I am currently a full-time 5th grade math and science teacher during the school year. I have been tutoring for over 7 years now. I like to build a personal relationship with each of my clients in order to ensure a fun and effective experience. It is important to me for all of my students to grasp the concept they are struggling with, to the fullest extent. This can be accomplished by implementing a variety of strategies and methods. I look forward to working with you.

I have taught both English and computer science for years. In that time, it became obvious that individual conferences and small groups were the most effective way to learn for many of us. That led me to tutoring. Learning holds power, and I want to help others on their learning journeys. I strive myself to continue learning. I am currently learning Spanish and SQL.

I received my MBA from Northwestern University. I also have a PhD in physical chemistry from Northern Illinois University. Since graduation, I have over 20 years experience performing research and development and business consulting on a wide range of nuclear waste management, nanomaterial, and nanomedicine fields. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about chemistry, physics, biology, and math. In my experience helping struggling students is a matter of time and mentoring before they dominating a topic. I am a strong believer in preparing students in the science, technology, and engineering fields. In my spare time, I enjoy reading journals and viewing historic documentaries, music, and basketball.

I am a High School math teacher. Currently I am teaching AP Calculus, Probability and Statistics, College Algebra, and Algebra II. I started tutoring while I was getting my Bachelors degree. I worked for the college tutoring students who needed help with their math classes. Since then I have been tutoring independently and love doing it. I finished my Masters in Math Teaching in 2015. And I look forward to helping as many students as I can through Varsity Tutors.

My passion for tutoring stems from a deep-seated desire to help others grasp complex concepts that have shaped my own academic journey. With a Master's in Business Administration and a Bachelor's in Economics, I have successfully navigated all three levels of the CFA exam. I believe in fostering a supportive learning environment where each student's unique needs are addressed, allowing them to build confidence and achieve their goals. My experience in tutoring CFA subjects has taught me the importance of patience and tailored explanations, as I enjoy guiding students through their challenges and celebrating their successes. Witnessing that moment of understanding is incredibly rewarding, and it fuels my commitment to education.

I greatly enjoy working with adolescents and middle school-age students and helping them achieve their academic potential. My tutoring experience extends back more than a decade. Since early high school, I have tutored both peers and younger students. My students have included special education, gifted, English Language Learners, music/arts students and students with disabilities. I have tutored math up to Calculus AP; English Writing, Reading Comprehension and College Essay instruction; Science through AP Physics; and test preparation for GRE, ACT, SAT as well as state-mandated tests in Illinois and Michigan. Finally, I majored in and am pursuing a Master's Degree in the field of social science. The Master's in Education program at Depaul is preparing me to teach students from a variety of cultural and linguistic backgrounds at the secondary level.

Hello, I'm Annabelle! I've been writing and tutoring for around 7 years now. I'm a big believer in connecting personally with my students. I genuinely want them to succeed, and I especially love the one-on-one method of doing so. I bring positivity and upbeat energy to my lessons. The last thing I want is for a student to dread coming to class. I use articles, videos, social media, and readings to support my teaching. I am open to any needs that students have in terms of learning methods!

Hi! My name is Lily, and I'm a dedicated and patient tutor with a passion for helping students build both confidence and understanding. I believe that every student is capable of succeeding in all subjects with the right support, clear explanations, and encouragement. Whether your student needs help strengthening skills or mastering new material, I focus on making lessons engaging, interactive, and personalized. My goal is not just to help students get the right answer, but to ensure they truly understand why the answer works. As someone who is committed to academic growth, I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement. I create a supportive environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and making mistakes because that's where real learning happens. I look forward to helping students grow their skills, improve their grades, and develop confidence that extends beyond the classroom!

Hello! My name is Haile and I am a current graduate student studying mental health counseling at Adler University. As you can see from my enclosed resume, I have worked as an Elementary School Teacher’s Assistant working with children from pre-school age through fifth grade. As a teacher's assistant, I gained valuable experience planning and organizing classroom activities as well as ensuring that older students received adequate tutoring and homework help. This position equipped me with the skills to think quickly on my feet and organize a group of students. My goal as a tutor is to empower a student's personal growth and knowledge in a particular subject. I aim to work with the student to meet their needs and promote academic achievement. I strive to set attainable goals with my student that we can measure together over time.

