I am an incoming student at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, intending to major in Computer Science and Molecular Biology. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about Biology, Chemistry, Physics, and Math. In middle school and high school, I have experience tutoring a wide variety of subjects such as Physics and AP Biology. My teaching philosophy and goals are to teach complex concepts using simple, concise methods. I also believe it is important to teach beyond the standardized curriculum and make interesting, meaningful connections to the real world. Teaching and helping others has always been a passion of mine.

My name is Maddie. I'm a grad student at the University of Oklahoma in the School of Meteorology. I completed my Bachelors degrees in mathematics and geophysics at MIT in 2012. I then spent four years in the Navy as an instructor at Nuclear Power School, where I taught physics to sailors who were learning to operate nuclear power plants. I absolutely love teaching and love math and science. If you're looking for some help in those areas, I'd love the opportunity to assist you.

Hi! I'm River, an MIT student with a double major in Neuroscience and Music, plus a minor in Biology. I'll be heading off to medical school next year, but in the meantime I'm here to fulfill your academic needs and turn your goals into a reality.I'm an experienced tutor, having worked with beginner and advanced students alike. My subject knowledge is broad; I have expertise in science, math, music, and communication skills. I'm more than happy to tailor my methods to your specific needs -- my main goal is your success. If want an intelligent, dedicated, and caring tutor, then I'm the one for you.

I have a strong background in science and engineering from RPI, MIT and CMU and attained the degrees of BS, MS and PhD from these universities respectively. I used my education as a engineer for designing nuclear reactors and after retirement I taught engineering subjects at various universities. I enjoy explaining scientific principles and instilling curiosity about the physical world.

Working Smarter and harder (minus the stress ;).Neuroscience PhD (MIT) with a focus not on simple recitation of material, but on understanding of it.I take joy in making material feel natural instead of alien. And I have special facility with 'debugging' problem areas that aren't making sense. (9/10 times it's because your brain learned a simple, *almost* true rule that sabotages understanding. I like to suss out those broken rules and fix them. :)__________About me:In addition to a background in learning theory (via doctorate in neuroscience) I have a great deal of experience teaching and tutoring a diverse body: from volunteer work with under privileged youth, to teaching MIT and Harvard undergraduate and graduate students, to enableing professors and post-docs to transition between fields, and even to coaching wrestling.My own hobbies/passions include both the mental and physical and include rock climbing, weight lifting, Brazilian jiu jitsu, theoretical computer science ("mathematical epistemology"), modern statistics, and economics and political theory. And I try to catch as much music and art with friends as a I reasonably can along the way. ;)

I am a current PhD candidate in experimental geophysics at MIT. I have successfully tutored dozens of students for the GRE; these students report not only higher scores but deeper understanding of the material, even in areas they have struggled with for years. Many of my students have not taken relevant quantitative courses for years and have forgotten much of their fundamental math skills, but after working with me for a short time, they are able to achieve great GRE quantitative scores. Students also enjoy my approach to the verbal section, where we work on decoding the questions and narrowing answer choices based on the type of question. I focus on a strong understanding of the concepts being tested as well as on test-taking skills. After working together, all of my students feel more comfortable entering the exam and sure of their own abilities, and nearly all of my students end up meeting or exceeding their original score goals.

I have always enjoyed the interaction with and learning from the students. Every student has the potential for success and I find this potential to be exciting. Tutoring presents new challenges and new potential successes. I believe that I can bridge the learning gap through my effective communication skills, patience and passion for learning. And I believe these qualities make me a great tutor.I obtained my Bachelor of Science degree in Biotechnology from Claflin University and then went on to obtain my Master of Science degree in Microbiology at MIT. Both my undergraduate and graduate training has given me exceptional opportunities to strengthen my critical, analytic and problem-solving skills through a variety of courses from the quantitative and biological sciences discipline. I have applied those principles to independently developing and designing experiments to answer specific biological questions. Therefore as a tutor, I hope to cultivate in my students these same problem-solving and critical thinking skills.While at Claflin University, I conducted one-on-one sessions with undergraduate students focusing on Calculus I and Biology. Prior to my graduate studies at MIT, I traveled to Buenos Aires, Argentina where I took part in an after school program focused on teaching pre-elementary and elementary kids Spanish and Math. Most recently, I tutored middle-school math to students at the Excel Academy Saturday program based in Chelsea, Massachusetts. In each instance I learned how to develop effective lesson plans and applied different teaching styles to cater to each student's needs.I believe that I can make a valuable contribution to Varsity tutors through my educational background, tutor experiences and my passion for learning.

