I received my Bachelor of Science in Neuroscience and Bachelor of Science in Psychology from the University of Kentucky with a minor in French. Over the past eight years, I have tutored students in Math and Science courses as young as Middle School all the way through College. While at the University of Kentucky, I led group tutoring as well as provided private tutoring for students through the university. I have also had a number of both Spanish-speaking and English-speaking private clients throughout the state of Kentucky. I am passionate about tutoring because I love watching students reach a level of understanding that they did not have before. I believe that every student learns differently and as a tutor it is my job to navigate material with the student to create spaces for success. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, running, hiking, and learning new languages.

I am a rising sophomore at the University of Kentucky pursuing a degree in Agricultural Biotechnology and Plant Science. I have a strong background in science, but also excel in english.I feel that I could help your student become stronger in writing papers. Through my methods, I can introduce students to organized and successful strategies that can be applied throughout the rest of their academic career.

I am a recent graduate from the University of Kentucky with a B.S. in Biomedical Engineering on the pre-medicine track. I am particularly interested in chemistry and physiology, as well as helping students to prepare for standardized tests. I enjoy helping people achieve their goals while having fun at the same time! Outside of school, I compete in the equestrian sport of Eventing with my horse, George. I look forward to meeting you!

Texas has been my home for twenty-five years. I was born in Lexington, Kentucky, but moved to Round Rock, Texas after serving in the U.S. Navy. I hold a teaching certificate in Texas and Kentucky and have over ten years of experience teaching Spanish and French in both states.I hold a Ph.D. in Spanish and a B.A. in French and Spanish.Learning a language involves many skills: speaking, listening, reading, and writing. Sometimes, grammar may be a stumbling block. Sometimes, it's reading comprehension. Or a student may need extra practice to prepare for AP exams I tailor tutoring sessions to fit the skill level of each student.In addition to Spanish and French, I tutor in Writing, Literature, Grammar and Mechanics. I am multi-published (young adult novels, short stories, biographies, and translations). Over the years, I have coached many new writers, both adults and young adults.In my free time (when I'm not writing), I like to swim, read, and play backgammon. I have three grown children, two cats, and two dogs.

I am medical student attending the University of Kentucky. My experience tutoring has both informal and formal components. Informally, I have tutored fellow students in classes that we share. Formally, I teach an organic chemistry recitation at UK. Subjects that I tutor are organic chemistry, mathematics, and biology. I do not have a favorite subject to tutor because I find there to be something very interesting about each subject. My philosophy to teaching is to look at it with the perspective of an enjoyable intellectual conversation. Learning is life-long so let us find the enjoyment in learning. My hobbies outside of academia include listening to music, cooking, and badminton.

I enjoy helping students from around the world learn to read and communicate in English. My approach to learning is a balance of developing skills combined with real-life experiences. I enjoy learning about my students and helping them grow into confident English communicators!

I graduated from Pennsylvania State University with a Bachelor of Science in Biology. I received my Master of Science in Forestry with a focus on wildlife genetics from the University of Kentucky. Since graduating, I have worked primarily in the field of wildlife conservation and research. I am extremely passionate about science; my favorite subjects are Biology, Zoology, Ecology, and Environmental Science. Early in my academic career I was very fortunate to be taught Biology through the Socratic Method. This style of teaching challenges a student's fundamental understanding of subject material through strategic inquiry and debate. This method is well suited for teaching science and builds critical thinking skills that can be applied to all aspects of a student's life. The critical thinking skills I acquired are still with me today, and they have become second nature and allow me to enter into any challenge (academic, professional, or personal) with confidence. In my free time I enjoy all types of outdoor activities as well as travel, photography, art, reading, and deck hockey.