Hello! I'm Caleb. Recent graduate from DePaul University's College of Education, and a specialist in English, Language Arts, and Creative and Analytical Writing.My degree taught me invaluable skills and strategies that I look forward to putting to good use with my students! I like to take a highly personalized approach to teaching, and I design my curricula with my students' skills, interests, and difficulties in the forefront of my mind. I'm a firm believer in reading and writing to learn, and I am deeply committed to social justice, literary arts, and equity.

I am a Math Teacher at a High School. I have taught 4th, 6th, 7th, 8th and High School Math. I have a Master's in Development Economics so I can teach Economics too. My goal is to uplift my students and get them to the next level in math and life.

Welcome! I'm a versatile tutor dedicated to adapting to your unique learning needs. My sessions are filled with fun, easy-to-understand methods, ensuring each session is vibrant and engaging. I can't wait to start our educational journey together!

Hello! My name is Nathan and I have been a teacher for two years. Before teaching full time, I was a long term substitute teacher and a tutor. The majority of my experience is with students age 5-12. I currently teach fourth and fifth grade special education.As a special education teacher, I have experience adapting text for students, using multiple types of questions to build student success, and using technology to practice skills my students are acquiring.Tutoring can be an intensely rewarding experience for students and their tutors. Learning from different people in different settings prepares students to be learning all the time! I will happily provide parents and students with additional resources, and I look forward to your child's success.

My passion is helping children learn at their own pace while building confidence and motivation! I am a mathematics expert for students in grades pre-K through 8th grade.My career includes four years working a tutoring Center Director for students ages 4-15 in reading, writing, mathematics, and study skills. For eight years I worked in private homes supporting the learning needs of each child for both their school work and individual tutoring to catch up, keep up, and get ahead. I hold a B.A. from DePaul University and M.A. from Northwestern University with an emphasis on social sciences and human development.By drawing on my background in human development, I work to promote healthy learning behaviors, habits, and mindsets while mastering new content in the ways that best suit each individual student!

I grew up in Chicago's Rogers Park and, later, Morton Grove, IL where I attended Niles West High School. After graduating, I enrolled in the Chemical Engineering program at the Illinois Institute of Technology. While an undergraduate, I was a peer tutor in General Chemistry. My favorite subjects in college always involved using computational models of chemical processes; pursuit of this niche sub-discipline afforded me an opportunity of a semester at the Brookhaven National Laboratory. Upon obtaining my Bachelor of Science Degree, I continued my education to obtain a Master's degree in Chemistry. Subsequently, employed by various companies in the industry, I worked in the fields of Semiconductors, Natural Gas and Energy, and provided technical consultancy to instrument companies and universities. Perhaps as a tribute to experience with tutoring as an undergraduate, and lecturing Chemistry as a graduate student, I had been especially adept at taking a complex scientific or mathematical concept and breaking it down to the level of comprehension by a lay person or a professional of varying discipline -- a precursor to my present occupation. After transitioning from the industry to education, I was fortunate to discover passion and fulfillment in helping students achieve their personal goals, be it basic education, performance in math and science, standardized testing, high school equivalency attainment or self-improvement through further education and more lucrative career options. In addition to being a tutor, I volunteer at the Howard Area Community center as an Adult Basic Education Tutor and at Horizons for Youth, working with at-risk urban youth.

I am currently a neuroscience student at DePaul University in Chicago. I have always enjoyed working with students. I tutored in high school and found that the opportunity to teach/tutor is also an opportunity to learn. I also took AP and Honors courses throughout high school, I was part of the National Honors Society, and was involved in the band, psychology club, philosophy club, and mathletes just to name a few. Currently, I am part of the University Honors Program and the Pathways Honors Program (for science students) at DePaul. I look forward to meeting you!

