As a former teaching assistant for biology laboratory classes at a small private school, University of St Thomas, I love interacting with students on an individual basis to bring them to a deeper understanding of the amazing world of biology. My tutoring philosophy is to cater to every student's unique learning style, and to help them gain independence in mastering the material. I enjoy sharing with students my excitement talking about biology! I am currently in a Physician Assistant program at University of North Texas Health Science Center in Fort Worth and am loving every minute of clinical practice! I earned my Bachelor of Science in Biology with a minor in Philosophy from University of St Thomas. While an undergraduate student, I enjoyed leading fellow pre-health professional classmates as campus President of HOSA-Future Health Professionals. One of my most unforgettable health care experiences was a two-week medical missions trip which involved extensive teamwork for fundraising and bringing medical supplies to serve a remote and underserved village in Huancayo, Peru. I also received a Master of Science in Biomedical Sciences from University of North Texas Health Science Center and am pursuing a career as a Physician Assistant. While pursuing my master's degree, I learned to ask for help from teaching assistants and tutors, and am immensely grateful for their guidance! I am interested in academia after gaining several years of clinical experience as a PA. In my free-time, I enjoy cooking, dancing, and spending time with my two lovely poodles. I am also passionate about rescuing animals!

I love to teach the basics of Spanish and French! I have taught as a teaching fellow for a couple of years at the University of Houston, and as a public school teacher for nineteen years. Having raised four children, I know what kind of work it takes after school for students to be successful. Whether you are looking to improve your proficiency in Spanish, English or French, for personal, professional or school goals, I look forward to facilitating your learning and increased proficiency.

I am a graduate of the University of St. Thomas in Houston, Texas with a BA in Criminology, Law & Society. I love helping people because I feel like I am helping someone else understand the information to help them and maybe eventually they will help someone else on what I taught them. My teaching philosophy is basically not to do the work for students, instead I want them to guide themselves. I am just building the ladder, the student has to climb it on their own at their own pace.

I received my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and Philosophy at The University of St. Thomas in Houston, TX. I then went on to get a Master of Science in Social Work at the University of Texas at Austin. I worked as a social worker for the State of Oklahoma Department of Human Services for ten years. I also worked with mentally ill inmates at the Mabel Basset Correctional Center for Women. I had to take early retirement due to health problems but what looked like a tragedy at the time, has allowed me to follow my childhood dream of being an author. I have sent my first crime novel, A Massage to Die For, to an editor. Before I turned to fiction, I published in several professional, psychological journals including the Journal of the Oklahoma Criminal Justice Research Consortium and the Southwestern Psychological Association. I want to be able to share the knowledge I have gained during this journey with my students.

In January of 2012, I graduated with a Master of Science in Accounting. I have a Bachelor degree in Business Administration, minoring in Management of Information Systems.Currently, as an Assistant Professor of Accounting, I teach Principles of Auditing and Other Assurance Services, Financial Accounting, Managerial Accounting, and Intermediate Accounting I & II.Previously, I held a position as an auditor in the International Registration Plan section of the Department of Motor Vehicles in Sacramento and worked as a Staff Accountant in a CPA office. I bring years of experience as a Commercial Investment Advisor to my teaching.

I am a senior at the University of St. Thomas Majoring in Computer Science. I have had experience tutoring students on campus in the computer science department for over 2 years. I am currently able to tutor computer science as well as ACT prep for both reading and science. When tutoring students long term I think it's important to establish a relationship and gain rapport to better connect and engage.

A quality education serves as the cornerstone for unlocking boundless opportunities and achieving enduring success in life. Beyond imparting knowledge, it cultivates critical thinking, problem-solving skills, and fosters creativityessential attributes in navigating the complexities of the modern world. Education empowers individuals to adapt to changing circumstances, innovate, and contribute meaningfully to society. It not only equips one with the expertise required for a chosen field but also instills values of perseverance, resilience, and lifelong learning. By investing in education, we invest in our collective future, creating a pathway towards personal fulfillment, professional advancement, and societal progress.

