I currently teach 5th grade ELA and Social studies but have experience with kids of all ages. I am passionate about helping students meet their full potential.

Hi, I'm Nick! I am a recent graduate of Loyola University-Chicago with a Master's degree in History. In addition to history, I am also very passionate about reading and writing. It is my goal to provide the highest possible quality tutoring in these subjects, and to provide students with a safe and fun environment in which to learn not just these subjects, but also the values of equity, diversity, and inclusivity.
I am dedicated and student focused tutor passionate about helping learners from kindergarten through college build confidence and achieve their academic goals. I earned my bachelor's degree in Business Administration from West Virginia University and hold an associate degree in Accounting, which strengthened my analytical thinking, organization, and problem solving abilities. My professional strengths include clear communication, patience, adaptability, and the ability to break complex concepts into easy to understand steps. I tailor each session to match a student's learning style ensuring lessons are engaging, supportive, and results driven. My goal is to create a positive learning environment where students feel encouraged, stay motivated, and develop the skills they need for long term, academic success.
I enjoy helping students grow their knowledge and learning capabilities. My teaching philosophy involves creating a welcoming and safe learning environment for students, making sessions interactive and providing an opportunity for students to take control of their learning.
I am a recent graduate of West Virginia University earning my PhD. in chemical engineering. My research included using polymer with complex functional groups to create complex bio-medical composite materials by directing the self-assembly process of inorganic nanoparticles. I have tutored privately for both clients and friends in the fields of Math, Chemistry and Physics since high school. I offer a fresh take on the demands on students today being a recent graduate. I believe in understanding the core concepts of math and science problems in order for students to be able to solve a variety of problems on the subject.
I am a 2006 college graduate with a BA in English from Bethany College in Bethany, WV, and a 2012 masters graduate with an MA in Communication Studies from WVU. In 2006, I completed a certificate in publishing from the Denver Publishing Institute, with a heavy focus on editing and proofreading. Since my college years, I have taught developmental English/writing skills for college students, as well as public speaking, interpersonal communication, and study and organizational skills courses. While working at a community college, I conducted many workshops focused on student success, from time management to stress management, from study skills to test taking strategies and more. I have also worked as a legal proofreader and document processor for international law firms.My primary area for tutoring focuses on student writing, which could be for any subject since the basics of good writing and the components of essays cross departmental boundaries. Whether a student is writing a paper for English in response to a prompt or reading assignment or preparing a research paper for a psychology class, I can assist students in developing and supporting ideas and writing out those ideas in a clearly structured essay. In addition to writing assistance, I can assist students with using Microsoft Office, including Word, PowerPoint, Excel, and Outlook, as well as beginner level MS Project.My tutoring and teaching strategy primarily involves coaching students with questions that will help them develop ideas for writing and problem solve issues in their own writing. My goal is to guide students through the learning processes, making them the advocates of their own learning. When working with students on reviewing drafts of papers, I take an "umbrella" approach, assessing and providing feedback on "big picture" concepts like idea development and cohesiveness in writing and directing students to "small picture" concepts like proper grammar, mechanics, and spelling.I wish to tutor because I believe that education contributes to the greater good of society. In order to help students advance in their educational and career goals, as well as to help them become thoughtful, informed members of society, tutoring can provide students the guidance and support they need. I value the ability to coach students to promote their own learning and succeed in the academic environment.Outside of academia and tutoring, I am an avid reader--from science fiction to fantasy to non-fiction to literary fiction. My husband and I are also advocates of good and entertaining television, including Dr. Who, Star Trek, Marvel's Agents of Shield, sitcoms like Modern Family and The Goldbergs, and many more. I am a proponent of gardening and enjoyed the chance to attempt my own vegetable garden for the last two summers. Additionally, I support being a responsible citizen as an informed, registered voter and protector of the environment, using whatever green methods I can (recycling, driving fuel efficient vehicles, and using recycled products). I have also participated in worthy causes like Relay for Life and "Pie in the Face" activities for St. Baldricks. After discovering I had a gluten intolerance, I also became a proponent of healthy, natural eating and living a well-rounded, healthy lifestyle.
