I am a graduate of Wright State University in my home state of Ohio. I went on to attend Antioch University where I received my Masters in Early Childhood Education. My passion for teaching and learning then led me to Walden University where I obtained my Education Specialist Degree in Teacher Leadership. I have taught K-5 in various subjects, but my favorite subject is reading! I love to make the connection for my students and see that spark that ignites once the connection is made! Each student is unique and I like that tutoring allows the opportunity to tailor the lesson to an individual's preference and development versus the one size fit all we often find in classrooms!

I graduated from the University of California with a PhD in Linguistics, specifically Psycholinguistics. So I am either a cognitive psychologist who loves language, or a linguist who loves cognitive psychology. (My dissertation was on the role of memory in language processing.) My most important work, though, has always been as an educator. If you think of the three most important people in your life, I wager all of them are teachers, in some sense. I see teaching as an opportunity to make a positive impact on someone's life; an opportunity that not everyone has. I have taught a broad range of subjects, in a variety of scenarios, but throughout the most powerful part of teaching is that I learn at least as much from my students as they do from me. I have taught humanities (history, writing, philosophy), science (Linguistics, Psychology), and math, but the most rewarding aspect is the chance to change the trajectory of students' life through understanding. In my spare time, I enjoy reading Sci-Fi/Fantasy, working on old cars/machines, and backpacking.

Hello, I am a graduate of Alabama A&M University. I currently have a degree in Psychology and working on my MED in Education with Initial Teacher Licensure, Intervention Specialist, and Mild to Moderate Education. I have tutored in math and reading grades k-12 for the past 4 years. I spent a year teaching 5th and 6th grade math and i'm currently the math instructional aide for grades 9-12. Of course my favorite subject is math because I've always been good at it. my teaching philosophy is the same as Robert John Meehan"s "Every child has a different learning style and pace, each child is unique, not only capable of learning but also capable of succeeding". outside of academia I love the arts. Anything that involves music or dance I love. I love creative things. I am here to help you!

"I believe that all students can learn and I will do my best to teach them and show growth within each individual child." I graduated in 2016 with a Bachelor of Science in Education from Wright State University. I am committed to teaching students to be confident, motivated learners. My hobbies include spending time with my family, photography, drawing/painting, and gardening.

I'm not tutoring or buried in my textbooks, you will either find me rock climbing at the Triangle Rock Club, playing Ultimate Frisbee, working on my car, or enjoying the great outdoors (beaches, mountains, forests--you name it, I love it). On rainy weekends I enjoy tinkering with computers and old electronics, playing Pokemon, or picking at my guitar.

I am an interdisciplinary educator with an Ed.M. from the Harvard Graduate School of Education and a B.A. from Dartmouth College. My background is primarily in integrated arts learning and museum education and I specialize in visual arts, history and art history, and object-based learning. In all subjects, I take a creative, inquiry-based and learner-centered approach, designing opportunities for each unique individual to meet their learning goals.

I am a recent graduate from a masters program in biostatistics at Columbia University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in biological sciences, with a focus in neurobiology at Northwestern University. In August, I will be starting a doctoral program in biostatistics at NYU. I was a teaching assistant at Columbia University in my department and also have tutored graduate students and undergraduates privately as well. My primary areas of tutoring are math and statistics coursework in addition to math sections on standardized tests such as the GRE and GMAT. I am very passionate about helping students feel more confident and excited about math. In my spare time, I enjoy running, playing piano, and spending time with friends and family.

I am a graduate of Wesleyan University, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in Sociology with High Honors. With eight years of experience working in education, I've tutored students in math, science, history, and English, as well as helped students prepare for standardized tests. I've guided adults towards passing the US Citizenship Exam and taught English in India, where I lived for six months. Whenever I work with a student I personalize the lessons to fit their particular learning style, since I know every student is unique and having the right fit can make all the difference in making learning fun and effective. My strengths are tutoring the social sciences and humanities, as well as making math and standardized tests approachable to students that normally don't like those subjects. In my spare time I like traveling, spending time in the outdoors (climbing & backpacking), meditation, and playing soccer. Next fall I will be beginning my PhD in Education at Harvard University.

I am a rising sophomore at Harvard College and am about to declare as a Mechanical Engineering concentrator, working towards a Bachelor of Science degree. I've always enjoyed sharing my knowledge with my peers and those around me and have done so in both formal and informal settings. I've been a tutor for both Math and Spanish programs in high school and enjoyed the strides I made with students. I am willing to tutor any subject I have a background in, but am strong in mathematics, the sciences, Spanish, history, writing, and ACT prep. I enjoy teaching mathematics most due to the joy I can see in children once they master a topic and can answer even pointed questions meant to stump them, and maybe even put their knowledge to real world use. As a tutor, I like to give a strong foundation to orient my student, and then gradually grant them more freedom and independence until they can feel themselves grasp the concept, pointing out pitfalls or common errors along the way; teachers who used these methods on me always left the most lasting impressions. Outside of my studies, I really enjoy listening to music, both old favorites and new interests, reading classics, and gaming/playing basketball with my friends.

I am a graduate of Washington University in St Louis, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in History with minors in Humanities and Anthropology. Since graduation, I have worked as a tutor, teacher, and director of tutors at a charter public middle school in Boston. During this time I also received my Masters in Mild to Moderate Disabilities from Simmons College. I have worked extensively with students with a range of abilities, including students with specific learning disabilities, emotional impairments, dyslexia, and ADHD. My teaching experience has given me a deep understanding of the knowledge and habits essential to academic success and has given me the opportunity to hone a variety of strategies that ensure students at each level can achieve their academic goals. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, my favorite ones are Reading, Elementary/Middle School Math, History, and Test Prep. In my experience, tutoring is the most rewarding when a student has that "aha!" moment and achieves a new level of understanding and confidence in his/her abilities. I am a firm believer in the transformative power of education, and I see my role to be that of a facilitator and coach who is there to help the student reach his/her goals through individualized support and rigorous practice. In my free time, I enjoy reading, running, practicing my Spanish, and discovering new music. I am also an avid traveler and just got back from a 3 month trip to South America. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you!

I am a junior Mechanical Engineering major at Yale, and I hope to become a Naval Aviator after college. I am also a varsity sailor, and enjoy playing music with friends when I can get some free time. I have been tutoring my fellow students throughout my entire academic career, and I would best describe my tutoring style as one that adapts to each students' needs. For example, I have always tried to frame questions in a different way so that the student can better understand the question. Some students need visual representations of numbers and systems to understand them, and others benefit more by understanding the concepts behind each formula. I prefer to tutor in math and physics, and especially with real world application problems. I hope to help students improve their standardized test scores and their understanding of the math and sciences so that they can achieve their academic goals!

I am proud to be a part of Varsity Tutors! I am originally from San Antonio, TX; I completed my undergraduate education at Rice University in Houston where I received a bachelor's degree in Biochemistry and Cell Biology. Currently, I am in my second year of medical school at Baylor College of Medicine.
