In the fall of 2007, I fulfilled a dream by attending the University of Notre Dame. There I majored in Classics and Pre-Professional Studies. Following my college career, I obtained a Masters degree in Biomedical Sciences from Midwestern University in Downers Grove.I have always been fascinated with biology and chemistry and how microscopic interactions lead to the world we see around us. I love learning about all areas of science and this passion drives my excitement for tutoring. As someone who was able to go to his dream school, I am committed to helping everyone I tutor to have the same opportunity.

I have been a tutor for six years, and have tutored all ages. I specialize in the college admission process, and especially like working with students on admissions essays and test prep. I graduated from the University of Notre Dame two years ago with a degree in television and anthropology. I work at MTV during the weekday, but am free weekends and weeknights after 7:00 pm.
Hi I'm Quinton! I'm a PhD student at the University of Notre Dame and I love talking about chemistry! To me, chemistry is a hands-on, creative discipline, much like art, where we solve problems and design things the world hasn't seen before. As your tutor, my goal is to help you build the skills and confidence you need to think critically, approach challenges creatively, and build a deep, genuine understanding of the material.
I am a 2023 graduate of the University of Notre Dame with a Finance/Economics major and a minor in Innovation and Entrepreneurship. I am a passionate student in the math and business realms, as I enjoy the intuitiveness of the former and the real-world potential of the latter. During classes in middle and high school, I developed a reputation of being a good source of help within my classes in a non-tutor capacity, and grew that into a peer tutor role a couple times a week during lunch my senior year of high school. What I hope to accomplish with my tutoring is ensure that you not only achieve your desired grade/score, but see how the different concepts relate to each other in the bigger picture. The more important part is to critically think about the subject matter in other, more unfamiliar contexts. Also, in my math subjects, I seek to provide personal secrets in realms including quicker computation strategies, unique acronyms for certain rules, and other intuitive shortcuts.
Hi! My name is Lauren and I am a 2018 graduate of the University of Notre Dame, where I received my Bachelor of Business Administration in Information Technology, and a minor in Latin. Since graduation, I have lived in Chicago working for a high frequency trading firm, and volunteering on week nights with a nonprofit called Tutoring Chicago.I tutored students all throughout high school and college, and am very excited to continue doing so through Varsity Tutors! While I offer tutoring in a broad range of subjects, my passions lies with languages: Latin, and of course English writing/grammar. I was very lucky to have teachers in middle school who showed me how fun language can be, and I take pride in my ability to make even the more "boring" parts of learning a language fun and interesting.As for hobbies and interests, I love being outdoors, dogs, running, tennis, and am the world's biggest Lord of the Rings geek.Thank you for reading my profile and I look forward to being in touch!
I am a graduate of the University of Notre Dame (ND), where I received my Bachelor of Science in Science Pre-Professional Studies (pre-medicine) and a minor in Anthropology. During my time at ND, I tutored Freshman ND students in organic and inorganic chemistry for two and a half years. Some of my other extracurricular activities included founding the World Health Assimilation Through Notre Dame (WHAT ND) club, participating in rare and neglected diseases research, and volunteering in my local communities.

I graduated from the University of Notre Dame in 2015 with a bachelor's degree in Political Science. After graduation I then completed a Pre-Health Specialized Studies Post Bacc Program at the University of Pennsylvania with plans to ultimately attend medical school. During my time at Notre Dame I spent 2 years tutoring students through College Mentors for Kids. Although I am confident working with all subjects, I am particularly comfortable tutoring in math, reading, physics, and standardized test prep.
I started tutoring students in math during the pandemic. I saw that many were falling behind all over the USA and I wanted to help out.
