I am a graduate of Howard University. I have a Bachelor of Arts in history/ education. I have worked in education as a teacher and administrator for over 25 yrs. I love it. I enjoy tutoring of all ages. From large groups to individuals, I like the rewards of being involved in the learning process. Mathematics and test prep are my specialties. Each student is special to me. I have 2 grown children and education has always been a priority. I meet the student at whatever level they're at and together we build a steady foundation and ascend. In my spare time, I enjoy coaching, golfing, and the great outdoors.

I first started tutoring as a sophomore in high school, helping kids younger than me get through some of their tougher classes. When I was in college I continued tutoring after approached by my Biology and Chemistry professors. The one thing I enjoy most about tutoring is helping someone to achieve that breakthrough moment. Two heads are often better than one. When you get stuck on a particular concept, it's great to have someone who can help you out of that rut!
To understand my perspective on education, it is important to know my background. I am the son of a former New York City administrator and educator. I started learning math at the age of three as I was enrolled in a Montessori school as a toddler. Knowing that the quality of the education students were receiving in NYC public schools, my mother sacrificed and sent me to a private parochial school from 1st-8th grade.I tested into Brooklyn Technical High School, one of the three specialized high schools in New York City, but opted to attended a school that had a pre-med program in my borough. I took anatomy and advanced placement courses and earned a National Merit Scholarship based on my PSAT performance.I then attended the leading historically Black university, Howard University, where I majored in Biology an minored in Chemistry. I went on to take the Graduate Record Exam (GRE) and Medical College Admissions Test (MCAT), attend graduate and medical school and I received Masters and Doctoral degrees in Genetics and Human Genetics.I matriculated through the first two years of medical school and successfully passed Step 1 of the United States Medical Licensing Exam of USMLE.In addition to the concepts covered in the classes and courses, I am also very familiar with the application processes and all of the standardized tests required for entry into both graduate and medical school as well as their respective prep courses.My teaching philosophy is that any student can learn any concept if it is presented in a way that is compatible with their learning style. The concept of learning style is one that I was introduced to rather late in my academic career. However, I think this is the key and a major reason that many students struggle in school. After being introduced to the concept, I could identify the reasons that I performed so much better in high school biology than I did in chemistry.With this understanding, one of the first things I ask student I tutor is if they know what their learning style is. If they don't, recommend they use a free online assessment to find out. If you are interested in working with me and do not know what your learning style is, please take a few minutes to take a learning style assessment and find out. You will be glad you did.
I am passionate about contributing to student success and empowerment. I believe in adapting to each student's learning style and finding out what works best. With experience using Adobe Illustrator, I'm excited to help students discover the possibilities of the software and lead them to creating their own designs.
Hello! I am a recent graduate of Howard University. I received my Bachelor of Business Administration in Computer Information Systems. I have various experiences working with children for the past 5 years or so. As a volunteer at the Casserly House in Boston, Massachusetts, I tutored first to sixth graders in various subjects to strengthen academic skills as well as prepared lessons, activities, and discussion questions for children in the summer learning camp. I was also an active volunteer at the community center in Boston which allowed me to assist children during recess and field trips to promote a safe environment. I tutored middle school students to have them better understand class material and monitored students during arts and crafts projects to ensure safety and productivity. Lastly, I was a senior counselor with PBHA on Harvard University's campus for the summer where I managed my own classroom. Feel free to contact me!
I believe that fostering a genuine connection with students not only helps them learn technical skills but also ignites their passion for their chosen paths. In my teaching experiences from K-12 classrooms to college lectures I focus on guiding students to discover their true aspirations. Be creative. This approach empowers them to realize their potential and fosters a sense of ownership over their projects. I emphasize the importance of building relationships and exploring diverse opportunities. A little about me, I'm from Oakland, California and got my start assisting on music videos. From there, I got my first writers room gig script coordinating on several tv shows and miniseries. Then I was staffed on an HBO show and FBI:International. I've won two NAACP awards for my work as a script consultant on podcasts. Currently I'm teaching at DePaul while developing more ideas.
