An MBA in Finance and Management means Hari spent years building financial models that run on the exact algebraic machinery college algebra courses test — solving systems of equations for break-even analysis, manipulating exponential functions for compound interest projections, and interpreting graphs of cost and revenue functions. He connects abstract topics like logarithmic properties and polynomial operations to the business scenarios where they actually matter, which tends to make the material stick for students who wonder why they need it.

I am graduated from Penn State University in Industrial Engineering in 2017. I've tutored ever since I was in high school, and I love helping people! I like to help my students understand math (and other topics) instead of just doing it blindly. My goal is to help my students improve their math (and other topics) and build skills that will help them find learning easier in the future! Fun fact, I used to work for Disney and I like to salsa dance!

Polynomial operations, rational expressions, and systems of equations can feel like a sudden leap in abstraction for students entering college algebra. Matthew pairs a Johns Hopkins math foundation with graduate-level statistical training, which means he can show students not just how to solve a system but why elimination or substitution works — and where these tools reappear in more advanced coursework.

Medical school at UCF keeps Kevin immersed in quantitative problem-solving — dosage calculations, pharmacokinetics models, and enzyme kinetics all run on the same algebraic machinery that college algebra courses drill, from exponential and logarithmic functions to systems of equations. His human biology degree from UCSD plus experience as a biology TA mean he's spent years translating abstract algebraic steps into concrete reasoning for students who don't think of themselves as "math people." Rated 4.9 by students.

Neuroscience coursework is full of algebraic modeling that most students never think about — dose-response curves built on logarithmic functions, exponential decay in neural signal processing, and systems of equations describing network dynamics. Evan brings that applied perspective to college algebra, unpacking topics like function behavior and logarithmic properties by connecting them to the quantitative problems he's actually worked through in his neuroscience degree. Rated 5.0 by students.

Debugging code in Java and C++ is really just algebra in disguise — isolating variables, tracing how functions transform inputs, and testing edge cases — so Hassan's computer science coursework at UCF keeps his algebraic reasoning sharp and practical. He breaks down problems like solving systems of equations or simplifying rational expressions into the same logical, step-by-step process he'd use to trace through a program. Rated 5.0 by students.

I'm not tutoring or buried in my textbooks, you will either find me rock climbing at the Triangle Rock Club, playing Ultimate Frisbee, working on my car, or enjoying the great outdoors (beaches, mountains, forests--you name it, I love it). On rainy weekends I enjoy tinkering with computers and old electronics, playing Pokemon, or picking at my guitar.

I am an interdisciplinary educator with an Ed.M. from the Harvard Graduate School of Education and a B.A. from Dartmouth College. My background is primarily in integrated arts learning and museum education and I specialize in visual arts, history and art history, and object-based learning. In all subjects, I take a creative, inquiry-based and learner-centered approach, designing opportunities for each unique individual to meet their learning goals.

I am a recent graduate from a masters program in biostatistics at Columbia University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in biological sciences, with a focus in neurobiology at Northwestern University. In August, I will be starting a doctoral program in biostatistics at NYU. I was a teaching assistant at Columbia University in my department and also have tutored graduate students and undergraduates privately as well. My primary areas of tutoring are math and statistics coursework in addition to math sections on standardized tests such as the GRE and GMAT. I am very passionate about helping students feel more confident and excited about math. In my spare time, I enjoy running, playing piano, and spending time with friends and family.

I am a graduate of Wesleyan University, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in Sociology with High Honors. With eight years of experience working in education, I've tutored students in math, science, history, and English, as well as helped students prepare for standardized tests. I've guided adults towards passing the US Citizenship Exam and taught English in India, where I lived for six months. Whenever I work with a student I personalize the lessons to fit their particular learning style, since I know every student is unique and having the right fit can make all the difference in making learning fun and effective. My strengths are tutoring the social sciences and humanities, as well as making math and standardized tests approachable to students that normally don't like those subjects. In my spare time I like traveling, spending time in the outdoors (climbing & backpacking), meditation, and playing soccer. Next fall I will be beginning my PhD in Education at Harvard University.

I am a rising sophomore at Harvard College and am about to declare as a Mechanical Engineering concentrator, working towards a Bachelor of Science degree. I've always enjoyed sharing my knowledge with my peers and those around me and have done so in both formal and informal settings. I've been a tutor for both Math and Spanish programs in high school and enjoyed the strides I made with students. I am willing to tutor any subject I have a background in, but am strong in mathematics, the sciences, Spanish, history, writing, and ACT prep. I enjoy teaching mathematics most due to the joy I can see in children once they master a topic and can answer even pointed questions meant to stump them, and maybe even put their knowledge to real world use. As a tutor, I like to give a strong foundation to orient my student, and then gradually grant them more freedom and independence until they can feel themselves grasp the concept, pointing out pitfalls or common errors along the way; teachers who used these methods on me always left the most lasting impressions. Outside of my studies, I really enjoy listening to music, both old favorites and new interests, reading classics, and gaming/playing basketball with my friends.

I am proud to be a part of Varsity Tutors! I am originally from San Antonio, TX; I completed my undergraduate education at Rice University in Houston where I received a bachelor's degree in Biochemistry and Cell Biology. Currently, I am in my second year of medical school at Baylor College of Medicine.