I received my bachelor's degree from the University of Notre Dame in 2009 and my master's degree from the University of Connecticut in 2013. I have spent the past six years in education: teaching English in Japan for two years, coordinating a mentor program for first year college students, working as an academic advisor, and teaching first year experience courses to new college students, focusing on topics like time management and study skills. I understand firsthand the importance of standardized tests as students make goals for their next level of education; I am happy to help students prepare for these exams. I enjoy students of all ages and am excited to tutor a wide range of subjects, although my first loves are math and English (especially grammar). I truly believe my sincere energy and enthusiasm can help make students excited about learning. I welcome questions and value honesty while tutoring. My personal interests include international education, traveling, hiking, camping, and Notre Dame football.
I am a graduate from the University of Notre Dame, where I studied Philosophy, History, and Education, and this fall I am beginning Graduate School at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee for a Master's in Library and Information Science. I have certifications in 5-12th grade English, Level 1 Google Education, and Level 5 Teaching English as a Foreign Language. During my time at Notre Dame and continuing to the present, I have held numerous positions in education, including tutoring, small-group leadership, classroom teacher, and trainer/supervisor. Most of my work has focused on middle school English, Social Studies, and literacy, but I have tutored in all subjects and all grade levels. The philosopher Plato once said that the purpose of education is to 'turn the soul' of the learner towards truth. I have made it my life's work to inspire this perspective shift and passion for learning in others, and I hope to continue to do so with your child.
I am a three-time graduate of the University of Notre Dame. I received my Bachelor of Arts in History, and received Master's Degrees in both Education and Educational Administration. I spent 17 years in secondary education, beginning my career as a social studies teacher and then transitioning to several administrative roles including dean of students, activities director, and principal. I currently tutor in English, Writing, and Essay Editing. I have spent time tutoring Vietnamese students applying to colleges and universities in the United States, assisting them with their application essays from concept to completion. I love to teach, whether that is how to swim, how to water ski, or how to write an excellent essay. In any teaching situation, what I enjoy most is watching the fear leave students' eyes as they realize that they can do something they didn't believe they could do. That's why tutoring in college application essays is my favorite. Essays can be intimidating, especially when admission to college is riding on them, but the barriers that cause fear can be easily broken down and every student can be empowered to write excellent essays. I've worked with students applying to nearly all of the top 25 universities in the United States. I take a very personal approach to tutoring, meeting students where they are and walking alongside them to get them where they want to be. When I'm not working, I enjoy doing anything with my dog and anything outside, especially if it involves being under, in, or on water.

I currently attend the University of Notre Dame, majoring in finance and political science. During high school, I was a tutor for three years, mainly teaching various english and literature classes. I currently tutor for the ACT, with a specialty in English and Reading. I like these subjects because they are so commonly used in every day life, and I feel that I have very effective strategies that will help a student succeed in these subject areas. I took the ACT three times, so I feel very familiar with the test taking experience and strategies for success. My teaching style is very open and transparent; I am willing to address any issue with an open mind and I try to develop strategies that play to a student's strengths. I would like to think I am very approachable and personable, and I have had very positive experiences with many students in the past using this philosophy. Outside of academics, I love playing basketball and watching sports, as well as chilling with friends, listening to music, and keeping up with politics and current affairs.
I am a person who genuinely enjoys both writing and chemistry (especially organic). To most people, this seems like an odd combination but for me it's natural. I have been able to leverage both of these skills in order to obtain a PhD in organic chemistry. Also, I have written a couple of articles about chemistry on Medium. Understandably, some students struggle in these areas and I would like to help. When I am working with students, I like to be flexible with my teaching approach. During our first session, the student and I will set goals for our time together and we will discuss your learning style. In the subsequent sessions, student and I will work together to develop a learning environment that will help you Education: - Ph.D. in Organic Chemistry from the University of Notre Dame (2014) - B.S. in Biochemistry from Xavier University of Louisiana (2008) Experience: 1. 5 years working as a lecture teaching assistant for general chemistry I and organic chemistry I and II at the University of Notre Dame 2. 1 year experience tutoring a high school student in chemistry (1 hour per week) 3. 6 years experience in helping undergraduate students understand organic chemistry and biology
I have over ten years of teaching and tutoring experience, including one year teaching ESL at a Kindergarten in Chiang Mai, Thailand, three years teaching ESL at a cram school for students in elementary, middle, and high school in Taipei, Taiwan, and two years teaching creative writing to undergraduates at the University of Notre Dame. As someone who has studied Mandarin Chinese for three years, I understand the difficulty of acquiring a new language and the importance of immersion in the language as opposed to rote memorization of vocabulary words. I also believe that presenting arguments in a clear, well-structured, organized manner will improve any essay, regardless of the subject.