I am a recent graduate of Tulane University, where I received my Master of Science in Cell and Molecular Biology. For my undergraduate years I attended Howard University in Washington, DC, where I was a Biology major and Chemistry minor. I have traveled to the Caribbean as well as to China for study abroad programs. While a student at Howard University, I worked with DC Public Schools as an elementary and middle tutor. I was also an assigned tutor for Biology and Organic Chemistry at Howard University. I am able to help with a variety of subjects such as Biology, Chemistry, Physiology, Genetics and other basic sciences. I can also help with AP Calculus if need be. My favorite subject to tutor is Biology because I have a passion for helping students understand how living organisms work. I feel it is my strongest subject, and I know I can help committed students learn the material. My tutoring style is geared towards making the experience of studying the material enjoyable for the student. I often use mnemonics and analogies to make the information more understandable. I also promote notecards to study as it improves retention of information.I am a very outgoing, friendly, and patient individual. I am able to travel to meet with clients, and if there is still difficulty with any subject, I will offer to tutor at a library or college. My parents are both college professors, so I know the value of a great education. I will be sure to work with students until they are satisfied and feel comfortable with any subject that I teach. In my spare time, I enjoy fishing and playing sports. I was a goalkeeper for my high school and played intramural soccer in college. I also play billiards and cards with friends on quiet evenings.
I graduated from Howard University in 2011 where I received a Bachelor of Science in Biology. While at Howard University, I was selected to work as a Biology and General Chemistry tutor for all four years. After graduating, I worked for 3 years as a provider at a group family daycare center and oversaw the educational processes of the k-8 clients. I am passionate about the role that engaging supplemental education can play in building a student's self-confidence and in creating new opportunities for personal and professional success.Tutoring students is one of the most rewarding activities in which I have ever participated. Passing on my passions for knowledge and success is something I try to accomplish with each person with whom I work with. Every student deserves a tutor who will approach their needs in different and innovative ways. I accomplish this by getting to know my students as unique individuals. In this way, I can vary my teaching style to suit each student and stay open to adjusting as necessary. Teaching the sciences is one of my passions, as it is a mystery to many students but one of the largest gateways to success. Helping students with their math is also a challenging but rewarding task. With the right student-tutor relationship, I believe anything can be accomplished.My approach to teaching is that of confident comprehension of subjects, rather than reaching an answer. The student who understands why his or her incorrect answers are wrong will, in the long term, consistently arrive at the correct response. The confidence that students have in themselves plays a big role in learning, whereas fear and anxiety are a hindrance to learning and memory. This is a key player when it comes to exams as well. My main goal is thus always to help the student to learn how to confidently maneuver through problems and obstacles.I have experience tutoring elementary school, middle school, and high school students-- but I am also more than willing to tutor other age groups! I love to make learning fun, especially because schoolwork can often be frustrating and exhausting.
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.
I've been speaking up for others since I learned to speak for myself. My passion for advocacy and my abhorrence of unjust have been the main motivators and values that I hold dear to me, take with me, and implement in all work that I do. Growing up, I never advocated for myself, so seeing someone else do it , let alone a teacher, was incredibly foreign. To be collectivized with other ambitious students meant that I had to want more for myself just as they want for themselves. Now I wanna be that teacher that helps and sees the good in students, just as they saw in me.
I hold a Masters in Education (Reading Specialist), from Howard University (Washington, DC) and my earlier academic pursuit, in Speech Pathology and Elementary Education, was completed as a dual Bachelor of Science degree from Central Michigan University (Mt. Pleasant, Michigan). My 25 plus years experience in the profession of Education has been a labor of compassion, commitment, and an extraordinary experience, that led me to receive STEM Certification from Columbia University and Adams University, from NASA Endeavors Fellow Program. Since retirement from the public school systems of Washington, DC and Baltimore County Public Schools, I have tutored and mentored students from other countries, Alternative Education Programs, and Public Schools; and during the last two years, tutored online. (Which I found very exciting!) I have taught grades K-6; and 7-8.I have managed STEM programs and have received various recognition from national organizations and the Department of Education (retired Secretary of Education Arne Duncan).I am most passionate about Reading and Literacy. I have experience helping struggling students who have gaps in their reading comprehension and writing areas. I come from a family of educators, musicians, and community activists, who strengthen my knowledge for learning and having fun while learning. I try to impart this appreciation to all of my students. I enjoy reading and watching movies. I have traveled to China, Haiti, Nigeria, Mexico, and various states. When I was young, READING about far away places encouraged me to visit different areas of the world. With that experience, I felt the world was smaller than what I thought and I deserved to help improve it.
I love to teach because I love to learn. I help my students learn how to learn. Critical thinking is critical for passing certification and other standardized tests. Knowing what to do when you aren't sure of the answer is key.I passed the NC Real Estate exam on the first try.

