I am very excited to give maximum effort to build relationships and inspire an interest in learning.

The ACT is stressful, but there are some really easy steps and strategies to make it more approachable.At times, it's more important to know how to take the test than know what's going to be on it.

Hello! I am thrilled to be your tutor and so excited to see what ideas and questions you have for me. I am a visual learner, and I like to break problems down to understand basic concepts and develop a better understanding of the bigger picture. I am a Junior at Rhodes College pursuing a Biology degree on the pre-med track! :)

I want to show my students the joy of learning, as cliche as that might sound. I guess this stems from my own love of learning, but tutoring lets me share this love in a one-on-one, individual scenario. Seeing as my desired career is to be a college professor, tutoring allows me to get an early edge on my teaching skills as well.

As a passionate educator with a Bachelor's degree in Psychology & Sociology from Rhodes College, I have over 4 years of experience tutoring students in college and university admissions, as well as crafting compelling college application essays. My teaching philosophy centers on fostering a supportive and engaging learning environment where students feel empowered to express their unique voices and perspectives. I am dedicated to helping students navigate the complexities of the application process, ensuring they present their best selves.

I was born and raised in Memphis, TN, where eventually I went to earn a BS at Rhodes College. After struggling between dual my loves of science and literature, I graduated in 2014 with a degree in Biology with a minor in English. I participated in several research projects studying animal behavior during and after college before I became interested in pursuing a career in environmental education.For half the year, I work full time as a park ranger providing education and visitor services seasonally at national parks and public lands. I teach curriculum-based education to visiting schools, and I answer general questions to the public, on topics ranging from ecology, geology, and history, to where to find the bathrooms.I have worked as a personal tutor since high school, teaching a variety of subjects to all ages of students.Since college between my seasonal positions of work, I have created full time work for myself for students on summer vacation, teaching math, writing, English, and science to students in elementary, middle, and high school.When I tutor, I'm hoping to empower students to think and analyze to find their own solutions. I don't want to show them the right way to do things, but rather the right way for THEM to do things. Our brains work differently, and we find the same right answers in different ways!Like your typical millennial, I enjoy traveling, but I've really made a full time life of it. Since college, I haven't lived in one place longer than 7 months. My seasonal homes have included Tennessee, North Carolina, California, Wyoming, South Africa, and the coast of Oregon. My primary recreational activity in all of these places is hiking, and I've been lucky to live in some beautiful natural spaces for outdoor recreation.When I'm not working or hiking, I'm reading, writing, sleeping, or trying to learn to learn how to be a decent cook.

I am passionate about helping students feel more confident and successful in their learning. During my undergraduate studies I tutored peers in French. After graduating from college I taught conversational English in Paris, which nurtured my interest in helping English Language Learners. I love explaining the shades of meaning in words, strengthening students' reading comprehension, and building their writing skills. I believe patience and kindness are key to student success. As a graduate student in a field called Learning Technologies, I am constantly discovering which educational approaches best help students.I am a great tutor because I believe in finding out why students have certain road blocks to learning and crafting an approach that helps them overcome those obstacles. I am patient and I understand the importance of explaining a concept without assuming prior knowledge or making the learner feel patronized.In my free time I enjoy yoga, running, playing with dogs, and checking out design blogs.

I'm a communications professional with a master's degree in pharmacology from Tulane University, a master's degree in journalism from USC and a bachelor's degree in neuroscience. I have two years of professional tutoring experience and thrive on guiding students to that "aha!" moment.

I graduated from Rhodes College in Memphis, TN with a Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. During my undergraduate career, I worked with students as a Teaching Assistant in the introductory organic chemistry lab and mentored students in an organic chemistry research lab. After graduation, I moved to China to work as an educational consultant, advising students with college applications while focusing on improving their application essays. Additionally, I tutored students on IELTS and TOEFL preparation and general English, using subjects such as science and history to improve their speaking and writing skills.I love teaching writing, as this is one of the best ways to help students learn about themselves and their interests, but I also enjoy teaching life sciences and math. In my free time, I enjoy painting, yoga, and experimenting with new recipes.

I enjoy working with students of all ages and backgrounds on writing, reading, humanities, and test preparation. I'm a PhD student in Modern European History at Rutgers University, and I recently did an exchange year at the Ecole Normale Superieure in Paris. I have 8 years of experiencing in tutoring and previously worked for the Educational Testing Service in test development for the SAT, PSAT and pre-AP English exams.

