I have always loved to teach students! As a certified special education and general education teacher, with a Master of Arts in Teaching, I have been able to work in public schools to address the differentiated needs of elementary education students. Working one on one in tutoring sessions enables me to hone in on particular needs of my students, at different grades and levels. Sometimes, content or format modifications are required. Other times, delivery of instruction or positive reinforcement pertaining to confidence and motivation is needed. Input from family members and students is helpful to the learning process. Ultimately, the joy of current learning and motivation to learn in the future is of essence.

I was a straight A student in high school, graduate Cum Laude from Stony Brook University, and went on to attend Cornell University for my MBA. Currently I'm a start-up consultant. I've always enjoyed teaching, however, that's why I like tutoring. I've a teaching assistant many times over, both in undergrad and grad school. I've also been a private tutor since high school. My goal is help you achieve, if not exceed your own. I believe in using a student's background and interests to help them understand concepts they may not grasp upon first review. I'm always available as a resource online when there in person. I really do enjoy tutoring, and I can't wait to be yours.

Hello! I am a recent chemistry graduate from Cornell University. I have always loved teaching and believe that one-on-one guidance can be a strong aid not just for school, but really for any life activity. I have experience tutoring elementary, middle, and high school students but am willing to teach at any level. My specialties lie in the sciences and with my strong research background I am not a stranger to navigating and explaining what seems like daunting concepts.Going beyond the technical details of each subject, I believe that strong foundational study skills can assist the student in all their subjects. While I am sure my methods arent perfect, I hope to narrow down on the perfect study and tutoring styles to match each student.

I am a recent Cornell University graduate (Dec '23) majoring in Biological Sciences with a focus on Genetics, Genomics, and Development. My passion lies in healthcare, as I am currently preparing to attend medical school this upcoming fall. However, I have always had an interest in teaching. I started as a general chemistry TA, supporting students during problem solving sessions. Then, I helped teach our genetics lecture course, coordinating individual and group tutoring sessions that guided students in content application. This position transformed into a leadership role, organizing our teaching team while spearheading an initiative to train fellow teaching assistants in pedagogical techniques that I learned in a course I took on the art of teaching. Lastly, in an ethics of medicine course of non-STEM majors, I prepared and facilitated discussion sections on current topics in personalized medicine. These experiences, combined with my time as a teaching assistant in correctional facilities, helped me grow as a varsity tutor now going into my 4th year on this platform. Given this breadth of experience teaching diverse and unique students, I am eager and excited to support young scientists in any subject related to this field.

I believe most people learn best by practicing, but it has to be the right kind of practice. Flailing around at something intimidating, where you don't know how to even start, can be discouraging and counterproductive. I try to provide enough scaffolding to make students feel safe exploring, and to try something else if the first approach doesn't work. I also try to teach the process of solving problems, which students can use for themselves as they build confidence.I have a Masters Degree in Chemistry from Cornell, where I was a teaching assistant for Introductory Chemistry, Analytical Chemistry, and Physical Chemistry. While pursuing a PhD at RPI, I was a volunteer tutor for Chemistry and Chemical Engineering students.While working in industry, I taught my co-workers Statistics, Experiment Design, and Technical Writing. More recently, I have been a professional independent tutor, helping students with test prep, Math, Statistics, Chemistry, and Physics. I help teens and adults overcome fears (especially fear of Math) so they can learn more effectively and solve problems confidently.I teach test prep, Math, Statistics, Chemistry, and Physics. I especially like teaching Math, because I find it so satisfying to help students overcome the barriers related to thinking they "can't do Math." Whether my students want to use Math to excel in Science, or to get top scores on standardized tests, or just recognize when somebody is lying to them with Statistics, I like knowing I can help.

