Tara

10th Grade Math Tutor • +70 Subjects

Hi there! If there's one thing I'm sure of, it's that I genuinely enjoy tutoring. I'm also a "professional" student. I say this because absorbing, analyzing, and integrating knowledge from my medical courses are necessary skills for my own academic success. And so, I am more than happy to share my study strategies, techniques, and tips with students.My strengths lie within the sciences (e.g. AP Biology, Biochemistry, AP Chemistry), followed by mathematics. I also enjoy teaching and tutoring Latin. Believe me when I say it's a beautiful language! During my pursuit of an M.D. degree, I have acquired a minor of Psychology, which has taught me to help others with a holistic approach.

Frank

AP Biology Tutor • +31 Subjects

As the first academic in my entire, extended family, I was a completely lost college junior, had no plan, no experience, no help and also no clue where to find help. Out of luck, help found me one day and that changed everything. I graduated with honors and moved on to get my PhD. Two decades later, I am still very grateful and helping struggling students with Varsity Tutors is my way to pay it forward. Please do the same one day ;-)Every student's motivation to strive for an education is unique and personal, so are their tutoring needs. I strive to create learning environments that promote clear expectations and scaffolding in order to invite students to structure new knowledge (e.g. in graphic organizers) and connect concepts to their daily lives.I got my entire education in Germany, where I studied a healthy mix of Biology, Engineering and Computer Science called Technical Biology & Bionics (today it's called bioengineering and biomimicry) at the Saarland University, close to France. My PhD in Biology from the RWTH Aachen University in Germany was in the greater field of Biophysics and Bioelectronics.I tutor mainly biology and subjects related to my minors. I was a science teacher in a middle school, a biology teacher in a highschool and currently teach undergraduate biology at the university level. I also teach German classes and was the Vice President of a German-American Society. A few years ago, I developed a new interest in Business and co-founded two tech-startups in Florida. I recently finished a MicroMasters Certificate in Business Foundations from the University of British Columbia using edX.

Jennifer

ACT Prep Tutor • +34 Subjects

I graduated from Amherst College in 2010 with a degree in French, a cane (as per school tradition), and years of tutoring experience. As an undergraduate, I tutored young girls and middle school students in Reading, Math and other subjects as needed. Since graduation, I have taught English in France, worked with adults learning English as a Second Language, and tutored elementary, middle, and high school students in a wide variety of subjects, including Math, Science, Reading, English, ACT and SAT test preparation.I am a firm believer in problem-based learning, and encourage students to ask questions and think for themselves. Although I will not provide answers or a quick and simple fix, I will provide students with guidance and encouragement as they work through problems and learn to apply familiar concepts to unfamiliar situations. I also believe strongly in teaching "to the student," and therefore adapt my teaching to fit each individual's needs and learning styles. By pinpointing and addressing students' weaknesses and creating a comfortable, nurturing environment in which they can learn, I work to help students solidify their knowledge base and learn how to learn.In my free time, I enjoy running, playing piano, baking and learning about photography. I also enjoy traveling and spending time with friends.
