Hi! I am a graduate of Johns Hopkins University with a B.S. in Molecular Biology and a minor in Psychology. During my undergraduate years, I worked as a learning assistant for Physics 1 and 2 labs, guided fellow premedical students, and prepared for the MCAT. After graduation, I pursued a Fulbright fellowship in Norway, where I conducted neuroscience research and engaged with a diverse student community. I now work on a neurotrauma unit, further deepening my understanding of medicine and patient care. I am passionate about teaching and mentorship, whether in the classroom, as a Bollywood dance captain, or even in the middle of a Norwegian fjord! My tutoring focuses on critical thinking and the natural sciences, helping students excel in school, on the SAT, and on the MCAT.

I'm a current student at Johns Hopkins University pursuing a bachelor's in both Neuroscience and Molecular & Cellular Biology. My favorite subjects to tutor are biology, chemistry, psychology, art history, and environmental science on both a high school and Advanced Placement level. Alongside those subjects, I am comfortable teaching middle school and lower level high school math and science, and I offer test preparation for both the SAT and ACT. Outside of academics, I like to train for memory sports, and my current goal is to set a Guinness World Record for memorizing the most decimal places of the irrational number phi. In my previous tutoring experience, I have not only helped teach the subject matter at hand, but I have also guided students on how to improve their study habits in general.

MS Johns Hopkins University • BA Gustavus Adolphus College
9+ Years Tutoring

I first became interested in teaching and tutoring when I was a high school student taking an abundance of AP courses. Though these courses successfully prepared me for my college education, I felt that I could have benefited from tutoring myself. When I entered college, I initially enrolled hoping to pursue a degree in social studies education. However, through my coursework and study, I began to focus more on history and chose to change my major to history and my minor to classics. Throughout this transition, I have never lost my interest in teaching and education.My Bachelor of Arts degree in history from Gustavus Adolphus College has instilled in me a love of learning, skills in critical thinking, composition, writing, editing and much more. These skills, though not the main focus of my major, became the core of understanding for me throughout my education. Upon completion of my degree in May of 2016, I chose to pursue a gap year of service working with Minnesota Reading Corps, a division of AmeriCorps, as an elementary literacy tutor. In this role, I gained training in tutoring and developed skills that have helped me to better understand how to reach students.Beginning in the Fall of 2017, I will be pursuing a masters degree in Museum Studies from John's Hopkins University's Advanced Academic Programs department. Through this degree, I hope one day to become a curator at a history museum. This role would allow me to utilize my love of both history and educating the public.

Hi! My name is Kevin Joyce, and as someone who is well versed in standardized tests and rigorous course loads and who has taught others in the past, I believe I make the prime candidate for helping you get where you want to be when it comes to your SAT score. I took the SAT twice, my highest single score being 2310 (800 Writing, 800 Verbal, 710 Math), and my "superscore" being 2330 (800 Writing, 800 Verbal, 730 Math). I am a graduate of Johns Hopkins University, where I received a BA with a double major in Film and Media Studies and Writing, earning a 3.72 GPA. While in school, I consulted with friends numerous times on their assignments and gained an understanding of what it takes to distill complex concepts into easily comprehensible pieces. So now you've read my academic SparkNotes. As for my philosophy on standardized test-taking and teaching, I've always relished the challenge of standardized testing, to be honest. I think engendering that same sentiment in future test-takers can be key. As for my love of tutoring, I feel that teaching others to solve certain problems is in many ways more gratifying than coming up with a correct answer to a problem yourself. In a similar vein, while it may be clich (though just because something is said a lot doesn't mean it's trite), helping others come to understand a point of view they didn't hold before or aiding them in the development of a new skill is an incredibly satisfying experience. My hobbies and loves include watching sports (especially the NFL), playing sports (football, lacrosse, rugby, soccer, ultimate and running track are my favorites), watching movies, reading, and writing.

PhD Johns Hopkins University
6+ Years Tutoring

I graduated from the Johns Hopkins University with a PhD in French language and literature and I have ten years of teaching experience. A French native, I completed my undergraduate studies at the Sorbonne in Paris, France. During my senior year I was also a French teaching assistant "abroad" for an American university in New York State. My role was to tutor students taking intermediate French during one-on-one sessions in my office. I helped them learn new vocabulary and acquire grammar tools; we read and discussed short texts from movie reviews to novella chapters; we compared paintings or photographs available on the internet but always in French. After that year, I taught French classes at Johns Hopkins from French 1 to French 4 as a graduate student. Upon graduation I was hired as a Visiting Assistant Professor by a small Southern California liberal arts college where I taught language and literature classes in French. I had office hours during which I answered questions and made sure students had assimilated the new material, from grammar rules to literary concepts. As a tutor and a teacher, I use French as much as possible even with beginners. I like to use auditory and visual inputs at the same time and I contextualize new words to ease the process of memorization.Most of all, I will adapt my methods to your needs and level of French. If you are more advanced I will help you converse and write about more complex material. I am a good listener and I will appreciate your feedback after each session if you wish to provide any.I have traveled to more than fifteen countries and lived in France, Austria, Switzerland and the USA. I have always enjoyed speaking foreign languages and I learned a lot from my own teachers and tutors in German and English. Their knowledge, confidence, open-mindedness and patience always inspired me; I strive to be to you the kind of tutors they were to me.

My academic background is in engineering. As a female engineer, I was in the fourth graduating class that admitted women at Johns Hopkins University. However, the desire to pass on my love of math and science, and the ability to solve problems, prompted me to pursue a teaching career.

10+ Years Tutoring

Hey y'all! My name is Claire, and I am so excited to teach online this year. For the last seven years, I taught all over the country (Charleston, SC, Nashville, TN, Portland, OR, and Vancouver, WA) and also earned a master's degree in education from Johns Hopkins University along the way.I hated math as a kid because my teachers always made me feel stupid in class for not understanding right away. I became a math teacher because I saw how many people get stuck in their education and careers when they run into trouble in math class. Working with me, you will understand how capable you are and will never have to feel embarrassed for learning. Come to class to ask questions and learn with me!
