As a dedicated tutor of experience in various subjects, I am committed to fostering academic growth, instilling confidence, and igniting a passion for learning in every student I encounter. My approach to tutoring is rooted in a deep understanding of subject matter coupled with a personalized teaching style tailored to meet individual needs and objectives.

I'm a former high school English teacher and college counselor from Chicago enrolled at a graduate writing program at the University of Minnesota. I most love helping students discover their power and voice through college essays and projects for their literature courses, but I also love helping students grow in their reading skills and other classes.I believe that every learner has the ability to grow if a good teacher or tutor pushes him or her along the way. I try to do that through first getting to know the student and then empowering him or her through modeling and questioning to get to core understanding. I like to also use humor and a lot of patience.
Working in the educational industry has been the best thing that ever happened to be. I am very passionate about the success of students and the general excellence of the entire institution at large. Seeing students excel in the things they do, inspiring students' interest in their academic and social work, maximizing students' individual performance in their school work, and instilling a sense of self-worth among all students are the things I thrive for in my career. It is my honor to work with wonderful staff members, teach students, serve an institution/district that maintains highly educational standards, and also provide students with opportunities for diverse and personal growth.I have a Master of Arts in Secondary Education Degree with an Endorsement in TESOL (Teaching English to Second Language Speakers). I graduated with honors from Liberty University in May 2017. I am currently doing my Doctorate in Leadership in Education and Administration. I currently serve as an ESL (English as a second language) teacher/educator/coach in schools serving grades K-12.I have a great passion for children. I am currently working as a home instructor for Hamilton County schools in Ohio. I also work with Fairfield City Schools ESL (English as a Second Language) department for after school and summer school programs. My experience and some daily job duties is to assist and put together creative lesson plans, teach ESL and regular classroom curriculums, create schedules, tailor instructions to meet various student's individual needs, work with students from grades Pre K-5 with their vocabulary development, fluency, articulation and comprehension skills, act as a liaison between students, family, school and community, implement detailed student evaluations with highly praised instructional delivery, help administer standardized tests, track students progress against state standards, work together and coordinate with other teachers, administrators, parents, provide effective classroom management, among others.I am an enthusiastic volunteer and a reliable team player. Together with other staff members, I helped organize and grow after school programs such as homework club, cultural events, tutoring clubs, big brother/sister mentoring club, English, math, and science clubs. I am great with technology, from Microsoft Office Suite/Windows, Power Point, Smart board operation, Excel, among many others.
Education and teaching has been my passion from a young age. I would trade my recess times in elementary school to go into classrooms and just watch teachers and volunteer as a student helper. I have enjoyed working in many positions in education, such as a teacher, educational director, mentor, and program evaluator to name a few. While each position was different, they were all about making sure that learning was fun and engaging for every single student. My favorite position was helping teachers teach and providing support in making the learning environment come alive. . Being able to go into the classrooms and share fun strategies with teachers such as lesson activities, making up learning songs, and connecting learning to real world experiences, was and is truly rewarding. Being an educator for both students and teachers is an amazing position to hold. However, the greatest treasure that I have found is the learning and growth that I receive from each student and teacher that I am able to work with.
I am 24 years old, and I am a former 7th grade math teacher in the Bronx. I have a deep passion for math, and I was fortunate enough to be able to major in it in college. I love using math to solve problems in the real world, but more than this, I love teaching it. I get immense joy in helping students learn the basics of math and I find great stratification in watching students discover the amazing secrets that math holds.
Education is the most important thing; we can loose everything, but nobody can take what we have learned. We can learn from books or from life and all that information will be useful someday. Education is what makes us different from everyone else and takes the veil that covered our eyes and shows us the truth. It can be painful sometimes, but it is better than to live in obscurity.
