Award-Winning Tutors from Georgia State University

In December 2014 I graduated with honors 2014 from Georgia State University, majoring in Early Childhood Education. Helping students and serving as a positive male role model is my primary goal. While I tutor a broad range of subjects and age groups, I am most passionate about English, Literature, Math, and Science. During my time at Georgia State I worked as a student intern for two and half years, teaching in elementary classrooms and ESOL classes. I have worked with students of all backgrounds and learning styles, and I believe it is important to connect and relate to students in order for content to appeal to them. In my spare time I like to swim, play volleyball, draw, write, read, play card games, video games, and collect comic books.

I have a B.A. in History from Georgia State University and taught my own four children via a home school curriculum, as we traveled the world for my previous job. During that time, we lived in seven countries on four continents and visited dozens more. It was a great learning experience for all of us, but we are happy to be back home. Additionally, I taught at a school for gifted and above average students in Indiana. My courses included Algebra, History, Geography, Economics, and Personal Finance.I tutor Math, History, Reading, Writing and a few other subjects; however, my favorite subject to tutor is math. It is also the one subject where, I feel, a good tutor/teacher can impact a student's performance the most.I believe learning should be fun. If you aren't having fun, you're doing it wrong. I like to laugh and do it often. I have always tested well, particularly in math, but I am not bookish, stale, or boring. I have four children - all teenagers! So I am a little crazy; however, I have developed a large amount of patience.

My divine purpose is to help, guide, and assist young people in achieving their goals and making their dreams a reality. On your hero's journey, I am your mentor and assistant. I am a published author with over 12 years of experience teaching English in middle and high school classrooms. I have a proven track record of success with underachieving students. I have two degrees: one in Teacher Education and in English from Georgia State University. My areas of strength are writing, reading comprehension, and literary analysis.

I graduated from Georgia State University with a B.S. Biological Science degree and a minor in chemistry. I will teach you concepts from the ground up in an easy to understand way which will resonate with you.

I am a recent graduate of Emory University, where I received my BA in Psychology and Linguistics, while also majoring in Chinese. I am currently working towards my MA in Applied Linguistics at Georgia State University. I primarily tutor reading comprehension and writing because I have a passion for both of these skills. My goal is to have every student love writing and reading as much as I do. I have experience with working with students all over the world, from China to Saudi Arabia to the United States. My approach to tutoring is to make it as personalized as possible and have me and the student work collaboratively to get to the answer, instead of the student being told the answer and be expected to understand it.Overall, I hope to spread my passion for education and learning to more students. I look forward to helping you!

My passion is connecting with students so they can achieve greatness. My outgoing personality in class gets students talking and having fun, and I am highly responsive to personalities and learning styles. Need me to draw it out? Sure! Explain it 10 different ways?

I teach because I believe children are the future and that you must be the change you want to see. As a third year elementary school teacher, I am extremely passionate and dedicated to the enrichment and enlightenment of all students. I believe education is most effective when students are met where they are and can connect to the content to apply it to their everyday lives. I enjoy teaching through the use of hands-on activities, project-based learning, and a student-centered approach. I received my Bachelors of Science in Early Childhood Education in May of 2015 from Georgia State University. Shortly after conferring my degree, I continued to pursue education to obtain my Masters of Science in Elementary Mathematics and Reading from Walden University.

Learning Spanish from a young age has allowed me to see the world from an entirely new cultural lens and, more importantly, has enabled me to view American or Western culture from an outside point of view. Doing so has made me realize that the United States does not put enough emphasis on learning a second language, specifically Spanish. As a result, we are limited in how we see and interact with the world and other nations.I wish to take my experience studying Spanish and completing a Bachelors of Arts in Spanish to help others explore Hispanic culture by studying the Spanish language. I would concentrate on teaching grammar, with an emphasis on its communicate and conversational application, Spanish conversation, and critically analyze both American and Hispanic cultures as a whole to be able to draw distinctions and gain awareness about their own cultural lens. Furthermore, I wish to draw on my experiences with my TEFL certification, such as creating and carrying out lesson plans about teaching English, towards creating authentic, relevant lesson activities for tutoring Spanish so that they can reinforce and relate to the content they may have gone over in class. Lastly, my experience working in customer service and with children as a chess coach has given me valuable interpersonal skills which I use to be able to connect with students and focus on strengthening the learning strategy that works for them.

