I am always excited to teach willing students. My philosophy is that there are no hard subjects. Any difficult concept can be broken down into easier, more digestible content, based on how well a tutor can understand their students. And that is what I believe I can help achieve with any student of mine of any age.

I am well versed in both subject areas. My student evaluations were always very high, and I focused on making History fun and relevant to things happening today. I try to take history from boring facts to interesting connections that tell a story and explain why events come about.

I am thrilled to be a part of the Varsity Tutors team. I am certified to teach English grades 7-12 in CT, I have my master's degree in English Literature, and my bachelor's degree in English with a concentration in secondary education. I have tutored and taught in college, high school, and middle school environments. Most recently, I held high school teaching positions teaching 9th and 11th grade English. In my freshman classes, we focused on composition, and finding a voice in writing. We worke...More

I am a caring, passionate, and innnovative English language arts and writing teacher who is ready to help children with any and all of their verbal, reading, grammar, or writing needs. I am a graduate of Providence College, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in English, taking many pre- and post-1800 English courses, including Victorian (19th c.) literature, Shakespeare's Tragedies and Romances, and a survey course on Geoffrey Chaucer and his contemporaries. I also took many elective courses i...More

I am currently a medical student at Mount Sinai School of Medicine. I completed my undergraduate degree in 2013 at Columbia University, where I majored in English and Biology. After graduation, I spent a year working at a pediatric HIV clinic in Lesotho on a Princeton in Africa fellowship, and later, I completed my Master's in Public Health at University College Dublin on a Mitchell Scholarship.

I am about to embark on a second graduate degree in Theological Studies at Harvard. As both a teacher and a student, I thoroughly understand the value of loving learning for its own sake.

I am never happier than when I am teaching. Whether it's helping a student through a difficult literary passage, reviewing the importance of grammar and mechanics, revising a writing assignment, or discussing philosophy, helping students achieve their dreams is always an uplifting and inspiring experience. But aside from the personal satisfaction I feel when I teach, I always ensure that my student comes away from a session a more confident, inquisitive, patient, articulate, and motivated indivi...More

I am dedicated to helping students of all ages to grow and to have a deeper understanding of all areas of English Language Arts. As someone that once struggled with reading comprehension, it is important to me that students gain the skills that they need in order to be successful and to be able to recall what they just read. I can remember my teachers asking me to read aloud in class. I was always extremely uncomfortable and self conscious about it. I don't want any student, young or old, to fee...More

I am an International Studies and South Asian Studies student at Emory University, but I'm starting to wonder if I should have been an Education major! I've been tutoring students of all ages for the past four years, and I truly enjoy it. I'm happy to say that my students have taught me as much as I've taught them.

I am a Varsity Tutor. I graduated from Lipscomb University with a Bachelor's Degree in English Education in 2012. I did my student teaching at a middle school and a high school in metro Nashville. I worked with students ranging from 8th grade middle school students to seniors in high school. I believe I can help students by relating the material they are covering to them in a way that is both interesting and informative. I will work with students to make sure they better understand anything they...More
