I graduated from the University of Toledo with an MD degree. When I was in high school, I attended the Science Mathematics Computer Science Magnet Program at Poolesville High School and took advanced courses in science, mathematics, and computer science. I attended the University of Maryland, where I obtained a Bachelor of Science in Biological Sciences.I have an extensive history of tutoring with students of all ages, ranging from elementary school students to graduate level students. When I was in middle and high school, I spent a couple of summers tutoring elementary school students in Mathematics and English. During my undergraduate years, I was a teaching assistant for Plant Biology course for nonscience students and Biological Sciences for Pre-med students.For the past 5 years, I have tutored for more than 110 hours in a variety of subjects, including Algebra, Geometry, Biostatistics, AP Human Geography, Anatomy, AP BC Calculus, AP US History, AP Biology, AP Chemistry, and Physics, just to name a few. I have also tutored Biochemistry to a medical student and undergraduate students.I believe it is important to adapt my teaching style to the subject matter and to the student's learning style.

Rishi
Algebra Tutor • +67 Subjects
I am a graduate of New York University. I received my Bachelor of Science in Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering with a focus on Process Engineering. Currently, I am working towards higher education degrees and starting my career as an Engineer. Helping others to learn and understand material has always been a passion of mine. Immersing myself in a rigorous Engineering curriculum, I found myself working closely with peers and classmates in understanding the subject material. During my time at New York University, I served as a tutor for the Tutoring Center at the School of Engineering working with individuals and groups from a variety of subjects corresponding to Engineering, such as mathematics, physics, life sciences, with a primary focus on Chemical sciences and Chemical Engineering coursework. As a part of the University outreach program, I had the opportunity to work with high school students and provide tutoring after school for local high schools in the area with respect to STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) subjects. I have a strong affinity for tutoring Math and Science materials. These subjects require strong problem solving skills. In my experience working with students in Standardized test preparation, we find the time spent on the Math portions to be the most enriching with results. T.H White once claimed 'Education is experience, and the essence of experience is self-reliance.' I hold similar values to T.H White with respect to the learning process. There is always something to learn, and the best way to accomplish this is to immerse one-self in the subject. Through continuous repetition and exposure, problem solving skills will be developed and we become more confident in handling the problems that we face. I also do not believe in the concept of failure, for mistakes we make can be used to learn and better ourselves. Outside of academia, I am a club soccer coach training and teaching the game to young children and adolescence. I enjoy keeping my brain and body active through puzzles, reading, exercise, and many sports specifically soccer and volleyball. I enjoy activities that induce progress, as I am always looking to better myself.
Victoria
10th Grade Reading Tutor • +20 Subjects
As a graduate of Princeton University (AB in Anthropology, Magna Cum Laude, 2012) and the University of Cambridge (MPhil in Human Evolutionary Studies, Highest Honors, 2013), I am well schooled in academic writing and reading comprehension; furthermore, I have honed my ability to write pointed, direct essays for both applications and classes. After studying French in high school, I went on to spend over six months in France working on archaeological excavations. As a previous educator for high school students, I am versed in different learning styles and can't wait to work with more. It sounds trite, but it's true--I love teaching, and consider it both a privilege and a real pleasure. I look forward to helping more students achieve their academic goals!

Algebra 2 Tutor • +3 Subjects
I received a BS in Electrical Engineering from Manhattan College, where I worked as a tutor in the Center for Academic Success. As a math tutor, it is my personal goal to make fractions less scary, I really enjoy taking higher level math concepts and make them accessible to those who feel like they will never understand them. I also want to encourage those who enjoy math to be curious and learn more than what their teachers teach.
Lily
Art Tutor • +12 Subjects
I graduated from the School of Visual Arts with a BFA in Cartooning and Illustration. I dedicate at least an hour (usually many more) each day to writing and illustrating comics. In addition to the arts, I am passionate about languages. I have spent much of the past three years to teaching myself Spanish. I pursued my interest in Spanish and language learning by receiving my TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) certificate in Guanacaste, Costa Rica. This experience broadened my worldview and gave me a greater insight into language learning.I have experience teaching a wide range of students, from new learners to intermediate and advanced. I have worked with students one on one, as well as with larger classes with a variety of learner types. My first priority is student understanding; to ensure that my students learn everything that they need to succeed, as well as when and how to use what they have learned.I believe that, aside from its everyday practical uses, second languages can offer new opportunities and experiences. It is my goal to share my language skills in an interesting and engaging way.

