I am a third year medical student at Wayne State University tutoring math and science. I graduated Summa Cum Laude from Stony Brook University with a major in Biochemistry. I first developed my passion for teaching from 7 years of experience as a martial arts and boxing instructor. I was able to develop my tutoring skill during my time at Stony Brook where I worked as both a calculus tutor and a chemistry teaching assistant. Yes, I am a nerd but you will find that I am very personable and really care about helping students reach their full potential!

I am an undergraduate student studying Neuroscience and Religion at Emory University. I've been tutoring for over three years, and I have extensive experience tutoring math all the way from Algebra 1 to Calculus 2. I am extremely passionate about helping students understand and love what they are learning, and in my experience, my tutoring style of focusing on the underlying concepts of a subject has been very successful. I find students that are able to critically apply what they have learned to new problems are the most successful, and I strive to make every one of my students adopt this mentality. I love getting to know my students on a personal level, and speaking to them about my love for undergraduate research, dancing, and sports!

I am currently a postdoctoral associate at Yale University conducing research in genetics/neuroscience. Throughout the years I have had many opportunities to interact with and train students. Specifically, as a graduate student I have had experience as a teaching assistant for general biology and advanced genetics lab courses, and have also tutored high school students in AP chemistry. Hopefully as a tutor for VT I can make STEM courses more approachable and rewarding for high school and undergraduate students.

San Jose State graduate with a BS in Biology, Systems Physiology (Minor in Chemistry). I moved here from San Francisco, CA. to pursue Clinical Laboratory Science here in Phoenix, AZ.I have tutored since I was in high school. I began coaching chess in various elementary schools in the area. During the summer I coach students to enter into competitive math competitions and prepare middle school students for the SATs. I entered a program for No Child Left Behind and mentored at-risk students in various grades, mostly focused in a high school setting. My main focus is to build on independent learning and mentor students to become proactive members of the community. I founded a nonprofit organization in college called SeriousFun and that laid the foundation to be positive and active members in the community. I believe strongly that any student of mine can be a leader and become accountable, optimistic, and confident.

Hello everyone, I'm Salma! I'm a Chemistry graduate from New Jersey City University. I worked as an online ESL teacher online for 2 years teaching English to Chinese students. I'll be tutoring Science, Math, and English. I am so excited to meet you. I can help with you with anything you need.

I taught college English composition courses for eight years, so I have a firm grasp of the expectations of student writing at this level. I have also tutored ESL students in SAT prep and college application essay writing. As a former Fulbright grantee, I understand the importance of a clear and concise personal statement as the cornerstone of a successful application. My academic specializations include written and visual rhetoric, academic and creative writing, and 19th century British literature.

I am a graduate of Middlebury College. At Middlebury I double majored in Economics and History and minored in Spanish. Since graduating over four years ago, I have held two very different jobs! Directly after graduating, I served as a Youth Developement Peace Corps Volunteer in Peru. For two years I lived with a host family in the Andes Mountains and developed sustainable programs in preventative healthcare and education!After Peace Corps I helped launch a technology startup in New York City that partnered with taxi drivers. I absolutely love tutoring and sharing my passion for a variety of subjects including math, history, economics and Spanish! I have extensive experience tutoring all ages, including adults and my approach is collaborative, individualized, and fun. In my free time, you'll find me reading an American History book, running in Prospect Park or finding music with my friends!

Hi, my name is Ali Valentine, and for the longest time I can remember, I have had a passion instilled in me for learning. This passion is something that my teachers helped me foster through all my steps of education, and I would love to give back by helping your children foster their skills. Knowledge is power, and I want your children to head out into the world with all the power inside of them unleashed in their academic pursuits.

From a young age I knew I was destined to teach. I have always enjoyed reading, writing, and learning in any context and have a desire for knowledge.Upon graduating college, I decided that my passion and career path would center around learning and passing on the knowledge I have acquired from my schooling, work, travel, and general life experiences.Taking a non-traditional path, I began my career in education by teaching English as a second language in South Korea. I broadened my horizons both professionally and personally over my time in the country.Upon returning to the United States, I followed a more traditional path by entering the private sector by accepting a position in the loan department at PNC Bank. After only a few short months, I was appointed a trainer and mentor to new employees, restarting my teaching career in an unusual way. Passing my wisdom onto other employees every day reignited my passion for teaching.Since leaving the bank, I have being pursing my dream as an educator. I have tutored 1-on-1, taught classrooms of both adults and children, and even enjoying training my dog, Shiloh, away from work.I will use my experience, education, and enthusiasm to help you along your academic journey. Every session, I will give you 110% to help reach your goals, and we will have fun along the way.

I recently graduated cum laude from New York University with a double major in Psychology (with honors) and Philosophy, in addition to a Creative Writing minor. In the next few years, I intend to continue my education by pursuing a doctorate in Clinical Psychology. In my free time, I generally prefer to spend it writing, cooking, and playing guitar.As the son of two public school teachers, I quickly learned to recognize the value of a quality education, and the far greater value of using one's knowledge to help others. After taking assorted private tutoring jobs throughout high school to earn some pocket money, I worked in the College Learning Center and as a academic tutor at the Salk School of Science during my time at NYU to help with the cost of tuition.While I feel confident in my ability to help students excel in a variety of subjects, I personally find it most rewarding to work with teenagers preparing to apply for college. This period can be extremely important for a young person's future success, and I know firsthand how overwhelming the pressure to succeed can get when you feel like you have to face it alone. With my passion for writing, I can aid my charges in overcoming character limits and the discomfort of talking about themselves, allowing their personal statements to express their best selves in an eloquent and concise manner. For standardized testing, I can use my experience to provide tips not only to improve vocabulary, reading and math skills, but also about how to deal with the unique problems caused by the nature of these tests.Regardless of one's individual learning needs, I believe that calm, patient guidance and unwavering encouragement can benefit any student. Whatever assistance you may need, I am here to help.
