ACT Aspire Tutor • +21 Subjects

I am a secondary English education graduate from Northern Kentucky University, and am currently working on my Master's in Reading education from San Diego State University. Upon graduation, I had the opportunity to teach English at a local high school in Northern Kentucky for two years. After those two years, I knew I needed a change and decided to apply for my graduate degree at San Diego State University. Since my time in San Diego, I have had the opportunity to travel around to many different San Diego City Schools as a visiting teacher.I have extensive experience teaching/tutoring English in all ages as well as test prep and college essays. I am extremely passionate about education. I am a firm believer that every individual has the right to equal education. The power of language and the written word is vital for human survival and success. I hope that I can be there to help you become more confident in the subject of English and therefore become more confident in school and the future.While I dedicate a great amount of my life to education, in my spare time I enjoy running, hiking, yoga, healthy eating, the arts, music, and watching movies with friends and family. I also love traveling and experience new cultures. I look forward to meeting you and hopefully helping you achieve success.

Algebra Tutor • +19 Subjects

I am currently a graduate student looking to complete my Master's degree in Education along with my teaching credential to teach Foundational Math. I just moved up to Orange County a few months ago and cannot wait to see what new adventures will come in the next year! I have been tutoring since I was in high school and have always enjoyed mathematics. Since then, I have worked with students as young as kindergarten all the way up to high school seniors. Over the years, I have learned that not everyone is as excited about school as I am, so I always try to connect the material to the students as much as possible. I am always willing to go that extra mile to reach my students in a way that they will understand the material and maybe even enjoy it! In my free time, I enjoy playing soccer, walking around the beach, exploring my new town, and reading a good book.

Alexander

Algebra Tutor • +46 Subjects

I am currently a doctoral student at the University of Southern California, and I completed earlier degrees at the Juilliard School in New York and at La Sierra University in Riverside, CA. At La Sierra as an undergrad, I received dual degrees with honors in violin and mathematics, both of which have led me to teaching opportunities. In tutoring either field, I enjoy the constant adaptation of finding an approach suited to each student that will help them achieve their goals. Both mathematics and music are often considered to be innate talents, but being able to assist students of any background in gaining proficiency is an exciting opportunity for me and a fulfilling one when it happens. Beyond mathematics, I also welcome tutoring opportunities in Chemistry and especially Physics, with it's mathematical foundation.Another field in which I feel passionately about helping others is in English writing. Prior to working for Varsity Tutors, I would often help my friends with editing personal statements. I have also been fortunate to enjoy a key role in a start-up orchestra in New York City as a grant writer. Writing is an indispensable life skill that is too often overlooked, and I feel that my background allows me to be of help in a variety of tutoring subjects involving writing, from test prep to grammar and mechanics.I was fortunate to do well enough on the PSAT to earn a full scholarship for my undergraduate studies, and I recognize the importance of the PSAT, SAT, and AP tests for other students in achieving their educational hopes and dreams with a minimum financial burden. I am happy to work with students to prepare them for the standardized tests in the areas within my expertise.When I am not occupied with school, one of my hobbies is cycling and bicycle mechanics. I've rebuilt a number of vintage steel bicycles, and would like to build a wheel soon. I also like to stay active on the side with video and audio editing projects.

Algebra Tutor • +30 Subjects

I graduated from San Diego State University in 2012 and earned my BA in International Security & Conflict Resolution with a minor in Islamic & Arabic Studies. I am currently working towards my teaching credential and am also enrolled in a TEFL certification program.Since graduating from San Diego State University, I have primarily been employed as a teacher’s assistant at a local charter school. At the charter school, I help middle school and high school students in a wide variety of subjects. I spend a significant amount of time tutoring students in math courses, including Pre-Algebra, Algebra, and Geometry. In addition, I grade and review assignments which allows me to better identify areas for improvement and tailor my tutoring approach to fit the student’s needs. I have a noted ability to build rapport with students and am genuinely interested in seeing them improve and excel.As a tutor, my teaching style is adaptive yet straightforward. In general, we review the concepts and work through practice problems together. How I explain the concepts and the examples I use varies depending on the student’s interests and learning style. Throughout the process, I ensure the student comprehends the concepts by having them teach it back to me.In my spare time, I like to exercise, keep up with global affairs, read articles about mass transit, and travel. I have visited about 30 countries and credit the experiences with my passion for learning and teaching.

