I left high school and entered into college full-time when I was only 14, and transferred to a UC campus as a junior by the time I was 17. I received my Bachelor's degree in Biological Sciences at UC Merced, and my Masters in Public Administration at Cal State Long Beach. My academic path has been quite unconventional, but it gave me the opportunity familiarize myself with a wide range of subjects. I am currently continuing my education in the medical sector, and volunteer at a local hospital with some of my spare time. I'm very confident in my ability to tutor all subjects, but I am most experienced in tutoring students in math and science. Based on my experience, students tend to learn best when they're taught to understand concepts, rather than being asked to memorize. During my study breaks, I enjoy swimming, bike riding, cooking and, more importantly, eating.

I majored in Chemistry with a concentration in Biochemistry as a pre-med undergraduate at Berea College. My favorite classes in high school and throughout college were chemistry and biology which led her to pursue biochemical research and a career in medicine. Tutoring students in various subjects since the ninth grade, I have nearly eight years of experience. During my post-secondary education, I volunteered with the One-to-One tutoring program where I tutored local elementary students in math, reading, and social studies. I also volunteered as a science instructor for Vanderbilt University’s Aspirnaut STEM Program for elementary and middle school students, while working as a Chemistry Teaching Assistant/tutor for undergraduate courses. In the fall of 2017, I will be attending the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine to complete my post-graduate studies. Daughter of a high school algebra and English teacher, I really enjoy tutoring and helping students understand subjects especially in the areas of math, reading, and science. I find it rewarding to share my knowledge and passion for science with students just being introduced to the subject. My goal in tutoring is to not only get the students on course with their grade level work but to also challenge them to surpass this level of understanding by finding creative approaches to teaching complex topics.

My name is Monica, and I recently graduated from University of California – Berkeley with a B.A. in public health. I have tutored a wide range of elementary to high school students in several subjects, and so I understand every student has their own style of learning. As a tutor, I will do my best to provide a supporting environment and create lesson plans that will assist with the students understanding of the materials. More importantly, I will encourage students to voice their ideas and ask questions to ensure that they will understand every step of the way.

I'm a college chemistry lecturer and laboratory instructor who enjoys helping students learn! I've taught college courses for the past 5 years as a professor, and the preceding 5 years as a graduate student while obtaining my PhD. During the last 13 years, I've tutored students of all ages and academic backgrounds in chemistry, biochemistry, math, and music. My experience allows me to help you reach your goals!

Caroline is a graduate of Emory University in Atlanta, GA with a B.S. in Biology. With a background in genetics research, she has scored in the 99th percentile for the Biological Science section of the MCAT and in the 95th percentile for the MCAT overall. Caroline has a successful background tutoring in many subjects both privately and for professional test preparation services. She is currently tutoring in the Atlanta area for the sciences, reading, literature, and MCAT preparation. Her outside interests include writing and yoga.

I received my Bachelor of Science from Western Washington University and my Master of Science from the University of Oregon, both in chemistry. After graduation, I worked in the pharmaceutical industry as a synthetic chemist before starting a PhD program. While I ultimately decided not to complete my doctorate, I did discover I had quite a passion for teaching chemistry. I then started teaching test prep courses and tutoring students, and later I started teaching general and organic chemistry at Seattle Central College. Tutoring especially appeals to me because breakthrough moments don't always occur while class is in session. Every student has a slightly different way of wrapping his or her head around a given concept. By engaging students one-on-one, I can get a feel for their specific situation and how they relate to a given topic, and modify my teaching style and examples to fit their needs. In my spare time, I am an avid homebrewer and I also enjoy sports, video games, and being outdoors.

I am a pre-medical student at Vanderbilt University, majoring in Neuroscience with a minor in Scientific Computing. I'm passionate about merging medical expertise with technological advancement to provide the best healthcare possible. My past tutoring experiences include leading an AP chemistry study group for both in-class exams and the AP test as well as mentoring high school students in math and chemistry. I have recently taken college-level science courses such as biology and organic chemistry and understand the most common struggles for students and the best ways to overcome them. I am also happy to provide any advice for prospective pre-medical students or soon-to-be undergraduate applicants. My teaching style will depend on the student. I can provide motivational coaching or gentle advice, whatever I see the student respond to best!

As a pre-medical student at Princeton University, I've had significant experience with a vast array of subjects in both learning and teaching roles. I started tutoring in high school and have been hooked ever since! I enjoy helping others succeed in any way I can.After spending a few years helping students in my hometown prepare for the SAT, I've more recently focused on the hard sciences. I've taught students of all ages in the past and I believe it is important to curtail your teaching methods to the student's favorite learning style. Whether you're a visual, auditory, or tactile learner (or some combination of all three!), I'm confident I can assist you in understanding and mastering difficult concepts!I plan to matriculate to medical school in the summer of 2014 after taking a gap year filled with relaxation, a lot of hockey, and hopefully some scuba diving if I'm lucky enough to escape the barren oceanic depths of New Jersey!

I am a skilled, resourcefully-active, and supportive Science and Math tutor with a BS. degree in Chemistry (Honors) and a minor in Mathematics. I have been tutoring for over 4 years now and I must say my favorite part is watching my students OVERCOME any form of ACADEMIC FEAR which leads them to WORK HARDER and beautifully SUCCEED!My tutoring strategy involves going into detail on the material, interacting with students, and encouraging critical thinking in order for students to not only understand the material but also be confident. Active students who tutor with me should expect improved time-management skills, better note-taking techniques, refined personal studying strategies and better schedule building tactics.My fundamental goal is to support students in their success and impact journey.

I am a graduate of the University of Washington Seattle, with a Bachelors of Science in Biochemistry, and a minor in Chemistry.I am very comfortable in a variety of subjects up to university level. These include: Mathematics through university level Calculus, Physics, General Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Biology, and Biochemistry. I have genuine interest in these areas and would be very enthusiastic to pass on my knowledge of the coursework to othersIn addition to working for Varsity Tutors, I also do SAT/ACT and curriculum based prep for The Bellevue Learning Center, an in person tutoring company.In high school, I worked as a ski instructor, giving me direct experience in teaching people of varying ages. Additionally, participation in study groups was one of my most frequently used study techniques as a college student. While participating in study groups, I spent at least as much time teaching others college level concepts as I did being taught. These frequent study sessions helped me learn ways to become much more effective as a tutor.A large part of my responsibilities as a ski instructor was communicating with both my students and their parents and working with them to develop more effective ways to help my students get the most out of each teaching session. Although the subject matter of the courses will be much different, I believe that this experience will still be very relevant in a tutoring setting.
