I recently graduated from Yale University with a degree in Psychology but with intentions of one day going to medical school. I am currently doing research at the Hospital for Special Surgeries to gain valuable experience before heading off to medical school. While at Yale, I played soccer for 4 years and tutored other students in organic chemistry. I am very committed to helping my students improve and enjoy working in the sciences most specifically those on the MCAT - chemistry, organic chemistry, physics and biology.

I am student who currently attends Yale University, with plans to major in/receive a degree in Molecular Biochemistry and Biophysics. My previous tutoring experience includes math tutoring for elementary school students, AP and standardized test prep for high school students, and tutoring students ages 3-18 at Kumon Learning Center. I tutor in all subjects, but prefer math and German. My tutoring style is organized and balanced, meaning I am both laid back in my teaching, but also very diligent about helping a student achieve his or her goals. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy baking a lot; I also enjoy traveling to different countries and trying exotic foods. As the oldest of six, I am very family-oriented and enjoy spending time messing around with my sisters and often breaking out into song.

Hi! My name is Andrew, and I am a sophomore at Yale University studying Mechanical Engineering, and I live in Detroit, Michigan. I specialize in physics and math, especially different levels of calculus.When I'm not working, I enjoy watching football, baseball, listening to music, and playing video games. I look forward to working with you!

Do you dream of rocketing into a great law school and receiving an elite JD diploma? I can tutor you to reach the LSAT score you'll need. I received a 173 on my LSAT 99th percentile and I have a background in film, philosophy and politics. My BA is from Yale and I my MFA is from Brooklyn College.Studying for the LSAT means using intense focus to chew through this difficult test. But you need certain tools to even get a purchase. With my powerhouse analytic mind I can teach you them and with my artists sensitivity I can hold space for the stresses of the journey. Your scores in the reading comprehension, logical reasoning and games sections will rise and doors at powerful law schools will open to you.

I spent most of my professional career as a newspaper reporter and editor in Alaska. I have a BA from Yale and master's degrees in linguistics and history. I have tutored with more than 600 online students, mostly for advanced English, and would like to help people in other subjects including history, journalism and music. I believe the best way to teach is to use patience and humor while maintaining high standards for factual knowledge and intellectual integrity.

Hello! My name is Alice Zhao, and I'm a rising senior at Yale University. My two main passions in life are biology and English--people might see them as completely opposite subjects, but I think they're just two sides of the same coin! As a tutor, I believe that flexibility and personalization are key. Above all, my goal is to help people not just do well in their assignments but also truly understand the material. I look forward to working with you!

I graduated from Yale University in May 2017 majoring in political science with a concentration in political economy. I am currently working toward my CPA and will pursue an MBA to foster and grow my career in financial consulting.I have several years of experience tutoring students from 6th grade to high school seniors in various settings: classroom, groups, and one-on-one. I tutor subjects including elementary and middle school Math, English, Spanish; high school SAT II Subject Tests, APs, and the SAT for topics including Spanish, World History, U.S. History, European History, Math (various levels from Algebra, Geometry, Calculus), and others.As a recent college graduate entering the workforce, I have learned the value of a strong educational foundation. I strive to inspire my students to learn not only during our tutoring sessions or in the classroom, but also outside their comfort zone on subjects that may prove challenging. I have learned the value of hard work and dedication in my studies and hope to pass on these values to the students I tutor.Outside of academia, I play club soccer, snowboard, and backpack across the country. I enjoy outdoor activities and fitness outside of work. I work well with others and enjoy the process of teaching students and enriching their educational experience.

Nailah graduated from Yale University with a degree in American Studies and Theater Studies. She grew up in Maryland in the DC Metro Area for most of her life, with a brief 3-year stint in Tuscaloosa, AL. Nailah has always loved working with students and teaching them the skills they need to succeed. Through the Peace by PEACE program, she taught weekly non-violent conflict resolution classes to sixth graders at John Martinez Middle School. As the Education intern at the global non-profit Youth Service America, she created educational resources designed to teach youth how to create their own service projects and led a workshop on these tools for visiting international students. Through Yale's Reach Out Program, Nailah traveled to Jamaica with a group of fellow students to lead community-center workshops for teenagers on health, domestic abuse, economic development and leadership skills. Nailah knows how important education has been in her life, in not only providing her with opportunities to explore the world and think deeply, but also by providing her life-long mentors. Some of the educators that first inspired her were from a performing arts camp called Acting Manitou that she attended for four summers as a camper. She later returned to continue empowering the next generation of campers as a camp counselor. Nailah is also an aspiring director and storyteller, and works part time at a start-up called Harry's.

