I am a veteran and professional engineer working in the space industry. My military background is in computer systems/networks and I completed my undergraduate degree in Chemical Engineering from the University of Washington in Seattle. I am nearing the end of my M.S. in Aeronautics & Astronautics from Purdue, which I have been working towards part-time since 2020. I have tutoring experience from my undergraduate experience where I worked as a chemistry, physics, and mathematics tutor. Additionally, I have mentoring experience in my current role as an engineer. I have a strong interest in continual learning and enjoy helping others succeed in their studies & educational pursuits.

I have a Ph.D. in Molecular Pathology & Immunology from Vanderbilt University and a Bachelors degree in Chemistry & Biology from the University of Arkansas. I'm passionate about teaching, but even more about helping students find the curiosity in learning. I consider myself a life-long learner and hope to inspire others to find the same joy and curiosity. I have experience in teaching at the collegiate/graduate level as well as with middle school/high school students. I spent a lot of time in graduate school learning how to communicate effectively with many audiences and am eager to put those skills to use. My communication and teaching skills are consistently ranked as a strength, and I even have a few awards to show it. My specialty is in advanced-level biomedical sciences (immunology, pathology, microbiology, genetics, etc.), but I tutor high school biology upward, as well as high-school and college-level chemistry (General & Organic). I have a lot of experience in science writing/communication and am happy to offer tutoring on writing (essays, college/graduate school admission, journal articles, etc). Feel free to reach out with any questions! I have a flexible schedule and will get back to you ASAP!

As a passionate tutor with a Doctorate in Biochemistry from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, I am dedicated to helping students navigate the complexities of science, particularly in microbiology and related fields. My experience as a teaching assistant for courses such as virology and general biochemistry has equipped me with a variety of strategies tailored to different learning styles. I understand firsthand the struggles of mastering challenging material, which fuels my commitment to fostering a supportive learning environment. My approach combines evidence-based methods with personalized support, ensuring that each student feels empowered to succeed!

I am a graduate of Indiana University Bloomington (IUB), where I earned Bachelor of Science degrees in Biology, Psychology, and Neuroscience. Through my experience as a student, undergraduate teaching assistant (peer tutor/AI), and research mentor, I learned that effective and empowering learning is mostly about HOW you study as opposed to HOW MUCH you study. My best teachers always taught me to focus on solidifying the big picture (high yield) concepts first and add in smaller (low yield) details afterwards. This practice of breaking down complex ideas into fundamental first principles made me understand just how powerful knowledge could be and how it could be used to solve the world's hardest problems. This made even the smallest and most tedious of details easy to learn. I applied these same concepts to my students with tremendous success. In the process of learning and teaching, I fell in love with fostering "aha" moments while sharing my most passionate academic interests with others. Ultimately, that's why I'm here at Varsity Tutors! I want to give all of you the best of the teaching experiences that I was given, as well as include the things that I always wish that I had. While I tutor in almost every subject, I'm most passionate about Spanish and the sciences. Spanish gave me an entirely new culture to explore and people to connect to, while science helped me understand just how incredible our universe can be. Consequently, both are near and dear to my heart. Shortly after graduating college in 2019, I started the Medical Scientist Training Program at the Indiana University School of Medicine. I am fortunate to be simultaneously working towards my MD and towards a PhD in Neuroscience. I want to use my career to improve our understanding and management of psychiatric conditions as well as to train the next generation of great thinkers and innovators. Outside of academia, I like to compete in Olympic weightlifting, travel, do outdoorsy and adventurous things, listen and dance to hip hop, and spend time with the homies. I'm constantly discovering new passions, and firmly believe that personal growth is just as important as academic development.

My name is Anjali! I am a senior at Duke University studying global health and biology on the pre-medicine track. I take mostly stem classes at Duke, including biology, general chemistry, organic chemistry, and biochemistry. In high school, I particularly enjoyed taking classes like AP Chemistry, AP biology, AP psychology, anatomy and physiology, and I received an AP scholar with distinction award as a result. With this focus in primarily STEM classes, I am able to help with a range of science based subjects but specialize in organic chemistry a little more than the others. I have experience instructing at Mathnasium, being able to help with a range of math levels from elementary math to high school level math. Because of my time there, I know how important a good understanding of any material depends on an instructor's ability to convey and I want to be able to help others just as my favorite professors have helped me. In terms of teaching, I like to introduce the subject of interest in a broad way with more conceptualization before focusing on certain problems that are good for comprehension. I think problem solving and understanding one's train of thought is one of the most beneficial ways to succeed in science and math so step by step problem solving is something I like to spend time on. However, my method can easily be adjusted to fit a students individual needs. I also tend to tutor with my Ipad, so it is easy for me to teach in a visual manner. I want to be able to help my students as much as possible, so any additional suggestions or resources can easily be implemented. I would also love to assist any high schoolers with the college application process and writing essays, as it is something I like to do! I am easy to reach and will try my hardest to provide the fastest responses. Feel free to contact me with any questions or for a lesson!

