Hi my name is Meghna and I am currently attending medical school to get my DO degree. I enjoy tutoring and helping students in any way I can to make school easier. I am all for listening to the student and adjusting my tutoring techniques based on the individual student's needs.

I am deeply passionate about education and empowering students to reach their full potential. With a Bachelor's in Psychology and a Master's in Artificial Intelligence from Saint Louis University, I leverage my understanding of diverse learning styles to create engaging and personalized tutoring experiences. My tutoring journey began in high school as a teacher's assistant for third graders, where I focused on helping students overcome reading challenges and supported peers in subjects like computer programming and mathematics. My approach centers on fostering a supportive environment, encouraging curiosity, and connecting lessons to real-world applications, particularly in STEM fields. I have a focus in building and using certain AI tools. I've been vibe coding since the word was coined and I enjoy tackling new materials and tools!
I have a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration with a concentration in Accounting and minors in Mathematics and Spanish from Saint Louis University, and a Master of Accountancy degree from University of Missouri Columbia.I have had a wide variety of experiences as an educator over the past 9 years. I love tutoring in a one-on-one setting and helping students achieve their educational goals. In both undergraduate and graduate school, I worked as a tutor for the college athletic departments. I tutored numerous college athletes in various math and business subjects such as Accounting I and II, College Algebra, Pre-calculus and Calculus I and II. During college, I also worked as a Supplemental Instructor for Saint Louis Community College's math department and as a Graduate Teaching Assistant for University of Missouri Columbia's accounting department, teaching 2-3 supplemental lessons per week to College Algebra students and 2-3 classes of 30-40 students per week to Accounting I students, respectively. Subsequent to graduate school, I continued to work in the education field on a part-time basis, as an adjunct professor for Fontbonne University's Master in Accounting (MACC) and Master in Business Administration (MBA) Programs, where I was responsible for teaching various accounting courses; such as Intermediate Accounting I and II, Managerial Accounting, and Accounting Information Systems.On a full-time basis, I am a CPA and have been working in the corporate industry for the past 6 years 5 years at a global CPA firm and a little over 1 year in a corporate controllership function. Education is something that is extremely important to me and I love working with students and seeing them achieve their educational goals. I think that having great patience and truly caring about my tutees' educational development are two things that help me to be a great tutor. I am completely invested in the students that I teach and am willing to spend the time to ensure that my students completely understand the course material that needs to be learned. I am also very flexible with varied learning styles and can quickly adjust my teaching methods to meet each student's individual educational needs.In my spare time, I enjoy reading, traveling, collecting and listening to music, shopping and spending time with family and friends. I am also a pretty creative person and loved taking art classes in high school -- I recently moved into a new apartment and am very excited about decorating the new space!
I graduated from Saint Louis University with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Biology. Since then, I took the DAT exam and received a very high score, which allowed me to secure interviews from multiple Dental Schools across the country. I'm ready and willing to share the studying skills I acquired during my academic career to make my students' lives easier and achieve success. I was a biology and chemistry tutor at St. Louis Community College, where I led both group study sessions and 1-on-1 tutoring sessions. Every student on this campus had different learning styles and academic backgrounds. Therefore, I adapted my teaching styles to suit each student and make the sessions as efficient as possible. I also have experience tutoring children, including those with learning disabilities. I enjoy tutoring science the most. I love seeing the twinkle in the eye when my students have an "Aha" moment after understanding a new concept, which is which I love my job as a tutor. During my free time, I go to community services, watch soccer, and play guitar.
Hello! I am currently studying neuroscience at Saint Louis University in Missouri. Throughout my time in high school I have tutored students of several different age groups in numerous subjects. I have helped coach high schoolers on standardized tests such as the ACT and PSAT, middle schoolers in beginner Spanish, elementary school students in basic mathematics, and many more! When it comes to ACT and PSAT, I believe in simplicity and routine. I have helped coach several students to scores in the upper 30's. I also believe education should be fun, engaging, and stimulating which makes me a great fit for younger students! In my free time I have my nose shoved in a book or food shoved in my mouth.
