Vetarolyn

Elementary School Reading Tutor • +7 Subjects

Hi my name is Vetarolyn I have a Bachelor of . Science in Education minor in Reading graduation, tutoring children of immigrants in Texas for the "No Child Left Behind" program; adults in Austin looking to improve their English (as I am a certified ESL,Special Ed, Regular Education, Language Arts Certifications); My private students have made great gains and went on to the next grade level at the top of their class and the high school students graduated for college. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about English, Literature, and Phonics, Prek -Elementary and the special needs population. In my experience helping struggling students prepare for Standardized Tests, we always seem to have the most fun (with remarkable advancements) prepping for the Critical Reading and Writing portions of the exams. I am a firm proponent of education, believing it to be absolutely necessary for an improved quality of life, and I try to impart this appreciation to all of my students. In my spare time, I enjoy reading that which enriches my life, running, cooking, gardening, reading and writing my own books,

Amanda

ACT Prep Tutor • +22 Subjects

I am a 2020 graduate of Northwestern University with a BA in Cognitive Science and Linguistics. I have previously tutored at Mathnasium, and during my senior year at NU I was a tutor for student-athletes on campus. I greatly enjoy helping others learn and seeing the accomplishment on their faces when a concept we've been working on finally clicks.Some of my favorite topics to teach are psychology and standardized tests like the ACT--these are areas that I enjoyed studying when I was in high school, so I like to make them fun and interesting for my students as well.In my free time, I make time to read for pleasure, get outside to enjoy the fresh air, and recently started crocheting!

Alan

American Literature Tutor • +8 Subjects

I am currently a student at Williams College. I have not yet specified my major but I plan to concentrate in English and philosophy. I have a keen interest in education and have actively sought out experience in the field for the past two years. I served as a Writing Fellow at Mount Greylock Regional School this past fall. There I was employed as an assistant for Mr. Dils, a high school English teacher. I was responsible for helping to prepare his tenth and twelfth grade classes, as well as correcting student writing. I have additional experience tutoring English at the Isoapple after-school facility, where I am currently assisting with the summer program. English is my primary subject, but I am also interested in tutoring History and SAT prep. In my own experience writing is the superlative avenue of expression, and reading the premier pathway to wisdom and perspective. Education is, in my opinion, the greatest good there is, and I hope to foster a similar appreciation in my students. In my spare time I enjoy reading, for both pleasure and knowledge. I also enjoy going on long walks, listening to music, and playing videogames.

Chelsea

Academic Coaching Tutor • +83 Subjects

Hi everyone, my name is Chelsea, it's nice to meet you! I have a B.S. in Physics and a M.S. in Bioinformatics and Computational Biology from UT Dallas (Go Comets!) and I love to help physics, chemistry, biology and math students of all levels.Let's talk about sessions....Subjects: For sciences I only teach biology, chemistry and physics and very closely related kinds of general physics, I do not have a speciality in any particular type of physics unless it is part of the undergraduate curriculum for physics majors accepted by most universities (such as Thermodynamics, Optics, etc). I now tutor mathematics as well.I operate on a first-come first-serve basis to make session timing fair to all students. Requests made for next day session under 24 hours can only be honored if there is available space. Any cancellations for same day session requests will be invoiced as a 24 hour cancellation.For New Students:Please send me your most recent updated availability as soon as you can, thank you! This speeds up the process of scheduling tremendously.Materials: I can't emphasize this enough. Please send any materials you'd like to cover during the session at least 24 hours before our scheduled session time (so that I have enough time to prepare), it's never too early to send materials to my email.Time Zones: Also, unless otherwise specified, all session times will be communicated in CST (converting your time zone to CST) for ease of use and to reduce confusion considering Varsity Tutors has students from all over the United States and Canada.

