"This really motivated me to look into this field more and do what I can to help our children do better. I'm determined to see the education level of this country rise. As a dancer, I was often put in charge of younger kids and helped them learn routines, especially ones that were struggling. 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." ...

"In the fall of 2012 I moved to Fort Worth, where I am currently pursuing my PhD in American Literature, in addition to tutoring for Varsity.

"In this role I was not only a tutor for peer engineering students but also served as an academic mentor and adviser. Soon after, in the fall of 2009, I began working with Varsity Tutors in St. Louis. Through both these tutoring roles, I had the opportunity to help students ranging from middle school aged kids to graduate students in a wide array of subjects. Though the types of students I have tutored are varied, the common theme in my tutoring experience has been empowering the student to truly learn concepts through problem solving." ...

"My first opportunity to tutor other students came in high school when I was a volunteer for the school Math Club and I loved it immediately! Since then I have tutored students ranging from middle school to adults in subjects such as math, English, science, and test prep and the satisfaction gained from seeing students progress from confusion to understanding never gets old. In my free time, I like to think of myself as an explorer who loves to travel, hike, camp, or simply wander around an unexplored neighborhood. I also enjoy playing basketball, swimming, and cooking (and eating of course!).." ...

"In high school, I struggled with math and science classes and believed that I would never be good at them. After a break of several years, I'm currently in the middle of an undergraduate in Applied Mathematics. I was fortunate enough to have a paradigm shift in the way I perceived myself and the world around me and love getting to share the good news with others: people who prefer reading and making music and art can also do great in their other classes, especially when the math and science is presented the right way. In my free time I like to spin, knit, sew and translate Latin and Old English." ...

"I went to undergrad at the University of Michigan and graduate school at George Washington in Washington, D.C.; and, along the way I also visited close to 50 different countries across 5 continents. Despite my addiction to travel, the women in my family convinced me to move back home, and I'm happy to be back in Dallas and ready to be at your service! At times I wonder if I'm also addicted to standardized tests because I feel like I'm always taking a test for something and have just given up on the idea that one day I won't have to take more tests. In addition to this experience, I have spent many hours working on applications for various academic, ...
