I currently have an honors degree from Stony Brook University in Applied Mathematics andSstatistics, I am also currently in graduate school at Stony Brook University to receive my Masters in Teaching.Working with students has always been a passion of mine and is now something I am pursuing. I currently work as a part-time dance instructor and teach children ranging from the ages 2 to 18. Through this job experience I have helped encourage and inspire student to do their best and have also helped tutor these student on occasion in between classes. I would love to continue to help students achieve their goals and push each student to their fullest potential!

I first started tutoring others while in high school. I casually tutored some of my friends and peers who needed help in mutual classes, such as AP Calculus, AP Stats, and AP Physics. I became more involved with formal tutoring as a member of National Honor Society. I was active in tutoring both peers in my own age group, as well as those younger than me in subjects like Calculus and Physics. After I went to college, I went back to informally tutoring some of my friends in classes that we were taking together or that I had already taken. Some of these classes included general chemistry and some organic chemistry, as well as calculus and statics and dynamics in biological systems. At my university, I am getting back into formal tutoring by becoming a teaching assistant for a biology lab/lecture that I took in the past and did well in. I have always enjoyed trying to help others understand subjects that are more difficult to grasp. I believe I have a good understanding of effective teaching methods. I believe that the best ways to learn material are through practicing problems, through making sure each component of a problem is understood, and through methods such as mnemonic devices.I am currently an undergrad at Stony Brook University. I am a Biomedical Engineering major on a cellular and molecular track. When I am not in school and have free time, I enjoy fishing, playing and watching hockey, and catching up and spending time with friends.

I am a Wake Forest University graduate with a degree in Psychology, and I am currently pursuing a career as a physical therapist.I have over 5 years of tutoring experience with students ranging from elementary to college level, tutoring math, reading, writing, and science. I have also had experience tutoring the SAT, as well as helping high school juniors and seniors with their college application process and essay writing.Throughout the years I've been a student, I've had many teachers and tutors, both good and bad. My personal philosophy is to respect my students and engage with them on their terms, and to foster a sense of purpose and positive attitude towards whatever I'm tutoring. I believe that a positive student-teacher relationship creates the best learning environment, and I try to achieve this with each of my students.I am a basketball junkie. I also enjoy football, lounging with my dog, and watching Netflix.

Hello everyone! My name is Morgan Diep, and I am a recent graduate of Stony Brook University. I graduated cum laude with a Health Science B.S. and two minors: one in Writing and Rhetoric and one in Biology. During my undergraduate career, I served as Editor-in-Chief of a mental health organization and a Writing Center tutor. I specialize in assisting with personal statements, particularly those crafted for graduate programs in healthcare.

I'm a recent grad of Stony Brook University with a B.A. in Psychology. I use my discipline of choice to break down the learning process and find the best individually tailored approach for each student. My favorite subjects are English, Math, and, of course, Psychology.Two of my specialties are SAT/PSAT and AP Test preparation. I received a National Merit Scholarship for the PSAT, ranked above 97th percentile in each area of the SAT, and achieved National AP Scholar with Honors.In my free time I enjoy gaming with friends, playing percussion, and listening to a variety of music. I hope to apply my education in Psychology to a career in game design someday. In the meantime I use the same principles to make lessons fun.

I have been teaching literature and writing courses for seventeen years. I earned my Bachelor's degree in English from NYU, and I went on to complete a Ph. D in English at Stony Brook University. I am extremely passionate about my subject. I love interacting with my students, and helping them to feel more confident in their reading and writing skills. I have been helping students to navigate the college admissions process, including preparing for standardized tests and writing the college essay, since I began teaching. My primary motivation is to do anything I can to help each student accomplish his or her goals .

I am a PhD student studying marine biology at Stony Brook University, where I study how plankton (very small animals in the ocean) move around and catch food. Before coming to graduate school, I did my undergraduate degree in Biology at Tufts University in Medford/Somerville, MA. My hobbies include knitting, running, and, of course, reading!Another one of my long-term interests is education. I worked with preschoolers for a full year in college through an AmeriCorps literacy program in low-income preschools. Later, I worked as a teaching assistant for five semesters (three as an undergraduate, and two as a graduate student), teaching biology, chemistry, and environmental science. Most recently, I worked at a local tutoring center with students ages 7-16, tutoring reading/writing, English, and math. I have also worked with several high school and undergraduate student research volunteers in the lab.My favorite subjects are math and science, but I also love reading, writing, and French! I spent five months living in France during my undergraduate degree, and I speak near-fluent French. I love working with kids and young adults, and I'd be happy to work with you to develop study strategies and learn new things!

