I am a Cornell University student, and plan to major in Computer Science. Technology is my main passion. I've developed apps and websites, and have taught a programming class to elementary school students, and I plan to tutor computer science and programming.Besides tech, I also like reading, and have a particular knack for the English and Reading portions of the ACT and SAT. My philosophy for test taking success is to know the base material required to answer the questions, know the tactics to optimize approaches to questions, and to do practice problems and rigorously review mistakes. I aim to tutor students in the ACT and SAT using this philosophy, helping them approach it efficiently.Outside of these areas, I also enjoy playing soccer, playing tennis, and traveling.

Hey students!My name is Jordan and I am excited to virtually meet you through VarsityTutors. I recently graduated from Miami University with my Bachelor of Science in Geology and Environmental Studies. I have always had a passion for the planet and how we can create science-based solutions to the world's most pressing environmental issues. Between my coursework, research, and peer-reviewed journal publications, I am confident that we can work together to improve your understanding of environmental sciences and geology-related concepts.If you are looking for an LSAT tutor I am eager to help there as well. I decided to take the path to become an environmental lawyer and spent 3-4 months strategizing and preparing for the rigorous exam process that is the LSAT. I was not a "natural" but through intelligent strategizing and deciphering the test, I was able to increase my score by 22 points from my first diagnostic test. This placed me into the 92nd percentile of test-takers and in conjunction with application essays and other materials, allowed me entry into the country's Top 20 law schools. If you are hoping for similar results, let's work together and design strategies that achieve your goals!Essay writing and editing is an additional skill of mine. Whether for scholarships, admission essays, grant applications, or simply your elementary English paper we can work together to find a style that suits you and conveys your message in a sophisticated and clear way.Feel free to message me with any questions you may have :)

I am a senior in the College of Education at Marquette University. I will be graduating in May, and plan to become an elementary school teacher. I love to teach, and am very focused on the idea of a differentiated classroom that works for all students and types of intelligences. This carries over into tutoring, and I am all for approaching content in different ways in order to find the best fit for my students.

I graduated from the Bronx High School of Science and am a current student at the University of Chicago, majoring in mathematics with a minor in visual art. Throughout high school, I tutored both on a volunteer and private basis. I love tutoring because of the ability to help students understand difficult concepts they're struggling with, and I enjoy trying to find different ways to break down ideas. My favorite subjects to tutor are calculus, chemistry, and physics, although I tutor other types of math as well. I am a very patient tutor who tries to understand exactly where the student is struggling and how they can improve. Outside of the classroom, you can often find me baking or drawing!

I am a current PhD candidate in experimental geophysics at MIT. I have successfully tutored dozens of students for the GRE; these students report not only higher scores but deeper understanding of the material, even in areas they have struggled with for years. Many of my students have not taken relevant quantitative courses for years and have forgotten much of their fundamental math skills, but after working with me for a short time, they are able to achieve great GRE quantitative scores. Students also enjoy my approach to the verbal section, where we work on decoding the questions and narrowing answer choices based on the type of question. I focus on a strong understanding of the concepts being tested as well as on test-taking skills. After working together, all of my students feel more comfortable entering the exam and sure of their own abilities, and nearly all of my students end up meeting or exceeding their original score goals.

I am a student at the University of Wisconsin - Madison majoring in Spanish and Biology. Outside of school I volunteer at a hospital and enjoy running and being outdoors. I have had a lot of experience tutoring high school students in calculus, spanish, science, many levels of math and english. I love to learn and I want others to enjoy learning as well. When helping others it is imperative to me that the student truly understands a concept and can reason through a problem independently. I will do everything I can for a student to understand a concept by simplifying a concept to aid in understanding. I can not wait to help others enjoy learning and gain reasoning skills that will help them in the future.

I am a graduate of Allegheny College, where I received my Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry and minored in English. I am currently enrolled at the City University of New York, where I am working as a graduate student for a PhD in biochemistry. I mostly tutor science and math, both of which I enjoy thoroughly. My goal as a tutor is to help my students in understanding and gaining interest in the subjects instead of pure memorization. In my spare time I enjoy ice hockey, skiing, and mountain biking.

It is my personal goal to instill confidence, encouragement, goal setting, provide support, and push students toward their personal growth for the present and for the future.

Here to hep with understanding Math, Science, and Mechanical Engineering! I'm also great at explaining the real world context behind what students are learning and how they'll use it in the future.

MS Candidate Exercise Physiology, University of KentuckyBA Exercise Physiology & Public Health Sciences, Hamline UniversityHello! My name is Ali Eastman andI am a current graduate teaching assistant at the University of Kentucky. My research at Kentucky is focused on injury mitigation in firefighters. I have undergraduate and graduate course work in anatomy and physiology, exercise physiology, performance analytics, and research methods. I have previous undergraduate course work in intro biology, algebra-based physics, genetics, and cell biology. In addition, I have experience in scientific writing as well as grant writing.My teaching philosophy is focusing in on overreaching concepts and then peeling back the layers of the material. I am a strong believer in meeting the student where they are at academically and adapting to their learning style.
