I'm from a small town in southeast Michigan, where I went to high school before moving to Nashville for university. I just graduated from Vanderbilt University with a Bachelor's degree in neuroscience and Russian. During my time in high school and college, I tutored in a volunteer capacity on a wide range of subjects, from English and essay editing to calculus to ACT prep. I am hoping to spend the next year traveling (I am currently living in Bucharest, Romania!) before applying to medical schoo...More

I am a 2nd year medical student at Northeast Ohio Medical University and have tutored K-12 and college students over the past 10 years in various subjects ranging from math and science to SAT prep and language arts. My educational background includes an MPA in Development Practice from Columbia University's School of International and Public Affairs, a B.S. in Molecular, Cell, & Developmental Biology, and a B.S. in Mathematics-Economics (both from UCLA). In addition, I have scored in the 99th pe...More

I am confident that I can help many other students face this hurdle to becoming a doctor. As a peer tutor for three years in biology, general/organic chemistry, and physics during my college career, I have extensive experiencing helping others through these subjects, and I would love the opportunity to continue to tutor other students. My hobbies include piano, soccer, and art!

I am always excited about learning and love to share that positive attitude toward lessons and assignments! It is important to me as a teacher to value my student's input. There must be an opportunity for them to ask questions that support their learning. Not only does this allow my students to demonstrate metacognition, but they can continuously reflect on how they can improve. This is crucial when a student is studying a topic they have little interest in and have met with little success. I un...More

I'm a Cincinnati Bengals fan. I enjoy spending time at home watching tv or Netflix. If I do go out, I like to go for walks, kayaking, or swimming. I prefer the warmer weather, and I love a good vacation. My favorite foods are pizza and sushi with chocolate chip cookies or Creme Brule for dessert.

I am currently an MD-PhD student at UC's College of Medicine with interests in pediatrics and immunology. I tutored in various capacities throughout college: leading review sessions for college Calculus and working one-one-one with middle and high school students. I have served as a tutor through VT for over a year now. I tutor a wide range of subjects: science (biology, physics, and chemistry), math (from algebra through college calculus), AP test-prep (math and science), and entrance exams (HS...More

I am and always have been an English person I love to read, I love to write, I love words, and I love understanding the infinite ways language can work in our world. I majored in English in college (Virginia Tech), with a specialty in Creative Writing, completing my degree in three years and graduating summa cum laude. During my time there, I won several writing contests and awards for my poetry, fiction, and nonfiction. I'm currently preparing myself to go to grad school for a Master of Fine Ar...More

I'm currently an instructor and MFA candidate at The Ohio State University. I hold an MA in English and Creative Writing from the University of Toronto and a BA from The University of King's College. I'm also an author: my essays and journalism have appeared in numerous magazines and literary journals, and my second book of poetry is forthcoming from a Penguin Random House imprint next year.

I am a fourth-year student at Johns Hopkins University studying Chemical & Bio-molecular Engineering. I'm looking to apply to medical school in the 2019 cycle and eventually specialize in surgery.

I'm starting to get back into my running and completed a marathon in Charleston in 2015 - I think this shows my perseverance and commitment to goals I set for myself. For Varsity Tutors, my goal is to gain greater experience helping students like yourselves in topics concerning the MCAT or sciences. I look forward to working with you in the future!