Graduate of St. Louis University with a Degree in Chemical Biology and Pharmacology I know from experience how difficult chemistry and biology can be. These were not topics that just came naturally for me, and during college I had to spend a lot of time sitting down with these topics and trying to work them out in my head. Because of this, I have a lot of empathy to students struggling in their courses, and I enjoy working as a tutor who can help students who may feel overwhelmed. About lessons: Lessons with me are very flexible. I am willing to: - Create a guided lesson for you reviewing what you covered in class and break down difficult terminology in text-books and slideshows - Create student-specific study materials and study guides if you feel the resources available to you in class are not sufficient -Help guide you through your homework and practice exams If your goals for a course change over time, I will adapt to your needs as a student!
As a biological researcher, I love to keep learning about progress in my field - but more than anything, I enjoy communicating my research to others. Over the last 10 years, I've worked hard to develop my science communications skills, with a lot of my experience coming from tutoring sessions. I've tutored a variety of subjects ranging from basic study skills and organization to molecular biology, although my favorite subject to help with is writing. I'm hoping to one day continue my education by getting either a master's degree or a PhD in my field (neuroscience!), but for now, I'm content to continue improving my work experience.
A desire for justice is at the heart of everything I do. I am my strongest and best self when helping others. As an enthusiastic, passionate, and dependable teacher, I am consistently working to share and engage with the material I love.
The traditional path has never taken me where I needed to go, so as a writer and educator, I've learned to move forward without a mapguided by vision, not permission. I focus on where I'm going, not what's expected. When no clear model exists, I create one. "Advanced literacies" means having the freedom to think, decide, and act on your own terms. We all have the ability to build our own frameworks and write narratives that make full use of our strengths while pushing us to grow. This belief drives my work. It's how I challenge my students to rise, take ownership of their path, and reach the finish line with purpose.

My approach to tutoring is centered around patience, empathy, and adaptability, emphasizing the importance of understanding each student's learning style and tailoring my teaching methods accordingly. By doing so, I aim to foster a deeper understanding and appreciation of the subject matter. My passion for statistics extends beyond the classroom. I am particularly interested in how statistical concepts are communicated in everyday conversations and their application in real-world scenarios.

I am currently a nursing student at St. Louis University. I have worked as a tutor for 3 years in high school tutoring underclassman and grade school students in various subjects. I enjoy helping other's and making sure they understand what is being taught. I work hard and have good grades because I strive to succeed.I understand what it's like to struggle in school and not understand a subject matter right away. When I was younger, I had tutors in math and English. Over the years, I have picked up tips and tricks from prior tutors that may help other's like they helped me.
Education is the key to cultivating an open mind and unlocking a world of possibilities. As a tutor, I am passionate about helping students gain confidence and discover their unique potential. My favorite subjects to teach are creative writing and literature, as they allow students to explore their creativity, develop critical thinking skills, and connect with the power of storytelling. As a published author, I bring practical experience to these subjects and strive to inspire students to find their own voice. I studied at Saint Louis University, where I majored in theatre and minored in creative writing. My background has given me a strong foundation in creativity, communication, and adaptability skills I use to tailor each lesson to the individual learning style of my students. Whether guiding a student through the intricacies of a writing project or breaking down complex concepts in another subject, I aim to create a supportive and engaging environment that meets their unique needs. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy pursuing my own writing projects, exploring the arts, and engaging in activities that inspire creativity and curiosity. My approach to teaching combines patience, encouragement, and a commitment to helping students achieve their academic goals while fostering a lifelong love of learning.
