...regard for teaching. While a student at Hamilton College, I was selected by professor recommendation to work as a tutor at the Quantitative Literacy Center, a job I held for three years. At Hamilton I practiced the ability to listen to my tutee, and then to assist my tutee in breaking down complex logical problems into simpler, manageable parts. A teacher must first and foremost have mastery of the subject material. A tutor must both...

Teaching is my passion. When I am not tutoring for Varsity Tutors, I work in medical research. I love the idea of helping patients feel better and especially kids. If I had to say something about my outlook, it is that I am thankful for what I do, privileged to be part of so many lives, and hopeful that my skills will make a difference.

...often in reading and math, as well as in the MCAT subjects. I focus my tutoring around finding each students desired method of learning/problem solving and trying to apply that to the problems at hand. I have been tutoring or TAing since high school and hope to continue reducing stress and finding the best ways to learn for students of all ages. ABOUT ME: I graduated from Brown University with a Sc.B in Biomedical Engineering...

I have always loved math and chemistry in school and found joy in helping my classmates understand the material. Now, as a tutor I have a lot of fun helping students with these subjects because they too develop their own spark for them!

I am an environmental science and engineering student in my Senior year of college. I love tutoring students and helping them perform their best on standardized tests and in school, and pride myself on being available after tutoring sessions to answer any questions they might have.

...the material on a more personal level.

...financial services industry, but I studied several other concentrations while at Simmons. I studied abroad in Japan, after several years of studying Japanese language and history.

I enjoy helping students pass their least favorite courses, and discover that statistics and financial mathematics...

...the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. While I was there, I tutored middle school-, high school-, and college-aged students in everything from Algebra I through Differential Equations. The main thing I love about tutoring and teaching mathematics is providing students with a foundation to discover the various principles on their own (rather than rote memorization of "if you see this, do that") and them realizing the joy and fun in that discovery.

I hosted lectures every week in a variety of...

As a professional tutor, I really enjoy the work I do. To me, a crucial part of life success is helping others, so I am dedicated to my work. Sometimes, when somebody shows us something we can't see for ourselves, we become capable of things we never thought we could do. ... Once you've learned something, it is never forgotten. It just needs to be recalled.... Assess the problem, set short and long-term goals, establish plans...

I worked with students both in class and one-on-one. My teaching style depends on individual student needs and background. If...

...the confidence to push yourself further and to work harder. The one you would want to see one more time so you can tell them what a difference they made. What was their name? For me his name was Mr. Walker, and I know that I would not be where I am today is it was not for him. I did not get into this profession to be a teacher. I was called to this...