My teaching specialties include Biology, Psychology, the Life Sciences, Reading, Writing, and preparation for verbal and writing test sections. I studied Biology at Cornell University, graduating with Honors in 2009, and earned a Master's in Psychology from the University of Chicago in 2010. I currently tutor students ranging from elementary to high school in critical reading and analytical writing, both as part of SAT prep and in the context of English and Social Studies classwork. I have a long history of teaching, starting with tutoring students in the introductory biology lecture at Cornell after I earned an A+ in the class. My passion for science education led me to volunteer with Roots and Shoots, an environmental education organization, to teach hands-on workshops for young children at the local science center about topics such as flower anatomy, animal tracks, and the popular 'egg drop'. I was also a peer counselor and trained incoming counselors, which involved teaching in front of large groups and leading small-group exercises. For my Master's thesis research, I became a research assistant at the Lincoln Park Zoo, studying the behavior of chimpanzees and gorillas. I frequently interacted with zoo guests as I collected my data and enjoyed teaching them about ape behavior, care, and conservation. Most recently, I took on students in my hometown of West Windsor, NJ as I prepared my Master's thesis for publication in a scientific journal.Motivating the next generation to be enthusiastic scholars and engaged citizens is one of my primary goals. I am particularly adept at communicating complex ideas, and I am eager to share this skill with younger students. In college I took several writing-intensive classes in my biology major, and I further honed my writing skill in my undergraduate Honor's thesis and my Master's thesis, which has been published. I scored very highly in the verbal and writing sections on the SAT and GRE, and I am well-placed to help your student improve his or her score as well as better comprehend and communicate his or her own ideas.

I am a recent graduate from Cornell University, with a degree in Biological Sciences and a concentration in Genetics, Genomics, and Development, and a minor in Jewish Studies. I'll soon be headed to med school, but in the meantime, I want to help kiddos learn math and science in a way that makes it fun and accessible!

I am a chemical engineering student at Cornell University. I enjoy learning math and science and want to share my passion for these subjects. I have experience working as a sleep-away camp counselor and enjoyed those summers. I also have prior tutoring experience at the high school level.

I am a recent graduate of Cornell University. I graduated from the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences (CALS) at Cornell with a Bachelor’s in Science. I majored in Biology with a concentration in Molecular and Cell Biology. I am currently working in medical research here in New York and am planning on applying to MD and MD/PHD programs. I have worked in many different study group environments and I believe that putting topics and ideas into the proper context makes the information easier to process as well as more memorable to the student. I have seen this in everything from US History to biology and truly believe this is the best way to fully understand and grasp new concepts. My down time consists of a lot of physical activity, whether that is in the form of going to the gym or playing ice hockey and soccer. I find staying physically active is a great way to balance the academic challenges in my life and allows for me to have a productive escape whenever I need one.

As a dedicated educator holding a Doctorate in Engineering from Georgia Tech (ABD) and a Master's in Electrical Engineering from Cornell University, I specialize in tutoring subjects such as Algebra, Calculus, and Statistics. With over 2 years of experience in both tutoring and classroom environments, I am committed to creating a supportive learning atmosphere that encourages student engagement and builds confidence. My teaching philosophy emphasizes the importance of connecting mathematical concepts to real-world applications, making the subject not only comprehensible but also enjoyable. I am deeply motivated by my students' success, finding immense satisfaction in their academic growth. In my free time, I enjoy exploring new technologies and sharing my passion for mathematics through engaging, hands-on projects.

I am a Cornell University student, and plan to major in Computer Science. Technology is my main passion. I've developed apps and websites, and have taught a programming class to elementary school students, and I plan to tutor computer science and programming.Besides tech, I also like reading, and have a particular knack for the English and Reading portions of the ACT and SAT. My philosophy for test taking success is to know the base material required to answer the questions, know the tactics to optimize approaches to questions, and to do practice problems and rigorously review mistakes. I aim to tutor students in the ACT and SAT using this philosophy, helping them approach it efficiently.Outside of these areas, I also enjoy playing soccer, playing tennis, and traveling.

My personal goals for every moment of teaching are the growth of the student and the teacher. As one learns, as does the other. I will ensure that we will both learn and grow with each session.I first began tutoring in high school through Science National Honor Society and learned there that I love teaching others and began tutoring outside of school. Now here I'm in university and eager to teach while I'm learning.

