As a pre-medical student at Princeton University, I've had significant experience with a vast array of subjects in both learning and teaching roles. I started tutoring in high school and have been hooked ever since! I enjoy helping others succeed in any way I can.After spending a few years helping students in my hometown prepare for the SAT, I've more recently focused on the hard sciences. I've taught students of all ages in the past and I believe it is important to curtail your teaching methods to the student's favorite learning style. Whether you're a visual, auditory, or tactile learner (or some combination of all three!), I'm confident I can assist you in understanding and mastering difficult concepts!I plan to matriculate to medical school in the summer of 2014 after taking a gap year filled with relaxation, a lot of hockey, and hopefully some scuba diving if I'm lucky enough to escape the barren oceanic depths of New Jersey!

My name is Savon. I'm from Chicago, IL and I am currently in Ann Arbor, MI attending U of M. I've had a passion for teaching since my senior year in high school, and for that reason I am completing my last two semesters in the teacher education program. I love helping students to feel empowered after learning something new, so I knew this would be the perfect opportunity to help students to become better thinkers and learners.

I am a graduate from the University of Miami, with majors in Creative Writing and in Philosophy. My current passions include environmentalism, health/wellness, yoga, and ethics, although while at UM I was president and coach of the club swim team for two years, while still competing in meets. In my free time, I write stories, read fiction novels and eastern philosophy, practice meditation and yoga, create plant-based recipes via my Instagram blog, and frequent the beach. I aspire to be the next Jodi Picoult or Dan Brown.

Hi! I'm Amanda. I love math and sharing it with others. I want to help you to understand mathematics as well as to see the fun and beauty in it. Let's get to it!

Dylan currently attends Columbia University in the City of New York, and is pursuing a Bachelors Degree in Psychology with concentrations in Business Management and Classics. He grew up just north of Seattle after spending the first two years of his life in Washington, D.C., and plans to split his time between New York and Seattle in upcoming summers. Dylan discovered his passion for mentoring on the lacrosse field in high school while helping to run summer youth lacrosse camps, and became involved in academic tutoring through his high school soon after. He believes that common foundations of learning exist across many disciplines, and values a specific and flexible approach to any topic to best apply those ideas and ensure individual enjoyment and success for every student. In the spare time he manages to carve out of his schedule, he enjoys playing lacrosse, attempting to keep up with movies, rooting on the New England Patriots and reading.

I'm an adjunct English professor at Fordham University, and I have my MFA in Young Adult Literature from The New School. I love helping students develop their own writing voice and teaching them the kind of writing skills that can help them on the SATs and beyond. I have experience working with middle, high school and college students on SAT prep, college writing and creative writing. When I'm not teaching, I'm a young adult writer and I enjoy taking dance classes, doing improv and sketch comedy and running in 5K races

Having gone through an additional three years of law school at Case Western Reserve University after four years of college at Brigham Young University, I know what it's like to be a student. I've been one for a very long time. So as a result, I've picked up on different ways of studying that are appropriate for different levels, different settings, and different subjects.So whether a student is preparing for the ACT or the LSAT, is wanting to polish writing skills, or is wanting to strengthen a particular subject, I can do it.I graduated with honors with a degree in Economics from BYU, and graduated with high honors with my law degree from Case Western. I thus have a background in both math and in writing and reading. And I love being able to help other people learn in these areas.When I'm not working, I love cooking, exercising, or playing with my family.

Hello, there!My name is Sarah Manns, and I am a 19-year-old Sophomore at the University of Texas at Dallas. I’m currently working towards a Bachelor's Degree in Literary Studies, minoring in Psychology, and am working towards teaching certification. Afterwards, I intend to work towards my Masters Degree in Humanities with a focus on Studies in Literature. I have been a part of the Future Teacher Internship program at my high school, worked as a teaching intern/assistant, and am currently employed as an AVID tutor. I have worked with students ranging from kindergarten to 8th grade, though my specialty lies with older kids. With a GPA of 4.5, I was ranked number 10 in my high school graduating class of over 650 students, and my current GPA at UTD is 3.97.Ever since I was about ten years old, I’ve known I’ve wanted to teach. Helping others is my passion, and I want to have a positive impact on the lives of those I meet. There’s nothing better than the euphoric feeling I get when I know I’ve helped a student succeed, changed their lives for the better, or helped them understand something they once struggled with. Even the little things matter to me, and if nothing else, I’d like to at least bring a smile to every students’ face. I’m a very empathetic person and I hope that when I tutor or eventually teach, my students will feel comfortable to be themselves around me and know that they have someone to turn to for guidance in any situation. I respect each and every student as an individual, as a human being, and as an equal. I don’t view my students as inferior, and by making this level of respect clear, hopefully my students will feel more inclined to express themselves and trust in me. I only want the best for my students, and I will work hard to ensure that every one of them succeeds at their goals at least in some way.I am comfortable tutoring an array of subjects, but I would feel most comfortable tutoring English or math. Any subject that deals with the basic middle school curriculum is fine for me to tackle, thanks to my experience working as a middle school AVID tutor. Even if, for some reason, I am somewhat rusty or unfamiliar with a particular subject, I can use the AVID method to draw upon what the student already knows, ask pertinent and engaging questions, keep the student focused and on task, and guide the student to reach the conclusion fairly independently. Since I’ve recently graduated high school (2015), most of the material is still relatively fresh in my mind. At most, I’ll need a quick refresher on a certain topic, but I will be quick to remember and highly effective in helping a struggling student gain a better understanding. I have experience with taking standardized tests like the SAT, PSAT, TAKS, AND STAAR (among others) and with taking multiple AP classes and tests. I’ve been a very successful student in my academic career, and am quite enthusiastic about passing down knowledge or tips to any student who wants them.I have a fairly flexible schedule and am willing to change things up depending on the needs of my clients. I will be extremely positive, cooperative, and willing to meet any needs that you or your child have. I want to see happiness, success, and light bulbs going off in my students’ heads! I hope you’ll consider me as a good fit for your student.Thank you very much!

I am a current student at Baylor University. I am currently working towards receiving my Bachelors of Science in Public Health with a focus on the biological aspects. I have intentions of attending medical school after my undergraduate program. Throughout high school, I tutored children in all grades (K-12) and fell in love with helping others learn. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about English, Literature, and Science. Iundertsna the importance of education and I know that sometimes learning is not easy. My motto with tutoring has always been "By a student, For a student". I want to relate to my students on a personal level and build connections while advancing their knowledge. Outside of academics, I am a current student-athlete at my university running on the Track and Field team.

Believe it or not I didn't start understanding math until the 6th grade. Something clicked for me and from then on math became fun and my favorite subject. My first job was working as a tutor/mentor at the age of 16. I tutored middle school kids in all subjects but especially math. The best part of tutoring is seeing it "click for the student". I thoroughly take pleasure in teaching my favorite subject. My teaching style is serious but fun. I have a lot of patience so if there is one part of problem that a student is stuck on I can work with the student until they understand it. Math can be confusing until you learn how to speak the language of math and that is what I am here for. To help students learn the language of MATH!