After graduating college in 2013 with an honors degree in English, I joined Teach for America in Memphis where I taught in public schools for two years. I am a state-certified teacher who has experience in public, charter, and private schools. I have elementary and middle certifications, as well as certifications to teach history and English at the high school level. I have also undergone numerous trainings in teaching both common core math and Language arts.Passionate about educating kids, I understand the individuality of every child and structure sessions based on skill level and personal interest. Students leave tutoring sessions with renewed confidence and heightened engagement in their subject matter. My greatest strength as a teacher is being able to recognize prior knowledge, and then individualize my instruction to grow the child without any gaps in understanding.

Whether you're here to pass a test or go deeper, I'll help you understand how government actually works. We'll focus on real understanding not just memorization so you leave more confident, more curious, and more capable.

As a physics major with a passion for particle physics, I am deeply interested in exploring the theoretical and universal aspects of both physics and math. I have over 100 hours of tutoring experience, during which I've helped students navigate these challenging subjects. Whether working with foundational concepts or advanced problems, I aim to simplify complex ideas and make them accessible to every student. My tutoring philosophy is centered on identifying the root cause of any misunderstanding and addressing it at its core. By breaking down abstract concepts into digestible steps, I help students build a strong foundation and confidence in their abilities. I believe that anyone can excel in these subjects with patience and the right approach. Outside of academics, I enjoy climbing, crocheting, baking, and skatingactivities that keep me balanced and motivated. These interests help me bring a creative and problem-solving mindset to my tutoring sessions, encouraging students to stay curious and engaged as they work towards their academic goals.

As a native Mandarin speaker, I believe language learning should feel practical, encouraging, and enjoyable. I tailor lessons to my students' goalswhether you want to build a strong foundation, improve conversation skills, or gain confidence using Mandarin in real-life situations. I also speak English fluently, and it will help our lessons go smoothly. No matter your starting level, I am here to support you step by step on your Mandarin learning journey.

I love helping students learn and understand computer science. I have 3 years of tutoring experience, and I believe any concept can be understood by breaking it down into more straightforward steps.

My name is Meg, and I am grateful to share my passion for reading and writing with any student seeking to find their voice and develop their skills.

I am a recent graduate of Rhodes College, where I received my Bachelor of Science in Neuroscience with a minor in Chemistry and English. After graduation, I have remained close to academia by auditing classes in the areas of Anatomy and Physiology, Organ Systems, Histology, Embryology, and Neuroscience.My introduction to tutoring first occurred in my second year of high school. I tutored in all math courses, English (including college essay writing), all science courses, and test preparation. Furthermore, I also worked with elementary- and middle-school age children on social skills outside the classroom as well as all subjects inside the classroom. Throughout college, I found my niche in tutoring test preparation and science, leading to my recommendation to serve as an Introductory Biology Teaching Assistant for three years at my undergraduate institution. My passion for the areas of Science, English, and Math are reflected in my tutoring experiences. I have developed a variety of techniques to tackle each of these challenging and very different subjects, and I find that my students enjoy the tools I use to help them understand difficult concepts in a more relatable manner!Lifelong learning is of utmost importance to me, and I firmly believe that having faith in the future of my students leads to their success. The feeling of seeing my students developing independence and intellect over the course of tutoring sessions is something indescribably wonderful. In my free time, I enjoy cooking/baking, reading, playing basketball, and painting.

Having earned my B.A. in English from Rhodes College followed by my Masters in Education from Tennessee State University, I have been propelling students learning success for over 35 years as a public-school English teacher. My students' growth and achievement scores are consistently significantly above average. I have training in both AP English Language and Composition and AP English Literature and Composition. I enjoy teaching students writing and test prep, but more than anything I love my students' expressions when they see their improvement.

When I was a student, I totally misunderstood the teaching position. From my perspective, teachers simply appeared at 7:40, at the strike of a bell, and disappeared at 3:00, with a strike of the same bell. These automatons materialized purely for pedagogical purposes, then evaporated when their time had run out. Of course, the reality of their situation was always much different. Nearly all teachers work tirelessly for their students, rarely thinking about much other than teaching--especially in their first few years. (I know, because I became a first-time teacher.) When I began teaching, this knowledge spiraled me into a state of profound reflection. For the first time, I took seriously all of the pressures on this position--out of school political fighting, in school political fighting, funding shortages, etc. It was not clear to me at the time, but teachers do one of the most difficult jobs and receive the least amount of respect for it--not to mention a salary that rarely reflects their efforts and impact. For me, tutoring excises some of these political issues, allowing me to focus entirely upon the task at hand--instructing one student on a particular subject. It's liberating and fun and incredibly rewarding.

I am an M.D. from Houston with an excellent academic background and a passion for teaching. I am affable, reliable, and I go the extra mile for each and every student.