As a licensed occupational therapist who passed the NBCOT exam on my first attempt in 2020, I bring both personal insight and professional expertise to my tutoring. I specialize in helping aspiring Certified Occupational Therapy Assistants (COTAs) and Occupational Therapists (OTs) prepare for the NBCOT exam with confidence and clarity. My tutoring approach focuses on test-taking strategies, critical reasoning, and clinical application, tailored to each student's learning style and needs. I support students with targeted content review across major domains such as pediatrics, physical disabilities, mental health, and gerontology, while also emphasizing practical strategies for managing test anxiety and approaching tricky exam questions. Since becoming certified, I have worked full-time as a remote, school-based occupational therapist, serving K12 students through telehealth. This role has strengthened my ability to deliver clear, effective instruction across virtual platforms, and has kept me closely connected to current best practices in the field. My work has primarily focused on supporting students from preschool through high school with diverse learning and developmental needs, including ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder, learning disabilities, and emotional/behavioral challenges. I have extensive experience in areas such as sustained attention, direction-following, executive functioning, and fine motor skills, including handwriting instruction using the Handwriting Without Tears curriculum. My tutoring sessions are interactive, supportive, and rooted in real-world experience. I aim not only to help students pass the NBCOT exam but to help them feel prepared and empowered as future clinicians, as well as other students who need additional assistance with schoolwork and studying/daily life skills. In my free time, I enjoy reading, cooking, yoga, and running.
I am currently a 2nd year Law Student at Duquesne University. I obtained my Bachelor's Degree in History from West Virginia University. I am currently a graduate teaching assistant and I teach two history courses; Ancient Western Civilization and American History: Pre-Civil War. As such I feel very confident tutoring any sort of history course as my own experiences and notes should match closely with your course requirements. I also received very high academic marks on both my LSAT (law school admission test) and SAT's. In addition, I took these 2 exams fairly recently so I am familiar with any new changes or adaptations which may have been made. I stated previously I currently teach two separate courses and teaching truly is my passion. I feel that I am able to build a relationship with my students which allows me to evaluate their needs and adapt my teaching accordingly to ensure their success.
I am a graduate of West Virginia University where I received my Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering. Also, currently completing a master's degree in mechanical engineering at the University of Alabama. I have worked with tutoring other students in various engineering subjects, focusing mostly on mathematics subjects ranging from pre-calculus and algebra to differential equations. I also worked as a teaching assistant teaching Thermodynamics and Fluid Dynamics. I also strive to help students understand the material the best that they can. Offering tips and tricks to tackle various types of problems or to stay organized to make problems easier. In my spare time I enjoy hiking, metal work, cooking and hanging out with my pet rabbit.
In 2017 I completed my degrees in German and Journalism and moved on to study a Masters degree TESOL while teaching German courses at West Virginia University. During that time I wrote substantial research into language learning and utilization and won the prestigious award as Eberly College Outstanding Graduate Teaching Assistant for the World Languages, Literatures, and Linguistics Department 2018-2019. Thereafter, I spent the summer teaching English to children in Italy and working as an adjunct German instructor for the Georgia Institute of Technology. While I enjoy learning new languages, I enjoy teaching them just as much. It is important to me that students have fun while learning and develop a sense of personal confidence with material that they can carry out of the classroom. While I specialize in German language, history, and literature, I am happy to assist with any of the other subjects I am approved to help you with! English is another subject I'm passionate about and can help with writing, speaking, grammar, reading and listening comprehension.
I am currently a neuroscience and molecular medicine major at West Virginia University. I have a strong passion with not just STEM classes, but also creative writing. I have been working with kids to develop many important skills for four years now. I currently have an associate's degree and am working on my bachelor's degree.