I hold my Elementary Teaching Degree from Bemidji State University, my Masters in Curriculum and Instruction K-12 from the University of St. Thomas, and a current Minnesota Teaching License. I retired almost 3 years ago after teaching for 34 wonderful years in the public school system, teaching 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 5th grade. There were so many things that I loved about teaching that my friends wondered why I was retiring. But, I have been blessed with three grandchildren on opposite ends of the country, and if I want to have fun with them, I need to be available. This led me to spend the next four years teaching English as a Second Language online to students aged 3-16, for which I hold TSOL and TFEL certificates. I found out that genuine, meaningful relationships can be formed virtually. And this love of teaching flexibly, online, brought me to Varsity Tutors. My first love of teaching is making students feel like they can learn anything, cheering them on, and making them love learning. Students want to know that you truly care about and believe in them, and I do! While I am available to teach many subjects, and I truly love them all, reading, writing, math, and English as a Second Language are my favorites. I am passionate about teaching students to not only read, but to LOVE reading! I excel at diagnosing current reading skills, and determining what they still need to learn in order to move them to the next level. I take into consideration their fluency, accuracy, comprehension, and reading strategies that they employ, and what ones they need to practice. If you can read, you can learn anything! I love teaching math, and making reluctant math students realize their inner math genius! I understand that not all learners learn the same way. I am very willing to teach them more than one way to solve a problem and help them become an expert at the way that works for them. I love teaching writing! I was fortunate to get to train under author Beth Olshansky in the art of pictures and image making. This is such a motivating way to teach students how to write, honing all of the skills necessary, including all of the traits of good writing, while the student creates a piece to be proud of. This makes the student want to write more! It is a writing strategy that works for young and older learners alike! I enjoy filling my days with traveling, baking, reading, and playing with my grandkids. In the summer I paddleboard almost daily, and in the winter I love to snowshoe. I hope to see you soon!

I have been teaching for over twenty years. I have worked with children across different age group (K-12) and adults (English language learners) from diverse cultural background. I am Texas state certified Elementary teacher, and K-12 Special Education and ESL certified. I have worked with English language learners and children with disabilities. I have worked across all ages from Pre-school through High school in both public and charter schools. I enjoy working with children and have a great passion to see students make progress.I enjoy reading, traveling and meeting people.

I am passionately pursuing my degree in physics and am committed helping students achieve their academic goals through Varsity Tutors. I believe that anyone can learn math and achieve their academic goals and I am happy to assist. I enjoy working with all age groups and have experience in tutoring children with A.D.H.D. and dyslexia.

I love to teach. I feel most purposeful when I help students acquire knowledge. I believe that all students have the ability to learn with patient instruction, a safe, supportive, and structured learning environment, and access to research based curriculum.

As a passionate educator with a Ph.D. from the Center for Research and Higher Education in Anthropology in Mexico and a MA degree from the University of California, Santa Barbara, I have over 18 years of tutoring and teaching experience at the college level. I am fluent in Spanish and Portuguese and have training in teaching second languages, including English. I am familiar with accents and slang from a variety of Latin American countries as well as Spain and Portugal and I can help you learn the cultural norms that accompany speaking in a new language and culture. I will help you get started on your path toward learning a new language or discipline on day one in a way that is easy and fun! I aim to create a supportive learning environment that engages students through active learning exercises. I believe in tailoring my approach to meet each student's unique interests and strengths, helping them connect their personal experiences with the subject matter. This holistic methodology not only fosters academic success but also ignites a genuine passion for learning. Learning new things should be fun and empowering and I will make sure you have a positive experience and meet all your learning goals and more!

I believe the purpose of education is to ensure all students learn and grow to the best of their ability. I believe students learn best when they are shown exactly how to do something and are given a path to follow. As an educator, it's my job to teach them how to use different skills and strategies to be successful , life-long learners. I believe when a student feels confident because they understand what they are doing, they are capable of achieving any goal that they set. It is my job to ensure that they gain that confidence and knowledge to achieve their goals.

Having tutored for over two years, I take pride in my ability to meet students where they are in their understanding and present material in ways that are tailored to each student. I'm an extremely patient and determined tutor and my number one objective is the success of the student. I specialize in organic chemistry and calculus and look forward to meeting you!

Retired, energetic Special Education teacher with an astute understanding of lesson planning and individualized literacy and numeracy strategies. I have a Master's degree in Education and many years of success in the classroom. I am looking to bring further success to scholars by positively engaging them both in groups and individually. I am certified in dyslexia intervention with success with students from early childhood to adult. It is my absolute joy to positively impact students and watchthem soar!

