Award-Winning Tutors from Duke University

I am a graduate of Duke University with a degree in Health Policy and Education Policy. While at Duke University I was a student athlete, participated in the leadership of several clubs and service groups; as well as, working as a Math and Reading tutor. After graduation I spent a year pursing a business venture allotted to me through the Elevator Pitch Competition, my senior year of college, which I won in my category - Non-Profits. After that year, I joined the Teach for America Fellowship, where I fell in love with teaching. The Teach for America Fellowship is 2 years; however, after my first year due to the recognition and growth in my classroom I was invited to start a school. I spent 2 years at that school prior to getting married and moving to California, a few months ago, with my amazing, aerospace loving, husband.Moving out here I knew I didn't want to go back into the classroom, but I wanted to find ways to support teachers and students, as they work toward reaching their goals. I decided to jump back into tutoring. Tutoring allows me to work with students whose needs aren't being met fully in the classroom and the supplement the handwork that each teacher puts into the education plans of their students. I have been tutoring all types of students from Special Needs to Gifted for 9 years. I have a ton of strategies for a variety of subjects and have seen my students grow leaps and bounds in confidence, skill, and ability.I love the challenge of uncovering a child's weaknesses, creating the opportunity for them to discover what they are capable of, and the excitement of seeing their faces light up once they realize, they can do it. Nothing brings me more joy then seeing children walk in the fullness of their potential.

I am a student at Duke University pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Neuroscience with Chemistry and German minors. On campus I am involved in the Bilbo lab, which focuses on neuroimmune interactions in abnormal brain development. I am very passionate about helping others enjoy and learn about various fields in STEM.My role as a tutor is to help students navigate any difficulty they may have in the classroom. I strive to help students reach their academic potentials and gain confidence in their ability in the classroom. As a current undergraduate student, I can assist students in finding balance between achieving their academic goals and extracurricular activities. In my free time, I enjoy running, cooking, and cycling.

I am a recent graduate of Duke University, with a Master of Science degree in Global Health. I spent the six previous years working for Novartis as a Head of Communications in the Vaccines and Diagnostics division. I joined Novartis after completing my undergraduate degree with honors in English language and literature from Westmont College in Santa Barbara, California.I can help both students and professionals with all ranges of English writing and reading skills, including grammar, vocabulary, reading comprehension and retention, English as a second language, essay writing and editing, higher level literature analysis, thesis writing and editing, business writing, and presentation and public speaking skills.I have taught and tutored students from elementary school through the graduate and professional levels. I have served as a professor's assistant in British Literature and Dramatic Arts classes, and have conducted caregiver classes on the Picture-Exchange Communication System for children with speech disorders.I have also tutored on the tools needed to becoming an exceptional student, including organizational skills, memorization and mnemonic devices, study-to-the-test techniques, responsible speed reading, and time management.My philosophy toward tutoring hinges on two primary goals: 1) to tutor in a way that not only meets the student's academic goals in the near-term, but also imparts a methodology that will carry the student toward future and continued success, and 2) to foster self-motivation in a student by making English fun!I love sharing my passion for language and literature with others, especially in helping overcome the "fear of the blank page" and other anxieties. Its never too late to learn to write well, to enjoy reading, or to apply these important skills to achieve your academic and professional goals.Personally, I love the time to enjoy a good book, but I also love traveling, attempting challenging recipes, kayaking, hiking, and taking my dog Cali to the beach.

I am a current graduate student at Duke University in the Cellular and Molecular Biology Program, and I am a graduate of Assumption College with a Bachelor of Arts in Biotechnology and a minor in Chemistry. I was a tutor for the past three years at Assumption College. Working with students one-on-one and leading large group reviews has developed my ability to explain complex material to students in a simple and understandable manner. I have always enjoyed explaining material to others, and I find it satisfying when the students finally understand the concepts. I learned that in science it is crucial to be able to articulate concepts to people of diverse backgrounds. I also believe that it is essential to pass my knowledge and passion to others so they can make their own contribution to the scientific community. In my spare time I enjoy being active. I usually swim, run, and attend boxing classes.