Hi! I am a math and science enthusiast first and foremost. Officially, I am a Harvard Biophysics graduate student. I enjoy problem-solving, discussing science, and sharing my expertise with others. I double majored in Applied Mathematics & Statistics and Biomedical Engineering. I love teaching Physics, and I have extensive experience tutoring Discrete Math and Real Analysis. I also served as a teaching fellow at Johns Hopkins University in Probability and Statistics, and later at Harvard University in Stochastic Processes. In addition, I completed a variety of foundational and applied computer science courses in college and applied these skills in various projects. I have been fluent in Java, and today I primarily use Python and R for my research projects. While most of my teaching experience is at the college level, I also enjoy working with high school students, whether in standard, honors, or AP- or IB-level courses.

I graduated from Cornell University studying Biology and choosing to specialize in Neurobiology and Behavior. I have an extensive background in math and science. I was pre- med during my four years and I am currently working part time while finishing my final year of medical school. Right after graduating, I participated in City Year, an AMERICORPS education focused non-profit that partners with schools needing the most assistance. I led the 9th Grade academy where my job was to design tailored math and science curricula for 6-8 high risk academic students in 5 different classes. I provided attendance and behavior sessions for another group of students and I served as the Math Coordinator for my team. Since then, I have been working with Varsity tutors and offering academic assistance to other students in my school. Although medical school and tutoring occupy most of my time, I enjoy watching and playing basketball and soccer (futbol). I am a big fan of hip hop and the arts, as well. I have seen that the biggest challenge that prevents students from succeeding is a lack of self confidence. My mother is a part-time business owner, who couldn't operate a computer on her own until this year. When I was young, she simply decided that she was 'bad at technology' and it stuck. Eventually, my sister and I sat her down and gave her instructions on how to access the internet. The next day, we taught her how to use Microsoft word. We made sure that she focused on each skill alone and ignored everything else that seemed confusing. Two weeks later, she got the hang of it. I tutor by presenting the subject matter in a similar way while frequently setting attainable goals so that students will realize how easy it is for them to master subjects on their own. It is the same method I use to learn all of the challenging material I encounter every day. I look forward to meeting you and helping you build the confidence and skills necessary to succeed.

I graduated from Dartmouth College with a double major, receiving a Bachelor of Arts in both Biochemistry/Molecular Biology and Music. I continued my education at Columbia University and received Master of Arts in Biology. Starting in middle school and continuing through my graduate career, I have tutored students in a wide variety of subjects, but I was most effective at tutoring math and science because of my lifelong love and aptitude for these subjects. Since I am also working towards a career in molecular biology, I use math and science every day, and I can explain real-world applications and uses for these subjects that may not seem obvious. By demonstrating the use of math and science in everyday life, I am able to help interact with the student and increase their interest in a subject in which they may experience difficulty. I also believe that as a tutor, it is my responsibility to engage with the student to help them achieve and even surpass their goals. In my spare time, I am heavily involved with music in New York City, being part of multiple choirs and continuing to play piano. I also enjoy exercising and exploring the city whenever I have the chance.

I am a professional scientist with multiple years of experience in the biopharmaceutical field. I have spent time in the classroom with elementary aged students and am comfortable with this age group. I am also familiar with AP classes and ACT/SAT preparation. I look forward to sharing my love of learning with students and helping them achieve academic goals!

As a recent graduate from Cornell University with a degree in biological sciences and someone who plans to attend medical school in the future, my passion and appreciation for the sciences and medicine is something I consider integral to my identity. My favorite subjects to tutor are biology and chemistry as those are the subjects in which I have past teaching experience in the classroom setting. In particular, my teaching style focuses on rephrasing and remodeling initially daunting concepts and information into bite-sized and digestible bits of information that any student can comprehend. I firmly believe that a lot of what slows students down in the learning process is their preconceived notions of course material. My passion for helping students stems from my experiences as an undergraduate where I can remember on countless occasions feeling lost in the material with little direction on how to approach the curriculum. I can think back to the many times I would have benefitted from having someone who could have guided me through stretches of daunting coursework which led me to become a tutor myself. As a teaching assistant, I discovered my passion for helping students manage their way through courses that many considered to be very difficult. Seeing how they reacted to my assistance reminded me why I applied for the position in the first place and motivates me to help students learn more every single day.