I received my Bachelor of Science in Communication Sciences and Disorders from West Virginia University. I have experience with a broad range of children - ages 1 to 13 years old, specifically children that have disabilities, need academic support, and behavior support. While I can tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about Functional Communication Skills. American Sign Language, Executive Functioning Skills, Elementary Math, Elementary Science, and Elementary English. In my experience, students learn in many different ways. I like to observe my student's learning needs, and find ways to teach each student that will benefit them the most. In my experience this helps boost their confidence, and really seems to make learning more fun for them.
I graduated with my Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering from WVU. I have a strong background in Math and Chemistry. I graduated with a B.S. in Chemical Engineering from the University of Pittsburgh. I've tutored for a couple of years in high school and college Math and Chemistry courses. I enjoy helping students understand or explain things in ways that they will understand a topic that is difficult for them. I promote out-of-the-box thinking and I hope that I will be able to help address any questions you have.
As an English Language Arts teacher of 18 years, I have learned that students need to feel powerful in order to be successful. Confidence is everything. It is my duty to equip students with resources and techniques that will enable them to become life-long learners and productive citizens.Several of my students were not on level with reading, comprehension, and writing, and so I had to be creative in how I presented information and assessed them. At the same time, many of my students were in advanced classes who needed to be challenged and prepared as they relied on ACT/SAT scores and scholarships for college. It became second nature to differentiate my lessons and teaching in order to accommodate all of my different learners. Some of my successful methods come from my own experiences of being an at-risk student. I shared the steps I took in order to overcome odds and how to set and meet goals. I tutored during evenings and Saturdays. I encouraged students to come in for help during my lunch and planning periods and permitted them to sit in my classes during their study halls, free periods, etc.When students' needs are met, they feel empowered to accept opportunities and ultimately transform their dreams into reality. Every student deserves the right to be heard and taken seriously regardless of his weaknesses or needs. I am excited to help your child reach his educational goals and become more motivated.
I help students build confidence by breaking complex ideas into clear, manageable steps. With an extensive background in corporate communications, authentic storytelling, and creative writing, I meet learners where they are and support them with patience, structure, and encouragement. I love helping students find their voice, strengthen their skills, and realize they're more capable than they think.
I believe science should be made accessible AND understandable by all! Many struggle to grasp the more complex ideas their science classes present the first time through, and often there just isn't time in the classroom to slow it down when necessary to meet the extra needs of a few while the rest move onward. This can have a snowballing effect, worsening and worsening over time, and I believe the trick to breaking out of the trap is some straight-forward, straight-language tutoring!
I have been working with students (high school and college levels) for the past sixteen years. I have a Doctorate in Physical Chemistry from West Virginia University.I enjoy working one-on-one with students.

I have taught 1st grade for 4 years and believe it is the "reading grade." I know how important it is for a child to be reading on level when they leave 1st grade and how it will effect them throughout their academic life. This year I am teaching kindergarden. I am a very patient teacher. I have a great love for teaching reading and phonics. Although, I am familiar with all elementary school state standards as a public school teacher, and would be comfortable teaching all subjects. My greatest ability and passion is teaching reading.
I received a Bachelor of Arts from Baylor University, majoring in Psychology and minoring in both, Chemistry and Biology. I obtained my Ph.D. from West Virginia University in Biomedical Sciences, with an emphasis in Exercise Physiology. I researched heart function in Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes, which was super cool. I am currently debating whether to go back to school and get my MBA for future endeavors and ideas that I have brewing in my head.I have worked extensively with all levels of students. As a graduate student at WVU, I worked with Elementary, Middle, and High School students teaching them STEM topics and involving myself volunteer opportunities in STEM outreach and education. I started teaching in Higher Education working with all collegiate and professional school students, mostly within the Exercise Science Department right after graduate school. In 2018, I began AxoSchools, a collaborative homeschool experience tailored to what each student needs. I am currently the Director of Education, Curriculum Development, and Instruction. I work daily to write curriculum encompassing all subjects that are engaging for the students and based on topics they love to learn about. During COVID, I transitioned us all quickly to an online learning platform, allowing us to carry out our daily learning together, as well as helped public school teachers in their virtual classrooms. Through AxoSchools, I have worked with Elementary, Middle, and High School students teaching them all subjects!My favorite subject to tutor is science because it is always so exciting and you get to learn how things work and why things happen the way they do in the body, in the world, and beyond!!

