I am a recent graduate of Duke University in Durham, NC where I obtained my Bachelor's of Science degree in Mathematics and Economics with a concentration in Finance and a French minor. I am originally from Rock Hill, SC, but I am a new Financial Analyst at IBM in Armonk, NY. I was a Calculus I and II tutor through the Academic Resource Center at Duke for two years, and I developed much experience in this role. I learned that in order to be an effective tutor, the I must not only teach the materials learned in a clear manner, but must also be able to teach beneficial study habits for the student to apply throughout his or her coursework.I am a very analytic person with a diverse learning background. I have learned many disciplines, and thus I am a tutor for a wide range of subjects in Mathematics, Economics, and French up to the level of French II. Math has been a passion of mine since I was able to count, and my interest my other subjects of knowledge have developed over the years.Outside of academics, I am a musician. I have played percussion from sixth grade and throughout college, and I hope to continue this passion in a more informal setting. I played snare drum on the drumline throughout high school and college, and that was a major highlight of my educational experience. I also enjoy arts and crafts, running, and exploring New York City.

I am a graduate of Duke University with a dual Bachelor of Science degree in Biomedical Engineering and Economics. I started tutoring in high school, working with Spanish-speaking ESL students in their native language as volunteer service. Due to my exceptional academic performance, family friends and members of my local church would often ask me to tutor their children, a request I would grant as much as my schedule allowed. My professional experience with tutoring only began in college, when I was hired as a teaching assistant for the Duke TIP summer program. After graduation, I worked for an international test prep company for two years. In addition to teaching classes on the SAT, ACT, and SAT II Subject Tests, I also provided private tutoring services in high school-level math, statistics, and physics.

I am a rising senior at Duke University who is Pre Med and majoring in Asian and Middle Eastern Studies. I was born and raised in Miami FL and went to public school until college (Sunset Elementary, GW Carver Middle and Coral Reef Senior High for those from Miami). I decided to start tutoring because I would not be on this path had I not had good teachers supporting me along the way. For that reason I want to be able to help others achieve their goals without academics being a huge hurdle.I have a broad set of interests but, most of them tend to be on the geekier side. For instance, I love playing video games, Dungeons and Dragons and board games with my friends. I also play tennis and soccer regularly and played soccer with an intramural team last year. Otherwise, I love to read for fun, in addition to the occasional academic article on American or Japanese culture.When I tutor I am always energetic, passionate and try to get my students as excited as I am. I am capable in a variety of fields but in particular l am very interested in language and culture. I am a native Spanish speaker and I have been studying Japanese since I entered college. I hope to be open and easily accessible for all of my students needs whether it be an extra session or a question that I can answer over text.

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.

Hey, I'm John, and I'm currently a rising junior at Duke University studying Economics and Political Science. I scored a 1570 (800 math, 770 EBRW) on my SAT, and have helped numerous personal friends and family friends improve their SAT scores through personalized tutoring. All of my students have scored above a 1450, and one student I worked with jumped from 1140 to 1550 in three months (a 410-point increase). Whatever your starting point, I focus on finding exactly where you're losing points and building a plan around those specific gaps. Outside of tutoring, I spent last summer as an investment banking summer analyst at Lazard, and I'm an incoming 2027 summer business analyst at McKinsey & Company in New York City.

I am enthusiastic about empowering each student to reach his or her full academic potential!

Hello, I am a Duke University graduate with a Bachelors degree in Psychology. I have experience tutoring all levels of Spanish language, all sections of the SAT, as well as algebra, pre algebra, geometry, and pre-calculus! I love kids & I have a very flexible schedule and a lot of patience! Let me help you :)

Those who know how can only follow those who know why - Andrew D. Jones, Sr. (My Dad)In addition to showing students how to solve a problem, I can give them an understanding of mathematics so that they can successfully create the steps to solve a problem that they have never seen before. I have successfully worked with students who came to college unable to add fractions and enabled them to graduate with engineering degrees.Everyone learns differently. I strive to identify the learning style that works for each student and build success from their platform.I hold the following degrees:Doctor of Philosophy in Applied Mathematics, Brown UniversityMaster of Science in Mechanical Engineering, Brown UniversityMaster of Arts in Pure Mathematics, Duke UniversityMay 1992, Bachelor of Arts in Physics, Duke UniversityBachelor of Science in Mathematics, Cleveland State UniversityMinor in Chemistry and Philosophy, Cleveland State UniversityI have more than 30 years of tutoring and teaching experience.I can bring examples and applications from physics, chemistry and engineering.I have written a book on Mathematical Structure.I love physics and I can tutor at the freshman and sophomore level.Contact me if:The approaches to math or physics that have been presented to you don't fit your learning styleorYou want go gain an understanding of mathematics that is unmatched anywhere.

