Graduated from East Carolina University with degrees in Biology and Chemistry. After a gap year which I volunteered and rediscovered my passion for animals, I spent a semester as a Teaching Assistant for Biology Lab, while also studying Bioinformatics.It was during this time that I began holding study sessions, individual and group, and increased my ability to teach and make complex information more digestible.Since then, I have worked as a personal tutor for an elementary school client and reenrolled in Graduate School studying Biochemistry and Molecular Biology.Helping others has always been a passion of mine and will continue to be. My pursuit of knowledge is only just beginning as my end goal is to acquire a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree.

Hi, I'm Kristy and I recently graduated from Georgetown University with a degree in International Economics. I have almost two years of experience tutoring middle and high schoolers in math and SAT prep, and was an economics teaching assistant for at Georgetown last year! I love breaking down intimidating concepts into something you can actually see and work with, and I truly believe that with the right instruction, any student can succeed. I'm excited to help each student however I can.

Teaching is absolutely inspiring. Nothing beats the "ah ha" moment a student gets when he or she realizes that they can achieve what they deemed "impossible." People are capable of much more than they think, and, often, it just takes a little encouragement for people to reach new potentials. I want my students to make connections and discover how much fun learning can be.As a tutor I strive to engage, challenge, and inspire growth in my students.

Hi everyone! My name is Justin and I'm excited for the opportunity to be your tutor. Tutoring is something I have always loved to do, and I plan to become a college professor someday. Helping others achieve their goals is something I truly strive to do as much as possible, and there is no better way to do this than through tutoring.I recently graduated from Georgetown University (Summa Cum Laude) with a B.S. in Human Science and a minor in Music. This Fall, I will be starting a Masters program in Music History at the Hartt School of Music. Throughout college, I took multiple upper-level courses in the basic sciences and music, and would be capable of tutoring in these fields. My strongest subjects are music history/theory and anatomy/physiology, although I also have a lot of tutoring experience in general chemistry. All of the students who I tutored during college saw improvements in their grades and test scores with my tutoring.I have plenty of availability for tutoring, both online and in-person, and would love the chance to help you succeed in your academic work. Feel free to contact me with any questions or to set up a tutoring session!

I recently received my masters at the Graduate School of Journalism at Columbia University, and I grew up in Washington, D.C. I went to college at Georgetown University and have loved reading and writing my entire life. While I enjoy tutoring all kinds of essay skills, english literature is my favorite. I love poetry, plays, and fiction classics -- everything from Shakespeare to Shelly! My dad is a lawyer, and has taught me the value of strong argumentation skills. I have published everything from short stories to journalistic articles, in my college paper or at The New York Times. Most students come to me for my encouraging spirit and fun attitude because I always want to make learning a positive experience. Writing an essay or dissecting a book really boils down to the art of storytelling -- and I think, no matter your age, we all can appreciate to the transformative power of stories. Not everyone finds their words easily, and some even feel ashamed to take time to express themselves. But I was a ballet dancer for ten years, and I think my rigor, determination, and sense of balance passes on to my students. I like to explore the city with my friends, see a play on the weekend, or take a book to central park for an afternoon of reading.

Hello, my name is Alexis! I am currently a rising junior at Georgetown University, where I am double majoring in Government (Political Science) and English. For the summer, I am home in Phoenix, Arizona where my schedule is incredible flexible and I would love to work with you!I began tutoring during high school and absolutely fell in love with it. At Georgetown, I work at our university writing center, helping students of all years with the writing process. This Fall, I will be presenting my own research on tutoring at the National Conference on Peer Tutoring and Writing. My own tutoring style derives from my experience as a student and the techniques I have been taught in a class I took to become a writing tutor. I firmly believe in fostering a tutor-tutee relationship which thrives off of the strengths of the tutee, using what they do best to help them succeed. I also pride myself in being able to easily adapt to different learning styles and am always filling my toolbox with new ways of approaching our material.My subject areas include mostly the humanities (reading, writing, history, literature). I am also able to help in middle school math as well as test prep for AP US History/Literature, the PSAT, and SAT.I look forward to working with you soon!

I am a Masters graduate in Biotechnology/Biomedical Sciences from Georgetown University and undergraduate from Lafayette College with a focus in Biology/Bioengineering. In my tenure of work, I have participated in 4 research labs pertaining to oncology, drug development and genetics. Outside of the laboratory, I have worked in pharmaceuticals, investment banking and tech startups where I currently hold a position in management consulting. In my free time I enjoy reading biographies, traveling the world, playing soccer/basketball and hiking. I love to tutor because I think education is one of the most important pillars to success. I started tutoring in high school and haven't stopped, constantly learning as much from the students I mentor as they learn from me.

As. a former teacher and current actuary, I know what it takes to both make my students successful, but also what it takes to excel in the business world. I will develop a custom learning schedule, curriculum, and methodology for any student, so they can pass their AP Statistics course, probability courses, and actuarial exams.

