...MFA at Columbia University. On the professional front, I have served editorial roles at Standard & Poor's, Encore Magazine, and Untitled. These experiences taught me the key role that written communication plays outside of academia, and the universal value of sharpening that skill.

Only...

Hello everyone! My name is Rosie and I am so excited to be a Varsity Tutor. I have had years of professional medical field experience, and I have attended Long Island University. Together, we can become better versions of ourselves on this platform. I am an avid learner, and no matter how many experiences I have had, I am always willing to keep learning and growing!

...I will continue to avidly tutor these subjects. At the end of the day, I just have experience tutoring. I know how it works and how to get results. Most times the student's actual problems aren't addressed and the interaction between student and tutor is very passive and does not garner results. I work with the student and ensure that all concepts are thoroughly ingrained before moving on to the next one. When I'm not...

As a graduate of the University of Chicago and a current Columbia Law student, I bring a wealth of academic experience and knowledge to the table. My expertise lies in guiding students through the LSAT and the GRE, two crucial exams that can pave the way to their dream graduate schools, just as they have for me. I am dedicated to empowering aspiring...

...their fullest. Striving to conquer that one topic or finish this one essay allows students to grow academically while feeling like they can really succeed in achieving tangible goals. Though I'm interested in a broad range of subjects, I especially enjoy English and Literature. In particular, I have a lot of fun helping students develop the specialized skills necessary for success on the SAT. Outside of academics, I spend my time reading, acting, hiking, and...

...help instill confidence in my students so that they know they have what it takes to succeed! In addition to tutoring, I enjoy running, dancing, playing the piano, and performing in theatre productions. I have a very strong work ethic when it comes to both my academic and artistic pursuits, and I hope to encourage that kind of work ethic in my students as well because I have found that being disciplined leads to great...

I've been tutoring formally and informally throughout the past seven years; during that time, I've developed my belief in a "person-first" approach to tutoring. To succeed, you need more than just some academic knowledge -- you need the right mindset and a confidence in your own abilities as well. I try to instill that into my students.

...Buddhist Studies. I tutor literature, grammar, phonetics, essay writing, philosophy, art history, Spanish, and public speaking. I believe that education should foster the mutual development of student and teacher and that the best tools to cultivate such radical, coterminous growth are patience, attention to difference, and respect for detail. Since graduating, when I am not tutoring I am working on experimental audio-visual collage and playing music in the electronic duo, Sky Prison.

...name is Samuel Davidson (He Him His), I am a 21 year old History Major enrolled at Oberlin College from Westchester New York. During my time in highschool I had a lot of trouble learning from tutors because information was often displayed in terms of lists to be memorized. I find that the best way to tutor is not through memorization, but through helping the client to understand the core concept and how these concepts...

...diligent, compassionate instruction. I have been a tutor since I was in the eighth grade and have helped my younger siblings and cousins with homework ever since I was a child. I come from a single-parent home, but was a very driven student who graduated as valedictorian of one of America's top public high schools in a highly competitive STEM program, with 16 AP classes under my belt. I was also a National Merit Scholar....

...look forward to tutoring in any language-related capacity, whether it's in reading/writing test prep, perfecting that killer college essay, or working toward a higher proficiency in Spanish. My enthusiasm for the written and spoken word inspires pupils to discover that reading and writing are art forms available to everyone, and my teaching philosophy is based on the old adage: "I hear and I forget; I see and I remember; I do and I understand." In...

...My favorite thing about tutoring is helping a student figure out how to do things by himself/herself. It's super rewarding! I am an excellent tutor because I am enthusiastic and generous. I do not punish mistakes, but try to encourage the development of good study habits, rather than just feeding answers. With writing, I believe it is most important to give constructive criticism that a writer can use to develop his or her style further....

...essay writing and critical reading. I am an extremely positive and patient tutor, but that doesn't mean I'm easy. To the credit of my students, I've witnessed much improvement in their study skills and reading comprehension. I firmly believe hard work and education will make a person the best he or she can be. I work as hard as I can to get my students to a place where they understand the best ways for...
