Hi everyone! I'm a recent grad from the University of Pennsylvania, studying marketing/operations at the Wharton School of Business. I've been involved with tutoring since middle school, and it was actually my first job in 10th grade! I have tutored through corporations such as Kumon/ICC and also done a variety of private tutoring across all grade levels and subjects. I really enjoy helping people to understand and appreciate knowledge! Besides the more technical side, I'm a person who enjoys exploring in all aspects of life from backpacking to museums: understanding curiosities is my passion!

Hello!My name is Natalie, I am a freshman at the University of Southern California and I'd love to be your tutor! I currently teach SAT Prep through CollegeSpring, a local nonprofit which assists historically underserved high schools in preparing students for the college admission process. Through this position I have realized how rewarding it is to share my passion for learning with others, and I hope to continue doing so by working through VarsityTutors.

After practicing environmental law for 27 years, I decided to change careers. I chose teaching because that is something that has always interested me, and chose social studies because my BA is in history and history has been a lifelong passion. I have a background in law, government and public policy as well, having been a practicing environmental lawyer and having earned a Master of Public Administration degree. As a Scout leader for 25 years, I was very much involved in teaching at all education levels, all the way up to graduate school.Raising my own four children also involved a great deal of teaching. As a lawyer, I enjoyed most working with younger lawyers and helping them become better researchers and writers, and with high school and undergraduate students considering a law-related career. The common thread in these experiences is working with young people one-on-one or in small groups. For these reasons, I believe tutoring plays to my strengths as a teacher. When I was in the classroom, my assessments always used actual AP questions. My students performed very well on their final exams, which were full-length AP tests using questions from past exams, averaging. In world history, I wrote my own test questions, since test banks accompanying the text involved little more than memorization. I try to inject more rigor into my lessons and assessments.I never go into a professional activity with a client without a great deal of preparation. In my economics and government classes, I prepared detailed study guides both to prepare myself and to assist students. I believe my students' performance in AP classes was directly related to these guides. As a tutor, in my first meeting with a student, I will assess the nature of their concerns with the subject. I will review with them the syllabus and their recent exams and assignments to identify the key problems. Problems might include study habits, difficulty with key concepts, and absorbing the sheer volume of material, among other things. Having identified the problems, I will tailor tutoring sessions to the individual student's needs. For example, lessons may concentrate on practice with difficult concepts Many students are visual or kinetic learners, so the use of graphs in economics is especially useful to get to the solution, and to build on basic concepts, even when answering multiple choice questions. In this regard, my study guides will provide appropriate material for helping students. I view these guides as living documents and constantly evaluate and revise them to meet student needs..As a tutor of college students, I will draw on my own experience working with summer interns as well as my education and professional experience. Law, public administration, government, and economics, in addition to US and world history are some of the subjects in my professional repertoire.Most important, because I have taught or practiced in a number of subjects before, I have a wealth of material and information that I can use in my tutoring sessions. For subjects I have not yet taught, I look for useful material on line. In general, I do not view tutoring as something that happens only during the hour I spend with a student. I maintain records on each student's needs and progress, and plan ahead for each meeting so as to tailor lessons to individual needs. I prepare session notes following each meeting with a student to help prepare future lessons and to assess my own performance.

Hello! My name is Ereni. I am a mother and a teacher who is passionate about education and life in general. I have great knowledge and experience with children of various ages with over 15 years of experience teaching Kindergarten - Grade 5. I am very flexible, have a calm demeanor, and a warm personality.I hold a bachelor of Arts in English language and Literature, and a Masters' Degree in Multicultural Education. I obtained my P3 certificate, ESL, and Bilingual certificates from NJCU. Being a teacher allows me to meet the diverse needs and challenges my students could sometimes experience. I concentrate on providing lessons and hands-on activities that push my students to a higher level of knowledge and understanding.I also set clear expectations for learning and make sure students understand the directions, procedures, and explanations of the content. I'm looking forward to working with your child.

I am an educator passionate about helping students understand not only complex problems in school, but to see how what he or she is learning makes a difference in their world. I try my best to make learning engaging and memorable, and with a dose of patient and perseverance, am confident you as a student will step away with a better grasp of what you are trying to overcome.

I love when the information clicks with a student and they finally understand a concept.

I discovered the joy of teaching and helping others when I was in school and working with classmates on the same material. I've found that the material is only part of the learning process. Attending the same classes allowed me to understand the classroom context and help classmates navigate confusing lessons as well as homework and exams. I have successfully taken on this role from elementary to graduate school. Most of the time I did not have an official position as a tutor, but I greatly enjoyed being in an optimal position to set up others for success.I most enjoy math, probability, and statistics because they give you tools that allow you to solve technical problems all by yourself. For example, I build a tool in Excel to give me the odds that I would get a desired card from a card pool in the online card game called Hearthstone. I graduated Michigan State with a bachelor's in statistics and a Master's in Business Analytics to learn how to apply statistics to real world problems.I have had almost all A's throughout my entire academic career. I attribute my success to more than natural ability. I've found that being willing to ask questions to classmates and teachers, putting more time and effort into subjects and lessons that are most challenging, treating each class/teacher as a separate challenge, and breaking down processes are all incredibly important. I think of a new class as a separate game that needs to be understood and respected. Having this flexibility will enable you to take the key steps that will optimize your performance.When I consider artistic performance such as my piano playing and dancing, I see how breaking it down is helpful in a similar way. I have to spend most of the time working on the hard parts and then integrating them into the rest of the piece. In school, the performance could be solving an algebraic equation. There could be an element like factoring that is hard and open ended. Putting the most time and effort into factoring and then successfully working through the whole problem is just like perfect practice leading to a flawless performance.

As a current medical student with years of high-level coursework in various subjects under my belt, I have learned to adapt and change my learning style multiple times throughout high school, college, and medical school. As a soon-to-be doctor, one of the most important things I can do with my patients is to listen to them, their needs, and where they are coming from. This ability to listen is crucial also for tutoring and understanding a child's academic needs. In working with patients, I also regularly break down tough scientific concepts into every-day language that they can relate to. This is another very important skill to have when working with students who may be struggling to understand difficult technical concepts. I am confident that my years of academic experience will serve well in helping your child succeed in any subject area they may need help in.

I had great math and science teachers who really made a world of difference when it came by my appreciation for and understanding of the subjects. I also realize how frustrating it can be when we aren't getting the help we need and don't exactly understand the material presented to us. For that reason, I would love to help increase your knowledge and confidence in these subjects! I have lots of experience tutoring in AP chemistry and algebra, in particular, and I am more than willing to work on finding a style that works for your learning.

As a Highly Qualified, Arizona State Certified Teacher, I am knowledgeable in the current expectations of students. I have also received a wide variety of training on the common core standards, which is being implemented statewide. With my wide variety of skills and experience, I can be a great asset to help students to succeed.I received my Bachelors from Northern Arizona University and completed Montessori training through CMTE/NY. After teaching English Language Development in Mesa Public Schools, I am well equipped with knowledge of the current expectations for English Language Learners. I have been supporting students through tutoring for over seven years and look forward to helping your child succeed in their academic career.