I believe every student deserves the opportunity to excel through dedicated one-on-one tutoring so they can tackle new concepts with confidence and independence. With my background in mechanical engineering, I am excited to help students understand mathematical and scientific concepts, and my lifelong love of reading has prepared me to help students with reading comprehension and writing. My tutoring experience: SAT tutor during high school - Personal middle school tutor during college - Currently an EL (English-learning) Para-educator at my local middle school for all middle school subjects. I know basic Spanish, and I use this to help bridge conceptual gaps in any subject while also helping to teach the English language.

My goal is to create a supportive and encouraging environment where students feel comfortable taking risks, asking questions, and reaching their personal goals. Nothing is more rewarding to me than seeing a student gain confidence and discover their own potential.
My name is Katelyn. I attended high school at Benet Academy in Lisle. I recently graduated from the University of Notre Dame, where I majored in Science Preprofessional Studies and Spanish and minored in Poverty Studies. I hope to attend medical school, where I currently intend to pursue a career as an Intensive Care Pediatrician. Please feel free to contact me about additional availability.I first began tutoring in high school. I have experience tutoring grammar, middle and high school aged students in a variety of subjects. I believe that it is important to have a firm grasp of the information at all stages of the education process to ensure success both throughout later stages of education and life. Furthermore, I enjoy walking with students to success and the natural confidence that is built during this process.
I graduated from the University of Notre Dame in 2014 and have been working a variety of jobs from helping out at local hospitals to tutoring and being a research assistant. So far, I have enjoyed tutoring the most because I love seeing students' aha moments. My interest in tutoring begins from my time as a student. I loved to tackle tough problems especially in my math and physics class and was also intensely curious about problem solving in general. My own methods relied heavily on intuition. which was quite irritating as I like to know exactly how things work. Over time, I realized that this intuition was more than luck. In fact, it was a working knowledge of ideas and concepts on a particular topic acquired through hundreds of hours of prior preparation combined with a particular sense of translating a problem into terms I could understand. This understanding reflects in my own teaching style. I like to use discussion to first elicit a student's understanding of the subject. Then, with structured guidance through problems I further develop the student's understanding so that they can see the big picture, including strengths, weaknesses, and implications of a particular concept. These naturally build into developing critical thinking skills. While I currently tutor a wide array of subjects, I am most interested in tutoring Math (geometry, algebra 1/2/prealgebra, trigonometry), Physics 1 and 2, General Chemistry (Honors, AP, or college level), and the MCAT Foundations of Physical Science and Critical Analysis and Reasoning sections.
This year, I graduated from the University of Notre Dame with a bachelor???s degree in Chemical Engineering and a concentration in Biomolecular Engineering. I held a wide range of tutoring positions during my undergraduate experience including: an English Literacy tutor for grammar school students, an SAT Math instructor, and a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) tutor for college students. I believe my strongest subject to tutor is Standardized Test Prep (SAT, ACT, and GRE). Performing well on these tests can truly bolster a student???s application for undergraduate or graduate education, and I truly enjoy helping him or her achieve their best. I am also passionate about tutoring Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, and Calculus. My teaching style is not set in stone; I understand that everyone learns differently and will try to find a learning method that will suit the student. Next year, I will begin my pursuit of a PhD in Biological Engineering, and I aspire to be an undergraduate professor and researcher. In my free time, I love to play guitar, play pickup basketball, and spend time at the beach.