Hi, I'm Frankie! I have recently earned degrees in both Math and Physics from Cornell University. Prior to joining Varsity Tutors, I worked as both a Math Course Assistant and as an SAT Math Tutor. In addition to working with students, I'm also currently conducting Applied Math Research for the National Science Foundation at Pennsylvania State University. During my years of High School, I was running for my Cross Country team and was digging for my State Champion Volleyball team. Also, I am an amateur juggler and an avid chess player.

I earned my bachelor's degree in chemical engineering, then worked in the computer database software industry as a pre-sales engineer, consultant, trainer, and quality assurance engineer. Consulting in several industries gave me broad exposure to real-world problems and a work ethic that may serve as a role model. I learned to listen to problems and come up with creative and practical solutions. As a trainer and pre-sales engineer, I co-wrote a tutorial, created class materials, and made many technical presentations about "leading edge" software, and so became skilled at explaining complex concepts. My work in QA reinforced my obsession with quality and gave me a good eye for seeing and diagnosing errors, which applies to student errors and misunderstandings.I have tutored on and off since my college days, in math, science and ESL. I approach tutoring with a positive attitude, a good ear for listening, patience, respect, and humor. I have a bias toward deep understanding rather than rote memorization.

I am a rising sophomore at Cornell University. I am studying Statistics and Economics, with possible minors in information science and computer science. I have been working with students for several years now and have provided academic support to my peers throughout my time as a high school and now college student. Through my religious school, I taught students of all ages, ranging from Pre-K through 8th Grade. In high school, I helped prepare students for AP, SAT, ACT, and SAT subject tests as part of my role in the National Honor Society. I have considerable personal experience with a vast array of subjects and love sharing my knowledge and experience with others. From calculus to creative writing, I have a genuine passion for all academic pursuits and helping others feel the same way.

I graduated from Cornell University with a double major in Math and Physics. I am a prospective Math PhD student with research interests in geometry and mathematical physics. I have 1 year experience as a teaching assistant in mechanics and multivariable calculus. I have had multiple tutoring experiences beginning in high school with honors physics and now including calculus, differential equations, linear algebra, E&M, and quantum mechanics.I hope to help students develop both the tools to become independent learners and the confidence to face difficult problems head-on. I will work hard to ensure that students learn efficient study habits, develop proper problem-solving techniques, and gain an intuition for the mathematical and physical ideas they will encounter.I believe the best way to learn is by doing problems, and the best way to understand is by iteratively building on simple ideas. My tutoring approach will follow similarly to how I approached my undergraduate and graduate level courses. We will solve many problems and more importantly identify and classify the central ideas unique to each problem. We will make an honest effort to see how each new idea we learn fits in context with preceding ideas we have u

I recently graduated magna cum laude with honors from Messiah University (located near Harrisburg, PA) with a B.S. in biochemistry (ACS certified). This fall I will be starting a biochemistry Ph.D. at Cornell University. While a student at Messiah, I served as a supplemental instruction leader for general chemistry courses. This involved sitting in on the lectures and holding two 90 minute review sessions each week in which I would create worksheets and activities to help students to learn and retain the information from the course. I really enjoy working with students in chemistry and biology courses, as I love sharing my passion for science with others. Furthermore, I believe that students have different learning styles and as a tutor it is my job to accommodate whichever learning style best suits each student. I value getting to know my students on a personal level as well as an academic level in order to best help them succeed. Outside of academics, I'm an avid distance runner, love hiking and being outside, listening to music, and doing jigsaw puzzles.

I'm currently a researcher in the biomedical field with my B.S in Biomedical Engineering from Cornell University. With several years of tutoring experience under my belt, and a long journey of figuring out my own techniques for studying and retaining vital classroom knowledge, I have a tool belt ready of methods to succeed in the classroom. Additionally, I have worked with students on all sides of the learning/comprehension spectrum and will help your child gain the confidence and skills necessary for long term success!

Ashley is a medical student at RWJMS and recent graduate of Cornell University. She majored in chemistry and was awarded cum laude after spending a majority of her undergraduate career researching with the Lancaster Group. Ashley has over 4 years of tutoring experience.

