I am very passionate about the German language and culture and I am eager to ignite this passion in others. I began studying German at age 12 in middle school and went on to complete a BA degree at the State University of New York at Oswego. I subsequently completed a Masters degree through Middlebury College and was able to study in Berlin, Germany during this time. I believe in taking an academic as well as cultural approach to language learning, so that the language can truly "come alive" in the mind of the student.

As an educator my passion is to help students overcome their fear, struggle, and difficulty with mathematics. I see the struggle and I dealt with it myself as a student. My passion is building confidence in students while helping them to make sense of the mathematics.

I am currently a student at Middle Tennessee State University finishing my last semester on a degree in Industrial Mathematics with a minor in Physics.I've always been interested in math education, be it helping classmates grapple the material, or as a tutor for a nearby community college. I try to explain material in a way that illuminates what's actually happening and connect it with what is already understood. What's better than seeing someone figure out the answer is hearing "Oooh, that makes way more sense. That's why we ____."

With motivation and discipline, we can improve your language skills together!.Current MBA student.I received my MS in Quantitative Finance, and have both academic and professional knowledge of Finance and International Relations, and a background in Investment and Banking. I am a native Spanish speaker who loves teaching and helping others.Nuevamente, Disciplina y motivacin seran la clave para triunfar en este fascinante idioma.

I have been tutoring in some form for most of my life. In college I worked in the math study hall and helped with algebra, calculus and statistics. In graduate school I tutored in the chemistry department study hall for general and organic chemistry. More recently I have taught 4 undergraduate organic chemistry classes at University of Texas at Arlington and I am currently teaching General Chemistry at Tarrant County College. I have worked in drug discovery for several fortune 500 drug companies and have numerous patents, publications and reviews.

Hi, I'm Katie! I am a junior at Loyola University New Orleans. I study math, physics, and spanish. I have been a tutor for the past year for college level students. I enjoy helping students to realize their potential. When I'm not in the classroom, I am in the pool. I have the privilege of being the captain of the Women's Swim Team at Loyola. I've been a swimmer all my life and enjoy getting to know athletes in all sports!

Before working with Varsity Tutors, I spent two years working full time with talented but under-resourced high school students gain access to prestigious colleges and universities. During that time I developed a tutoring style that is rooted in energetic working relationships and a thorough evaluation of student skills. I believe that tutoring is only effective when a student benefits from it long after our sessions are finished. For this reason, I stress that my students focus on and internalize the process and approaches that we review during our time together. My expertise lies primarily in teaching reading and writing. A writing instructor I seek to imbue my pupils with the ability to produce essays that are cogent, well structured, and display a distinct voice. When working with students on reading, my main objective is to make sure that they have a specific way to tackle dense passages with maximum retention. My methodology for test taking centers on context dependent process of elimination and the utilization of comprehension rather than memorization.I graduated from Claremont McKenna College on a full-ride scholarship with a B.A. in Government and Legal Studies and have familiarity with the college admission process that I would be happy to share with clients. Some of the best moments of my teaching career thus far have been celebrating admissions to Stanford, Occidental, MIT, and Dartmouth with former pupils and guiding six juniors in high school to scores of 10 and above on the ACT writing section in 2014-2015. I find times like these to be extremely rewarding and expect to have more of them in the future.In my spare time I like to read (working on David Foster Wallace's "Infinite Jest" currently), follow the Cubs, Bears, Bulls, and Blackhawks, and learn about global politics.

I have a passion for learning and teaching languages and would like to infuse my students with that same enthusiasm. Language learning is not an easy task and with our day to day life, it is even more difficult to do something that is not easy. I hope my students see class time as an enjoyable way to have contact with a foreign language and learn as a byproduct of that fun experience.Now, a little bit more about me. I got my BA in Spanish Language and Literature from the University of Oregon and after having lived in Spain for over 13 years I also got a Masters Degree in Secondary Education, Vocational Training and Language Teaching Specialising in Spanish Language and Literature from the Universidad de Valencia, in Spain. During those 13 years spent in Spain I taught English to students from age 5-55, working in schools, after school programs, company classes, vocational training schools, and individuals who wanted to learn English. As far as extra curricular activities, I do it all. I like being outdoors and travelling, I run, cycle, hike, ski, camp. I like to paint, and read, watch movies. I love to talk to people and socialize as well as learn about different cultures and traditions when I travel. I am a fun, happy, out-going person and I feel I synchronize well with people, which, by the way, makes me a good teacher. :)Concerning my teaching philosophy and my tutoring style, I would say that great educators give students the tools they need in order to empower the student to learn and interact with the world on their own. I try to explain the material at hand, give the student the opportunity to use it, experiment with it, do a few study exercises to build a good foundation, and then let them explore ways to give it meaning, by way of projects, or role plays, games, or real life encounters. A person can learn theory about a language on their own, but the reason why they seek out a tutor or an instructor is for the interaction, that is where I come in, I act as a facilitator and a guide so that the student can engage their own imagination to really learn.
