I am a current undergraduate Junior studying Behavioral Biology and Spanish at Boston University! Whether it be tedious SAT/ACT sections or intimidating college essays, I hope to make these seemingly difficult subjects a little less stressful for you! And remember: No question is ever a dumb question! I have been in you or your child's exact position and have been through nearly a dozen tutors in my academic career myself. I look forward to meeting you and making exams and essays a little easier for you as well!

I received my Bachelor's of Arts in Spanish at The Ohio State University with a focus in Iberian Studies and Latin American Literature. I am currently finishing my Master's of Science in Narrative Medicine at Columbia University in the City of New York. Although a large majority of my work is within the humanities and the medical humanities, I am currently applying to medical school; therefore, I have taken all of the required science courses and labs and taken the MCAT. I enjoy both the science and "humanity" of medicine, and my education reflects that: I have a vast range of experience in the humanities from foreign language to literary theory to philosophy, and also in the sciences from modern physics to physiology.My teaching style is heavily based on having the student actively articulate their thoughts aloud. Thus, when I tutor I encourage students to interact, reflect, and engage in "meta-cognition," thinking about thinking. I also can do "lecture-style" sessions, but only to supplement discussion. My goal is for students to have a conceptual understanding of the material, structured reasoning skills, and confidence in their abilities. I have been a guest lecturer for a medical humanities course at the University of Connecticut for pre-medical students, taught a narrative medicine course at Columbia for pre-medical students and post-baccalaureate students, and I am will continue this year assisting with courses at the narrative medicine program.Outside of academics, I enjoy exercise (weight-lifting), television (Doctor Who, Sherlock, etc), and films. I read excessively and indiscriminately: from a Philip K. Dick science fiction novel, to a Warren Ellis comic book, to Pablo Neruda's poetry, to Derrida's philosophy.

I am a current student at the University of Virginia, and I am so excited to tutor for Varsity Tutors! I want to help students of all grade levels and backgrounds excel in each aspect of their academic endeavors. My goal is to build strong relationships with my students while also teaching them the necessary skills to succeed in school, both academically and personally. I have had significant experience (over 3 years) with tutoring various different subjects. I tutor all elementary and middle school subjects as well as a few high school subjects such as Algebra I and Geometry. My teaching style is reflective of the student's most effective learning styles and thus, I am to gear my tutoring sessions specifically based on how my student learns best. I am immensely passionate about making a significant difference in the lives of each student that I work with. In my spare time, I enjoy cooking new foods, working out, and taking long walks!

I am currently a college senior in Newport News, VA. I am studying to obtain a BA degree in American Studies with minors in history and Spanish. I plan to pursue a MA in teaching immediately after completing my undergrad.

I'm a passionate bilingual teacher from Spain. I have 9 years of language teaching experience in the UK, Spain and the US. I graduated in Translation and Interpreting in Barcelona, Spain, back in 2003. I started my career as a language instructor in the UK, where I did my teacher training and taught Spanish to both adults and high schoolers. I have also taught English as a foreign language in Spain and tutored for many years. I'm a distance lecturer in translation English to Spanish for a British University too.I moved to the US in June 2014 to earn a MA in Linguistics with a Language Teaching Specialization from the University of Oregon in Eugene. After graduation I started working at South Seattle College, where I currently teach ESL and Spanish.I can tutor in Spanish, English as a second language, and a regional language in Spain: Catalan. I'm a linguist and have experience teaching at all levels. I also have proofreading experience and a good eye for detail, so I can help with marking of essays.In my free time I like to spend time with friends, hiking, cooking and dancing.

I am a graduate of a liberal arts university, with majors in both Spanish and Studio Arts. As a Teach for America alumni I have worked as a Spanish and Art teacher in elementary, middle, and high school settings in both public and private schools. Additionally I have worked with nonprofit organizations to provide arts education. I primarily tutor Spanish, English, Reading and ACT prep. I believe everyone deserves access to a quality education, and I look forward to working with you to meet and exceed your goals!

I take a hands-on approach to teaching and tutoring. I use strengths-based approaches to build on the student's strengths and abilities to help connect to content and be efficient in their learning and work habits. My strongest skills are in organization and strong work habits!

My interest and love for Spanish began as a child when I went to my Puerto Rican grandma's house. There was a rich Hispanic culture throughout her home and how she lived. I never understood the Spanish she spoke, but I loved hearing it and have very fond memories of it from my childhood. Fast forward to me at 19-years-old, I chose to serve a 2-year full-time volunteer mission for my church. I had no choice in where they would send me, so I was very grateful when they assigned me to serve in Chile. Those 2 years in Chile gave me an immense love for the Spanish language and a desire to continue using it for the rest of my life.As I returned from my 2-year mission, I decided to apply for a Minor Degree in Spanish at Brigham Young University. There, I qualified to take an advanced-level Spanish-speaking test to waive 16 credits worth of Spanish courses and accelerate my formal Spanish education. I passed the test with an A and continued the rest of my collegiate study taking advanced level Spanish courses. While in the first two years of my college, I also worked as a Spanish teacher in a Training Center that taught young missionaries who were just starting their 2-year service missions for my church. That job engulfed me in the Spanish language daily and encouraged me to improve my Spanish-speaking abilities.Today, I continue to speak the Spanish language frequently after having learned it 8 years ago. I hold a Spanish Minor from Brigham Young University, and I want to continue sharing the benefits of learning the Spanish language with others around me. If you choose me to be your tutor, I will give you my best efforts to teach you all you need to know to excel in your classes. You will learn more than just the curriculum needed for a good grade. Well engage in effective practice sessions, learn clever ways to grasp the language, and have fun while doing it! I love Spanish, and I know you will too after working with me!

Learning another language is a very valuable skill these days. As our world becomes smaller and we become more interconnected, the ability to communicate with each other is more appreciated and important. It takes effort and commitment, but it can also be a fun and exciting experience.I am committed to make your learning experience an exciting and pleasant one. We will work with grammar and pronunciation, but also speak about the subjects that interest you, current news, important issues that you care about.You will learn and became engaged in a new language and culture and I will do my best to help you make progress every day.

My tutoring approach is one of coaching, mentoring, and helping the student understand exactly what level and detail of help that they need to get ahead. Combining the personal discipline learned during 20 years as a Naval Officer with the unique expertise learned in one-on-one communication with peers and sailors as well as my five children, I can help you or your child succeed.A Bachelor's in Electrical Engineering, and a Math Minor help qualify me for tutoring in many subjects. My individualized tutoring methods also raised my step-son's Physics grade from a C to an A in one semester.I specialize in mathematics (basic arithmetic through calculus) but can help in many other subjects.Learning should be fun, but should also, at times, bring "Instant" results. I work to keep positive encouragement in every lesson, tutoring, or test preparation session.I speak fluent Spanish!
