectives.
Beyond grades, students often gain a deeper appreciation for how science and society shape each other. They become better at critical thinking—understanding that scientific "truth" evolves and that historical context matters when evaluating ideas. These skills extend beyond scientific history to improve overall performance in history and science classes.
Tutors support students across the full range of scientific history topics, including the Scientific Revolution and the shift from medieval to modern scientific thinking, the development of major fields like biology, chemistry, physics, and medicine, the history of evolutionary theory, breakthroughs in technology and their societal impacts, and the role of women and diverse cultures in scientific progress.
They also help with analysis of primary sources like Newton's Principia or Darwin's letters, understanding how scientific methods developed over time, exploring ethical questions in scientific history, and examining how social and economic factors influenced scientific research and acceptance. Whatever specific era or concept your student is studying, a tutor can provide targeted support.
Yes, tutors are experienced in helping students prepare for unit tests, state assessments, AP exams, and other scientific history evaluations. They can help students identify high-priority content, practice with past exam questions and formats, develop strategies for essay and short-answer responses, and build confidence through targeted review.
Rather than cramming facts the night before, effective test preparation involves spaced review over time, which helps knowledge stick in memory longer. Tutors create study plans that reinforce connections between scientific discoveries and their historical context, helping students answer application and analysis questions more successfully—not just recall questions.