I am currently a freshman at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology studying Mechanical Engineering with Computer Science, with a strong passion for mathematics, problem-solving, and teaching. I earned a perfect score on the SAT Math section and have extensive experience with advanced math concepts, standardized test strategies, and analytical thinking. Through my academic work and research experience, I have developed the ability to break down complex problems into simple, clear steps. I focus on helping students truly understand the "why" behind each concept, not just memorize formulas. My goal in SAT and ACT Math, as well as elementary through high school math prep, is to strengthen core foundations, improve speed and accuracy, and teach effective test-taking strategies. In addition to math, I also enjoy helping students with writing. My experience presenting research and working on technical projects has strengthened my ability to communicate ideas clearly and structure arguments effectively. I am also the author of two published books, "Reverie" and "Spotlight," which reflect my passion for storytelling and strong written communication. I aim to help students build confidence in both their quantitative skills and their writing so they can perform at their highest potential.

Hi my name is Page and I'm a student at MIT! I enjoy tutoring and mentoring students in all levels of math and economics. I participated in two volunteer tutoring programs while in college and they have had a terrific impact on my time here. In my free time I enjoy playing soccer, traveling and wearing fun earrings!My experience tutoring with high school students primarily in math and SAT prep has taught me that students learn best and have the most fun when they aren't afraid to make mistakes. Because of that, I work hard to build a relationship with my students based on the ideas that learning should be fun, that it's ok not to know the answer, and to never to afraid to ask questions. I think because of this, students feel comfortable and confident when learning new material.

Hi! I want to help you excel in your studies. Let's get started! As a former teaching assistant at MIT and a youth sports coach, I know how to motivate and make learning fun to you. I have a BArch in Architecture and BA French from Rice University 2000 and a MS in Architecture from MIT 2004. I currently am a Doctoral Student of Physical Therapy at VCU, Class of 2020. I have previously been an Architect for 15+ years and I am a lifelong francophile who has lived in Paris, France for almost a year. I am also an avid NCAA men's and women's basketball fan! Go Rams! Go Terps!

I am currently a Computer Science major freshmen at MIT. I'm super passionate about math, physics, and computer science and love teaching other people! I think that while math, CS, and physics can certainly be abstract, the practical aspects of such topics can make learning both interesting and fulfilling.I have had a pretty extensive background in teaching/coaching. I have spent 1 year tutoring and teaching, 3 years as both a soccer and orienteering coach, and 1 semester as a Lab Assistant at MIT. I think the most important aspect of learning is practice and struggle so I generally teach content in a more hands on and practice oriented fashion.

I graduated from MIT with a Bachelor's degree in Physics.I believe the most important skill for a tutor is to adapt teaching style to the specific strengths and weaknesses of the student. My in-depth knowledge and experience with improvisation allow me to flexibly change problem solving approaches based on what the student needs. I am focused on engaging everyone I work with and am keenly attuned to whether people are truly following along.As an actor and director with a degree in science, I am equally at home with "science-y" and "arts-y" students. I am there to help foster a love for learning regardless of how much the student may or may not love the subject beforehand.

I just recently graduated from Villanova University with a BS in Chemical Engineering, and dual minors in Biology and Bioengineering. At Villanova, I was the president of the Club Running team, Commissioner of Intramural Sports, and heavily involved in service. Outside of the classroom, I've held internships and co-ops with ChemSolv, Inc., GlaxoSmithKline, and Johnson & Johnson, as well as presented research at the American Chemical Society National Expo. Beginning in the fall of 2015 I will pursue a PhD in Chemical Engineering at MIT.My hobbies include every and all sports, both playing and watching, playing keyboard and singing vocals in a local rock band, cooking, and outdoors activities. My go-to fun-fact is that I am the youngest of 9 children!

I have an advanced degree in science and technology from MIT.I specialize in microelectronics- scaling devices to their physical limit and enabling more advanced computer, mobile and server chips.I enjoy very much teaching students science and math and motivating them for future careers in technology. I look forward to helping you achieve your academic goals.We need bright minds to push technology limits that can solve complex problems and increase the standard of living in our society with more advanced devices.

I'm a mechanical engineer, educated at MIT and Stanford. Previously, I have worked as a design engineer in the medical device design field. I like being able to help someone figure out how to make something work--to help them accomplish something they're struggling with. I love the 'I get it now' moment that comes from when a tutoring session has been successful.

I am a graduate of MIT. I received my Bachelor of Science in Mathematics with minors in Management Science and Ancient and Medieval Studies. Since graduation, I have started my PhD at Georgia Tech in Operations Research. Throughout my career I have TA'd several math and computer science courses at the college level. I have also taught at summer programs for gifted middle school and high school students. I am passionate about tutoring kids in math and science because I think that a strong foundation in STEM at an early age can set the tone for their future. In my spare time I like to engage in athletics, and was a Division 1 rower in college.

