...dreams as well. I have experience working with students of various ages in a wide range of subjects. I especially enjoy teaching biology, writing, and test preparation. My tutoring philosophy is to blend education with inspiration. I believe a great tutor not only teaches the material, but also helps students to become more effective learners. I often provide real-world examples to help students get excited about concepts. Also, I use practice problems so that my...

I am deeply passionate about the field of education. I look forward to tutoring and helping individuals who are dedicated to their future. I am happy to offer advice about college applications and career counseling as well. I can't wait to meet you!

...a double major in Mechanical and Biomedical Engineering. I am currently working at a start up company in Pittsburgh. I am passionate about learning, regardless of the field, and I strive to do my very best at everything I do. I enjoy helping people learn; I don't want people to feel afraid of the sciences and will work hard to find a method of teaching that makes the subject seem more interesting.... In my experience, students...

...Physics. I believe the most important skill for a tutor is to adapt teaching style to the specific strengths and weaknesses of the student. My in-depth knowledge and experience with improvisation allow me to flexibly change problem solving approaches based on what the student needs. I am focused on engaging everyone I work with and am keenly attuned to whether people are truly following along. As an actor and director with a degree in science,...

I graduated with a B.S. and M.S. in Molecular and Cellular Biology from Johns Hopkins University (GPA 4.0). I worked as a peer-learning session leader for Genetics and Physics undergraduate courses. I was also a TA for General Biology. I recently took the MCAT and scored in the 100th percentile. I look forward to using my experience, both on the exam and in teaching, to help you substantially increase your performance and reach your potential.

...with a BS in engineering physics, and a math minor. I have been tutoring for more than 6 years. For 2.5 years, I taught math to Cornell Engineering undergraduates, and I looked forward to it every week! On Varsity Tutors, I tutor up to college level mathematics and physics, test prep (including AP courses, and SAT reading/writing). Explaining difficult math and science concepts in plain English is my forte. I love teaching and will be...

...as a TA, as a volunteer in local schools, and as a frequent contributor to the student science magazine were some of my most rewarding experiences in college. Outside of academia, I love the outdoors, especially camping and back backing. After graduating from Swarthmore I worked as a caretaker on the Appalachian Trail for four months, and am now settling down to tutor full-time until hiking season comes back into full swing. Next fall I...

...subjects. Additionally, I am experienced in the college applications process, including the drafting/editing of personal statements and school-specific essays. I believe that, with persistence and grit, students can develop an extremely solid foundation of learning that can aid them in tests and everyday life. I definitely stress practice problems and problem solving in my approach, however I am open and flexible to feedback and adjustment. As a tutor, I hope to aid students in attaining...

...a B.S. in Physics, and I will be attending Northeastern University to continue my education with a Ph.D. in Physics. I love helping students succeed, and I bring a strong Math and Science background to help students struggling with these difficult subjects. I believe that the secret to succeeding in these subjects is not in memorizing solutions and equations, but by developing problem solving skills so students will know how to approach and set up...

...same manner. I excel at auditory learning while many others prefer visual information. I will work with each student in a way that I believe they will be most receptive to. I will help them understand how a word problem relates to a picture or an equation, which is the most vital skill to have in mathematics. Most importantly, I will help the student have fun. I remember a lot more information from the teachers...

...towards a degree in mechanical engineering with a focus on computer science. I have worked as a tutor for many different age groups since I was in high school. I am really passionate about all the subjects that I teach and my goal with tutoring is to inspire my students to feel the same passion. I love tutoring because I love being able to make a positive difference in my students lives.

As a master's student and former medical student, I know how challenging academics can be. I also know how having a helping hand, a guidance through the confusion, can help one gain confidence in themselves to excel. From tutoring children to post-graduates, I have seen that all students (no matter their age, level of education, strengths, weaknesses, etc.) who are willing to learn can succeed. ... In a typical first session, the student and I usually...

...Vanderbilt University for college, where I studied Medicine, Health and Society along with Psychology and Spanish. I worked for a little while at a Boys and Girls Club and then at a hospital in Atlanta before moving to Boston for graduate school. I got my MPH at Tufts and began medical school at Tufts as well before deciding to take some time away from school to reevaluate my career goals and to enjoy myself a...

My tutoring experiences with middle school, high school, and freshman college students will surely help me understand the best way to teach you in order for you to understand and excel in your quizzes and examinations. I will accompany you in your journey of academic transformation through guided explanations for all the questions you might have, mock tests and assignments that build confidence. You will be much better than the state you were when we...

...I majored in molecuar and cellular biology with a minor in chemistry. During that time, I also tutored fellow peers and underclassmen in organic chemistry, anatomy and physiology, and biology. Post-graduation, I worked for another tutoring company that focused on ACT/SAT preparation. All of my students scored in the 95th percentile or higher. I'm a second year MAMS student at Boston University School of Medicine. I'm currently working in a skeletal tissue biology research lab...

...levels on several topics for over a decade. I have a B.S. in physics, and a master's in Nuclear Science and Engineering from WPI. I completed my second master's in particle astrophysics at the university of Strasbourg in France. I love getting students excited about learning and helping them through difficult topics. One of my favorite challenges is working with students to figure out their specific learning styles to optimize their academic performance.

I am currently a second year Biology undergraduate student at Northeastern University with a diverse foundation in science. For me, the study of medicine piques my curiosity, specifically cardiology and neurology- both of which I hope to pursue in the near future.... I believe in the power of practice. I think the most effective way of teaching is a brief overview with a big emphasis on practicing problems.... I would get to know the student’s strengths...

...short and I'm a Harvard Sophomore. I'm studying computers, the brain, and space (You could say my interests are out of this world!) I'm really passionate about making learning fun. I hope that sessions with me will make material not just understandable but also enjoyable and applicable. I like incorporating technology, hands-on activities, and real-world applications into my STEM-based tutoring subjects. As a tutor, I specialize in calculus (1, 2, and 3), Computer Science (Python,...

...and why the natural world works. The sciences are what propel our civilization forward and hold the keys to our future. It is a genuine pleasure to be able to share my enthusiasm on these subjects with new students and hopefully make the daunting world of natural sciences more approachable. Outside of work and teaching, I enjoy building computers, SCUBA diving, playing the blues, and testing out new recipes in the kitchen.

Learning isn't always easy; in fact it's often uncomfortable. This means it's possible to find meaning even in classes we hate or the ones we think we are bad at. For this reason, I hope to work with learners who might be uncertain about their interests and futures.
