I have a PhD (Yale) in history and an MBA (UCLA) in finance. I have excellent writing and research skills, and have made extensive use of German and French -- spoken and for research. My work in finance has required skills with mathematics. I have taught university classes in finance and international economics. Another area of much interest, related to my background in history and public policy, is US constitutional law. I published a book on monetary history (*Gold, France, and the Great Depression*) , and a more recent book of essays on topics in economics and diplomatic history (http://books.ksplibrary.org/978-625-7501-75-0/ ) .... I have worked extensively on government-related projects, often in the greater Middle East. Effective tutoring should do more than impart techniques -- it should certainly do that -- it should help a student come away with some interest in and enthusiasm for the topic. (Soft evidence for the last is that my daughter earned a PhD in neuro-science, and credits me with inspiring her.)

I am a Board Certified Cognitive Specialist with an Advanced Certification in Child & Youth Mental Health. My degrees include a BS in Healthcare Administration and Psychology, and an AS degree in Architectural Technology. I am also completely my Masters in Instructional design, specifically related to accessibility for online learning. As an avid learner and adventurer, I love sharing my knowledge with children, teens and adults alike. Teaching, to me, is about learning how my student learns, understanding their strengths and challenges, and adapting my skills for their best outcomes, in a way that is both fun and comprehensive. I have worked in several countries and three continents teaching English as a second language. I am fluent in French through study and immersion in France, and I love sharing the language and culture with my students, whether for school or because they want to travel. I am certified as an ESL (English as Second Language) teacher and Enseignant de franais langue trangre (FLE) to teach French as a foreign language. I have developed an evidence-based program that is engaging and interactive with which I have successfully taught several teens and adults conversational French, grammar and translation. I volunteer as an advocate for individuals with neurodiverse challenges and mental health needs, and in my spare time I enjoy art, cooking, photography, and walking.

I've been an educator for over 30 years, high school and college, and I teach Spanish, French, English, and Photography at Varsity Tutors. I am a Vanderbilt graduate and I earned my master's degree at Texas A&M-Corpus Christi (Texas). I love working with words and I'm really good at explaining language structure. My love of languages naturally led me to travel the world, and I have been a practicing art and travel photographer for over 30 years. I can help you get started with your digital camera and have you taking professional-level pictures in no time!

I firmly believe that every student has the ability to achieve greatness. Any advice, word of encouragement, or assistance I can provide towards the student maximizing his/her potential makes the investment worthwhile. I was fortunate to get help along the way; why not turn around and do the same for others?!

I am a graduate of the University of North Texas with a bachelor's degree in Psychology. I have completed Master's coursework and research in the field of Educational Psychology, with a focus in Gifted Studies. I tutor many subjects, but I really enjoy teaching various math courses, Advanced Placement, History, and Language Arts. I have worked with students of all ages, from Pre-K to adults returning to education. I have a great deal of experience writing curriculum and tutoring test prep for SAT, ACT, ISEE, STAAR, and AP tests. Additionally, I have a strong passion for working with students who need support in applying for college (applications, essays, etc.). After studying abroad and 6 years of study, I have a strong interest in the French language and culture that allows me to provide tutoring for students taking French courses. In my experience as a tutor since 2013, I have cultivated a variety of tutoring strategies and methods to adapt to each student's individual needs. I feel that the key to helping a student master a subject is to start small, set goals, and find a method of learning that works best for them. In addition to my role as a tutor, I am also a substitute teacher and volunteer as a mentor with underprivileged middle and high schools. The majority of my free time is spent with my family. Often we enjoy outdoor activities, concerts and traveling.

As a second-year medical student with a strong foundation in science and a passion for education, I specialize in making tough subjects easier to understand. I excel in math, biology, physics, and other challenging topics that often intimidate students and I genuinely enjoy helping others master them. My approach combines patience, clarity, and high-level understanding to break down complex ideas into manageable, confidence-boosting lessons. Whether it's reviewing homework or prepping for exams, I'm here to support and motivate students at any level below mine to reach their full academic potential. My interests include: Weightlifting and fitness training (especially strength and hypertrophy programs) Morning cardio and physical conditioning Studying medicine with a focus on anatomy, physiology, and clinical problem-solving Teaching and tutoring tough academic subjects like math, biology, and physics Watching anime as a way to relax and recharge (especially after a long day) Cooking (with a focus on high-protein, keto/carnivore meals)

I come to tutoring and teaching with an eclectic background. I'm a dual citizen of France and the US, and grew up in Geneva Switzerland. I've worked with think tanks, governments, the World Economic Forum, and even on Wall Street. Trained in political science (BA, Harvard; MSc, London School of Economics), I have a passion for history and the French language. My goal is to meet you where you are on your learning curve, and with kindness and humour help you move closer to your goals.

I graduated from Dartmouth College with a double major, receiving a Bachelor of Arts in both Biochemistry/Molecular Biology and Music. I continued my education at Columbia University and received Master of Arts in Biology. Starting in middle school and continuing through my graduate career, I have tutored students in a wide variety of subjects, but I was most effective at tutoring math and science because of my lifelong love and aptitude for these subjects. Since I am also working towards a career in molecular biology, I use math and science every day, and I can explain real-world applications and uses for these subjects that may not seem obvious. By demonstrating the use of math and science in everyday life, I am able to help interact with the student and increase their interest in a subject in which they may experience difficulty. I also believe that as a tutor, it is my responsibility to engage with the student to help them achieve and even surpass their goals. In my spare time, I am heavily involved with music in New York City, being part of multiple choirs and continuing to play piano. I also enjoy exercising and exploring the city whenever I have the chance.

Hi everyone! My name is Gloria. I am a research assistant at Harvard Medical School. I majored in Biology and French double at Johns Hopkins University, having achieved my B.S. in 2022. I have been taking French for 6 years, and I am well versed in other subjects such as many levels of math, biology/life sciences, academic and creative writing. I am patient, compassionate, and I will work with you until you reach your goals. I am well versed in different teaching strategies that can be molded to fit to different learning styles; we can find the best that fits for you. I have experience teaching kids aged 3 to adults. Good luck in everything you pursue!

I recently started teaching through Varsity Tutors, and before starting here I have had extensive teaching experience both in and out of the classroom. I have taught ESL here in the U.S. as well as in Morocco, Nicaragua, and Spain, both to classes and in individual lessons. I have also taught Spanish and Italian, and practiced conversational French with interested students. I am passionate about seeing my students progress and gain confidence over the course of our lessons together, and I really enjoy getting to know them and their interests, which helps guide my teaching approach. I hope to inspire in my students a love for languages, music, and excellence in English writing, as these are things that I am most passionate about.
