Bonjour!I learned French while living with a French family in Grenoble, and the rest is history. I immediately fell in love with the French language along with the challenge of learning a new one. With only my experience to thank, I have had the opportunity to conduct French interviews, "Bosser" in a French real estate firm in NYC, pass my DALF examination, and "enseigner" the language to my family members. I will be there to guide you every step of the way while making the experience relatable, relevant, and current. I look forward to learning with you soon!

I am an avid learner, which likely explains why I have the highest terminal degree. Thus, I use a developmental approach to tutoring. This approach focuses on identifying and affirming relative strengths and developing a plan to build upon relative weaknesses. My goal is to leave you feeling more empowered about content (e.g., science, math, graduate or medical school admissions, post-graduate work, and executive functioning skill building) after each session.

To understand my perspective on education, it is important to know my background. I am the son of a former New York City administrator and educator. I started learning math at the age of three as I was enrolled in a Montessori school as a toddler. Knowing that the quality of the education students were receiving in NYC public schools, my mother sacrificed and sent me to a private parochial school from 1st-8th grade.I tested into Brooklyn Technical High School, one of the three specialized high schools in New York City, but opted to attended a school that had a pre-med program in my borough. I took anatomy and advanced placement courses and earned a National Merit Scholarship based on my PSAT performance.I then attended the leading historically Black university, Howard University, where I majored in Biology an minored in Chemistry. I went on to take the Graduate Record Exam (GRE) and Medical College Admissions Test (MCAT), attend graduate and medical school and I received Masters and Doctoral degrees in Genetics and Human Genetics.I matriculated through the first two years of medical school and successfully passed Step 1 of the United States Medical Licensing Exam of USMLE.In addition to the concepts covered in the classes and courses, I am also very familiar with the application processes and all of the standardized tests required for entry into both graduate and medical school as well as their respective prep courses.My teaching philosophy is that any student can learn any concept if it is presented in a way that is compatible with their learning style. The concept of learning style is one that I was introduced to rather late in my academic career. However, I think this is the key and a major reason that many students struggle in school. After being introduced to the concept, I could identify the reasons that I performed so much better in high school biology than I did in chemistry.With this understanding, one of the first things I ask student I tutor is if they know what their learning style is. If they don't, recommend they use a free online assessment to find out. If you are interested in working with me and do not know what your learning style is, please take a few minutes to take a learning style assessment and find out. You will be glad you did.

I would have to say that all of my education since grade school has focused on math and science. I went to Michael E. DeBakey High School for Health Professions in Houston, Texas. It was there that I really found my niche in both science and math, where AP Physics and AP Calculus were my favorites. I later went to Howard University, in Washington D.C., where I majored in Biology, but I later discovered that I didn't quite satiate my curiosity for science. After college, I went to school part-time, at the University of Houston. While there, I completed several classes, such as Biochemistry I, Biochemistry II, Endocrinology and Human Physiology.Soon after, I was presented with the opportunity to teach at a local charter school, here in Houston. I first taught Chemistry, as a 10th grade long-term substitute and was later asked to stay to teach 9th grade Algebra. While teaching, I focused on the various learning styles of my students and played upon that constantly. While teaching, I set a new goal to continue to teach until I retire.Recently, I received a Masters of Arts in Biotechnology from Columbia University in the City of New York. While there, I continued to fulfill my love for the sciences and took several more science classes, such as Developmental Biology, Neurobiology II, and Molecular Pharmacology. After completing my last semester, at Columbia, I found that I have taken nearly thirty science classes at both the undergraduate and graduate level. I will now use all this information to teach as an adjunct faculty, in the Biology department, at a local community college. In the Spring 2013, I will teach Anatomy & Physiology I and Nutrition.Now, while tutoring, I simply wish to translate my love for both science and math to my students.

