Hello! My name is Dana and I'm a post-bac student at Goucher college. I recently graduated from Northeastern University with a Bachelors of Science in computer science and mathematics. I have tutored mathematics and SAT math preparation for multiple years and have participated in peer-tutoring at Northeastern. I love solving problems, being outdoors, and dancing!

I am a licensed Math Teacher for grades 5-12 in Massachusetts, and have I have extensive experience working with students of all grades and academic levels. I graduated from Vanderbilt University with a B.S. in Mathematics and Secondary Education, and have worked as a private tutor, classroom teacher, and full-time tutor for all grades K-12.

I am a high school graduate currently taking a gap year before entering college at Stanford University. I am extremely passionate about strengthening students' writing skills. I believe that being able to articulate oneself in writing is critical no matter what path a student chooses. As a lifelong learner, I strive to inspire that same passion for education in my students and find what subjects excite them!

I received my Bachelor of Arts in English and Spanish from Howard University and worked as an educator and as a communications administrator for several years post college. During my career as a communications administrator, I enrolled at Massachusetts College of Art and Design in pursuance of my Fashion Design Certificate. My education from MassArt inspired me to become a wardrobe consultant and to found A Balanced Wardrobe LLC. Though I've transitioned from academia to business and fashion, I still rely heavily on my reading and writing skills. These skills transcend all professions, as they are fundamental to our ability to learn and to communicate effectively on paper and in-person. During my years in education, I engaged with many students who struggled in reading and writing, and typically, these same students struggled in other subjects; in math they struggled to read word problems and in science they struggled to write their lab results. Working with these students gave me first-hand experience at how to help students strengthen their comprehension without hurting their confidence. Over time, I found that patience, consistent positive reinforcement and persistent redirection are key, and it is these same techniques that I utilize with my Varsity Tutors students. Without reading and writing skills, I would have never been able to traverse so many different fields and discover my passion, and through tutoring, I hope to help my students achieve the same.

I am a graduate of UMASS Amherst and have a degree in Kinesiology. As a second degree black belt in Karate and an aspiring novelist, I combine a strong work ethic, unflinching morality and loyalty with the creative aspects of freelance tutoring. I treat every assignment, test prep and student I work with as intensely as the last. Just as I will one day best my opponents and claim the title of the greatest Karate practitioner who's ever lived, I will fight tooth and nail to develop and share my tutoring prowess with the world!I am a total nerd, but love to experience the world and it's inhabitants in a very profound and involved way. My strongest subjects are exercise science, nutrition, physical therapy, geography, psychology, writing of any kind, and history. I am a quick learner, however, and am always willing to test and educate myself in preparation for tutoring others.Finally, I possess addictions to travel, exercise and discovery. I detest laziness and want everything I create and experience to be the most magnificent it can possibly be. This is shown, at times, subtly or boisterously in the thriller I've been writing for three years. My self-prescribed deadline for the book is August 31st 2020.