I am a current student attending graduate school at Columbia University. I graduated from Yale University in 2011 and upon graduation, joined Teach for America, a non-profit organization whose mission is is to help close the current opportunity gap that exists in classrooms across the U.S. I taught 1st 2nd and 3rd grade for three years and while teaching, earned a Master's Degree in Education. In addition to being a classroom certified teacher, I have also tutored older students in SAT test preparation, as well as classroom content such as calculus and physics. I tutor a wide range of subjects, ranging from elementary education to high school Mathematics, science and Spanish. I enjoy teaching and my work is about my students, who have the potential to achieve at the highest levels, and their parents, who want the best for them. Outside of teaching, I enjoy reading, watching/playing sports (especially basketball, which I played in college!), skiing, and knitting.

I started tutoring in high school by helping out my friends with physics and math. I really enjoyed it, partly because I wanted to help them succeed , and partly because by tutoring, I developed a better understanding of the topics I was teaching. In College, I am still involved in peer tutoring among my friends and classmates.Outside of classes, I spend a lot of time singing in an a cappella group, working in a chemical engineering lab, and playing soccer.

I thrive in tutoring humanities - English literature, Latin, art history, music (keyboard, music theory and music history), philosophy and history. I am liberal arts trained and excel at connecting concepts across academic disciplines.

Hi. My name is Tom. I'm a professional SAT and ACT tutor with a Bachelor's and Master's degree from Yale University and extensive experience (10+ years) tutoring students for the SAT and ACT exams. I got a 1590 on my SAT. That score was on the first try so I didn't take the ACT at the time but I consistently score 35-36 on ACT practice tests. I am equally comfortable teaching the English and Math sections of the exams, including use of the Desmos calculator, and my approach is 100% test focused. Over the past decade I've taught hundreds of High School students both one-on-one and in small groups with both private tutoring companies and independently and I'm happy to work full-time for Varsity Tutors now. I would love to help you improve your score and maximize your chances in the college application process.

I'm Annelisa, originally from Phoenix, Arizona. I recently graduated from Yale University, where I studied art and its interactions with political journalism and science. I'm happy to tutor on a wide range of subjects, especially writing, college application, and the SAT!

I am a dedicated educator with years of professional experience teaching students of various ages. I am deeply committed to my students' success and aim to create fun and engaging lessons.

I have always had a passion for teaching, and to me there's nothing better than the smile on a student's face when he or she finally masters a difficult concept. My specialty subject is mathematics. In high school, I finished AP Calculus BC by the end of my junior year, and during my senior year I went on to take college-level math in a dual-enrollment program with Carnegie Mellon University. I just finished my freshman year at Yale, during which I took an accelerated course on Vector Calculus and Linear Algebra. In addition to mathematics, I am also studying music at Yale, where I have taken rigorous courses in music theory, musicianship, and piano performance. I would be able to tutor in those subjects as well. I currently have a 4.0 GPA at Yale.As a high school student, I regularly tutored elementary school students, and I was at the helm of a Homework Helper organization that sent about 260 high school students to provide free tutoring services at local elementary and middle schools. Students find me helpful as a tutor not only because I have abundant expertise in the areas I teach, but also because I am patient and friendly. I am able to put students at ease so that they gain the confidence necessary to tackle difficult subjects.

Hi! I'm a recent Yale grad tutoring in English language, literature, and public speaking for middle school and high school. I'm also available to tutor in Spanish and Russian languages. I also completed the IB program in high school so I am happy to advise on the EE, CAS, IA, and exam process for that.

