I am dedicated to enthusiastic and dynamic teaching as a means of creating and nurturing a lifelong loveof knowledge in children. I have been teaching over seven years high school and middle school students and always encourage my students to take anactive role in their learning.I enjoy reading, sports, and spending time with my family. I am very active in school as a Class Advisor, National Honor Society Advisor, and Community Service Coordinator. I am also an active member of my Sorority (Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc.) as well as in my church community.I look forward to providing any educational services to any student in need of assistance.

Hi everyone! My name is Lauren and I graduated from Arizona State University with degrees in Biological Sciences and Anthropology! I have taught and assisted in primary school classrooms with reading and math help, as well as tutored individually for students aged 7-19. I love education and I hope I can make learning fun and relatable for you. I'm so excited to help you strengthen your academic skills and help you ace your coursework.

I earned my Bachelor's in English from the University at Albany, after transferring here from Boston University. I am currently completing my dissertation in English. I love teaching, tutoring, advising, and working with students. I have taught at the college level for over a decade and was a substitute teacher before that. Tutoring has become a renewed interest for me now that I spend less time in the classroom and more in my advisement and administrative role. Writing, reading, critical thinking, and all forms of learning are a passion for me.

I am a graduate of James Madison University. I double majored in English Literature and Arabic. In college, I started tutoring students of all ages. I assisted them in various areas of study, including essay and Arabic grammar. After college, I worked at a refugee center with children of immigrants. I helped them to adjust to a new environment, while simultaneously adapting to the public school curriculum. I am also a certified ESL/TESOL teacher and have experience teaching groups of students as well as providing individual lessons.Working in different environments, with a diverse range of students, encouraged me to explore more creative tutoring methods in order to understand and communicate ideas. Through my experience as a tutor, I developed a multifaceted approach to teaching and learning; a style that is adaptable and uniquely catered to each individual personality. I have found that humor and games are particularly effective in motivating students to achieve in subjects they may otherwise find dull or abstract.While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about languages and literature. I have spent much of my life traveling abroad and have a deep affinity for culture. Some of my hobbies are painting and drawing and playing music; I also love dancing and hiking.

I am a graduate of the Arizona State University with a Bachelor of Arts in Elementary Education. Since graduating I have taught and coached both students as well as teachers in all levels of elementary school. My work has been primarily in Title 1 schools and with many students who are learning English as a second language. In the past two years I have worked as a Math Interventionist and Instructional Coach supporting students to accelerate their achievement as well as supporting teachers in best practices for assisting struggling students and enriching high performing student success. This past year I worked as an OSPI Math Fellow for the Puget Sound Region and currently hold a Washington State Teaching Certificate as well as working towards a National Board Certification.My passion lies in building foundations for students, regardless of their station of understanding, so that they have the confidence and drive to accelerate their achievement. Every child deserves access to an equitable education and as an educator, I strive to provide quality support to every student. Above all, learning should be fun! I believe it both motivates and inspires. I enjoy encouraging students to take control of their own learning and it begins with self confidence. In my spare time, I love drawing My Little Pony pictures with my daughter and watching my son bravely transition from crawling to a very shaky walk! It is a very exciting “work in progress!”I look forward to the opportunity to meet with you and your child. I am confident that with rigorous and engaging encouragement we will together accelerate academic achievement as well as cultivate a love of learning.

In 2007, I graduated from The City College of New York with a double major in English, specializing in Literature, and Black Studies. The objective of both these majors allowed me to broaden my scope in how I looked at and interacted with the world around me. I graduated with honors and continued my vocation in education immediately taking an offer in working at the college's Child Development Center. This place was magical! A montessori style setting that allowed children to become fully engaged through the exploration of art, music and play. I continued working in the education field, expanding my role as a Teaching Artist working with children in elementary, middle and high school (including specialized schools). The goal was to empower and enrich positive youth development in an interactive and safe environment that featured life skills, health awareness and character development.For the past 7 years I have been working very closely with middle school students in helping them catch up to grade level academics: reading, writing, math, etc. In contained classroom settings, I was able to recognize, connect and assess students' individual needs. I believe every child is a genius, and my job and reward is to help their confidence in bringing their success to light.My career as an educator has been going strong for 14 years. I am not only passionate about teaching, but confident that I can be a great benefit to your child's growth.

