I am a writer and editor with a B.A. in English from Pomona College. I mostly enjoy tutoring English, but math and science come easily to me as well. I love helping students get the most from their education. That moment when the material finally connects is everything. Outside of academia, I enjoy making music, reading, and working on my novel.

I'm a finance student at the University of Georgia dedicated to helping my students learn math and other skills through practice and hard work. I began my tutoring career at Kumon where I developed a passion to help other students excel in their academic careers. My teaching philosophy is practice, the only to truly master a subject is to practice it until you can do it with your eyes closed.

...with words, whether they be speech or writing. Kinesthetic learners take in knowledge by using their body and sense of touch. As a tutor, I hope to help you find which styles, or combination of styles, works best for you. This way, you know better how to study on your own, and you can develop your skills at becoming an independent learner. So here is a little about me: I grew up in the beautiful...

Not only will I be persistent, I will also share my own methods to ace the client's...

I am a recent graduate of Emory University, where I studied Mathematics and Philosophy. I have over three years of experience tutoring middle-school to high-school students in math, science, and test prep. I think every student learns differently, and the most important job of a tutor is to tailor his or her style of teaching to each student's unique way of thinking.

...smart. While coaching teachers is my role, I never stopped tutoring because there's nothing like hearing my kids shout "Ohhhhh!" after doing math they never thought they could handle. I think most kids struggle in math because they think they can't memorize all the steps. I work hard to help students find strategies that make sense to them. When my students see that there are so many ways to get to the answer, they become...

...mainly in the sciences but also in writing and math. I like to tutor because it is a very fulfilling task and I truly enjoy helping others learn. Knowledge and education are very valuable tools in life so I see tutoring as a gratifying duty of mine to help others learn material with which they are having difficulty. I graduated from the University of Georgia in May 2011 (B.S. Chemistry) and I have aspirations of...

...to learn to throw a perfect knuckleball, because that pitch has always fascinated me. I teach because it's meaningful work; no one's life was made measurably or permanently better when I was serving pizzas. Teaching, though, can have a lasting impact. I am where I am and even who I am because of my teachers: Lindsey J. taught me how to think; Deborah B. taught me how to write; Paul B. taught me the vast...

...am also gifted in some of the fine arts. I am currently working toward obtaining my BS/MS in Nuclear and Radiological Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology. As a tutor, I will give my all to help each and every student not only do well in their current class or on the standardized exam they preparing for, but to give them the skills necessary to perform at high levels at every facet of their...

...PSU students to participate in a direct exchange to Paris, where I lived for a year with a French host family, took business courses in French, and interned at an event planning company, which allowed me plan a full event in Barcelona. From 2005-2006, I taught high school English as a Fulbright English Teaching Assistant in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. I have also lived in Salvador (Brazil), DC, New York City, and Austin.

...become stronger across each draft they revise. When working with students in my literature classes at UVa and the North Carolina Governor's School, I especially enjoy helping students develop strategies for careful, critical reading. My years of teaching and tutoring have led me to the firm belief that literary analysis and clear writing are not mysterious talents that you either have or you don'tinstead, I believe anyone can become a better interpreter of literature and...

...have always enjoyed helping others understand math concepts. I would love to help you (or your child) succeed on the SAT. I've always been a strong test taker because of the strategies I use. I can not only help you understand the math, but also help you study more efficiently and manage your time effectively while taking tests. I look forward to teaching anyone who has the desire to improve his or her SAT score.

...grasp in an instant. This problem of student discouragement is a serious one, because learning starts with motivation; students will not be motivated to learn in an environment where they feel overwhelmed, scared, or unintelligent. That's where tutoring comes in. I've found that the best way for anyone to learn is by meeting with a teacher one-on-one. I was fortunate enough to study for three months in Oxford, England in 2010, and during those three...

...process of elimination and strategic guessing. Additionally, I have always been good with Mathematics and Spanish. I tutored my peers in Math throughout all of middle and high school. I love Spanish and studied it for seven years (up until mid-college). One high school sophomore I helped in Spanish raised her D+ to an A! While a majority of my tutoring experience is from high school, I have had plenty of leadership experience since that...

...in Chemistry and often helped other students with subjects that were easy for me. I know it can be frustrating for students so helping them understand their subjects and gain confidence is what makes me like to tutor. I have also been a volunteer mentor/tutor here in Atlanta since I graduated college and look forward to helping more students. When I tutor, I am careful not to do the work for the student, I help...

...third-grade and sixth-grade students. I currently serve as a Substitute Teacher at The Westminster Schools in Atlanta. In my free time I enjoy writing poetry, running, hiking, and spending time with friends. I approach teaching through a student-centered philosophy--I listen to students' perspectives and help to guide them (using their starting point) toward successful strategies. I aim to make students aware of organizational processes and problem-solving strategies which they use currently, and suggest further strategies...

...and college level) as well as through extensive involvement on summer camp staff. These experiences have afforded me the opportunity to build interpersonal, communication, and instructional design skills that are effective and enjoyable. I am confident that I can help students with Psychology, Quantitative Methods, English, Public Speaking, Writing/English, and Essay Editing. In addition, I can teach study skills that a student can take with them through the rest of her or his academic career.

...they do not understand it enough. When I teach my students, I try my best to make sure they can achieve this deep level of understanding in whatever subject they are studying. I have tutored professionally for Mathnasium where I tutored math in all levels ranging from algebra to single variable calculus, and have tutored privately in subjects such as quantum mechanics, and introductory physics. In my free time, I enjoy playing ultimate frisbee, going...
