Although, I currently teach reading and writing, I do have a strong love for math. I like being able to use different methods to achieve the same results.

...facility for people with learning deficiencies, behavioral issues and lack of adequate family support. One of the driving forces behind my determination to do just that, was the assumption that because I was raised in a small, low-income area, that my dreams and work ethic were supposed to be miniscule and subpar as well. Instilled in me at a very young age was that, "We are blessed to be a blessing" and I carry that...

I have a passion for writing and a lot of experience working with people of varying abilities. While I am new to Varsity Tutors, I am not new to teaching online.

...in their own abilities. I tutor many subjects but my favorites are reading and writing based- phonics, English literature, and reading comprehension. Reading has been a favorite hobby of mine since elementary school and I love to share that passion with others. Outside of teaching and tutoring, travel is one of my favorite pastimes. I have spent time studying and traveling abroad, as exploring new places and meeting new people are some of my favorite...

...who want to become better learners as well. In high school, I spent much of my time working with the arts through choruses, drama, and dance; I was also a member of multiple athletic teams and the co-head of the GLSBT+ Alliance. Needless to say, I needed to find a balance between work and play! In college, I continue to be involved with music as a member of Doox of Yale, a TTBB a cappella...

I am both an art historian and teacher and have been using my passion for the humanities with children of all ages. From creating education material in Savannah to teaching in Washington D.C., I have taught and researched at many institutions such as Amore Learning and Beauvoir Elementary School, to name a few. I am happy to be at Varsity Tutoring to expand my teaching options and meet more promising students interested in learning.

My interests include creative writing, storytelling, wilderness adventures and caring for our four-leggd friends at the animal hospital where...

...in Math. Since graduation, I have taught seven years as a special education teacher in an elementary school, tutored students after school in reading and math, at home tutoring, and ran a program for high school credit recovery in that district.

I believe that when given the proper support and guidance, all students can be successful. As a current educator, it is important to help build a student's growth mindset so that they can accept challenges and work through mistakes. It is my mission to help all students work to their fullest potential.

I love watching students succeed and find their passion for learning--understanding concepts can be fun, and having the tools to understand makes all the difference!

Telling a personal narrative or writing a "Why X school"...

...Corps, I attended a total of 6 months of training that covered topics including cross-cultural skills, lesson planning, teaching methods, coaching, project-based-learning, informal education, and classroom management. I learned to develop teaching materials using little resources. Through training and experience, I realized the importance of tailoring teaching methods to an individual student's learning needs. I always consider how a topic can be approached from a different perspective - one that considers the student's learning style...

My goal is to help my students enjoy learning and to feel as confident as possible in subjects where they experience difficulties. I aim to set my students up for "small wins" as they master a more challenging subject, so that they can derive greater confidence and a sense of accomplishment as they learn.

...or having children and others provide shade - giving protection to others from the harsher elements of life. A person who is a shade tree looks for ways to serve others by providing shelter, i.e. a ride to work or just a few meals because funds are tight. Even in adverse circumstances, I have always been a shade tree and my desire to become a teacher goes back over 30 years. Currently, I am a...

...I have developed strong test taking skills and believe I can share them with the students who are preparing to take such an important test. In the academic realm, I have narrowed these interests down into two majors: Print Journalism and Statistics. I have yet to land on a career path that perfectly combines the two, but I am optimistic about my future in both fields. Print might not be the best word to describe...

...and I enjoy sharing that with others. I like to tailor my tutoring style to each individual student. We all learn differently and we are all motivated differently. Some students need help memorizing material while others need help learning how to focus and be efficient. I believe it is my job as a tutor to find the best method for each individual. Besides creating scientific experiments and sharing my love for knowledge, I really enjoy...
