Award-Winning Philosophy Tutors serving Memphis, TN

...levels, including varieties of literature, writing, and grammar. I also enjoy philosophy, politics (including civics and political science), and theology. Knowledge of these subjects is crucial to living as an informed citizen, and equips students with the capabilities to engage in society and the work force--as well as life problems they will encounter--at a very high level. That is why I am especially passionate about these areas, and I hope to help others learn and...

...financial stability- to answer his questions. Now things are better because I've made it my mission to make school fun for him using our shared love for superheroes and gaming as a source of inspiration and idea communication. While I enjoy this role, it made me realize how much I miss tutoring more broadly. In college, I was lucky enough to have friends motivated to succeed and who loved learning. Long study sessions turned into...

...intellectually grasp once I put aside the belief in my limitations and simply attempted to learn them as completely as possible. I always want to enter a tutoring session prepared to answer any questions I would have had if I were being taught that subject for the first time. My goal in tutoring is to never leave a student with a "just because" or a "that's just how you're supposed to do it" answer when...

I've loved teaching since I started in high school, and I've been doing it ever since (nearly ten years!). I'm currently studying at the University of Memphis, with majors in public health and philosophy.

...their goals too. I have a Master's degree and I have the same tests you are taking. I have been in your shoes. It is my goal to alleviate the anxiety, fears, and discouragement that often times come from having to take standardized tests. I make learning fun and engaging for Elementary and Middle School students. I take a "personal approach" to your sessions. My job is to cater to your needs. I spend my...

I am a current PhD student in Integrative Physiology with a strong focus on basic science laboratory methods. My expertise is in general human physiology, endocrinology, and biology. As a graduate student, I have taught at the college level and found teaching to be a major passion of mine. I really enjoy teaching and helping people understand science!

...Python programming. I have experience not only in a tutoring setting, but also in the classroom, teaching 2nd, 4th and 5th grade science as well as 11th grade Algebra II. I have and can tutor a variety of other subjects such as chemistry (another passion of mine!), trigonometry, ACT/SAT Prep, psychology, Italian language and more! Math and science are particular passions of mine, but I am comfortable teaching a wide variety of subjects. I hope...

...and out of their comfort zones. I learned how to gently push people past their fears. I learned how to use a combination of encouragement and technical knowledge to help people reach their goals. I learned how to read people and find the roots of their struggles. Through this, I could discover the best way to approach each individual and create a plan of action that worked best for their unique needs. Through all of...

...at the University of South Florida. I'm experiencing some success in the program: besides earning straight As, I was invited to present one of my papers at the University of Hawaii this year. That's where my profile pic was taken. When I'm not occupied with school work, I like playing the piano and guitar, reading (mostly) Sci-Fi novels, kayaking and fishing with my wife, playing video games, and playing strategy board games (they've gotten a...

...Throughout my experience tutoring I've found that engaging a student in dialogue about the question at hand is far more successful than doing all of the talking. There's no better way of ensuring that a student understands the material than getting them to put it in their own words! Beyond my passion for learning and teaching I'm a huge sports fan who rarely misses an Ohio State football or basketball game. I also grew up...

...that learning is, and ought to be, for its own sake. Math and philosophy, and their nuanced interactions, are my great passions. I've run more 5ks and 10ks than I can count, but the validation of completing a long race is nothing like the satisfying moment of writing "Q.E.D." on a difficult proof. I'm a scholar of the Western canon, greatly influenced by great thinkers and writers of the past such as Plato, Virgil, Aquinas,...

...with a minor in studio art from Simmons College, an MA in philosophy from Tufts, and a PhD in philosophy from University of North Carolina - Chapel Hill. I have worked as a writing assistant and taught high school and college students a variety of subjects within philosophy including Bioethics, Ancient Philosophy, Philosophy of Law, Ethical Theory, and Intro to Philosophy. In addition to philosophy, I am comfortable tutoring GRE Verbal and Analytical Writing, writing...

...topics and in learning itself. While I agree that the goal of teaching is to help someone learn a certain topic, the greatest achievement in teaching I have experienced is giving someone the ability to reason, and the drive and ability to begin teaching themselves. I enjoy teaching certain topics because of their power to bring this about, including languages, mathematics, and (of course) philosophy. All of these areas stretch from an elementary to an...

...senior thesis and literature seminars. I also work with everyone from ESL students to students with multiple languages to elementary-aged students just learning to read and write for the first time. And although it may sound silly, I get really excited about reading, writing, researching, and editing, and even more so, I look forward to working with students! I'm available to help, instruct, and work collaboratively with anyone looking for the additional guidance, practice, or...

...diction, editing, sentence structure, composition, and literary research and development. I have a strong knack for creative writing including character development, plot execution, outline formation, theory, information technology, and essay compilation. I am also skilled in time management and practicing healthy student habits. I am a critical thinker and thoughtful leader with a lifelong commitment to education. I am genuine and sincere with a natural gift of putting students at ease. I propel students to...

I graduated from the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in NYC in 2008, the oldest English speaking acting conservatory in the world. I graduated Summa from University of St Thomas with a BA in English, and just wrapped up a MS in Data Science from Northwestern. I'm a huge Red Sox fan and love watching detective shows when I have free time.... Positivity. Always. I believe that if a student is given positive tools and is...

...passion for education stems from the joy I find in helping students achieve their goals. My teaching style involves asking lots of strategic questions to help students discover answers for themselves, a process which my students typically find quite empowering. Still, I recognize that each student has unique needs, questions, and learning styles, so I strive to listen first and then craft individualized plans to meet each student's particular objectives. In my spare time I...

...in bettering one's thinking. I find it rewarding to help students overcome many of the same challenges and hurtles that I and my peers overcame. Tutoring is a way for me to repay a debt I feel I owe to my own teachers by helping others succeed where my teachers helped me succeed. Education is necessary for personal growth and human flourishing as a whole, and I try to embody this attitude while working with...

I'm a college junior majoring in Creative Writing and Comparative Literature at Emory University. I've worked as a student assistant at the Benjamin Franklin Academy in French and English, and I have ample experience helping students one-on-one or in small groups. I'd like to someday become an English professor. When I'm not tutoring, I love playing board games with my friends, seeing local music or curling up with a good book.