My teaching philosophy is centered on making learning personalized, engaging, and confidence-building. I believe every student learns differently, so I adapt my approach to their individual needs while encouraging curiosity, critical thinking, and independent problem-solving. I graduated from Duke University with a degree in Cultural Anthropology and obtaining a Master's of International Affairs at Columbia University's School of International and Public Affairs.

I have been very fortunate when it comes to learning because I have always found it enjoyable. Not just academic learning but new experiences in general. Growing up I loved school, but it was not until I got to college that I realized how truly lucky I had been in my previous years to have had my dad as my personal tutor. Any time I had a question he was able to help me. I had taken his presence for granted and it was not until I was in college that I realized how good I had it back home. When I got to college I was of the mindset that I knew how to study and that school was the one thing that I did well. It was a severe wake-up call after my first organic chemistry midterm to realize that I needed help studying. My study techniques were not working for me anymore. I sought out my school's tutoring service and it was the single best decision I made during my academic career. Learning from my peers was very eye opening. I realized that we do not all learn the same way and I found that the way in which my professor would explain a concept was not always how it made sense to me. This did not mean I was not going to understand it just meant I needed to find a new perspective. All it would take was a different analogy or a different example problem for said concept to click with me. It was then that I realized that I wanted to be the person that helped someone else understand. I wanted to be someone's resource so that they could continue to pursue their academic goals with the best outcome possible because learning does not follow a strict formula, it is not linear, and I think that schools do not always do a good job of translating that to students.I think I will be a great tutor because I have been on both sides of the coin. I know what it takes to be a good tutor and have had success with my students in the past. I have learned that teaching effectively only happens when the instructor takes the time to learn how the tutee learns, whether it be visually or by hearing it said to them or even by writing it down. All of which are valid forms of understanding and processing information, but are not always the way that the material is taught in class. Tutoring gives me the opportunity to personalize the teaching so that it fits the individual's needs leading to more efficient and effective learning. I plan to develop my student's entire approach to problem solving. This way what they learn has multiple applications and is not subject specific. I will construct a personalized algorithm that they can apply to studying as well as daily homework problems. I believe that effective learning can be taught and developed and with hard work and discipline it can become second nature.

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.

I have been tutoring Spanish for over 15 years, from Beginner through Advanced, including AP and college-level. I am patient, reliable, and good at simplifying and explaining complex ideas. I love teaching and helping people to learn. I graduated with a degree in Spanish from Duke University and also hold a master's in International Relations from NYU.

I have a Ph.d in economics from Florida International University. I also have a masters in economics from Duke University and a B.S. from American University. I have taught economics in colleges and universities for over 20 years concentrating on principles courses which includes all AP econ. courses. I love economics and find it fascinating as every time a decision is made it involves economics and that includes decision on who you date and marry and where you live. When not teaching I love to read. I read a lot of non fiction from authors like Steven Pinker or Malcolm Gladwell. I am also involved in making society more accessible to people who are disabled.

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 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.

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.

I'm a junior at Duke University majoring in biomedical engineering. I'm also pre-med, and plan to apply to medical schools next summer. I have a lot of experience tutoring, as I have worked as an instructor at Mathnasium and as an organic chemistry peer tutor at Duke. I would be really excited to help you prepare for the MCAT, because I understand how difficult this exam can be and I know how important this exam is to your aspirations of becoming a doctor.

I would like to begin our work together going over homework problems that cause you difficulty. Togetherwe will determine your level of understanding and then build on that, uncovering any innate-but-hiddenknowledge and skills that you have. In my time as a tenured Associate Professor at Stetson University, Iwas available during 6 weekly office hours, and often more than that when necessary (I never turned astudent away). As a graduate student at Columbia University, my tutoring most often involved pre-medicalstudents who wanted to deepen and polish their chemistry skills. I love this type of one-on-one work withpre-health students because Organic Chemistry is typically the most difficult of the four pre-healthcourses; I count it as an honor to instruct future professional chemists, doctors, veterinarians, physicianassociates, and the like, and to prepare them for an intense exposure to biochemistry and other coursesin their respective professional schools. This is not to say that I only enjoy working with pre-healthstudents; I am happy to work with anyone who needs special help in organic chemistry.

