I received my Bachelor of Arts degree from Washington University in St. Louis where I double majored in Biology and Anthropology. I caught the teaching bug while studying abroad in rural southern India, during which time I taught a computer literacy class to high school students. After college I became a state-certified science educator and spent two years as a Teach For America corps member, teaching high school Biology and SAT/ACT prep in San Antonio, Texas.Despite the extraordinary socioeconomic barriers to academic success that students faced in my school, I was able to lead them to substantial academic gains. My students – many of whom had not passed science in 8th grade – passed their STAAR Biology EOC exam at one of the highest rates in the entire school district. I attribute this outcome not only to my engaging teaching style, but also my patience and willingness to work alongside students until they truly reach mastery of every concept. I also persuaded my principal to adopt the SAT/ACT preparation elective that I taught to sophomores and juniors, because of my personal commitment to ensuring that bright and capable students in my school received the preparation necessary to achieve their post-secondary goals.Currently, I am pursuing dual Master's degrees from the University of Texas in Public Health and Social Work. As a born-and-raised Austinite, my interests include practicing yoga, sampling local food trailers, attending live concerts, and – perhaps most of all – cheering on my beloved Texas Longhorns in football.

I love helping people understand material that they have trouble working through on their own. Everyone learns differently and there is a way to teach everyone once you breakdown the information to its most basic concepts and build up from there. I am sure that together we can set you on the right path to understanding the subject matter at hand.

Hi! I'm a current 3nd year in medical school that is interested in pursing psychiatry (so hard to decide!). Before going to medical school, I obtained my MSBS. I graduated undergrad with a degree in biology. I have ample experience with medical school core, sciences, math, writing, and the humanities. My philosophy in teaching is that a student is capable of learning anything--it is a matter of finding a way that helps YOU learn. It is my goal to help you succeed!

I believe tutoring can be an essential component of anyone's education. Having a personal, one-on-one mentor to guide you through subject material is a factor that can prove to be a difference maker in achieving at the highest level. From my experience in undergrad at Cornell University to the many test-prep classes I have taken, I feel that I am knowledgeable in science subjects and mathematics and have developed strategies to best apply these techniques to standardized tests. I look forward to working with Varsity Tutors to help others the same way I have benefited from tutoring services.

I am a recent magna cum laude graduate from the University of Miami, where I earned my Bachelor of Science degree in Microbiology and Immunology. Furthermore, I am an accepted medical student and will officially start my medical education in August 2016. As a result of these accomplishments, I know for a fact that dedication and effort can pay off when it comes to academics. While my ultimate goal is to become a physician, I also greatly enjoy helping students learn and reach their academic potential.From firsthand experience, I understand that most schools provide a cookie-cutter style of teaching that may not be the best way for many students to learn a particular subject/topic. My goal as a tutor is to not only highlight a student's strengths to keep them motivated, but to also challenge them and encourage them to reach new levels of success with their education through a personalized style of learning. As a STEM advocate, I specialize in teaching most levels of math, science, and writing.I look forward to hearing from you and helping you reach your full academic potential!

I am a recent graduate from DePaul University. I received my Bachelors of Science in Biology with a focus in pre-health studies. I have experience tutoring English as a Second Language (ESL) with the Heartland Alliance in Chicago, as well as working with college students as a science tutor for the TRIO program at DePaul. I enjoy showing my students that while something may be complicated or hard, it's by no means impossible to learn. By exploring a subject from a variety of angles, true understanding and learning can occur. While my passions are for teaching biology and chemistry, I also enjoy helping students with English and improving their basic math skills. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time in nature with friends and family, reading, and cooking.

I am a Physician's Assistant student at Rutgers University. I completed my first Master's degree in Human Nutrition at Columbia University. I have tutored all throughout high school and college in various subjects, including the SAT, the sciences, math, English, and the GRE. I am an advocate of making learning fun and helping other students build a good base in understanding and comprehending material that they can take with them into all other aspects of their lives!

I was born and raised in Tampa, Fl. I went to the University of Wisconsin (Platteville) and earned a bachelors of science in Bio-Health, while graduating with Summa Cum Laude honors. I also played football for my university and became a first team all-american, as well as earning Capital One Academic all-american honors.I worked as a tutor while in college so I am very comfortable and familiar with the tutoring process. I have earned a certification from Tutorlingo, which is an agency that offers classes on how to become an effective tutor. I enjoy math and science classes, I especially enjoy tutoring chemistry because I too struggled with chemistry and understand exactly what you are going through.I understand what it feels like to try and overcome academic challenges, therefore I understand qualities that a tutor must exhibit, such as patience and good listening skills. I would describe my tutoring style as simple, patient, and thorough. I like to make sure the tutee understands the material before we move on to more subject matter. I also believe in explaining "why." I believe the why can always be explained especially when complex concepts can be broken down to simpler more meaningful concepts. Lastly please share information on what type of learner you are, and how you learn best so I can cater to your specific learning style.A little information about me, I am an avid collector of sneakers, I enjoy playing any and all sports, love going outside, and to the beach. I also like to travel and recently returned from assisting a medical laboratory in south Brazil.

I am passionate about science, learning, and teaching!I received my undergraduate degree in Chemistry from Duke University. While at Duke, I was a teacher's assistant for Honor's General Chemistry. As such, I spent time working with a great group of students to learn the basic principles of chemistry.After college, I worked in a laboratory for 2 years at the National Institute of Health. During my time in Washington DC, I also worked for Kaplan to prepare students for the MCAT. Washington University School of Medicine is where I received a Masters degree in Immunology. Outside of the laboratory, I spent my time working again as a teacher's assistant this time for Histology, a first year course for medical students, and then privately tutoring Histology.To continue teaching, I now work as a Varsity Tutor and I love it. My goal in teaching is to make sure my students don't just pass their tests, but to really understand the topics so that they can apply their knowledge even when it comes to difficult critical thinking exercises.I would love you to become another one of my successful students!

I attended the University of Detroit Mercy where I gained a Bachelor of Science in Biology. I have also recently graduated with a Masters of Basic Medical Sciences from Wayne State University. As you may be able to tell, I have had a passion for science, especially biology, for many years. My academic journey has given me an immense amount of experience with a wide range of subjects and tests. I know very intimately what it is like to be under pressure to perform well in school and on tests and therefore can relate to students under similar circumstances. I have had the opportunity to tutor many people in a wide range of ages and academic abilities in the past.I tutor a wide range of subjects but am most passionate about Math, Science, Reading, Writing, and Test Preparation. I believe the first and most vital step in working with a student is to identify specifically where he or she is struggling. Every student is different and deserves a teaching method that is tailored to them. I believe students learn best when they are guided along through discussion and hands-on methods as opposed to when they are lectured to; I also believe learning can and should be fun! When it comes to preparing for tests, I believe that what you know is only a small part of the puzzle; perfecting test-taking skills is equally important. I have taken many standardized tests throughout my life, and have been able to do well by understanding the tests and utilizing these skills.When I have spare time, I enjoy staying active by playing basketball and exercising. I also enjoy reading, sports, music and traveling. I look forward to helping you find your full potential on the road to success.
