I am reliving the process of learning that concept myself, both by explaining the concept in new ways and by seeing students wrestle with and eventually grasp the concept for themselves. For me, teaching is a way of "living vicariously" through students by experiencing the joy of learning once more.

Sophia

Algebra Tutor • +9 Subjects

I am currently a sophomore at Bryn Mawr College. In the 8th grade, due to my exceptional performance in my advanced math class, I was offered the opportunity to tutor for extra credit. Since then, I have enjoyed tutoring and teaching others in a variety of subjects in grade levels PreK-11th for volunteer work and in paid settings. In high school, I took advantage of tutoring opportunities through my membership in Math, English, and National Honor Societies, and National Beta Club. I am working towards a Bachelors degree in Political Science and am also studying Middle Eastern Studies. While I hope to eventually pursue a Juris Doctris, education is a passion I would like to stay involved in throughout my career. I have worked with students of all ages inside and outside of school settings. I interned at the Fairmount Water Works where I assisted in an educational capacity. I tutor in Math, Social Studies, and Social Sciences. For a complete list, check out my subject list below. My favorite subject to tutor is math as there are many different ways I can explore with my students as to how to approach the problem in a way that makes sense to them. Math, especially, requires a lot of patience and it's incredibly rewarding to watch a student become proficient in a skill set they once thought impossible. My teaching philosophy and tutoring style emphasize that students learn in a variety of ways and one must first recognize where each individual student is coming from in terms of learning style and resources before attempting to address the academia. Outside of academia, I am very passionate about acting and social justice. Both of these interests, I believe, help me greatly in connecting with my students and supporting their learning. I have clearances available at your request. I was accepted to such prestigious institutions as NYU and the University of Richmond among others. I hold several leadership positions in my school community including president of pre-law society and Access Services coordinator. I look forward to working with your child!

Ever since a young age, I have always wanted to go into the medical field. In high school, I was always an honors student. For college, went to the New York Institute of Technology where I studied pre-med with a literature background. After graduating college, I went to medical school and I am currently about to graduate medical school.Throughout my educational experiences, I came across tough obstacles. I know what it's like to not do well on exams but I never gave up. My passion towards learning has allowed me to reach my dream one day and I hope to pass this message on to my students.

Radley

College Math Tutor • +19 Subjects

I am a graduate of Abilene Christian University, where I received a Bachelor's in Nursing Science. Since becoming an RN I have practiced nursing in multiple states at faculties like Vanderbilt and UNC. I have worked in variety of different nursing specialties such as ICU, Burn (Adult and Pediatric), Transplant, Cardiac Care and Neurology. I also completed 140 hours of NICU training.One of my favorite parts of being a nurse has been the opportunity to precept, mentor and prepare new nurses and nursing students for this awesome profession. My interest in the sciences became insatiable in high school as I tackled my first Anatomy and Physiology class, and led me to further my education in courses such as Advanced Anatomy and Physiology I and II, Microbiology, Biology, and Health Science.After being accepted to nursing school I focused on Pharmacology, Ethical Nursing, Medical Surgical Concepts, Critical Care Concepts, Pathophysiology and more. I have extensive knowledge of NCLEX preparation and remember fondly the days spent studying in perpetuity to do well on the exam.I think two of the most important parts of learning are foundational knowledge and confidence in yourself. Often times they go hand in hand and I like to build on both of those skills as we master any content :)

Emmanuel

C++ Tutor • +13 Subjects

My first and second degree was in Computer Science (B.Sc. and M.Sc.), then I moved on to do my Ph.D. in Instructional Design and Technology. Because I have a passion for teaching and learning and I know that people have distinct learning styles. My joining Varsity Tutor as an instructor is to support the work of the organization in helping student grow in knowledge, career and academically. And to make sure that courses and subjects are up and running.As technology always change and being in the technology environment and industry for long, my aim will be to teach students and lecture skills and theories and apply theory to practice preparing them for being education tech leaders. I would bring my knowledge of instructional theory and model by using ADDIE model and other relevant models like Backward Design/Understanding by Design (UbD), Design Thinking Model, Fink's Significant Learning Model, ARCS model based on the appropriate design of the courses. I am proficient with various learning and course management systems e.g., Blackboard, Moodle, Canvas, aTutor, Open edx, WebWork, Google Classroom, OpenLearning, eCollege, GlobalScholar and lot more. It will be my honor to bring the knowledge I have acquired to teach at Varsity Tutors. My excellent written and oral communication skills, that includes the ability to effectively convey technical information to non-technical colleagues and clients would also be beneficial to the students of Varsity Tutors. My critical thinking skills and the ability to prioritize and manage multiple simultaneously deadlines would be an added value to the students of Varsity Tutors. As an Information Technology Director for several years, this would be an added value to Varsity Tutors students as I would bring my knowledge of technology skills to the organization when teaching students.

ACT Prep Tutor • +22 Subjects

I am a current student at Williams College double majoring in chemistry and Arabic studies concentrating in public health on a pre-med track. I speak English and Latvian fluently, and am learning Arabic and French. I tutor a wide range of subjects, but I especially enjoy tutoring in the sciences because I feel that introducing students to the sheer amount of what is possible in the sciences is an amazing opportunity. I feel that an introduction to science should be molded around a student's interests because teaching a student about something that they are already passionate about will always yield the best results. I am currently studying to become an EMT and enjoy being in the outdoors and tinkering.
