...minor in Spanish. While I tutor a wide variety of subjects, I am most passionate about SAT/ACT Reading and Writing, Spanish, History, and ESOL. I enjoy being a tutor because I love to help students strive for and achieve their goals! I believe every student learns in a different way, which is why I personalize my tutoring approach to fit YOUR needs. I am familiar with the SAT and ACT reading and writing sections, and...

...Environmental Science & Policy to get the most out of my time in graduate school and immerse myself in my classes, the university, and the city. Previously, I graduated from Tufts University with a Bachelor of Science in both Environmental Studies and Geology. I am a PADI certified Divemaster and I’ve been scuba diving all over the world. I have spent time working with special needs children and doing scientific research in labs and in...

...had any friends or family other than my parents and brothers. I worked really hard and good people supported me in my journey. I know how hard getting an education can be and how students can feel overwhelmed with accomplishing their dreams. That is why I would do my best as a Varsity Tutor to influence and help students grow in their journey as productive members of our society. The journey starts from a young...

...many students on the spectrum. Finally, I have been substitute teaching in the Albany, NY area, which renewed my interest in being an instructor/facilitator/guide to struggling students. During this time, I had also tutored an international graduate college student (from Saudi Arabia) in Educational Psychology in preparation for her Early Childhood degree. I felt like this experience opened my eyes even more about cultural differences, and was a challenge that I was prepared to meet.

...tutoring experiences for all ages. I am licensed to teach history, Spanish, and Italian through the state of Massachusetts. I am also trained as a Kaplan SAT and GED instructor. While in college I volunteered as an ESL tutor at a lower income community of single mothers in Boston. At that time I was also a college level tutor for Physics, History, English, Algebra, Psychology and Education at Emmanuel College an other Colleges of the...

...Having just moved to Washington, DC, I am loving getting to know my new home city! Aside from getting lost on the way to and from work, I like to read and write, play soccer, spend time outdoors, and spend time with my friends. I have previous short-term teaching experience in Peru and Spain, and am near-fluent in Spanish. I believe in the power of positive thinking, hard work, and self-confidence. I also believe that...

...wide-range of subjects. I've tutored students who are preparing to take standardized tests (particularly the GED exam) in math, reading and writing, and specific subjects. I also worked for the Yale Spanish Department for four years as a grader and tutor for students in all levels of learning. I also served as a tutor for a summer in Amman, Jordan, teaching English to refugees from the Middle East and North Africa region. My favorite subjects...

...in the Coro program, a graduate-level experiential learning program focused on civic leadership and cross-sector problem solving. My academic background is similarly interdisciplinary, and I tutor in subjects from Spanish to Geometry to SAT Prep. I have a special knack for cracking standardized tests, and I find it very rewarding to help demystify them by teaching students to recognize common strategies used to confuse test-takers. In my 8 years of tutoring, I have found the...

...and work on my own programming projects. I am currently studying iOS app development outside of school, and I hope to soon start building and releasing my own iPhone apps! I am also incredibly passionate about music, and I am learning how to create my own music in Ableton Live. My favorite artists right now are Chance the Rapper and Foster the People, but honestly my answer will probably be different tomorrow!

...I have been tutoring (and directing tutoring programs) for years and am looking forward to working with you to meet your goals! I have spent nearly every year since college tutoring in some capacity, including as a volunteer through my current church. I enjoy the challenge of discerning the best way for each particular student to understand and absorb information, and am always thrilled to see when they regain their confidence in their own abilities.

...am currently a student at Tufts University studying Economics, International Relations, and Communications. I am a writer and president of an online magazine, where I teach and instruct other writers and editors. I began tutoring as a peer tutor during high school for the National Honor Society, covering subjects including Pre-Calculus, Spanish, Algebra, Geometry, Literature, Grammar, and Writing. Since then, I have expanded to cover a multitude of subjects for all ages. I look forward...

...organization, honing my aptitude for the Spanish language through extensive interpretation and translation. Having tutored middle school and high school students in Spanish, SAT preparation, and music, I've recognized that I love helping my students reach their goals in a variety of subjects. Learning can and should be fun and engaging, and I try to share that belief with everyone that I tutor. When I'm not tutoring, I teach yoga, sing, and sit on the...

My goal as a tutor is to both assist students in understanding unfamiliar concepts and foster a love of independent learning. I firmly believe that every student is capable of mastering even the most difficult material with daily practice and quality support.

I'm a Maryland native who loves good music, dramatic movies, and travel. Another one of my favorite things is working with students from all walks of life; I've been happily tutoring and mentoring for more than four years. I practice student-centered tutoring, which means I like to spend a little more time in the beginning trying out various learning techniques (written, oral, movement-based) to discover which best helps my student succeed.

"Teaching makes me stay in a sort of state of enlightment." I have been a language facilitator for over 20 years. I hold a PhD. in Philosophy in Spanish from Florida International Unversity and a Masters of Arts from The University of Florida.... Since not everyone studies language or literature for the same reason, nor learns in quite the same way, I have found that the most effective motivational tool for students is to tailor each...

...I tutored Physics and Calculus and after I graduated I traveled to Russia to get my certificate to Teach English as a Second language and also to teach adults, teenagers and small children where I was also able to teach a Spanish class. I spent the summer in a summer camp in Turkey where I help teenagers and kids with their everyday life and activities in English. While I love Physics and Math, I am...

...individuals with different backgrounds. I started in this career path as a convergence of vocation and fortunate serendipity. Even though I had served my classmates as a peer tutor and freshly out of high school I took in a few students referred by friends and acquaintances, I considered myself too young to set a firm foot on a classroom or any other professional teaching scenario. Yet, the opportunity presented itself when I was called as...

...time Math and Science 3rd grade teacher. I am looking for opportunities to tutor students in the subjects that I consider I am very strong. I speak spanish fluently, that could be helpful. I love using manipulatives with the students, I believe everybody can learn, we as educator must find the way that the students are more capable of acquiring the knowledge. I am here to serve with high quality and high expectations to your...

...to teaching. I strongly believe that a tutor must treat his or her student as a teammate and not as someone who merely needs instruction. The goal of any tutoring session should be to bring out and foster a student's own capacity to understand and excel in a given field, which begins with respect. I am currently pursuing a graduate study in biology- where my interests primarily lie in evolution and bioanthropology.

...and ESL teacher. Recently, I taught university English language learners through the Mexico-U.S. partnership program "Proyecta." Before that, I was halfway around the world teaching American culture and English as a foreign language at a private English school in Anshan, China. It is exciting and challenging for me to teach while immersed in a new cultures and meeting new people! I graduated Magna Cum Laude with my B.A. from Western Washington University in Bellingham, WA....
