"Every day is a school day!" That sentence, spoken to me by my father one Saturday afternoon, is possibly the most important thing anyone has ever said to me. Every day brings opportunities to learn something new and exciting about our world and our place in it.My parents imbued me with a lifelong passion for education. And having three children of my own, I worked hard to instill the same passion in them. I'm proud to say that I tutored them with great success one is a doctor, another is a software engineer, and the third is a business major at a top college in the U.S.I'm now on a mission to help others learn. Not just to teach them the rules of what they are learning not just the trick to solving this formula, or why that sentence is "incomplete" but to show students how their learning relates to the real world. To show them what the application of their learning might be to their life in college or their career.I have an engineering degree from the Georgia Institute of Technology and an MBA from the University of Washington. Those degrees, in combination, give me a broad perspective on subjects rooted in math, science, and the humanities. I use that perspective daily as an entrepreneur and owner of a marketing media company serving some of the world's largest tech companies.If you're serious about your education and curious about how things work and why, I would love to tutor you. Let's get together soon and master your subject.

I recently graduated from the University of Washington with a double major in Chemistry and Biology. While there I would help my fellow students understand harder subjects such as physics or genetics. My classmates would often ask me for help and I was more than happy to do so. I have experience teaching younger students as well. During my sophomore and junior year, I was a teacher's assistant and taught middle school-aged children math. I gave presentations on my study abroad trip to Peru to students attending college, high school, middle school, and elementary school. I would adjust my presentation to match my audience's ages by recalling what I was learning at their age and adjusting the language to be age suitable for the audience. I would like to continue my education to get a Master's degree in Genetic Counseling in order to become a licensed genetic counselor. Genetic counseling began in 1979, making it a relatively new field in medicine. I'm interested in being a pioneer in science and this would be a fantastic way to do so. I like to tell people I'm a better Biologist than Chemist. My interest in biology was started when I was a young kid and had a major interest in macrofauna but as I got older I realized I wanted to study more complicated subjects. I would say the following are my strongest areas of knowledge at the college level: macro and microbiology, genetics, and biochemistry. I also have experience with teaching people college-level introductory physics and trigonometry. These are the highest level of education I have either taught or feel comfortable teaching. I am willing to offer advice and any possible help I might be able to give in any of the other subjects I have taken. I have taken both the ACT and the GRE. I studied for the GRE and can help with preparing for the GRE. My favorite subject to tutor is genetics. When I took my genetics class, I was surprised by how easily I understood and recalled things. Students came to me to help them understand the subject. I enjoyed helping them because it showed me what I knew and what I needed to work on. It was also fun to figure out ways to help students understand the material the way I understood it. I encourage students to be as hands-on with their subjects as possible. When learning Spanish verbs I made clay figures acting out the verbs. When I learned the Krebs cycle, I created a little puzzle to help me memorize where the different organelles and proteins went. To learn mitosis and meiosis in Genetics we had to act out a dance to show how the chromosomes separated during both. In my experience, I think teachers should strive to make making learning as fun as possible to help students focus and stay interested in important subjects, although I'm not against most traditional teaching methods and I strongly encourage students to take as many notes as possible. Outside of academics, I enjoy the outdoors. I like to go on hikes and long walks. I did crew in high school and would like to get back on a team if the possibility ever arose.

Hi everyone! My name is Aisha, and I'm really excited to be your tutor. I graduated from the University of Washington with a Bachelor's degree in Interdisciplinary Studies, and I have several years of experience working with students. I love helping kids learn in a way that feels simple, supportive, and fun. I'm here to help you build confidence in subjects like reading, writing, math, science, and more. My goal is to create a positive space where you feel comfortable asking questions, making mistakes, and growing at your own pace. Every student learns differently, and I'm here to help you figure out what works best for you.

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 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.

I'm Solange - a recent graduate from Harvard where I studied Sociology & Women's Studies. I've been tutoring for eight years now, and have worked with a wide range of ages and in a wide range of subjects. Some of my specialties are college prep/test taking II worked in the admissions office on campus); social sciences; and literature/writing.

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 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 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.