I am a sophomore at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, majoring in music and computational biology. I have always had a passion for teaching, and have experience tutoring students in a wide range of grade levels and subjects throughout my years in middle school, high school, and my freshman year at MIT through the Academic Teaching Initiative. I hope to help, and have had past success in helping, students succeed at whatever their goals may be; improved grades, improved standardized test scores, even college admissions. I hope to not only aid students in reaching checkpoints, but also to give them the personal interest in their material and the curiosity to help them move forward and continue to succeed in the future. The majority of my experience lies in tutoring middle school and high school math, middle school science, and biology, but I am also qualified to tutor high school science, a large number of AP exams, the PSAT, and the ACT. Given my current status as an undergraduate student, I am also uniquely able to offer mentoring and advice to any student interested in student life in college and college admissions. More than anything, I strive to be an approachable and reliable tutor whom my students feel that they can be comfortable with, because it is when a student is aware that their teacher is on their side that they feel comfortable thinking and asking questions in the ways that will help them grow. In my free time, I study music and vocal pedagogy, practice makeup artistry, and watch films.

I graduated from MIT in 2014 with a BS in Economics and minors in Biology and Public Policy. Currently, I work as a research associate at a development economics lab at MIT, and plan to apply for medical school this upcoming summer. I hope to combine in MD with a PhD in Economics or Health Policy in order to work on issues regarding Healthcare Delivery.Throughout college, I had extensive experience tutoring. I tutored writing/essay editing and SAT prep for a year, as well as high school math for a semester. Furthermore, I participated in a week-long Spring Break tutoring program in New Orleans, where I tutored 3rd and 4th grade students in math. Lastly, I spent a month teaching computer literacy to health workers in rural Togo in the summer of 2013.I find tutoring to be an extremely rewarding experience. I really enjoy teaching and like the challenge of trying to figure out the teaching style that best fits my students!

I have an MBA in Financing Entrepreneurial Ventures from Babson College and a BS in Environmental Engineering from MIT. I am a career entrepreneur and have started up several ventures. My strengths are financing, management, entrepreneurship, and analytical and strategic thinking. I am able to explain complex concepts in simple terms. I am attentive and actively lisent. I have certifications in Coaching and in Project Management. I thought at the university level and was an instructor for an entrepreneurship course as well as cost accounting and managerial finance.

I grew up in the Boston area and now live in Citrus County, Florida. I graduated from MIT in chemical engineering and worked for many years as a chemical process engineer, so I have a strong background in math and science, especially chemistry and thermodynamics. I've also been granted six U.S. patents. When the pandemic hit us, I moved to Florida and did part-time work as a chess tutor, then became a substitute teacher in the middle and high schools in our district. I enjoyed working with the students, many of whom had difficulty learning in big classes with many disruptions. I found that I could best help these students by using real-world examples to teach difficult concepts in a new way. Often, then, the student would come away with a new perspective and a much better understanding of the concept. I was happy to be able to help. These days as a VT tutor, I continue to use, whenever possible, real-world examples in my own material in chemistry and thermodynamics.

I graduated from MIT with a bachelor's and a master's degree in Environmental Engineering. I'm available to tutor biology, chemistry, physics, math from Algebra up through AP Calculus, SAT test prep, and French. I've been tutoring students in science and math for 7 years. I also spent 8 months working and studying in France, and have tutored high school and adult students in French. When I'm not working or studying, I love playing volleyball (indoors or on the beach!) and spending time outside, canoeing or hiking with my dog. I look forward to meeting and working with you!

Linguistics is a very broad and storied field which studies an object that is familiar to all of us. It is for this reason that I take a "student-first" approach to teaching; rather than adopting a prescribed formula, I tailor lesson plans to the knowledge state and interests of my pupils. This has generated positive results in my work serving as a TA for linguistics courses at both undergraduate and graduate levels.

I am an educator with over 10 years of experience teaching students of all ages. I am excited to expand my profession into the world of online teaching. As a high school teacher in Daytona Beach, FL, I have led classes from various subjects, including physics, engineering, and music. This has given me insight into a wide range of learning types and the approaches that work best for the individual student. Outside the classroom, I have tutored many that either needed help in a particular class or wanted a deeper understanding of their science and technology coursework. My passion is to share my love of learning with my students. My goal is to not only teach the material, but also to help the student connect with the material in a meaningful way. In doing so, may the students come to share my love of learning.

I recently graduated from MIT with my B.Sc. in Mechanical Engineering with a double major in Music, while completing the pre-health track. I have been tutoring college level physics, biology, multivariable calculus, and organic chemistry for the past four years. I have also helped high school students prepare for the SAT and ACT. I am an avid classical pianist, EMT, swimmer, and tinkerer. I love explaining things and paying forward my knowledge to those around me!