From the track to the classroom, the boardroom to the community, I have always been driven by one thing: the pursuit of potential. As an athlete, I know the power of discipline, resilience, and pushing past limits. As an entrepreneur, I embrace creativity, calculated risks, and the thrill of turning ideas into impact. As a teacher and mentor, I find purpose in guiding others to discover their strengths and chart their own paths to success. And as a lifelong learner, I never stop asking questions, seeking growth, and challenging myself to be better than I was yesterday. I believe that true success isn't measured just by personal achievements but by the lives we touch along the way. Whether I'm coaching an athlete, inspiring a student, advising a startup, or simply offering a word of encouragement, my mission is to help others unlock their potential and create meaningful change. In everything I do, I bring energy, passion, and an unshakable belief that everyone has the ability to achieve greatness. The challenge? Helping them see it for themselves. That's where I come in.

I am a graduate of Cornell University's College of Arts and Sciences. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Chemistry with Distinction in 2015. Since graduation, I was a physics/chemistry teacher and soccer coach at a private school in Virginia for a year, where I led the soccer team to an undefeated season. Before teaching and coaching professionally, I was a Teaching Assistant for the Cornell Math and Physics Departments, where I taught many subjects including calculus, mechanics, electromagnetism. Throughout my time at Cornell and as a teacher, I tutored subjects ranging from the SAT to AP Physics and Algebra II, which is where my true talents lie: in small group or one-on-one settings where I can give students the full attention they deserve and tailor my approach specifically to their learning styles. This is why I am now pursuing tutoring as a part-time occupation at Varsity Tutors. I embrace teaching all math and science subjects, especially physics and calculus, at both the college and high school level and will go above and beyond to make sure all of my students succeed, according to their definition of success. In my spare time, I enjoy playing league soccer, basketball, tennis and guitar, and also like to travel and see as much of the world as I can.

I am a PhD student in Chemistry at the University of Windsor. I did both my Undergraduate and Master's degree in Chemistry at the University of Windsor as well. I also did a year and a half of course/research work at Cornell University. I am interested in the academic field and hope to one day hold a position in the academic world to do groundbreaking research and teach the next generation of students the very fundamentals of Chemistry. I love teaching and I have been doing it since 2011. I have taught many students at different levels and from different backgrounds. I like to make sure that students understand concepts rather than memorize. I take my time explaining concepts and always have examples on the top of my head to help understand different problems in Chemistry.

Teachers made a huge difference in my life when I was growing up. Now, as an adult, I feel lucky to be able to give back as a tutor. I love getting to know my students, learning how they tick. Understanding how my students learn allows me to tailor my approach to each student to fit his or her individual needs. I like to incorporate the student's interest as well as humor, when I can!

I recently graduated from Cornell University with a degree in English. I love all things literature and writing related. I have previous tutoring experience, having tutored 15 hours per week for 6 months at 826 Boston, a local non-profit focused on helping students develop creative writing and reading skills outside of the classroom. I am currently in the process of applying to PhD programs in English.When I'm not studying, I'm usually traveling or planning my next trip. I just returned from two months in Peru, Bolivia, and Chile, where I hopped from town to town and explored a new part of the world. Next I'm looking ahead to an extended hiking trip along the Continental Divide Trail in Colorado this summer. Backpacking and canoeing are my preferred modes of travel.I'm available to tutor anything English related- grammar, vocabulary, reading, essay writing, essay editing, college essay writing and editing, and the GRE verbal and analytic writing sections. My availability is flexible and includes evenings and weekends. I'm passionate about English, and I hope to share my enthusiasm with students.

My first experience with standardized testing was with the SHSAT, which I scored well enough on to attend NYC's prestigious Stuyvesant High School. Four years later, I took the SAT, after a summer of rigorous self preparation, and scored in the 99th percentile in both the Verbal and Math sections.In my academic and professional career, I've found that success is when the right mindset meets hard work and preparation.The beauty of this philosophy is that it does not discriminate against any student; everyone has a best that they should strive for. It's my focus to help each of my students reach that standard with a comprehensive preparation regimen tailored to each individual. Most of all, I am excited to pass down the knowledge and skills I've accumulated to help mentor my students to grow and achieve their goals.

