As a recent high school graduate from The Lawrenceville School, I understand how stressful and difficult school can be, so my hope is to make learning easier for you! I will be attending Hamilton College in the fall with an intended major in biology. I scored a 1520 super score on the SAT. The breakdown was 720 EWR and 800 math.

I am very happy to be a part of Varsity Tutors and have the opportunity to assist others achieve their goals!A bit about myself: I graduated from Hamilton College in 2008, majoring in World Politics with a minor in Russian Studies. During my time at Hamilton, I was privileged to work with a refugee assistance group that tutored recent immigrants in English and helped them pass their citizenship exams. Working with groups of all ages I learned that establishing a comfortable environment for learning makes a big difference in helping people move beyond their discomfort in a topic and makes them more willingly to engage with the material. Providing a fun and constructive environment for learning is a strategy I believe in for anyone I tutor.After college I worked for the inventor of the Segway and coached high school baseball before moving onto my Master's program in the UK. I graduated with honors from King's College London in 2012 with an MA in Intelligence & International Security. Using my coursework and interest in local history I wrote a dissertation on the British military and political strategy in Boston before the American Revolution. My graduate studies abroad provided an excellent setting for working with students of all ages and backgrounds from around the world and increased my ability to work effectively with a diverse group of people.When I completed my dissertation I staffed a state campaign and for the last 3 years I have worked for a private non-profit focusing on issues of canine welfare. In this role I worked closely with local law enforcement and municipal governments on a variety of projects. I recently left this position to begin my service with the US Army Reserve.In my spare time I like to hike with my dog (Watson), go fishing from my kayak, watch movies, read with my 2 year old godson and spend some time at my boxing club.For me studying has always been about finding ways of completing assignments that utilize the strengths we each have. Even the most daunting tasks like a dissertation can be broken down into very manageable parts. With the right attitude and a good support system, I hope to help students find ways to approach new topics confidently and efficiently.

I have tutored students for 5+ years (since my final year of high school). I have extensive experience working with elementary, middle, and high school students. In the last 2 years, I have begun to work with first- and second-year undergraduate students.Mentorship and pedagogy were crucial to my success as a student. My ability to perform in my academic environment went hand in hand with my ability to be self-sufficient and think critically about the issues at hand. Through tech-based, visual and written tools, I aim to teach students to draw on many resources to answer any question they have, not just those at hand.I graduated from Hamilton College in May of 2023 with a Bachelor of Arts in Physics and Geosciences (double major). My academic interests include the physical sciences, mathematics (especially algebra and calculus), and space/earth/environmental science.Outside of academic, I like to play competitive online video games (LoL, Overwatch) as well as single-player management/multiplayer sandbox games (Astroneer, Space Engineers). I also am learning to garden and create pottery from scratch. I will be pursuing a graduate degree in a related physics/geosciences field within the next year or two.I look forward to working with you! Reach out with any questions about my teaching style and/or if you are curious if I tutor a specific subject that is not listed on my profile. :)

I am a graduate of both Teachers College at Columbia University and Hamilton College and an experienced tutor. I received my degrees in Psychology and Education and I am comfortable with all types of learners, including students with executive functioning needs or learning needs. I have experience both on Zoom and tutoring in person. I am most experienced with students aged 5-18, especially middle school and early high school. I tutor a broad range of subjects and am happy to speak with you to see how I can best help you or your child!

I am a former middle school Instructional Assistant with a passion for mathematics and logic. I currently work as a Financial Analyst in Tech. I have 9+ years of experience applying mathematics and numerous technical skills (including Python, R Programming, Tableau, Excel, Power BI) to provide insights and build valuable products.

I am a graduate of Hamilton College in Clinton, New York, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in anthropology and English Literature in 2014. Since graduation, I have served one year as a K-2 literacy tutor with A Community for Education, and this past year I worked as a kindergarten teacher at IDEA Public Schools. I will be beginning a Masters Program in Education this fall at the University of Texas at Austin with a certification in teaching 7-12th English. My goal as a professional is to unite my love of literature with my passion for social justice to become an inspirational and effective educator of underserved preteen and teenage students. My tutoring style is very positive and encouraging, and centered around teaching my students in a way that makes sense to them. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, running, travel, and cooking.