Hi, I am Devin, a mechanical engineering junior at Saint Louis University! I have been a tutor over the course of the last 8 years. I have helped students ranging from K-12th grade. My teaching style is very adaptable. I like to create a space where students can ask questions and feel free to not understand. Asking questions in my opinion is the best way to learn. Whether a student needs visual representations of concepts or prefers to understand the underlying theory, I frame questions to match their learning style. My favorite way to engage students is by using things that happen in their everyday life to explain a specific topic or subject that they are struggling with. Intelligence is the torch of wisdom and what you know is something that can never be taken away from you. My goal is to help young minds grow and also gain the tools they need to gain better understandings on their own.
With my many years of teaching experience, I have learned that the impact I have on my students is immense. A teacher has the power to make or break a child's mind and soul My choice is always to create. I believe that the young mind has the right to be given an opportunity to acquire skills and knowledge they can use throughout their lives. Every student no matter where they come from, what values they hold, and what culture they practice, they should have the opportunity have their minds cultivated and opened. It is only in this regard that they will have the knowledge and ability to think critically, believe in themselves and become citizens that contributes to society's well being.
I am a life long learner, a certified teacher and a licensed Georgia attorney. I am most fulfiled when I successfully help others reach their goals!!
I began to enjoy math and physics during my sophomore year of high school when I encountered trigonometry and algebra 2. Up until this point in high school, I had skated by because I had not been challenged sufficiently enough to pique my interest. When I began to struggle with concepts in this class, I knew I had met a subject that demanded more rigor than a half hour breezing through notes. Since then, I have grown to love math and it's applied version, engineering, through rigorous education and job experience. My path took me to Saint Louis University where I graduated in 2017 with a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering and later to Washington University in Saint Louis, where I graduated with a Master of Science in Electrical Engineering. I've had many opportunities throughout this time to both learn and teach and I am passionate about both. I have been a teaching assistant, tutor, researcher, guest lecturer, researcher, and am currently a practicing engineer.Some things about me: I've resided in Saint Louis my whole life and am very familiar with the area. I love the outdoors and take runs around my neighborhood every chance I get. I enjoy kayaking, hiking, camping, and mountain climbing. I love to read and learn things that are outside of my immediate skill set. As a tutor, I look forward to encountering various learning styles and adapting my own teaching style to the needs of my students. My goal is to not only provide assistance in the material currently encountered by the students, but also to give them tools to succeed in their own in their future studies.
I am currently a doctoral student in Public and Social Policy at Saint Louis University and I am finishing my dissertation from Wichita. I hold a Masters Degree in Social Work and a Paralegal Certificate from San Francisco State University. Additionally, I hold a Bachelors degree in Political Science in Philosophy from Washington University in St. Louis. I went through a gifted curriculum prior to college and excelled in math and the sciences, ultimately being published nationally in the subject of neurosurgery. Part way through college, I decided to focus more of my energy on the social sciences which I have done ever since. When I was not attending school, I have worked as a Social Worker with vulnerable populations in many different positions. I plan to finish my Ph.D. in the upcoming year, and become a professor; in part because of the passion that I have for learning. I look forward to working with students of all ages, including adult learners and I hope to be able to work with you to achieve your learning goals.
I am currently in my fourth year of PhD study at Saint Louis University. I have been working in experimental psychology for the past 7 years and should finish with my PhD in experimental social psychology in 2015. Along the way I have picked up ample experience in Academic Writing, Research Methodology, and Statistics. As I am now an adjunct professor teaching Psychology classes, I feel I should offer my services to tutor students whenever possible. Though Psychology and Statistics are the topics that I am most familiar with teaching, I also enjoy tutoring Writing and Mathematics due to my background and education. My tutoring style is dynamic and I strive to adapt my methods to those which work best for the student. I tend to be hands on and extremely focused on helping my students learn and master the material. In my spare time, I play video games, watch anime, collect dolls and sculpt. I find art to be a very important stress reliever as a graduate student.
