Carefully selected, highly-credentialed ACT Writing tutors in Arlington, TX
"I had a knack for helping kids remember their moves through catchphrases and alternate explanations of how the movement was supposed to work. I carried that over to my tutoring, where I would aid friends by coming up with mnemonic devices and extended metaphors that allowed them to understand the concepts better. Also, the opportunity to work with students one-on-one really gave me insight into their learning style, and I could adapt my teaching to whatever suited them best. Though I majored in the social sciences, math has always been a fun hobby of mine." ...

"I can help with your learning process because I've been going through it, too, for the last 10+ years. I know what high school and college material looks like. My teaching style is centered entirely on you: wherever you want to focus our efforts is where we'll work. Tutoring with me is very conversational and I’m in the habit of asking, no matter the problem, what you know already."

" The solution I found was to look into tutoring other students and that is how I found Varsity Tutors.
My love of learning and education was instilled at a young age because both of my parents are teachers, my dad teaches Geology and my mom teaches 3rd grade. Education has always been a priority for me, and I love making ordinary, everyday events into creative learning opportunities. My educational background lies mostly within the sciences and emphasized Chemistry and Biology."

" We in the western world tend to focus on the science and discipline without incorporating the language and art. As an active musician and artist, I communicate the value in fine arts relationships to mathematics. That part doesn't make the money, but it does make math a more pleasant environment for the folks who think they aren't math people.
Everyone is math people; they just don't realize it."

"I feel it's my duty to pass on what I've learned throughout my high school and college experiences. I'm well-versed writing personal essays, taking admissions tests, critically analyzing literature, and everything in between. Now, these can be very daunting tasks for some students - but that doesn't have to be the case!
Maybe your student isn't quite at that college preparation stage. Is it British Realism that's giving your student more problems than a Rubik's Cube? I can help them to understand where each poetic piece goes."

" I have taken every type of class imaginable because I never could decide what subject I loved more. That's why it took me so long to decide on a major! In all my difficult classes where teacher instruction has fallen short, I've just taught the material to myself from the text. I love problem-solving and figuring out complex theories and ideas. I am a people pleaser, a quick learner, and a hard worker."

" I worked for The University of Chicago Center for Urban School Improvement – an initiative of the university to bolster education in some of the city’s lowest achieving schools. During the school day I served as a Literacy Tutor for students in Kindergarten through 3rd grade. I also provided homework help and math and literacy tutoring for K-8 students in an after-school program. At the conclusion of the school year, I was part of a team of two tutors whose students demonstrated the most improvement of all the students in the program, and I was selected to attend the Leadership Training Seminar by the Illinois Commission on Volunteerism ...

"Mark’s Institute.
However, the years of experience and certificates do not truly define my tutoring experience. The most important aspect of tutoring is the relationship between student and teacher, which I believe should be built on sincerity and respect. Over the years, my students have taught me as much as I’ve taught them."

"Although I have consistently helped others throughout the learning process, I too have been on the other side of the tutoring spectrum. I have been very blessed in having influential people in my life that have helped me throughout my own educational experiences. Because of this, I realize the impact and value one-on-one teaching can have in education. Sometimes it takes an outsider's perspective and patience to help information really sink in, and this is what I am now privileged to offer others."
