...as a tutor for all levels of German and for introductory levels of Government throughout my time at Skidmore, and I'm continuing to tutor outside of college because it's something that I love to do! I'm fascinated with the German language and culture, and I love being able to help others learn it with me. I started my fascination in the 7th grade (about 11 years ago!), and have been lucky enough to spend time...

Hi there! I am a Boston resident who has been teaching for over 6 years, and I love working one-on-one with students. Math is my favorite subject but I am interested in tutoring for any subject ranging from Kindergarten to Algebra and Geometry.

...for students entering high school or preparing to enter college. Preparing for standardized tests can represent a stressful and frustrating time for many students. I work closely with each student to make the most of their time and bring out their very best. I am enthusiastic about learning and hope to instill the same appreciation in each student I teach. In my free time I like to read, run, and play competitive tennis.

...at both Boston University during undergrad and Tufts University for my masters. After much thought, I deviated from a medical school track to pursue a career in the medical device industry. My love for math and science started around middle school, and I was strongly influenced by my teachers. Through tutoring, I hope to be a similar influence. I really enjoy working with students of all ages (elementary to grads!) In my spare time, I...

...to think of it this way - science is about understanding the world around us, which we access and make beautiful through literature. I have always enjoyed making these subjects as fun for my students to learn as they are for me to teach. My goal in teaching is to foster in my students a fiery curiosity, and enthusiasm for learning and critical thinking, and confidence in asking questions. In my free time, I enjoy...

...Boston, I wanted to continue the work I was doing. I love teaching students of all levels, and I am excited to work with a broad range of students through Varsity Tutors. I want to become a high school teacher, but tutoring is something that is so unique in that you get to work with one student and learn their every strength and weakness. I look forward to working with any student who needs my...

...to school for a Ph.D. in biomedical engineering. My research is focused on helping stroke survivors and arm amputees get better physical therapy results. I have 2 B.S. degrees and an M.S. For fun I do martial arts, read, and play pub trivia and board games with friends. I am an avid stamp collector as well. I also (sort of) like to travel. Hate the travel part, but enjoy myself once I get there :)....

...English, Literature, and Writing. In helping students with reading and writing skills, I enjoy using multiple different approaches to develop a well-rounded understanding of the techniques, while making the sessions fun. I'm a strong proponent of keeping studying dynamic.

...helped students develop close reading strategies across the humanities, particularly in the area of U.S. History, one of my personal favorite subjects. My approach to tutoring tends to revolve around questions; I often begin sessions simply by having the student describe what it is they wish to gain from the time we have and then changing our focus accordingly. Outside of academia my hobbies/interests include reading, screenwriting, classical Hollywood cinema (Hitchcock in particular), cooking, and...

...captivating depending on its presentation and understanding its application to our daily lives and place in the world around us. I believe that successful tutoring happens when a dialogue takes place. I won't hold your hand through a problem, instead opting to ask pertinent questions which guide you in the right direction so that you can blaze your own path. I look forward to working with you and helping you to achieve all of your...

...to understand, it touches on experiences and emotions that are common to us all. While all students have different learning styles, they also all have the ability to learn and enjoy education. Particularly in the global society, education and the ability to think critically are essential foundations for success in high school, college, and beyond. Outside of teaching, I enjoy reading, biking, kayaking, racquetball, all Pittsburgh sports, and spending time with my wife and family.

...steps, and make progress. With progress comes enthusiasm, and eagerness to make those steps their own -- that is when they soar! While I've worked most extensively with middle school students, I have worked with elementary school students in after-school English Language Arts programs, and taught 9th and 10th grade English during my graduate training. I've enjoyed working with students at each of these levels; it has enhanced my practice, encouraging me to identify the...

...tutor not only teaches the material, but also helps students to become more effective learners. I often provide real-world examples to help students get excited about concepts. Also, I use practice problems so that my students can see their own improvement and gain confidence. These strategies help students to become better lifelong learners, and their benefits extend beyond the subjects I am teaching. In addition to teaching and learning, I love to exercise, play the...

Beyond fixing grammar and punctuation, I love to help students improve the quality of their analysis, structure and sense of their arguments, and transitions between ideas.

I have worked hard to build holistic environments which encourage questioning, student-created content, and a consistent focus on language processing. Now, on a more casual note, I love traveling and have done it extensively throughout North America, Asia, and Europe. I also love to bake, am extremely extroverted, and have been...
