...later realized that anyone can learn anything through practice and repetition. Majoring in biology was not easy and most of my time was spent teaching myself the material. Independent studying is good because you come up with different ways to learn the material, which is helpful when teaching someone else. The rest of my time was spent participating in study groups, where colleagues and I would teach each other. From my previous experience as a...

I also have tutored in Algebra, Trigonometry, and Chemistry. I look forward to helping students achieve their goals and sharing the enthusiasm I...

...After a bachelor's in physics I completed a teaching certification program and taught all 3 subjects (Math, Physics and Chemistry) at the high school level for 7 years. This experience has granted me with technics to handle several kinds of challenges a student may have learning Mathematics or understanding a science phenomenon. I am in fact from a teacher dynasty (3 Teachers from my ascendants) and I believe that may be a reason to my...

...in particular because the classical way of teaching is about solving problems and not about why it is so interesting. I'm interested in mathematics because I would like to put an emphasis on the mathematical structures that frame problems. I believe that if you have the full picture, it would actually make problems easier to solve! Last semester I was a TA for a per-calculus class (MAT125) for the math department. Before that I was...

...to sum up my way of thinking. When I was a child, twiddling my thumbs during a long road trip, I would grab a pen and paper and attempt to draw. I could imagine the details I wanted to create, but the drawing never came out the way I would picture it. So, I would play with numbers, because I could create the value. I can specifically remember multiplying 2 by itself 20 times, just...

...Random Variables & Stochastic processes, Complex Variables, Real Analysis, High School and College Level Physics, SAT, Algebra, GRE, GMAT, etc. For many students, Mathematics is a tedious subject therefore, I try my best to make classes enjoyable by engaging with the students and going an extra mile if needed, giving examples from the real-life and inculcating a never give up attitude in them. Over the years my professional career, which spans from Software Engineering to...

...life. I have always enjoyed helping people learn how to do difficult problems in ways that make sense to them - not the way the book describes it. Almost everything that we learn is pretty easy when you boil it down, the real problem is that not everyone learns the way that the book or the teacher teaches it. So the first step is always to figure out how YOU learn, and we'll get started...

...Teaching. At George Washington University, I was employed by the Statistics Department as a tutor working during their office hours. I tutored Statistics, but I am also comfortable tutoring Algebra I, Algebra II, Trigonometry, Pre-Calculus, Calculus I, Calculus II, and Calculus III. My favorite subject to tutor is Statistics. As a tutor I believe that it is my job to bring enthusiasm and positivity to all my sessions. I also like to ask my students...

...Along with economics, these are my favorite subjects to tutor because they involve concrete answers deeply rooted in logic. As a tutor, I strive to help students better understand complex problems and develop problem-solving skills. This mindset is obviously crucial for tests, but it also helps students develop analytical techniques that can benefit them in innumerable ways. Outside academics, I enjoy reading about current affairs, weight lifting, and of course, watching Netflix.

...have a passion for teaching, ever since helping my friends out with academics in high school, and I have experience tutoring or teaching calculus, physics, chemistry, and epidemiology. My college coursework includes multivariable calculus, differential equations, organic chemistry, physics, and linear algebra. In addition, I've worked extensively with high school mentorship programs in the Boston area. I want to do my part to make sure students have the support they need to succeed academically and...

Learning math is all about trial and error, that is why we use pencils! Math is a hands on subject where students learn by doing. That is the approach I take when teaching and tutoring math. I am merely a guide to keep students on the right path, rather than tell them where to go.

I am a nuclear physicist. I have a Masters in Particle Physics and a PhD in Subatomic Physics. I work with detectors and computers in large particle accelerators. I have taught several courses at different levels in the subjects of physics and mathematics.

...a rising junior at Cornell University studying physics. I have worked with students of the elementary, middle, and high school levels in subjects such as math, physics, and even music production! I mainly focus on tutoring math and physics because I believe having a deep understanding of these subjects allows one to think more analytically of the world around us. I also believe in getting to know how a student learns best, as everyone learns...

...hope to continue my journey as a tutor. I employ a teaching strategy of explaining important concepts, practicing problems, and reviewing mistakes. My method is to begin by finding the student's weaknesses and explaining those difficult concepts to the students. I then guide the student through practice problems and finally discuss with the student his or her mistakes and show the student how to avoid those mistakes in the future. My teaching strategy relies heavily...

...help class. Besides, I have worked as a lecturer of mathematics in Kathmandu Engineering College, Kathmandu, Nepal for more than 7 years to the undergraduates. Moreover, I have taught mathematics to the lower and secondary schools back in my country. As you can see, I have been teaching/tutoring mathematics to different levels for more than 10 years. Here, I am a certify tutor of mathematics at Varsity Tutors platform, and I am eligible to teach/tutor...

I firmly believe in the value of patience when tackling challenging subjects, a principle that has proven successful in my own learning journey. I tutor in numerous...

My name is Jefferson Li, and I am a student at the Stern School of Business and NYU. I love working with students, and I have been tutoring for over 7 years now. While my favorite subject to tutor is mathematics, I have also tutored students in SAT and ACT prep. I believe that the best way to learn is to understand the core concepts behind the material, and then practice, practice, practice!

...thrilled to be apart of the Varsity Tutors team where I can share my passion for math and help students reach their academic goals! I earned my Bachelor of Science in mechanical engineering at the University of Connecticut. However, it was back in grade school when I first discovered my passion for math. I now have 13 years of experience tutoring math, science and test prep. Math is so much easier with a good teacher....

...I love helping others understand a wide range of subjects, and I do it with enthusiasm, patience, and humor. After focusing on math and science classes in college, I've gained the ability to analyze problems from many different perspectives and help others solve a multitude of problems. Although, what I bring to tutoring sessions is more than just a knowledge of academic material. Communicating effectively is the most important step in teaching and learning, and...