I am a college graduate from Georgetown University. I have a large range of teaching experience from very young to adult. I have tutored students one-on-one and worked as an ESL Instructor at a college. I LOVE teaching!

I specialize in high-level GMAT diagnostic and execution coaching for stalled high-achievers. I don't just teach content; I identify the execution, timing, and decision-making patterns preventing score improvement and build customized strategies to break through plateaus under time pressure. After years of coaching GMAT students across a wide range of score levels, I've found that many advanced students underperform not because they lack ability, but because they approach questions inefficientlytreating each problem like a new puzzle instead of recognizing recurring execution patterns quickly and systematically. I earned my MBA from Georgetown University and worked as a former Sony engineer, bringing a data-driven and strategic mindset to every session. With 100+ five-star reviews, I've guided GMAT students to break barriersnot just raising scores, but shifting their confidence and thinking. As a result, many of my students have earned admission to elite MBA programs, including UCL

I recently graduated Magna Cum Laude from Georgetown University with a B.S. in Global Health and a minor in Economics. Tutoring and mentoring students has been important to me, from tutoring refugees in English to helping aspiring Georgetown students with college essays. Though I tutor a broad range of subjects, I'm especially passionate about helping with English, college application essays, and SAT Writing. I remember firsthand how challenging the college application process can be, so I find it fulfilling to help students discern their own narratives and share techniques to help them succeed. As a 10-time tournament champion in Impromptu speaking, I also love coaching students in public speech and helping them build their confidence!

Hi, my name is Emily. I graduated with honors from Georgetown University with a degree in Comparative Literature, Linguistics and Chinese. I am passionate about all things language, from the measly article to the next great American Novel. While working for a while in the private sector and as a freelancer abroad, I realized that what I was truly passionate about was mentoring and teaching people, sharing my love of language and literature. Thus far, I have worked with English as a Second Language learners in Taipei, and worked as a freelance English Editor of resumes, college application essays, cover letters and more. As a tutor, I am always looking for new fun and creative ways to engage students in the material, to help them see the ins and outs of how language is put together whether its a sentence or a five-paragraph persuasive essay.My academic background in linguistics and comparative literature provide not only a grounding in the English language and the finer points of grammatical analysis, but also gives me a foundation in literary theory. I am well equipped to work with students through the analysis of dense passages of fiction and non-fiction, as well as parse out any grammatical and usage errors they may have. This gives students the opportunity to understand the how and why of language as opposed to simply memorizing arbitrary rules.Finally, with a Chinese minor from Georgetown and a Test of Chinese as a Foreign Language (TOCFL) proficiency of 5 (fluent), and having learned Chinese myself as a foreign language, I feel equipped to help beginner to intermediate learners of Chinese accomplish their language goals in reading, writing, speaking, and listening. I have participated and observed in many language classrooms and am prepared with strategies to overcome common problems in Mandarin learning (the characters, the tones, the "lack of" grammar etc.).Outside of tutoring, I am still dedicated to education and am pursuing a masters of education at the Relay Graduate School of Education. When not thinking about how to further knowledge in the next generation I enjoy cooking, dancing, and watching foreign cinema.Ultimately, what is most important is putting the improvement of the student first, and to that end I am always receptive to comments and suggestions. Please do not hesitate to ask questions, we cannot learn without inquiry!

I am a graduate from Georgetown University, where I received a Bachelor of Arts degree in Mathematics with a minor in Music. I'm currently pursuing a Master's of Science in Business Analytics at Carnegie Mellon University. I've been tutoring since I started high school, focusing on mathematics and writing. Throughout my college career I was employed both privately and by Georgetown University to tutor peers and high school students in the Washington, D.C. area. I worked with students taking classes in all levels of mathematics falling under Algebra, Calculus, Combinatorics, and Problem Solving.I've always been passionate about mathematics. With a strong academic background in English and writing, I communicate abstract mathematical ideas in a way that is best suited to each of my students' needs. At some point in the (hopefully) near future, I'd like to go to back to school in order to then work full-time as a college professor of mathematics.Aside from academics, I'm passionate about music and soccer. I've been a guitarist for most of my life, and am eager to pick up and learn about any instrument I can get my hands on. I've also played soccer for about as long as I can remember. Most recently, I play in pickup leagues around Pittsburgh. In college, I was fortunate enough to captain the Georgetown University Men's Club Soccer team for two years.Thank you, and best of luck in your academic endeavors!

Georgetown grad, 45yrs old. I love mentoring students and watching them accelerate, not just excel. I truly take an interest in them and adjust to the way they learn.