After completing my degree, I worked at West Virginia University for three years, supporting students and faculty with engineering research. During that time, I helped students navigate complex topics, refine their analytical skills, and connect theory to real applications. For the remainder of my career, I've worked as a bridge designer, contributing to projects ranging from routine structures to highly complex systems. That hands on experience gives me a practical perspective that I bring into tutoring. Whether you are tackling Statics, Mechanics of Materials, Structural Analysis, or preparing for the FE exam, I focus on making the material understandable and relevant.
As a future special education teacher and current substitute teacher, I am excited to become a tutor with Varsity Tutors. I am currently enrolled in the MEd + Licensure special education program at the University of Illinois at Chicago, and am set to begin my studies in August of 2017.My background includes working as a substitute teacher during the 2016-2017 school year for multiple districts in Columbus, OH.

Hello future students!You’re probably curious about whether we would work well together and whether I know my stuff. I hold a BA in Letters from the University of Oklahoma, which includes English, Classical languages, History, and Philosophy. I’m a certified English teacher, an Oklahoma Writing Project teacher-consultant, and a National Writing Project Fellow, and I have taught writing workshops for teachers and students across the state.My favorite thing to teach is creative writing. I am an award-winning writer with 14 professionally-published stories, and I’m currently working on my third novel. I love to read epic fantasy novels like Lord of the Rings, but I also love any writing that’s well-crafted or makes you think, like Ray Bradbury’s Fahrenheit 451 or Harper Lee’s To Kill a Mockingbird.I teach because I fell in love with that “aha” moment when a concept clicks and you can see on someone’s face that they “get it.” I was raised by teachers, and I’ve always believed that anyone can succeed academically, no matter what their challenges, if they have the motivation to keep working and a skilled mentor who believes in their potential. My students are not just successful; they exceed their expectations because I help them see and build on their strengths.One of my favorite teaching stories is about a young man who “hated” poetry. About a week after I read one of his poems in class and talked about all the things he was doing right, he brought me a notebook with poems he had written on his own; he had become a poet.I’ve been teaching for 16 years. I started out working as a tutor in the college writing center at the University of Oklahoma for 4 years, helping students understand assignments, revise essays, write resumes, and perfect research papers. During and after college, I volunteered teaching English as a Second Language to international students at OSU, OU, and Fairmont State University, and I also taught English overseas in Riga, Latvia and Buenos Aires, Argentina for two summers. I’ve taught Pre-AP and on-level World Literature for 6 years at Moore High School, where I helped students with grammar, literary analysis, creative writing, and reading comprehension. I taught an intersession literary analysis class for the University of Oklahoma for three semesters. Most recently, I’ve tutored individual high school, middle school, and elementary students who needed extra support in reading, writing essays, or coaching to pass a big exam.In my spare time, I like to try new things, like kayaking, learning tai chi, listening to indie bands, wandering through art galleries, or making food from other countries.I look forward to meeting you!

Do you have hard time with a certain subject? Do you know which methods work for your specific learning style? As someone with learning challenges as a child, I know how important it is to develop personal strategies and heuristics that will enable you to learn the most efficiently. I think my personal difficulties with learning is what give me the motivation to help others. Sometimes, somebody's full potential is not showing at their highest potential. I would love to help you find your full potential. I am fully capable at teaching any math or sciences at the high school level and many at the college level ( i.e biological sciences, physiology, anatomy, physical and organic chemistry), etc.... I have experience tutoring both at the high school and college level. Personally, I am in the middle of applying to medical school and recently finished taking the MCAT. I would absolutely love helping anybody in this area as well. As referenced above, I am more than confident that I will be able to help you get to your goal score. Its all about the learning style and strategy that works for YOU. I look forward to working with you very shortly to help you achieve the goal that YOU have.