I'm a passionate tutor with a Bachelor's degree in Biology and Psychology, and I'm excited to work with students from elementary to high school. My love for science and understanding of how people learn help me create engaging lessons that resonate with each student. I believe learning should be a collaborative and enjoyable journey. I focus on building a supportive environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and exploring new ideas. By tailoring my approach to their individual needs, I aim to help them not just understand the material but also develop critical thinking skills that will serve them well beyond the classroom. As I pursue a career in healthcare, I'm eager to inspire students to see the value of education in shaping their futures. Together, we can make learning a fun and fulfilling experience!

I'm interested in getting to know students to evaluate how best to accommodate or complement their learning desires and needs. I want to know what makes them apprehensive to or love a subject/topic and how to engage them to advance from where they begin. It should be an exciting journey for both of us!I'm a recently graduate dentist who has a strong writing, science, and math background!

I am a motivated and enthusiastic tutor with over 20 years of experience in tutoring students of all different ages. I have served as everything from a full-time classroom teacher, to a small group mentor, to a one-on-one tutor. I have mentored virtually every age learner, from Pre-K to adult, and have experience with everything from home-education to private and parochial schools to public school education.When I'm not teaching, tutoring, or mothering my own 7 children, I enjoy a variety of activities. I love being outdoors in general, but my passion is for rock climbing. I also enjoy reading all kinds of literature and philosophy and cheering my kids on in their myriad sports and activities.My number one priority in teaching is to empower my students to understand how they learn best and what motivates them. I want my students to feel a passion for learning, even if they do not feel it for every subject. I have been told that I bring energy, enthusiasm, and creativity to the learning environment, and that these qualities are contagious. I hope to pass this enthusiasm for learning on to my students and that my students will, in turn, pass it on to those around them.

Everyone can learn as long as they are interested. There are different learning styles, and I am willing to work with you to find the best method of learning for you.

I taught AP & IB Physics for six years in the late 90's, with exceptional success for my students on all AP and IB exams. I've also taught regular physics (as opposed to college prep). And I taught Algebra 1 through Calculus in rural Louisiana through the Teach For America program before I got licensed to teach physics. These and other teaching jobs involved quite a bit of one-on-one work with students.Even though I was known for guiding my students to good results on the AP and IB physics tests, that wasn't what mattered most to me. I wanted to share my excitement and love for math and physics. The most important results for me were seeing students get excited about physics, and start doing their own exploring. Test scores come and go, but attitude and enthusiasm are forever.

Teaching is the greatest of the arts since the medium is the human mind and spirit.

I am a junior at the University of St. Thomas studying Actuarial Science with a minor in Economics. My goal is to become an actuary at an insurance company. I tutor Spanish, ACT Math, Algebra, Calculus, Discrete Math, Finite Mathematics, Middle School Math, Pre-Algebra, and Statistics. Of these, my favorite subjects are Calculus and Statistics because I find that they have many real-world applications. I love math and hope to help others understand it and enjoy it! When not doing math, I enjoy cycling, swimming, and playing volleyball.

I love educating and especially educating in non-traditional environments. If you spoke to my former students I am sure they would have stories to tell of outdoor classes before social distancing was a thing! I love to be a learner with my students.Growing up in the wilds of Northern Saskatchewan and for a time without power or plumbing has given me a creative and pioneering spirit.I love to unlock what motivates each student for their own success. When you "own it" you can do it! There are more than a thousand ways to learn but none of it is possible without personal ownership. You own it, and I will work hard to give whatever tools I can!Another way to say it. If you have a "why" you will be motivated for the "how".I received my formal education in several schools over several States. I began with Philosophy at Magdalene College in New Hampshire, I studied education at Eastern Michigan University, and I went on to study Theology at the University of St. Thomas in Minnesota.The subjects I am passionate about are History, Writing, Philosophy, and Theology. I love seeking truth and I am in pursuit of wisdom wherever I can find it.

