...sub-steps required to move from start to finish. This confusion often gives way to self-doubt, a lack of confidence in our ability, and ultimately abandonment of those educational pursuits. I believe that this is where a tutor can fill a fundamental role. A tutor can help his/her students greatly by providing structure and guidance, along with consistent reinforcement, to guard against the onset of self-doubt. Additionally a skilled tutor will excel in the following: *Determine...

...they were struggling most at. Watching things "click" for them gave me a joy, and I loved to watch them learn about themselves. Now that I have graduated, I was looking for ways to continue to tutor and came across Varsity Tutors. I love working through problems and helping students understand concepts, not just individual problems. I believe in starting at the basics, and ensuring that students know what they need to know. I have...

...tend to like to keep sessions casual when possible-- I don't want to lecture you. I'm a strong believer that concepts are best grasped when you form your own opinions and feelings about the subject, and that happens with conversation! So, let's get to know each other a little bit before we hit the books so that I can tailor each session to accommodate your specific interests and strengths as much as possible.

I am a senior English major who has provided English-focused tutoring to high school, undergraduate, and graduate students for the past year.

I went to a fine arts elementary and middle school, and...

...a Biology Teaching and Learning Assistant for two years and that experience sparked my joy of helping students realize their learning potential (even in their hardest subjects). As I continued my schooling, I enrolled in cognitive psychology and that experience solidified my interest in helping people learn - especially in the language aspect. Seeing how much one's language affected how they saw the world made me appreciate our brains even more. Following graduation, I traveled...

...part of your learning process. My background is in social work, I've worked primarily with children and their families to manage and cope with mental illness.

...the real world. One must always beware, however, of using technology for its own sake. The fact that a good online or computer exercise exists does not mean it needs to be used.

...and tutoring math and statistics students within the Minnesota State colleges and universities system has been both challenging and satisfying. Helping students overcome their math frustration is a highlight. These subjects are not for everyone.

Based on my own training, I feel most comfortable tutoring the following subjects/topics/courses: thesis writing; dissertation writing; research papers; research...

...literature courses, but I also love helping students grow in their reading skills and other classes. I believe that every learner has the ability to grow if a good teacher or tutor pushes him or her along the way. I try to do that through first getting to know the student and then empowering him or her through modeling and questioning to get to core understanding. I like to also use humor and a lot...

...apply to graduate school for a masters of Ecology and Evolution.
