My interest in educating students dates back to my years in high school, when all I wanted to do is work with my peers in assisting them with their studies. Throughout my high school career, I was involved in multiple opportunities that allowed for me to foster my skills as I was part of the Drama club, School Leadership committee, Music Scholars as well as an graduate of the Inroads Business Program. It seemed only logical that I pursue a career in education, as my background was so eclectic.When I began my undergraduate career, I had the opportunity to be exposed to the full range of education courses, all of which tended to reinforce and solidify my intense interest in teaching. I've also had the opportunity to study a number of subjects in the social sciences and they have been both enjoyable and enlightening, providing me with a new and different perspective on the world in which we live.In the realm of education, I have plethora of experiences. My career began by receiving my BA in education. I taught Elementary Education with my focus in early literacy, comprehension and fluency. A few years later, I began my Masters in Counseling. I worked successfully as an elementary counselor until I received my Ed. Specialist in Leadership and Superintendency. I have been in a leadership role for 9 years. Four of the nine years were at the High School Level, which was a tremendously great experience. Of course, my plans to enter a doctoral program are near.I have developed a special interest in the field of education and school leadership and have even been tasked with taking on a building of over 700 students and 70 staff this coming school year. I have been effective at building solid student, teacher and parent relationships. I have met the challenge of holding teachers accountable for their students learning in turn being a part of student growth and success. I can identify, teach, and coach the Common Core standards for elementary students as well as transfer my knowledge of effective research based strategies to meet the college and career standards.

I am a Sophomore at the University of Maryland in College Park pursuing a degree in Business Management. As a college student, I am able to see that learning is something that we do every day, inside and outside of the classroom. My goal as a Varsity Tutor is to aid others in becoming better learners in their everyday lives and to strive for academic excellence. I am so excited to be a part of this learning journey with you all and can't wait to meet you virtually soon!

I graduated with a degree in International Relations from the University of Georgia. I'm very curious about the world and I love learning about other people. I love discussing history, sports, and what is going on in the world today. Spending my 20's living in South America helped me to broaden my perspective and now that I'm in my 30's I feel like I've interacted with more people and cultures than I ever thought possible. Before I graduated from high school, I hadn't traveled many places and I certainly hadn't gone many places by myself. I try to show the students that whatever problems they're experiencing now will fade away over time. Many student fall into a trap of thinking that this is the defining moment of their lives when in reality it's only a passing moment that will lead to bigger and better things. My role is like that of a coach in that I want the students to realize that they have the power to change things themselves, but I can help them to gain the perspective that they need. If I can instill the confidence in them to succeed in life, then I am a happy tutor.

In terms of credentials, I have a Bachelors of Science in Biomedical Engineering from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI). My main area of academic focus was in biomaterials, which includes (but is not limited to) the study of cell biology, design and use of biological implants, and the design and delivery of drugs. I also pursued some undergraduate research in the area of Biocomputation, which involved utilizing algorithms to simulate biological processes. I also worked as a laboratory teaching assistant for Physics II for two years which involved working with a laboratory section of over 40 undergraduate students of various majors as well as helping to staff designated tutoring sessions for the course material, and briefly as a one-on-one Biomechanics tutor for a few months. I also participated in a few outreach programs (with RPI's Biomedical Engineering Graduate Council) which aimed to get young children involved and interested in science. I also studied the fundamentals of computer programming and data structures during my senior year of university, and have had an interest in programming ever since.Outside of academics, I've been playing the bass guitar since I was 15, with two years of receiving formal instruction. I love playing Squash as well as Soccer (though not as well as the former, plus RIP USMNT but at least Poland qualified), and I also enjoy jogging as well. I also like to both read and write sci-fi, fantasy, and non-fiction currently. My favorite movie is Blade Runner, and no, I have not seen the sequel yet.In terms of my own philosophy on education and my potential role in it, I believe that at the bare minimum, a high school diploma is a key requirement for one to be able have success in the adult world. I believe that I have the potential (through the knowledge I have obtained and my ability to problem solve) to help students in need work towards achieving that end goal, and more should they desire. So, that's why I'm here.

I am a graduate of The University of Kentucky and received my Bachelor of Arts in Special Education (K-12.) I have taught for 17 1/2 years, teaching the last 16 years in Gilbert. I have experience teaching all subjects and grade levels in elementary schools in special education classrooms and general education inclusion settings. I enjoy tutoring students in all subjects and find that I am most passionate about Reading and Math. I advocate for students and believe that all children can learn but differ in the ways they learn and the timeframe in which they learn. Each student brings unique qualities, talents and interests to learning and it is my job to use those to enhance and influence their learning. My interests include reading, watching movies and going to garage and estate sales.

I am a graduate of Georgetown University and Loyola University-New Orleans' College of Law. I possess a B.S. in International Relations with a concentration in International Politics and a J.D. I have over 5 years' tutoring experience with students from elementary, middle, high school and university backgrounds in a variety of subjects:-TOEFL-SAT Reading and Writing-History-Geography-Debate and ForensicsI prefer to tutor social sciences and language arts courses because I believe a solid understanding of communication and social issues is fundamental to our society's growth and development.As a tutor, I try to identify the strengths and motivations of my students in order to find out ways to help students identify with the subject matter. I find that identification of the material with concrete examples or applications makes any subject more interesting, and easier to learn.Outside of work, I am interested in technology and education issues, and I try to be as involved in community events as possible.

Hello! I'm Karin, a licensed independent social worker from the Twin Cities area in Minnesota. Let's help you pass that licensure exam, finish the paper, or prepare for a presentation!

I have been tutoring math, science, and English for the past 17 years (+15,000 hours of experience) to elementary, middle school, high school, and college students attending public and private schools. I have also taught students around the world in ESL and standardized exams.

I am currently a student studying to be physician's assistant. I have tutored statistics for three years at the collegiate level, and have also tutored genetics and physiology. My main specialty is tutoring students in study skills. When I work with students I assess their strengths and the methods of learning the student feels most comfortable with. The types of learning I like to identify in individuals include but are not limited to: visual, physical, auditory, and memorization. These techniques are all study skills I have learned to master while studying for my biology major and statistics minor, and have allowed me to become successful in mentoring other students as well. In my spare time, I enjoy working and volunteering with others, multitasking, and running. My life largely revolves around working with people. I am here to help you learn, and am ready to share my knowledge with you as we begin our journey through mentoring and tutoring with one another.

I first began tutoring unofficially during my high school years, as many family and friends needed help with math, and I was one of the older kids in the group. I enjoyed helping them learn new concepts, and different ways to think about problems in order to get them to understand them better and succeed in their classes. Sometime during my college years I signed up with a tutoring company in which I was able to tutor online, which gave me more experience in dealing with different kinds of people that needed my help. Thanks to these experiences I believed I am well suited to teaching various levels of math to different customers.Outside of tutoring I still attend school. I am currently a masters student at ASU, and am usually around the campus doing school work or just hanging out with friends. When I have free time I enjoy playing basketball, going to the movies, and playing video games from time to time.I believe that as a tutor, I will be able to help you understand a concept, no matter how long it takes. Sometimes it just takes a little time a different method of thinking to get a point across, but in time the problem can be solved easily and with confidence.
