I have a degree from the University of Michigan in Judaic studies, although I switched to that field from electrical engineering and computer science.I've loved teaching for a long time, and my favorite part has always been personalizing lessons and teaching styles for individual students. Everybody is different, and everybody has their own best way to learn. I make it my mission to find that most effective method for all of my students.Aside from tutoring, I like playing music, competitive fighting game tournaments, and game design.

Hello,I am Abbey Sterner. I am a math major at Seton Hall University. I have a passion for math and want to help others. I think people struggle with math because it is not taught in an efficient manor and every one will learn in a different way. I found the way I learn and am able to adapt and help people find the way they best learn.

With a passion for learning, I have 4 years experience of Advanced Placement tests and tutoring, and 8 years experience general tutoring of all ages. I particularly enjoy English, History, and Science.I have six years of bilingual instruction experience, from preschool age to adults. I love tutoring English as a Second Language and Spanish language. I am currently completing my TESOL certification.As a tutor, I really work to understand each student's learning style and tailor instruction to their needs. I am looking for students who are self-motivated and willing to put forth the effort to learn. I strive to help students fall in love with learning as they improve in each subject!

I first became passionate about math when I was in 1st grade and would race my friends through addition problems. Eventually, I felt I had mastered addition and moved on to subtraction and multiplication until I had basically finished the 3rd grade math curriculum by the time I got there. Since then, I have loved and excelled in math. So much so that I decided to major in Math during college and will graduate with a BA in Math in May 2015. I have taken all high school mathematics, all of calculus, linear algebra, ordinary differential equations, modern analysis, group and field theory, and number theory as well as classes in logic.I have had some formal tutoring experience with students in high school and some of my fellow students in college, and I have tutored many informally throughout my education. I really like helping people understand math and fall in love with it like I did. Whenever I was studying math, there was always an "Aha!" moment when something makes sense and clicks. I really like seeing that moment in my students eyes especially when they realize how cool math can be.

I've been working with high school and college students professionally since 2004. I'm drawn to teaching students for two reasons. First, I enjoy seeing the reaction on their faces when they realize they're able to accomplish something they thought was impossible. Watching students succeed is a reward that never gets tiring.Second, I honestly enjoy working on the material personally. When I'm not teaching students how to solve math equations, I'll actually work on some in my free time. I have a collection of math puzzles, logic games, and crossword puzzles that I work on constantly. I never get tired of playing with numbers and words, and I like to bring that enthusiasm to my teaching.Outside of math and logic, I like to read. I love music -- playing and listening to it. And I always try to catch some good movies. Most of all, I enjoy spending time with my family, especially playing with my two kids.

My infinite love of learning has always made me a very passionate teacher. With over 10 years of teaching experience, I have helped thousands of students worldwide achieve their dreams and master their skills in many subjects. I got my first Bachelor of Arts in the English Language and Literatures, concentrating on teaching English as a second language. Then, I moved to the business field and got my Associate degree in Business Fundamentals, and almost a graduate with my second Bachelor of Science in Business Management. As a result, I have many certificates in the Business field and in teaching English as a second language. I also have extensive knowledge of accounting concepts, math, science, history, ESL, English, and Literatures. I can also teach reading, writing, pronunciation, study skills, and organization courses. Over the past years, I have taught students from all around the globe. I have always been able to adjust my teaching style based on the needs of each individual or group of students. I care about learning more about the students' background, culture, and learning style to relate to the way I teach my courses.

I am a recent graduate in the area of Game Design and Development, and wish to use my skills in Narrative Design to help inspire young writers. My specialty is writing, specifically creative writing. I am comfortable with tutoring grammar and reading comprehension as well. Students who are looking to improve writing and develop creativity in writing would be a great match with me.

My name is Alec Pappas. I am an incoming doctoral student at Florida State University looking to pursue a career path in teaching. I have experience tutoring students of all ages: from elementary school students, to collegiate athletes.I have always had a passion for helping others reach their full potential academically. Working for Varsity Tutors provides me the opportunity to share what I've learned with people across the country.I look forward to working with you toward academic excellence!

I am a teacher with 15 years of experience who is passionate about helping students learn. I have worked with students with a wide variety of learning styles and I enjoy figuring out what works best for every individual. I am patient and creative, and I enjoy using my skills and experience to help others be (and maybe more importantly, feel) successful. I received my degree in Middle Childhood Education from Xavier University in Cincinnati, Ohio and I earned my Master of Arts in Teaching through the Global Field Program at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio. Through the Global Field Program, I traveled to Belize, Costa Rica, Australia, and Hawaii on environmental education ecotours. I am grateful for these travel opportunities as well as the authentic, hands-on learning I received. My graduate program fueled my love of travel and I now have a life goal of visiting all of the US National Parks! I am well on my way, as I have already been to 23 and counting! When I am not traveling, I enjoy rock climbing, playing sand volleyball, rereading Harry Potter, re-watching Disney movies, and hanging out with my dog.I am available to tutor elementary and middle school students in math, science, social studies, English, and reading. I especially love tutoring math because there are so many different strategies you can use to solve math problems! My tutoring philosophy, like my teaching philosophy, is that everyone is capable of learning. All people have their strengths and areas where more growth is necessary, and sometimes it may take a student a bit more practice or a new strategy to become proficient at a skill, but everyone has the ability to learn and grow. I am always impressed by the students who know they need a bit more time or support to understand a concept and are willing to put in the extra work and effort in tutoring to meet their goals. I am happy to be part of that journey with them.

I had an interesting career as a broker and then worked in fund management. There, my interest for the academic world grew and I found a passion in learning. I began drifting more into the academic world and then combining my studies with my work life. I enjoy teaching, guide and monitoring people's progress.
