...lifelong learner and teacher. I am certainly learning a lot in school right now, and am achieving my goal of teaching through tutoring. I believe the key to teaching is in strong communication skills and creativity. I understand that every learner has a different style and different needs, so I try to use creativity to come up with fun new ways to learn material. In the past I have made interactive games, songs, and helped...

...prefer to take a relaxed take on tutoring to assure the students comfort. Last summer I was an intern at the European Parliament in Brussels, and was fortunate enough to be able to travel on weekends. Traveling sparked some wanderlust, while the political work inspired a bitterness towards the subject and helped eliminate "local politician" off my long list of possible careers. I am bilingual, Polish being my first language, and proficient in Spanish. I...

...am a Princeton University graduate, currently based in Brooklyn, NY. I first began tutoring during college, where I worked with students on reading and writing skills and Spanish language. With Varsity Tutors, I am available to tutor these subjects, including college application essay writing, essay editing, and study skills and organization, as well as French and music theory. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy listening to music, singing, translating, and learning new languages (I am currently...

...I have been a student teacher in six different classrooms ranging from K-5 throughout my time in college and have taught every subject ranging from reading and writing to science and math.

I look forward to hearing from you soon!

...I am a senior at St. Joseph's College in Patchogue, NY majoring in History and Secondary Education. I have been tutoring on and off for the past three years. What I've learned the most is that there is no one size fits all approach and each student deserves specific time and energy devoted to them. In my spare time I enjoy reading, riding my bike, hanging out with friends, and playing or watching baseball.

...Reading Comprehension and History. In my experience helping struggling students I have found that meeting students at their level is most important for information retention and gaining an appreciation of a skill or subject. For example, if a young student hates to read novels but loves comic books I will work comic books into their reading time to get them to appreciate reading at all. I am a firm believer in the power of education...

...schools Academic Team! Now an adult, I have used my love of school to teach and tutor students of all ages! (I also crush it in trivia ;) My approach to teaching is very personalized to each student.

When I'm not tutoring, reading, or writing, you'll most...

...diagrams and visual aids in my teaching. In addition, since high school, I have always been someone that friends entrust to look over and critique their papers before they submit final drafts. My teaching style features visual learning, mnemonics, and hierarchical organization of material. I find that hierarchically cataloguing information by topic and sub-topic helps students retain material, as students are not simply memorizing, but are understanding how concepts relate to one another. More personally,...

I love reading and writing and want to make it your passion too! Let me show you how fun the world of words can be. Hey, since we have to live on this rock, we might as well spend it exploring all the universes we can through reading and writing!

I try to apply what I've learned in my coursework to my students and aim to keep...

My role in your study will be to help you find the small components in a problem and tackle each one, and provide a patient voice of encouragement for you. If you...

...geography. I also follow international events very closely. I see these subjects as different facets of the great story of human history. It is impossible to truly understand the modern world without a grasp of centuries of history as well as the political theories that inform our view of society. Furthermore the history of a culture is written in its language. Without a knowledge of geography there is no way to contextualize any of this....

...I know and my own writing style in a new light. When I went on a semester abroad to Paris, I reached out to a volunteer group to help children in need of extra academic assistance and tutored students in Geography, Math, Science and English. This particular experience was extremely beneficial as I learnt how French students are taught and expanded my knowledge of education worldwide. Since then, I have taught students in and around...