Before Varsity Tutors, I worked with underprivilieged students from kindergarten through 8th grade in all subjects. I often find that students struggle because they lack confidence which leads to test anxiety and frustration. I try to address these issues by teaching in a way that is in line with the student's learning style. Although I maintain high expectations for all students, I like to create a fun and relaxed environment to make it as least stressful as possible.I am currently taking prerequisite classes in preparation for a graduate program in Speech-Language Pathology. I graduated in 2010 from Georgetown University with a degree in linguistics with a concentration in education.

Education truly is the social justice issue of our time; no other endeavor is so far-reaching in its ability to precipitate change in all other areas of society. It is this principal that drives me as an educator; as a teacher and tutor I am entrusted with the privilege of sharing the gift of culture, conversation and critical-thinking.I have been a primary school dual language teacher in New York City for the past 4 years. I have a Bachelor's Degree in Linguistics from Georgetown University and a Master's Degree in Education from Hunter College, which I received through the New York City Teaching Fellows program.My teaching and tutoring practices are based in student-led, performance-based learning that allows students to work towards their goals in at their own pace and according to their own personal learning needs.

In college, I worked with both Georgetown University Young Scholars, a mentoring program and DC Reads, a program specifically designed to eradicate illiteracy in students of DC Public Schools. Through these programs, I worked with students from the age of 5 to 18 years old.

I am a retired orthopedic surgeon who had been in clinical practice for close to 40 years before retiring. I did my undergraduate training at the University of Southern California (go Trojans) graduating with a BS in Biology. I attended the Georgetown University School of Medicine and went on to specialty training in Orthopedic Surgery at UC San Francisco finishing up with the United States Army Medical Corp with the rank of Major. I have been practicing orthopedic surgery since then until retirement. In surgery, there has always been the saying "see one, do one, TEACH one. Education has always been important in my family; and all four of my kids are graduates of the UC system. They all experienced the trials and tribulations of SATs, National Merit, AP courses, etc. In my spare time I have built lifted off-road four wheel drive vehicles, every desktop computer we have owned from components, have mastered unusual computer programs such as AutoCad, and have welded together a utility trailer that even passed California inspection. I plan to learn a musical instrument. The big advantage I would have in the subject matter of human anatomy, biology and physiology is the fact that there is no closer proximity to the subject matter than having actually working on the anatomy when the anatomy is still alive.

I believe in the growth mindset, meaning that every student has the capacity to achieve and grow. I tell my students that I believe in them, and that with hard work and my support, they can achieve and even exceed their goals. When students believe this as well, they are more motivated to work hard because they believe that hard work begets results.I think it is critical to build a relationship with my students, so that I can identify the methods and strategies that will be most effective for them. I begin by getting to know my students on a personal level, learning about their passions, what motivates them, what frustrates them, and which learning strategies have been successful for them. I believe I need to earn their trust by being on time, prepared, and consistent in my work as a tutor. By building this personal relationship, I have the information I need to customize our tutoring experiences in a way that will be most effective for my students.My professional experience is varied; I run a business bringing creative problem-solving to education. I am currently teaching a college course, I was a 7th grade English teacher, and I have worked as a marketing executive and design thinking consultant, and own my own business.

I am a graduate of Georgetown University where I earned my Bachelor of Science degree in International Politics with a concentration on Foreign Policy. I also earned a Certificate in Latin American Studies and am a member of Pi Sigma Alpha, The National Political Science Honor Society.

Additionally, my time as an 8th Grade Science teacher here in Dallas has prepared me for the curriculum and challenges facing students in the area.

I see Physics as the science that allows all the other sciences to occur, and I find it helpful to use Physics demonstrations when studying the subject. When it comes to tutoring, I believe that whoever is doing the talking is doing the learning, so my students will be doing the leg work when it comes to their learning. I believe that every student can achieve success in school; each student just learns at their own pace and in their own way. When I have free time, I enjoy reading a good book, playing a game of tennis, or participating in or watching theatrical events.

I assisted in tutoring and training other corps members in specific skills while in AmeriCorps, and in my various roles in the games industry, I put together and led a variety of training sessions for new hires, as well as provided coaching and mentoring for colleagues. I understand the stress and fear that students can feel going into standardized testing, especially a large exam like the LSAT, and am passionate about helping others feel prepared going into their tests so that they can perform their very best. I work to empower my students to not only develop their skillsets in the areas that they will be tested on, but also to help them feel capable and confident in their abilities. I hope to help my students find bits and pieces of the exam that they can have fun with to make it feel more achievable.

I currently play lacrosse for Georgetown and coach locally. My experiences on teams and as a collegiate athlete have taught me communication, leadership, and organizational skills.These experiences have shaped much of my tutoring philosophy. I believe that patience and positive motivation are crucial to helping students achieve their academic or athletic goals. At the same time, as a student and athlete I know that practice and repetition are the keys to fully understanding whatever material is being taught. As a tutor, it is my responsibility to offer a variety of tools and concepts in order for a student to find the best method to reach their academic goals and to build confidence.
