I have six years of tutoring experience as a private tutor, as well as on behalf of the National Honors Society and National Language Honors Society....

...Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Algebra 1 & 2, Geometry, Precalculus, Calculus, SAT Math. I also taught Math for K 8th grade. From my experience at the Sunflower Learning Academy, I just started tutoring all ages in the Math & Sciences. The most important element for any child's self esteem is identity. We live in a society that embraces all cultures. Every child should be appreciated for who they are and what they can contribute to the American...

...enjoy seeing my students become increasingly more confident in their academics. As a patient, personable, and enthusiastic tutor, my philosophy on teaching has always been that fun is the best motivator. Learning should be an enjoyable and enriching experience. I also believe that answers should not be readily given. To truly grasp a subject material, students need to engage their critical thinking and problem solving skills throughout the learning process. No one ever said that...

I recently graduated from Brown University with a degree in American History. I have extensive experience tutoring students to prepare for the SAT and SAT subject tests in US History and Literature, as well as teaching and tutoring students of all ages in after-school programs and religious school. I'm excited to work with you or your child either on standardized test preparation or on generally improving performance in history, English, and social studies!

I am a PhD in Experimental Condensed Matter Physics and Material Science. I have good research experience working with types of advanced material and instruments. I have good teaching experience and have been teaching for more than 10 years. I love to teach and feel happy when my students get a bright future.

I'm a recent PhD graduate in Bioengineering in the Boston area. My thesis involved nanoparticles and bacterial infections, but as a biomedical engineer I've had training in circuits, mechanics, some programming, chemistry and biology. Tutoring for me is a collaborative effort, following a problem-based learning with questions that will lead the student towards the answer they're looking for while providing a well-rounded understanding of why and how that answer works.

Teaching is my passion. When I am not tutoring for Varsity Tutors, I work in medical research. I love the idea of helping patients feel better and especially kids. If I had to say something about my outlook, it is that I am thankful for what I do, privileged to be part of so many lives, and hopeful that my skills will make a difference.

...but rewarding nevertheless. My curiosity on how the world around us works drove me. This engineering path also gave me the opportunity to participate in my first internship. Last June through August 2014, I had the opportunity to work as a Facilities Mechanical Intern for CH2M Hill; there, I discovered that I am great working with others and can naturally assume a role of leadership. Throughout my education, I have gained great value in the...

...Engineering from the University of Massachusetts. During my studies, I spent a year tutoring student-athletes in Chemistry, Physics, Math and Engineering. Earlier in my schooling, I spent two years as a camp counselor and a year regularly babysitting, so mentoring has always been a part of my life. I also have experience as a part of the Best Buddies organization during high school, and so I have some experience with special needs students as well.

I am a recent graduate from Wentworth Institute of Technology in Biomedical Engineering. As I am applying to medical school, I am currently a research assistant at Harvard Medical School in the neurobiology department. I have a very solid background in math and physical sciences. I love to use real life examples in my tutoring examples and I can't wait to connect.

...has been spent studying first physics, then finance, as well as serving as a US Naval Officer. Of all the positions I've held, I've found helping students with math and physics to be one of the most gratifying and fulfilling experiences. I've been both the smartest, and not so smartest student in different classes so I like to think I have experienced the full spectrum of needing and giving help. I look forward to helping...

...Science in Computer Science from the University of Michigan. Next year I'll begin working towards a Masters in Computer Engineering. I have experience tutoring my peers, both formally and informally, in high school and college in subjects ranging from CS to calculus to biology. I most enjoy teaching STEM subjects, as they were my favorite in school, but I just like tutoring as a whole. It's satisfying to see the moment when it clicks for...

I am an experienced teacher and tutor, with over a decade of varied experience. I have taught elementary through adult learners in subjects ranging from basic math, reading, and writing skills to ACT/SAT prep to higher level mathematics. I have taught in classrooms, in learning centers, and at students' homes. Students have told me that I explain things clearly and in easy to understand ways.

...learn a subject/topic) as well as beneficial for me (with reinforcing my knowledge, learning a topic I'm unfamiliar, and/or improving my teaching abilities). One of my goals as a tutor for Varsity Tutors is to teach subjects I'm passionate about, such as chemistry, to students who are interested in the topic but need some extra help. I have had wonderful tutors in the past help me in various subjects and believe I'm now at a...

Learning isn't always easy; in fact it's often uncomfortable. This means it's possible to find meaning even in classes we hate or the ones we think we are bad at. For this reason, I hope to work with learners who might be uncertain about their interests and futures.

...Spanish. The beauty of language and its power are so wonderful. I am extremely passionate about biology, chemistry, math, and language. I have learned a great deal thus far, and really want to help others along their learning journeys! I firmly believe that with the proper guidance, we all possess the abilities to grasp and master complex topics such as calculus, chemistry, and Latin! During my free time, (outside of the laboratory) I enjoy reading...

...Ph.D. degree in Mechanical Engineering from University of Texas. I have extensive background and experiences in several fields including Mathematics, Physics and Engineering. I am interested in sharing my knowledge with students, in helping them understand the subject and solving problems. I believe a good tutor can provide guidance, leading students through a thought process in solving problems. A good tutor will motivate the student to think and propose his or her own solutions and...

...departmental offices offering academic support on a drop-in basis. In college I also enjoyed tutoring my friends when they wanted some extra academic support. My passion is for mathematics and the sciences: as an engineer I have a deep appreciation for how theory in textbooks translates into real world applications. In my experience, the most important component of the tutor/student relationship is the tutor's ability to inspire and to broaden the student's imagination.... This answer strongly...
