...am invested in each of my students' success and work hard to help them succeed. Consequently, each of my past tutoring clients has seen significant improvement. I am a big believer in catering to students' learning styles. I pay attention to whether they are an audio, visual, or kinesthetic learner, and then I tutor accordingly. I am currently a junior at Brigham Young University. I am an Applied & Computational Mathematics major with a concentration...

...the one-on-one interaction I get with people when I tutor. Watching people really understand and be excited about learning is what makes it worthwhile for me. The key is to spark the fun and excitement of learning within the student. I have tutored primarily middle and high school students but am comfortable with any age. I tutor many subjects, but am especially proficient in the areas of test preparation, math, and Spanish. I took several...

Let's make learning fun!

...would be mere obstacles to my grade. As I got into progressively harder subjects, especially when entering high school, I had to change in mindset of what it even means to BE a student. Standardized tests, subjects that I just didn't get, and all these other educational obligations had me perplexed. I was lucky enough to acquire a great tutor of my own who helped navigate through my studies. Test-taking strategies and deeper comprehension of...

...or two letter grades. Along with improving grades, it is important to me that students discover their personal learning style and gain confidence in the learning process. My teaching style is both personal and goal-oriented. In the first time meeting a student I like to briefly introduce myself. I like to hear a little about the student as well. I then take time to hear the student's attitude towards their class, their own perceived strengths...

...in geological science (geophysics) from University of Colorado Boulder with a minor in mathematics. Part of my success in college came from the preparation I had from taking AP Calculus and Physics courses in high school. I'm a huge fan of visual aids and examining real-life examples and applications when teaching. I worked as a learning assistant in an astronomy lab course and as a tutor for student athletes in geology while attending CU. I've...

...an MBA down the road. Over the past couple of semesters I have gone from helping students with homework to an official volunteer tutor through our campus's tutoring program called YServe. I volunteered there for the past semester before deciding to do it as a job. I tutor Introductory Business and Economics classes as well as SAT/ACT prep. I especially enjoy tutoring Economics because I enjoy the subject and a lot of times students just...

...have tried to help me to reach my potential and so I would also love to help others to do the same. I'm a neuroscience major at BYU and I love music in every aspect (dancing, singing, listening, playing instruments, composing, etc.) I have worked with students sporadically since 2011. I tutor especially in mathematics, the sciences, and spanish. I believe that everyone learns differently and I strive to figure out how people learn to...

...and I'm great at helping students make sense of new or difficult concepts. As a tutor, I am careful to make sure that students are able to do problems on their own, without relying too heavily on memorization. Outside of school and work, I enjoy getting up in the mountains whenever I can. I especially like hiking, fishing, and backpacking. I'm also a huge nerd when it comes to fantasy and science fiction novels.... I don't...

My name is Ben. I struggled as middle school student mostly because I had a hard time focusing. I became an educator to help kids like me learn about the amazing world we live in. I have taught middle school geology and literacy. I have a background in chemistry, physics, political science and math up to calculus 1.... The world is a fascinating place, and it enriches our lives to learn more interesting things every day....

...their full potential as my own personal goal. When I worked as a tutor at the Burbridge Athletics Academic Center at the University of Utah, where I also earned my Bachelors of Science in Physics, I developed a passion for education, which I intend to continue with now that I have moved to Washington DC. I am able to tutor students in Physics, Mathematics, and Computer Science, having developed experience as part of my pursuit...

...University studying business, so I know how hard it can be to learn about a subject that is difficult, or from a teacher who does not connect well with their students. That is why I strive to teach my students by the principal I learned from Alfred Mercier "What we learn with pleasure we never forget". I learned this first hand as I lived in South America for two years. It was a lot easier...

...January 2014 I have worked in the physics help lab at BYU. Throughout this time I have greatly enjoyed helping many students increase their understanding of physics. I love seeing my students have a "light-bulb" moment where suddenly everything we discussed makes sense to them. I think it is extremely important for everyone to have (at least) a basic understanding of math and science as this helps us to better understand our world. I am...

...whether designing drugs, computer applications, or basic chemistry and math problems it all starts with the same steps: A) What do I know? B) What do I want to know? C) How do I get from A to B? I did PhD research in computational chemistry and dream of becoming a middle school math teacher if I win the lottery. PS - My online sessions will frequently be monitored by my chihuahua, Piper. She's quiet, but...

...attending the University of Utah I have sought out many different opportunities and programs that will allow me to become more well-rounded, work with people from all populations, find out what I enjoy, and apply the knowledge I have learned in school. Programs such as: UFIT- a program that works with kids with disabilities to help them grow cognitively, socially, and functionally; Worked in UNI- the neuropsychiatric institute; Currently work in the Inpatient Medical Rehabilitation...

...Viki and I am a Princeton sophomore who is currently on a gap year. As a Computer Science major, I am skilled in the subjects of math, computer science, and Spanish! I would love to teach either a school subject or an SAT preparatory session. Teaching is my passion because there is just something so indescribably special about the "ah hah!" moment. I look forward to bringing these moments to you via Varsity Tutors!

...I give this background to you to say I knew coding, and a little signal processing, but no circuit design, neuroscience, or mechatronics prior to my injury. Now using techniques I've learned through trial and error I am able to compete in the same space as people who have been studying in the space for years. It is just a matter of focusing on what is important to learn and ignoring the rest. Don't worry,...

...both high school and college, in both math and physics. I haven't worked as a tutor professionally, but I will be able to draw on my experience from helping my peers through school to tutor others in the best way possible. I graduated from the University of Utah's Mechanical Engineering program with a 3.9 GPA, so I have a good grasp of all of the subjects that were covered. Because I usually understood the material...

...to serve a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints in Houston, TX. During my Full-Time Missionary experience, I became fluent in Spanish, taught people about Christian principles and beliefs, taught English to Latinos weekly, held several leadership positions and provided community service regularly. I love to teach a wide variety of subjects, but my greatest strengths are Chemistry, Math, and Spanish. I firmly believe that the success of our nation is...

...school students, but am excited to help anyone trying to learn. My favorite part of tutoring is watching students begin our lessons confused about things in their class and slowly grasp the concepts more firmly, and by the end feel confident implementing the concepts on their own. Although my experience is in math, I have a Bachelor's of Science in Neuroscience from Brigham Young University. I am currently applying to medical school and hope to...
