To be a great tutor, like any skill that I've tried to teach a student in these past four years, gets better with practice. I'm thankful to have attended a high school that allowed me the opportunity to offer academic support to my peers. There were no material incentives - the rewards were intrinsic. Thus, I learned to love teaching for its own sake. When I came to college, the opportunities only expanded. I was able to support myself through the first year of college on this skill alone. It continued to be something I enjoyed, and it ultimately led to me directing a tutoring program - the Let's Get Ready program, at my former high school. Now, I am excited to return to a hands-on teaching role, bringing to it all the insight I have gained over the years, from varying perspectives.

I am currently a 9th grade English Language Arts teacher. Prior to teaching, I attended Harvard College, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and a Secondary in Education Studies, and Harvard Graduate School of Education, where I completed my Master's in Education. Additionally, I have experience tutoring and mentoring students ages 6-14 at an afterschool program. I love spending my days exploring literature and writing with young people at school, and am excited to do so through tutoring, as well. Some of my favorite areas to explore with students include narrative writing, poetry, and the way literature can function as a way to achieve justice. Outside of the classroom, I enjoy cooking and baking, exploring nature, and running!

I am a recent graduate of Winston-Salem State University. While studying there, I received my Bachelor of Arts in English. I also studied French for three out of my four years at the University. My passion for English and writing blossomed throughout my matriculation as I became a student writing tutor, and certified through the National Tutoring Association. I am thoroughly excited to share my knowledge and passion of linguistics with students everywhere."The pen is mightier than the sword." -Edward Bulwer-Lytton

I obtained a Bachelor of Science in Pre-Clinical Health Sciences from The University of Central Florida, and a Master of Science in Speech-Language Pathology at Nova Southeastern University. I have practiced as a Speech-Language Pathologist in a wide variety of settings including clinics and private practices, and I now manage my own private telepractice serving the states of Georgia and California. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about Language Composition, Literacy, and Special Education. I enjoy working with children and caregivers to serve each individual's unique needs as they learn. I aim to provide the best quality of education to each of my students using practical hands-on approaches, in order to enrich their life and reach their highest level of potential. During my free time, I love spending time with my partner and two dogs (a Sheepadoodle and Labmaraner), traveling, going to dog parks, and baking delicious desserts.

I am currently a student at Trinity College Dublin in Ireland, and I am a graduate of Hunter College High School in New York City. I am a native speaker of both English and French. I have experience tutoring as a student intern in my senior year of high school, and as a private tutor for elementary school students. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I specialize in Reading, Writing, History, and conversational French. I try to impart my passion for education to students by vowing never to teach down to them, making learning fun, and stressing the importance of understanding over memorization. As your tutor, I will get you the results you want without imposing all that unnecessary stress. In my spare time, I like to read, cook, and spend time with my friends and my dog.

I recently graduated with a degree in Early Childhood Education from Kennesaw State University. I have been tutoring off and on for roughly the past year. I specialize in tutoring children who are between the ages of 5 and 12. Specifically, I am qualified to tutor students in Math, Language Arts, Science, and Social Studies. My preferences tend towards Science and Social Studies; however, I am more than proficient in each of the said subjects. I tend to prefer a hands on approach where I directly address the student's personal needs. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, working on computer hardware, and developing software.

I have recently graduated from the University of Pennsylvania in May 2013, majoring in Biochemistry and minoring in Mandarin Chinese. Since graduation, I have spent my time finishing premed requirements for my future applications to medical school, visiting my family in Italy, and privately tutoring students in New York City high schools. Having been raised in New York City myself, I have first-hand experience with the rigorous academic curriculums and standardized tests with which many New York City students are challenged. I feel passionate about imparting the academic knowledge and advice that I have cultivated during my studies to other students. I tutor a broad range of subjects, however, my passions are Biology, Chemistry and Math. During my free time, I enjoy reading and training for half-marathons.

Hello! My name is Summer and I'm a current MS1 at NYU Grossman School of Medicine. During my undergraduate studies at the University of Pittsburgh, I studied Spanish and Psychology with a minor in Chemistry and concentration in the biological sciences. I have a lifelong love of learning that I hope to instill in my students! In the past, I've taught Spanish, college level Biology, Physics, Biochemistry, Anatomy & Physiology, and Organic Chemistry, with experience spanning six years. For the last year and a half, I have been tutoring the MCAT. I scored a 520 - there have been issues adding it to my VT account but I can provide documentation for those who are interested!I love breaking down content and watching students synthesize it in a way that makes sense to them. There's no better feeling than watching that "aha" moment. Together, we can establish learning strategies on an individual level and build confidence in the subject of your choice!

I am a country mouse from New England who moved to the big city for college. I studied English at St. John's University in Queens and then put that knowledge to work for my Master's degree in Library Science (also at St. John's). Since I cannot imagine life without being in school, I'm now working on a post-graduate certificate in Education.By day, I'm a school librarian at a large Catholic high school in Queens, where I work and team up with teachers to help students learn about research and academic writing. I also work with students one on one to encourage reading and a love of books. I work frequently to help struggling readers find books that will help them gain confidence and make reading a part of their lives.I love my job; I am passionate about reading and writing. The best part of being a librarian is helping a student find just the right book - a book that will help to spark a lifelong love of reading in them. I firmly believe that the way to get better at reading is to read something you love, and good writers are avid readers too. I spend a lot of my day job coaching students through research-based papers, but it's always a great experience to work with other types of writing, from polishing a knock-your-socks-off college essay to work-shopping creative writing.Over the years, I've tutored at the high school, middle school, and college levels. I've worked with just about every subject, but my specialty really is in Reading and Writing. I love helping students with subjects I know they'll be using in every aspect of their lives. I remember in high school when writing a strong essay finally clicked for me - it was the best feeling in the world. Now, I get that same satisfaction from helping other people find a way to make writing click for them.I love New York and cannot imagine living anywhere else. I love to spend my free time in museums, shows, and just soaking up all of this fantastic city. The best part of New York? Taking the subway means I don't have to worry about keeping my eyes on the road, and instead I can keep them buried in a good book.

I graduated Cum Laude from the University of Rochester where I received a Bachelor's degree with double majors in History and International Affairs. I focused my studies on 20th Century European History and Global Security Policy. During college, I spent a semester in Brussels, Belgium, where I honed my French and ate far more chocolate than is ever advisable. After graduation, I moved to China, where I taught English to high school students and started a tutoring business for kids from ages 5-17. While I tutor on broad range of subjects, my favorites are history and French. I also love working with students on their writing and preparing for standardized tests. I take time to evaluate my students' individual learning styles and goals, and I craft my approach around their needs. There is nothing more rewarding to me than when a student's hard work is rewarded with a huge improvement or when they get the A on that essay we spent days perfecting. In my spare time I enjoy reading, traveling, snowboarding, and scuba diving.
