Having earned dual physics degrees and a state teaching certification, Gerardo knows exactly where pre-calculus stops being review and starts demanding new thinking — the shift from manipulating expressions to reasoning about function behavior, limits of sequences, and trigonometric models. He teach...

Whitney's neuroscience degree from Pomona required serious quantitative chops — modeling neural firing rates with sinusoidal functions, fitting dose-response data to logarithmic curves, and composing multivariable functions long before most students see them in a textbook. She teaches pre-calculus b...

As a chemistry major at Occidental College, Chandler constantly relies on the mathematical toolkit pre-calculus builds — logarithmic relationships in pH calculations, exponential models in reaction kinetics, and trigonometric functions in spectroscopy. He teaches these topics by connecting them to t...

A drama degree might seem like an unlikely background for pre-calculus, but Michael's 35 ACT and deep comfort teaching everything from pre-algebra through AP Calculus BC reveal genuine mathematical range — he knows exactly how polynomial end behavior, rational asymptotes, and trigonometric graphs co...

Studying physics and mathematics simultaneously means Drew encounters every pre-calculus concept twice — once as pure math, once as the scaffolding behind kinematics, wave equations, and force decomposition. That double exposure gives him a sharp sense of which ideas (like trigonometric identities a...

A dual degree in physics and mathematics from Clark means Sarah didn't just pass through pre-calculus — she built on it daily, using trigonometric relationships to model wave behavior and polynomial functions to approximate physical systems. She's especially sharp on the conceptual bridges that trip...

I am an interdisciplinary educator with an Ed.M. from the Harvard Graduate School of Education and a B.A. from Dartmouth College. My background is primarily in integrated arts learning and museum education and I specialize in visual arts, history and art history, and object-based learning. In all su...

I'm not tutoring or buried in my textbooks, you will either find me rock climbing at the Triangle Rock Club, playing Ultimate Frisbee, working on my car, or enjoying the great outdoors (beaches, mountains, forests--you name it, I love it). On rainy weekends I enjoy tinkering with computers and old e...

I am a recent graduate from a masters program in biostatistics at Columbia University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in biological sciences, with a focus in neurobiology at Northwestern University. In August, I will be starting a doctoral program in biostatistics at NYU. I was a teaching assistant ...

I am a graduate of Wesleyan University, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in Sociology with High Honors. With eight years of experience working in education, I've tutored students in math, science, history, and English, as well as helped students prepare for standardized tests. I've guided adults...

I am a junior Mechanical Engineering major at Yale, and I hope to become a Naval Aviator after college. I am also a varsity sailor, and enjoy playing music with friends when I can get some free time. I have been tutoring my fellow students throughout my entire academic career, and I would best descr...

I'm Solange - a recent graduate from Harvard where I studied Sociology & Women's Studies. I've been tutoring for eight years now, and have worked with a wide range of ages and in a wide range of subjects. Some of my specialties are college prep/test taking II worked in the admissions office on campu...

I am a rising sophomore at Harvard College and am about to declare as a Mechanical Engineering concentrator, working towards a Bachelor of Science degree. I've always enjoyed sharing my knowledge with my peers and those around me and have done so in both formal and informal settings. I've been a tut...

I am proud to be a part of Varsity Tutors! I am originally from San Antonio, TX; I completed my undergraduate education at Rice University in Houston where I received a bachelor's degree in Biochemistry and Cell Biology. Currently, I am in my second year of medical school at Baylor College of Medici...

I am a graduate of Washington University in St Louis, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in History with minors in Humanities and Anthropology. Since graduation, I have worked as a tutor, teacher, and director of tutors at a charter public middle school in Boston. During this time I also received ...