I hold several U.S. and foreign patents; the most recent issued in April 2014.For many years, I was a youth soccer coach in the Concord league and was a player in an adult soccer league. I create YouTube videos for fun, information and training purposes. My wife and I raised two children who graduated from Concord High School and Purdue University, and went on to earn graduate degrees.As a math teacher, I have had the satisfaction of seeing students see the light, find their way in math, and start to explore and blaze new trails of their own. I help others to see math clearly. I tutor all levels of algebra. I also teach online and traditional math classes at Ivy Tech Community College in Elkhart and South Bend. My philosophy is that every student is capable of learning and applying math principles. My passion is to provide a boost to get them going.

I am a graduate of the University of Notre Dame and Arizona State University. I received my Master of Science in Accountancy from Notre Dame with a focus on Taxation. I received my Bachelor ofScience in Accountancy from Arizona State. Since graduation, I have worked in public accounting and tutoring individuals from elementary school ages through young adults in a variety of subjects. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most experienced in Mathematics but have a strong base for English and Essay Writing. I believe a well rounded education is important for success in life and a strong understanding of Mathematics is necessary. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my family, playing/watching sports, watching movies, and being outdoors as much as the Arizona heat will allow.
I'm a recent graduate of the University of Notre Dame. I graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Science-Computing--the University's equivalent of the pre-med major, but with additional credits reserved for a few Computer Science electives. While there, tutoring was one of the main activities I was involved in, and I found it deeply fulfilling when I'd see a certain idea suddenly click for my tutees.My tutoring expertise is definitely in STEM, especially Math and Chemistry. I'm constantly amazed by how connected even the most disparate of STEM concepts can be, like the gears of a well-oiled machine: when learning new material, I always find myself revisiting old ideas in some new light and find unexpected relationships between the two.I'm a strong visual learner, and this is reflected in my style of tutoring. I think that being able to picture something clearly instantly makes it significantly less abstract, and is particularly helpful when trying to dissect the inner workings of some multi-step process. That said, this isn't the only way I approach things, and there's enough flexibility with the sciences that I'd feel comfortable approaching things from some other angle, if it'd be more fruitful.Beyond academics, I love playing the piano, learning computer programming, and video games, especially the main Mario titles (SMB3, 3D Land, Galaxy, Odyssey, etc.): of the ones I've played, I'm proud to say that I've completed all of them 100%.
I am a graduate of The University of Notre Dame. I received a Master of Theological Studies degree with a focus on Systematic and Historical Theology. I also have Bachelor of Arts degrees in History and Political Science from North Carolina State University. While I can tutor a range of subjects, I am most interested in helping students with graduate level test prep. I have recently studied for and taken the GRE, so I am well-positioned and passionate about helping students succeed with testing and graduate school admissions. Writing is another area of interest for me. I especially enjoy helping students develop their writing skills. I love learning and I want to help students learn to love it too. Learning is valuable for its own sake apart from any practical considerations. However, I do recognize that sometimes students need concrete, immediate, quantifiable results, and so I always keep a student's stated goal at the forefront. In my free time, I enjoy reading, listening to music, as well as watching and playing sports.
Growing up I had a lot of tutors to help me with school and I always understood how important this profession is. I was lucky to have been given very good tutors and now is the time to be an even better tutor and help others.I've worked with a few people over the last 3 years. I helped a lot of kids in my school with maths and physics. In College I helped my peers with the Chemical Principles course, as I have covered all the material behind it. My greatest success was a student in Russia whose SAT I made go up from around 600/800 to 1300.I got my education in London and am an alumni of Westminster school. I have achieved 11 GCSEs and 5 A Levels, 4 of the A Levels were part of the Pre-University Cambrdge course.i'm currently in the University of Notre Dame and am going to declare my major as Science and Business.I tutor mathematics from intro level to Calculus 2, chemistry (both organic and physical), physics (classical physics as well as some modern physics, like Relativity), English Literature and comprehension, SAT prep, ACT prep.My favourite subjects to tutor are physics and chemistry because of my extensive lab experience over the last few years. I love experiments and creating my own projects and I hope I can pass this passion onto others.My tutoring style involes a lot of interaction with the student on zoom. I'm able to draw on the computer screen and I can convey information very easily. I also build custom timeline which targets a student's weak points, so that they will be able to learn quicker.
