Graduated summa cum laude with degrees in applied math and economics. 3+ years of tutoring experience with a teaching style that is encouraging, clear, and thorough. Fervent believer that with the right teacher, anyone can develop mastery and achieve success. Really enjoy flying, swimming, traveling, and spending time with my family, friends, and pets!

I have been teaching diverse groups of learners from middle schoolers to graduate students for almost 20 years now. My first MA in English and Spanish Linguistics I received from the Oldest School of Education in Russia in 2004. After that, I applied for a doctorate program at the same university with the purpose to immerse into academia, understand the theories and principles of teaching on a more profound level, as well as to teach college students. I worked at the same university for 4 years as an associate professor of English.In 2015 I relocated to the US as an international student seeking an MA in TESOL. In 2017, I accepted a job offer as a middle school ELA teacher and worked in this capacity for a year. In 2018, I decided to return back to academia and enrolled in the Ph.D. program at UNM. Currently, I am in the process of preparation of my research that explores socio-cultural mentoring of adult ESL learners.I have always been passionate about helping students as it is through their academic development and through being supported our society can get better.Throughout my career, I have taught Business English, English for Specific Purposes (Geography, Math, Art), General English, English Language Arts in middle school. I have also tutored Russian as a Foreign Language, ESL, and academic writing. At this time, my favorite professional activity is tutoring writing and providing my students with feedback on their writing assignments, particularly considering that in this time of my academic career I write a lot.When working with my students I always approach them with care and support to their academic and life situations and try to accommodate any needs they may have. I am passionate when explaining the material and always make sure that even the most challenging material becomes understandable and clear to my students through my scaffolding.

All students have a path to progress; including students with disabilities. A student and teacher must discover the best learning strategies for effective and efficient progress, together.

Hi there, I'm India! I am a recent graduate from the University of New Mexico with a degree in Elementary Education with a focus on mathematics and computer science. Through my experience with the Albuquerque Public Schools, spending countless hours in the classroom, on top of about 7-8+ years of experience teaching computer science online, I cannot express the importance of flexible, reliable, and well-balanced sessions that revolve around not only what your students needs - but dive into the passions they are curious about. My sessions are centered on prior recall, active knowledge retention through effective activities, real-world connections, and fluency strategies that allow the student to practice concepts in and outside of class actively. Throughout my time in high school and college, teaching my focused skills online was a must, given the pandemic at hand. I had the opportunity to teach through several online platforms, including Codeverse and Varsity Tutors. Both of these companies taught me my greatest skills today: how to effectively connect and impact students' skills through technology. The answer is not easy, but it comes with timeless effort, passion, and a drive for student learning. I am continuously improving my techniques within my lesson planning, hands-on materials and activities, and content acquisition strategies in order to not only provide the most effective tools to your student, but also grow as an educator and gain new insights for teaching strategies. As a flexible educator within the elementary-middle school range, I am open to any level student ready to gain new knowledge and grow as a creative STEAM (Science, Tech, Engineering, Arts (writing and English concepts), Math) student! The subjects and styles of teaching are completely adaptable to the students' needs and wants in our time together. I am easy to reach and can respond within an hour to two hours - feel free to reach out if you have any questions or would like to book a trial session!

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 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 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 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.
