...Evanston, IL. I'm currently getting my degree in biology with a concentration in health and human disease, global health, and a minor in French. I love reading, traveling, learning and helping others learn! I have experience tutoring high school and elementary school students in math, science, and English and I love tutoring in each subject equally.

I am currently studying at Columbia University and am excited to help others reach their academic goals on Varsity Tutors.

I'm a Senior at Carnegie Mellon University, majoring in Civil Engineering. I love being outdoors, playing sports, watching movies, and ballroom dancing.

...and have tutoring experience extending over ten years behind me as well. I am most passionate about teaching because I love seeing people learn, grow, and become problem solvers and leaders of the future.

I'm originally from a small country in Eastern Africa called Rwanda but have been raised here...

...really love working one on one with students as I feel the uninterrupted time together yields better results. I like that I can dedicate my time and energy to one student, and I feel students respond better to this.

In my free time, I love to explore Colorado and all...

...and conferences including the National PTA Reflections Arts Program, the Scholastic Writing Awards, and the Southeastern Writing Center Conference. I particularly love tutoring writing, language, and literature because becoming better communicators and readers enhances students??? understanding of the world around them, ability to connect with others, and opportunities for self-expression. In a practical sense, improving this set of skills also raises verbal test scores and improves students??? marketability since communicating well is a vital skill...

I am a lifelong bookworm, proud owner of a "Grammar Police" T-shirt, and geek for fantasy and magical realism.

My most rewarding experiences have involved guiding struggling or unengaged students in finding their own talents as writers and learners. I...

...when assisted by a personal tutor. So I assist students when they are unable to meet with their teacher, clarify concepts the student needs more time on, explain concepts in alternative ways, and review the building blocks that the student needs to complete the tasks at hand. We'll work together so that your student gains skills and confidence. I've enjoyed working with preschoolers to middle schoolers, and high school students are a great group to...

...I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about History and Math. In my experience, students and I tend to have to most fun preparing for history by turning events into stories that seem a lot more interesting and thus rememberable.
