I am a recent graduate of Duke University, where I obtained a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics in 2014. I am primarily a math tutor but I also enjoy teaching chemistry and physics. Math was always my favorite subject in high school and I continued my love of math at Duke. I have also been a middle school and high school tutor throughout my time at Duke through the Program in Education. One of my crowning achievements at Duke was winning the DT Stallings Award, which is awarded to a Duke senior who has shown sustained and dedicated service to tutoring local school children. When I am tutoring a student, I prefer a very hands-on approach. I love working out problems with my students after working through an example problem completely. By working problems out with my students, I am able to help them if and when they get stuck. I hope to convey to every student the ability to think logically and persevere when things seem difficult.Outside of math and tutoring, I am a huge sports fan and novel reader. Since I graduated from Duke, I have a fierce love for all things Blue Devils and I really enjoyed watching Duke Basketball in Cameron Indoor Stadium. One of my favorite things to do is to read a novel while listening to my iPod.

Hello! My name is Julie and I graduated from Duke University with a double major in Neuroscience and French and a minor and Chemistry. I also took the MCAT this past spring and scored a 522. My subscore breakdowns were (131/131/129/131).I teach all sciences (biology, chemistry, anatomy, etc.), French, and MCAT prep. For French, I have been studying for 10 years and am completely fluent.Outside of tutoring, I enjoy running, yoga, and spending time with my friends. I am a Marshall Scholar and will begin graduate studies at the University of Cambridge in the fall.

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.

As a dedicated tutor, I bring a wealth of academic achievements and 3+ years of experience to the table. With scores of 36 on the ACT and 1550 on the SAT, coupled with my rigorous education at Duke University, where I earned a Bachelor of Science in Evolutionary Anthropology and Global Health with a minor in Chemistry, I understand the intricacies of standardized testing and higher education. My academic journey culminated in scoring in the 98th percentile on the MCAT and securing acceptance to over 7 medical schools, including the Emory University School of Medicine, where I currently pursue my M.D. These experiences equip me with the knowledge and insights to guide students toward their academic goals with confidence and success.

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 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 an analytically-driven in Duke University's Class of 2023 pursuing degrees in Mechanical Engineering and Economics. I have a thirst for knowledge in mainly the mathematics and sciences, and I thoroughly enjoy conveying my passions through tutoring. My experiences in student-tutoring began in High School where I tutored SAT, Mathematics, and Physics. My favorite subjects to tutor are SAT and ACT Math, Physics, Calculus at all levels, Algebra, and Statistics. One of the many reasons I enjoy tutoring is because I can utilize my effective communication skills to illustrate complex concepts to students in relatable and interesting ways.

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'm a recent college graduate (and future medical student) who's excited to meet you and help you reach your learning goals.I first became interested in tutoring when I struggled my freshman year at Duke University. Previously unchallenged, I had to work hard to teach myself difficult topics and relied heavily on the free tutoring available at my school to make it through.After that year, I worked in South Carolina at a nonprofit where I designed and taught curriculum for kids ages 5-18 years old and learned a lot about what it takes to be a teacher/tutor. I built and evaluated Reading and Math curricula and helped students develop confidence in a range of subjects from Math to Writing composition.I loved the experience and returned to Duke, where as soon as I finished my science requirements, I applied to be a peer tutor. From there, I gained three years of experience tutoring Organic Chemistry, Physics, and other science topics and proofreading others' essays on the side.I love building others' confidence and helping people master subjects that have given them trouble. I've been there, and I know that having a good tutor to guide you through can make a world of difference.

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!

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 am committed to each and every one of my tutees! I will teach to the best of my abilities; I will make learning fun, but efficient!

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 :)

I am a graduate of Duke University, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in Literature and Cultural Theory. I am currently completing my PhD in English Literature at the University of Virginia. My dissertation focuses on 20th Century U.S. Fiction, but I also have a strong interest in African-American literature, film studies, popular culture, and gender theory. At UVa, I have taught literature courses as well as first-year writing seminars, which have focused on topics including the American Dream, Gender and Sexuality, and Borders and Frontiers. My favorite things about teaching writing are working individually with students to help them brainstorm ideas and articulate their point of view in their clearest, strongest voice, and seeing their work become stronger across each draft they revise. When working with students in my literature classes at UVa and the North Carolina Governor's School, I especially enjoy helping students develop strategies for careful, critical reading. My years of teaching and tutoring have led me to the firm belief that literary analysis and clear writing are not mysterious talents that you either have or you don'tinstead, I believe anyone can become a better interpreter of literature and a better writer with practice and encouragement. In my free time, I enjoy walking my dog, trying out new recipes in the kitchen, going to art museums, and catching up on "Game of Thrones" or "Project Runway."

I am a writer and educator who is passionate about student learning. I have been a writing tutor at Duke's prestigious Thompson Writing Program where I assisted a wide variety of writing in the sciences and the humanities. I also created and led a summer workshop for public high school students to assist them in writing their college essay applications.

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.

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 love Math and Science. I am a Duke University graduate with a degree in Computer Science, where I also played football and am currently working on a Master's Degree in Cybersecurity. I have always loved math and science and problem solving and these subjects have always been easy for me. I know this is not the case with many people and I have been tutoring since high school. I used to volunteer the local elementary and middle school and also my peers. In college, I helped tutor teammates and family and friends. I was the go to person for math and science when someone needed help even friends siblings at home in different states. Every since I can remember I have always been good at math and enjoyed learning different levels. For tutoring, I have learned to adjust how I tutor based on the needs of the person because everyone learns math different. I currently have a full time job but in my spare time I like being outdoors, spending time with family and friends, and animals. My family has a couple cats and a few dogs and I love to go spend time there with them.