I am a graduate of the Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology. I received my Bachelor of Science in Mathematics. Since graduation, I have tutored high school students in algebra, geometry, precalculus, and statistics; adults in college looking for remedial help as well as standard college level math including calculus, differential equations, and discrete math. In my experience helping struggling students prepare for standardized tests, we always seem to have the most fun (with remarkable advancements) prepping for the mathematics and quantitative reasoning sections. I am a firm proponent of education, believing it to be absolutely necessary for an improved quality of life, and I try to impart this appreciation to all of my students. In my spare time, I enjoy reading US History and STEM textbooks, playing my Nintendo Switch, and the odd game of Catan.

Why are you passionate about helping students? Describe your experience working with students. Where did you get your education? What degree(s) have you attained? What degree(s) are you working toward? I enjoy tutoring English, Language Arts, Reading, and Writing. I'm an avid reader and write in my spare time - one might call me a Book Nerd! I believe that success in reading and writing contribute to success in all other arenas. As we begin to work with others, communication is key, and having a solid understanding of the English language can make a tremendous difference when working with others. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy working in real estate, collecting rocks, coaching athletes and working in pain recovery coaching, and substituting in our local schools. I look forward to working with you!

I am currently a rising senior at the University of Kentucky. I am working towards my Bachelor of Science in Biology with a minor in math and neuroscience. I have been tutoring students from elementary to high school for four years in math. I enjoy working with students, of course to provide academic support, but also to build an environment that encourages them to think outside the box and feel comfortable in doing so. I do tutor high school chemistry, but my primary focus is on various levels of math. From my experience, teaching mathematical concepts can be challenging without being able to adapt to the strengths of weaknesses of every individual. I believe it is crucial that students are given an opportunity to learn that adheres to their individual characteristics. Aside from academia, I enjoy staying physically active, volunteering throughout my community, and being a huge sports fanatic.

I am a certified teacher (Certifications in the state of Texas, Louisiana, and Pennsylvania) with over 12 years of experience in education.

After spending 30 years as an attorney in Kentucky, I decided in my retirement to return to my first love, teaching. I completed my undergraduate degree in English / Language Arts, but then decided to pursue my Juris Doctorate. I have practiced in courts throughout the state, but found the greatest satisfaction working with at-risk kids in the juvenile court system. Consequently, when I retired two years ago, I decided to spend my second career in education. I am pursuing my Rank II and my specialist certification in LBD (Learning and Behavior Disorders) education. I have also had the opportunity to work in adult education, as I was called upon to host continuing legal education training and to teach classes for the Commonwealth of Kentucky Department of Criminal Justice Training. Because of my long career in government, I also very much enjoy teaching social studies and criminal justice programs. I feel that bringing real world experience on top of academia lends me a unique perspective in those areas.

I am pursuing a B.S. degree in Neuroscience at the University of Kentucky that I will successfully complete in the Fall of 2020. I have tutored a wide range of students, both my peers and younger, in mostly STEM related fields. Although I tutor in a few different subjects, the subjects I am most passionate about are College level Biology, Organic Chemistry, and Biochemistry. Learning about a difficult topic may seem challenging at times, but I believe that everyone has the ability and motivation to successfully tackle difficult concepts with some help!

I am a public educator in the state of Kentucky, and I am in my 10th year teaching. I am certified to teach English/Language Arts in grades 6-12, as well as English as a Second Language in grades K-12. I have a bachelor's degree from the University of Kentucky and a Master's in Teaching from the University of Louisville. I currently teach 10th grade ELA, reading intervention, and ESL. I teach students with IEPs, PSPs, and myriad other educational needs. I believe that all students are capable of achieving academic success. I believe students can show their learning in many ways. Helping students become better readers and writers is my passion!

I am deeply passionate about education and its ability to unlock potential and build confidence in students. With over 5 years of tutoring experience, I have worked with diverse learners in both individual and group settings, helping them navigate subjects such as calculus, algebra, and statistics. My dual Bachelor's degrees in Mathematical Economics and Economics from the University of Kentucky equip me with a strong foundation in the subjects I teach. My teaching philosophy emphasizes fostering independence and a growth mindset, where I encourage students to view challenges as opportunities for learning. I tailor my approach to each student's unique needs, ensuring that every session is engaging and relatable. Witnessing students overcome obstacles and achieve their goals is what fuels my dedication to tutoring, as I strive to make a positive impact on their academic journeys.