I am a proud graduate of the University of St. Thomas. I received my Bachelor of Arts in English with a concentration in Literature, as well as a minor in medieval studies. I have an extensive history of teaching and tutoring, beginning in high school when I worked for three years as a tour guide for elementary school classes. While working towards my undergraduate degree, I worked as a private English tutor, and was later recommended to and hired by my university's tutorial center. I have worked with elementary aged children, middle-schoolers, high schoolers, undergraduates, and graduate students. While I am comfortable tutoring any subject under the large umbrella of "English" (ex: reading comprehension, grammar, etc) I am most passionate about helping students comprehend difficult literature and write excellent essays! My students oftentimes come to sessions stressed and anxious about their assignments, but then leave with peace of mind and confidence. I am a firm believer that encouragement and positive reinforcement inspire academic success, and nothing makes me happier than seeing my students use the tools I give them to tackle difficult assignments with enthusiasm.

I live by the following motto. "You teach what you are, so be something worth teaching". My goal is to get the students to the Eureka's moment, when they realize that the subject matter is actually enlightening. My background is diverse as I'm a very curious individual. I studied Political Science and Foreign languages at Ruhr Universitaet in Bochum, Germany. There I spent 4 years teaching students both French and German. Then I went to Concordia University to study Finance and graduated with a MBA. My engineering mindset titillates me to get a Master of Science in Software Engineering from the University of St Thomas. I have worked in Finance, mostly in Investment both retail and institutional, during which I have consistently taught French, English and German on the side. My passion has always been languages. I speak six different languages. Now, I work as an IT Consultant for 3M.

I am a PhD student in Pharmacology at the University of Virginia. Previously, I attended the University of St. Thomas in St. Paul Minnesota and earned a B.S in Biochemistry. It was during my undergraduate career that I became interested and passionate about teaching. I found the process of helping others understand material I loved, to be exhilarating. As a graduate student I had limited opportunities to pursue tutoring. As such, I have joined Varsity Tutoring and am SO excited for the chance to get back into teaching students AND learning from them.I am a scientist so, I love tutoring students in biochemistry, cell and molecular biology, microbiology and many other topics. I also enjoy history.When I am not in school, you can find me cooking, reading or playing with the dog my boyfriend and I share. I absolutely love to travel and can never get enough of photography.I look forward to the chance to help out any students who are struggling in any scientific field, particularly in biology!!!

I believe that students have the ability to achieve and learn at high levels. With my experience of tutoring and teaching online as well as in person, I feel that I have the tools to help a variety of different types of learners.

I have a passion for literature, writing, and philosophy; I love to learn and teach these subjects and know how to make them come alive! I believe in breaking down big problems into concrete and easy steps - whether that be a math problem or a ten-page paper. In the past, I have tutored everyone from fellow college classmates to grade school students. I love coming alongside people and helping them learn.

I received my Bachelor of Arts in Applied Mathematics from the University of St. Thomas in Houston, Texas. I tutor any math up through high school Pre-Calculus. My favorite subject to tutor is Algebra because its fun to work with problems that require high-level logical and analytical thinking. These are essential skills every student (and every person) can benefit from practicing.From my past experience as a private tutor, I have found that students who struggle with math often do not receive a sufficient amount of time to process, understand, and practice what they learned class. Without a firm grasp on the content, students will quickly fall behind, as math builds upon itself. Understandably then, mathematics can seem daunting; however, math is really just a shorthand language we use to describe everyday thingsone just needs to take time and care to comprehend it. As a tutor, I give students the guidance and confidence they need in their own abilities to succeed. Since education ultimately exists to liberate people from ignorance, illuminating the "why" and the "how" behind things is very important to me. Making sure that students understand the content and can apply it outside of my help is my goal, as opposed to offering memorization tricks or shortcuts simply for the sake of completion, which benefit no one in the long run.When I'm not tutoring, you'll likely find me spending time with my husband and children. I also enjoy a wide range of outdoor and energetic activities, including playing recreational sports and visiting parks.

I received my Bachelor of Science in Biology from the University of Saint Thomas with a concentration in zoology and environmental science. I am currently working towards a PhD in Entomology at the University of Minnesota. I also have an Associate of Arts in Liberal Arts from North Hennepin Community College.My tutoring experiences include serving as a peer biology tutor, and as a general STEM and writing tutor for K-12 and adult learners through the public library. I have also taught freshman college level courses in entomology and human biology.I am a broadly trained biologist and can provide tutoring for a variety of biological topics. My current research is split between ecology and molecular biology. I have also received training to tutor essay writing and have experience working with ESL students.I believe that STEM is for everyone and that mastering biology is within every student's reach. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with friends and family, dancing, and hiking.

