Andreas

Algebra Tutor • +15 Subjects

I received my Bachelor of Science in Applied Mathematics and Statistics from Stony Brook University, and I am currently pursuing my Masters degree in Operations Research at the same institution. While attending SBU, I tutored student athletes in a variety of math courses, ranging from Algebra, to Calculus. My favorite courses to tutor involve probability and statistics, because I love how many layers each question has, and how much you can learn from doing even the simplest problem! When tutoring, I strive to create a calm and relaxed environment that helps students work through problems by drawing conclusions from what they already know. I believe learning is a beautiful thing, and I do my best to help others improve their learning skills!Outside of school, I am a total health nut. I love learning about fitness, nutrition, and other health-related subjects. I am also an avid Ultimate Frisbee player and amateur musician.

Elementary School Tutor • +28 Subjects

I was a tutor at Graceland University in both the ELL program assisting students to pass the TOEFL and trio program helping first generation college students with a diverse set of classes. Since graduation, I taught second grade in Alaska. All my students were ELL. My students started the year with 5 out 16 being able to recognize the Alphabet and count beyond 10. The year ended with all but 1 reading at a second grade level and adding and subtracting double digits. 5 students ended the year reading at a 3rd grade level. I also taught in a Montessori school in inner-city Kansas City working with student 1-6.

Mitchell

Biochemistry Tutor • +24 Subjects

I'm a current medical student at Chicago Medical School and a previous graduate of The University of Nebraska - Lincoln. I also received my Masters degree in biomedical sciences from Rosalind Franklin University. I would like to tutor other students interested in medicine (MCAT tutoring) or students struggling to master STEP 1 material (second year medical students). I believe these two exams are two of the most stressful exams a student can take, but with a good study schedule and study habits, they are manageable. I am also interested in teaching younger students (elementary and middle school age) the basics of mathematics. A strong foundation of basic algebra is crucial for ACT or SAT preparation. Mastering these skills at a young age can set students up nicely for high school and beyond.

ACT Prep Tutor • +57 Subjects

I am a current undergraduate at the University of Texas at Austin with a 4.0 GPA. I am pursuing a degree in biology. In high school, I have tutored children from the ages of 8-17 in various subjects and helped increase their scores tremendously. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about Biology, Literature, and History. In my experience helping struggling students prepare for Standardized Tests, we always seem to have the most fun (with remarkable advancements) prepping for the Critical Reading and Writing portions of the exams. 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. I am flexible in my teaching styles and will always do my best to tailor the tutoring to my students' needs.If you are looking to apply to college soon and need editing for your essays, I would love to help. I have been accepted to top universities in Texas and California such as A&M, UT Austin, UC San Diego, University of Southern California, and more!

ACT Math Tutor • +32 Subjects

Hello folks, I'm a computer science Instructor.As soon as I graduated from high school in 2007, I've chosen to start a professional career in IT by getting numerous IT certifications such as A+, Network+, Security+, Linux+, and CCNA (in French Language), I.T welcomed me aboard its ship. Since then, I have risen to become as a premiere leader Technologist. Some would even call me a "marvel of modern technology," as there is no computer malfunction I cannot solve. My flawless record derives from my very own personal mission to leave every computer I work on properly functioning. For me, failure is never an option.I consider myself as a lifelong learner who refuses to be left behind as the world constantly moves forward. That is why I keep myself updated on the latest technological advancements. When I am not cramming my brain with every bit of technical knowledge the world has to offer, I enjoy participating as a worldwide climate change activist. I would say Im an experienced leader of interdisciplinary teams of practitioners, having strong knowledge of international development especially as a role of civil society actor in global governance, public participation processes and participatory governance

Julie

AP English Language and Composition Tutor • +12 Subjects

I have been a high school English teacher for over 11 years. Throughout my time in this position I have taught a broad spectrum of classes, but my main concentrations have been in Writing, American Literature, and British Literature. I also teach the verbal SAT prep class in my district. I obtained my BA from The College of New Jersey with a major in English. I also have my Masters of Education, which I obtained from The University of Phoenix in 2007.I currently tutor writing, close-reading, and literature. I believe that teachers can help students find intrinsic motivation. Every child is capable of much more than they believe and it is our job as adults and teachers to provide children with the skills they need to unlock their potential. I enjoy working one-on-one with students because is really enables me to delve into the content and help students really understand.Outside of teaching, I am a single mother of two beautiful children. We love to ski, go to the beach, swim, dance, roller-skate, read, and scout. I am easy to talk and relate to and I'm hoping that I can help your child meet success in all of his or her academic goals.

Grady

ACT Prep Tutor • +7 Subjects

I have just defended my master's thesis on social behavior in a species of bird called the Golden-winged Manakin (a relative of the "Moonwalking Bird" on YouTube). Through my master's program, I have three years of experience as a teaching assistant. I've taught freshman-level biology and zoology labs and held office hours to help students with population ecology classwork.I think that the best ways to learn new material involve tackling concepts and the connections between them from different angles. I try to help students by presenting the material from different sides and letting them turn it around in their head and see it different ways. I've found this approach helpful both in teaching and in my own studying. I love teaching and learning, and I'm excited to help you do well in your own academic career!

Worcester has six school districts serving over 26,500 students across 60 schools, and Varsity Tutors connects students with tutors who understand the different curricula and standards across these districts. Whether your student attends a Worcester Public Schools campus, a charter school, or a private institution, we can match them with a tutor familiar with their specific academic environment and local expectations.

Massachusetts has rigorous state standards, particularly in math and English language arts, and personalized 1-on-1 instruction is proven to help students master these benchmarks more effectively than classroom instruction alone.

This personalized approach ensures the tutoring plan is tailored to your student's needs from day one.
