BA Duke University • Doctor of Medicine, Premedicine Yale University
4+ Years Tutoring

I am a 2021 graduate from Duke University where I graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Biology, with Distinction. At Duke, I also minored in Global Health and Chemistry and was a recipient of the Benjamin N. Duke full-ride scholarship based on leadership, service, and academics. I will be attending Yale Medical School as a member of the entering class of 2022. Having recently navigated the medical school application process with many interviews and acceptances, I have begun helping others with their essay writing and application prep. I come from a large Caribbean family and I love learning about other cultures while sharing my own. I enjoy teaching and have worked with everyone from Kindergarteners to middle and high school students to college students and even older adults! My primary teaching experience and interests are all elementary and middle school subjects, biology (through college level), beginner Spanish, essay writing, and test prep/study skills. I have also been an art educator for K-10 and adults!

7+ Years Tutoring

I am a recent graduate from the University of Georgia with a major in Chemistry and a minor in Spanish. During my junior year, I spent the fall through summer semesters helping instruct general chemistry classes and organic chemistry labs. Overall, I personally enjoy teaching and tutoring others not only because it better helps people understand some of the more difficult concepts of the material but because it also allows me to fully cement my knowledge and help people further.

Rachael
BA Seattle University
4+ Years Tutoring

I am currently working towards my Nursing BSN degree at Seattle University. As an active student myself, I know how stressful learning can be, so I love helping others build the solid understanding and confidence they need to reduce stress and enjoy the process. I have always been a big advocate for making learning a fun experience, keeping information well-organized, developing sustainable study habits, and applying material to make significant connections to everyday life. Reducing test anxiety is another key to letting the students shine through on exam day. I tutor a range of subjects, but some of my favorites are study skills/organization, math, and writing. Furthermore, I am well versed in biology and anatomy as a nursing student.

Robert
MS Trinity College Dublin • MS Emory University

I have a BS in both Mathematics and Chemistry from Emory University and MSc in Quantum Science and Technology from Trinity College Dublin. My master's thesis focused on my research on quantifying causality in quantum systems. As a Tutor, I see it as my job to help you understand what you already know and connect that to what you want to know. I believe the best way to learn any concept is to approach it from several perspectives to develop a more comprehensive understanding and find the framing you find most intuitive. It is my goal to help you develop the skills and confidence to realize how to solve problems on your own and directly identify any misconceptions or gaps in knowledge. I would love to share my passion for science, mathematics, and learning with students that share my passion and enjoy challenging themselves.

Carlos
BA University
3+ Years Tutoring

I've helped several hundred students in a wide variety of subjects, from executive functioning to computer science to standardized testing. I also help students with general support in math and English. Most of my students are around 9-17, but I work well with students who are older and a little younger as well. I also work very well with students who have specific obstacles or requirements, such as neurodiversity support or schedules that change a lot. Most of my background is in computer science, from my college major to my experience hands-on over the past 10 years. Regardless of the subject, I believe every student's needs are unique and every student is able to achieve great things with the right preparation and support. My number one goal is to provide that whenever I can, both to the student and to their parents. I communicate with parents outside of sessions a lot to establish their expectations, better understand students, and recommend ways they can directly support their children in their journey as well.

I graduated in 2023 with a Bachelors in English and Psychology (and a minor in Studio Art) from University of South Carolina. I love tutoring English and math. Books have always been a big part of my life, and I love reading and writing. I know it may be odd for an English major to love math, but I took all the way up to college level Calculus (and enjoyed it!). My teaching style is breaking things down to the simple building blocks that are clear to understand, and then building more complex ideas from there.

Nicole
BA Siena College
2+ Years Tutoring

I am a graduate of Siena College in Loudonville, NY. I received my Bachelor of Science in Marketing and Management. I have two children that I have homeschooled for eight years. We have used many different curriculums and tried many different teaching styles. That is the beauty of homeschooling! We can change tactics and find what works at that time. I started a homeschool co-op, and I was the director and tutor for 6 years. I am now a tutor at a homeschool co-op in South Carolina. I was also a substitute teacher at a public school. I tutor many subjects, but I specialize in reading for young children and children struggling with reading. I believe in the above-at-below reading method. A child needs you to read to them above their reading level, with you at their reading level, and they should read independently below their reading level. This helps build confidence and works great, especially for young or struggling readers. I also teach history and science and have experience with classical education.
