...was previously hard to them, is one of the great joys in my life. I not only have experience working with peers, but people of various ages as well. My favorite subjects to tutor are Algebra and Computer Science courses, specifically Java and HTML. Math has always been one of my favorite subjects in school.

Hello, I am Diana! I am a college student whom loves to teach and see students reach their highest potential!

I enjoy teaching, helping students gain knowledge, skill, and thereby power. I especially like the "aha" moments when students grab ahold of an idea and it becomes personal. (5 months later!) And I really like this company. Varsity Tutors is an awesome company to work for and be associated with.

...free or reduced-price lunches. Many of my U-City friends had only one parent raising them, forcing them to work long hours after school to help contribute to the family income. Although U-City was underfunded, the one consistent support that my classmates had was their teachers. U-City's teachers were always there as academic guides, but they often served as parental figures and life coaches when they needed to be. They recognized that, as teachers of underprivileged...

I have been a teacher and learner all my life. I can help with math and science from elementary grades through high school. I am especially good with chemistry and pre-algebra.

...sixth grade. While I am capable of tutoring for a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about teaching reading and mathematics. I believe a day without learning is a day wasted, and I hope to impart this love of learning and hunger for knowledge to my students by helping them to discover knowledge rather than imparting that knowledge to them. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, gardening, Cardinals baseball, baking, and paper...

...excited by the opportunity to help students maximize their learning, knowledge, and use of the Spanish language. A majority of my tutoring experience consists of one-on-one sessions. I find that this practice helps provide the student with the confidence necessary to more freely speak the language without judgment. More importantly, it allows for students to receive more a personalized education and on-the-stop correction. Outside of work, I enjoy sports (especially soccer), traveling, music, and writing.

I received a Bachelor of Arts in Modern Languages with a concentration in Spanish. I have lived in both Madrid, Spain and in Montevideo, Uruguay.

I am currently learning Italian and Portuguese.

I'm a passionate Missouri Educator and it would be my honor to serve students who are desiring to improve their skills and/or their families who are pushing students to soar to new heights. I have experienced the truth of "hard work paying off" both in my own life and in my classroom. I am prepared to support learners to help them reach their educational goals!

...then, I have decided to change my major to education. Anytime I tutor, the goal is to help the student understand the material and understand the most effective way to learn the material for them. I want to be able to help as many students as possible with these techniques. My whole life has been centered around reading, writing, and STEM subjects, so I have learned many different ways to comprehend and understand these subjects....

...hands-on work to help students understand these challenging subjects. I like to use my internship and research experiences to provide real examples of how concepts discussed in lectures apply to conducting science experiments and interacting with the natural world. For example, I interned at Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory of Columbia University studying the effects of nutrient cycling on nutrient cycling to DNA of marine microbes, which has helped me with explaining difficult concepts in Genetics. I...

...and lead reading intervention. My first time tutoring was a couple years ago where I privately tutored a child during my clinical for my reading specialist certification. Currently I teach Science and Social Studies in an inner-city middle school in St. Louis. I also lead English and math intervention each week for my middle school students. I am very dedicated to the achievement of youth and will work diligently to make sure students are successful.

I enjoy teaching and helping students understand difficult materials. I bring a unique approach and individualized approach to difficult subjects. I enjoy Spanish, French and English studies, and am entering my senior year for my Bachelors in Spanish and French. I have professional experience correcting and coaching English papers....

...BA in English. After college, I served two years as a mentor to undergrads at the University of Virginia where I witnessed, first-hand, the acute pressures of being a student at a top-30 university. Now, I am a Masters student at Covenant Theological Seminary in St. Louis County. When I am not studying or tutoring I am going on a hike with my wife, reading Harry Potter, or watching basketball. I am both a nerd...

Learning is what goes on inside one's head and teaching is what goes on outside! In my experience this is true across ages and geography and subject matter. However, the tutor plays a critical role in success with the student. I believe it is the confluence of the relationship between the tutor and the student, the tutor's subject matter knowledge, and the methodology utilized that realizes the outcome.

...science with students. I have had the unique opportunity to work with students both in the classroom and out for the last several years. I currently work at a local St. Louis school and strive to create unique STEAM education experiences. Previously, I have taught specialized science classes to students in various schools all around St. Louis for the past 4 years. I also developed and ran an education program relating to Biology, Sustainability, and...

When my children were still at home, I had a day care center in a portion of my home, taking care of special needs children there. After I finished my degree(s), I taught elementary school in a regular classroom, then taught gifted classes to third through eighth graders, taught remedial reading, and then moved up to a position in the central...