Cristina

College English Tutor • +18 Subjects

I received my undergraduate degree from U.C.-Berkeley with a major in political science, and minors in Spanish and Russian language. My master's degrees, from the University of Texas at Austin, are in Public Affairs and Russian/Eastern European studies. I have lived in Russia and traveled extensively throughout South America. I tutor English (grammar and composition), Spanish, history, and public speaking. I believe that education can (and should) be fun, and that teaching and tutoring are much more effective when the student is happy and engaged. My approach to tutoring is to listen carefully to each student so I can get a sense of what it is about the particular subject that they find challenging. I enjoy teaching, and I have tutored Spanish to native English speakers as well as taught English as a Second Language (ESL) for the state of Arizona. As someone who has learned both Spanish and Russian through classroom instruction, I find it rewarding to help students enjoy the challenges of learning a foreign language at school. As someone who loves to read and write, I also enjoy working with students on the challenges of essay composition and reading comprehension. My theater background has also prepared me well to help students who struggle with public speaking. In my spare time, I love to work on various design projects around my house, practice yoga, spend time with my dog, and train for a backpacking trip I plan to take through Europe next year.

Sarah

ACT English Tutor • +32 Subjects

I am currently a sophomore at NYU studying English and Journalism. However, I can help with almost any subject, including math and science, as I took advanced-level courses and 13 AP tests in high school. I have years of experience tutoring students of all ages, from elementary school through high school. In my spare time, I enjoy playing the violin, reading, and writing. I live in New York City during the academic year (September - May) and would be happy to tutor in-person (depending on the travel distance) then. Of course, if you/your child is more comfortable with online tutoring, I can tutor online year-round. Thanks for dropping by, and I hope to work with you/your child soon!

Experiencing different worldviews is very important to me. I've lived abroad in France and love to travel and explore new spaces and ideas. I'm a creative visual thinker and respect that everyone is different in their learning processes.

Algebra Tutor • +14 Subjects

I am a graduate of Purdue University with my Bachelor's of Science in Biomedical Engineering. I am currently working towards my Master's at the University of Southern California in Medical Device and Diagnostics Engineering. I have experience in mentorship through high school volunteering as a mentor for freshman and other new students at the school. I also have mentorship experience through my roles as Team Leader and Supervisor for Purdue's new student orientation program, Boiler Gold Rush. These mentorship experiences have strengthened my open-minded, positive, patient, and friendly personality. I love meeting and interacting with mew people! I tutor Biomedical Engineering, AP Calculus AB, Calculus, Pre-Calculus, Algebra2, Algebra, Pre-Algebra, Geometry, and Middle School Math. My favorite subject is Calculus (both AP and regular) because it challenges students to integrate multiple concepts and apply them to real situations. Calculus is also inspiring to me because of its real world applications and uses. My tutoring style focuses on how the student learns, not simply what they are learning. I like to figure out how the student effectively learns (are they a visual leaner? more of an auditory learner? a combination of both?) and tailor my tutoring accordingly. Outside of academia, I enjoy golfing, being outdoors, and reading (currently I am fascinated by non-fiction books about viruses and bacteria!).

Sophia

Algebra Tutor • +39 Subjects

A graduate of University of California, Berkeley, with a B.S. in Chemistry and a B.A. in Biology, I have a strong foundation in math and science. Since graduating from college, I have spent my time traveling to France, working a an academic tutor for middle and high school students, volunteering in the Emergency Department of a local hospital, and (most recently) applying to medical school. My favorite part about tutoring is working to engage students to feel as excited and interested as I do towards the material that I teach and hearing my students tell me that they learn more with me in an hour than they do in an entire week of school! When I teach, I strive to let my students know that they are in a safe place where no question is too insignificant to ask while simultaneously encouraging them to be active participants in the sessions so that they can better retain the material we cover and better analyze problems or questions for improved success! Some of my favorite activities outside of work include breaking out some tunes on my violin or guitar, experimenting in the kitchen with cooking various cuisines, staying active outdoors, and playing with my friends' and family's cats.