I attended DePaul University, and in December, I received a Bachelor of Arts in English, with a concentration in Literary Studies, and French. During my time at DePaul, I was a Writing Center Tutor at the University Center for Writing-based Learning. There, I worked with students from a variety of disciplines on their writing. For example, I tutored freshman who were working on rhetorical analyses as well as senior psychology majors working on personal statements for grad school. The diversity of writing I worked with fostered a sense of adaptability in me that I bring to every new tutoring session. I also tutored English Language Learners, focusing more on the technical aspects of language and honing their speaking skills. I tutor any subject under the broad spectrum of English: college writing, reading comprehension, literary analyses, speech and argumentative writing, and so forth. I also tutor French! I received my degree in French and spent a semester abroad in Paris, where I lived with a host family and soaked in the culture, like a slice of baguette bread mopping up a delicious sauce.My tutoring style is direct but not overbearing: I know how to direct students to the right answer, but I will do so through leading questions, providing examples, or referencing rules or conventions that the student has learned previously. Students possess the knowledge the obtain the right answer but sometimes have to be guided to it; that's the purpose of education and tutoring. Because education is so monumental in shaping students' futures, it's crucial that they receive the attention necessary to succeed.Because of my love of all things literary, my hobbies include reading, writing, and attending literary events such as poetry and fiction readings. I also love to dance and to play piano; anything musical interests me! I am a certified Francophile: French food, movies, and culture absolutely excite me, and I love to share my knowledge and experience with others!

In 2015 I graduated from DePaul University with a degree in Chemistry. During the course of my degree I taught multiple classes and was a walk-in tutor for the Science and Math learning center.In my years of being a teacher and a student I've found there is always more than one way to explain any given subject. Moreover,since everyone comes from a different background some explanations make more sense than others to different people. With me as your tutor I will find a way to explain science and math concepts that make the most sense to you.

I love to share my knowledge of the political process and my love for history and philosophy with others. Language is very important to me and I hate it when words are mispronounced and misspelled. My interests are singing, movies, history and television, as well as politics and current events.

Using my experience in program initiatives, optimizing the learning atmosphere and promoting a safe environment, I have a proven record of exceeding my goals and expectations set. The use of both Data Driven Instruction and Data Driven Decision Making for planning and evaluation bring goal setting and actualization together in my teaching. I believe my use of effective verbal and non- verbal communication of goals and expectations positively as well as consistently has enhanced over time creating a nurturing/safe environment where learning can thrive.Education:Undergrad - Ohio UniversityGraduate - DePaul University (Chicago)Reading & Gifted Endorsements - University of North Georgia

Hey there! My name is Hannah, and I am an Educator and Activist, specializing in youth development. I have a Graduate Degree in Women's & Gender Studies and have previously worked as a high school math teacher, academic & test prep tutor, nanny, after school program coordinator, and manager of youth programs at a Chicago-based non-profit. I am Jewish, can speak some Spanish, am a trained domestic violence advocate, and love reading, cooking and traveling! I tutor multiple levels of academic Math, Spanish, and ACT & SAT prep (focusing on Math/English sections). I am also available to help with high school and college level writing, and college admissions essays. My philosophy as a tutor is that students know more than they think they do. I like to guide my students through solving problems by using their prior knowledge and experience, and by asking questions so that they can participate as much as I do. My favorite thing about being an educator is the relationships I build with my students.

Hi! I'm Shelley and I LOVE to help students learn! I am a nurse and an educator! I can take tough topics and make them easy to understand-- I helped a family member bounce back from a TWO grade-level deficit in math and reading just by teaching her some great study skills and breaking down difficult subjects using examples she could understand. Learning is for life, and educating is my passion! I'm enthusiastic, imparting fun and humor into things that one may find otherwise mundane. I'm a masters degreed Registered Nurse with experience in the ICU, telemetry, cariolopulmonary, nephrology, urology, oncology, and primary care. I graduated from DePaul University with Presidential Distinction, and I was a full time professor at the College of Nursing at Purdue; now adjunct. In addition to hands on patient care and educating, I have managed large scale outpatient medical practices in a variety of specialty areas for over 20 years. I love what I do, and I'm here to help, so let's get started!