I have always loved to travel which I guess is why I studied languages in the first place. When I took on French at West Virginia University it was something I simply enjoyed. After I finished my music studies I moved to Lyon, France where I was able to focus on independent music research. I fell in love with the French culture through performances, business meetings, collaborations, and time with friends. I loved it so much that I stayed there for two years. Now I am back in the States helping students with their French and helping fellow travelers like myself learn the language so that they may have an easier and more meaningful experience. As a teacher I am calm and laid back and French is often taught best that way. Most of my students not only learn what they need for coursework, they learn cultural aspects and speaking as well. I am a firm believer in teaching culture with the language because it is often difficult to learn and understand the language otherwise.I love cooking, traveling, and trying new restaurants. I am also cheerful and love to laugh. So I watch movies, comedies and comedians.
I come from a long line of teachers. My father, sister, grandfather, aunts, uncles, nephews and nieces all chose teaching as their life's work.Even at a very early age it was becoming apparent that teaching would become a large part of my future. I remember sitting in on one of my father's classes. I was so proud of my dad as I watched him interact with his students. It was obvious the class loved him as they hung onto every word from his mouth. I hoped and dreamed to be just like him one day.At 15 it became more clear that the teaching profession would become an integral part of my future. I was a gymnast and inevitably I would gravitate over to one of my teammates who was struggling with a new trick. I would spend my practice time teaching my teammate how to get that new trick and it occurred time and time again. I actually got as excited as my teammate was when they got that new skill.That excitement just continued to grow as I was offered a free masters degree program (plus compensation) at West Virginia University when I agreed to assistant coach their women's gymnastics team and teach classes. The team had never made it to regionals before I got there. By my second year not only did the team make it to regionals but WON regionals then went on to Nationals and ended up being the third best team in the U.S.A.There were several more success stories during my two decades of teaching/coaching and counseling. I opened my own private gyms and developed numerous national and international level athletes and champions.Teaching continues to make me happy and proud of what I've accomplished and the 100's of student's lives that I've touched.Looking back, sitting in my dad's class as a 12 year old helped me make one of the most important and fulfilling decisions of my life. becoming a teacher.
I am a chemistry teacher with 19 years of experience, specializing in AP Chemistry instruction with 16 years of experience. I enjoy helping students who are striving to succeed in the world of Chemistry to open pathways to many collegiate and career opportunities.
I believe that when it comes to learning, why is just as important as what and how.My goal as a tutor is not only to help you learn how something works, or what the facts are, but why it is important to know this information. Once a principle is understood, it can be repeated! This includes lessons like standardized testing, and how to use the information on the page to your utmost advantage!I love history, English, theater and public speaking. I specialize in class speeches of all types. I've worked with students of all age groups, from elementary to college level material. Get in touch, and let's see what I can do for you!

I'm currently a graduate student at Boston University getting my master's in Mathematics Secondary Education. I did my undergrad at West Virginia University, where I majored in History and minored in German and Math.I've had a passion for education since i graduated high school. During my gap semester, I worked alongside my high school statistics teacher in his math classrooms and fell in love! From there I tutored throughout college with a variety of organizations, working with at-risk high school students, university athletes, and students with disabilities.I enjoy tutoring math courses the most. I struggled with math in high school and got lots of help. Once I did, my confidence and interest grew to the point I studied it in college. So it's really rewarding for me to help others grow in the subject as well. However, I also enjoy tutoring history, German, and test prep as well.I believe in interactive education and hands-on experience, lots of doing and making. I also believe conversation reflects a deeper level of understanding of the material, so you can expect to be engaged in my sessions either by making or speaking.I look forward to working with you and getting to know you!
I have been working professionally in education for almost six years now. I have been described as a compassionate, reliable, effective, and fair teacher. I have worked in regular education and special education settings. A fun fact, I am also fluent in American Sign Language (ASL) and love to incorporate that into my teaching style. I love the art of teaching and meeting new students. My favorite thing about teaching is interacting with children and teaching them new skills to help them be successful in all aspects of what they do.
I am a freelance writer specializing in content writing, editing, and proofreading. I have degrees in English, Russian, and Russian Literature with minors in French and History.
