Duy

ACT Prep Tutor • +41 Subjects

I consider myself pretty intelligent - not in an upturned-nose kind of way - but in a driven-by-curiosity sense. Thus, I firmly believe in collaboration, because I get immense gratification when I learn something new, and I want to share that feeling with other people. I am also pretty easy-going and empathetic; I like to tell jokes and try to please people around me, so if I am your tutor you can bet that I will do my best to cater to your needs and strengths. I think the best model for tutoring is for me to help you figure out how to work through problems rather than just giving you the answer.If you take a look at my interest and hobbies, you can see that my curious drive is not limited to my academics - far from it! I am fascinated with the idea of being a Renaissance Man - a polymath basically - so I am always pushing myself to learn new things and try adventurous experiences. This might mean spending hours learning how to build a portable solar-powered generator or going hitchhiking in central Europe!

Accounting Tutor • +41 Subjects

My name is David. I am a Junior at Clemson University where I am an Honors Student, Dixon Global Policy Scholar and a member of the Clemson British Parliamentary Debate Team. As a junior in high school, I was a math tutor for Algebra I through a school sponsored program. I was assigned 2-3 students that I worked with three times a week throughout the year. My students improved from failing students to B students. I focused not only on helping them understand the material, but also on how to budget their time and how to study. I look forward to working with your child.

Viraj

AP Macroeconomics Tutor • +41 Subjects

I graduated this past summer from UC San Diego with a major in Political Science and a minor in Management Science (which attempts to draw empirical conclusions from economic data). I recently submitted my applications to a number of law schools, and I plan to accept admission for this Fall. Until then, I will be working as a tutor in the San Diego area.In high school I was a debate captain for a national-level debate team. My job was to coach the younger members. I would help them prepare for upcoming topics while working with them to develop their speaking, writing and research skills. I'm currently teaching two after-school classes, one in Pre-Calculus and the other in Biology.I am very comfortable tutoring in Math (up to Pre-Calc), Science (Biology, Physics, Chemistry), Government, Economics, and Essay Composition. I also work with test prep students (ISEE, SAT, ACT, and LSAT). In my free time, I like playing basketbal, listening to music, and trying to cook. I look forward to working with you!

I am currently enrolled as an undergraduate student at the University of Evansville, Indiana studying archaeology and classical studies. I also have additional college credits through the University of Minnesota and the University of Northwestern, St. Paul.

I am a firm believer that everyone can be a skilled in these areas and I am ready to help students reach that goal! To accomplish this, I will work closely with students to identify both strong suits and areas where growth is needed and help them grow in their skills.

Carrie

Algebra Tutor • +37 Subjects

I am a graduate of Virginia Commonwealth University where I earned by B.S. in Biology, with a minor in Chemistry. Currently, I attend the University of Richmond, where I am working to become a licensed teacher. Over the past 6 years I have had the pleasure of working with students as young as 2nd grade, all the way up to the college level. I prefer the sciences (biology, chemistry, Earth science) and math (elementary to algebra II). When tutoring, I encourage my students arrive at the solution by continuously asking questions, rather than directly giving answers. I also enjoy the use of manipulatives to speak to a wider range of learning styles, and to add an element of fun to the learning process. My experiences have allowed me to effectively manage my time and to work with a wide demographic of students. I look forward to helping my clients succeed in the classroom, and ultimately discover their potential.

Kshitij

ACT Prep Tutor • +48 Subjects

Hi, I'm Kshitij and I study at the University of Michigan's Ross School of Business. The best feeling in the world to me is helping other people reach their dreams by conquering barriers like testing that stand in their way. I believe that the process of learning precedes the end goals-- that means that I focus on teaching students how to learn and to autonomize problem solving skills and processes they can apply to all problems rather than just helping them get the answer they need on a specific problem. This is the approach that my teachers used with me, and I've found it to be successful in teaching others as well. In fact, a student I tutored is now a tutor herself at Varsity Tutors! I'm well versed in tutoring for standardized tests like the SAT/PSAT/ACT/AP, as well as things like essay writing and public speaking. If you have any questions about me or my background, feel free to ask!

I am a high school teacher with over 11 years of teaching experience. I believe that all students can learn. Having experience teaching at-risk students in juvenile detention, rural students, and suburban students, I believe that everyone has the capability to learn, they just need to be willing to learn. I always say if it's good for kids, then do it. I pride myself in my abilities to engage and build a strong rapport with all of my students.
