...challenges to students. One of my primary goals is to meet students where they are, understand their specific needs, and develop an individualized plan that challenges them and helps them succeed. To this end, I do not follow a specific formula during sessions with my students. Instead, I work with my students to build a plan that meets their goals and helps them achieve success. I look forward to helping you succeed in your studies!

...because I enjoy it. Education has opened up so many doors for me, and this is largely because I was fortunate to have some amazing teachers growing up who made learning fun (or at the very least not miserable). My goal is to do the same for each one of the students who I work with, and find ways to make even the most abstract concepts or complex math problems "click" in a student's mind.

...for opportunities to learn new things. Additionally, in my spare time I enjoy reading, board games, and rock climbing. I am excited to work as a tutor once again in order to give students a chance to learn one-on-one to get a deeper and more clear understanding of their study material. By having the ability to clear up confusion with material every week via a tutor, the student will find it easier in the future...

My teaching philosophy begins with understanding a student's goals and helping them achieve success both inside...

...I am able to help students develop these areas in their own education. My tutoring methods include a hands-on approach where students not only study new material but also get opportunities to practice what they have learned to further develop those skills through activities and exercises that demonstrate usage in different situations. I currently work in the evenings a few nights each week, but my daytime availability during the week and on weekends is relatively...

I am currently studying mechanical engineering, computer science, and German at Johns Hopkins University, and I am here to tutor beginning German. I would like to help my students understand the work that they are doing and get a lot of practice using the language. I can help with speaking, listening, and writing in German. I am on the executive board of the JHU German Club, where I have had experience mentoring my peers.

Anybody can learn something if they put their mind to it, and have somebody else helping them learn how to put their mind to it.... Get to know them, make sure they are comfortable with me and will ask me questions, and then see what their main concerns are.... Let...

...I like to cover subjects from a variety of different perspectives to ensure the student has complete understanding of the material. I believe in asking questions that lead a student towards the right way of thinking, rather than strict memorization. Because of my abilities in both STEM subjects and communication, I believe that gives me a broad perspective that can be useful in bridging diverse subjects. My personal interests outside academic subjects include watching and...

...geometry, statistics, and pre-Calculus. My favorite subjects to tutor are algebra I and algebra II. I thoroughly enjoyed these topics while in school and algebra is the foundation of high level mathematics. If I am able to help someone understand algebra or pre-algebra, they will be on the right path to academic success in upper levels of mathematics. My teaching philosophy is that anyone can learn giving the right tools and support. Regardless of their...

...how to face the endless standardized tests and leave the battle in victory, not resignation. I've been speaking French since I was old enough to read and I have a Russian heritage that can help out with colloquialisms and grammar. Languages and linguistics are fascinating to me and I don't get to speak mine enough, so please speak them with me! My physics background, as well as my years of teaching, means I know a...

...Similarly, I also enjoy physics because this subject is like a puzzle, and I enjoy breaking a problem down into its components. I tutor math up to Calculus 3 and Physics from High School Physics 1 and AP Physics to College level physics. As a current college student, I understand what works for students and what doesn't work; my teaching philosophy is simple and systematic. I break the problem down into small steps that are...

Subjects I tutor include elementary and middle school science; elementary through high school math (through algebra, trigonometry, and geometry); elementary through high school history and social studies; and elementary through high school English. I enjoy tutoring all subjects, but I have a particular affinity for English, history, and social studies. I enjoy reading and writing, especially essay, memoir, poetry, news, and current events. Regarding my education, I earned my B.A. from...

...fact that, oftentimes, students already possess the foundational knowledge to arrive at correct conclusions--they simply lack the confidence and/or the roadmaps to get there. That's where I come in. After finishing my B.S. in Mechanical Engineering last May, I moved back to the Raleigh-Durham area to continue my education at Duke University for an M.S. in Mechanical Engineering. As aforementioned, much of my tutoring experience has been in STEM fields (calculus, physics, chemistry, etc.)--but as...

I have worked with elementary, middle school,...
