1st Grade Tutor • +76 Subjects

I am currently a Master’s candidate at Seton Hall University pursuing my M.A. in Diplomacy and International Relations. I graduated in 2013 cum laude at Virginia Commonwealth University with a B.A. in Political Science, and I minored in both Economics and Religious Studies. My academic strengths include:Writing - I am proficient many forms of academic writingHistory - I am expected to understand the political climate, government structure, and contemporary history of as many countries as I can handleStandardized test prep - I myself have taken many standardized examsOther social sciences - I took every AP social science course offeredI first started tutoring when I myself was in high school; helping the local middle school students with the homework they were most struggling with. I have two siblings who are now in high school turning to me for tips to succeed. I have also recently helped a number of my frightened peers practice and plan for their GREs. I understand the patience and the process involved in helping someone find their confidence and their mechanisms for success when approaching any subject material.My hobbies include reading. I read in parks, in cafés, on my couch, on vacation. To me, reading is the biggest luxury, and my favorite activity. When I am on break from school, I read nearly every day. Occasionally I also enjoy walking around the mountains and going to events in the city.

I recently graduated from Rice University with a triple major in Biochemistry & Cell Biology, Psychology, and Ecology & Evolutionary Biology. I will be attending Baylor College of Medicine in a few months to pursue a MD degree. I am also an avid cellist.I have been tutoring since my junior year in high school (6 years tota) and love teaching at all levels. I have a composite 2180 SAT and 34S MCAT score and received all "4/5"s on 7 different AP exams and was listed on Rice University's "President's Honor Roll". I know how hard and stressful it is to take standardized exams, as I myself have gone through it all, and this has motivated me to want to help make the process easier for those who are going through it. I am also very knowledgeable with college and medical school applications and will be happy to help go through the entire process and review essays. As listed above, I used to be a competitive cello player under the guidance of 2 Houston Symphony cellists and can give cello lessons if requested.I love animals and visiting museums, parks and zoos.Classical music is one of my greatest passions and I am very interested in the natural sciences. I hope to become a pulmonary pediatrician.

I am a positive, energetic, and upbeat person by nature. I love teaching others and learning more about the world around me. I attended Beloit College (Go Bucs!) in Beloit, Wisconsin where I received my BA in History and submitted an Honors Thesis. The year after graduation I spent teaching English to university students in Kaifeng, China. I then went back to school and got my Masters in Communication from Hawaii Pacific University. While pursuing my Masters I was a Math and Reading tutor, and I worked for my university's magazine, writing and editing articles for quarterly publications.I tutor SAT, History, Math, Reading, Writing, English Literature. History is definitely the subject I enjoy tutoring the most, as it was my major and a continued passion of mine. I'm even in the process of writing a historical novel!I grew up in Hawaii, and I love being outdoors with my wife and two dogs. We all live in Spokane, WA now, where the scenery is beautiful and there's an always adventure awaiting around every tree and mountain. In my free time I enjoy reading, writing, playing soccer and tennis, and just relaxing with my family.

Every year the knowledge base of the world increases dramatically. More than just adding to the cumulative knowledge of the past, some would say that information is increasing at an exponential rate. Currently, students are being asked to absorb this information; often without a proper structure or guidance as to how this can be accomplished. Having already made this journey myself, I am very excited to join Varsity Tutors and to help motivated students in their quest for a meaningful role within society.

College English Tutor • +22 Subjects

Hello, I am a recent graduate of the University of Washington where I received my Bachelor's degree in English. I graduated on the Dean's List and received a scholarship to fund an Undergraduate Research paper on American Literature. During my studies I volunteered at a Seattle School in ESL classrooms. There I worked with groups of students and individuals on a variety of subjects including english, math, and social studies.My tutoring style centers around exploring a students strengths and weaknesses and working realistically with them to improve their knowledge. Each student is an individual and needs individualized learning. But of course there are general strategies which I find effective. Although I am capable of tutoring a variety of subjects my specialty is English and writing essays as it is what I have the most experience in. My strategy for attacking any essay topic is to help tofirst gather information, plan out how to form it into an effective argument, and then get to writing. At this point I work with student from the sentence level through paragraph and finally to overall structure. My goal is to not only improve the current essay, but to imporve essay writing skills permanently.I am passionate about teaching, and find it constantly rewarding. Currently I am awaiting deployment to Sub-Saharan Africa with the Peace Corps where among other things I will teach. Aside from this I also enjoy playing guitar and listening to music, films, jogging, and just hanging out with friends. I grew up in Kirkland and have lived in Washington my whole life.
