Hello! My name is Megan and I'm a CPA living and working in Chicago. I graduated from Butler University in Indianapolis in 2010, and I've been working in corporate accounting ever since.I started tutoring so I could help students better learn corporate finance and accounting concepts for themselves, and hopefully spread the finance love. Well, at least help them feel more comfortable and confident with the material. Have a solid understanding of these business concepts opens up so many opportunities in any career path. With over 10 years of accounting experience, I hope I can help you master these concepts too!

Jeannine

Elementary School Tutor • +20 Subjects

As an educator with a Bachelor of Arts in Elementary Education from the University of Southern Indiana, I find immense joy in witnessing the moment a student truly understands a concept that once challenged them. With over 11 years of classroom experience and 5 years in online tutoring, 3 of which have been with Varsity Tutors, I specialize in Elementary English, Math, Reading, Science, Writing, and Social Studies. My teaching philosophy centers on creating a supportive learning environment that connects with each student's unique interests, fostering both confidence and engagement in their learning journey. I am particularly passionate about teaching Reading and Phonics, as well as Social Studies, which were my favorite subjects as a student. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy spending quality time with my family, hiking, reading, playing board games, crafting, and savoring a good cup of coffee.

Lisa

Elementary School English Tutor • +10 Subjects

When I was working toward my bachelor's degree in counseling, all I knew was that I wanted to help people. Thoughts of teaching had not entered my mind. However, several years later I had an opportunity to teach and quickly fell in love with the creativity of helping someone grasp a new concept and the excitement of seeing someone's eyes light up when they "got it".My fourteen years' experience has been in classroom and homeschool teaching, as well as one-on-one tutoring. I have also been a piano teacher.English, history, elementary math, and piano are some of the subjects I enjoy teaching.

Lauren

ACT Prep Tutor • +32 Subjects

I am a current undergrad at Princeton University who plans to become a professor. Studying math or literature has always made me happy, and I want to help others find enjoyment in their learning too. After helping classmates of all levels in nearly every subject throughout my schooling, I had my first formal teaching/tutoring assignment as a high school senior when teachers asked me to help lead my school's SAT prep lessons. Later, at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, I paused my education and gained further teaching/tutoring experience, first in a religious setting, and later as a coach for my high school's math team. I love helping students develop their problem solving skills in math and their critical reading and writing skills in English, and I am also passionate about helping students prepare the best college application possible. But no matter the subject, I enjoy forming connections with my students so that learning is not something they dread. This should be fun!
