As a student who has struggled with many subjects herself, I understand what its like to struggle academically and what it takes to overcome those struggles. The greatest way I was able to overcome my struggles was by having a great teacher. Hence it became my personal mission to help other students the way I received help by imparting all the knowledge I obtained from my teachers on to other students.

I am a certified teacher with a master's degree in Education which I received from Long Island University, Brooklyn Campus. My specialization is in TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages), but I also teach elementary school subjects. I studied Elementary Education and Anthropology in my undergraduate studies. Since I have a love for travel and learning about other cultures, I have lived and worked in three foreign countries; I taught English to university students in Kyrgyzstan through the United States Peace Corps and high school students in Guadalajara, Mexico and studied German while working as an au pair in Germany. While working on my master's degree, I taught adult immigrants in Flushing, Queens who wanted to improve their English. After graduating with my master's degree, I taught academic ESOL, essay writing, and adult continuing education at a city college in Queens, NY. Following that, I taught ESL to predominantly Egyptian, Arabic speaking, students at a high school and elementary school in New Jersey. I enjoy working with students of all ages. Working one one one with students is especially rewarding. Throughout my teaching career, I have provided private lessons to students in standardized tests, reading, writing, study skills and math. I believe in student-centered, hands-on learning. I help all of my students with study skills and overcoming barriers to study such as vocabulary and skipped gradients. I have traveled throughout Europe and love to learn about other cultures and lands. I also enjoy interior design, cooking and traveling. I am happy to be a part of Varsity Tutors and I look forward to meeting new students!

Hi! My name is Justine. I am a fourth year medical student getting ready to enter general surgery residency at NYU Brooklyn. I know how difficult medical school is and what it takes to make the grades. After years of my own academic pursuits, I have developed a passion for helping others, both in and outside of the classroom. Studying medicine takes a different set of skills which I have developed, perfected and more than willing to teach others. With over 30 residency interviews and ranked #2 in my graduating class, my learning technique has proved successful.

I am a licensed pharmacist in the US, but had the opportunity to teach clinical pharmacy overseas {Japan and Thailand} to undergraduate and graduate students as university faculty. I was also an associate director of the Department of Pharmacy at a 1000-bed private hospital in Japan for seven years, in charge of professional (pharmacists) and interprofessional (medical residents, nurses in medication use) learning.

I attended NYU for my undergraduate studies and I am currently finishing up my graduate studies at LIU Brooklyn. It is my belief that education is the key to improving our communities. As educators it is not our job to give our students the answer, rather it is our duty to teach them how to be critical and independent thinkers. I am currently a high school Special Education English teacher. I became a teacher because I believe in the potential of all learners and understand that not all learning happens the same way. I am a passionate and dedicated person who constantly strives to better myself and my practice.
