Kelsey S.  

Philadelphia, PA
$50.00/hr
★★★★★
(6 Reviews)

About: My name is Kelsey and I have five years of teaching experience. I use proven educational best practices to help students achieve success and build confidence in their abilities. I have my BS in Secondary Education and I possess a Pennsylvania Teaching Certificate. My teaching experience includes 5th-7th grade Math, Math support, and Science, 7th and 8th grade Social Studies and English, and GED preparation classes. In addition to classroom teaching, I have three years of tutoring experience ranging from 4th-10th grade in Math, Science, and English Language Arts. I enjoy being a tutor because I love helping students set, work toward, and achieve their academic goals. Additionally, I love seeing students gain confidence in their academic skills and abilities. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy spending time with my son and being outdoors with my family! I currently work with families located in and around Northeast, Lower Northeast, and North Philadelphia.

Rui W.   

Wilmington, DE

(6 Reviews)

 

About: I am currently studying and working in the Brain and Mind Institution at Weill Cornell Medical School. Before, I was a Ph.D. student at Loyola University Chicago, Major in Chemistry and Biochemistry, where I began my work in medical research. At the same time, I was a TA for lecture courses in general chemistry and biochemistry, and for a chemistry lab course for nursing students. During summer I also taught courses in general chemistry and an organic chemistry. I believe that text books are not the ideal or most effective way for students to acquire new knowledge, but that knowledge is best transferred from one person to another. I wholeheartedly believe that personal interactions are one of the most important factors for successful education. I have an easy-going and approachable personality, but at the same time I am very responsible. I easily comprehend when students share with me what is difficult for them to learn and what they struggle with, and I share with them my own learning strategies and experiences. I aim to make interactions with my students as easy, comfortable and productive as possible.