I knew I wanted a career in education when I witnessed my first “ah-ha! moment” when I was 18 and studying early childhood development. Almost ten years later, I am still fascinated with the multitude of methods of learning, and love to be a part of the acquisition of new knowledge and skills. I currently hold a bachelor's degree in early childhood education from St. Louis University, an elementary certificate from Northeastern Illinois University, and an ESL endorsement certificate from the University of Illinois. I have classroom and tutoring experience working with children ages 5-12, and I love teaching everything from beginning sounds to algebra to how to write an amazing personal narrative. My belief as an educator is to focus on the individual interests and talents of the students and then tailor the lessons so that they are the most appropriate for the learner. In my free time, I enjoy practicing yoga, exploring new restaurants, and reading great books.
Helping other individuals learn and them grow is always great to see. This is one of the main reasons I chose to be a tutor. Prior to becoming a tutor, I was a Student TA at Saint Louis University for Introduction to Law. Although I am still attending school, my passion to help others has only grown as I've been in college.I'm currently a double major working towards a B.S. in Healthcare Management and Legal Studies. These majors have helped me strengthened my reading and writing skills while allowing me to further my education in political science, business, and math classes. Because of this, I am comfortable in educating others in math subjects, political science, accounting, writing, economics, and public health. I believe every student has a different way of learning meaning that I have various ways of teaching others to provide the most effective strategy to help them learn.Outside of academics, I have a passion for sports, especially basketball, softball, and running, and am interested in photography.
I believe that understanding is more important than memorizing, so I strive to teach all of my students in terms of comprehension. I also believe in the importance of patience when working with students, as I feel that in order to master a concept, time must be taken to manipulate various ideals so that the student can successfully answer a related question at any degree of difficulty. I recently graduated at St. Louis University with a BS in both Health Management and Biology. There I was a biology teaching assistant, however I am continuing my education at Cornell University in the Fall to obtain my masters in health administration. I put all of my effort into teaching so I will not stop until you understand the material successfully. I also love meeting new people so I can't wait to meet you all!

Ciao! I'm San, and I am a medical student at the Sapienza University of Rome. During my undergraduate years, I completed my Bachelor's of Science in chemical biology and pharmacology and worked as a teaching assistant, research technician, resident advisor, and taekwondo instructor. Currently, I tutor elementary school to college level students in various subjects, including SAT, biology, chemistry, and physics. I personally obtained test scores of 1560 for SAT, 34 for ACT, 5's for AP calculus BC, chemistry, and physics 1, 2, and C mechanics. When I tutor, I recognize the varying levels of K-12 and college education around the world. With this in mind, I help students build a solid foundation on which they can progress their learning to the next level. Whether from algebra to trigonometry or biology to biochemistry, a solid footing is essential to be able to fully understand and internalize new topic matter. This solid foundation comes hand-in-hand with critical thinking skills, the ability to tackle problems outside of immediate comfort level, and the self-confidence to ask questions on new and unfamiliar concepts. For me, I find teaching a truly gratifying experience. I absolutely love seeing my students' "eureka" moments, when all the pieces fall into place and something just *clicks*. I don't think I will ever get tired of it!

Additionally, I have a strong background in premedical classes such as chemistry, biology and biochemistry. My teaching philosophy centers on creating a supportive and engaging learning environment where curiosity and critical thinking thrive.
I fully believe that my interest in the field of academic tutoring is born out of my endless pursuit of knowledge, as well as my strong interpersonal communication skills. With proper guidance, every student possesses the ability to grasp even the most complex of topics, and I have built my tutoring career on this premise. As an experienced tutor, I have continually enjoyed seeing my students achieve lofty goals under my instruction.I specialize in tutoring biology, chemistry, physics, and economics for high school students. In addition to this, I also tutor students in college level general chemistry, general biology, organic chemistry, introductory physics, economics and for the MCAT exam. I excelled in undergraduate coursework pertaining to these subjects and have prior experience in assisting pre-professional (pre-medical and pre-nursing) students looking to succeed in their required general science classes. My tutoring methodology is dependent on the establishment of a strong conceptual framework, and subsequent application of theory through practice problems (the best way to master any pure science). I frequently employ the use of problem sets and practice tests to monitor my students' progress.
