I am a first year student at Oberlin College, currently studying hispanic studies with minors in anthropology, linguistics, and journalism. I have seven years of experience teaching and tutoring students ages 5-18, and I love working with all ages. I also have experience working with students with special needs including autism, ADHD, and learning disabilities. I strive to find the best teaching approach for each of my individual students, and to evaluate and meet their individual learning needs. I also aim to do so in a positive and uplifting way, which makes students feel good about themselves and their abilities. I have experience tutoring in all cores subject areas (math, science, language arts, and social studies), as well as Spanish.

I recently graduated summa cum laude from Augsburg College with a bachelors degree in Sociology and a minor concentration in Spanish. Now I am happily employed at Carleton College in Northfield as an evening supervisor in the library I love it! My plan is to eventually go on to get my Ph.D. in Sociology.Helping others learn brings me great joy, and Ive had the privilege of teaching people from a variety of ages and backgrounds. I was a supplemental instructor for the Statistical Analysis course at Augsburg College and also served as a tutor through the Academic Skills Office there. I have tutored high schoolers at the MN Internship Center and worked with students of all ages from elementary schoolers to adults at the non-profit program Safe Place: Homework Help. A particular highlight of mine is the summer I spent teaching English to adults as a certified ESL assistant at the International Education Center in downtown Minneapolis.All these experiences have helped me develop a variety of strategies to adapt to different learners needs and learning styles. I tutor a wide range of subjects, such as ACT prep, math, writing, Spanish, and Latin. Whether the math section of the ACT is making you nervous or you need some extra help keeping up in Spanish, I am confident that together, well figure out how to meet your current academic goals and develop the skills you need to face future challenges.Outside academia, I love to read I work in a library, after all! Im also an avid journaler. I enjoy learning languages in addition to Spanish and Latin, Im currently working on French. Im always listening to music, particularly Broadway musicals. And, finally, Im a huge Harry Potter fan. I get compared to Hermione Granger all the time, and thats just fine with me!

For much of my life, I have expressed an interest in sharing my knowledge with others the same way a teacher does for their students. I long to play a teacher/mentor figure in my career in which I transmit knowledge on the subjects I am most passionate about and therefore make an impact on my students and my community.Throughout my career, I have had much experience working with other students in group efforts as well as helping other peers to clarify certain concepts that I understood more easily. I have worked informally tutoring other students, which has helped me gain a better understanding about what students struggle with the most when trying to study Spanish.I graduated from Rio Rancho High School in 2013 and from University of New Mexico in 2017 with my Bachelor's degree in History and Spanish, both with Honors. I take a particular interest in Latin American and U.S. Hispanic history as well as Spanish grammar and linguistics.I tutor Spanish at all levels and various areas of History. Spanish, however, is my favorite subject to tutor because I have luckily had the luxury of growing up bilingual and with the ability to grasp the mechanics of the Spanish language, such that I have developed the mind of a linguist, skills that I am more than happy to share with others.With respect to my tutoring philosophy, I firmly believe that the best teachers teach what they are most knowledgeable about. With that said, to be an effective tutor, it is crucial that I not only share my knowledge but continue to be invested in how the field continues to change as well as the demands on students in learning a language in our modern, globalized world. Furthermore, it is the job of the teacher/tutor to be a guiding a mentor that teaches their pupil the skills needed to teach themselves.Academia is an important part of my life. However, to pursue and continue working in one's niche, it is important to maintain a healthy lifestyle. I take much interest in pursuing a fruitful life of virtue and health. I take much interest in caring for the Environment as well as keeping a healthy, active lifestyle. I especially take interest in self-help and entrepreneurship to help me connect with my inner self and live a holistic, satisfying life while making a difference.

I graduated as valedictorian of my high school, then graduated from Duke University with a bachelor's in Neuroscience, and have just recently graduated from Johns Hopkins University with a master's in Biotechnology. I have worked as a research technologist at Johns Hopkins Medicine and I am now a medical student at Robert Wood Johnson Medical School.I have thirteen years of tutoring experience, in subjects ranging from math, test prep, Spanish, and violin. I train in martial arts and I enjoy learning languages in my free time. I have volunteered as a Spanish medical interpreter at local clinics.Feel free to contact me at any time if you have questions. I look forward to working with you!

I will patiently and persistently guide you or your student to understand the mechanics of the subject and identify which key elements are lacking in their understanding. I easily identify the learning style unique to each student and can teach to suit his or her needs. I am able to tell quickly how a particular student thinks and best learns, and from there I can either make the lessons more game-like or memory based. In every case, I approach the subject or concerning area from the most basic root and build from there. I have been working with children since middle school which made me a very patient tutor in college. Aside from helping my classmates, I formally worked as an English tutor through the Universidad Complutense, the Spanish University at which my study abroad program resided.

