...several years of experience working with students from pre-K to high school in the areas of Reading, Writing and Language Arts, as well as Math and ACT/SAT preparation. I have worked with students of varying abilities, including those with learning difficulties and gifted students. I grew up in Chicago, but was born in Ukraine, so I speak Russian fluently. I also speak Spanish--I learned it in school and still use it to this day with...

...I tutor a broad range of subjects, including math (through calculus level), sciences (general life sciences, chemistry (general, organic, physical), biology (including microbiology), biochemistry, anatomy and physiology), ACT test prep (all subjects), and PCAT test prep. While I enjoy helping students in all areas, my favorite subjects to tutor are math and chemistry, as there's so much room for growth of understanding in these subjects that many students dread. I make it a personal goal...

...graduated in 2015 from Yale University, where I double majored in Economics and Psychology. Back in high school and college, I tutored everyone from elementary / middle school students to fellow classmates across a variety of subjects such as piano, violin, math, English and standardized testing.

...experience began in Chicago while volunteering for 826CHI, a non for profit that paired kids with volunteers to help them with their creative writing work. After moving to Los Angeles, I picked up hours taking care of a kid for a great family. A huge part of my responsibilities included after school tutoring. I particularly love working on math problems because I enjoy the idea of breaking things down to their parts. Sometimes all it...

...Barnard College of Columbia University in New York City and studied Applied Mathematics and Philosophy, while also pursuing pre-medical studies. In NYC, I gained a wide variety of teaching and tutoring experiences in classrooms, with private clients, and via community service work for non-profit organizations. Currently, I work at a middle school in Chicago teaching middle school math, as well as tutor for city clients. I am most passionate about math, but am comfortable working...

...power. We all know that the best way to communicate is through verbal and non verbal communication. Humans are understood by gestures or tone of voice and that is how we interpret our state of mind. By this, I will add that we all are receptors of languages constantly and we do get to understand the basics of language in different ways. I personally learned English listening to music and watching TV programs. Language intrigued...

...train science and math students to teach. In this program I developed a passion for working with students both in and out of the classroom. I strongly believe in inquiry-based instruction, which consists of leading students to develop solutions on their own while analyzing their thought process. This allows the student and instructor to discover the student's misconceptions and for the student to correct them. I have found that this method is much more effective...

...learned so much, about myself and about teaching. It was also exciting to travel and see the world. Since I've returned, I have been teaching and tutoring in the Austin area. While I have tutored a wide range of subjects including English, Chemistry, Physics, Social Studies, French, Arabic and ESL, my favorite subject to teach is Math. I have loved math since I was a student myself and I really enjoy getting to share knowledge...

...shame because I really have a passion for these subjects. In my experience, it isn't that these subjects are inherently more difficult but rather they're often taught in a very cookie cutter, 'memorize this' format. And while this can work for some I believe a student must know not just the 'hows' but also the 'whys' behind what they're doing. This distinction is what I think turns a problem from something complex to something logical...

...currently a freshman Biochemistry major at the University of Texas at Austin. My career goals are to become a surgeon and also conduct neuroscience research.

I genuinely enjoy seeing someone solve a problem on their own and gaining that spark that motivates them to continue. I am currently involved in a PreHealth Honor...

...as a tutor is to show my students how exciting learning can be. Through enthusiasm and a genuine love for math and the sciences, I hope to influence my students to adopt this same passion for learning so that they are motivated to continue learning new material during their high school and college years. I have been tutoring for years and have thoroughly enjoyed the experience I have gained and the friendships I have made...

I'm an entering freshman at the University of Texas at Austin to study Computer Science. I''m here to help students grow and prepare for standardized tests like the ACT, AP exams and help out with STEM in general.

...hands on STEM projects, such as aerodynamics and electronic circuit modules. I've had the opportunity to teach small groups coding and engine performance as well. Honestly, there are very few things in life that get me as excited as when I get the opportunity to share my knowledge with someone else. I have a strong passion for math and science, which is contagious. When I learn something new and cool, I just have to share...

Ultimately, my goal is for the student to leave our time together with the satisfaction that comes from meeting a goal, the confidence of mastering a challenging subject, and the excitement of learning something new. I look forward to helping you meet your academic goals!

My name is Lindsay Spitz. I am a rising senior double majoring in Neuroscience and Psychology at Kenyon College in Gambier, Ohio.

...middle and high school students in the San Antonio community while working for a company similar to Varsity Tutoring. My favorite part of being a tutor is seeing the light-bulb moment happen for my students when they finally grasp a concept they???ve been struggling with. Usually with my students and as a student myself, I find that explaining concepts in a different way with language that is more understandable or connecting it to real-world experiences...

I have always loved being an athlete and...

I graduated Summa from University of St Thomas with a degree in English as well.In spite of my English background, I do a lot of math and physics tutoring. I'm a huge Red Sox fan and love watching detective shows when I have free time.... Positivity. Always. I believe that if a student is given positive tools and is allowed to understand the material rather than be lectured at, they're more likely to do well in the future.
