Experience
I spent three out of my four years at Oberlin as a tutor for students in introductory level chemistry classes. Most of these students were first-years, so they were fresh out of high school. There was a great variation in the amount of experience these students had had with math and science. Some of them had taken AP calculus and AP chemistry in high school, so I acted more as a guide for their studying than a teacher. Some of them, on the other hand, hadn't taken a math or science class since freshman or sophomore year of high school, so I had to explain a lot of the concepts of chemistry, re-teach them some algebra, and even explain the basics of calculus. I really enjoyed my experience tutoring at Oberlin and want to continue. I am interested in pursuing a career in secondary science education, but what I really like about tutoring is the one-on-one time I get to have with a student. I like getting to know the person I am helping and feel that I can make a big difference if I work with students individually.
