I have a Master of Business Administration from McMaster University and a Bachelor of Science, majoring in Nutrition and Food Sciences from the University of Alberta. I also have a TEFL certificate for teaching English as a Second Language (ESL) from Global TESOL. Since graduation, I have worked in the public and private sectors as a Business Consultant, including government, health care, and banking. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about ESL, Math, and Science. In my experience helping students, it is most rewarding when we go through challenging areas that the students are aware of and turn weaknesses into strengths. I am a firm proponent of education, believing it to be absolutely necessary for an improved quality of life, and I try to impart this appreciation to all of my students. In my spare time, I enjoy reading which enriches my life, cooking, hiking, and swimming.

Hello, I am a student at UIUC majoring in Physics/Math and with plenty of experience teaching various STEM subjects such as math, science, CS, etc. As a student myself, I understand the many struggles of other students like me and I tailor my teaching styles to meet these needs. As someone who feels very strongly about our current education system, I've become strongly motivated to change the status quo by reaching as many students as I can through tutoring/teaching. As an aspiring physicist, mathematician, or maybe both, I wish to make these subjects fun and interesting like how I perceive them to be, instead of a grueling discipline that students have the get through. Outside of academia, I also love listening to music and have been a musician for the majority of my life.

I graduated from Oberlin College in May 2019 with majors in mathematics and East Asian Studies. While I was a student, I worked in a drop-in tutoring center, helping my classmates with math and chemistry. During my junior year, I tutored a high school junior in algebra, and I am currently tutoring a middle school student in Mandarin. Tutoring is something I genuinely enjoy. I like helping people. I empathize with my tutees because I know what it is like to struggle with a new concept; I know what it is like to not understand something you feel you should understand. These are difficult experiences with which I am personally familiar. Thus, my main motivation for wanting to be a tutor is to help people overcome these difficulties and feel good about themselves in the process. An added bonus is the reward of better understanding the material I am teaching. Given that I have experience tutoring both math and Chinese, these are the subjects I am most comfortable teaching, specifically middle school and high school level math and beginning to intermediate Mandarin. That being said, I would be uncomfortable tutoring an absolute beginner in Mandarin because I believe pinyin and tones are best taught by a native Chinese speaker. In addition to math and Chinese, I would enjoy tutoring writing and English. Outside of academics, I have a number of hobbies. I love doing ceramics and have been taking classes since I was eight years old. I mostly do hand-building and have gone through a number of phases. When I was very young, most of the ceramic sculptures I made were dragons because I was obsessed with them. When I first began studying Chinese in high school, I made ceramic tiles with Chinese characters on them. Most recently, I have been making ceramic lotuses and sunflowers. Origami is another craft I enjoy. It is a fun, relaxing, and portable activity as folding paper can be done virtually anywhere.

I recently graduated from the University of Pittsburgh summa cum laude with a BS in Psychology. I have been tutoring with Varsity Tutors for over 5 years with over a hundred students. I'm excited to work with your student!

I am an MD candidate at Rutgers-Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, class of 2027. I graduated from the Honors College of Rutgers University-New Brunswick in May 2022, earning a B.A. in Cell Biology and Neuroscience with Honors and minors in Philosophy, Chinese, and Music. As a 100 percentile scorer on the March 2022 MCAT, I am able to help students prepare for the exam, and have particular strengths in CARS, psychology/sociology, biochemistry, and biology. My passion for tutoring comes from a love of being able to help students achieve their full potential, and I approach each student uniquely based on their levels of understanding and individual ways of learning. I would love to provide tutoring in any of the subjects listed in my profile, and look forward to working with you!

I got my undergraduate degree in political science in Nanjing University in China and psychology in Georgia Institute of Technology, master's degree in International Affairs in Georgia Institute of Technology. I have been tutoring K12 students math and language arts and GRE test preparation for 7 years. My favorite subject is the GRE test prep and Mandarin Chinese. My tutoring is based on student capabilities and tailored to their age differences. I like to read and listen to audio books, I love young children of different ages. Cooking and baking is my another hobby. Sometimes I enjoy to cook together with my children, or play video games like Minecraft with them. I love music of a large variety of genres, playing piano to relax myself. My class is usually filled with fun games with children and occasionally even their siblings join us to practice speaking Chinese, English or Russian.

I'm a Ph.D in theoretical physics at Baylor University. I'm exceptional at both physics and mathematics(college and graduate level). I had over 5 years teaching experience. I'm good at help students understand fundamental concepts and build their own problem-solving skills.

Both Master(UPenn) & 2 Bachelors(UCI) degree in Education An engaging teacher, turning language learning into a joyous adventure with a sprinkle of patience, a dash of encouragement, and a whole lot of fun!

As a passionate educator with graduate degrees from Oxford and Columbia, I specialize in Chemistry, Genetics, and also conversational Mandarin. With over two years of tutoring experience, I strive to create a supportive learning environment tailored to each student's needs. My teaching philosophy emphasizes the importance of connecting concepts to real-world applications, fostering a love for learning. Beyond academics, my interest in cultural anthropology enriches my perspective and enhances my teaching methods, allowing me to connect with students on multiple levels. I am passionate about empowering students to achieve their academic goals and develop a lifelong love of knowledge.