I teach High School algebra in NYC. I have a Bachelors in Mathematics and I'm currently a Grad students at CUNY Lehman College, with concentration in Math Education. I have great passion for teaching and have been an educator since 2012.
I have 3 years of teaching experience, I am a certified Special Education teacher in the City of New York. I have a bachelor of arts in History from the College of Mount Saint Vincent, and i also have a Master of Science in Special Education from Lehman College. My GPA average at Lehman was a 3.4 upon graduation. After graduating, I had also intended on going back to school for nursing, so I took a few prerequisite courses in order to qualify for the program. I completed Anatomy and Physiology I&II, Organic Chemistry, and Microbiology. My non-matriculate GPA is a 3.6. I have taught in the south Bronx, the north Bronx, and most recently in Yonkers Public Schools.Yonkers Public Schools has a program funded by the city that allows for in home tutoring to be made available to students who were either displaced from school for some reason or students who are new to the district. I was a tutor in this program for two years, and I had complete and utter success. I had one student that had a brain operation that was out of school for 3 months from April until the end of the year. We studied together 3 times a week for her Global History Regents Exam and she passed her exam with a 92 - highest in the district in ages.I take excessive pride in building relationships with my students and their families. It allows the teaching process to be that much easier when everyone in the room has a sense of accountability. I can bring a level of success to your students that will really speak for itself and further contribute to the success the company has already experienced.
My goal is to educate today's youth to become tomorrow's innovators and leaders. I am currently in my 8th year of teaching with two Masters in Education. Additionally, I have been working with adolescents directly for the last six years. I look forward to a great relationship with you.
I'm a graduate of the City University of New York. I received my Bachelor of Science (BSc) in Computer Science and my Master of Science (MSc) in Mathematics from Lehman College and The City College of New York, respectively. Growing up, like many other students, I struggled learning math. When I was 10 years old, my mom hired a private tutor to help me with my 4th grade math class. So I know what it feels like to be the only person in the classroom who feels left out because they're falling behind their peers in grasping new material. I get it. This is why I decided to pursue tutoring because I can empathize with students who are struggling, and love to see how, with guidance and support, their knowledge and self-confidence increase. With my calm, patient, non-judgmental, and friendly personality, I've successfully helped dozens of students overcome their confusion, fear, and apprehension for math over the past 5 years. I'm confident I can help you, too! I'm currently available to tutor pre-algebra, algebra, & pre-calculus. In my free time, I enjoy gaming, lifting, playing chess, and volunteering at my local church. I'm also a huge fan of the original Yu-Gi-Oh series!
With over 20 years of attending school regularly, receiving a free public school education, and making every effort to achieve in all areas of my education, I know what it means to be a successful teacher.My teaching career encompasses substantial student diversity, including elementary, middle school, and college students from different cultural backgrounds, both one-on-one and in classroom setting. In several instances, students were in my class only because they were required to take it. In spite of this, I succeeded in instilling in many of them a respect for the subject and a grasp of the fundamental principals. Because of my technical experience, I am comfortable using a combination of technology and traditional teaching methods to communicate mathematical concepts to students and have successfully done so throughout the past few years.I firmly believe that every child is entitled to an enriching education, respect, and professionalism. My goals are to motivate students in ascertaining their inner strength, abilities and activities that truly inspire them. I aim to provide a stimulating learning environment that fosters confidence and encourages children to reach their full potential. I take the responsibilities of an educator very seriously and will work hard to develop mutual trust and respect from the administration.Along with my skills, I will bring a creative, positive energy to your school, accompanied by a desire and willingness to work with others to achieve a common goal. With strong communication, organizational, and classroom management skills, I am confident that I am a strong math tutor.