Hello, prospective students! I have made a life of teaching and studying. Among the subjects to which I have given the most attention are philosophy and history, each of which I have also taught at a college level. My courses have always been writing-intensive, honing my skills at guiding students in mastering their self-expression in English. I have also taught test preparation courses for the SAT, GRE, and LSAT. The most rewarding of all my teaching endeavors has been helping guide my son through his remote and online education. Now I want to put all of this to use for students here at Varsity Tutors. Any student can improve with the right personal care and hard work, and I am committed to providing the attention and support you need.

I am a rising senior at Stony Brook University and I have just taken my Dental Admissions Test (DAT). Working with students and meeting their needs has been a major part of my life outside of school. I worked at a local tutorial while I attended Brooklyn Technical High School after taking the Specialized High School Exam (SHSAT). I taught the math portion of the SHSAT examination for multiple years and it was a rewarding experience for me as I saw many of my students get into their high school of choice. After high school, I entered Stony Brook University and had the pleasure of being a Teaching Assistant for Honors Chemistry. I will be finishing up my Bachelor's in Pharmacology and entering Dental School in the following year. Through my knowledge and years of practice in core and essential subjects such as math, chemistry, biology, and organic chemistry, I can help make your life much easier. I believe the best method for learning is understanding the concepts rather than memorizing it and this has proved to be rewarding in many ways, especially long term. Let me use my years of experience to help you understand in the most short, simple and straightforward manner possible.

I'm a physics student at Stony Brook University with interests in mathematics, baroque music, and music theory.

I am currently a recent M.S. graduate in Speech-Language Pathology. My clinical experiences with various populations, both children and adults, have taught me the importance of creativity and personalizing session. I am dedicated to motivate each student to reach his/her personal goals, and adapt to each students interests through the learning process.I have 6 years of experience working children in the special education setting. I previously worked as in teacher assistant in both the preschool and elementary school. My duties included monitoring classroom, preparing activities, encouraging the growth of ADL skills, as well as support their motor, speech and language, and academic development. I found my experiences in this setting both enlightening and rewarding. This fostered my passion to pursue speech-language pathology.My tutoring experiences include both young students and adults. During my undergraduate career at Stony Brook University, I tutored international students in English for more than a year. I was also a teacher assistant for 100 students in an Intro to Linguistics class, where I held review sessions and made worksheets. I have also had experiences tutoring 3rd grade and 7th grade students, individually and in the group setting. I primarily tutored in the subject of elementary mathematics and algebra.In addition, I have also tutored both 1st and 2nd grade classrooms for two years at a NYC DOE school in the Lower East Side. I have become familiar with the Common Core curriculum. I primarily assisted students throughout a variety of academic subjects, such as reading, writing, math, science, and social studies. It was beautiful to watch students of all academic levels reach their own milestones over these two years. I learned so much about how each student approached the different aspects of the common core curriculum, as well as their learning styles. I encouraged each student to celebrate even their smallest achievements, and was touched by the amount of curiosity and passion students developed in the classroom setting.As a continuous learner myself, I have compassion, patience, and empathy for students who may find difficulty in understanding particular subjects and content. When I heard of Varsity Tutors from a colleague, I was encouraged and eager to share my passion of teaching, motivating, and challenging others in each students academic journey. Thank you for your time, and I look forward to meeting you soon!

Throughout my academic career, I always found ways to make hours of studying enjoyable by coming up with silly mnemonics, jokes, and puns about the material I would have to otherwise dryly trudge through. Whether it was my preparation for AP exam week, pre-med course midterms, MCAT, medical school finals, or my USMLE Step exams, I always found that the best way to manage stress, avoid burnout, and memorize material effectively was to make it fun rather than a chore. By combining my hobby of performing improvisational comedy with my passion for teaching, I've developed an engaging style of tutoring over my 3 years of experience as a college and med school TA. After graduation from St. George's University School of Medicine, I'll be pursuing an MBA in healthcare management and applying for residency in psychiatry, a field I'm deeply passionate about.

Hi, my name is Sunny Wong and I am a graduate student currently attending NYU 's Tandon School of Engineering. I have a background in chemistry, biology and mathematics.

