Award-Winning Latin Tutors serving Cary, NC

...research scientist. Now, I tutor elementary and middle school students ranging from special needs to gifted and talented across the country. In my initial session with students, I find out what they want to achieve during the instruction and their future goals. I use interactive visuals to connect what they learn in the classroom to the real world. Breaking down difficult material for clarity is what I enjoy doing most. Critical thinking and study skills...

...double-majoring in English and Political Science. My favorite classes tend to be English and Social Studies classes, and I enjoy the unique perspectives that each student brings to the topics that they're studying. I decided to join Varsity Tutors because I've always been passionate about helping my peers keep up with their classes. Two of my siblings have ADHD, and I know that many people are better suited to alternate learning approaches rather than the...

...the use of various technology and am very comfortable working in environments that require such proficiency. I am also an avid drummer and enjoy designing manuscripts and fonts and volunteering at my church in my free time. My academic specialties include the thought and theology of John Wesley and Thomas Aquinas, contemporary Wesleyan theology and ethics, Methodist history and doctrine, comparative Methodist-Catholic dialogue, and Western philosophy. I moved from Boston to Raleigh, NC, in July...

...enjoy it. Education has opened up so many doors for me, and this is largely because I was fortunate to have some amazing teachers growing up who made learning fun (or at the very least not miserable). My goal is to do the same for each one of the students who I work with, and find ways to make even the most abstract concepts or complex math problems "click" in a student's mind.... Individualization is key....

...I have also completed a great deal of coursework in logic and mathematical logic. I am currently co-authoring a paper on one of the famous logical paradoxes advanced by Zeno. In addition to studying philosophy, I have spent several years studying Ancient Greek and Latin. Prior to entering the doctoral program in philosophy at Penn, I completed a year of coursework in both languages in the post-baccalaureate program in Classical Studies. I began my studies...

...academic success is to get to know their own style of learning. Systems that work for some people are a disaster for others, and the key is to find one that is suited to you. I believe in trying out a variety of learning approaches and adapting to what works best for each student. I am organized, curious, and relentless in my enthusiasm for sharing ideas, especially about government, law, and politics.

...and then gradually release the pupils to complete tasks on their own. I love to see students master new material and become confident in themselves. Tutoring will give me an outlet to continue to stay in tune with our future leaders of America. During the course of my career I have taught several students who have played in the NBA, competed in the Olympics, a famous folk singer, and many published writers, and speakers. Most...

...2/Pre-calculus, as well as Latin and Ancient Greek. I love getting to help students understand subjects I am passionate about. I graduated with honors from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 2015 with a B.A. in Classics (Latin and Greek Literature) and a Minor in Mathematics. The most important thing to me when tutoring is that my students feel understood and respected, and never looked down upon for not understanding something.

...I have a Ph.D. in English Literature and a B.A. in English and Latin. I have taught at both the undergraduate and secondary level and have tutored middle school students as well. In addition to my experience as a teacher, I have also worked as a professional editor and writer. I love working with learners of all ages and ability levels and look forward to helping you develop, hone, and master new skills.

I've been interested in science for as long as I can remember. Business is an interest. Some day, I hope to reconcile these passions by starting my own research and development company.

...the language, my students strengthened their memory and their ability to apply their knowledge to new texts. My advanced courses involved students in interpretive debates through class discussion, readings in scholarship, and papers. I have tutored privately at the high school and undergraduate levels, and in the summer of 2016 I tutored at Lindamood-Bell Learning Processes. There I taught a variety of language skills (pronunciation, reading and listening comprehension, writing, critical thinking) to students of...

...the GRE, so I am well-positioned and passionate about helping students succeed with testing and graduate school admissions. Writing is another area of interest for me. I especially enjoy helping students develop their writing skills. I love learning and I want to help students learn to love it too. Learning is valuable for its own sake apart from any practical considerations. However, I do recognize that sometimes students need concrete, immediate, quantifiable results, and so...

...the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, where I am also minoring in Biology and Latin. My biggest passion lies with younger girls in STEM. Women are vastly underrepresented in STEM, and it is a goal of mine to succeed in STEM, as well as help other women succeed too! However, I am open to tutoring anyone who needs help because STEM can be difficult for everyone! I have a uniquely diverse background in...

Knowledge is accessible to all. One of the most common problems I see is students trying to learn or being taught in a way that doesn't access the way they learn best. I approach all learning from multiple directions to utilize the most efficient route to content mastery for all students.

...absorb material and develop powerful thinking habits. I have three years of tutoring/teaching experience with students from first grade to graduate students. By training, I'm a philosopher (MA, BA), but I also have background in religious studies (BA) and cognitive science (a minor). Cognitive science spans linguistics, psychology, anthropology, computer science, philosophy, and education. My background in logic helps me teach all standardized tests. I scored around the 95th percentile on the GRE Verbal. I...

...because it's my first love. I like to see struggling or disinterested students read better and learn more about themselves in the pages of a book or online. How would you describe your teaching philosophy/your tutoring style? My teaching philosophy is that all students can learn, grow and improve regardless of race, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, location, family background or intellectual level. My job is to figure out how best to achieve this learning. What interests you...

My name is Zariah! I am an 20 year-old university student studying Psychology and World Religion! I excel in studying history, english, and classical literature.

The very first student whom I tutored received a perfect score on the ACT. That is why I have continued tutoring for the past seven years. Throughout the course of my tutoring, I have had the pleasure of working with a wide variety of students from kindergarten to graduate school.

...I have been involved in many school programs at several historic sites, teaching history to primarily grade school students. This is one of my favorite ways to teach history--I like being able to bring the past to life. I am dedicated to helping students understand the subjects they are studying and develop a passion for them. I want to create a pleasant learning environment and allow my students to find their potential. Outside of academics,...
