...am an Early Childhood and Childhood Education major at SUNY Fredonia with a concentration in Spanish. As a future educator, I am passionate about helping students learn and grow to their full potential. It is important to me that all students know that they are capable of great things and can find their strengths. I offer subjects including Elementary and Middle School Math, Science and writing, Pre Algebra and Algebra 1, College Application Essays and...

...school math students to advanced undergraduate math students. My students come from all skill levels as well, from those trying to make up for lost time to those trying to set the curve for their class. I have always believed that every student comes with their own challenges, and I have always approached every student as a unique challenge. I have found substantial success as a tutor because I understand that every problem can be...

My educational path has followed paths of privilege -- private prep school, the Ivies for undergraduate and graduate degrees -- but my outlook on education is not conservative. I see success in terms of curiosity that grows throughout a lifetime, and reaches into new domains. Confident, creative thinkers are always in short supply, so it feels good to collaborate with Varsity Tutors to encourage more of them.

...teacher's license in the state of Vermont in 2018. I have worked in various educational settings, including public schools and camps. My passion is helping students develop a love for the process of learning. Key questions that guide my practice are: What are a student's unique interests and strengths? Do they learn by talking, being hands-on, or visualizing? Why is it challenging for a student to learn a specific concept or skill? What building blocks...

...allows me to interpret and describe ideas that intrigue me in creative ways using sound. That said, I still have a secret crush on math and science, and I love exploring and analyzing languages and the written word. (In fact, much of the music I have written has been inspired by literary or linguistic concepts.) I have taught courses in music theory, history, and composition at the University of Washington, and I have tutored students...

...everybody's eyes to this deep and wonderful truth. Math is something to be enjoyed. I believe that while knowing the formulas and procedures is important, memorizing mathematical formulas without appreciating the concepts is akin to memorizing the lines of a Shakespeare play without paying attention to the underlying prose. My strongest subjects are linear algebra and pre-calculus though I am proficient at tutoring all high school and college underclassmen mathematical subjects. I hope that my...

...ASU, and I described 10 species of weevil (snout beetle) that were completely new to science. As part of my degree program, I have taught several different science classes. One of my favorite parts of being a doctoral student has been teaching and working one-on-one with students. To me, there is nothing more rewarding than seeing something 'click' for a student. My interdisciplinary training in biology and materials science has taught me how to communicate...

...primary goal is to help students become independent, comfortable, and confident in the fields they are studying. I love helping people get to the "aha" moment when they really understand what's being taught.

Given the right goals and assistance, I truly believe that anyone can master any of the subjects I...
