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 went to the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign for college and studied biochemistry. I was interested in the fusion of chemistry and biology because I was lucky enough to have two incredible high school teachers in those subjects. I wanted to understand how cells talk to one another or take on unique identities within the body. These questions led me to study cell biology at Duke University where I earned a Masters in 2017. My experiences in grad school have caused me to value the clear communication of science, a skill I'm always trying to work on.I've left lab, for the time being, to focus on my other passion, rowing. I train full time with the US National Team and love being an elite athlete. I began rowing in college after I grew up swimming and playing other sports. I still love finding science in the real world and explaining it to my teammates or anyone else who will listen.

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 have always been passionate about tutoring students to help them succeed! I have over five years of tutoring experience in ACT prep, SAT prep, Economics, English, US History, etc.I am currently a senior at Duke University studying Public Policy and Economics. I will be entering the field of management consulting upon graduation.

BAs in art history and anthropology from Brown University.MPA (public admin) from Troy State University (while running an overseas program for NATO personnel).PhD in botany from Duke University.Gemology credentials from GIA.I write fiction and am interested in a MFA or MS in publishing. Always a student!I have tutored classroom (college) and online (HS) courses in math (e.g. algebra), botany, biology, physical, environmental, and life science.I also have experience with remedial English and ESL. In addition to science, I would like to tutor writing and English courses.Although I am progress driven, I also have a sense of humor. I love to laugh.I am interested in reading, writing, gems and minerals, nature, travel, and hiking. I love animals.

There's nothing quite like that moment when a student's face lights up with understanding. Whether it's finally grasping a challenging calculus concept, conquering chemistry equations, or crafting the perfect college essay, I've had the privilege of witnessing countless "aha!" moments throughout my tutoring journey. What drives me as an educator is understanding that learning isn't one-size-fits-all. Every student has unique strengths and learning styles. My role isn't just to teach content - it's to discover how each student learns best and build their confidence alongside their knowledge. Many students come to me feeling overwhelmed, but I help them see that math and science aren't mysterious - they're puzzles waiting to be solved. I provide comprehensive tutoring across all levels of high school mathematics - from foundational algebra through advanced calculus and statistics. In the sciences, I work with students in biology, chemistry, and physics, connecting classroom concepts to real-world applications that make learning engaging and memorable. For college preparation, I offer SAT and ACT test prep that focuses on both content mastery and strategic test-taking skills. I also provide essay editing and writing support throughout the college application process, helping students craft compelling narratives that authentically showcase their personality and aspirations. What sets my tutoring apart is my genuine investment in each student's success. I don't just help with homework - I help students develop critical thinking skills, study strategies, and the confidence to tackle new challenges independently. I maintain regular communication with parents and always hold high expectations because I know students are capable of meeting them. Ready to unlock your potential? Let's work together to achieve your academic goals - one concept, one problem, and one success at a time. When I'm not tutoring, you'll find me experimenting in the kitchen, creating my own recipes and perfecting everything from weeknight dinners to elaborate desserts. There's something incredibly satisfying about the precision of baking that mirrors the logical thinking I love about math and science. I'm also passionate about staying active - whether I'm out on a morning run, hitting the hiking trails, or sweating it out in group fitness classes at the gym. I'm actually looking forward to diving into CrossFit next, always up for a new challenge!

I am a senior at Duke University studying Economics and Public Policy. I am passionate about finding specific strategies that work for each individual student, drawing on my broad experience across math and the humanities.

I am a professionally trained tutor with over five years of tutoring experience. I am currently a medical student at Columbia University. I graduated with high distinction from Duke University, receiving the honors of Summa Cum Laude and Phi Beta Kappa. I majored in Biology with a concentration in Cell and Molecular Biology and a minor in Chemistry.In addition to tutoring math and science, I also greatly enjoy helping students with SAT prep and college essay writing. I worked as a writing tutor for undergraduates for several years and have received extensive professional training in this capacity.I personalize my sessions to match each student's unique learning style and needs. I am enthusiastic about empowering each student to reach his or her full academic potential!

Hi,I am Ankit Jajoo. I am enrolled in Duke University Class of 2022 studying neuroscience and computer science. STEM is my number one passion, while history is my number one interest. Humanities and STEM not only coexist, but work together often in life. While STEM provides the foundation for the future, humanities contributes to how it is used to advance humanity as a whole. I love biology, chemistry, and computers. It is so cool to see how all these tiny minute parts of the world interact to create you, me, and everything we touch. On the other hand, history is cool to see how societies interacted to create the present world. The past is never separate from us, but always influencing everything from the various countries to cities to the tiny villages all over the world. The world is a combination of all of this and it is my passion to understand the world. Other than just about education and information, I love teaching other people about stuff. I enjoy teaching all my friends some stuff, in return they teach me other stuff. Contrary to popular opinion, teaching is a two way street. I've learned a tremendous amount from students and I hope they learned a similar amount from me. Tutoring students in a field I enjoy such as STEM or history is a dream come true.

I primarily tutor students preparing for the Reading and Writing portion of the SAT, but I also have a background and experience in biology, law, technology, and creative writing. I got my bachelor's degree from Duke University and I have a JD from Boston College. I chose to focus on the SAT as I know how stressful standardized tests can be, especially as they're a factor in the high-stakes world of college admissions. Regardless of the subject, I adjust my tutoring approach to a student's individual personality and needs - just because a test may be standardized does not mean I use a "one-size-fits-all" approach to helping students! Outside of academia, I enjoy travel (I've been to 34 states and seven countries), fitness, cooking, gaming, EDM, and watching sports.

I am a third-year college student enrolled in a rigorous international program and I will graduate with two bachelor's degrees in 2023. One degree will be from Duke University and one will be from Duke Kunshan University in Kunshan, China. I received a full-tuition scholarship to attend Duke Kunshan University. I spent my freshman year studying in China, and I now live and study on Duke's campus in Durham, North Carolina. I have always been a strong student, with a current 3.94 GPA in college. I earned a 1510 on my SAT and am great at SAT tutoring as well as editing college application essays. I am also proficient in Spanish as a second language, and have experience tutoring Spanish language learners as well as Spanish-speaking English language learners. I have more than 3 years of tutoring experience working with children ages 7 up to adults. As a tutor, I consider myself knowledgable, motivated, and patient.

I am a PhD student at the University of Michigan, studying social psychology. Before this, I was at Duke University completing a BS in psychology as well as a MS in global health. My research combines the fields of global health and psychology by examining the effects of culture on self-related psychological processes. I hope to continue in academia to become a professor of psychology, as teaching is among my greatest passions.I offer tutoring services in SAT and GRE prep, as well as in grammar, writing, and essay editing. I also provide help with AP Lang, Lit, 2-D Studio Art, Music Theory, and Psychology. I believe that all tutors should be patient enough to listen to each student's unique needs, and flexible enough to respond accordingly. We all learn in different ways, and it's my job to calibrate my teaching to your learning speed and style.