ACT Prep Tutor • +42 Subjects
I received a B.S. in psychology from Loyola University Chicago in May 2014 and am currently working as a lab manager for the Visual Cognition Lab at Northwestern University. I'm from Cincinnati, OH and love spending weekends there with my family. I'm planning on attending doctoral school for a PhD in Neuropsychology after a few years of working and traveling. I fell in love with Italy while studying abroad in Rome and will take any chance I can get to go back! When I'm not working, I enjoy visiting art museums and seeing musicals and plays. I was a peer tutor at Loyola for two years and have been a private tutor for the past year. It has been a very fulfilling experience and a skill I would like to continue developing. It is such a joy for me to see the light of understanding in my students' eyes and be able to track their progress and academic achievements. I love the challenge of catering to each person's learning style and finding what works best for them. Let's learn together and have fun doing it!

Frequently Asked Questions
In a classroom setting, teachers must balance the needs of 20+ students with varying skill levels and learning paces. Personalized tutoring allows a tutor to focus entirely on your strengths, challenges, and learning style. A tutor can spend extra time on areas where you struggle—whether that's essay structure, literary analysis, or grammar—and move quickly through concepts you've already mastered. This targeted approach typically leads to faster improvement and deeper comprehension than one-size-fits-all classroom instruction.
Students often struggle with several key areas: organizing thoughts into coherent essays, understanding complex literary themes and symbolism, managing time during timed writing assignments, and distinguishing between different writing styles for different purposes (analytical, creative, persuasive). Additionally, many students find it difficult to revise and edit their own work objectively, or to understand why their writing isn't achieving the grade they expected. A tutor can address each of these challenges with targeted strategies and ongoing feedback.
A tutor works with you on the entire writing process—from brainstorming and outlining through drafting and revision. They can help you develop a clear thesis, organize your ideas logically, support arguments with textual evidence, and strengthen your writing mechanics. Rather than just marking errors, tutors explain why certain choices are more effective, teach you to recognize patterns in your own writing, and guide you to become a more independent writer. Many students see significant improvements in essay grades within a few weeks of consistent tutoring.
A great English studies tutor should have strong knowledge of literature, writing mechanics, and composition across multiple grade levels. They should be able to explain complex concepts clearly, provide constructive feedback that helps you improve rather than discourages you, and adapt their teaching style to match your learning preferences. Ideally, they have experience with the specific topics or texts you're studying, and they can connect English studies concepts to real-world applications so the material feels relevant and engaging.
Many students notice improvements in their writing clarity and confidence within 3-4 weeks of regular tutoring sessions. More significant gains in essay grades and standardized test scores typically emerge over 8-12 weeks, depending on your starting point and how consistently you apply what you're learning. The key is consistent practice between sessions—tutors often assign targeted writing exercises or reading comprehension work that reinforces the strategies you're developing together. Your tutor will help you set realistic goals and track your progress along the way.
Yes. AP English and honors courses require students to analyze sophisticated texts, construct nuanced arguments, and write under pressure—skills that benefit greatly from personalized instruction. A tutor can help you understand the specific expectations of AP exams or your honors curriculum, teach you time management strategies for timed essays, and provide intensive practice with complex texts and literary analysis. They can also help you develop the critical thinking skills needed to move beyond surface-level interpretations to the deeper analysis these courses demand.
Strong reading comprehension and writing ability are interconnected. When you understand how authors structure arguments, use language effectively, and build meaning, you can apply those same techniques to your own writing. A tutor helps you develop both skills simultaneously by using texts you're reading to model strong writing, analyzing how authors achieve their effects, and then guiding you to use similar strategies in your own compositions. This integrated approach helps you become both a more discerning reader and a more effective writer.