I am passionate about helping students because as a parent I have seen the positive impact having a tutor can bring to a child's education. I have been a teacher for over ten years working with students that range in grades from kindergarten through 8th grade. In 2022, I received my master's degree in Instructional Design and Technology from St. Thomas University. I am currently certified to teach Spanish (k-12), Elementary Education, and Visual Arts. I am happy to tutor any of these subjects as I am well versed in all three. I am fluent in Spanish, have taught 4th grade, and a mixed media artist. I like to engage my students and practice through real life examples. Outside of school, I enjoy the outdoors with my family as well as cooking and baking with my kids.

Hi, my name is Atul, my friends call me Anton or Anthony, and I would like to be your English and/or Mathematics teacher. For the past 3 years, I have taught English to the students in Honduras, Central America. There is no greater joy than to see students getting the knowledge to be better citizens. I chose to teach because I wanted to make a difference. I remember my high school teacher Mrs. Mennon. She taught me the importance of being a good student. She took the time to offer extra help to all the students. While teaching in Copan Ruinas in Honduras, I had the opportunity to help students with a particularly difficult math concept that they were having trouble understanding. When I was able to show them a different way to approach the problem, and they got it. I knew then that I chose the right field.My teaching philosophy is simple and that is to help students learn, just the way I had the privilege to learn. In the classroom I learn from the student as much as they learn from me. I realize that each student learns in his or her unique way and that is why my teaching approach is holistic so that no student is left behind. I like to encourage a positive classroom behavior emphasizing equal interactions with students, being aware of students with special needs and establishing clear learning goals. Let us agree on a set of classroom rules together as a class. I will listen to each student as we go through this wonderful learning journey. I want to make learning fun for all students and I believe the only way I can do that is by having a positive, helping attitude. I will help you learn because I have a passion for teaching.

I am a current student at the University of St. Thomas, working towards my major of Computer Science and while I am proficient in a broad range of subjects I love math and science the most. Before university, I was able to travel with my family to a lot of places and meet a huge variety of people because of this I love meeting new people. I love hearing about their family dynamic or their group of friends at school and exchanging funny stories along the way.

I have a doctorate degree in educational leadership and curriculum development, as well as a master's degree in mathematics education. Over the past twenty years, I have worked with students from diverse backgrounds and with varying academic needs. In my experience as an educator, I believe that students can learn when provided with the right tools and support.I am certified as a math instructor for grades 5th through 9th. However, my favorite subjects are pre-algebra and algebra.

I have taught 1st & 4th grade, served as a Reading Specialist, Math Interventionist, Assistant Principal, and Instructional Coach. I have a passion for education and am so happy that I chose this career to dedicate my time to. I love working with all students, but my passion is K-2 reading instruction. I have tutored K-5 students and love using data to tailor my instruction to meet each student's individual needs.

I wish to help students reach their full potential. Throughout a child's natural development, they may run into academic challenges. I want to be an effective role model that encourages curiosity and dedication towards education. Whatever it may look like such as becoming a life long learner like myself, or any short term goals such as passing a class or a standardized test. I look forward to meeting you!

