...succeed. Furthermore, I am passionate about not only teaching my students the material necessary to improve their scores on standardized tests and their grades in their classes, but also keeping them engaged as they progress through any test prep/academic programs. As someone who has been working with high schoolers since college, I find that I am able to connect with students on the important process of excelling both in school and on standardized tests such...

...degrees in mathematics, education, and computer science, as well as a teaching license. Since then, I've been teaching high school mathematics, although I'm passionate about a broad range of other subjects as well. I've never had the opportunity to tutor professionally before joining Varsity Tutors, but I'm excited to help students meet their education goals and spark their curiosity for learning. I love to be creative in everything I do, which shines through in my...

...process I communicate clearly and frequently with the parents. I try to cultivate in my students a love of learning for the sake of learning. Of course there are always those difficult days when a student is tired or would do anything other than homework. To maintain interest and motivation I keep my lessons fun, interesting and exciting. I convey information in a simple and clear fashion, set learning goals that are within reach and...

...subjects to tutor are mathematics, ranging from middle school to college level. I have experience in mentorship with many young students through the "International Space Apps Challenge" and other peer-to-peer teaching environments. My teaching style is very visual, and I tend to write down and try to visualize each concept I am talking about. If there are different ways the student believes they learn best, I will make active efforts to tailor each session to...

I am a graduate student from University of Michigan. I am interested in teaching maths to the young youth. I believe that if concepts and basics are clear then a student can solve any difficult problem in life.

...training them to become experts in the topics they're struggling with or helping them transition their understanding into exam results. I mainly tutor math (algebra, geometry, precalc, trig, calculus), though I can also tutor students for the SAT. I believe the best way to learn math is to build a strong foundation in basics supported by visual and proof-based understanding, and aim to help each individual student find their best way to understand a topic.

...from Colby College. In college, I worked as a biology tutor for freshmen students, an SAT tutor for local high school students, and a drum teacher for local youth and college students. My experience with youth goes from my tutoring experience to my experience as an outdoor trip leader with middle school kids in the Yellowstone Wilderness. I love working with young people and am great at explaining things and helping the student find the...

...working with kids and helping others achieve their highest potential. I am where I am today because of the people who helped me and saw potential in me. I hope to be that same positive influence for others. While I tutor a broad range of subjects I am most passionate about Algebra, Geometry, SAT math, and AP stats. My extensive experience in laboratory research has equipped me with higher-level skills in STEM that are built...

...former physics and mathematics student from the University of Rhode Island. There, I discovered the teachings of renowned physicist Richard Feynman which, compressed, might read: "if you really understand something, then you can explain it to your grandmother." I spend a lot of my free time reading and writing, and am currently working my way through Dubliners, a series of stories by James Joyce. I also play guitar and know upwards of several hundred songs.

...obstacles and I wish to do the same for other students. My philosophy for tutoring students is to try my best and tailor my teaching style to what works for the student, and this I achieve by getting to know the student and learning what their interests are so that I can apply those same soft skills to a subject they might find challenging. Personally, my favorite subjects are biology (specifically genetics and oncology), math,...

I am a senior Chemistry major at Cornell University on the pre-med track and in the process of applying to medical school. I would love to share my knowledge in the sciences and standardized test strategies that I have acquired in my academic career.

...make sure they truly grasp concepts and can derive results based on their own understanding. My favorite subject to tutor is physics, because that is the subject that originally inspired me to be an engineer. The fact that you can calculate and predict physical phenomena (like how fast a wheel will roll down a ramp or how far a pumpkin will travel when launched at a specific angle and speed) and then alter parameters to...

...homeless families as well as assist them with their homework. I also worked as a teachers helper after school in the math office; I proved to be an asset to the teachers because of my ability to relate to students and convey the material in a variety of ways to ensure full comprehension. In addition to math, I tutor all elementary school subjects. I strongly believe in the pertinence of early childhood education setting the...

I'm currently a junior at Boston University studying computer science . I have a love for math and programming and want to help students find that love as well.

...in the Peace Corps, and tutoring college students as a teacher's assistant for Genetics during my undergraduate degree. I love to work with students to help expand their knowledge and assist them to maximize their full learning potential. I teach a lot of subjects but my passion lies in the sciences and statistics, especially in environmental science, biology, chemistry, and biostats. I believe that there are so many ways to achieve an understanding for whats...

I have always had a knack for seeing multiple solutions to a given problem (even receiving a little gag award for our fifth grade graduation, titled: "I have a better way to do that" award). In addition to the natural joy I get from tutoring, I also enjoy solving the puzzle of determining which solution method matches best with how each student learns and thinks.

...favorite subjects to tutor are Spanish, since is my native language, and Math, because I love numbers. My philosophy of teaching can be summed up in two words: have fun. Traditionally, school classes stress students with lots of threats about grades and failure. I believe that we learn best when we are relaxed, enjoying ourselves and the process of learning. When I'm not at work, I enjoy going out to the movies, listening to music,...