I am originally from Brooklyn, New York and am currently working towards a master's degree in Nutrition from Columbia University. Prior to graduate studies, I received my bachelor's from Cornell University in the biological sciences. Outside of my academic life I enjoy cooking, dancing, horseback riding, and traveling. I have always made myself available as a tutor to my peers, but my formal tutoring experience began in my freshman year of college when I offered chemistry tutoring. Throughout my college career I have offered assistance with general biology, general chemistry, biochemistry, and microbiology. As a former student in the busy NYC public school system, I am aware that many students do not succeed fully solely given the limited learning styles used widely in schools. As a tutor I am honored to supplement schoolwork with individualized attention to meet your learning needs and help you succeed!

I am a junior Computer Science major in the College of Engineering at Cornell University. I have experience tutoring in the National Honor Society in high school, as well as on numerous occasions with acquaintances of mine who were struggling and needed a hand. I tutor high school computer science especially in java and python, as well as algebra (1 & 2) and calculus 1. I love tutoring the math subjects especially, because I feel very comfortable with the subjects and enjoy abstracting them in different ways to help any individual. I believe that success in education is key to building a great life for oneself, and that any person can succeed with the proper work ethic and support network. Even more, I love to see when people I have helped are successful, regardless of area of life. In my spare time, I love to follow college football and basketball and talk about games.

As an educator, an individual is required to fill various different roles in order to provide students with the most effective education possible. After reflecting upon my own formative educational experiences and the teachers that left a profound impact on my thought processes and belief in myself, I realized that educating extends beyond creating an engaging lesson plan, but also includes helping students learn more about themselves in order to shape them into leaders, life-long scholars and students, as well as servicemen and women who are passionate about giving back to their respective communities. Each student has his or her own unique learning style that is determined by his or her own personal experience and backgrounds. Because of this, it is important for an educator to not only provide rudimentary knowledge enclosed in textbooks, but to also fuel them with the inspiration they need to go out and learn more about the issues facing their communities in order to use their experiential learnings to help lift others out of their experiences. For much of my early life, I grew up feeling that I had many learning disabilities and that I could not learn and think like the other kids and was dumber because of it. However, from experience, I have realized that just because you think differently, that it doesn't mean that you think "worse" than everyone else. Learning this invaluable lesson through my own experiences makes me jump at the prospect to work with other students who have gone through similar challenges to help them unleash the power they have in discovering the strength nestled within knowledge.While I am an aspiring physician, I believe that there are many parallels between the two fields of medicine and education that would enable me to provide a unique and meaningful perspective to the classroom. Medicine demands effective education through teaching patients and their families about specific treatments, the manifestation of certain diseases, and the mechanisms of infection within specific physiological pathways. I truly began to appreciate this after interacting with my own pediatrician, who had built her own clinic from the ground-up using her knowledge, the power of education, and the strength of connection. Concerned parents entered the visiting room with coughing and crying parents and emerged with their worries assuaged and feeling more empowered knowing how to take care of their child. This considered, it is vital for every physician to become properly trained to handle these responsibilities: to be effective communicators and leaders, to dissect complex concepts into manageable chunks, and to serve as beacons of support to those seeking his or her support. This is why I want to become an educator before I embark on my medical school journey because I know that, without valuing this integral yet often disregarded facet of medicine, I will not be able to provide the best care possible to my patients. Diagnosis demands more than medicine - it requires care, attention and compassion. These skills, although may be taught in tandem with classroom lectures, can be more fully appreciated through connection and service. This is why I hope to become a Varsity Tutor in the near future: to help build connections with students through service and education as well as foster a passion for learning and academic leadership both in and out of the classroom.

I graduated from Cornell where I majored in Latin before beginning my pre-medical post-baccalaureate studies at Columbia. I greatly enjoy helping students of all ages to understand concepts, just as I have at Columbia where I would frequently guide my fellow peers through physics problems. I want to help students feel the "Ah ha!" moment of grasping a concept and breaking complex problems down to simple solutions. As a former swimmer and triathlete, I enjoy keeping physically fit. In my spare time, I enjoy playing guitar as well!