I was born and raised in NYC but recently moved to Georgia. I am currently a Social worker licensed as a LMSW. I have a master's degree in social work from Stony Brook University and a bachelor's degree in Psychology from Plattsburgh State. I have worked in the Human Services/Behavioral Sciences field for 5 plus years. My current career background is in providing psychotherapy and working with teens/adults with severe and persistent mental illness. I love the work that I do because I believe that there is a need for authenticity, connection, understanding and support amongst mankind. Tutoring to me is a connection between student and teach. It is a bond created on a simple goal "achieving improvement and conquering struggles." I am passionate about tutoring for the social work licensing exam as I know hands what it feels like to experience the stressors of taking this test. I have also taught Reading to middle school aged children and find joy in helping my student develop their imaginations and achieve their goals.A Fun Fact about me: My guilty pleasure is a box of Italian rainbow cookies :)

I have my masters in Occupational Therapy and graduated from NYU. I also have my Bachelors of Art in Psychology and graduated from Stony Brook University. I have been working with students with special needs for 9 years. I primarily work with fine motor skills including handwriting and formation of letters. I collaborate with teachers and will work with them in the classroom and follow the common core standards. I also communicate with parents and will work on meeting the goals of the student. If you decide to work with me, I promise to be flexible, patient, and hardworking.

I recently graduated from Stony Brook University with a Bachelors of Science in Biology and a Bachelors of Arts in Sociology. While in college, I tutored children in SAT math as well as subjects such as chemistry and biology. I have recently also taken the MCAT and am very passionate about chemistry, biology, biochemistry, psychology and sociology. While tutoring students, I have seen progress in the skills and techniques they acquire for standardized tests. I believe such strategies are important to grasp and I can help them obtains such knowledge. I hope to impart the knowledge I have obtained on future students and help them succeed in their goals.

I am biologist passionate about teaching and making peoples lives easier.

I graduated with my undergraduate degree in Biology, and have recently completed my MD degree as well. I have tutored many students in the basic sciences such as Chemistry,Organic chemistry, Biology,Pharmacology, and Physiology. I have also tutored Medical Students for their 3 part boards Step 1,2 and 3. I have also worked extensively with Bilingual students (primarily Spanish speaking) with all forms of their Homework assignments. Spanish is my second language at home. I am entirely fluent in conversational Spanish and have a college level proficiency in reading and writing. I work with each of my students and help them attain their academic goals by treating them as individuals with individual needs. I always help each student create a study schedule for their individual classes. I have learned as a student myself, and by working with other students, that no one lacks the intelligence to attain their goals, rather planning and making realistic schedules and goals is the primary step in working towards academic success. I am very hands on and review homework, go over questions on assignments, review and help make notes. I am also very easily reached by all of my students via phone and email. I look forward to helping every one of my students individually, and have usually seen anywhere between a 10-20 point increase and higher in my students. I have learned that with the right mentality and help anyone can succeed towards their educational needs. I look forward to working with you.

Hi! I'm Aderinsola, (Sola for short) and I graduated with my Bachelors in Public Health from Johns Hopkins University and my Masters in Biophysics/Physiology from Stony Brook University. While I was in college, I realized that the best way to comprehend what is taught isn't always in a classroom, but through your peers so I'm ready to help you in any way I can by simplifying everything into everyday language.I most recently worked with an enrichment program teaching science and math to elementary, middle, and high school aged children, and I figured that I loved it so much that I should expand past the four walls of my school. Plus I love the look on kids' faces when they finally get it!To some people math looks like a whole different language, but I understand it enough to turn it into simple english. I promise it's not as hard as they might make it in the classroom and I'm here to strengthen your skills so that you can see that too!I also LOVE science, even went back and got a second degree in it, so I'm pretty well rounded when it comes to biology, biochemistry, and physiology. Again, for some these subjects seem like a different, intangible world, but I promise that I can make it real, tangible and understandable.I want to help students as much as possible, and I plan on doing so through some innovative and exciting learning. I'm easy to reach and I'll always provide fast responses.Please feel free to contact me!

Pursuing a Grad Degree in Biomedical Engineering following an undergrad degree in the same field, am looking to build new ways to interface technology with our humanity and society! As such, I am well versed in a breadth of STEM fields, and have plenty of experience teaching them as well. Since my interests are in research, I stay away with dead-end "memorize this equation" methods taught in schools, since to reach any higher level of understanding, one needs basic understanding first. I believe this to be critical, especially if you are pursuing any sort of higher end programming in your future.

