On Varsity Tutors, I tutor up to college level mathematics and physics, test prep (including AP courses, and SAT reading/writing). Explaining difficult math and science concepts in plain English is...

I have been a business professor and a business tutor for over 10 years. My aim is to discern the individual learning styles of my students and to work with each of them in a manner that addresses his/her individual style. My greatest joy in tutoring is seeing the sparkle in a student's eyes when he/she understands a concept and is able to explain and it back to me.

As an enthusiastic tutor with a Bachelor's degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Olin College, I have over two years of experience teaching college-level computer science.

I believe that understanding the "why" behind concepts is crucial, which is why I prioritize explaining underlying principles rather than rote memorization. My passion for teaching stems from my...

...teaching has always been a passion of mine, I especially love the opportunity that tutoring affords to work closely with students as true individuals, helping them develop confidence in their skills and become independent learners, while tailoring lessons specifically to their unique needs and interests.

...material to their experiences, enhancing understanding. Achieving this requires active facilitation, not just open discussion. Employing visual aids is one means to help students link information, recognize relationships, and build a lasting, analytical understanding, but it is far from the only means to do so. I work to design my approach to fit the student's needs and meet them where they are. My goal is not only to have my student learn a concept, but...

Learning can be both challenging and rewarding. And technology opens an amazing workd of potential. But that doesn't mean it should be painful, or difficult. If you get stuck or even just want a new perspective on development, lets work on some ideas and problems through it and lets have some fun doing it.

...in your head and struggle to put those ideas to paper, and it brings me a lot of joy to help a student's voice shine through their writing in the best way it can. I have been editing essays for the past 10 years (yes, since I was a tween!), and I extended that tutoring to students in other non-editing areas about two years ago when I started tutoring college students and their middle school...

...and my particular strengths are biology, calculus, genetics, and algebra, although I enjoy reading and writing as well. My tutoring philosophy is to simplify information into a form that almost anyone can understand. I usually do this by gauging a student's background information on a subject, starting with the basics and working up in complexity, until I can determine and focus on what a student is specifically struggling with the most. In my free time,...

In general it's important to minimize lecturing and to give a student the opportunity to try and...