I didn't get into Yale because I'm naturally smart. I'm not that guy that can just look at a problem on the board and just figure it out in seconds. I hate asking that guy for help because he doesn't know how to explain somethinghe just gets it right away. He's never sat down and broken it down. I never was that guy and I will never be that guy.I will always be that guy that stays after class to asks questions because I didn't get it right away. I will always be that guy that is in office hours from start to end until I get it right. My whole life I have always been the guy on the other side of the table. I am the guy who always gets tutored, and that is why I make a great tutor. I know how people want to be helped, I've been there. I love tutoring people in anything: college essays, algebra, linear algebra, calculusanything I have ever loved to do. Tutoring has taught me empathy and patience. Two vital components that a great tutor has. I am hard working and I love seeing others succeed.I will able to tutor for most of this summer, so about from the end of May to mid-August. I am on break and would love to tutor. I will be able to tutor for about 20 hours a weekor more, depending on what comes up this summerpreferably during the day but if evenings are prioritized then I can work evenings as well.

I am an experienced tutor with a focus on coaching people for standardized tests. I graduated from Yale magna cum laude with a degree in philosophy and I've been in Chicago for two years working with the Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights on voting and democracy issues. I scored well on my standardized tests (LSAT, ACT, AP Tests-5 on eleven different tests) and like helping other people do the same. Those tests are all beatable, and I think they can even be kind of fun once you start to feel yourself mastering them. Plus, it's rewarding to see my students' scores improve, which is almost guaranteed with the right kind of practice.

Originally from Southern California, I graduated this May from Yale University where I completed a double major in French and the History of Art. While at Yale, I was a student curator at the Yale University Art Gallery and president of Yaledancers. I also worked as an Editorial Assistant at the Gallery and was active in numerous other dance groups on campus. I studied abroad in Paris during the fall of my junior year where I attended a French university and worked at a contemporary art gallery. Most recently, I was a finalist for the UK Fulbright scholarship, and I am now pursuing a career in Choreography and Dance Writing. In high school, I was named a National Merit Scholar and received a bilingual International Baccalaureate diploma in French. I have extensive tutoring experience in a variety of subjects, and I can't wait to help your son or daughter in their studies!

I have more than 13 years of tutoring experience with middle and high-school aged students, focusing on reading comprehension and writing.I specialize in SAT Verbal and Writing preparation, as well as in college essay writing. I also teach Korean, as it is my second native language.My teaching approach is tailored to each student's particular needs and learning style.I am patient, relaxed, keenly observant, and articulate - I will find a way to put things so that you will really "get it" from your perspective!

I am a graduate of the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). I received my Bachelor of Arts in Asian American Studies with a pre-med track. I am currently a grad student at the Yale School of Public Health.Throughout my undergraduate career, I have instructed SAT/ACT classes for low-income students in the Los Angeles area.I truly believe that education is the gateway to success. It is my teaching philosophy to ensure that each student has individualized attention. I work to enhance a student's strengths and work on their weaknesses.Outside of school, I enjoy reading, travel, weightlifting, hiking, yoga, writing, and more,

I am a graduate of Yale University. I received my Bachelor of Engineering Science in Chemical Engineering. Since graduation, I earned a certification to teach English as a Second Language, and traveled to Beijing, China, where I taught at both primary and high school levels (including several math and Physics high school courses). While I tutor a variety of subjects, I have always had a particular passion for math and Chemistry. In high school, I led the Ohio ARML Math team, and earned a gold medal in the State Science Olympiad tournament for the Chemistry Lab event. I bring the experience I gained competing in and writing for a variety of academic competitions to my students when I teach or tutor them, and I love the excitement of pushing students to reach and expand their potential, as well as the fun that comes from a student seeing a question a new way and understanding it on a different level. I know that education and brain-training are necessary for not just success, but fulfillment, in life. In my spare time, I enjoy crossword puzzles, running, bouldering, trivia, and watching a variety of sports (both American and international).

I love learning about my students' hobbies and interests, and strive to connect these with the material I tutor them on.

I find a lot of satisfaction in helping students get through the toughest challenges of the essay writing, test prep, and college admissions processes. Let's work together and get it done.