I am a recent graduate of the University of Kentucky with a Master of Science in Animal Nutrition. I received my Bachelor of Science in Animal Sciences from Cornell University. While I tutor various subjects, I am most passionate about tutoring math and feel that our school systems often fail students when it comes to math. I do not believe that some people simply "can't do math." I believe that some may need extra time and help, but everyone can do math. With patience and hard work, any student can learn. I also enjoy tutoring Spanish, which I have studied since I was in elementary. During undergrad, I even studied abroad in Barcelona and lived with a host family. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, dancing, TV/movies, and knitting.

In May of 2015 I received a Bachelor of Science in Neuroscience and Psychology and a Bachelor of Arts in Biology and Psychology from the University of Cincinnati. August of 2017 I received a Master of Science in Medical Science from the University of Kentucky. I currently work doing research on Gaucher Disease. I have been tutoring/teaching in some form for the last 10 years, working with children and adults of all ages. Previously I have spent 4 years as an instructional assistant/assistant band director. During this time I was afforded the opportunity to get to work one on one with many different types of students. I taught a class of 30 middle school students 6 periods of the day where I worked with them on increasing their math and reading skills. After school I would tutor grades 6 through 12 mostly in math and science. I also gave private music lessons after school. I have experience working with special needs students and have worked as a sensory motor coach for children ages 3 to 18 with development and sensory disorders. My favorite subjects to tutor are math and science but I am comfortable tutoring many different subjects. I like being able to see to help the student make connections from the subject material to their own lives. When tutoring I like to make sure the student is involved in the process. I like to ask them questions about the material and to help them draw out and visualize the solution. Every student learns differently and I feel they do better when they can personally relate to the material and find a connection to their own life. In my spare time I enjoy playing music, painting, reading, rock climbing and spending time with my family.

I am an experienced energy professional with a demonstrated history of knowledge of the energy industry. Skilled in ArcGIS, Spanish, Matlab, Microsoft Excel, Statistics, Renewable Energy, mathematics and Physics. Strong research professional with a Master's Degree focused in Environmental Science with a concentration in energy from Indiana University Bloomington. I have two years of experience tutoring undergraduate and graduate students in math and statistics.

I am an aspiring teacher who received a Bachelors in Science in Chemistry, with Honors, from the University of Pittsburgh and a Doctor of Philosophy in Pharmaceutical Sciences from the University of Kentucky. I have experience teaching and tutoring elementary and middle school students in Math and Science, and high school and college students in Chemistry, Biology and Physics. My favorite subject to tutor is Chemistry because Chemistry plays an integral role in all of the things that we see and experience in our every day lives (not just in making things explode on the show MythBusters). As for my teaching style, I prefer to tailor my teaching style to the individual needs and learning style of each student that I work with. I recognize that everyone learns differently and has different needs to be successful. Outside of teaching and tutoring, I enjoy playing and watching sports, being outdoors, arts and crafts, reading, watching movies, listening to music, playing video games and spending time with my friends.