I am a law student at Fordham University studying international business transactions with a focus on the emerging markets in Asia and Africa. I also work part-time as a paralegal at a small Chinese immigration law firm. I graduated in 2010 from Hamilton College with a B.A. in Chinese and Comparative Literature. I spent the last year in Chengdu, China on a Fulbright Grant studying the emergence of legal aid as a resource to female migrant workers.I work with students of all ages and experience levels. I specialize in humanities and Chinese language instruction. Because I am currently a student myself, I can truly empathize with students' concerns and frustrations. My passion for the subjects I tutor enables me to enthusiastically engage with students, help them discover their strengths, and find solutions to their weaknesses. I love helping students achieve their potential and explore their academic interests.I love traveling, yoga, cross country running, eating interesting food (that others prepare, unfortunately, cooking isn't a strength), and spending time with my friends.

I attended Hamilton College where I studied Biology and Government and graduated in 2012. While in college I sang in both the college choir and an all-female a cappella group. I also had the opportunity to study abroad in Tanzania where I designed and conducted an independent study project. After graduating, I moved back to the Boston area and I am currently a student at Suffolk University Law School.I have had the privilege of working with students in both academic and non-academic settings. I was a tutor for second grade students while in college and watched my students grow into confident individuals with increased reading skills. I also worked as a sailing instructor for several years at a junior sailing club where I taught introductory racing, basic navigation, and basic sailing to kids ages 8-14.I strongly believe that all students have the ability to succeed in school with hard work and dedication. Much of that capacity for success comes from students believing in themselves, and I hope to encourage students to be confident in their ability to succeed in the classroom and in life. I have a passion and enthusiasm for learning that I want to share with others. By strengthening academic development, students can also strengthen personal development and I hope to use my experiences to help students be successful and reach their goals.

I'm a rising sophomore at Hamilton College, a very small but very good Liberal Arts School in upstate New York. I really enjoy it there because of the great selection of humanities courses - which are my primary interest - and the focus on critical thinking that's placed on just about everything. I believe that critical thinking is one of the most important skills someone can learn. Most of the subjects that I enjoy - history, government, political science, philosophy, etc. - are subjects that inherently deal with concepts and creations made by mankind, and thus they reflect man's imperfect nature. The ability to analyze these concepts and creations with a mind for the why, the how, and the strengths and the weaknesses is invaluable. Analytical and critical thinking is something I will push for in all subjects that I tutor, including mathematics, as it is equally - if not more important there. I'm not always such a nerd though. I love action movies and video games the same as a lot of people my age. I love indie music and I like to jam on my guitar. I also have something of a dry sense of humor, but I appreciate any and all jokes.

I recently graduated from Hamilton College in Clinton, NY with a degree in Linguistics, and will be attending University of Memphis in the fall to pursue a Master's degree in Speech Language Pathology.I grew up in Lancaster, in Manheim Township, and was in the district's Spanish Immersion program.I believe the key to teaching is finding the method that works for each student. People learn in different ways, so teachers should be able and willing to adapt their methods as much as necessary to fit each student.I spend what free time I have writing fiction manuscripts, creating 2D and 3D art, playing with children, and rock climbing.

I'm a math tutor who focuses on helping students truly understand how math works, not just memorize steps. I believe that every student can succeed in math with the right support and approach, and I aim to make sessions clear, engaging, and confidence-building. My teaching style is patient and interactive. I break problems down into manageable steps and explain the reasoning behind each one, so students can see the "why" instead of just the "what." I also ask questions throughout sessions to encourage students to think critically and stay involved in the learning process. I work with students at different levels, whether they need help building foundational skills or tackling more advanced algebra topics. If a student is feeling stuck or frustrated, I adjust my approach, use simpler examples, and help them rebuild confidence step by step. My goal is for students to leave each session not only with the correct answer, but with the skills and confidence to solve similar problems on their own. If you're looking for a supportive and clear algebra tutor, I'd love to help!