I have a BS degree from Shippensburg University of Pennsylvania where I majored in Chemistry and minored in Mathematics. I am currently a student at Stony Brook University in the Chemistry MS program. I enjoy tutoring because I am passionate about more people becoming engaged in the STEM fields and I view tutoring as a highly accessible way to that end. Tutoring provides for more intimate and individualized sessions for students to learn STEM subjects, which in turn improves their understanding of the subject. Therefore, facilitating this goal through this channel is a strong interest of mine that I also happen to take enjoyment in.

I graduated Cum Laude with departmental honors from Stony Brook University, and with Merit from the Master of Letters program in Creative Writing from the University of Glasgow. In New York City, I still find that some are most impressed by my diploma from Stuyvesant High School.Recently, I tutored a few students for a SAT preparation program and came to enjoy it, especially in a smaller setting where the lessons can be catered to the individual needs of the student. For an English major, I'm very data driven, concerned with the most efficient ways for anyone taking tests to improve their score, as well as their opportunities for higher education. In my spare time, I enjoy writing, hiking, movies, cooking, politics, and literature.

I have been tutoring since 2011 when I retired from developmental optometry, a specialty in which I saw the same children and adults on a weekly basis, using many of the same concepts that are used in tutoring. I have always enjoyed math which is necessary to understand optics and optometry and now I am pleased to watch my students' "aha" moments when they discover the joy of math. The National Tutoring Association has certified me as a tutor and an academic coach.

I'm a biology student at Stony Brook University and a past researcher in neuroscience and x-ray protein crystallography. My background has been heavy handed with Biology and Chemistry courses and has drawn on a thorough and frequent use of algebra as a basis for most of my work. I grew up in Queens, NY and attended a small private school for most of my education prior to university. Having been a student in a small high school and a student in a huge university, I most definitely have an appreciation for personalized attention when endeavoring to learn any subject.

As a Ph.D. in Biochemistry, I have years of experiences teaching undergraduates in the class room and conducting research in the laboratory. While obtaining my Ph.D. I became well versed in breaking down the complex subject material found in biology courses and presenting it to my students in a clear and understandable manner. Biology is more a story than memorizing a long list of facts, and as a Biology "story teller", my students retain more information than they ever did before.While at Stony Brook University, I worked as an assistant teaching new high school AP Biology teachers from the Tri-State area. Here I re-visited the high school curriculum, and soon after broadened my teaching experiences in various high school level subjects, such as math and history.The sciences, like all subjects, require strong study skills. As a teacher/tutor, I focus on instilling proper note-taking and study habits. While my students have me as a instructor now, they will need the proper educational foundation and skills to succeed as they progress in their academic careers. And it is my desire to guide them to that point.

I am a graduate of Gettysburg College with a B.A. in English and Theatre, SUNY Stony Brook with a M.F.A. in Dramaturgy and Dowling College with a M.S. in Secondary English. I spend 11 years as Associate Artistic Director for a Long Island based theatre company as well as Adjunct Assistant Professor at Dowling College in the Theatre Department. I have a passion for English literature as well as its historical implications. As a creative professional in both theatrical endeavors and educational pursuits, I will be guided by my values and shall give it my interest, my enthusiasm, my passion, and most importantly, myself. In everything I do I will present materials in a clear, interesting and innovative way, ensuring each student individually to help them take center stage and achieve academic goals. In my free time I enjoy catching up with favorite television shows or films, bowling, as well as acting in or directing theatrical productions.

My first experience with tutoring occurred while helping my family members in multiple math subjects. I then tutored algebra, geometry and physics at my local high school. My love for math and science, specifically chemistry, are driving me to become a chemical engineer. I hope that by showing younger generations real and useful applications of math and science they can become more excited about it. I'm a firm believer in positive attitudes being contagious and my main goal is to eradicate the negative stigma that surrounds math classes. By breaking down classes like algebra, calculus and geometry I can get students to understand simple concepts and then work on compounding these ideas into the "bigger picture" that each of these courses wishes to convey.

Hi! I'm currently a sophomore at Stony Brook University and a member of the 8-year Scholars for Medicine Program there. I recently graduated from Stuyvesant High School in downtown Manhattan and absolutely love city life. I've had many experiences teaching kids of all ages here and abroad. I tutor subjects in math, science, and english/writing. I also tutor for the ACT(35) and SAT (2160) standardized tests. I love teaching and meeting new people so I would be glad to offer my service to you. Thank you!

Hi my name is Kelsey and I'm excited to work with you! I'm a college student at Stony Brook University pursing a degree in Psychology and Public Health, I'm also working on my associates degree in Biology. I graduated high school in 2017 and was a member of the National Honors Society and the World Language Honors Society. I look forward to working with you.

