As a teenager, I experienced just about as much academic failure as anyone. I know how much it hurts to struggle to get good grades. Around the age of 23, I discovered that the right environment made all the difference. I started working in a hospital and fell in love with medicine. Since then I've experienced a string of successes that I could have never imagined. I'll be graduating from the Ivy League this spring; I've worked in numerous prestigious hospitals and laboratories, but, most importantly, I've found a love for learning.My love for learning and experience with failure is what sets me apart from many of my peers. I've found that the resiliency needed to succeed through adversity requires a positive vision of the potential ahead. In my previous tutoring experiences, this is what I have projected onto my tutees. It's always netted a more successful and confident student.In my most recent experiences, I've discovered that the idea of talent or inherent intelligence is a myth. My fellow students are similar enough in academic ability, but what differentiates one student from another is the commitment to their respective studies. Thus, I try to demonstrate to my tutees by example that being a committed student doesn't need to be painful. It can be simple and fun. However, patience and compassion is crucial in guiding a tutee as they learn this invaluable lesson. The result pays for itself when a student can ultimately solve problems on their own and discover the tricks to build confidence.

While obtaining my first doctorate, I filled the role of senior prosector in the anatomy lab, a task typically reserved for elite anatomists, which created a powerful self-realization and redirected my life's objective. My purpose gradually presented itself while investing copious amounts of hours into thinking, studying, and working with cadavers. An innate artistic ability not only allows me to captivate detail but also to refine the hand motor skills necessary to execute meticulous dissections of human specimens.I aspire to produce work that will outlive me and live by the statement of Ben Franklin, "Either write something worth reading or do something worth writing." Trained in science, I objectify uncertainty from a logical perspective. My artistic side allows me to reveal answers to scientific questions from an imaginative angle. With these character traits, I am able to weave the web of the scientific literature.By fearing what we are inside, there is little hope in accepting anything beyond ourselves. While I am receptive to the aesthetic beauty that is available to everyone, I also attempt to reveal a greater beauty by understanding the wondrous design beneath the skin of the noble men and women who have donated their bodies to science.

I have been working in the mathematics field on a professional level for the past seven years. After college, where I obtained my bachelor's degree in English and Creative Writing in order to gain a new, fresh perspective on liberal arts culture and the humanities, I realized my academic focus was better suited for the study and education associated with math. I've loved math ever since grade school, and I found myself actually looking forward to coming home and doing my math homework! I soon realized that what I was doing was not only fun, but had a purpose. I understood that it defines and shapes the way in which we go about our business navigating through the world. My admiration for its profound impact in this manner has only become stronger over the years. We use mathematical logic to arrive at unassailable truths about the world, algebra in representing mathematical language, and probability to make educated guesses on given occurrences. It goes on and on! Working with math is a fun, unique experience that I enjoy very much.I graduated Binghamton University with a Bachelor of Arts in English Literature and Creative Writing. I then went on to Queens College, where I spent many years building my math credentials, taking undergraduate and graduate level courses in calculus, problem solving, math for business, and history of mathematics, to name a few. I entered into Queens College's graduate teacher education program, where I completed student teaching. I have hundreds of fieldwork hours in various schools observing teachers and colleagues at work, working on tutoring or group-organized instruction, and student teaching.I have worked in various summer camps over the years, and I work with students with special learning needs.

I'm excited to be your tutor! I recently graduated college in the top 10% of my class. I'm very familiar with what courage it takes to ask for help in a subject because I have gotten tutoring for a subject I struggled with. No one is perfect at everything, and learning how to ask for help will make you a stronger student and better prepare you for the real world. Self-improvement is what is most important here; not comparing yourself to others. I am a firm believer that the best way to learn is whatever works for YOU, and while finding those study techniques may take some trial and error, in the end, you will learn not only the subject you're being tutored in, but also more about yourself. I bet you'll find that you're better at that subject than you thought! No one is simply "bad" at a subject; it's just that they haven't found how that subject clicks with them yet. That's why I'm here!

Originally from Dallas, Texas, I graduated from Middlebury College in 2013 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in English and American Literatures with a focus in Creative Writing. Upon graduation, I moved to Thailand to complete a yearlong Fulbright grant teaching English as a Foreign Language to 10th and 11th grade students at a large, rural, public high school. I returned to the states in October 2014 and moved to New York City a month later. I’ve taught a wide array of subjects ranging from workshops on Creative Writing and Gender Identity at the Exploration High School Summer Program at Yale to Theatre classes with elementary school students in Madrid, Spain all the way to EFL and public speaking courses with Somali-Bantu refugees in Burlington, Vermont and have found that my strengths as a teacher lie in the subjects and practices of communication, editing, reading, writing, grammar and languages. I firmly believe in emboldening my students with strategies that will help unlock their own immense potential and look forward to working with your student to discover and tease out which tools will best serve them, whether it be when navigating the SAT or ACT or when attempting to write sonnets or personal essays for English class.

I have a great passion for learning, and look forward to sharing this passion with my students. I feel as if I succeed when my students do!

My name is Kelly and I'm a registered veterinary technician in Ohio! I have been working in veterinary medicine for 15 years. I graduated from an AVMA accredited school and passed the VTNE in 2017. I have experience in small animal general practice and emergency/critical care. I am a self proclaimed "vet med nerd" and LOVE teaching. Please reach out to me with your tutoring needs and we'll tailor a plan for you to pass the VTNE with flying colors.

I am a sophomore at Vanderbilt University in the College of Arts and Sciences, and I hope to graduate with bachelor's degrees in chemistry and English.I like to work with motivated students. I understand that, while test scores are an insufficient measure of a student's capability, high test scores can open a lot of doors in the college application process, and I want to see those doors open for my students. As I understand it, the best way to improve test scores is to do as many practice problems as possible. However, in standardized-test-taking there are many ways to work smarter, not harder. I like to work with students on pattern recognition and breaking down problems to their smallest component parts to make each problem more intuitive than the last.

My life has been spent in education, especially in the field of the medical sciences. I have been both the student and the professor for several years. Through these experiences I learned how to be a better student through teaching and a better teacher through listening to teachers. I hope to take the experiences, lessons, knowledge and passion I have gained over the years and pass it on to my students.

I've been fortunate to have spent half of my life living in South America and am therefore native bilingual in English and Spanish. I came to the United States to obtain my undergraduate degree from Brandeis University in Waltham, Ma. Six years later, I moved to Dallas, TX to work as an elementary school teacher in an urban school district. I've been here for ten years and have spent the entire decade working in education. I have taught all subjects and almost all grades in elementary school. In 2011 I graduated from Southern Methodist University with a Master's in Bilingual Education. In recent years, I have worked as an instructional coach and academic specialist, which has allowed me to look at education from a different lens and therefore given me a comprehensive look at curriculum and instruction.I am currently completing my principal certification and hope to pursue this goal in the near future. The rest of my time is spent with my wife and two children of 1 and 4 years. I played varsity tennis in college and continue to play locally.