I am a current sophomore at Yale University, studying Environmental Engineering and Global Affairs. I spent four years tutoring K-12 students in reading and math, and I believe in the importance of appreciating the process of learning and mastering concepts.

I am a Georgia native who recently relocated to Colorado. Previously I lived in New Haven, CT, where I worked with young adults who had just finished undergrad. I served as a mentor, helping each one make a decision about the future. I also worked with them on admissions essays and finding their voice.Writing is hard work. It is especially hard to be authentic and clear. It has been my greatest pleasure to watch my mentees work through the difficulty and come out with a piece of writing they are proud of. It is work I have loved and am excited to continue here in Colorado.I earned my Bachelor of Arts in 2007 from Piedmont College in Georgia, where I studied Philosophy and Religion. In 2010 I earned my Master of Arts in Religion from Yale University. My particular interest is the junction between literature and theology using the tools of textual criticism. In my studies I learned how important it is to be clear and concise in my writing.

I've taught 8th grade science at a high-performing middle school for the past five years. My greatest passion is making science accessible, especially when it can seem confusing and intimidating. I love activating students' natural curiosity and inquiry, and using that to build confidence in and mastery of a wide variety of academic topics.I graduated from Yale University with a double major in Environmental Studies and International Studies, and I love the way science and real-world issues can interact. Part of my interest in the environment comes from my love of being outdoors, and I am an avid rower and bicyclist. I also greatly enjoy growing vegetables and playing basketball.

I strive as a tutor to bring subject matter to life for students. I am well-trained in a plethora of Language Arts subjects, but they are much more fun when I can discuss them with others! My degree in English was one of the best decisions I ever made, and it is my goal to show students how useful and rewarding it is to read, write, and analyze the words of ourselves and of others. I have experience tutoring students from elementary school to the college and masters levels. I cannot wait to work with the students connected through Varsity Tutors!

I tutor SAT, PSAT, AP World, AP US History, AP Euro, French, Literature, English, Writing Skills/Essay Writing, Algebra I and II, Geometry, Calculus AB and BC, and AP Art History. I particularly love tutoring History and English/Literature, and helping with essay writing. I'm drawn to those topics myself, they are the things I am most passionate about, and therefore the things I love to teach and the subjects in which I love to share what knowledge I have. I believe enthusiasm goes a long way, and that some of my best teachers have been the ones who loved their subjects the most.My tutoring style is interactive. I take an approach that constantly asks my students to explain things to me, talk me through how to work through problems, and say things in their own words. I believe that this is the way in which a student's learning can be best assessed throughout lessons, and I also believe this method forces students to really and deeply understand the things that they are learning.I received my high school degree from Centennial High School in Frisco, Texas. I'm currently in the process of receiving my bachelors in Political Science from Yale University. I began tutoring my sophomore year of high school, when I tutored Geometry and Algebra as part of a volunteer program at my high school. My junior and senior year, I tutored in Algebra II. During the year, I operate as an informal tutor to my family and friends, coaching my little sister through speeches, AP World History, the PSAT, and English. I also spend a lot of time reading through college application essays and proofreading general application essays. In addition to my tutoring experience, I have taught workshops on health education for high school-age kids in inner-city schools in New Haven, and given tours to small children (elementary to middle school-age) at the Dallas Museum of Art as a Teen Docent.Outside of school, I love to write and to perform. I am spending the summer focusing on writing, specifically long-form personal essays and articles. In high school, I did Speech, Interp and Debate, and did a lot of competitive acting and preforming and speaking through that. In college, I have been given the privilege of combining those interests I am part of a sketch comedy troupe that allows me to combine my interests through writing and preforming my own sketches, as well as workshopping the sketches of other members of my troupe. Beyond that, I absolutely love podcasts: I've been obsessed with NPR's politics podcast lately, and (of course) This American Life, Radiolab, and Serial.

I love working with students. I find each student's interests and motivations in school very interesting. I have studied at Yale University, the University of Alabama at Birmingham, and Troy University. I have two master's degrees, one in Divinity and one in Applied Linguistics. My bachelor's degree is in English. Each of these places helped me learn more about English, linguistics, and the humanities. Because of my strong background in humanities, I have learned a lot about the dignity of each person. That is what motivates me to teach. Each person is worth an investment. Everyone can learn!I taught middle and high school students at an international school in Vienna, Austria. I also have experience working with adults in community center language courses.I also enjoy talking to people about their hobbies. Mine are baking, reading, gardening, and learning about animals.