I am a junior at Stony Brook University, majoring in Applied Math and Statistics. I tutor in practically any form of math, whether it is algebra, calculus, statistics, or standardized test prep in math. I love helping people in any way I can, and teaching math is something I thoroughly enjoy doing. I like to share my knowledge and share my passion of mathematics to others through tutoring. While everyone else may not feel the same way as I do about math, my goal is mainly to help others learn and understand mathematics at any level, and make them feel confident in their abilities to do math. Outside of my passion for math, I love to listen and make music. I am a big fan of playing and watching sports, especially basketball.

Writing Is My Passion Love of language motivates me. Sharing that love is what I do. At 9, I discovered the joy of writing my inner thoughts on paper. I attribute my aha moment to my fifth grade teacher, Mrs. Whitehill, who recognized something in me that I hadn't figured a way to express, yet. She had read My Brother Sam is Dead, by James Lincoln and Christopher Collier aloud, and asked us to write a reaction to the novel. Something in me ignited that day. As a teacher, I honor my inner voice by helping students of all ages find themselves through language. I've done just about any job you could imagine from waitressing to investigating credit card fraud. Mostly, I've written and have been fortunate to earn money from my writing. Throughout 30 years I've written: journalism pieces, essays, business proposals, speeches, public relations materials as well as short stories, poems, lyrics, and fiction. I bring a wealth of real-world experience to the classroom, emphasizing the origin of creation, using many sources of knowledge. Everyone has a story to tell from rapper or spray paint artist to parent or child. Each person has a unique voice to share with the world. I help students write better using their own voice. I value the dynamic student-teacher relationship as a fundamental basis of learning and am a student-focused teacher. My classroom, or (one-on-one session) is conducted with integrity and respect for learning and focused on studying written language. As a tutor, I approach the lesson by simultaneously assessing his/her need and ability. Then step-by-step we work on the project at hand. I'm very efficient with my use of time. I strive to help my students thrive and grow to cultivate a lifelong love of language.

My goal is to exemplify your strengths and pinpoint your weaknesses. Once I discover that weakness, I will do everything in my power to turn it into a strength. It doesn't matter who you are or how smart you are, I want to see you prosper!

I am a graduate of Binghamton University and Stony Brook University. I earned a B.S degree in Computer Science and M.S. degree in Business. As a personal tutor, my primary goal is to help my students discover a hidden sweetness in the so called bitterness of education, in the hope that one day that sweetness of knowledge will guide them to a wonderland no one has ever seen before. In my spare time, I enjoy designing hardware and software systems, researching and surfing the net, traveling, and listening to music.

When I'm tutoring, my goal is not simply to help a student perform for a test or even whole course. That's only goal one.I aim for a tutoring environment which generates discussion, and proposes solutions, in which students think critically about the content at hand, ask their own questions, and exercise ways to find their own answers. Learning in this manner allows students to better face future challenges, and think critically about topics in and out of academia.I look forward to working with you and helping you better yourself, whether that be in a class or for a test, for now and in the future.

Hi my name is Sree and I'm currently studying Biology at Stony Brook! I'm excited to help with whatever you're having trouble with and hopefully we will power through together. If you have any questions feel free to ask any time!

I am a graduate of Stony Brook University. I received my Bachelor of Science in Psychology with a focus on the sciences as I followed a pre-dental course track. Since graduation, I have applied to and been accepted to the Stony Brook University School of Dental Medicine, which I will be attending starting in August. I had previously been an SAT tutor with a test prep company for two years and I have experience in tutoring college level Physics at my University. As a result of my work experience and college education, I am proficient in all the SAT sections, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, general Essay Writing, Biochemistry, and Psychology. I personally enjoy tutoring SAT Critical Reading and Physics the most. To me, language is beautiful and I love exploring and discussing the mechanics of analyzing literature (as students must do on the Critical Reading Section). Physics, on the other hand, explains many of the wondrous everyday phenomenon around us. As a child, I would often think about why things moved the way they did and physics gave me those answers. I enjoy traveling and have been to several US states, Egypt several times, Australia, Italy, Mexico, and the Caribbean. Some of my most memorable experiences include scuba diving in the Great Barrier Reef and sky diving. I speak Arabic semi-fluently and I enjoy reading and training in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and kickboxing. Overall, I am very approachable and patient and will do my best to serve you as a tutor!