I believe that all students possess the capabilities to produce greatness if they apply themselves and take a determined approach towards the attainment of excellence. As an experienced and passionate tutor/educator, I come equipped with a variety of tutoring styles and teaching/learning strategies all aimed at academic enhancement. My strategies are very student centered and are developed based on a student's/client's interest, academic level and chronological age. I currently hold a Teacher Education diploma in the field of Primary education/Literacy Studies and a B.A. in Language Communication and Society.I have had the privilege of tutoring/teaching students ages 9 - 18, and have been doing so for over ten years now. I value education and what it has to offer because I view it as the main vehicle for all types of changes (namely, social, personal, professional, and financial). Education is a beautiful thing! Let me help you discover that beauty of it. I look forward to being your tutor!

Thomas

ACT Math Tutor • +37 Subjects

I hail from the greater Chicago area, and I am a senior at DePaul University studying Computer Science and Game Development. While programming is exciting to me, one of my other passions is teaching the math and science subjects that accompany Computer Science. I learned very early on that it wasn't the material that was most essential to learning, but it is the proper learning environment that really pushes students to do their best. That is the goal of my tutoring sessions: to create an environment where it's great to ask questions, and perfectly okay to not quite get it at first.

Olga

10th Grade Math Tutor • +24 Subjects

As a former rhythmic gymnastics trainer for young girls and private tutor, I love to share my skills and knowledge in all areas of my expertise. I understand the patience that comes with explaining problems to or training a student who may have never seen the subject before or has been taught incoherently. I specifically love tutoring math and physics because I myself have witnessed teachers or professors who have unmotivated students to continue further studies in those subjects with the use of unclear and didactic teaching methods. Math and physics is not so scary! To me it was more like learning a new language. I finished my baccalaureate in physics with a math minor. I have also done very well on standardized tests, not strictly because of my analytical knowledge but mostly because of the test taking skills I have aquired. I hope to pass on these skills so students don't have to waste time retaking standardized tests and parents don't have to cover as many fees. I scored 790/800 on the math portion of the SAT on my first try! More importantly, I hope to pass on my love for math and physics, and show more students the hidden simplicity and beauty within the notoriously scary subjects.

Julia

ACT Reading Tutor • +7 Subjects

I am currently a rising senior at Vanderbilt University majoring in Human and Organizational Development with a minor in Chinese. I chose a major and minor combination that focuses on international business because I grew up in Singapore and would love to eventually return back to Asia. Throughout my time living in Asia, I traveled extensively and had the opportunity to work with children in Thailand and Cambodia, and help inspire them to pursue an education. Based on my experiences abroad, I believe that education has the power to change an individual's life for the better.Throughout my time at Vanderbilt, I have worked as an ACT tutor. I have always been passionate about helping students gain confidence in standardized testing, and think it is important for students to have a mentor that has already been through the process. While test prep can be difficult, it is extremely rewarding to see students excel and reach their goal scores. In addition to standardized test prep, I also have extensive experience with essay writing and editing. Essay writing has always been a passion of mine and I look forward to helping students overcome any obstacles they may have with writing.

Daniel

ACT English Tutor • +22 Subjects

I've been programming for nine years now, and I think it's a very important skill to learn. Simple applications have the potential to save literal days of time quickly doing tedious tasks. I've taught several friends, and I love watching them build on their knowledge.My education started out as self-teaching, but I'm currently working towards a Bachelor of Computer Science at Kennesaw State University. I've worked with C++, but now mostly use C# and Java. My other languages include HTML5, CSS3, JS, PHP5, and Python.I'm also very proficient in mathematics, especially Algebra. In fact, before I switched my major to Computer Science, I was pursuing a Mathematics major. I feel that algebra is one of the most important math skills to develop as it is what most further math classes build off of. It's also by far the most useful field.I feel that learning should be done incrementally as trying to learn everything at once is overwhelming and ultimately unsuccessful. Smaller bites of knowledge are easier to digest, leading to a more rich understanding. Another thing paramount to building understanding is to let students have fun with the assignments! It's always better to build something that you're fond of rather than something you were forced to.Outside of tutoring, I work on my degree, build applications and work on building an interconnected system of computers. I also have a side-project game that I'm developing.I'm looking forward to working with you!
