Vanderbilt Graduate available to tutor in high school math, science, and the SAT/ACT
Methodology
I am a recent Vanderbilt University graduate with a B.E. in Chemical Engineering. I have excelled in math, science, and SAT/ACT subjects and have tutored high school, middle school, and elementary students in AP Chemistry, mathematics, and English courses. I am a patient, personable tutor who strives to help a student fully understand a concept. I personalize all of my tutoring sessions to my student and encourage him/her in learning and improving knowledge. Thank you for reading this.
Background
During high school, I tutored high school students in AP Chemistry, English, and algebra/geometry for 1.5 years. During college, I worked with elementary and middle school students over one year to aid their understanding of math and science. For the past 6 years, I have tutored over 50 people online to improve scores by around 150 points on the SAT Critical Reading section through my guide, "How I got an 800 on the SAT Critical Reading (A Story and Guide)", which has over 300,000 views on College Confidential.
Rates
Details
SAT/ACT Tutoring may require a higher hourly rate, while most high school subjects and below should be at my normal rate. Depending on distance to travel for tutoring, extra fees may be required. Please contact me for further clarification.