I'm excited to help students tackle the most frustrating parts of standardized exams. I understand how lengthy and confusing test preparation can be, and I work with each student to break difficult concepts and questions into manageable steps. Together, we'll identify what's holding you back, find strategies that work for you, and build the confidence you need to succeed.

I majored in chemistry and can tutor general chemistry, organic chemistry, and biochemistry. I graduated with a Bachelor's degree in Chemistry from Duke University

I'm Rob! I graduated from Duke University in 2016 with a double major in Electrical and Computer Engineering and Economics. I've been a math teacher in the DOE for the last 2 years and have a Master's of Arts in Teaching. I specialize in high school math and test prep for the ACT, SAT, and GRE.As a math teacher for the last 2 years, I've found that students often aren't given enough time in the classroom to fully grasp new concepts before moving on to new material. This often leads to "gaps" in their knowledge, which are hard to fill without providing them with 1-on-1 help. This is how I can benefit my students the most, by providing the the 1-on-1 attention they need. When I start with a new student, I first work to identify the gaps in their knowledge, and then methodically fill in those gaps to help them reach a stronger conceptual understanding.I want to help my students as much as possible. As part of my approach, I like to understand my students' long term academic or professional goals to make sure I'm working with them in a way that's most beneficial to those goals.I live in Prospect Heights, Brooklyn. I'm can do remote sessions or in-person. Please contact me if you would like to set up a free 15 minute consultation!

I have dedicated a significant amount of time teaching all sorts of subjects ranging from tennis to ACT to dance to finance. I currently work for Kaplan teaching ACT, SAT, and MCAT. I have worked as a teaching assistant for computer science and even have taught finance to high school students. I love teaching because I believe I can connect well with the students. I am able to create short-cuts, tricks, and other useful methods that students love because I, myself, am a student. Therefore, I can relate well with all my students. Since my experiences range far and wide, I am confident that I can provide the best services as a tutor in my subject areas.Besides tutoring, I love to dance, play tennis, draw, and just have fun in general. I think of myself as the jokester of my friends group, so I'll always try to put a smile on your face!

As a graduate of Duke University with a B.S. in Biology, I knew I wanted to pursue academia. I continued my studies with a M.S. in Marine Biology at Nova Southeastern University, where I solidified my passion for research and teaching others. Now I'm hoping to help my students get as excited about learning as I always have been! My most recent teaching experience has been with a local marine biology summer camp, where I do my best to get the kids stoked about biology, ecology, environmental science, and conservation. While I feel most passionate about marine biology, I am also qualified to tutor a variety of different subjects. I have taken the SAT 11 different times, and feel very confident teaching standardized test subjects! For me, tutoring is about breaking down difficult subjects into bite-sized pieces for my students to understand. My motto is "baby steps," and I love finding new and personalized ways to make learning fun for my students. Outside of academia I can be found exercising, singing, playing the ukulele, lounging on the beach, or finding new and exciting ways to annoy my cat Mozart.

As a dedicated tutor pursuing a Bachelor's in Biomedical Engineering from Duke University, I have over 5 years of experience in helping students excel in mathematics, including subjects like Algebra, Calculus, and Differential Equations. My teaching approach centers on fostering a supportive learning environment where students feel encouraged to explore concepts at their own pace. I believe that every student has the potential to succeed, and I strive to connect with each learner by tailoring my methods to their unique needs and learning styles. My passion for tutoring stems from witnessing my students' growth and confidence as they overcome challenges in math. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy being active and spending time with friends.

I recently graduated from Duke University with a degree in biomedical engineering. I really enjoy math and science and I am eager to help other students in related subjects. In my free time, I like to run, play basketball, spend time at the shore, and cook.While I was a student at Duke, I worked as a student manager for the Women's Basketball team. I also completed a couple years of research in the Human Movement Performance Lab where I analyzed patient's walking patterns both pre- and post- total ankle replacement surgery.

I recently graduated with a master's degree in Urban Education Policy from Brown University after studying public policy as an undergraduate at Duke University. I hope to pursue a career in education policy in the future, but at present I want to be the best tutor that I can be. Given my passionate about education policy, I understand the important role that standardized tests play in allowing students to maximize their own educational potential. My goal as a tutor is to help each student that I work with to perform to the best of their abilities on the standardized test that they are preparing to take. I hope that I can play a part in helping my students to attend the higher education institution of their dreams, and I will work as hard as I need to in order to achieve this. I look forward to meeting and working with some exceptional students in my time with Varsity Tutors.