I graduated from Argosy University in 2010 with a M.A. in Counseling. I graduated from Georgia State University in 2006 with a B.S. in Psychology and a minor in Chemistry. I have worked with a lot of children and adolescents as a counselor in the mental health field. I believe that being able to communicate well helps in the mentoring relationship. I am open to mentoring in different ways and incorporating different platforms that can help the student better understand and apply the subject at hand.

My passion for helping students understand the fundamentals of math comes from knowing how intimidating math can be!

I believe I am building the future, one student at a time. I pursued a Master's Degree in Accounting at GA State University in 2016 even though I had a great job and had been working for over fifteen years. That is how passionate I am about learning and education. And while in graduate school, I made friends with several new students taking higher level courses with me in order to meet the requirements to take the CPA exam. And these friendships lead to growth and wisdom for many of us. While I taught them Accounting from a real world perspective, they taught me Technology. Tutoring and mentoring these students brought me great satisfaction because I truly believe that a solid educational foundation leads to confidence and success at work and in life. It then became my passion to tutor students in Accounting, not just to get good grades, or pass the CPA exam, but to use that knowledge to achieve their goals at work as well. My tutoring style is tailored to the individual with an emphasis on their objectives. I also work part time educating and supporting small businesses with their Accounting and Quickbooks questions.

I am passionate about helping students learn, reach their goals, and have some fun in the process. I am a speech-language pathologist by training with five years of prior research experience studying language recovery after stroke. I received my Bachelor's degree from Rice University and my Master's at Georgia State University. I have successfully helped students achieve their academic dreams with higher SAT/ACT scores and top-of-the-class grades. My teaching philosophy is student-centered, interactive, and individualized to each student's goals, needs, and strengths.

I'm a high school science teacher who's been working in classrooms around the world for more than 15 years, teaching high school science, AP Physics, IB Physics, and A-Level physics. I believe anyone can be successful in this subject, and nothing makes me happier than helping my students reach that "a-ha!" moment when questions that seemed impossibly difficult suddenly become understandable. I believe in finding the right approach for everyone, and understand that people learn in many different ways.

Teaching is my passion. I was fortunate enough to discover this upon graduating from college, and every job I have had since involves teaching of some kind. I always wanted to be an English teacher, and I realized my dream in 2006. Since then, I have come to find that my favorite type of work is helping students achieve a level of reading comprehension that helps them not only understand critical passages, but also real-world materials. I think in English classes, we assume that students do always get the main idea, but as I keep teaching, I realize that reading critically is a skill we must work on. I am constantly sharpening my skills in helping students become better readers, and I am excited about the prospects of working with new students, as they help me learn even more about my teaching.

Quite simply my passion is literature: I hold two degrees in creative writing (a B.F.A. and an M.A.) and write poetry, fiction, critical essays, and creative non-fiction. While completing my masters from 2012-2014, I tutored students at my university's writing center. It was there that I discovered another of my passions: helping students who are eager to learn. My profoundly meaningful experience as a tutor led me to join Varsity after graduation.I believe in the importance of writing correctly, expressively, and effectively. Being able to express oneself precisely is vital for students of all disciplines, and indeed for all people who are involved in the difficult process of navigating human relationships. Achieving this precision, however, easier said than done. As a tutor, I am committed to helping students express themselves with as much creativity and uninhibitedness as possible while also staying true to the constraints of the English language. I believe that I am able to do this by employing the conversational method of pedagogy: asking questions, prodding students to push themselves creatively and intellectually, and attending to the details of their written work. By submitting ourselves to this process, we not only improve the quality of the essay, we improve as writers, thinkers, and communicators.
