I have been told that I am a "born teacher," but this is not the case. If anything, I was born a learner, and along the way I learned how to teach. To me, a large part of teaching is figuring out how people learn. I am passionate about education because I am a constant learner myself. I believe that a key element in teaching a foreign language is to keep the student motivated. My personal style of tutoring brings enthusiasm and cultural elements. I teach with a contagious smile and open personality that helps me to interact with a student as I guide them through their learning process. Teaching my native Spanish language enables me to draw upon my own culture and personal experience as a foreign language learner as I teach my students to effectively communicate with me in my own language and, perhaps more importantly, to gain an appreciation for another language and culture. I strive to promote cross-cultural awareness and appreciation. As a native of Mexico, I try to bring as much of my culture into the learning process as possible. I believe that effective tutors understand what knowledge their students already have, and find a way to tap into that knowledge and build upon it. The results I have seen so far are quite positive. One thing that all of my students can agree on is that they never forget how much I love to teach them, and the passion and energy I devote to their learning process. It is often translated into their passion to think and learn, and that is why I love teaching Spanish.

Having been involved in tutoring officially and unofficially for many years, I have developed a passion for helping students achieve their potential. My previous tutoring experiences include teaching high school biology, SAT prep, math tutoring, and tutoring medical students at risk for failing a course. I focus on individualizing my teaching style to meet each students needs by first trying to identify the underlying factors that are keeping each student from excelling. I have a B.S. in Biology and a PhD in Immunology and Virology and enjoy tutoring both math and science.

I am a sophomore at Arizona State University double majoring in Biology (Genetics and Cell Development) and Environmental Science. I have been a tutor for 5 years and swim instructor for 3 years. I have a lot of experience with kids in general, but also with teaching people of all ages and learning styles. I have the most experience with kids of elementary school age, however, I am very well versed in how to teach any age and have the most recent experience with high school and college-level topics. I also have experience working with kids with disabilities, autism and ADHD specifically. I have always loved working with kids and have a very good grasp of how to relate to them and help them understand new topics.

I have been tutoring for the past 6 years. I volunteered for a tutoring organization in college, and upon graduating worked for a tutoring company in my hometown.I graduated from the University of Pittsburgh in 2014 where I completed degrees in Chinese as well as Communications. Afterwards, I worked in a special education classroom for students who were deaf or hard of hearing. Following that I worked for Big Brothers Big Sisters for 2 years. I ran mentoring programs within many elementary and middle school public schools in the Pittsburgh area.I completed my Masters in Early Childhood Education (specifically PreK-4), in 2018. I currently am a Kindergarten teacher. Working with children is truly my passion. I have 21 wonderful 5/6 year old students.I still tutor out of school hours. I am always happy to go the extra mile and help with anything, not just the subjects where I specialize. If I don't know the answer to something I'm happy to do the research and figure it out. I'm also happy to adapt my lessons and methods to fit the student and their learning style.

One of the things I find my greatest pleasure in is being able to help others. There are few things as rewarding to me as seeing the "Aha!" moment a student gets during tutoring. That's why I'm here: I'm hoping to help students in need of assistance to soar academically.My specialty is in the STEM field, particularly mathematics. Since math subjects tend to build on each other and remain necessary in the engineering field, most math subjects are still fresh in my mind. I excel in STEM subjects and have a high affinity for theory, so I'm confident in my abilities instruct others well.

The very first student whom I tutored received a perfect score on the ACT. That is why I have continued tutoring for the past seven years. Throughout the course of my tutoring, I have had the pleasure of working with a wide variety of students from kindergarten to graduate school.

I believe every student deserves the opportunity to learn to the best of their ability, and the chance to reach their potential. I know not every student receives that in school, so my goal is to reach as many students as I can, and give them that opportunity.

I am a second year student at Tufts University. Currently, I am pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering and a Bachelor of Science in Physics. While I have primarily tutored science courses in my past 2 years of experience, I am also confident in my ability to assist students with other areas such as reading comprehension, organization, writing skills, and mathematics. All of these additional areas are critical in the field of engineering and physics, and my in-depth education has provided me with the skills to assist students best in any of these areas.As a tutor who enjoys helping students learn and grow, I believe that the strongest tool to helping students develop their skills is by first allowing them to develop a passion and confidence for their goals. My tutoring style include a variety of approaches, all of which integrate each of the following and more: confidence that the student has the ability to grow, interest in the topic to help students self-motivate to learn, and genuine comprehension of subject matter over memorization.Outside of academia, I am very involved with the music community. I have been writing original music for 7 years and enjoy playing music with peers in various style bands. I also have a great love for the outdoors and spend much of my time on hikes or paddle boarding at the local lake.If you are looking for a confident and highly qualified tutor who will guarantee 100% commitment to students and their personal academic development, I hope to get in contact with you soon!

My parents instilled the necessity of always having the appropriate tools for every task. For our sports activities, my Dad spent endless amounts of time researching the sneakers, cleats, helmets, ballet shoes, and cheerleading pom-poms that were to accompany my brother and I. Since there was no internet, we shopped from store-to store to ensure that our equipment would give us the best possible input to our performance. Not rich by any means, our parents felt that it was worth the expense in order for us to perform at our peaks.It is with these thoughts in mind, that I have approached my career as an educator. I see education as a tool for life. It allows students to be better performers in a variety of ways, not just academically. The well-educated student has been trained to have a positive impact on his community and to be socially sound.Therefore, it is this awareness that prompted my decision to become a Varsity Tutor. The vetting process, alone, proves that VT believes that the proper tools ensure peak performance. Rest assured that I will be instrumental in this vision of the well-educated student.

I'm a sophomore at Vanderbilt University, majoring in Physics and Classics and minoring in Mathematics and Computer Science. I'm qualified to teach a wide variety of subjects, but prefer to focus on the fields I'm studying in school listed above; I have a passion for those areas that I want to share with everyone, no matter the education level or confidence. I believe that no one is "bad at math," but many people haven't been taught math and science concepts in a way that matches how they best learn. As a result, I try to tailor my teaching style to be the best it can be for each individual student. With regard to math and physics, I myself prefer a physical, graphical understanding of different concepts, so I do best at explaining what seemingly abstract concepts actually mean in the real world and how they act on a graph.
