I am currently a rising senior at the University of Kentucky. I am working towards my Bachelor of Science in Biology with a minor in math and neuroscience. I have been tutoring students from elementary to high school for four years in math. I enjoy working with students, of course to provide academic support, but also to build an environment that encourages them to think outside the box and feel comfortable in doing so. I do tutor high school chemistry, but my primary focus is on various levels of math. From my experience, teaching mathematical concepts can be challenging without being able to adapt to the strengths of weaknesses of every individual. I believe it is crucial that students are given an opportunity to learn that adheres to their individual characteristics. Aside from academia, I enjoy staying physically active, volunteering throughout my community, and being a huge sports fanatic.

I am medical student attending the University of Kentucky. My experience tutoring has both informal and formal components. Informally, I have tutored fellow students in classes that we share. Formally, I teach an organic chemistry recitation at UK. Subjects that I tutor are organic chemistry, mathematics, and biology. I do not have a favorite subject to tutor because I find there to be something very interesting about each subject. My philosophy to teaching is to look at it with the perspective of an enjoyable intellectual conversation. Learning is life-long so let us find the enjoyment in learning. My hobbies outside of academia include listening to music, cooking, and badminton.
I am a rising sophomore at the University of Kentucky pursuing a degree in Agricultural Biotechnology and Plant Science. I have a strong background in science, but also excel in english.
I am most passionate about helping students excel in reading and writing. I try to make my tutoring sessions as conversational as possible; I believe that both student and tutor should learn together. What I hope to achieve in my sessions is instilling confidence in my students. When students feel confident in themselves, they will be prepared to succeed both in and outside of the classroom.
My name is Spencer Berry! I earned my Bachelor's degree in psychology where I was a James Graham Brown scholar. I am now completing my Master's degree in Community and Leadership Development at the University of Kentucky, where I am conducting a mixed methods evaluation of a peer led grief support group. I have over 2 years of teaching experience, including personal, middle school classroom, and TA'ing classes at the University of Kentucky. I have a passion for making learning enjoyable and easy as possible.
I started tutoring students in math during the pandemic. I saw that many were falling behind all over the USA and I wanted to help out.
I am a recent graduate from the University of Kentucky with a B.S. in Biomedical Engineering on the pre-medicine track. I am particularly interested in chemistry and physiology, as well as helping students to prepare for standardized tests. I enjoy helping people achieve their goals while having fun at the same time! Outside of school, I compete in the equestrian sport of Eventing with my horse, George. I look forward to meeting you!
I am passionate about helping students become confident, thoughtful readers, writers, and speakers. With graduate training in communication and experience teaching public speaking to college students, I focus on clear explanations, practical feedback, and step-by-step support. I help students strengthen essays, organize ideas, improve academic writing, and build the confidence to express themselves clearly.
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.