As an Associate Professor, the one thing I like to stress is how to strive for continuous improvement. I want each student to value their educational pursuits by focusing their time and energy in the right place to be successful in their future endeavors.
As an individual, I am passionate about assisting students in being their best selves in different avenues of life, especially academics. Seeing young people become confident in a subject that they previously had difficulty in is inspiring and motivates me to help children master academics. I graduated from Howard University with a Bachelor's in Psychology. I am currently working on a Master's at Montclair State University in a Counseling program with a concentration in Clinical Mental Health. I tutor elementary school and middle school level mathematics and ELA. My favorite subject to tutor is Math because the rules are easy to explain and breakdown. My teaching philosophy is to ensure that the student would be able to complete the assignment by themselves. Personally, I enjoy reading, drawing, and painting as hobbies.
Hi, I'm Carizma! I'm currently pursing my bachelor's degrees in biology and health education at Howard University and I have been a tutor for about 3 years now! I have found a passion in teaching students, and it is something that has become a very large piece of happiness in my life. I love having the ability to work with my students to reach their academic and personal goals, as well as being able to watch them learn to excel in their lives.
I would have to say that all of my education since grade school has focused on math and science. I went to Michael E. DeBakey High School for Health Professions in Houston, Texas. It was there that I really found my niche in both science and math, where AP Physics and AP Calculus were my favorites. I later went to Howard University, in Washington D.C., where I majored in Biology, but I later discovered that I didn't quite satiate my curiosity for science. After college, I went to school part-time, at the University of Houston. While there, I completed several classes, such as Biochemistry I, Biochemistry II, Endocrinology and Human Physiology.Soon after, I was presented with the opportunity to teach at a local charter school, here in Houston. I first taught Chemistry, as a 10th grade long-term substitute and was later asked to stay to teach 9th grade Algebra. While teaching, I focused on the various learning styles of my students and played upon that constantly. While teaching, I set a new goal to continue to teach until I retire.Recently, I received a Masters of Arts in Biotechnology from Columbia University in the City of New York. While there, I continued to fulfill my love for the sciences and took several more science classes, such as Developmental Biology, Neurobiology II, and Molecular Pharmacology. After completing my last semester, at Columbia, I found that I have taken nearly thirty science classes at both the undergraduate and graduate level. I will now use all this information to teach as an adjunct faculty, in the Biology department, at a local community college. In the Spring 2013, I will teach Anatomy & Physiology I and Nutrition.Now, while tutoring, I simply wish to translate my love for both science and math to my students.
I first became introduced to tutoring my junior year in college when I received the opportunity to work with students in a failing high school. We were tasked with getting the students SAT/ACT ready and subsequently apply for college. One of my proudest moments to date was receiving the news that all students from the program had applied to college.My tutoring experience has since moved on from to a more privatized setting but the reward has remained the same. Working students to build their confidence in and outside the classroom is an indescribable gift that I am fortunate enough to possess. My tutoring style of getting to know the student and parent and developing an action plan unique to the student has proven to be successful and appreciated in the past.I am recent graduate of Howard University, B.A. in Political Science, Magna Cum Laude. I have since been accepted into law school and intend on going in the fall.
I hold a Bachelor of Science degree from Howard University, where I also gained valuable experience as a math tutor for the university's math department.

I received my B.A. degree in French and Film Production from Howard University and my M.F.A. in creative writing from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. In my spare time I enjoy reading, writing screenplays, yoga, cooking vegan and vegetarian cuisine, and spending time with family and friends.I am passionate about education because I know that as a teacher and a tutor I can make a difference in students believing in themselves and in pursuing their life's passions. Because of that, I make sure that with every student that I make that difference in each meeting and interaction with them.
Science has always been a passion of mine, especially with regards to Biology. It's what drove me to pursue a degree in Biology, and eventually Medicine. Writing has also been a passion of mine. I love to write poetry, fiction, and expository essays. As I have had to write for coursework, college admissions, and medical school admissions, critiquing and correcting papers is something I feel very comfortable with.I like to utilize my creativity in ways that have meaning. As someone who has been through a lot of schooling, I know how difficult it can be to grasp certain topics, so it takes a creative approach. I have always been a proponent of hands-on and visual learning. But I also recognize that each student has their own special way of learning--some may like visual, some may like auditory, some may like movement.I have experience teaching high school science and informally tutoring peers in Biology when I was in college. Teaching high school, I worked with lots of kids who had ADD/ADHD or were on the autism spectrum. It was rewarding to see all my students, regardless of their learning abilities or background, finally understand a difficult or challenging concept. Should you choose me to be your tutor, I look forward to bringing that same feeling to you!