I earned my Bachelor of Science in Chemistry from the University of Kentucky in 2007 and my Master's of Science in Chemistry from Georgia Tech in 2010. Following graduation, I worked as a chemistry professor for 3 1/2 years at Gordon State College teaching General College Chemistry I & II (chemistry, inorganic chemistry, and physical chemistry) and Organic Chemistry I & II. For the first two years that I was a chemistry instructor I was the youngest faculty member on campus and my classes would always be among the first to fill up. In my classroom, my colleagues would describe me as being the goofiest person in the room but it was something that I found necessary to connect with my students. Being a younger professor I remember what it was like to be a student and I remember the things that truly got my attention. I would teach my classes using superheroes, football references, mythbusters, and even relate some material to the school bus. In my office hours, I would be able to find out what interested the students and come up with an example that they would be able to understand. In the sciences, I believe learning should be as much hands on as possible and I used a variety of outside resources to teach various concepts, whether it would be using balloons, dry ice, tennis balls and paper wads, or even LIGHTING WATER ON FIRE. In addition to all of the chemistry subjects (up to a graduate level), I am qualified to teach physics, algebras 1-4, geometry, pre-calculus, and can do SAT and ACT math prep.Outside of the classroom I enjoy watching football and college basketball, going to broadway shows like the Book of Mormon, Wicked, and Monty Python's Spamalot, and going to comic book conventions. After experiencing DragonCon while living in the Atlanta area, there is nothing more fun than watching people dress up in Halloween costumes when it's not Halloween. Finally, I am an avid bowler and love to cook as these are my releases when I am over stressed.

As a dedicated educator with a Doctorate in Experimental Psychology from the University of Kentucky, I have over 10 years of tutoring and classroom experience specializing in AP Psychology, Neuroscience, Scientific writing, Research Methods, and Study Skills. My teaching philosophy centers on fostering a supportive learning environment where students feel empowered to explore their interests and develop critical thinking skills. I am passionate about helping students navigate complex psychological concepts and enhance their writing skills, guiding them toward achieving their academic goals. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy reading about the latest research in neuroscience and exploring new writing techniques, which I often incorporate into my lessons to keep them engaging and relevant.

My goal is to meet students where they are in order to support them in their learning. By understanding each student's unique interests, learning styles, and academic abilities, I will assist them in meeting their learning goals. As far as my experience in education goes, I taught elementary school for five years. I've taught kindergarten, 1st grade, and K-4 Reading Intervention. After those five years, I was fortunate enough to be able to stay at home upon the birth of my son. While staying at home with him, I earned my Yoga Teacher Training certification. Currently, I am a yoga instructor, and I'm looking to get back into education.

Hello!My name is Jenna. I am 22 years old and just graduated from the University of Kentucky with a double degree in French and Biochemistry.

I believe in making concrete real-world connections, as well as chunking and breaking difficult concepts into manageable pieces to find student success. I believe a strong education will build a foundation for each of my students.

Hi, my name is Lawrence. I have been teaching physics and astronomy at the university level for over 20 years. I know how difficult learning physics can be. I emphasize the concepts first and then simplify the steps needed to find the correct solution to a problem. I am very patient and understanding. I am sure that I can help build you into a confident problem solver. I have experience teaching a culturally diverse student population as I have taught at several universities including the University of Alaska Anchorage and the University of Hawaii Hilo. Everyone can learn physics if they have the right work-ethic and are properly instructed. The most important key to succeeding is practice, practice, practice. You can do it! I have a PH.D. from the University of Alabama at Birmingham. My research was funded by a NASA PIDDP Grant and by the Alabama Space Grant Consortium. I have presented my research at the Lunar and Planetary Science Conference and my Dissertation "Mossbauer Spectroscopy of K-T Boundary Clays from North American and European Sites" was published in Meteoritics. Although, I loved research my dream was always to help educate students in physics which I have enjoyed doing for many years. With over 20 years' experience ,I can help you!

I am a graduate of The University of Kentucky. I received my graduate degree in applied Economics.

I am a master's candidate graduate student at the University of Kentucky. I am furthering my education in Mechanical Engineering, and thus have taken many courses focusing on science, math, and engineering. I received my BS in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Kentucky. I have a passion for teaching and helping others reach their academic and professional goals, and know that I can make a positive impact on the world this way. I have the ability to tutor many subjects, but a few of my best subjects include Algebra I and II, Geometry, Calculus, Physics, Engineering Statics, Dynamics, and Mechanical Design. To give the absolute best tutoring in these subjects, I intend to understand the student's learning style and use that to our advantage. Learning is an individual process, so attention to the individual is crucial. In my spare time, I enjoy being outdoors, whether its hiking, camping, biking, or taking a walk. I also want to start my own business some day or invent something using the knowledge I've acquired throughout my education.