Quinn
BA Howard University

In my first year at Howard University, I found that my inclination towards the social sciences not entirely fulfilled. Although I am a proponent for the social sciences, it was important that I compliment this understanding with a major in the humanities. I decided to double major in Philosophy and Political Science, giving myself the breadth required to formally contemplate life and society. I needed philosophy to attain a grasp of personhood. This would allow me to reflect more deeply on the individual within structures that serve to hinder or enhance their life experience. In classes, I found myself pulling philosophical concepts and using them to analyze working political ideologies' efficacy in society.My studies alone have not made me the person I am. I am a social activist and created a nonprofit organization for a student-student mentoring program, the Urban Youth Alliance. As a leader of two programs pertaining to social justice (also being an Editor-in-Chief of on online magazine Watch that Negro), I have furthered my academic pursuits with hands-on experience. As director of UYA, a college coaching nonprofit organization for public high school students of color, I honed my skills as an administrator. I have proven successful in the design and implementation of many programs and similar to the goals held by Varsity Tutors and I understand the importance of mentorship within academic work.As a mentor and tutor, I want to emphasize my desire to coordinate my research with my creative writing. Like a thought experiment, prose can shed light on the realities of my suppositions. Not unlike how my favorite authors James Baldwin, Haruki Murakami explore the nuances of human life within their literature, I want to write novels that lend themselves to dialectical argumentation and answer profound questions through the narratives of characters that only exist on paper. In this way, I will support my research with prose to reach the broader population. I intend to become a professor who instructs their students to creatively engage with their passions. To begin this process, I will pursue a doctorate in philosophy immediately after attaining this scholarship.I am most interested in political theory and philosophy of the mind for the discovery of a quality life in the pursuit of happiness. I have been separating this interest into distinct parts to answer this question: how should society value happiness despite the diversity of identity and conflicting interests? Influenced by the Rawlsian theory of justice, I wrote a short story paralleling justice with happiness. The story examines a dystopian society that prioritizes the population's happiness over all other virtues. In this society, the government extends its powers to ensure happiness. It is the extreme conclusion to the extent of how political bodies can function as insurance of citizens' happiness. The protagonist and all other minors are raised separately from society and upon entering adulthood at eighteen years old are administered a psychological examination to determine their "happiness potential." If the results are unsatisfactory, they are prescribed mandatory pharmaceuticals to keep them content, an unideal end, but one that captures the extreme hypothesis.My most recent independent research is an evaluation of the necessary conditions for happiness, which I determine is forgetting one's emotional past, using an emotional state theory of happiness. The differing views of theories of happiness in the field today are external versus internal, gratification versus a psychological state. Although my current research seemingly focuses on only the psychological by using the emotional state theory, an individualistic theory, I recognize how outside experiences affect the emotional state. This creates a compound theory that acknowledges intersectional experiences.Still, the interaction between identity and happiness is ostensibly a psychological topic. Furthermore, sociological and psychological research has proven that people in society who suffer from multiple intersections of oppression are most likely to suffer from depression and other mental illnesses. My research becomes philosophical when I theorize a definition of happiness suitable to this reality and research to what extent societies can prioritize happiness knowing that one person's happiness can cause unhappiness for another. People have conflicting interests and with limited resources, it seems impossible to satisfy everyone. When transgender people are able to use whatever restroom with which they identify, to some extent their oppression is lessened, giving them a degree of contentment. Simultaneously, some devout Christian groups are staunchly against trans-rights and will be unsatisfied if this occurs. In a case like this, whose happiness is more important? Real world answers are necessary if we are to live in a content society. It is obvious that the world is obsessed with how to be happy. A plethora of self-help books discuss just this, but they rarely tackle how intersectional experiences affect psychological happiness. If real-world happiness is possible for all people within a given society, I will find how.

2+ Years Tutoring

I'm a tutor specializing in English and digital media, grounded in an ethos of collaboration and curiosity. I believe learning is most meaningful when it's driven by genuine interest, so I work with students to identify what excites them and build from there. Whether we're developing an essay, analyzing a text, or shaping a multimedia project, I approach our sessions as creative workshopsspaces to explore ideas, ask questions, and grow skills with confidence. I my MA in Journalism from NYU, and my BA in Journalism with and English minor at Howard University where I focused on how people share stories and make meaning together. My goal is always to support students in finding their voice, strengthening their critical thinking, and feeling empowered in how they communicate. Let's learn together in a way that feels engaging, collaborative, and uniquely tailored to you.
