...and spent my undergraduate years volunteering with Jumpstart. For three years, I served as a Team Leader with Jumpstart, a national non-profit that seeks to prepare students from less affluent neighborhoods for Kindergarten, so that they are less likely to drop out of high school. In this position, I worked with teachers and school staff, as well as led a group of my peers through training and development to provide high-quality literacy intervention to our...

...I have tutored all ages and was a teacher for younger children. I currently work at a school as management so I am missing the teaching portion of my life. I have developed various strategies and tips not just for students but myself throughout college. What may work for one person may not work for another even from subject to subject. I am patient and work to help aid students with academic challenges and goals....

I enjoy teaching students and helping them reach their academic goals. I have a Doctor of Medicine degree, as well as a Bachelors of Science degree with a double major in Biology and Sociology. I am interested in fitness, reading, and sightseeing in my free time.

...passion for reading and writing. I love the way reading a novel can pick you up and bring you anywhere. Someplace magical, someplace mysterious. Writing is an outlet used for expression and can be very therapeutic. Finding your creativity is a fun way to get to know yourself better. In addition to teaching, I am also the debate coach at my school. I'm an animal lover and in my free time I volunteer at many...

...the material together as a team. This type of tutoring dynamic fosters a positive learning environment in which the student is able to thrive. This environment allows students to replace the idea that the material is "too hard" with the idea that the material is an "exciting challenge." I am trained in different communication techniques that allow me to accurately assess the weak points for students, and using these points as a baseline for the...

...have taken the SAT three times, the PSAT three times, and three SAT subject tests. I am extremely familiar with the layout of the SAT and how to coach students in studying and test-taking techniques. I believe in setting a strong foundation of knowledge for students to build off of in every subject they approach. I look forward to helping students become the best they can be through engaging lessons made specifically for each individual.

...education, and I hope to do that for others. While in college, I tutored music theory, ear training, and piano. Music has always been one of my favorite subjects to help others with because I come from a household of musicians! I also have always had a knack for patterns and rules, which is why I am a huge grammar nerd, and love subjects like language and math! I believe that any student is capable...

...literature, but as a student I sometimes struggled with bringing that enthusiasm to my homework and tests. After learning new ways to approach preparation and practice in my subjects, tests, studying, and even the ACT became challenges that I truly enjoyed. As a tutor, my goal is to help students set individualized goals and a develop an approach to learning that builds a foundation for retention and enrichment throughout their education and beyond. (And study...

...and computer science. I'm excited to begin my first summer working with Varsity Tutors! My strongest tutoring areas include ACT test prep, algebra and calculus I, computer science (Java and C) and building reading and writing skills (including essay assignments). I have experience tutoring and mentoring middle school and high school students. My tutoring style is relaxed but efficient; I always try to keep the material interesting and focus on the big picture over minutiae....

I have a BS in Applied Mathematics from University of Minnesota - Twin Cities and I am currently working as a software developer in NYC. I look forward to hearing from you !

...the student plays for a staged reading, which they perform for all the students and their families. In contrast, our larger programs tended to include as many as 250 students participating in a single day-long event. In one instance, we partnered with a major northern New Jersey car deanship group on an entrepreneuship competition where teams of students devised a marketing strategy for an assigned car brand, which they presented to the dealership group's executives...

...no attribute more valued than passion. My teaching philosophy revolves around the core idea that the student should be the one to find the answers they need. Rote memorization, reciting, and hurling out facts without context will always place second to a true desire to learn when it comes to succeeding in academics. Not only should the tutor and the student aim to understand a subject, they should also try to develop a love for...

...reteaching provided to a point where they become Masters of their own learning. Not only do I want students who work with me to gain competency in content, but I enjoy helping them learn how to identify areas of strength and weakness academically, ask good questions, and develop successful study habits which will help them do well in the future and excel in more than the topics I am tutoring them in. I hope to...

...students face when language is a barrier. I was an ESL student myself in elementary school, so I understand the importance of patience and how that can shape a student's learning experience. Some children I taught math to were involved in their learning and assessed their knowledge through fun 'game' based exercises. I was able to observe the academic gains from children working collaboratively in groups. The most rewarding thing was to see everyone develop...

...after tutoring has ceased by fostering new ideas and perspectives, improving interactions with others, stimulating conversations, and promoting on-the-job and daily life problem solving. I became a professional Tutor after several years as an Academic Writing Editor for undergraduate and graduate students. Since I began tutoring with Varsity in December of 2016, I have expanded my expertise to include all pre-school, elementary and junior-high level subjects. My focus remains on writing, reading and literary subjects...

I am a recent graduate from the University of Miami, majoring in Ecoystem Science and Policy and minoring in Marine Science. I began tutoring in English in 2022 as a volunteer for ENGin, but now I am available to help with math and science courses as well.

...background in humanities, arts and math. I've been a language teacher for the past seven years, focusing on "twice exceptional" students, those who are highly gifted and have challenges like autism, executive functioning, and learning disabilities. With master's degrees in both Mathematical Physics and Special Education, I love teaching both advanced subject material and the fundamentals of literacy, organizing, and the whole human that go along with all learning. I often say I work best...

...tutoring a variety of subjects and grade levels. I am a sophomore at Fordham University majoring in Math/Computer and Information Sciences, so my specialties are in STEM subjects. However, I've also taken AP/College level courses in high school in history, english, psychology, philosophy and others, so I am confident that I can tutor in any subject at least up to a high school level. Another area I am proficient in is SAT/ACT test tutoring. My...
