Hi! I'm a self-proclaimed math nerd. I have an extensive background as a chemical engineer so I can also help with chemistry and general engineering concepts. I enjoy learning and encouraging others to develop a passion for learning!

...education and began teaching mathematics in public high schools. I even began an afterschool tutoring program that was highly successful. I love watching the light bulb go off in students, and it is especially gratifying in mathematics because it can sometimes seem so challenging, but it is so rewarding when you finally get it. I'm excited to work with Varsity Tutors to connect with students who may have had trouble with math in the past,...

...peers and teachers for the extra help students need. I enjoy working with youth, I've been described as personal, polite, and respectful, and thrive on working hard to help my students succeed. On a much more personal level, I love music, spending time outside, and hanging out with my two cats, Dini and Minnie - they might even make a guest appearance in our sessions! I can't wait to get to know you, and look...

...I have also discovered a love for Spanish after studying abroad in Spain for a semester and more recently, serving as a medical translator at the Charlottesville Free Clinic. I love learning and teaching equally, truly believing that there is never a limit to knowledge. However, the area I like to teach most is test-taking. I recognize that test-taking can be a daunting endeavor for some students, but by working together, I find that often...

...I can handle in a professional and courteous manner. I love interacting with other and expect everyone to carry their weight in a group project. I previously interned at an outdoor education center, where I had the opportunity to teach 5th grade students about the environment. The students were able to have an overnight adventure while learning about their environment. I was tasked with taking the children on a nature hike, where we discussed multiple...

...unseen or even unknown to many people. My personal philosophy is also my personal philosophy in playing/watching sports: the fundamentals and little things are the big things. Whether it is playing ultimate frisbee, basketball, football, by doing the small things correct and consistently, then we open ourselves to greatness. In addition, being passionate about what is learned and how it is learned, there are so many other opportunities that we cannot even begin to imagine.

Hello! I hold a Bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering and have been passionate about STEM from a young age. I take pride in having developed a strong foundation in Math early on, which I believe is fundamental to success in various science and engineering fields. I apply the same principles of breaking down complex problems into smaller, manageable parts to guide students toward effective solutions.

I just graduated from William and Mary, and I am going to be attending Georgetown Medical School in the fall! I absolutely love science and try to translate that passion into my tutoring. I tutor elementary through college math and science and can also help out with MCAT and ACT test prep. I believe in finding ways of presenting material that fit each student's learning style and making math and science fun.

...like to box, figure skate, and play tennis. I also play the piano and enjoy listening to music. Finally, I am a major foodie and I enjoy traveling to different places to explore new cuisines and learn about diverse cultures. I look forward to tutoring in a wide array of subjects, from languages to essay writing to standardized tests (ranging from SAT and ACT to the USMLE Step 1 test for medical students).

Think you can't? I know you can. I have proven experience that motivated students can learn anything they want when provided with the right opportunity and handed the correct tools. Since 1996 I have had a long, successful history of helping struggling students improve their grades, confidence, and competency in math.

...with students, but I also got to teach entire classes. I taught a wide variety of students- from the most advance 8th graders in the school, to struggling 7th graders with a big attitude. I found the experience incredibly rewarding, and I'd love to continue making a difference by tutoring. I especially enjoy tutoring math- I love coming up with creative ways to make it exciting and fun, while also providing students with a strong...

...been tutoring for 14 years and I have tutored various students on various subjects. The subjects I am currently tutoring are Algebra, Algebra 2, Arithmetic, Elementary Math, Geometry, Pre-Algebra and Physics. My favorite subject to tutor is Math.

As a tutor, I first focus on understanding a student's academic needs and then work with the student to...

...I want them to achieve their full potential, but I make it clear that I am there to support them along their academic journey. My favorite part of teaching math is convincing kids who believe that they cannot succeed at math that they can succeed this confidence building is key. I love tutoring Pre-Algebra, Algebra and Geometry, because these subjects contain so many relevant skills that students must master, not to just succeed in higher...

I have been teaching biology and microbiology at CCBC and Stevenson for a year and a half. I particularly enjoy teaching one-on-one. I am patient and kind and I experience identifying what a person needs (dedication, repetition, or discussion/understanding) to learn different concepts.