My favorite subject in school has always been science. If there was a class I never wanted to skip, it was always some type of science, and when it came time to choose a college major I already knew I wanted to be a biologist! While learning about all the different aspects of biology, genetics, insects, marine life, and plants were my favorite focus areas. So when I decided to go to grad school it was an easy pick to become an Entomologist! Being any type of scientist requires heavy math, communication, and reading skills, so I have been refining my skills in those areas as I went through college and then grad school.I have also learned how to communicate things in lots of different ways, including sign language (ASL), art (painting and drawing), and presenting online via Zoom. I was hired as a substitute teacher last year as I finished up my degree, so I also learned how to communicate with lots of different aged people! As your tutor, I will work with you and your specific personality to best teach you what I can. I have used a lot of visual representation in the past, as well as having the student talk through the lesson to see if they could teach me the information.I have been to Belize to study marine biology, farms around the US to study insects, and have "been" many places to present via Zoom! I love to meet new people and would love to meet you!

I am a Stanford University graduate, certified teacher, and experienced tutor with nearly a decade of success helping students strengthen skills, improve grades, and rediscover confidence in learning. I have taught 5th12th grade math, science, and core subjects in both traditional and specialized school settings, including classrooms designed for students with behavioral, emotional, and learning differences. Those years taught me how to make learning accessible for every studentthrough flexibility, creativity, and encouragement. My background spans teaching middle school math and science, high school biology, chemistry, and algebra, and providing individualized support in reading, writing, and executive functioning skills. I've worked with students who are excelling and want enrichment, as well as those who need structure and scaffolding to regain academic confidence. This balance has helped me build a tutoring style that blends patience, strategy, and real enthusiasm for helping students find success on their own terms. I'm especially passionate about biology and applied math, because they teach students how to make sense of the world around thembut I love working across subjects to help students connect ideas and strengthen critical thinking. My sessions are student-centered and adaptable; I tailor each lesson to meet specific goals, whether it's homework help, test preparation, study skills development, or long-term enrichment. I focus on understanding over memorization, helping students truly master concepts so they can approach future challenges with confidence. My teaching philosophy is grounded in respect, curiosity, and individualized growth. I believe all students deserve a learning space where they feel supported and capable, and I bring humor, patience, and clear structure to every session. Outside of teaching, I enjoy writing, hands-on creative design projects, and spending time outdoors. These interests keep me curious, energized, and connected to the same love of discovery I hope to foster in my students.

An alumnus of the University of Kentucky, I graduated this past May with a degree in Biology and Business Management, minoring in Economics and International Business, and am headed to medical school in the fall. As a student, both in college and in high school, I have always found enjoyment and fulfillment in being able to share knowledge through the process of tutoring.In college, I worked for a volunteer learning center in the biology department, tutoring other college students in introductory biology, genetics, evolution, and biochemistry, among other biology subjects; in high school, I taught classes for the ACT, with credibility based on my own performance in the exam, to raise donations for a nonprofit. While I enjoy tutoring a broad range of subjects, my favorite subjects to tutor are science, math, and standardized testing. In each of these, I relish the intellectual challenge by which problems are addressed and solved.Regardless of the topic and of my own tutoring ability, I believe that the proliferation of content and accomplishment on the internet shows that with time and dedication, anyone can learn anything. I aspire to take the time and dedication to help you accomplish the true learning that education aspires to impart.Outside of the classroom, I enjoy watching sports of all kinds, love skiing, playing basketball, soccer, and ultimate frisbee, reading about all kinds of science and societal topics, and appreciate keeping up with what I one day want to make a career out of: public health.