I have been involved with IT my entire career. First I was a software developer and software development manager for about 20 years. Then I became the Executive Director of IT at Aveda Corporation for 12 years where I oversaw all aspects of IT at Aveda including IT security and operations. I first became involved in ITIL certification and implementation with V2 in the year 2001. I became a V2 Service Manager and V3 Expert. In 2007 I started my ITIL consulting and certification instruction phase which has lasted to this day with V4. Over this time I also acquired certifications and have taught and consulted in COBIT 5, TOGAF 9.2, CISSP, CISM and Value Stream Mapping. I was fortunate to work in my software development manager years on the beginnings of Agile with a time box approach and a manufacturing company that used lean value stream mapping extensively in both manufacturing and back office applications. This has helped give me a real life experience with the LEAN, KANBAN and AGILE continual improvement approaches the ITIL 4 has adopted in their principles and in depth adoption in the exciting new V4 framework. Over the last ten years I have been a fulltime instructor and part-time consultant in the certifications I listed above. I also taught at the university level while consulting in IT for two years in Washington D.C. at Catholic University of America in their business undergraduate program teaching ITIL and database management. Over the last eight years I have been delivering certification courses in onsite workshops, hybrid courses and online formats. Over the last year had the pleasure to teach ITIL and CISSP courses with LeaderQuest and now ACI Learning. Why I teach The opportunity to teach brings many things together in myself as an experienced IT professional over these many years. In my personality there is a deep desire to learn and ask questions to understand and put together a holistic picture of things. Ove the years IT has been an opportunity for me to pursue a lifetime of learning. IT has challenged my growth as both a technician and a person working in and leading teams. IT is very people oriented. I believe that the frameworks in IT have some of the greatest insights into the nature of work and management in the whole world of knowledge on those subjects. We in IT have been challenged to bring this knowledge together to thrive is this complex environment: both personally and technically in digitally based organizations. I teach to contribute to those who want to take this challenge of making work in a digital world more human friendly, effective and efficient simultaneously. The students are the future of the world in this context and we need to thrive as a society of work to be a society maximizing the potential and happiness of our society. Come take the challenge with me!

Two of my favorite things are learning and helping others. These two values are reflected in almost everything I do. Tutoring is an activity that mixes those two values of mine.I obtained my Bachelors Degree in English with a focus on ESL in Vietnam in 2009. After that, I taught ESL classes for four years. I enjoyed the job tremendously. English is crucial for getting a job in a country like Vietnam. More than that, speaking another language is like living another life. I was so glad that I spent part of my life helping others achieve that dream.I moved to the States with my family in 2013. Living here made me realize that I need an education, firstly to escape the rat race of low-paid labor jobs, and secondly to achieve true living, that is, learning and helping others. Only through education can I quench my thirst for knowledge and build a career that allows me to dedicate my time and money for the needy. I chose to aim for Medical schools because studying to become a physician requires a lot of subjects, natural, social sciences and humanity alike. Also, a career as a doctor would mean a lot of opportunities to contribute to the society.College was an amazing time. Taking all the required foundation courses, graduating with Distinguished Honors 4.0 GPA, joining summer international trips to Germany and England were among the highlights. I also got a tutor job for Math and Science, which has rekindled my love for teaching. I am currently attending University of St. Thomas for my Bachelors Degree in Biochemistry. I hope to still have the time for tutoring besides studying full time.Communicating and sharing knowledge is such a beautiful thing that we human are capable of. That is what tutoring is about. I am so happy to be blessed with the ability to do this job.

I have passion for tutoring. I have an undergraduate degree in Finance, and I also carry an MBA in Finance. I've been in the business world for four years now, and I've always wanted to tutor and give others the help they need to match the same educational success that I've experienced in my life. My methods for success are simple, it takes patience and encouragement for kids to find success in certain areas especially in Math and English. If you hire me, you will be getting someone who has a passion in seeing success and improvement with whoever I tutor, and I will bring patience and new methods in order for your kid to truly grasp the material they receive in the classroom.

I'm dedicated to helping students succeed and reach their full potential. I have a bachelor's degree and two master's degrees: one in Counseling and the other in Educational Administration. With 20 years of experience in education, I've worked across all grade levels, specializing in Middle and High school students. My areas of expertise include: Grades K-5: Language Arts, Reading, Math, Science, Social Studies Grades 6-8: Math, Reading, Language Arts, Science, Social Studies High School (Grades 9-12): Reading, Social Studies I have extensive knowledge and expertise in working with students in special education, helping to fill in learning gaps and differentiating instruction based on individual needs. I chose to become a tutor because I am passionate about helping my students thrive academically and personally. Building genuine relationships with my students is crucial to me, ensuring they know I care deeply about their success. My guiding philosophy is, "People don't care how much you know until they know how much you care." When students feel valued and understood, they are more motivated to learn and work hard. In my tutoring sessions, I create a fun, structured, and inviting atmosphere that fosters learning. I encourage students to ask questions and never fear making mistakesafter all, that's how we grow and build our knowledge. My approach is designed to help students gain confidence and successfully complete their tasks. If you're looking for a tutor who will not only teach but also inspire and support your academic journey, I would be honored to work with you. Let's embark on this educational journey together and achieve great things!
