Kathryn
Creative Writing Tutor • +26 Subjects
I am a graduate of New York University. I hold a bachelor's degree in Applied Psychology, and I graduated cum laude (and a semester early). Applied Psychology is a research-heavy field and trains students in research and writing skills. Before I decided to major in psychology, I studied English, and took several English and writing classes. Currently, I plan to enroll in graduate school and pursue educational psychology. I believe that education is the cornerstone of our society, and is important for giving children ample opportunities in the future. I feel it is my purpose to help create a safe, positive, and productive educational environment for all children. Before joining Varsity Tutors, I did in-person tutoring for an elementary school. Here, I tutored in all classroom subjects, including math, science, and language arts. Personally, my favorite subjects to teach are reading and writing, because I like hearing students' interpretations of the stories they read and seeing their creative sides come alive. When I'm tutoring, I try my best to be encouraging and meet students where they're at. I am a big fan of student-led learning as a way to build confidence. It's important to me that I keep a positive disposition at all times. When a student is working with me, they realize that it is okay to make mistakes, because that is how we learn and improve. I would never put a student down if they weren't grasping a concept, but instead seek a different strategy to help them understand it. It is important to recognize that everyone learns in different ways, and appealing to that student's learning style is the most effective way to help them learn. Academia is a huge part of my life, but outside of that I enjoy cooking, baking, and watching new films.

Vijval
ACT Math Tutor • +7 Subjects
Hello! I am currently in my fourth year at Michigan State University. I am majoring in physiology with a minor in entrepreneurship. I have tutored for about 10 years now and have taught math to students of many different grade levels. I did well on the ACT and received a near-perfect score in the math section. I am well-knowledged and have experience teaching elementary, middle, and high school level math, Pre Algebra, Algebra 1, Algebra 2, and ACT Math.My goal for teaching is to make sure my students understand the topic at hand and for them to gain a love for the subject itself. I enjoy seeing my students learn the concepts and how to apply them in real-world settings. What I love most about tutoring is watching my students gain confidence in their learning abilities. I maintain a pretty flexible schedule. Feel free to contact me for tutoring; I am available for in-person and online tutoring. I'm sure we can arrange a time to meet!
Joanne
10th Grade Reading Tutor • +48 Subjects
As a secondary high school English teacher, I'm well-versed in teaching students with a wide range of skills and learning styles. I graduated with Honors from Santa Clara University where I received my Bachelor of Arts in English with a specialization in Teaching English. In May 2015, I will graduate with my Masters in Educational Studies from the University of Michigan. I am passionate about teaching students to become critical readers and writers who use their communication skills to reach their goals and connect with others. I have over seven years of tutoring experience and have tutored students in reading and writing from middle school to the graduate level.While teaching English is my passion, I've also studied Spanish for over ten years and even lived abroad in Barcelona. I engage students with language using teaching methods that first interested me in studying the language — through multimedia, culture study, and conversation, I enjoy teaching students not only how to master the language but also how to love the language itself. I also have a special place in my heart for helping clients prepare for tests like the SAT, ACT, and GRE. From personal experience, I know these tests can be intimidating and anxiety-inducing; I would love to help others prepare to tackle test anxiety and difficult test questions!When tutoring, I seek to engage and challenge students while also providing a safe atmosphere for students to take intellectual risks and explore their curiosity. I think the best teaching methods are built on modeling thinking strategies — that is, if students can learn how to think in different ways, they can transfer the critical thinking and study skills they've learned in one subject to master others. I love teaching, and I am passionate about helping others learn. In my spare time, I enjoy photography, creative writing, watercolor painting, and playing guitar. In warmer weather, I also enjoy rock climbing and camping.

I went to the University of Detroit Jesuit High School, a highly regarded college prep high school in Detroit, and Wayne State University, where I graduated in 2012 with a degree in Film Production. I am a filmmaker with an interest in teaching and interacting with youth. I am very friendly but expect high effort and a positive attitude.

Anthony
College English Tutor • +8 Subjects
I am a graduate of the University of Detroit-Mercy. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Communications with an endorsement for Secondary Education in Speech and Literature focusing on reading comprehension. I am a former middle school Language Arts teacher as well as Operations Manager for a Supplemental Education Program which focused on literacy and the mechanics of proper writing techniques for essays, public speaking, and debates. I have tutored Language Arts for children in the grades of 6 through 9 who have wanted to improve their grammar and reading comprehension, as well as to improve standardized test scores. I have also performed in the capacity of the Facilitator of student academic enrichment, workshops, mentoring, social skills, and life skills. My most enjoyable experiences come from helping struggling students achieve their goals of better GPA's and better standardized test scores. I am very passionate in the belief that all children deserve the attention of a teacher or academic coach without judgement and an educational partner who is willing to go the extra mile for them to obtain the level of success they strive for. I work tirelessly to extend this philosophy to all of my students. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, going to live theater, chess, and board games such as scrabble and words with friends.
