"I am originally from San Juan, Puerto Rico but grew up in South Florida before coming to Missouri for college. In college I studied architecture, but my education was in much more than math and art. Many people are surprised to hear the many different fields an architectural education encompasses, and in order to succeed in school I had to master skills from writing to history! I first started tutoring in high school, helping my younger classmates out with math and eventually with SAT/ACT prep. As a Washington University scholarship recipient, I assisted the Washington University Office of Undergraduate Admissions with reviewing ...

" I believe that as human beings, we are limitless in our capacity for development and owe it to ourselves to expand that potential to all areas of knowledge and experience. In short, I believe in the modern-day revival of the Renaissance man. When it comes to teaching and tutoring, I love that light bulb moment we get when something finally starts to make sense. I'm addicted to it. I love getting that feeling when I learn something new and I love spreading that feeling to others. I am encouraging and patient with my students and have a knack for making seemingly senseless problems feel relevant and practical." ...

" Originally from Cut Off, Louisiana, I grew up in a bilingual community. As I aged I had difficulties with my writing because my English education was French inflected. Therefore, I was tutored to improve my writing abilities. Having been through this very positive tutoring experience, I feel I am particularly attune to students in my tutoring sessions, since I experienced the often challenging or stressful, but ultimately fun and rewarding, tutoring process. After being tutored myself, I have tutored and taught high school and college students on both a professional and personal level in Louisiana, Mississippi, and DC." ...

" Since then, my passion for writing and editing has taken me to Chicago, where I graduated from Northwestern University's Medill School of Journalism in 2004; to Miami, where I worked as a metro reporter at The Miami Herald from 2004-2009; and most recently to St. Louis, where I am now a features reporter, editor and columnist at the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. I have always genuinely enjoyed helping others -- colleagues, students, friends and family -- fine-tune their writing, whether it's a newspaper story, personal essay, fiction manuscript or science report. At Varsity Tutors, I have worked with all levels of students, from ...

"I like to teach by asking questions so that the process is more interactive and students understand the material better. I currently work as a general chemistry laboratory mentor. My duties include office hours where students who just finished lab come to complete their lab reports and ask questions. I take my tutoring/mentoring job very seriously. Because there is a new lab every week, I attend the lab lecture that students attend, read through the lab, finish the pre-lab, lab report and additional exercises ahead of time, check the answers, and go to weekly mentor meetings to discuss potential questions students may have." ...

"I started tutoring during my undergraduate degree when I worked for the Modern Language Department at Oral Roberts University. The Foreign Language professors chose me to work and tutor students in their department when they saw how I could easily pinpoint the specific difficulties and shortcomings the students had in their subject area and subsequently devise a plan to develop understanding and comprehension in that area. Before moving to St. Louis from Champaign, IL to begin my graduate degree at Washington University, I taught English and Spanish at a private high school for one semester." ...
