...forward to getting a Masters Degree in Biostatistics. From 7th grade to 9th grade, I have been working with elementary students on subjects such as Math, English, and Writing, including electives. In high school, I have tutored high school students in math subjects such as Algebra, Calculus, Physics, Latin, and Chinese. In College, I have tutored college students in Calculus I & II, Multivariable Calculus, Statistics, Biochemistry, Algebra, Physics, Microbiology, Chinese, and more. Although I...

...I was doing. I love teaching students of all levels, and I am excited to work with a broad range of students through Varsity Tutors. I want to become a high school teacher, but tutoring is something that is so unique in that you get to work with one student and learn their every strength and weakness. I look forward to working with any student who needs my help, and helping them to grow to...

...My area of research was in Nuclear Physics and my Thesis topic concerned exotic decays in Nucleii which means I got to analyze radiation given off by a radioactive source and essentially work backwards from these products to put the puzzle pieces together and get an idea of how the particles within a nucleus react when gaining or losing energy. It might sound boring, but it is actually pretty cool when you think about how...

...My main passions are Mathematics and Computer Science, although I have a strong academic background in several areas including English and the physical sciences. I have been tutoring since high school and have experience working with all ages in a number of subjects. I have the most experience working with high school and middle school students in mathematics. My other teaching experiences include tutoring in English and computer skills in an ESOL classroom for refugees,...

...I am also an alumnus of Brandeis University where I attained a Masters in Software Engineering. After graduation, I worked as a derivatives trader for over a decade. I was fortunate to teach over a dozen classes in statistics, probability and decision making. Given my rigorous training in the sciences, my teaching philosophy revolves around optimization and iteration. I am a firm believer that different students learn in different ways. As a tutor, I believe...

...focuses not only on the subject matter at hand but on the process of solving problems and reaching answers. While working with me, my students improve their math, writing, and reading comprehension skills, as well as their organizational skills and study practices. In my work in City Year, 100% of my focus list students improved their math course grade by at least one letter grade, and 80% improved from a failing grade to a B...

...for three consecutive years. I have always been dedicated to developing a passion of mathematics in young people, especially young women. In the last year, I have visited 52 different towns and cities across much of Western Europe while living in France. While there, I was an English Teaching Assistant in Tours, located along the banks of the Loire river. I taught at a school of predominately underprivileged students of North African descent and was...

...and mathematics then led me to choose a career in chemical engineering. In 2013, I graduated from the University of Maryland’s A. James Clark School of Engineering with a Bachelor of Science in Chemical Engineering. During my final year of college, I began tutoring elementary, middle and high school students in all their subjects but focused strongly on math and science courses. I understand that these subjects can be challenging for most students but once...

...and presentations. I have worked extensively with children, accumulating five years of experience as a camp counselor in addition to several years as a swim instructor and coach to all ages. I was raised in an academic household, and although I struggled as a young student, I learned to embrace academic challenge and thrived as a student in high school and college, and I am now preparing to continue my education in graduate school. My...

...my B.S., also in Biomedical Engineering. During my tenure at Boston University I was responsible for teaching two undergraduate level engineering courses, requiring me to teach in both large classroom and one-on-one settings. I am most comfortable teaching quantitative sciences, although I also have experience teaching standardized tests and more qualitative subjects such as Biology or Chemistry. I am a born and raised Bostonian, having grown up in Reading, MA. I am a proud product...
