I have also worked as a literacy coach in a K-8 school.Writing is my passion. As a student at the University of Pittsburgh, I majored in English Writing and Political Science.

For over a decade, I have helped students perfect their craft and become strong, succinct writers. I have read and edited class-assigned and college admission essays.I am a Level 2 Google Certified Educator.In my spare time, I enjoy settling into a really great novel.

I am really excited about working with students in the Philadelphia area! I grew up in Northern Virginia and graduated high school with an IB diploma. For college, I moved to Houston to attend Rice University, where I majored in Psychology. I then earned a masters degree in Religion at Yale and I am now working towards a degree in Bioethics at UPenn. I also completed the premedical requirements during this time.In Connecticut, I worked as a chaplain in a community hospital. Upon moving to Philadelphia, I found a position at CHOP as a research assistant and then transitioned to a job as an OB/GYN research coordinator at HUP. Outside of academia, I work as a barista and I skate on an adult synchronized ice skating team in Philly!

Julie

Graduate Test Prep Tutor • +10 Subjects

I am a graduate of Washington University in St. Louis. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy-Neuroscience-Psychology with a concentration in cognitive neuroscience and also minored in music with a specialty in piano performance. After graduating, I completed two years of dedicated immunology research in a pediatrics - infectious diseases laboratory. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about helping students achieve their potential on standardized tests. I want to help not only with students' short-term goals but also more distant trajectories and life goals. In my spare time, I enjoy playing music, reading, practicing yoga, running, and learning new tricks in the kitchen. I look forward to working with you!

Elena

College English Tutor • +16 Subjects

I am a second year law student at the University of Chicago who hails from the San Francisco Bay Area! I tutor the SAT, ESL, and Spanish. I was an AVID tutor in high school, and after college I taught an ESL class and tutored a high school student in Spanish. In law school, I am involved with the Lawyers in the Classroom program. My tutoring philosophy is based on listening to students work through problems and helping them to spot their confusions or incorrect assumptions. I believe students learn much better when they aren't simply told the right answer or right reasoning; they need to get there on their own.Outside of academia, I love to sing. I'm classically trained, but I also participated in a cappella in college! I also ran my first marathon this year, and I love to cook and try new recipes.

Drishti

Academic Coaching Tutor • +48 Subjects

I love tutoring students because of how fun and rewarding it is. I attended Jericho High School where I was secretary of the peer tutoring club. I tutored over 50 hours each year in algebra, geometry, calculus, statistics, biology, chemistry, and physics. My favorite subject tutor has always been any level of math through AP Calculus BC. I have also been an SAT tutor at my local test prep center in my senior year of high school. I'm currently a sophomore at Cornell University working towards a bachelor of arts in biological sciences. As a tutor, my ultimate goal is to make sure my students feel confident enough about a subject to answer questions without any help and feel prepared for their exams. I truly enjoy the tutoring process and the ability to help students find their own potential in any subject. I hope to be a good fit for any tutee, and I am willing to put the hours and effort in order to get improved results.

Algebra Tutor • +55 Subjects

I am a multilingual (5 languages) person with spanish origins, but who was born and raised in Switzerland. I love to help people especially teaching them, as I am conviced we would live in a better world with a higher education level. In my opinion education has a huge effect on the social behaviour of each one of us. More educated people means less crime and more social values. I am blessed and very happy, if I can contribute something in this matter.

Melissa

Admissions Tutor • +15 Subjects

I am a graduate of the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City, where I earned my Bachelor of Science in Advertising and Marketing Communications with Magna Cum Laude distinction; I focused on Public Relations, Entrepreneurship, and Event Planning. During my final year at FIT, I worked full-time at Viacom's BET Networks as a Corporate Communications Intern and was hired on as a Publicity Coordinator immediately following my graduation. I received three promotions in three years at the media powerhouse and as Lead Mentor with Viacom's UP Mentoring program, I guided young professionals on their own career journeys. Since leaving BET Networks, I have gone on to represent and counsel top business leaders, A-list celebrities, and a diverse range of talent and professionals in Business Communications; all while elevating others in my community through education.While I have worked with students and mentees on a broad range of subjects, I am intensely passionate about English, Literature, Business, and all forms of Writing. I don't consider any student to be "struggling" rather, I work to boost their overall understanding and real-world application of subjects on which we collaborate. I love to learn and I feel learning is lifelong - it's important to me to meet students where they are in their educational journey and help them to move along with confidence.Outside of work, I am a voracious reader. I also enjoy painting, writing, playing the piano, and creating fashion designs.

I graduated from UConn (Go Huskies!) in 2018 with a Bachelor of Sciences degree. While at UConn I majored in biological sciences and minored in physiology and neurobiology. This past year I got my Master of Sciences degree in biology from Chatham University in Pittsburgh, PA and am currently working at The Jackson Laboratory as a Clinical Genomic Technologist. I am also a licensed EMT and have been volunteering for two years now!