I have always loved working with children and finding ways to help them learn, grow, and feel confident in their abilities.

I hold a BA from Howard University, an MFA and M.Ed from Regent University and am currently finishing my PhD at Georgia State University. I enjoy assisting students with various writing projects, including personal statements, essays, research papers, resumes, and creative or dramatic writing. With a background in English and Theatre, particularly in literature, creative and dramatic writing, I am passionate about helping students express their unique voice in their projects. My tutoring philosophy starts with open communication. Tutees should feel comfortable in our sessions but also empowered to create their own visions with any assistance I can provide them. In addition, I want our sessions to be safe spaces where they can brainstorm, ask any question regarding the writing process and express their genuine feelings about their own writing. Outside of teaching and tutoring, I love spending time with my family, as well as reading, writing and attending plays.
I love learning which explains my passion for teaching. In high school, I decided that I would become a teacher. I am excited about learning new subjects and attaining new knowledge that I can use for life. As a teacher I can flip my excitement for learning into daily teaching practices. This keeps all my learning environments engaging and filled with edu-fun (educational fun).Now I have ten plus years of teaching experience. I have taught on the elementary, middle school, high school, and in special education classrooms. My favorite grades to teach are the first and second grades. I also really like teaching third and tenth graders.
I recently graduated from Howard University with a degree in chemical engineering. I'm working towards my PhD in biomedical engineering at Columbia University. I have been tutoring since I was in high school, and I really enjoy helping the people I tutor become more confident. I tutor mostly in math (Algebra through Calculus), and I like to coach students through problems until they are able to teach them back to me! Having a growth mindset is very important when learning, and it is something that I had to practice when I was in school.
From an early age, I have always loved reading and learning about literature and history from around the world. Studying the past and the future through material objects such as books and historical records is a passion of mine which allows for a better understanding of the world. I have tutored for a number of years, served as a professor for years, and am happy to pass on to students information necessary in order to succeed!I like to begin sessions initially with finding out about the student themselves and how best they learn/what they believe their weak areas are.Once this is completed, I usually target these areas initially within the first session to get a feel of where the student is within the subject.From there on, I will plan sessions targeting areas we would have discussed which will include re-cap activities to see if the student is retaining the information that I have taught.This structure allows the students confidence to increase as they will get a clear indication that they are improving with their subject as they move on and target another area they are unsure on.I think it is very important to stress any achievement or improvement no matter how small to show their improvement which will allow them to complete tasks independently with ease and confidence so that they feel ready for exams.
As a passionate educator with a Master's in Business Administration from Wake Forest University, I am dedicated to transforming complex financial concepts into accessible knowledge for my students.

I am currently a Senior Chemistry major student at Howard University. I transferred from Prince George's Community college where I majored in General Education. While at school, I enrolled into the AVID tutoring program, STEM collegian and SIR student programs. Through these platforms, I was exposed to many activities of leadership and community service. The AVID tutoring program was most significant because, I was able to reach out to middle and high school students who needed help in math.My effectiveness as a tutor comes from my ability to communicate and listen attentively to each individual's needs. Given the fact that everyone has different levels of comprehension, I aim at understanding the specific area of weakness and strength for each individual. I then start from what you know and understand easily to what seems to be confusing or difficult to understand. I also make sure that as soon as a concept becomes clear, we move on to solve as many problems as possible relating to that concept for more understanding.I acquired most tutoring skills at PGCC and HU math labs (the schools I attended). The math labs were used primarily for helping students finish-up assignments on time, improve grades in math courses, prepare for math placement exams and get an overall understanding of any subject matter relating to math. At these labs, I did a work-study program and served as a volunteer for 20 hours every week. I helped college students get better grades, get a better understanding of the subject matter and complete their homework in a timely manner. My joy and satisfaction came from the feedback I got from students who would say "you helped me get an A on my exam" , "you helped me pass this class" and many students said "math isn't that hard." I specialize in tutoring the basic concepts/courses in math which I believe is the basis for getting a good grasp of the subject matter. I grew up loving math because I spend hours in my early years in school trying to understand the basic concepts and once I got a hold of certain concepts, it set a tone for higher level math and made it seem so easy. Easier than English. I love tutoring all Grade school courses in math and Pre/intermediate and college Algebra.

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.
