Ten-plus years of tutoring students from elementary through college means Rachelle has seen every stage of ELA development, from early paragraph construction to multi-source essay writing. She breaks down the connection between reading comprehension and written expression, so students learn to pull textual evidence and use it to support a clear thesis.

I am a graduate of the University of Texas at Dallas who is passionate about helping students. I am currently on my gap year before starting medical school this summer and am taking this time to tutor and teach! I have several years of tutoring experience working with K-12 students and adult learners.

I am comfortable tutoring a variety of subjects, I am most passionate about writing and language, and I truly believe that strong writing skills are an asset in every area of life. Through my experience as an after-school program manager, I learned to build relationships and work well with students, parents, and teachers to meet student goals. In response to the pandemic, I quickly learned ways to adapt my educational youth work to a virtual setting. My social work background helps me connect with students on a personal and social-emotional level, which lays a trusting foundation for real growth and learning.

I am a writer who works extensively with historical documents and researcher who embraces learning for life. I love making a subject engaging, interesting and ultimately seeing others succeed in their endeavors.

I love literature and reading and writing -- they've been central to my life since early childhood -- and I hope as a tutor not only to help students improve their skills in these areas but to instill in them a similar kind of lifelong affection for these pursuits. I believe that reading and writing are key not only to enjoying a broadly fulfilling and exciting life but also to performing effectively in virtually any kind of serious job. As a kid, my dream was to become a writer of fiction -- novels and stories -- and I majored in English and creative writing in college. But then it was literature that led my life to take a different, unexpected path. At Princeton, I had to write a senior thesis, and the topic I chose was native American prose literature -- novels, poems and other writings that hugely enhanced the love of nature and wilderness that I had already acquired through hiking and camping trips with my father. Instead of wanting to write fiction, I became an environmental advocate, and wanted to write about wilderness and environmental issues. So, I moved from the East Coast to Montana for graduate school, where I studied wilderness and wildlife management issues and earned a Master's degree in natural resource conservation. For decades ever since I have made my living primarily as a communicator, through writing as well as public speaking. Every job I've had depended on my ability to write well, from working as an editor of technical research papers for the US Forest Service; as communications director for an environmental protection group; as a press secretary in a Presidential campaign; as an international publicist for a PR firm in New York City; as an aide in the Montana Governor's Office; and as a self-employed lobbyist and campaign manager for numerous large corporations and small nonprofit groups. I also taught public and media relations at Carroll College in Montana and have done a fair amount of freelance writing along the way, with essays published in diverse outlets including Western Wildlands, the Journal of Soil & Water Conservation, Range magazine and Playboy. My love of reading and literature has never ceased. I am always reading at least one good book at a time, and I still write almost daily. On the side, I recently have edited two books for publication and have written several grant proposals. I look forward to sharing my passion for learning with students through the Varsity Tutors program.

Through personalized, engaging instruction tailored to each student's unique journey, I am committed to inspiring learners reach their full potential.

I am a sophomore at Rutgers University who loves to learn and teach! Some of my hobbies are classical music singing and watching sports such as soccer and football.

Hi, I'm Nur! I specialize in SAT preparation, helping students build strong Reading and Writing and Math skills, master different question types, develop effective test-taking strategies, and feel confident on test day. I create personalized SAT lesson plans based on each student's strengths, areas for improvement, and learning style, breaking down challenging concepts into clear, manageable steps. In addition to SAT preparation, I work with elementary, middle school, and high school students across reading, writing, math, and science. I especially enjoy supporting students with ADHD, executive functioning challenges, and dyslexia by using structured, evidence-based strategies that make learning more accessible and less overwhelming. I also incorporate essential skills such as organization, time management, study habits, and test-taking strategies to help students become more independent learners. My goal is not only to improve grades and test scores, but also to build confidence and

Every child one at a time, one step at a time; can develop the skills to read, write, and grow with confidence in their literacy. I graduated from Manchester College with a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology. While obtaining my undergraduate education, I volunteered with the Family Tree Child Development Center, where I enjoyed reading to the children and working with the teachers. I also volunteered in the Mother Baby Unit, helping the nurses and new moms! Upon completing my Biology degree, I interned at a hospital in the Microbiology lab. My classroom experience includes elementary substitute teaching and being an Instructional Assistant. I've worked with children who are advanced or struggling in small groups to reach academic standards. Following IEPs, and working with teachers, staff and parents to help students achieve goals, have been the most motivating to me.

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.
