Teaching mathematics is the best hobby .

I love standardized tests. It might sound weird, but they're usually straightforward, you can sit with them for hours, and, most importantly, you CAN get better at them through practice. That's what I hope to help you do as you prepare for the LSAT, SAT, ACT or any other subject.

...numbers. When I work with a student, I always start by getting to know that person, finding out what they enjoy and what goals they have for themselves. Then I relate the material to those interests, connecting it to things students already enjoy and understand. Learning is so much more fun if it is relevant to things we already love. I also try to create hands-on experiences that we can hold, move, and arrange as...

...when I found out about Varsity Tutors, it seemed like a dream come true! My goal is to help students not only reach their academic goals, but to surpass them. Outside of academics, I'm very passionate about music. I've been playing guitar for most of my life, and have recently begun picking up other instruments, as well. I also love football; I'd mention my favorite team, but why become enemies right off the bat? Video...

...to sign up for more classes. I am a recently returned Peace Corps Volunteer; I spent over a year working in a small school in Namibia (Southern Africa) teaching English, Math, and Computer Skills in a resource-poor environment. I am enthusiastic and creative, and am constantly scanning the latest pedagogical literature to keep abreast of current teaching theories. My strengths lie in verbal expression, although I have a background in science (especially biology) as well....

...styles of learning make me see new perspectives. I mainly teach foreign languages, English, and verbal sections of standardized tests because I am most interested in language and its logic. I have a long background in the arts and literature. I completed a BFA in Painting at the University of Iowa, a JD at the University of Tulsa and an MA in Classics at the University of Kansas. After law school, I practiced law in...

...am a graduate of University of Missouri-Columbia (Mizzou) where I received my Bachelor of Science in Chemical Engineering in 2013. I worked for Procter and Gamble for about five years as a process engineer and project manager. Recently, I obtained my teaching certification which qualifies me to teach math at both the middle and high school levels. I have a strong passion for both math and science, particularly algebra, geometry, trigonometry, calculus, general chemistry and...

...Spanish Language. While in high school, I tutored many students through my high school's tutoring program. I mainly tutor in Math and Spanish (specifically Algebra 1, Pre-Algebra, Algebra 2 and Spanish 1-4). I would describe my teaching style as very different depending on the student I am tutoring because I aim to find the best method of teaching that is most beneficial to each student! Aside from Academics, I enjoy being outdoors, painting, volunteering, playing...

I am passionate about healthy living, mentally and physically.

I think that every human has the potential to learn and succeed in their field of...

...who enjoys rock climbing and nature. I work currently for a large international engineering consulting company and specialize in water engineering. I am a strong believer than learning occurs in a much different way than the traditional lecture method given in schools. Schools are teaching hard facts and not showing students how subjects can be applied to real life. Students miss out on many wonderful realizations in their daily lives because they don't understand how...

...their algebra or chemistry homework and I was glad to help them be successful. Early on, I was attracted to the field of science. I really love knowing how things work, especially on the atomic level. My first feat was understanding the periodic table and finding both rhyme and reason to its madness. This understanding led me to majoring in chemistry. With all of the analytical science under my belt, the math just came naturally....

...math tutor for over a year and tutored kids in math voluntarily throughout high school. Apart from mathematics, I have a deep passion for reading and writing. I served as a writing center tutor in my high school and delved deep into language and literature classes, as well as debate and creative reading and writing, which are all experiences that I am confident I can draw upon for tutoring in these subjects. I strive to...

...My main area of focus is within the English discipline; which is what my Masters of Arts illustrates. This includes subjects such as composition, literature (of any period/genre), grammar/mechanics, history of the English language, public speaking, etc. However, I also have experience in test prep for those that seek higher educational opportunities. I'm happily married (upcoming 4 years in June) and enjoy time with my cat (as well as my wife of course). I look...

...a solid understanding. One of the best ways to help someone on their learning journey is to create a space where they feel comfortable "failing" and asking questions. In order to learn, people need to know that they will not be judged for making mistakes and I certainly do not judge my students for their missteps (like accidentally dropping a negative sign or misspelling a variable name). By creating a friendly, and at times mildly...

...SAT, and I strive to help every student I tutor gain the necessary skills and habits to achieve whatever score they are aiming for. Standardized testing and school in general can be a huge stress on students, and as a tutor I want to help mediate some of that stress by not only better preparing you as a student, but giving you whatever advice I may have to offer to help you feel better about...

...had been a student my entire life, and suddenly, I was not. My eventual goal was (and still is) to earn a teaching certificate, but that is still a ways off. What else could I do? An idea hit me. Just because I am not a student anymore, however, does not mean I can't still dedicate myself to learning. There is no better way to do that than to help others learn too, and that...