If you are looking to truly learn the Spanish language, you have come to the right place. The reason I say this is because I am a non-native Spanish speaker that has gone the extra mile to learn. I wasn't the biggest fan of foreign language in high school; in fact, I took tech classes to satisfy my language credits. It wasn't until I studied abroad, where I learned what a powerful tool knowing multiple languages could be, that I came to enjoy them. During my sophomore year at Hofstra University I studied at the University College of Dublin where I made friends from all over the world; all of them spoke at least two languages. From there I was determined to learn Spanish. During that following summer I moved to Spain and lived with a friend and his family where I was immersed in the language. After I finished my Business degree at Hofstra I was able to attend Molloy College and earn a BS in Spanish language and begin working on a Master's in Education. I now work for Booker Software where I implement software for enterprise level Spanish clients. Each day I am able to use this language I never thought I would need in such an informative way. Through my experiences I know I can help students of every level. I can relate to students who may not have the drive to learn another language because I myself have been there and can understand their feeling. While on the other hand I am a great resource for students who enjoy the language and are looking to learn from someone who uses Spanish in their everyday life. For the last three years I have been tutoring students of all different levels and they have all made great strides in the classroom. I have varied experience working with many business' throughout the world and that gives me great knowledge in regards to international business and local and foreign economics. I hope to be helping your child in the classroom soon.

I graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree from Agnes Scott College. I studied Romance Languages with an emphasis in Spanish, Italian and French. I participated in Georgia State University's study abroad program in Perugia, Italy, where I studied in depth the culture and history as well as the language. I have worked primarily with high school and college students in both on-level and advanced language courses, and I have also had the opportunity to work with individuals for whom English is a second language. I enjoy teaching Grammar and Mechanics along with Composition and Writing, and I strongly believe in reading and listening to music to reinforce excellent use of any language. During my college career, I volunteered at a local shelter for women and children, and spent evenings helping kids of all ages with their homework and organizing games and activities. Some of my favorite pastimes include reading, swimming, traveling and doing volunteer work for various pet rescues.

I am a graduate of the University of Washington in Seattle. I earned a Bachelor of Arts in History, and also minored in Spanish. Now I am pursuing a Masters in Teaching in the Seattle area. I recently spent a year teaching English in the beautiful country of Costa Rica as a TEFL certified instructor. I was able to teach and tutor people of all ages and all skill levels, from high school students to professionals looking to expand their skills set. These experiences have given me a lot of confidence in tutoring English related topics such as reading and writing, and I am fluent in Spanish after living abroad for over a year, so I would greatly enjoy tutoring anybody with the desire to improve in that subject as well. However, my ultimate goal is to become a high school history teacher, so I would be very interested in tutoring the subjects of American or European history. It is my belief that education is the most valuable resource we possess, since it is what gives us the confidence to succeed, the ability to solve problems, and allows us to achieve our goals. In my spare time, I enjoy travelling, watching sports, kayaking, and getting out to experience the outdoors.

I am a graduate of the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, where I received Bachelor of Arts degrees in French and Spanish. I have experience teaching college-level French and grade-school Spanish, and I love teaching both languages. Learning a new language can be a challenging experience, but I believe the key to success is motivation. For this reason, I keep my students interested and focused with fun, exciting lesson plans. I match my teaching methods as closely as possible to my students' preferred learning style. Once we set a goal, I take time to review the material with the student to ensure their understanding each step of the way.Aside from teaching and learning languages, I enjoy exploring Milwaukee, trying new foods, watching soccer, football and rugby matches with friends, and spending time with my two dogs.

I grew up in a military family that was forced to relocate every few years, often internationally. As the result I became fluent in Russian, English, Spanish and proficient in French before I turned 18. As a freshman in college (2009), while studying International Studies, one of my classmates asked if I would help her prepare for the test in Advanced Placement Spanish and Literature. I agreed to help and therefore held my first tutoring session, and she ended up acing the test. This is when I found out I had a knack for teaching. My classmate was so happy with her results that she told her friends about it. Word of mouth got around, resulting in more and more students approaching me for help in foreign languages and social sciences, which started my career as a tutor. I began tutoring students in subjects like Spanish, Russian, ESL, as well as Psychology, Political Science, Criminal Justice and International Relations and undergraduate level Criminal law. Because I have been a student myself; I like to believe that I have an easy time relating to my clients and recognizing their educational needs. I find it extremely important that my students have fun during lessons, therefore I try to cater my lesson plans according to each student's individual learning style. I have a great deal of passion for education and the times when I notice results in my students, it makes my job as an educator that much more meaningful and fulfilling. I sincerely love what I do for a living, and I use my life and tutoring experiences to improve as a person and as an educator. I feel honored to be a part of Varsity Tutors, helping students achieve their educational and personal goals in life, therefore at the end of the day i go to bed knowing that i have done something meaningful and positive that day, that I have helped another person get ahead, and to me that feeling is priceless.