Hi! My background includes a Bachelor's degree in English from Roosevelt University, and a Master's degree in Writing and Publishing from DePaul University. In late 2019, I had the opportunity to work as a Graduate Teaching Assistant at the College of Lake County (for an English Composition I class). I also had the honor and privilege of working as a Peer Writing Tutor for DePaul University's Writing Center. I collaborated with both Undergraduate and Graduate students of all studies/disciplines on any writing-based projects, both personal and academic. I provided writing support to clients with the goal of helping them become even more successful writers in school and beyond. Currently, I am working as tutor in a freelance capacity. Over the past year, I have worked with dozens of students on the following platforms: Tutor.com, TutorMe and Smarthinking. I helped clients with brainstorming writing ideas, providing sources, improving writing quality, and developing argumentation skills.I firmly believe that learning should be fun. Nothing motivates learners as much as fun does because it comes from genuine interest from within instead of pressure from others. Students are much more likely to invest extra time in the learning process if they enjoy it.

I am a graduate from Southern Illinois University and DePaul university. From SIU I obtained a Bachelor in Arts for Math Education. From DePaul I obtained my Master in Arts for Math Education. I can tutor with all things math related and I have worked with many students from varying degrees of ability and from grades 3rd - College. While tutoring I do my best to make sure you fully understand the material given. I am a firm believer that everyone can do math you just need to learn how. In my spare time I like to read comics and books, do DIY projects around the house, watch TV shows or play video games.

This is a passion of mine though I am happy to teach any student who needs to improve academically.

As a writing tutor and Composition and Literature professor at Wright College in Chicago for twelve years, I was dedicated to helping students at all stages of the writing process. I can help during the beginning stages when a writer may be confused about an assignment, all the way to the end when they need to polish an essay before submitting it, and all the moments in between. I cover a variety of topics and writing techniques, including thesis development, finding/citing sources, brainstorming, and proofreading for syntax, grammar, clarity, and tone. I have tutored students across the entire college curriculum, not just English: History, Biology, and even tech classes are well known to me. I also specialize in working with ESL students and high school students doing AP English Language and Composition. My educational background is a Master's degree from DePaul University in Writing and Publishing and a Bachelor's from the University of Illinois at Chicago in Creative Writing. My background, both as a student and a teacher and tutor, has led me to tailor my approach to meet each student's unique needs. I want to create the best learning experiences I possibly can, and that means listening to what my students need!

I am a student at DePaul University, working on a Bachelors of Science in Business Administration with minors in Sociology and Economics. I've been tutoring other students and helping my peers since I was in high school. I value clear and efficient communication, organization, and punctuality. I'm a proficient writer and active photographer for my personal business, Waffle Iron Photography, as well as one of my campus publications, Intersections. In my free time, I enjoy reading autobiographies and comic books, and expanding an ever-growing collection of teas.

I aim to increase understanding and retention of information as well as developing not just the skills to solve a specific problem, but the mindset needed to then solve all future problems. Also, I try and make the process as enjoyable as possible!

I am a law student and scholarship recipient at the University of Texas at Austin, a T14 Law School. In addition, I have a Bachelor's degree in Business Administration with a minor in Economics and Management from DePaul University. I am deeply passionate about helping others, and seeing that incoming and current students get the help they need to succeed in their program. I have tutored hundreds of students for the LSAT, and I believe anyone can achieve their goals with the right mentor by their side. My teaching style is friendly and personable, as I want my students to know that they can ask me anything and be heard. I look forward to helping you achieve your goals!

Hello, I have a masters degree in biology and work in the biotech industry as a research scientist.I have lived all over the country, which has been a great experience. I attended undergrad at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland. Then, I completed an AmeriCorps program working in a hospital in Los Angeles, California. I then attended graduate school at DePaul University in Chicago, Illinois.While in graduate school, I was a TA and helped several undergrads in biology. I have found that several students have the potential to do well in school. The problems they face can be due to a variety of reasons, and one-on-one tutoring is a great way to help students figure out what those problems are and find out how to master the material.Aside from my math and science interests, I enjoy hanging out with family/friends, reading, movies, traveling, and I'm down for trying almost anything. I also love dogs and have recently adopted my own puppy - a tri-colored, rough coat collie - and I'm having a great time raising him.