My name is Brian and I am very much looking forward to meeting and working with you all. I am a Yale educated, experienced math teacher (18 years in the classroom) that will help your student understand, appreciate and even like their particular area of math. I have been privately tutoring one on one successfully for over 20 years and get great satisfaction from the success of my students.When not teaching, I am a sports junkie that also enjoys a good book or movie.Thank you and I am looking forward to working together!Brian

I am a Yale University Berkeley College graduate of the Yale Class of 2012 with an Intensive B.S. in Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology. Eager for tutoring opportunities, I welcome any of you who wishes to undergo SAT/PSAT or ACT Test Preparation that will get you the scores you need for admission to the college of your choice. As for my experience, I have tutoring experience in both one-to-one settings, going as far back as high school, and group/classroom settings, especially from my 4 years of tutoring with Yale MATHCOUNTS. As a likely future graduate student myself, it is my general goal in life to continue the tradition of passing forth knowledge. Not surprisingly, I have always considered tutoring and education among the most noble of professions where both parties, student and teacher, benefit and learn. What makes me an excellent tutor? Over the course of my life I have had the good fortune of cultivating a variety and number of skill sets, some of which are academic and social in nature. While I certainly consider academic prowess important for the success of any instructor, I would say the most important skill set I have developed is that of adaptability. If a tutor can adapt him/herself to the mode and manner of thinking of another, the tutor, as well as the tutor's audience, will have especially effective and enriching transactions.

I am a graduate of Yale University with a degree in biology and am currently working as a research associate at a cancer biology lab. I am an experienced STEM tutor for college and high school students and also tutor for standardized tests such as the MCAT and the SAT.

I am a graduate of Duke University (class of 2017), where I received my Bachelor of Arts in History and Religious Studies with a minor in Economics. I am also a graduate of Yale University (class of 2019), where I received my Master of Arts in Religious Studies with a focus on ancient history. Since graduation, I have worked in the computer software space and as a tutor for over 6 years (both in person and virtually). I have tutoring experience with all grade levels, including undergraduates, in subjects ranging from english and essay writing to ACT/SAT test prep. I love working with students of all ages and personalizing my teaching style to create the most positive and productive learning environment.

I am a senior at Yale University majoring in Humanities. That means I get to study a wide variety of subjects: history, english, philosophy, art history, political philosophy, and more! I've worked as a coach on a rock climbing team for 3 years, so I have a lot of experience working with kids and teens of all ages. Through my volunteer work at an ancient art museum, I also gained experience designing classes and presentations for adults. My passion is writing, so I'm most excited to tutor English and help with college applications; having recently gone through the college application process myself, I am confident I can help craft stellar applications. When I'm not studying or tutoring, I love to rock climb and generally do anything outside. I love hiking, wakeboarding, and kayaking, and can talk about the outdoors for hours!

I am currently a student at Yale University. I'm a prospective Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology major on the pre-med track. Throughout high school, I have tutored students in a vast variety of subjects through National Honors Society. I have also worked with ESL students through Spanish Honors Society. As a college student, I have taught various interactive science subjects to New Haven elementary students over zoom as part of the Demos organization. In addition to academic subjects, I have also privately tutored students in violin. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about Math and English. In my experience, helping students prepare for Standardized Tests and classroom subjects is the most rewarding. It's unforgettable to see a student's tangible progress, and to help them conquer their difficulties!!

I'm a junior at Yale University pursuing a double major in Linguistics and Theater. I have experience tutoring in a variety of subjects, but I'm particularly excited to help students with writing, critical reading, and SAT or ACT preparation. I had a strong support network of teachers and mentors throughout middle and high school, so I understand firsthand the importance of thoughtful, individualized educational enrichment. I seek to meet each student where they are in order to help them reach their greatest potential! When I'm not tutoring, you might find me performing improv comedy, playing saxophone, or trying to write the next great American musical.