I am a graduate of Truman State University in Kirksville, MO. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and I will be receiving my Masters of Arts in Education with emphasis in Elementary Education December 12. Since returning home to St. Louis, I have been student teaching in a first grade classroom. I have experience with tutoring at all ages, from first grade to college-level. I tutor a broad range of subjects, but I am most passionate about Math, English, Literature, and Essay Writing. My favorite subject to tutor would be Math. I love seeing students have that "aha!" moment when a math problem finally makes sense. I also have experience with ACT Test Preparation. I have a love for learning, and I try to instill this passion in all of my students. In my spare time, I enjoy playing tennis, reading, being crafty, and watching all St Louis sports.

Greetings! I recently graduated from the University of Tulsa with my Master of Arts in Industrial and Organizational Psychology. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Rutgers University in 2014. Training and teaching have always been a passion of mine, and that's why I'm here. My tutoring, teaching, and mentoring experience traces back 5 years. I was a mentor and tutor for the Rutgers Future Scholars program when I was at Rutgers, which involved working with students in 8th through 12th grade on reading, writing, math, science, and also things like professional development, job searching, college preparation, and standardized test preparation. During my senior year at Rutgers I also worked with another program called Ignite, which was another collaborative program between Camden city schools and Rutgers University. My responsibilities with those students involved after school tutoring and facilitating outside recreational activities. Those students were in 4th through 8th grade.For the past two years during my graduate studies, I was an academic counselor at the University of Tulsa's Center for Student Academic Support, where I worked with at-risk students and students with disabilities on skills such as time management, organization, study habits, and procrastination. I also helped some of these students with standardized test preparation, mostly for the GRE because it is what I'm most familiar with.My experience has covered the gamut of all demographics. I have worked with students as young as 4th grade all the way up to adult, non-traditional students. I have worked with students of all different backgrounds and socioeconomic statuses. I take an individual, student-focused approach to tutoring in order to ensure that the student is learning and making progress at their own pace and that they are comfortable with the material.Preferences/specialties as far as subjects go are most certainly reading and writing, college essays, study skills and organization, and statistics. As far as hobbies go, I'm originally from the East Coast, so I'm a football, baseball, and hockey fanatic, I like crossword puzzles to untangle the cobwebs in the morning, I've hiked the Appalachian Mountains, and I also like playing guitar (although I'm not very good at it yet).

Since graduating from Columbia University, I have spent the past three years working in a high performing public elementary charter school located in New York City. For two years, as a Teach for America corps member, I taught 4th grade in both a General Education and in an ICT Setting. During this time, I completed my Master of Arts in Education from Relay Graduate School of Education, graduating with distinction. As a teacher, I led my students to achieve over a 70% pass rate on the rigorous Common Core ELA Assessment, and over a 90% pass rate on the Common Core Math Assessment. This past school year I was an Assistant Principal in my school, overseeing our K-2 instruction for four months and our third and fourth grade instruction for six months. As an Assistant Principal, I prepared our teachers to implement our curriculum in both math and literacy, as well as developed and coached our teachers to better improve their instruction. As such, I have extensive knowledge of the Common Core Standards in both Math and Literacy for the elementary grades, with particular expertise in the third and fourth grade standards. In addition to my ability to tutor elementary aged students, as an undergraduate student at Columbia I tutored middle school aged students through the Double Discovery Center. I have a strong background in the humanities and in writing, and have had demonstrated success in preparing students for standardized tests. With my background in teaching and leadership in a school setting, coupled with my skills gained as a student at Relay, I have developed strategic instructional moves that have led my students to find success across subject matters. I approach my work with each student with the understanding that he or she might need different supports to make academic gains; as a teacher and an Assistant Principal, I differentiated instruction to both support my lower performing students, and simultaneously push my high performing students to exceed expectations.My passion for education and student success, in addition to my ability to form strong relationships with my students, will help me find success with you or your student. Outside of my work in education, I love taking advantage of all that the city has to offer from visiting museums and seeing plays, to exploring unknown neighborhoods and finding new restaurants, I am always seeking out new adventures in New York!

After completing a two year service as a Peace Corps Volunteer in West Africa, I earned my teaching credentials in both English and Special Education and taught in Philadelphia for four years. I recently relocated to sunny San Diego with my Master's degree in Education in hand and tutoring experience under my belt. English and Math are my strong suits, and I'm excited to put my tutoring skills to use through Varsity Tutors.