I am a recent magna cum laude graduate of Duke University and a full-time educator in North Carolina. I have a passion for helping young people figure things out and have experience writing professionally.

Hello there! I'm a physician by training and educator with a background in psychology and public health. I earned my B.A. in Psychology from Columbia University and received my M.D. from Duke University School of Medicine. Across clinical training, research, and teaching, I've learned that confidence grows when students feel understood, not rushed. My tutoring style is structured, supportive, and practical. I like to start by identifying what's actually getting in the way (content gaps, test strategy, organization, or anxiety), then build a clear plan with small, doable steps and lots of practice. I aim for sessions that feel calm, focused, and encouraging, with measurable progress each time. Whether you're strengthening fundamentals, preparing for an exam, or building study habits that finally stick, I'll meet you where you are and help you move forward!

As much as I see myself as a qualified, knowledgeable tutor, I think it's just as important for me to motivate, lead, inspire, and mentor my students. Do you have test anxiety? Math anxiety, specifically? Is it difficult for you to create, organize, and execute a study plan? Or do you simply want straightforward, content-based prep and study help? In either case, I'm excited to help you achieve your academic and standardized test goals.My academic credentials consist of a BA in Political Science and German from the University of Rhode Island, and a Master's degree in Environmental Management from Duke University. I speak German and Spanish. I'm confident tutoring several standardized tests, including SSAT, ISEE, SAT, ACT, and GRE.

In 2019 I graduated from Duke University with a BA in Mathematics and a license to teach Secondary Math in the state of North Carolina. This year I will be in Memphis TN working as a Student Success coach with middle schoolers in a local public school. I have extensive experience teaching and tutoring math for middle and high school students at all levels. I have a great understanding of the subject, as well as how it progresses and is measured in schools. Having completed a student teaching term, I am familiar with learners of all shapes and sizes and can accomodate my style of teaching to best suit every student!

Hi! My name is Maggie, and I have been tutoring since high school. I graduated Cum Laude from Duke University in just 3 years, and I graduated with a Distinction Thesis. I have a psychology major and a certificate in Human Development. Since graduation, I have been working in an elementary school as a special education paraprofessional. This job was exciting to me because I was able to focus on the special needs children (ADHD, ASD, Down Syndrome, EBD), but I also got to teach some classes and help the general education students. The job was perfect for me!I recently moved to St. Paul, and I now want to become a full time tutor. What I really love about tutoring is the relationship that is formed between student and tutor. I like to really get to know a student so I can learn how to help him or her best. It is important to me that a student is able to enjoy his or her work. That will make learning more fun, and it will make the student more successful. I am so excited for the opportunity to tutor your child! I look forward to helping him or her achieve and find confidence in abilities and intelligence.

Through my experiences working with students of all ages, I developed a personalized approach for each individual. Students benefit the most when they hone skills both for the assignment at hand, and for long term success in efficient studying and improved reasoning. I have two years of experience as a full time professional in education, as a middle school teacher and a coordinator for an afterschool program. I tutored students throughout high school and college, in volunteer and private settings. I am a graduate of Duke University with a Bachelor of Arts in Latin American History. I recently received my Juris Doctor degree from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and began my career as an attorney. I am passionate about continuing my work in education through tutoring. I enjoy tutoring many subjects, particularly History, SAT Reading and Writing, College Essays, and Spanish. I love assisting students in implementing simple but effective changes in their preparation for Standardized Tests that show immediate results. I find this motivates students to continue through struggles in their educational pursuits. When I am not working, I enjoy yoga, running, cooking, traveling and playing the cello.

I am a doctoral candidate in Clinical Psychology at Duke University. My job requires excellent mathematics, analytic, and writing skills, which are also my favorite subjects to teach. I have experience teaching kids in elementary, middle, and high school, as well as college-aged students. My particular expertise is in managing attention and assisting with executive functioning (e.g., time management and planning).