Through my experience I want to support students across a wide range of subjects for students K-8. I am a passionate about providing students with a supportive and patient learning environment, creating a comfortable space to make mistakes and ask questions. I think that learning can be powerful when students are guided to discover answers for themselves and feel comfortable making mistakes. What motivates me most is helping every child feel confident and supported in their path.

I graduated from Rhodes College in 2019, where I majored in neuroscience and minored in English (concentration: fiction writing). As the oldest of three girls, I found myself naturally playing the role of tutor as a child. One of my sisters has a developmental disability, which motivated me to pursue other opportunities tutoring and teaching life skills to children and adults with disabilities. Additionally, I have privately tutored students in grades 4-11 in a range of academic subjects, including English, reading, writing, science, and math. I find supporting students' growth to be immensely satisfying, and I plan to pursue a graduate degree in education. In my free time, I love to bake, write short stories and poetry, and play badminton in the park.

Over 5 years of tutoring experience with elementary and middle school children with various subjects from math to chess to writing. Strong believer in positive feedback and motivating the students. I would describe myself as a friendly, high motivated teacher and student!

Experienced in literature and writing content, I love working one-on-one with students to improve their writing. Whether it's a college essay or ELA paper, I utilize a variety of tactics to help students execute their ideas effectively on paper.

I am currently in my fourth year of medical school at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center. Learning science is my passion, but I also enjoy running, trying new food, and reading classic books. I would love to be part of your journey by helping you love mastering the task at hand. No doubt, you will see your best results once you have learned to enjoy the grind of becoming an expert of the material placed before you. Together, we can learn to enjoy the process as well as enjoy the results you will achieve. Whether you are working through upper-level science courses to complete a pre-med degree, taking the MCAT before applying to medical school, or studying for the USMLE Step 1 or 2 exams to get into the residency of your dreams, I can help you achieve your goal. With whatever content we are mastering together, we will work to be as organized and planned as possible. "Those who fail to plan, plan to fail!"

My name is Jackson, and I have a passion for math and physics (I know, super nerdy). I graduated with a Bachelor's in Physics and a minor in mathematics, and I love helping students understand concepts in both these fields. I have one year of tutoring experience in college/AP-level physics and math (particularly calculus), and I tutor all levels of math and physics. I am a firm believer that there is no such thing as a "math" person. Math and Science are for everyone! That being said, I know these topics can be intimidating to many. I aim to help students understand the foundations of these subjects and prepare them to be better STEM learners.

I graduated from Rhodes College in Memphis, Tennessee in May of 2022. I was an Educational Studies and History double major with a French minor. As an education major, I was a part of a wide variety of classrooms from elementary math to high school history. Currently, I am studying Spanish in Mexico after two years teaching English in Guadeloupe, France to sharpen my foreign language skills and ESL teaching capabilities in preparation for multilingual and multicultural educational spaces. Upon my return to the United States, I will pursue my teaching license in secondary history. Thus, I am passionate about teaching History, English, and French. I also excel at teaching and academic writing. In addition to my experience guiding students in traditional classrooms, I have taught yoga for the past two years. This has involved planning classes for large groups in addition to providing personal assists to students throughout their practice. With my experience teaching others in both the traditional academic classroom and the nontraditional yoga classroom, I have learned there is no better way to assist others in their growth than meeting individuals exactly where they are. As a result, my teaching and tutoring styles are designed to capitalize upon what students already know so that they may build upon said knowledge and achieve more. Further, my teaching and tutoring are based on our humanity as people and thus there is plenty of conversation, inquiry, and room for mistakes. I believe education is an opportunity for creating possibilities, and as such I couldn't be more grateful to help others imagine their future possibilities.

I am a highly-motivated recent graduate from Rhodes College with internship experience at the Acupuncture and Wellness Center, Methodist Transplant Institute, and Tanzania Medical Experience. Currently, I am pursuing a career in the medical profession as a medical doctor, having obtained a Bachelor of Science degree in Chemistry, to incorporate my family's practice in Acupuncture into the conventional healthcare system.I pride myself on being dependable - the person that everyone can lean on, trusting that I will deliver to the highest standard. I am goal-driven, passionate about living a healthy lifestyle, and I strive in a team environment.

I strive to help all students find the style of learning that fits and works for them. Everyone learns differently, but that also means that everyone can learn.

As a Computer Science student in the process of pursuing a PhD, I know how important it is to understand the ins-and-outs of your classes. Not only will you be better off understanding the deeper meanings, but you might also find your passion with learning. If that is not the case, it's all good, I enjoy practical applications but I also enjoy the theory behind things. If you are having trouble understanding specific subjects or yo u just want some clarification I am happy to help.