Hi there! I'm Will, and I'm passionate about helping students navigate the path to both academic excellence and professional success. As a Cornell University graduate and a member of the selective College Scholar Program, I double-majored in Development Economics and History, giving me a unique interdisciplinary perspective on how the world works. Whether you're aiming for a top-tier score on the SAT, mastering AP Economics and History, or crafting a distinctive narrative for your college essays, I bring a blend of academic rigor and strategic insight to every session. Having secured a role at a top-tier consulting firm like Oliver Wyman and completed internships at Capital One and Truist, I understand exactly what it takes to excel in elite environments. My students consistently find that complex concepts finally "click" through my disciplined yet adaptive teaching style.

As a passionate educator with a Master's degree in Statistics from Cornell University, I have over 2 years of tutoring and classroom experience in subjects such as Calculus, Linear Algebra, and Statistics. My teaching philosophy centers on fostering a supportive learning environment where students feel empowered to ask questions and engage deeply with the material. I believe that every student has unique strengths, and I strive to tailor my approach to meet their individual needs. Witnessing my students achieve their academic goals is what drives my passion for tutoring. Outside of the classroom, I enjoy exploring data visualization techniques and staying updated on the latest statistical methods, which I often incorporate into my lessons to make complex concepts more accessible and engaging.

I'm currently an undergraduate at Cornell University studying Biology. During a semester long break from working towards my Bachelor in Arts, I tutored Math to young students at Best In Class Education Center in Fort Bend, Texas. Prior to that teaching experience, I also tutored SAT Math. I was recruited shortly after taking the SAT myself, so it was a fresh and exciting experience for me. I currently tutor a variety of academic and test preparation subjects. I'm passionate about helping students because I have had some difficulty with certain subjects myself, and I understand the frustration of what that is like. My experience with High School Physics made me an advocate of getting help when it's needed. After seeking out assistance, I went from consistently struggling with the subject to graduating as Best Physics Student. I'm a firm proponent of the idea that with enough help, anyone can improve as drastically as I did. In my spare time, I enjoy painting, running and exploring.

Between trips abroad and completing coursework at Teachers College, Columbia University, I had the pleasure of tutoring students from my very own high school on Long Island and neighboring schools in town. After having received an MA in English education, I have relocated to Manhattan and I am eager to continue helping students achieve their academic goals. In particular, I specialize in tutoring all areas of the SAT and ACT, and any type of writing. Of course, whenever I work with students I aim to equip them with the skills I used in developing my mastery of the the material we are studying and the skills I would use to find the best answer choice or to get the sentence, paragraph and essay as a whole just right!

I am a current undergraduate student at Cornell University studying Electrical and Computer Engineering. I have a strong science and math background having taken many courses in Physics, Computer Programming, and various mathematics subjects ranging from Geometry, to Multivariable Calculus, to Differential Equations. I am also very passionate about English, Literature, Russian Studies, Spanish Language, and History. I believe that the key to success is having a well rounded education, so when I am not programming microcontrollers, one can either find me watching Russian news channels to polish up my vocabulary, reading textbooks on the history of the Middle East, or simply immersing myself in a Jane Austen novel. In my free time I also enjoy training for CrossFit, playing the viola, and traveling.I began tutoring in high school as part of my service requirement for the five honor societies that I was a part of, and I immediately fell in love with teaching. Nothing gives me more joy than being there when a student has that "aha" moment, when everything finally comes together and their eyes light up with joy. As a tutor I hope to share my passion for learning and inspire others to achieve their full potential as students.

I recently retired from teaching science after 16 years in the classroom including high school and middle school. I also taught algebra and pre-calculus at a community college in my spare time. I miss my interactions with students and find that tutoring is very rewarding. My favorite moment is when I see the "light bulb" showing that a student understands what they need. I believe that understanding why a solution works is much more important than simply memorizing. Earning my master's degree in education and becoming a teacher was my mid-life crisis. Before that, I worked in industry as a chemical engineer and then a project manager for many years after earning my Bachelor of Science at Cornell University. While I tutor a range of subjects, my favorites are chemistry and physics because I think that they are the most interesting! However, I also help students with math and algebra because a solid foundation in these is critical for success in science.
