I am a Mechanical Engineer. At the moment though, I have decided to change directions and pursue a career in medicine. As I go to school part time and prepare for my MCAT, I am tutoring physics, mathematics, biology, and chemistry, here at Varsity Tutors with my spare time.

I am a firm believer that all students learn differently and identifying how each student best learns is essential to his/her academic success. Therefore, as a tutor, I aim to specifically tailor my teaching style to each student in order to help them maximize their potential. Outside of academics, I enjoy exercising, playing basketball, cooking, and attending concerts and other live performances in the Philadelphia area.

I am pursuing a post-Bachelor certificate in Dietetics at Virginia State University. Having both school experiences has given me exposure to a wide variety of subjects. I also have diverse tutoring experience. I tutored peers in Writing, Math and Statistics as an undergrad, pre-kindergarteners to adults in reading comprehension, phonics, math and test prep at a learning center in Michigan, and, most recently, reading, writing and standardized test preparation to a variety of students here in Vir...More

I am always excited to teach willing students. My philosophy is that there are no hard subjects. Any difficult concept can be broken down into easier, more digestible content, based on how well a tutor can understand their students. And that is what I believe I can help achieve with any student of mine of any age.

I am currently doing cancer research at the Mount Sinai Medical Center. As a student I was never been able to decide on a favorite subject because I felt anything I studied in school could be fun and much easier if approached with the right attitude. Instead of boring memorization, I like to look for patterns and think of creative approaches to study subjects that can otherwise be very frustrating. My goal as a tutor is to help students gain confidence and to think of creative approaches to subj...More

I am passionate about helping others break down barriers in order to achieve success. This passion is the basis of my teaching philosophy: teachers and students must work together as an engaged unit to find the best learning solutions for the student. My past teaching and tutoring experience has prepared me to work with varying age groups and cultural/academic backgrounds. While in high school, I volunteered to be a companion for young children with Cerebral Palsy. During my years at Rhodes Coll...More

I am currently a graduate student looking to complete my Master's degree in Education along with my teaching credential to teach Foundational Math. I just moved up to Orange County a few months ago and cannot wait to see what new adventures will come in the next year! I have been tutoring since I was in high school and have always enjoyed mathematics. Since then, I have worked with students as young as kindergarten all the way up to high school seniors. Over the years, I have learned that not ev...More

I am a graduate of Cornell University where I received my Bachelors of Science in Animal Science and my Masters in the Art of Teaching in Science. After graduation, I decided to pursue my passion for horseback riding by training with Olympian Phillip Dutton for a year. During this time, I achieved many personal riding goals in addition to teaching younger riding students the ropes of riding. After my year of training, I took a job with an equestrian product company. I assisted in marketing, sale...More

I am a graduate of Mount Holyoke College, where I majored in French and served as president of Bellatrix Science-Fiction/Fantasy Club. I went on to earn my M.A. in French Literature at Rutgers University where I caught the teaching bug by tackling all aspects of instruction for two French 101 classes as a Teaching Assistant.

I am a rising sophomore at Kenyon College, a small liberal arts school an hour out of Columbus, Ohio, majoring in Philosophy. It is difficult to identify a specialty of mine because I have worked with students from 1st grade through high school on topics ranging from elementary science to trigonometry test prep, but my foremost strength is the three sections of the SAT. I have roughly three years of experience tutoring and last year taught a test prep class. My approach to tutoring is to identif...More