I graduated from Princeton University in May 2015 with my Bachelor's in Biology. In May 2016, I graduated from the Fuqua School of Business at Duke University with a Masters in management Studies. My education background is extremely diverse and promotes strong critical thinking and problem solving skills in various contexts.I began tutoring while a student at Princeton University. There, I tutored underclassmen while on campus as well as high school and middle school students from my hometown. I thoroughly enjoy tutoring individuals of all ages.At Princeton, I took two math courses, four Spanish courses, and a variety of science courses.My Masters degree program was all-encompassing and included courses on accounting, financial analysis, and corporate strategy.

I specialize in GRE, SAT, mechanical engineering, chemistry, and math.I am an undergraduate senior majoring in mechanical engineering and chemistry with a computer science minor at Duke University. I have 6+ years of tutoring experience from middle school to the college level. With a major GPA of 3.96/4.00 while overloading on classes, I have the experience to show you how to absorb the material quickly and effectively to make time for other classes/activities.In addition, I can help make studying be less of a chore! There are many studies that suggest a positive mindset best promotes learning and growth, and this is how I approach my tutoring sessions in addition to my own studies. I can show you how to balance a difficult workload while keeping up your mental health.Outside of classes, I enjoy rock climbing, running, and playing League of Legends.

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!

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!

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.

My name is Sarah and I'm a sophomore at Duke University. I'm pre-med studying psychology with a minor in biology and chemistry. I work in the admissions office as a tour guide and I love getting to know high schoolers interested in the college admissions process!

I currently work part-time as a swim instructor for students of all ages, whether they're completely new to the water or they're looking to further hone their skills on a competitive level. I have found a passion for working with various types of people and seeing what works best with them. Through this job, I found that part of my teaching philosophy is having my students create a long-term goal(s) for themselves. That long-term goal allows me to view the steps needed to get to that point and create some short-term goals that will aid in them achieving their overall goal. I recognize and understand that students are all different in terms of how they perceive information, so my goal for myself is to adapt to the needs of my own students to see what works best for them.I studied at Duke University, where I majored in Biology and minored in Chemistry and History. I was recruited to swim for the Varsity Swim and Dive team at Duke, where I swam distance freestyle and butterfly. As an undergrad, I was pre-med and spent the remainder of my free time volunteering through various programs at the school.Two programs impacted me the most during my time as a student - the CAPE and ACE programs. Through the Collegiate Athlete Premedical Experience (CAPE) program, I was able to volunteer at the Brain Tumor Center of the Duke Hospital. There, we collaborated with doctors, PAs, and nurses to aid in the livelihood and well-being of recurring/newly diagnosed glioblastoma patients. We gained firsthand experience working with patients of various backgrounds while obtaining the history of and performing the neural exam on patients. The other program that deeply impacted me was the Student-Athlete Civic Engagement (ACE) Program. During that program, 5 student-athletes from Duke and 5 from Stanford went to one of 4 places to ethically volunteer/run sports camps. I was selected from a pool of applicants to go to rural Cusco, Peru, where we built a greenhouse, renovated a tree nursery, and paved a trail to a viewpoint to promote environmental conservation and rural tourism in Cusco. Under the guidance of the rural Peruvian community, I was able to both utilize the Spanish I knew and learn conversational Spanish and a little bit of Quechua, the local language. After returning from Peru, I applied and was accepted to be an Ambassador for the ACE program at Duke.My strong suits for teaching include Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Spanish, and Math through Calculus.

I am a current undergraduate student at Duke University's Pratt School of Engineering. I am pursuing a bachelor of science in engineering in mechanical engineering, a minor in computer science, and a certificate in innovation and entrepreneurship. As an engineer, I believe one of my greatest strengths is breaking down complex ideas into manageable steps that are easy to follow. I have an abundance of STEM tutoring experience through my high school's National Honors Society chapter and as a freelance tutor. Additionally, I have experience working with children as an instructor for Techsplorer's engineering camps/workshops and as a member of the YMCA Leader's Club. The subjects I enjoy teaching are Algebra, Geometry, Calculus, Statistics, Trigonometry, Physics, and SAT/ACT Math and Science Prep. I believe that as a passionate younger college student, I am able to connect with students more effectively, as I was in their shoes not too long ago! Outside of school and teaching, I like to play Ultimate Frisbee, spend time with my dog, and work on personal engineering projects.

I believe that learning is a lifelong process. I want to help you along your learning journey be as a teenager or adult.

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.

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 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.

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).

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.

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.

My name is Callie, and I recently graduated from Duke University with a major in Biology and a minor in Environmental Policy. I am currently doing research on personalized therapies for glioblastoma brain tumors at the Duke Medical Center, before I continue on to medical school. I love to swim, walk my pug dog, and hang out with family and friends in my free time. I hope I can help you in your studies. I look forward to working with you!

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 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 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.

Besides my mother, my daughters and my late wife, I consider my best teachers (the greatest influences in my life) to have come from Bunny Land A-Cat-A-Me, Johnston Middle School, Bellaire High, Duke University, Stanford Law School and the Vancouver Film School. They pushed, inspired and taught me in richly different ways. They lead me to find joy in knowledge and fluency, in the process fanning a non-stop yearning to learn and to share.I have tutored Advanced Placement students, executives changing careers, and those who believe they can do better academically or on achievement tests. I have instructed lawyers on contemporary legal issues, taught middle and high school students how to craft screenplays, and coached law students in mock trial competitions and middle school basketball teams. I enjoy working with students on French, writing skills, essay editing, American History, LSAT prep, middle school math, geography, government and organizational skills.I treat each student individually, and tailor our sessions to his or her learning styles, and aspirations (and of course, those of their parents). If, as a team, we can achieve the goals we set, and enhance the student's enjoyment and mastery of their unique learning process, I will have done my job.

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!
