Jack
Algebra Tutor • +36 Subjects
I am a recent graduate from Iowa State in Civil Engineering. I recently moved to Seattle to start a job with Habitat for Humanity working as a Construction Volunteer Lead. I pursued engineering because I enjoy using math and critical thinking to solve complex problems. I am also currently studying for the GRE so that I may apply for grad school next fall.I enjoy all things active. I played ultimate frisbee for my university's club team and hope to find another team to play for here in Seattle. I am happiest when I leave civilization behind and enjoy the outdoors. I love camping, hiking, backpacking, and I recently got into rock climbing.As a tutor, I believe it is my job to provide supplemental instruction that is tailored to my students' needs and learning style. Listing to a teacher explain how to solve a math problem is not everybody's favorite way to learn. Sometimes it just takes someone willing to patiently answer any and all questions. Sometimes it requires someone to show a different technique. Everyone has the ability to learn, you just have to find the right way.

The war began on 25 June 1950: a 14-year-old boy escaped with his seven younger siblings and parents from North Korea to South Korea to avoid the enemy's attack. The young boy promised his grandparents that he would return when the war ended. Assuming he could return in a week or two, he left his two youngest sisters with his grandparents and hid his favorite roller skate under the floor. This boy is my grandfather: it has been 70 years since he left his home. Since I was five, I lived with my grandparents. Many modern families may think it unusual to live with the older generation; however, my worldview has been profoundly shaped by my grandparents' passion, wisdom, and unmeasurable love for their children.In spring 2020, I returned home early due to COVID-19 and I spent a lot of time with my grandfather. He insisted that I was like himself as a youth, since I am also a firstborn of three children. Sharing his own experience of studying, my grandfather told me how his heart beat so quickly when he learned and the joy he felt when he achieved hard work. My own hard work, he reminded me, would be its own reward: I will achieve my dream and be successful if I am diligent and honest. Before I began college, my grandfather's advice did not really influence me. Although he always emphasized morality, hard work, and a genuine heart, I barely listened. After all, I assumed, I was just a little girl living in the protection of a conservative family. I was too inexperienced to understand the depth of his advice; however, when I left home for college, I realized how significant his advice was.College was a challenge! As a firstborn sibling and a first-generation student attending college in America, I always felt pressure to set a high standard for my siblings to follow. I was extremely anxious. Each day, I strove for success and believed that I could never fail. The first two years were painful, specifically because I had weak values and no passion for my future. After 730 days at university, I learned how identity and morality could affect my life's values and passion. A strong identity and morals not only inspire me to do my best work, but also results in strong passion and values. Initially, this realization crushed me, because I had none of these character traits. When I was younger, I was very skeptical about humans because most people seemed to prioritize succeeding in a career, rather than living a moral life. Furthermore, people try to justify their decisions by insisting that this is the only way to succeed in this competitive society. This mindset is very dangerous to immature, impressionable young adults, especially because they have not yet developed a strong identity or morals. Although I attempted to mimic this strategy, I realized that it would crush my passion and soul.Desperate to find my calling, I travelled on a mission trip to Peru in my sophomore year. As a daughter of a pastor, I had been on multiple mission trips with my parents, but this mission trip was my first medical mission trip alone. Based on my previous experiences, I learned that I love to help people and, through my service, to make them smile. In Peru, I loved observing the interaction between dentists and patients and I was amazed to see how dentists could bring back the patients' smiles. Furthermore, during the mission trip, my life's calling became clear. When I saw the patients' relieved faces after treatments, I felt it from my heart that dentistry would be the passion and dream that I had searched for. Just like how my grandfather's heart beat so fast for his own studies, my heart began to beat for dentistry. Reflecting on my college experience, I am thankful that I struggled with my calling, because these experiences not only strengthened my values and passion, but also revealed why I want to become a good dentist. There are numerous intelligent and smart people and these traits may make them successful. During my first two years of college, I thought success should be my ultimate goal because it is the way to survive this competitive society. When my worldview and values strengthened, however, I decided to be a dentist with a warm, caring heart. Just as equilibrium occurs through the transfer of heat from a warmer object to a cooler object, so my warmth and compassion can reach my patients' hearts. Through my service, they will smile again.

ACT English Tutor • +32 Subjects
For most of my life, I've been a teacher of some sort. In middle and high school, I was an arithmetic and algebra tutor for underprivileged kids; in college, I volunteered in the math and writing centers; now, I'm teach ethics and logic classes in the philosophy department at UW-Madison. Teaching is the most important part of my life, and my role as an educator is what most defines my identity. I have no general guiding principle about teaching, other than that it isn't really useful to think in terms of such principles. Rather, I think that it's best to approach each student as having a distinct learning style and set of educational objectives, and thus, as representing a distinct set of challenges and rewards.

Stephen
Biology Tutor • +8 Subjects
I am a graduate of Colby College in Waterville Maine, where I received my BA in Biology. Since then I have taught high school Biology and Chemistry in a public high school in a suburb of Boston. I received my Masters of Education from Fitchburg State University, as well as an advanced degree in Educational Leadership and Management. Along with being a teacher, I was a football and baseball coach in Massachusetts for the past 9 years. I believe that teaching academic subjects and sports go hand in hand, and I am equally passionate about teaching and coaching.My favorite part of being a teacher is the one on one interactions with students. Whether it is on the field or in the classroom, I love the feeling when students have that "Ah ha!" moment, and finally get a difficult concept. I have experience with teaching all different types of learners, and students with various learning disabilities. I love to differentiate instruction in order to fit each student's unique learning style.I love tutoring science, particularly biology and chemistry because these subjects require a unique way of thinking. Instead of committing facts to memory, I challenge students to learn patterns, to use critical thinking skills and to question their reasoning in order to come up with a plan to solve scientific problems. I believe that scientific thinking is a skill that can help students in all facets of their life.When I am not in the classroom, I enjoy being active. My hobbies include going for walks with my puppy, spending time outside, and playing and watching sports. I played football in college, and I still play softball and flag football.

I am a graduate of Temple University College of Liberal Arts. I received my Bachelor's of Arts in Criminal Justice. I studied kinesiology for three years in addition to studying Criminal Justice. It was during my experience studying Criminal Justice where I found my true love for education. After graduating college in 2017 I worked as a therapeutic support staff and behavior health worker in Philadelphia School district. I worked 1:1 with students that had learning and behavioral challenges and assisted them in having successful school days. I enjoyed watching my students thrive and overcome various challenges in the classroom. When I relocated to Florida I began teaching English to non native English speakers (ESL). I am excited to reconnect with the subjects I love the most such as Elementary Math, Reading and Writing here at Varsity Tutors !
Vania
Algebra Tutor • +24 Subjects
I have been teaching for almost 20 years and I really enjoy interaction with students. I think there is a lot for an instructor to learn from that interaction since you put apart the problem you are trying to teach. You learn details you never thought were there. I got my bachelor's degrees from UMKC in computer science and math and I'm passionate about both and especially about AI as its a wonderful combination of both. Currently I'm pursuing my Master's in computer science with a concentration in data science. I'm tutoring Python, R, Data Science, Discrete Math, Math, Middle School Math and Technology and Computer Science.