With a PhD in Civil Engineering and over 20 years of university teaching experience, I bring a unique, application-focused approach to tutoring. My engineering background means I don't just teach formulas - I show students how math powers everything from bridge design to computer algorithms. This real-world perspective makes abstract concepts click for students who struggle with traditional "memorize and apply" methods. This practical approach makes abstract ideas concrete and helps students understand not just "how" to solve problems, but "why" the methods work. I specialize in SAT Math preparation, high school science, and all levels of mathematics from Algebra through Calculus. My tutoring philosophy is simple: every student can succeed with the right guidance and approach. My approach centers on building genuine understanding and confidence. I focus on building deep conceptual understanding rather than rote memorization, helping students develop problem-solving strategies that serve them long after our sessions end. I tailor my teaching style to each student's needs: some need visual explanations, others need to talk through concepts, and some need to see multiple examples. Whatever your learning style, I'll adapt my approach to help you succeed. My ultimate goal isn't just better grades (though those certainly come!) - it's helping students become independent, confident problem-solvers.

I am a 2020 graduate from the University of Kentucky where I received my teaching certification in Interdisciplinary Early Childhood Education. I began my teaching career for the 2020-2021 school year in a Preschool Special Education position and have changed classrooms for the 2021-2022 school year in an inclusive Kindergarten classroom. My biggest passion is helping individuals strive and become successful in and out of a classroom. I am continuously becoming the best educator I can be while adapting and modifying lessons to meet each individual students' needs. I am so excited to work with you and your child!

I graduated from Centre College with a BS in physics, then from the University of Kentucky with my Master's degree in physics as well. I have tutored and taught across the whole range of physics and math. I have had more than my fair share of instructors who are brilliant in many ways, but not when it comes to teaching. I have been a teaching assistant in graduate school, an adjunct professor at 2-year and 4-year colleges (including my alma mater), taught in-person and remote, and tutored from introductory algebra-based physics through advanced topics. I understand that most folks who take physics do so because it's a required course to "get through" and not something they are necessarily passionate about; this makes it all the more fulfilling when my students make connections between physics and their daily lives, struggle and succeed at solving tough problems, and are ultimately able to look at how much they've developed their problem-solving skills along the way. I'm happiest when I hear those three magic words: "that makes sense." Years from now, even if you've forgotten the specific equations, I hope the analytical thinking and confidence you gained in studying physics helps you in whatever you pursue. I am a believer in a well-rounded education. I studied at a tiny liberal arts college, spent a semester abroad, and strive to constantly learn everything I can. Physics and math are just two lenses (or two sides of a single lens, depending on your perspective) through which we can try to understand the world around us. We owe it to each other to use our talents and efforts to make a better world for everyone. Teaching this challenging subject is one of the ways I try to achieve that lofty goal for myself. When I'm not teaching, you can find me playing sand volleyball, discussing politics with my friends, and trying (but usually failing) to spend less time gaming.

As a seasoned educator and dual- masters degree holder in Sports-Exercise Psychology and Clinical Mental Health Counseling, I bring a unique blend of expertise to the world of tutoring. With a background in teaching Physical Education and Health to K-12 students, coupled with my experience as a substitute teacher specializing in Reading and Math, I am dedicated to fostering holistic growth and academic success in every student. My passion for promoting physical and mental well-being has driven me to seamlessly integrate psychology principles into my tutoring approach. I believe in empowering students to not only excel academically but also develop resilience, confidence, and a growth mindset. With a proven track record of engaging students of all ages and learning styles, I am committed to tailoring my teaching methods to suit individual needs, ensuring an effective and enjoyable learning experience. I have experience assisting students with English, History, health & sports courses, the GRE, GMAT, LSAT & more.

I'm extremely passionate about helping students grow and achieve their academic goals. I truly enjoy education and try to instill that love in all of the students I work with.
