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.

When I began college, I remember struggling with tests and with time management. Being a premedical student from the very beginning meant that I was forced to learn very quickly how to overcome these challenges. My attempts to become a successful student were filled with perseverance, which became the theme of my professional endeavors. After working extremely hard to be accepted into my top choice medical school at Duke University, I again found myself in a situation where I felt under prepared and lost. Through much work and research about study skills, proper test preparation, and test taking strategies, I eventually have reached a level where I am comfortable assessing my own test readiness and how to best strengthen my academic weaknesses. I believe that through my own personal experiences, I have become a stronger life-long learner and I plan to use these skills throughout my career as I plan to stay in academic medicine to further the field of medical education.

I am a current undergraduate student at Duke University seeking a major in neuroscience and a possible minor in literature or chemistry. I have been tutoring higher level courses since the beginning of high school, and although I tutor in a variety of subjects, I specialize in writing, English, and essay editing (especially IB Extended Essays or college essays). I also help students with standardized testing, particularly in the SAT Reading portion of the exam. My passion for tutoring comes from my love of learning and helping others learn, and in my free time I enjoy painting, poetry, and fashion design.

I am a graduate of Emory University, where I was an Emory Faculty Scholar and academics tutor who double-majored in Economics and Psychology, and am also a current MBA graduate student at Duke University (on academic scholarship). I have several years experience tutoring across a variety of subjects and also 6+ years of experience as a recruiter (and 2+ years as Director of Recruitment). I also provide freelance career coaching and resume services when I am not tutoring or immersing myself in learning. Ultimately, I am passionate about helping my students find sustainable ways to learn from, succeed in, and get the most from their classes....even the ones that are most frustrating and that challenge them the most. Let's work together to achieve your/your child's academic goals and have some fun in the process! (Learning and fun should go hand in hand, after all).Specialty areas include: Math (Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1 &2, Statistics), Introductory Economics (Micro, Macro), GMAT (Verbal, Quant, Writing), SAT Verbal/Writing, Writing, English (all grade Levels up to AP/College), Reading Comprehension Psychology, Networking, Study Skills & Organization, Business

I am an incoming first-year medical student with a deep passion for the human body and mind. As a student who thrived with tutoring, I love teaching students how to think about problems and answer tough questions.

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 sophomore at Duke University with a strong academic background and a passion for helping students build both confidence and mastery in challenging subjects. Having recently completed AP coursework myself, I understand not only the content but also the strategies needed to succeed under time pressure, particularly on exams and free-response questions. My approach to tutoring is highly structured but adaptable. I focus on breaking down complex concepts into clear, manageable steps while reinforcing patterns that help students recognize how to approach different types of questions. I also emphasize active learningworking through problems together, identifying mistakes, and developing efficient study methods that students can apply independently. In addition to content review, I help students improve test-taking skills, including time management, question interpretation, and organization of written responses. I aim to create a supportive environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and engaging with the material at a deeper level. I am reliable, responsive, and committed to meeting students where they are, whether they need ongoing support or targeted help before an exam. My goal is not only to improve grades but to help students feel more confident and capable in their academic work.

As a passionate educator with a Bachelor's degree in Chemistry from Duke University, I have over 5 years of tutoring experience across diverse age groups, from young children to adult learners. My specialties include AP English Language and Composition, Conversational Spanish, and GED preparation, where I focus on tailoring lessons to meet each student's unique learning style and goals. I believe that teaching is a privilege, and I strive to create a supportive and engaging learning environment. My approach involves using relatable examples and personalized materials, which I find particularly effective for students facing academic challenges. I am excited to help students not only succeed academically but also expand their horizons through language learning and critical thinking.

I am a rising junior at Duke University pursuing a Bachelor’s degree in Public Policy Studies. Over the course of my studies, I have developed an extreme interest in education policy. I’ve had the great opportunity to work with the BOOST program at Duke University to use science and technology to inspire economically challenged and underrepresented students in Durham’s public schools. Although I am capable of tutoring a wide variety of subjects, I am most passionate about English and writing. In addition to my major, I’m pursuing minors in English and History, for I consider the arts and humanities to be a crucial part of a holistic and fun education. I’m a kind and easygoing person who relates well to others. In addition to being a tutor for students, I plan on being a mentor; I plan on being someone that students can turn to for advice on admissions, college life, and more. At Duke, I’m an active member of many organizations, including social life, a cappella, and political clubs. In my free time, I enjoy reading, exercising, cooking, singing, and spending time with friends.