It's been over five years since I graduated college and I can honestly say that I miss it. I miss learning. And I miss the free and open discussion with my classmates.Not everyone's experience with school is as positive as mine was, but I don't believe that learning should be a struggle.Going to school builds an academic base for your future and it sets you up for the way you will live the rest of your life. But learning doesn't have to be a chore. I believe that, with a positive attitude and a willingness to learn, any problem can be overcome. I believe that learning how to problem-solve and how to think through your problems is more important than the rote memorization of facts. And I believe that tenacious, hardworking students make successful adults.I would love to help you in your process of learning, creative and growth.

Hi! I'm a passionate Spanish, English, and History teacher here in the Phoenix area. I have lived in Europe for 3 years and have 5 years of high school and middle school teaching experience. I have been teaching students for the last 10 years of all levels. I have many great references available and people say that I'm patient, flexible, knowledgeable, kind, and willing to go the extra mile so that the student understands the information. I am also currently completing my PhD in Spanish Linguistics.

I am a senior pre-med student at DePaul University majoring in chemistry with a concentration in biochemistry/medicinal chemistry and minoring in biology. I have previous experience as a teaching assistant and science tutor at DePaul. When I am not working or studying, I enjoy trying out new restaurants across Chicago and baking.

I am a student at DePaul University currently working toward a Bachelors of Arts in Public Relations and Advertising with a minor in Journalism. Previously in my academic career, I tutored students at a bilingual elementary school in southwest Detroit. I also worked extensively as a tutor among high school age students during my time as an upperclassman. I specialize in literature, language arts, and writing. Currently, I hold a job as a Peer Writing Tutor at DePaul University's Center for Writing-based Learning. I enjoy tutoring because it allows me to share my passion for learning and ensure that others are optimizing their educational experience. I encourage students to dig deep and form original ideas, rather than taking shortcuts. This way, lessons have a meaningful and lasting impact.

Writing clearly and efficiently is the key to effective communication. My warm and compassionate approach to tutoring empowers writers to use their resources, work within genre conventions and work through their own ideas in order to write so other people can pick up what they are putting down. Through the development of an understanding context, audience, and purpose one can learn how to master the ability to write well.

I have been tutoring since high school, when I tutored students in Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, and Chemistry. Since then, I have tutored for four years at the college level in both German and Music Theory/Aural Skills. I have also twice co-taught an intensive one-month long German 101 course, where I designed the lesson plans, and graded homework, quizzes and tests.I am a great tutor because of my broad experience in tutoring many different subjects, so that I have a wide variety of approaches to help all types of students master the material. I also believe that, in my German tutoring especially, I'm very systematic, so that my students have a strong grammar foundation on which to build further skills and concepts. I have also lived in Germany for a year, and am able to bring world-life experiences into tutoring sessions, so that I can instill in my students a desire to learn more of the German language through a glimpse of what is possible once one has a basis in the language. I also have taken German Diction classes because of my background in vocal performance, and this means that I am especially adept at dealing with difficulties in pronunciation, or when students are having trouble hearing the difference between those pesky umlauts!

I am a 2nd grade teacher and graduate student at DePaul studying Bicultural Bilingual education. I have experience with teaching, tutoring, nannying, and camp counseling. I am from Arkansas, but I am living in Chicago (Go Hawks!). Math is my favorite (and best) subject. I have also dabbled at voice and piano over the years. I look forward to working with you!

I love working with students! I love learning about students' interests and making tutoring sessions as meaningful and engaging as possible. Working through challenging subjects like reading portions of the ACT or math can actually be fun. We can learn a lot about ourselves through these experiences.I bring a love of music and sports and travel to the work I do. Honestly, everything we do can be an adventure if we approach it with the right attitude and perspective. I believe with the right support and guidance we can overcome just about any challenge we are presented with.I graduated with a Master's from DePaul University this past June with honors. I was the kid who barely squeezed out of high school. I get the struggles. But we have all the resources we need to overcome them!