I recently retired from the US Army after 17 years as an analyst and adviser on Northeast Asian policy. I hold a BA in Japanese Language and Government/International Relations from Notre Dame, an MA in Asian Studies from the University of Hawaii, and am currently working on PhD in Japanese History at Princeton University.Over my time in the Army, I worked in 4 different countries with partners from over 20 different nations, both military and civilian. I spent 7 years in Japan working as a liaison, policy adviser, and sometime interpreter/translator. However, the job I enjoyed most was as the chief of a team training Army units preparing to conduct joint exercises with Asia-Pacific partners. I really enjoyed teaching and sharing my experiences in order to prepare soldiers to succeed and bring the same enthusiasm to tutoring.The best way to remember something is to have it practically apply to you--I try to bring out the "so what" in every subject to help students understand why it is important. As a tutor for the past 3 years, 3/4 of my students in AP European History and AP American History have scored 5s on the AP exam.
I like to help others learn and achieve academic success, and I have a variety of experiences to show it. I've tutored high-school students in East Harlem; created curriculum and taught classes for adult English language learners; engaged pre-K children in science experiments; and assisted my peers with coursework as an undergraduate at Notre Dame. I believe learning looks different for everyone, and a little patience and creativity can go a long way in tutoring. My day job in refugee resettlement utilizes my communication skills and my ability to solve real-life logic problems, like those on the LSAT and college admissions tests. I specialize in writing as a professional skill and personal hobby; I like to read, eat, paint, and travel for fun.
I am a Notre Dame alumna and an Arizona State alumna, where I received my Masters in Social Work. I am from Milwaukee, WI, and moved out to Phoenix 9 years ago.I really love helping people, which is what led me to pursue social work. I enjoy tutoring because it gives me the chance to spend quality time with a person, learning his or her learning style, so that I can adapt my teaching style to best help the individual. I have always really enjoyed and excelled at math, but find that I can tutor a broad range of subjects, from English to history to accounting. Test prep is a strong area for me, as I like to focus on the patterns and trends that come up in standardized tests. If you are looking for a tutor that will go at your desired pace and will work at your level, I am a good fit for you. I have tutored students from the elementary school age up to the graduate school level.In my free time, I love watching sports, especially football. I am a diehard Notre Dame fan and get back to campus as much as possible. I also love to hike andenjoy the great outdoor opportunities that Arizona gives us. I also enjoy traveling, and my dream is to go to Africa one day, where I would love to spend time teaching.I look forward to the opportunity to work with you and help you reach your full potential!
I graduated from the University of Notre Dame summa cum laude with a Bachelors degree in Finance and a certificate in International Business. I went abroad to London for a semester during my junior year, studying business as well as the social sciences. During the 7.5 semesters I spent on-campus, I tutored elementary, middle, and high school students at a local community center. I also served as a teaching assistant for Process Analytics, a course requirement for the Mendoza School of Business undergraduate program. Im currently pursing my passion to help others and augment my own knowledge as I work on a Masters degree in General Psychology.I truly love to learn, and Im inherently inclined to share my enthusiasm for learning with others. My goal is to help students excel in all of their coursework, and to identify the subjects that excite them the most. Everyone has unique preferences for the ways in which they learn new material. I aim to devise individualistic strategies for each student with patience, persistence, and positive energy.