I graduated from Duke with double majors in Biology and Spanish and a minor in Chemistry. I have extensive experience working with children of all ages, in both childcare and tutoring. In high school, I launched a book club in a local elementary school, where I helped tutor elementary school students in reading comprehension. I also tutored a middle school student in Spanish and helped improve his knowledge of vocabulary and grammar. Since coming to college, I've continued to help elementary school students with reading, writing, and math.

I am a motivated, eager, curious individual with a passion for helping others learn. I bring a diverse range of experiences with over 4 years of tutoring experience, including ACT, SAT, PSAT tutoring, college essay editing. I have also worked for 2 years with America Read America Counts, and spent summer of 2016 tutoring 12-18 year old girls in Cusco, Peru.

A professional greatly passionate about learning, education, and teaching. Studied at Duke University and traveled the world! I enjoy helping others learn and achieve their academic goals. I love meeting new people and have a friendly, down-to-earth personality.

I am a graduate of Duke University. I received my Bachelor of Science in Economics with a concentration on Finance. I am passionate about helping students with Math and Science subjects, and I would love to help students on the Math section of the SAT as well as the SAT II Math subject tests. I don't like to think of learning as a boring experience where one just memorizes facts but rather a fun discovery of new ideas and concepts.

I have taught high school mathematics for the past 7 years and have loved every minute of it. Throughout those seven years I earned my second Masters in Math Education and began pursuing my PhD in the field. I have had the pleasure of being nominated as a honor teacher five times by the top ten students during various years. I am a teacher leader in my community and I enjoy sharing the wealth of knowledge.

I received my PhD in Microbiology from Northwestern University in 2025 and my Bachelor's in Biology from Duke University in 2017. I have a passion for connecting driven students with the resources they need to succeed. I am based in Chicago.

My tutoring career formally began six years ago--since then, I have been gradually developing my own personalized collection of tips and tools for effective learning in a large range of disciplines.My journey began in high school as a tutor for a handful of middle school students struggling with mathematics. The private sessions instilled within me an appreciation for the power of conceptual connections. I found that each individual student's network of knowledge was vastly different, and so the connections they drew in order to arrive at solutions differed as well. It became my goal and pleasure to guide these students along their own intellectual pathways towards a better understanding.During my undergraduate career at the University of Texas at Dallas, I continued to fortify this skill. Employed by the on-campus Student Success Center as both a Peer Tutor and Supplemental Instruction Leader, I led sessions for advanced engineering mathematics, statics and dynamics, mechanics of materials, physics, and calculus. Through these programs, I was introduced to new methods for helping students attain their own understanding of course materials with only minimal guidance from myself. These methods relied upon the fact that, oftentimes, students already possess the foundational knowledge to arrive at correct conclusions--they simply lack the confidence and/or the roadmaps to get there. That's where I come in.After finishing my B.S. in Mechanical Engineering last May, I moved back to the Raleigh-Durham area to continue my education at Duke University for an M.S. in Mechanical Engineering. As aforementioned, much of my tutoring experience has been in STEM fields (calculus, physics, chemistry, etc.)--but as a student who has prepared for, agonized over, and ultimately suffered through the SAT and GRE standardized tests, I would love to be able to impart my own knowledge and strategies for these as well.If it's nice out and I'm not tutoring or buried in my textbooks, you will either find me rock climbing at the Triangle Rock Club, playing Ultimate Frisbee, working on my car, or enjoying the great outdoors (beaches, mountains, forests--you name it, I love it). On rainy weekends I enjoy tinkering with computers and old electronics, playing Pokemon, or picking at my guitar.

I am a freshman at Duke University in the Pratt School of Engineering. I plan on majoring in Civil or Environmental Engineering, as well as Economics. While I am qualified to tutor a range of subjects from math and science to ACT prep, I get the most excited when working on improving a student's writing because it is such a beautiful process. Sparking students' curiosity and excitement is the most rewarding part of tutoring, and I make it my mission to achieve that with all students I work with. In my free time, I am involved in a variety of groups on campus such as the triathlon club, FEMMES (a female-oriented STEM tutoring club), and The Chronicle, which is Duke's student newspaper. I also enjoy reading, running and baking all sorts of delicious delicacies.

