...swimming lessons to children of all ages. Ever since I started I have only grown more and more fond of helping those around me improve themselves in various disciplines. In these past nine years, I have expanded my range of tutoring to subjects such as Psychology, Neuroscience, Statistics, and even the Korean language. I earned my degree in Neuroscience, but I am currently training to become an actuary, so my areas of expertise cover a...

...majoring in linguistics. I have tutored elementary and middle school students in violin for four years, in addition to casual tutoring in history, writing, and languages. More important than helping my students reach the right answers is helping them ask the questions that will lead them to answers. I learn best when I find an aspect of the subject I'm studying that I'm passionate about, so I try to help my students find curiosity for...

Hello! I'm a freshman at Harvard University planning to concentrate in applied mathematics. I'm passionate about individualized education, and I focus on teaching students to think critically and creatively. I have a wide range of experience tutoring both traditional and competition math, and I'm particularly interested in the potential that online and mobile platforms like Varsity Tutors have for reaching broader audiences.

I'm a graduate of Northeastern University, having earned a Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry with a minor in History. I'm passionate about cancer research and I'm currently a PhD student at Yale.

...to be happy, passionate and focused on your success. My goal as a tutor is to make sure that you understand the material down to its very basics, and that you get enough practice to ensure that no test question will ever leave you puzzled. Everyone that I have ever tutored has walked out more passionate about the subject, even if it was one they initially hated. They have always had better grades than when...

...years and coming from Boston, I wanted to continue the work I was doing. I love teaching students of all levels, and I am excited to work with a broad range of students through Varsity Tutors. I want to become a high school teacher, but tutoring is something that is so unique in that you get to work with one student and learn their every strength and weakness. I look forward to working with any...

...material they are working on because it means they have an understanding of their strengths and weaknesses. I want to encourage students to always be able to explain why they picked a certain answer or what steps they took to solve a problem. I also want students to have a connection to the material and understand how it relates to their existing knowledge. The more connections we make between concepts, the better understanding we have...

...and now college student. Through my religious school, I taught students of all ages, ranging from Pre-K through 8th Grade. In high school, I helped prepare students for AP, SAT, ACT, and SAT subject tests as part of my role in the National Honor Society.

I recently returned from a trip to Honduras where my brigade was able to provide healthcare to a rural community in central Honduras. Before applying to college, I went through extensive ACT tutoring and would love to relay those skills to other students. I'm passionate about the social sciences, math, spanish, and all things natural science :) I intend to go to...

Hi! I am an engineering student at Northeastern University who loves helping people out with all subjects. Standardized tests are just a game against the clock that we can improve in so many ways. ... I have two philosophies. 1. Practice makes perfect. 2. There's an angle to everything. I think there is always more than one way to approach a problem, and typically the test tries to make you think you need to take the...

I am a rising sophomore at Michigan (Go Blue!!). I have loved math since before I could remember and am pursuing a major in Computer Science. When I am not coding/math-ing (is that a word?), I love to hang out with friends, work out, and scoop ice cream at my (other) job!

...science and love teaching other people! I think that while math, CS, and physics can certainly be abstract, the practical aspects of such topics can make learning both interesting and fulfilling. I have had a pretty extensive background in teaching/coaching. I have spent 1 year tutoring and teaching, 3 years as both a soccer and orienteering coach, and 1 semester as a Lab Assistant at MIT. I think the most important aspect of learning is...

My name is Zoe Fullerton and I am current student at Harvard Medical School. I attended Vassar College as an undergraduate where I studied Science, Technology and Society.

...flexibly change problem solving approaches based on what the student needs. I am focused on engaging everyone I work with and am keenly attuned to whether people are truly following along. As an actor and director with a degree in science, I am equally at home with "science-y" and "arts-y" students. I am there to help foster a love for learning regardless of how much the student may or may not love the subject beforehand.

...it's 33% learning the test, 33% sustaining motivation, and 34% evaluation of one's approach/style. As a tutor, I see my job as supporting a student in all three ways, more like a personal trainer than a teacher. I've seen how to improve 10 deciles on standardized test--enough to change your options to the next tier of schools--in 3 months. I spent 3 months and 450 hours studying the LSAT. Some of it was very productive,...

...with the keys to success. My teaching philosophy is I like to establish a good rapport with students and ensure that they are having a fun learning process. This manifest in the form of banter or jokes embedded so that the tutoring feels more interactive rather than someone talking at you. I like tutoring to be a setting where students can feel comfortable asking questions so any knowledge gaps can be filled. I know the...
