Learning is fun! I believe that you can find enjoyment and interest in learning. I love to encourage students to tackle their various subjects and give them tools and teaching that will help them in their academic journey.My highest level of Education is a Masters Degree. In school and university, I mostly enjoyed research and writing, learning and studying for taking tests. In High School, I enjoyed helping my sibling and their friends study for the SAT exam. Later on, I encouraged and helped my younger cousins with their High School and College reports in varied subjects, as well as in writing their entrance papers for undergraduate and graduate school.I have had the privilege to spend the last three years tutoring homeschooled and public schooled students. One of my students had dyslexia and English as a second language. That student passed all his High School classes with A/B grades. I have also tutored Middle School Honors classes in Math, Science, Civics, Language Arts and writing.I so look forward to tutoring you and helping you reach your academic goals!

I'm a highly creative person who works best with visual thinkers. Very recently graduated from Stanford University, I majored in Human Biology with a concentration in Bioinformatics and Stem Cell Science. Technical though my background may be, I am currently gigging as a singer/songwriter/composer in NYC and tackle even the most hard-science of problems with a top-down, big-picture, holistic approach. If you have a propensity to look at problems in a cross- or inter-disciplinary manner (or want to learn how to do so), I'm the tutor for you!

I enjoy learning and discovering new things. I learn by seeing how things are done and then trying them myself. Also, it may take a couple of attempts before I get it right.I like to tutor in the same fashion by working in a collaborative fashion and demonstrating through examples. Completely understand that it may take a couple of iterations before someone understands the concepts.

I am a Finance and Information Systems Major at Indiana University. I have had experience tutor students in math and science courses in high school and more recently have tutored students in a business excel related course. I really enjoy helping students perform better in their classes. My favorite subjects to tutor are English and Math for ACT, Calculus, and Economics (Microeconomics and Macroeconomics). I believe the best way to tutor students is by helping them think through each problem or concept to get to the correct solution. In my free time, I enjoy hanging out with friends, learning about new technologies, and playing basketball and tennis.

I have had a passion for learning and teaching for as long as I can remember, and I believe that every child deserves the chance to succeed academically. I graduated from Williams College with a degree in history. Next summer, I will matriculate at Mount Sinai Medical School in New York City.I began tutoring elementary and middle school students while in high school. We worked on math, science, social studies, and English. During college, I spent a month as a teacher's assistant in a middle school English Language Learners' classroom in Portland, Maine. The summer after my freshman year at Williams, I spent three weeks in rural Tanzania teaching English to seventh grade students. This past summer, I spent eleven weeks at the same Tanzanian school teaching English to students in kindergarten through ninth grade.Everyone has a different learning style, so I am open to suggestions and flexible in my teaching style in order to ensure that each student is successful and reaches his or her academic goals. Tutoring can be a wonderful confidence booster for students, and I am eager to share my enthusiasm with my students. I look forward to working with and learning from students in the Atlanta area.

Megha
Admissions Tutor • +24 Subjects
Hi! My name is Megha and I am currently a graduate student at George Washington University. I went to college at NC State and majored in Biology and have a double minor in Anthropology and Psychology. During my time in college, I spent 4 years tutoring college students in Calculus and Chemistry. After I graduated, I went to St. George's University to get my MD. I have always aspired to be a doctor! During the pandemic, when schools went online, I found that a bunch of kids in my neighborhood needed help with their math homework. So I have experience in tutoring elementary, middle, and high school math as well. My favorite tutoring moments are when my student gets the "ah-ha!" Outside of school and hospitals, I like to play with my dog Simmba, read, watch TV, and paint. I look forward to working with you!

I enjoy teaching almost as much as I enjoy learning. My credentials include a Masters Degree in Elementary and Special Education, a Bachelors Degree in Behavioral Science (Psychology), Dual Pennsylvania Teaching Certification (Elementary and Special Education), and Brain Injury Specialist Certification from the Brain Injury Association of America. I have 4 years of formal teaching experience and 10 years of experience in positions that require excellent interpersonal skills (healthcare, psychology and education).I have enjoyed the opportunity to teach diverse groups of students, including those with a variety of learning, emotional, behavioral, and neurological disabilities, those who perform at or below grade level, and English Language Learners. I have collaborated with various treatment teams composed of teachers, social workers, psychologists, psychiatrists, and family-based services in order to better address students' needs. These experiences have helped me to become the balanced and caring educator I am today.My strengths include strong problem-solving skills, proactively assessing my classroom and students, creativity in motivating various types of learners and being flexible in various situations. I enjoy creating lessons that bring a multi-sensory approach to learning and accommodate students' varied learning needs. When preparing lessons, I take into account what motivates my students, what their interests are, learning styles and what challenges they face (if applicable). I believe that every person deserves to learn and to be challenged to reach his or her potential. I am passionate about supporting my students and teaching them to support themselves.Feel free to contact me with any questions, learn more about tutoring and schedule a lesson!

Frequently Asked Questions
A tutor provides personalized feedback on your writing that goes beyond what you might get in a classroom setting. They can work with you on the specific areas where you struggle—whether that's developing a strong thesis, organizing your ideas, strengthening your argumentation, or refining your writing voice. Through one-on-one instruction, tutors help you understand the "why" behind writing conventions, not just the rules, so you can apply these skills to future assignments.
Grammar is the foundation—correct punctuation, sentence structure, and word usage make your writing clear and professional. Style, on the other hand, is about how you express your ideas: your word choice, sentence variety, tone, and voice. A strong essay needs both. Tutors help you master grammar mechanics while also developing your unique writing voice, so your essays are not just correct but engaging and persuasive.
Writer's block often happens when you're trying to write the perfect essay on the first try. Tutors teach strategies like freewriting, outlining before drafting, or breaking the essay into smaller chunks so you're not facing a blank page all at once. They can also help you move from confusion about your topic to a clear thesis statement, which gives you a roadmap for the rest of your writing. Many students find that talking through their ideas with a tutor helps clarify their thinking before they even sit down to write.
Organization is where many essays fall apart. A tutor helps you build a logical structure by identifying your main argument, organizing supporting points, and ensuring each paragraph connects back to your thesis. They teach you how to create outlines that serve as blueprints, how to write topic sentences that guide your reader, and how to use transitions that show the relationship between ideas. With practice and feedback, you'll develop the ability to organize complex arguments clearly on your own.
Yes. Citation formatting can feel overwhelming, but tutors break it down into manageable pieces. Whether you need help with MLA, APA, or Chicago style, a tutor can show you how to cite sources correctly and help you understand the purpose behind proper attribution. They also help you integrate quotes and paraphrased material smoothly into your essay so citations feel natural rather than awkward—and your arguments stay strong.
Literary analysis requires you to move beyond just understanding what happened in a text to understanding how and why the author created meaning. Tutors help you develop close reading skills—identifying literary devices, understanding themes, and analyzing character motivation. They then guide you in translating these observations into a coherent argument with specific textual evidence. This turns your analysis into a compelling essay that shows deeper engagement with the material.
Revision is where good essays become great ones. Rather than trying to fix everything at once, tutors teach you to revise in layers: first looking at big-picture issues like thesis clarity and argument strength, then moving to paragraph organization and transitions, and finally polishing grammar and style. They also help you develop self-editing skills so you can evaluate your own work critically. With this strategic approach, you'll learn to revise efficiently and see real improvement in your writing.