I have been tutoring and teaching since high school. I graduated from MIT with a bachelor degree in computer science and biology. I went on to medical school and have a masters in biomedical engineering. I taught undergraduate students as a graduate student and trained medical doctors when I graduated. I have worked in private medical practice educating patients and other doctors. I can teach all levels of math, biology, and earth science. I am also familiar with New York State education regents requirements. I have relatives in the teaching profession and help them with their lesson plans. I enjoy music, guitar, saxophone, bicycling, and chess. I can help you achieve your goals especially in math and in the sciences..

I studied for 11 years at MIT, where I earned a bachelor's, master's, and PhD in Mechanical Engineering. After finishing my PhD, I stayed an extra year at MIT to teach and complete a teaching certificate, wanting to share my enthusiasm for science and engineering with younger learners. I love sharing not just the core ideas and skills, but also the context that makes these skills important and exciting. When I teach, I scaffold the important concepts, giving the students enough support that they are able to work through examples, but still requiring them to think through the problem and actively practice the key skills.I am excited to tutor any subject in the undergraduate Mechanical Engineering curriculum, and I have a particular fondness for Solid Mechanics, Fluid Dynamics, and Mechanical Design.At the high school level, I am available to tutor physics and calculus. As an MIT undergraduate, I taught two semesters of freshman physics as a Teaching Assistant, both in Mechanics and in Electricity & Magnetism. As for calculus, I saw how much students needed the math in later classes, and how they struggled to recall their skills. I'd like to help students gain a deep an intuitive understanding of this important subject.Lastly, one of my passions is French, which I can tutor at the beginner and intermediate levels. I took French through the AP level in high school, and in college I took advanced classes and studied abroad. Today, I speak to my children only in French, working with my husband (who is also French) to raise them bilingual. I've also spent a lot of time with extended family in France. This unique experience helps me make the French tutoring more meaningful by allowing me to share cultural context and firsthand observations.

As a Ph.D. student in Computational and Applied Mathematics at the University of Chicago, with a Bachelor's in Mathematics from MIT, I am passionate about making mathematics accessible and engaging for all learners.

I specialize in subjects such as Algebra I & II, AP Calculus, Differential Equations, and Linear Algebra. I strive to create a supportive learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and exploring concepts. My teaching philosophy centers on patience, encouragement, and tailored lessons that align with each student's unique goals and learning style. I am dedicated to helping students build both their mathematical skills and their confidence, ensuring they can tackle challenges with a sense of accomplishment.

I'm a junior at MIT studying Biological Engineering. I've been tutoring for six years in multiple subjects, most extensively in math but also in reading comprehension, chemistry, and biology. In high school, I qualified for the AIME and MIT's Math Prize for Girls and won the award for achievement in mathematics in my high school class of 400. These achievements make me uniquely qualified to teach both competition and academic mathematics at most levels. In fact, I have experience successfully tutoring a wide age range of students, from age 4 to 17.At this point in my life, I like to use teaching and mentoring to make a difference in my community. I am currently president of MIT SHINE for Girls, a math and dance outreach program at MIT that invites middle school girls from under-served school districts to campus once a week to dance and learn math. I really enjoy forming a mentor-mentee relationship with a student and building their confidence, showing them that they can achieve more than they ever believed. For that reason, tutoring has been both my job and my hobby for the last six years. I look forward to getting to know new students and working with them collaboratively towards their goals.

I am a graduate of Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). I received my Bachelor's of Science in Chemical Engineering. I am driven by an implacable urge to learn, explore, communicate and share knowledge with others.

I graduated from MIT in 2014 with a degree in chemical engineering. Over the past three years, I have worked as an engineer for Chevron in the Gulf of Mexico and for Phillips 66 at the Borger Refinery. I have been extremely blessed in my college and professional career, but I believe that a significant amount of my fortune stems from my passion and dedication in the classroom. I look forward to tutoring students in math and science related subjects so that similar opportunities will be open to them in the future. In my spare time, I enjoying relaxing with my wife, Landry, and our basset hound, Gunner.

I graduated from MIT in June of 2016 with a Bachelors degree in Chemical-Biological Engineering and a minor in Public Policy. I tutor in a wide variety of areas, but specialize in high school and college math and science, as well as test prep. I've been teaching in some capacity since I was in high school; first tutoring peers in math and science through National Honor Society, then providing more informal one-on-one help to fellow students at MIT. I've also worked extensively teaching swim lessons for the past five years, particularly to beginners. Both in and out of the pool, I believe that a good lesson is one where the student is doing the thinking. I teach interactively, asking questions, listening to students. explanations, and probing students to produce the correct answer for themselves. I want to model thinking and questioning strategies that will allow a student to be successful without a tutor; I endeavor always to work myself out of a job. When I'm not tutoring or teaching swim lessons, I enjoy reading (especially mystery and crime novels), distance running, and long walks with my chocolate lab Snickers.
