"I also have an undergraduate degree in political science from GWU with a concentration in public policy. As you may be able to tell, I have always been interested in governmental institutions of all kinds, as well as the nongovernmental ones that surround them. Of late I have become interested in the United Nations and its specialized agencies, an area about which I have always been curious. Back in my undergraduate years, I authored my senior thesis on the United States' decision to rejoin the United Nations Scientific, Educational and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) in 2002 after an 18-year absence." ...

"I was born in eastern Pennsylvania, grew up near Columbus, Ohio, and lived in Albania for four years during high school. I visited Kenya and Bulgaria this past winter -- my 26th and 27th countries! I joined Varsity Tutors mainly to help students with entrance exams (SAT, SSAT, ISEE, PSAT). I personally improved my score by 250 points in just two sections with a little personal study. I believe strongly that anyone who learns the structure, nuances, focuses, and limits of the SAT can not only improve their score but earn perfect scores like I did on the creative reading and writing multiple-choice sections." ...

"Any level and topic of Mathematics is fun and exciting for me and I enjoy inspiring my students to feel the same way. I also have some experience with gifted children, or kids who are preparing for the Math olympiads or competitions. I am a Ph.D. candidate at Stony Brook University and my research focuses on Game Theory which is a topic at the heard of Economics/Mathematics. In the past decade (including this year) a significant number of Nobel Prize winners in Economics have been Game Theorists! Many of these Nobel Prize winners regularly visit Stony Brook every summer. In my spare time I like solving Math puzzles, drawing (either from real ...

"Teaching is not about telling children what the "right" answer is, it's about showing them how to find the answer. I love tutoring because I enjoy being the one who guides these young minds as they figure out the world of academics. I understand that students achieve more when they have a tutor who can motivate them. To do this, I believe in creating a personal connection with my students and showing them that I expect great things from them."

"Once my goal is reached, they would not need a tutor. I always encourage them to solve a problem on their own and give them as little help as possible. I try to show my students that with a bit of diligence and patience any problem could be solved. If my student is lacking the knowledge of the basics I always make sure to cover them quickly before teaching the more advanced subject."