I love to help students realize their potential. I believe all children and teenagers can perform well in school if given proper support and encouragement from caring adults. Learning should be enjoyable, and not be made to seem like a chore. I incorporate fun and games into my tutoring activities whenever possible.I received excellent grades on all papers written at Duke University (master's degree) and Emory & Henry College (B.A.), and I can help high school and college students learn to write better papers. I am proficient at US History and can help an AP US History student towards a 4 or 5 on his or her exam. My concentration for both of my post-high school degrees was religion, and I would love to tutor students who are taking religion courses. My favorite hobby is reading, and I believe it is important to instill an enjoyment of reading in students as early as possible. I can help young people who need extra support to become better readers.I am reliable, easy to get along with, and I love kids! I work with children and teenagers in my primary job, and I am comfortable around kids of all ages. I have two daughters of my own so I know what it is like for parents to want the best for their children. I do what it takes to tutor students to better grades, confidence in a subject, and a sense of self-reliance.

I am a graduate of Dartmouth College where I majored in History. I also received my M.Ed. from Boston College so that I could become a middle school and high school social studies teacher. Currently, I am working concurrently on my JD (at Duke University) and my Ph.D. in Education (at Boston College) and hope to one day combine the two degrees by working in policy. I have tutored or been in the education field my entire life and love it when I am able to help a scholar learn something new. I love to tutor a broad range of subjects but primarily focus on History and English. I particularly love working with scholars on their college essays and finding ways to get their unique voice and experience into writing. Education is crucial and it is important to work with scholars so that they realize the vast amount of knowledge there is in the world. In my free time, I love putting together puzzles, playing Xbox, or cheering on the Dallas Cowboys!

I earned my Bachelor of Arts in Public Policy with a minor in Education from Duke University and my Elementary Teaching Certification from Johns Hopkins University. My academic interests lie in education policy and educational psychology, the intersection of how we learn and how the systems around us shape that learning. I nurtured my passion for classroom teaching while teaching fourth grade in Baltimore from 2020 to 2022, first virtually during the height of the pandemic and then in person. My students were curious, hilarious, and resilient, and they taught me that learning works best when it feels meaningful and joyful. Before teaching, I tutored in high school and college, worked in Duke's Identity and Diversity Lab studying how children make meaning of human differences, and worked as a full-time nanny, caring for twin infant boys. I enjoy tutoring many subjects, most notably English, Social Studies, and History. I love helping students see the patterns that connect the past to the present, and gain confidence putting their own ideas into words. My approach is structured but flexible: I set clear goals, then create space for curiosity, creativity, and discovery. Outside of tutoring, I love exploring new restaurants, reading fiction, and traveling to visit my family and friends.

Hi! My name is Nima, and I am a rising college sophomore who will be attending Duke University on a full merit scholarship in the fall. I love to run cross country and play the viola, as well as tutoring students in a whole variety of subjects! Feel free to message me!

I am rising junior at Duke University studying biomedical engineering and mathematics. Since junior year of high school I have really enjoyed tutoring students. I have been fortunate to tutor students of many ages, ranging from freshman in high school to juniors in college. I am most passionate about mathematics, engineering, and anything STEM essentially. I really believe that the reason students don't like these subjects is because they have had a rough initial experience studying these topics. I believe that with the right guidance and tutoring, everyone can appreciate STEM and understand why it is so crucial in our daily lives. In my free time, I love to run, play basketball, and watch movies.

I Graduated with Distinction with a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and minors in Global Health and Chemistry from Duke University. I am now a graduate student studying Psychology, with a specialization in child psychology. I am comfortable working with students of all ages. I have extensive experience tutoring and volunteering with kids, especially those in elementary and middle school, both here and in India. I also have experience tutoring adult English Language Learners. I consider myself to be strongest in English (literature, critical reading and writing, grammar/spelling), K-12 Mathematics, History, Spanish, and Psychology. I am also comfortable supporting in college-level essay writing and standardized test preparation including SAT, ACT, GRE, several AP Examinations, and MCAT. I consider myself to be kind, empathetic, culturally-sensitive, and patient, holding a soft spot for working with young children. I like to make learning both fun and meaningful. I value education deeply as a way of shaping our worldview and empowering us with the confidence to reach new horizons! In my free time, I like to dance, read books, cook, travel, and spend time with loved ones.