Hi! I'm Patrick, and I've been teaching and tutoring chemistry and science for over 13 years, including Honors Chemistry at Stuyvesant High School in NYC. My teaching style is step-by-step, student-centered, and focused on helping students understand why concepts work instead of just memorizing formulas. I'm passionate about making difficult science concepts feel manageable, helping students build confidence, improve performance, and feel less intimidated by chemistry.
I am a graduate of CUNY Lehman College where I received my Bachelor of Arts in Sociology with a minor in Early Childhood Education. I have over 10 years of experience working with children and young students in a variety of different roles and settings; teacher, tutor, nanny, and intern. I have tutored young children in head start programs to improve their English and have assisted in literacy and writing readiness for preschoolers in a preschool cooperative in Brooklyn, NY. After extensive travel throughout Southeast Asia and Mexico, I have learned and have come to appreciate the value of the English language and the role it plays around the world.

With a B.S. in Developmental Psychology and preschool education training from Cornell University and a M.Ed in International Education from Harvard University, I became an elementary school teacher at the United Nations International School in New York City. I loved teaching here because of the multicultural atmosphere. I loved interacting with international students and learning about different cultures.I presently tutor at the elementary school level and I especially love teaching math because it's like puzzles to figure out. I use many visual aids and really believe in breaking down everything to the basics and my motto is review, review and review. I believe it's important to go over things because we all forget and that's ok.
I am a recent college graduate and hopeful medical student looking to provide tutoring in math, chemistry (general and organic) and physics, from the middle school level up to the undergraduate level. As a volunteer tutor for Reading Partners, I helped students in grades 5-8 strengthen their literacy skills. I tutored students at the Science Learning Center at Lehman College. Here I assisted students in the areas of general and organic chemistry for nursing and science majors, as well as general physics. From this experience I earned a CRLA (College Reading & Learning Association) Level II Tutor Certification. I also held biweekly Supplemental Instruction workshops for both semesters of general chemistry, organic chemistry, and general physics, in which I worked closely with the instructor to develop session plans and questions to teach the students to think critically and become independent learners. I am currently a Adjunct Lecturer of chemistry at Lehman College.
I am a graduate of CUNY Lehman College. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Linguistics with a double minor in French and Japanese Culture. After receiving my degree, I had the opportunities to travel and live in Japan, South Korea and the Philippines. I taught English at Technical High School in Tokyo to prepare Japanese youth for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, and catered to students from all levels (kindergarten to adults) in a private institute in Daejeon, Korea to help improve their conversational English. In my experience, helping struggling students prepare for the EIKEN (an English Proficiency Standardized Test), we always seem to have the most fun prepping for the interview stage of the exams. While I can tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about Spanish, French, History and Linguistics. My passion and discipline for learning foreign languages were the driving forces I was able to achieve fluency for some of the languages I took the effort to learn to this day. These are the same core values I also want to instill in all of my students. By inspiring them to achieve their goals and reminding them the importance of discipline and consistency, success is sure to follow. Some of my interests include learning more about world history and different cultures, traveling, and playing soccer.

I firmly believe learning any subject matter is not tied only to the classroom. There are so many resources that are now readily available to be able to comprehend and dialogue to. As a tutor I believe it is not just my responsibility to provide material and ideas to get the student to understand but to be able to find the energy and motivation to stay focused and get through the lesson as quickly and efficiently as possible. The ability to be able to engage to something new and finding meaning to finally understand something we are having trouble comprehending, is equally rewarding as it is a confidence booster. The more fun we can make the lesson the more memorable the information being given can be. Together we can make this happen, adapting to your learning style and any opinion you may have that may help you retain what is most important. I'm here to help every step of the way, catering to any type of information that is being sought.

I have been a highly skilled middle school science teacher for the past three years in New York City public schools. This experience enables much familiarity with the standards and curriculums that some students may need help with in all subject areas. After tutoring some students I realized that they performed better in numerous tasks since they gained confidence and skills from our sessions. I believe that working one-on-one could develop better understanding of a subject since the tutor and student will work to meet specific goals with strengths and weaknesses kept in mind.
I have been an elementary school teacher for over twenty years. I love helping children learn new skills and gain confidence as readers and writers.

Greetings my fellow students, I am Mr. Mateo and I have worked with inner city elementary and middle school students professionally for 9 years and I graduated with my Masters of Science in Education from Lehman College and I have my Bachelors Degree in History From St. John's University. I have worked diligently with students and staff alike inside and outside of the school setting. For my skills, I can say that I am bilingual and fluent in both English and Spanish, build social and emotional learning among students of color and whom need emotional support. Thus, I have worked with students who were English Language Learners and of whom had disabilities, in which I had to modify and make accommodations to the curriculum to meet their learning, social, and emotional needs inside and outside of the classroom. Furthermore, these experiences, in essence, will allow me to differentiate instruction and to break down today's learning curriculum standards and content that will match their interests, learning, emotional, and social needs. In turn, I believe that these attributes can bring forth a connection and growth with the students that I wish to work, mentor, and teach here at Varsity Tutors!
