...teacher's assistant at a home and school for severely autistic children ages 9-14, and worked on overcoming communicative barriers to foster interpersonal connections. I have also tutored multiple children with learning disabilities. In my experience, getting students engaged is just about finding the strategy that works best for them. That may mean we have to try multiple approaches, or approaches that I don't prefer, but I am willing to do whatever it takes to achieve...

...learn to throw a perfect knuckleball, because that pitch has always fascinated me. I teach because it's meaningful work; no one's life was made measurably or permanently better when I was serving pizzas. Teaching, though, can have a lasting impact. I am where I am and even who I am because of my teachers: Lindsey J. taught me how to think; Deborah B. taught me how to write; Paul B. taught me the vast possibilities...

Hi my name is Joseph. I'm currently working full time within B.E.S.T. Academy High School tutoring and mentoring students in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. I find myself to be easy to talk to and take pride in my tutoring experiences.

...While coaching teachers is my role, I never stopped tutoring because there's nothing like hearing my kids shout "Ohhhhh!" after doing math they never thought they could handle. I think most kids struggle in math because they think they can't memorize all the steps. I work hard to help students find strategies that make sense to them. When my students see that there are so many ways to get to the answer, they become mathematicians....

Making it understandable and easy for the student is my goal, no matter if the subject is Calculus, Chemistry, Spanish or English.

I tutor subjects in many different ways until it is understood well by the student. I...

I'm a finance student at the University of Georgia dedicated to helping my students learn math and other skills through practice and hard work. I began my tutoring career at Kumon where I developed a passion to help other students excel in their academic careers. My teaching philosophy is practice, the only to truly master a subject is to practice it until you can do it with your eyes closed.

...a classroom full of 10 year olds. And I've gotten results every time. I strongly believe in the power of personalized education, tailored for the individual student and human being. When I'm not tutoring, I spend most of my time on my two indie rock bands, in which I play guitar and bass and write many of the songs. I also like to take my dog, Mac, on walks around my neighborhood of Grant Park.

...I have taught in middle school, high school and college settings. Classes taught have varied through the years, including Physical Science, Algebra I, Algebra II, Physics, Chemistry, and Bible. I believe the key to tutoring is in understanding the student. Each of us learns and communicates differently. For the student to succeed, the tutor must learn how the student thinks, teach to the student's learning style and develop the student's skills on how to learn...

...to approach subject matter a different way than their school is teaching it. I have seen first hand students who do not understand material because the teacher will only teach one way to approach the problem. However, when these students were shown other methods, or had the concepts explained in a different way, they understood it! I love helping other students work through problems in order to further develop their understanding of the material. My...

I am a writer and editor with a B.A. in English from Pomona College. I mostly enjoy tutoring English, but math and science come easily to me as well. I love helping students get the most from their education. That moment when the material finally connects is everything. Outside of academia, I enjoy making music, reading, and working on my novel.

I love to learn and grow my mind and knowledge- and love to share the process of learning with others! My preference is in-person tutoring as it provides the best setting to develop an effective tutoring relationship. I would love to help...

I helped prepare exams for over 900 students each semester, and helped to...

...work with students to find the right resources and learning techniques to assist them in their journeys. In addition to tutoring, I have several interests that I pursue in my spare time. Throughout college, I was involved with research in a neurology lab studying Alzheimer's Disease, and was very fortunate to have our work published. Furthermore, I enjoy singing and was an active member of Suri, our bollywood fusion a cappella group. I am actively...

...graduated from Baylor University with a degree in Chemistry and often helped other students with subjects that were easy for me. I know it can be frustrating for students so helping them understand their subjects and gain confidence is what makes me like to tutor. I have also been a volunteer mentor/tutor here in Atlanta since I graduated college and look forward to helping more students. When I tutor, I am careful not to do...

...I am passionate about continuing my work in education through tutoring. I enjoy tutoring many subjects, particularly History, SAT Reading and Writing, College Essays, and Spanish. I love assisting students in implementing simple but effective changes in their preparation for Standardized Tests that show immediate results. I find this motivates students to continue through struggles in their educational pursuits. When I am not working, I enjoy yoga, running, cooking, traveling and playing the cello.

...with high school students. I did a lot of SAT test prep with the students and corrected their mistakes on each incorrect math problem. Also, I have previous experience in tutoring from elementary to college math. For example, some of these sections include calculus, algebra, geometry, etc. When I took the SAT back in high school, I got a perfect score in the math section and on the math II subject test as well. In...

...problems I can review or teach the necessary concepts to the student, then go back and help the student solve the problems correctly. I love the help students understand concepts they struggled with previously! I think a lot of dislike among students for math and science comes from a lack of understanding of the subject. Besides tutoring I also love music, specifically singing and playing the piano. I also enjoy playing sports such as volleyball,...

...support factor for those students, which is what I intend to do with Varsity Tutors. In the past, I have taught 6th, 7th and 8th grade math, Algebra, Algebra 2, and Foundations of Algebra.

I am highly dedicated to tutoring because I believe I can help others understand mathematics by scaffolding one's learning, creating hands on activities, use guided learning, and providing effective review study methods. Although...