My philosophy of education is that all children are unique and must have a stimulating educational environment where they can grow mentally, emotionally, and socially. It is my desire to find out how each student learns and create this type of atmosphere where students can meet their full potential while feeling good about themselves.

I received my Bachelor of Science in Biology from Duke University with a concentration in animal behavior. I enjoy Biology because it sheds light on who we are and where we are from, plus it is a great excuse to be outside. I have experience teaching people who struggle with English from teaching in Taiwan as well as tutoring SAT prep locally to immigrants. My strongest subjects are Math and Science. When I teach I try to use examples and explain some study methods I use to make learning faster. I also know a few tricks to help save time and make the standardized test taking process a little bit smoother. Right now I am working on getting my pilot licenses and when I have some free time I enjoy music, basketball and video games.

I love to learn and to help others learn, a pleasure I had for nearly forty years as a college instructor in writing and literature at The College of Wooster in Ohio. Although I taught many classes in these subjects, much of my teaching was done in one-on-one conferences on how to write for a variety of purposes: explanations, arguments, analyses, research, poetry and fiction. I worked with writers from those having basic difficulties to sophisticated seniors working on complex research papers or creative collections of stories and poems.My primary approach is first to try to understand you as a learner, to identify not just problems but also how you work best with a particular style, and to devise a way of learning that fits both you and the form of writing to be developed. Although a writer needs to understand the "rules," such as grammar, the goal is to discover how you can learn to use both the rules and your knowledge and creativity for your own purposes.In literature, my tutoring begins with an emphasis on comprehending the text, identifying patterns and themes, and finally coming to an analysis or interpretation that arises from this understanding and makes sense of as many aspects as possible. Literary interpretation is not a mysterious game, iibut a skill that can be learned and practiced by you with excellent results.In tutoring for tests, such as the GRE or SAT, my approach focuses on understanding the kinds of thinking the tests want to identify, the ways in which the questions try to identify them, and the best strategies for answering the kinds of questions asked. Importantly too, I help the you to recognize your past experiences with these questions--perhaps in other forms--as an important way of easing anxiety about the tests.I am a patient, understanding and experienced tutor, mentor and teacher. My basic belief is that people learn best from encouragement and practice that brings insight, and never from ridicule or harshness. I look forward to working with you to improve your skills in the subjects and goals you want to work on.

I am a current student at Duke University School of Medicine pursuing my MHS degree in Physician Assistant studies. I received my Bachelor of Science degree in Respiratory Care with which I practiced as a Respiratory Therapist with focus in Adult critical Care. I have several certifications and I am a certified clinical simulations instructor. While I tutor a broad range of courses, I am passionate about Algebra, biology, anatomy & physiology, Medical terminology, medicine, ACLS, BLS,NRP, Respiratory board exams prep and pharmacology.Assisting students through tutoring is a desire of mine. I believe that every student has what it takes to excel academically if given the right resources and attention they deserve.

I graduated summa cum laude from Duke University with a BSE in Biomedical Engineering, and I will be continuing my education this fall at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine. My interests in math and science led me to pursue an engineering major in college, but ultimately my passion for helping others steered me towards a career in the field of medicine. In my free time, you can most often find me hanging out with friends, playing basketball, working out, or eating pizza.One of my favorite methods of helping others is teaching. As an older brother, I have been teaching in some forms throughout most of my life. In high school, most of my teaching experience came from annual basketball camps that the varsity team would hold for elementary-age players. In college, I gained plenty of experience on the academic side of teaching, as I was a TA for an introductory computer programming class, a paid peer tutor for physics, and, for three years, the treasurer of a Duke-based high school tutoring organization. I am very invested in my students' success, and nothing makes me happier than helping them to finally grasp a difficult concept. I know that every student learns differently, so I always start my tutoring sessions by first trying to learn what the student's strengths and weaknesses are. After allowing them to work through and explain a few problems in front of me, I try to tailor an individualized teaching method to best suit each student's specific needs. While my methods may not be the perfect match for every student out there, I can promise that I will always be a patient, diligent, and understanding tutor, and I will be genuinely dedicated to helping each of my students achieve their goals.