I am from Munster, IN, and I am currently pursuing my Bachelor of Science in Neuroscience at Duke University. During my free time, I enjoy playing basketball, watching basketball, and reading about basketball. You can also catch me trying to stay musically inclined, solving a Rubik's Cube, or playing board games. I am passionate about service in various forms, and I wish to pursue a career in medicine in the future. Throughout my academic years, I have engaged myself in varying instructional opportunities, from teaching younger students how to play the harmonium to guiding my peers through various academic subjects. My own academic challenges motivate me to be the most effective tutor I can be and help me guide my students through potential pitfalls along their academic journeys. I strive to create an environment where healthy interaction and communication are fostered, as I believe these are the crucial to the student experience. I tutor AP Psychology, MCAT Physical Sciences, MCAT Biological Sciences, and MCAT Social and Behavioral Sciences. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you require assistance with any of these subjects.

I'm a graduate of Duke University where I received a JD and an MA in History. I received my undergraduate degree from Emory University also in History. My legal experience includes working as a summer law clerk for two appellate judges and as a summer associate at a large law firm in New York City. In college and in law school I tutored for a variety of subjects and enjoy working with students one-on-one to tackle and master difficult concepts. In my spare time, I enjoy taking in all that New York has to offer including biking in the park, cooking, and golfing.

Hi! My name is Michael, and I am so excited to help you work through your learning journey! I promise you're smarter than you think. Let's figure this out together!

My name is Anjali! I am a senior at Duke University studying global health and biology on the pre-medicine track. I take mostly stem classes at Duke, including biology, general chemistry, organic chemistry, and biochemistry. In high school, I particularly enjoyed taking classes like AP Chemistry, AP biology, AP psychology, anatomy and physiology, and I received an AP scholar with distinction award as a result. With this focus in primarily STEM classes, I am able to help with a range of science based subjects but specialize in organic chemistry a little more than the others. I have experience instructing at Mathnasium, being able to help with a range of math levels from elementary math to high school level math. Because of my time there, I know how important a good understanding of any material depends on an instructor's ability to convey and I want to be able to help others just as my favorite professors have helped me. In terms of teaching, I like to introduce the subject of interest in a broad way with more conceptualization before focusing on certain problems that are good for comprehension. I think problem solving and understanding one's train of thought is one of the most beneficial ways to succeed in science and math so step by step problem solving is something I like to spend time on. However, my method can easily be adjusted to fit a students individual needs. I also tend to tutor with my Ipad, so it is easy for me to teach in a visual manner. I want to be able to help my students as much as possible, so any additional suggestions or resources can easily be implemented. I would also love to assist any high schoolers with the college application process and writing essays, as it is something I like to do! I am easy to reach and will try my hardest to provide the fastest responses. Feel free to contact me with any questions or for a lesson!

I recently graduated from Duke University with a degree in Biology and a Minor in Chemistry. I excelled in my program with a Biology GPA of 3.77. I am extremely passionate about the material, and enjoy tutoring as a way of keeping Biology in my life. While in school I tutored for a student-run nonprofit called Chance tutoring, In this role I tutored middle and High school students in subjects ranging from statistics to SAT prep. I also taught two Chemistry 101 lab sections. In addition to my teaching experience I scored a 41 on the MCAT as well as a 1440 on the SAT(don't remember my writing score). I tutor MCAT because I understand that studying for the test can often seem like a steep mountain to climb. I understand the importance placed on doing well and how stressful it can be for prospective physicians. I am eager to share my test taking strategies as well as help students to learn and understand the material itself. I'll also be applying for medical school in the near future and am happy to share my experiences with any of my students.

I graduated Cum Laude from Duke University with a B.A. in Philosophy and a minor in Political Science. I'm currently working towards a J.D. at Columbia Law School. Before joining Varsity Tutors, I tutored the LSAT for a private company, both as a classroom teacher and in one-on-one tutorials. Building off that experience, I will be working for Varsity Tutors, helping people prepare for the LSAT as well as the SAT and the ACT. I have really enjoyed my experience assisting students in test preparation. In my experience, students first approach tests in an ad hoc fashion, and often with a fair bit of trepidation and hesitancy. I find it tremendously satisfying to help students conquer those initial hurdles and gain a feeling of mastery and confidence. I am patient, and I encourage my students to be patient as well. I also help students faceand in so doing, conquertheir fear of failure. We practice not fearing mistakes, but seeing them as opportunities to learn, hone skills, and grow more confident. One of my strongest attributes as a tutor is my ability to break down complex ideas into clear and accessible language. There is nothing more gratifying than working through a difficult concept with a student and know they truly understand it and can put it into practice. In my free time I enjoy reading. Some of my favorite authors are George R. R. Martin (the author A Game of Thrones) and Junot Diaz. I also enjoy spending time with friends, often playing competitive board games, such as The Settlers of Catan.

