"You are what you repeatedly do. Therefore excellence is not an act but a habit."

As the first academic in my entire, extended family, I was a completely lost college junior, had no plan, no experience, no help and also no clue where to find help. Out of luck, help found me one day and that changed everything. I graduated with honors and moved on to get my PhD. Two decades later, I am still very grateful and helping struggling students with Varsity Tutors is my way to pay it forward. Please do the same one day ;-)Every student's motivation to strive for an education is unique and personal, so are their tutoring needs. I strive to create learning environments that promote clear expectations and scaffolding in order to invite students to structure new knowledge (e.g. in graphic organizers) and connect concepts to their daily lives.I got my entire education in Germany, where I studied a healthy mix of Biology, Engineering and Computer Science called Technical Biology & Bionics (today it's called bioengineering and biomimicry) at the Saarland University, close to France. My PhD in Biology from the RWTH Aachen University in Germany was in the greater field of Biophysics and Bioelectronics.I tutor mainly biology and subjects related to my minors. I was a science teacher in a middle school, a biology teacher in a highschool and currently teach undergraduate biology at the university level. I also teach German classes and was the Vice President of a German-American Society. A few years ago, I developed a new interest in Business and co-founded two tech-startups in Florida. I recently finished a MicroMasters Certificate in Business Foundations from the University of British Columbia using edX.

I have been teaching 7th and 8th-grade math for 15 years. I have also been tutoring math students from 6th grade to 10th grade in math, Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1, and Geometry. I like to let the student drive the tutoring session. If you just want someone to validate your answers, teach you a different way, or just sit and work the problems together, I'm your person! I like to talk about sports and rollercoasters. I don't want to be just your tutor--I want to be your math advocate as you progress through your math classes.

I am a tutor studying applied math at Columbia University. I am interested in discussing various math topics, approaching problems with creativity, and sharing study techniques. I have experience tutoring 3rd - 12th grade math as well as college math, including Algebra, Trigonometry, Calculus, Geometry, and SAT math.

If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough. -Albert EinsteinAfter completing 4 years of work experience as a business valuation analyst and level 3 of the CFA program, I have taken some time to travel (before Covid) and begin teaching online.My expertise is in options, futures, forwards, swaps and other financial derivatives, which I studied both at Middle Tennessee State University and the London School of Economics. I gained valuable tutoring experience in university after being offered a position in the finance lab as a head tutor, and have since found that those skills have translated well to helping business students thrive at Varsity Tutors.While I also tutor other subjects including Spanish and College English, I have found working with professionals seeking designations or motivated college business students looking to get ahead to be a great fit for me.I now work in business development for a venture capital firm whose operators have created over $3.0B in exit value. I help make sure capital flows to the best and brightest entrepreneurs, and that risk-seeking investors are properly rewarded for their bets.I look forward to helping you advance.

I currently hold a BA in Psychology and a MA in Education. For the past 17 years, I have worked in the field of early childhood education. I am passionate about helping students learn, by creating a learning environment that meets their personal needs. I enjoy teaching students according to their learning styles. I have considerable experience working with special education students with IEPs. In the past, I have tutored elementary students in all subjects, high school, and college psychology, and helped future teachers prepare for the Early Childhood Praxis exam.

As a lifelong educator, I am especially interested in seeing the student achieve his/her goals. I am a qualified and certified Reading Teacher and Specialist teaching from ages Pre-K to Adult with credentials in several fields including English as a second language, English Literature, Creative Writing, as well as specific skills in particular programs such as Wilson Reading System. I look forward to working with students in a productive and successful environment.

I graduated with a bachelor's degree in Computer Science from Park University in 2007 later and obtained a master's degree in the same from the Air Force Institute of Technology (AFIT) in 2015. I have been an adjunct instructor since 2016 and currently teaches computer science at the undergraduate level. I am open to tutoring at all levels (6+) in most computer science courses. I have a passion for teaching and helping other reach their potential. I am a firm believer in STEM education and believe it's important that students learn how to evaluate data and make critical decisions based on it.

I am a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania, where I received a Bachelor of Arts inBiology (with a Neurobiology concentration). In high school, as a member of the National Honor Society, I was involved in peer tutoring. I would arrive to school early one day a week and tutor students that needed help with a class (any subject). I can tutor math - up to and including calculus I (AP Calculus AB), biology, chemistry, organic chemistry, and physics. Additionally, having taken both the SAT, SAT Subject tests in Math and Biology, and the MCAT. I can tutor students for these tests as well. My favorite subject to tutor is biology; I find it to be the most interesting science because it deals with life and how living things function (my goal is to go to medical school, so I have a great deal of interest in living things). I like to incorporate real life examples as well as demonstrations into my tutoring to help students better grasp concepts, especially ones that are more abstract (for example, using the analogy of water slides to explain flow dynamics in physics or using different color Skittles to explain mitosis/meiosis in biology). Also, especially for tests like the MCAT, I can talk about the actual test – what to expect on test day, any preparations to make going into the test, what to do the day before the test. I am a huge sports fan, and in my spare time, I love watching and playing sports (I played football in high school and currently play roller hockey). I am a huge fan of all Philadelphia sports teams. Additionally, I like to read, hang out with my friends, watch TV/movies, and occasionally play video games.

I am a dedicated educator with over 20 years of experience. I studied at the University of New Mexico and have earned my Ph.D. in Language, Literacy, and Socio-cultural Studies. I tutor all subject areas for elementary students. I also have years of experience helping all learners with acquiring English skills. I support listening, speaking, reading, and writing. I am bilingual in Spanish and can promote Spanish learning as well. I have a passion for helping people meet their personal and professional goals!