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'm a recent Duke grad with experience in Resume Writing, Statistics, Mandarin Chinese, Art History, and Math. I'll be available starting in July through August to tutor. In September, I'll be pursuing my Masters Degree in London at the Sotheby's Institute of Art.

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!

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 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.

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 am a Duke alum currently working toward a Master of Science in Narrative Medicine at Columbia University. As a pre-med student who majored in African and African American Studies, I have experience navigating a variety of disciplines. I also have experience tutoring in a number of subject areas, and have worked with diverse sets of students who have varied in age, grade level, and coursework. I began tutoring almost seven years ago working with disadvantaged students on mathematics. Since then, I have constructed curriculum for a program for middle school girls, and spent a semester training in preparation to be writing tutor at Duke’s writing center which serves graduate and undergraduate students across disciplines. I have a love for learning, and an appreciation for the richness that a interdisciplinary education provides. Helping others better understand their course materials, and, in turn, themselves as life-long learners, is a truly enriching experience.

I have a life-long love of learning, which I Iove to share with others. I have a B.A. in Psychology from the University of South Florida, and two master's degrees in religion from Duke University. I have thirteen years of full-time teaching experience. I can provide tutoring in English, Reading, History, Geography, Government and Politics, and Religious Studies. On the elementary and middle school levels, I can also provide tutoring in Math and Science. I believe that all students have the potential to learn, and I am excited to play a role in helping students achieve their learning potential.

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.

With a degree in Mathematics, a Master's in Engineering, and 36+ years at GE Aerospace as a design engineer, I bring real-world insight to tutoring general mathematics, algebra, geometry, and statistics. I help high school and college students understand not just how to solve problemsbut why they work. Will help you learn to break down complex concepts, improve your grades, and build lasting problem-solving skills.

I'm passionate about education and deeply committed to providing the highest levels of teaching excellence. A bit on my background: I am a Duke University graduate and recently completed my Masters in Advanced Math Education under the auspices of the NYC Teaching Fellows program. Ihave experience teaching various levels of math and understand how to convey concepts in practical and clear ways so students gain a real understanding of the material. My particular specialty is Math. My style of teaching--and my passion for the subject-- resulted in high test scores and the gratification of a lot of students.A passion for math is a contagious thing. My students learn not because they have to learn, but because they want to learn -- a huge difference.

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.

Hi! I'm a passionate and enthusiastic educator who loves helping students from elementary through college grow and succeed. I've taught all subjects as a substitute teacher at Durham Academy, but Spanish and French are my favorite! I also provided one-on-one tutoring with One Up Tutors, making learning languages and other subjects fun, engaging, and rewarding. Most recently, I worked as a teacher assistant at Duke University, helping students navigate ethics courses, organize their work, and understand complex ideas. I enjoy working with learners of all ages and abilities, and I'm all about creating highly effective lessons. Let's make learning exciting and help you reach your goals!

An appreciation of education is a prerequisite for any great tutor, and I believe that I have this appreciation. As a student at Duke University, I recognize that it is my teachers and tutors who played vital roles in my academic achievement. I would love to have the opportunity to help other students the same way my teachers and tutors did for me.One of my strengths that contributes to my success as a tutor is my ability to work with all kinds of people. Growing up in Portland, Oregon and going to college in Durham, North Carolina, I have not only been exposed to a diversity of people, but I have also had the chance to work as part of a team in many different settings. From helping my peers with problem sets in my biochemistry class to conducting spelling and geography bees as a volunteer with the North South Foundation, I have had many opportunities to work with others in an academic setting.Perhaps it is these previous experiences that most significantly contribute to my ability to be an effective tutor. I currently volunteer as a tutor with America Reads & Counts in Durham (ARAC), and through this program, I work with students in the Durham community to help them get the most out of their education. I usually help my students with their homework, and my experience as a tutor with ARAC has taught me valuable lessons about communication and empathy that I believe have shaped my ability to be a successful tutor.
