Hello, my name is Charlie, and I am a certified Secondary Ed English teacher. I am excited to share my passion for literature and writing with eager young learners.Besides being passionate about learning, I also am active in fitness, golf, and playing the guitar.I look forward to guiding students to achieving their academic best in English.

I am a graduate student studying Clinical Psychology, with a passion for helping others.I taught English abroad in china for 5 months, as well as helped special need kiddos for a school semester.I graduated with honors from my undergraduate institution with a degree in Psychology, and minors in History and Chinese.Whenever I teach students, I try to focus first on having fun and learning to love the material, and then on accuracy.

I am a passionate teacher with 12 years of experience in elementary, middle school, high school, and university education. My philosophy is grounded on the notion that students can learn anything with the proper approach, patience, and flexibility.

My objective as a tutor is to deliver maximum life-long values: conceptual understanding, a rekindled love for learning, confidence, genuine self-esteem, and friendship. I deliver these by focusing on conceptual understanding. Most difficulties with the current materials come from not having mastered the earlier concepts or skills. I locate these earlier misunderstandings by asking questions like, "Walk me through this problem and explain your thought process" or "How are you thinking about this problem?" It's normal to get confused responses to these questions, but whatever response is offered, I can dig deeper by asking additional questions. Upon finding underlying areas that are not understood, I deliver focused learning experiences designed to quickly, easily, and enjoyably bring about conceptual understanding. I can off these kinds of mini-lessons immediately and without additional preparation because I myself have conceptual mastery of nearly the entire math and physics curricula from elementary through the first 4 years of college.When I am not tutoring: I am seeking employment in the medical device and aerospace industries as a Quality Engineer or Reliability Engineer, creating heart and mind expanding experiences for my wife and daughters, supporting my daughter's acting career and rigorous talent development programs, reading for learning or pleasure, authoring heart and mind expanding books, engaging in aggressive personal development, exploring the fullness of what life has to offer, laughing, learning, and creating values for the world.

My name is Amir, a 4th-year PhD student in Mechanical Engineering at Lyle School of Engineering at Southern Methodist University. I have more than 10 years experience of tutoring Math and Physics for high school, SAT and college level.My resume will give you a greater understanding of my qualifications. Please contact me if you have any questions.

I hold a bachelor's and master's in art history, with a concentration in early modern European art. I attended THE Ohio State University for my undergraduate degree, and attended Southern Methodist University for my master's. During my time as a master's student, I was a teaching assistant to four different undergraduate art history courses, and spent a significant amount of time teaching, grading, and holding office hours with my students.To simply put my tutoring style: I am a lover of learning. Learning new things myself, and helping others to learn, are life-affirming experiences for me. Knowledge is joyful, and powerful! I want my students to walk away from our sessions feeling similarly.I have begun tutoring for those studying the LSAT and would love to continue to take on LSAT learners. Contrary to what you have learned from major LSAT teaching companies, the LSAT is simple and straightforward: there is one correct answer, and four wrong ones. Slow reading and a careful approach to understanding every stimulus are keys to LSAT success, and I want to help you get there! After beginning at a 154, I have practiced into the 170's, and am still taking the LSAT myself to have that reflected in my actual score.I would also love to spend some of my time with my LSAT students on their admissions applications. I have received a full ride, or more, in scholarships for each degree I have received, and I can help you achieve that same financial success with your law school application. I hope to hear from you and can't wait to help you on your law school journey!

I graduated from Clemson University with a BS in Economics. I also have an MBA in Finance from Southern Methodist University. I'm currently working towards an MS in Quantitative Finance and Economics from Texas State University. I also work as a Quantitative Analyst at a fixed income investment firm. In my previous jobs, I was an underwriter in the insurance industry and before that I was an Infantry Officer in the United States Marine Corps. I enjoy teaching and helping students understand their academic subjects.

Fulbright Fellow, Phi Beta Kappa graduate, TESOL-certified English teacher for both ESL and native speakers, and tutor with 6 years of experience. I've taught remedial English through AmeriCorps, designed curricula abroad, and tutored students from elementary through college level in writing, reading, history, social studies, IB Extended Essays, AP Exam Prep, and college applications. I aim to build confidence in those who are struggling and push high-achievers to do their best work.

Wharton Educated Certified Investment Management Analyst, Studied Pre-Med Honors at SMU, Undergrad in Finance UNT, SMU MBA Double Major: Finance and Strategy / Entrepreneurship, Currently working on Masters of Science in Accounting at SMU. Level II CFA (Chartered Financial Analyst) candidate, 20 years as an Investment Speaker and sales Executive for Fortune 100 firms. I was Academic Decathlon, Whiz-Quiz and Olympics of the Mind participant in High School, (Plano and Lewisville Gifted and Talented).

I recently graduated from Relay School of Education with a master's degree in early childhood education. While studying at Relay, I worked at a charter school in Colorado, teaching lower elementary students. In Colorado, I taught many subjects, but I am most passionate about helping students learn how to read and understand basic math. I have seen the difference small group instruction can make on a student's academic performance and overall attitude towards school. School should be a place you are excited to go to, and sometimes if you struggle in a subject, it can taint the whole experience. I want to foster a love for learning by helping students feel confident in their abilities to read, write, and solve math equations.

I hold a Master's degree in Mathematics from Georgia State University, an MBA from Golden Gate University, and a Bachelor's in Civil Engineering from Southern Methodist University. I am a licensed professional engineer, retired with thirty years of experience leading multinational corporations. I served as a member of the Clean Air Act Advisory Committee for President George H.W. Bush, and the Environmental Technology Export Council for President Clinton. My goal is to inspire students and help them prepare for opportunities in the rapidly growing STEM fields. I am certified to teach Mathematics and Physics in Grades 6-12. I enjoy tutoring students in physics, all types of math, and standardized test preparation. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, writing and consulting in national policy matters.

I've been fortunate to have spent half of my life living in South America and am therefore native bilingual in English and Spanish. I came to the United States to obtain my undergraduate degree from Brandeis University in Waltham, Ma. Six years later, I moved to Dallas, TX to work as an elementary school teacher in an urban school district. I've been here for ten years and have spent the entire decade working in education. I have taught all subjects and almost all grades in elementary school. In 2011 I graduated from Southern Methodist University with a Master's in Bilingual Education. In recent years, I have worked as an instructional coach and academic specialist, which has allowed me to look at education from a different lens and therefore given me a comprehensive look at curriculum and instruction.I am currently completing my principal certification and hope to pursue this goal in the near future. The rest of my time is spent with my wife and two children of 1 and 4 years. I played varsity tennis in college and continue to play locally.

Unleash Your Inner Math Genius with Salim! Ever feel like math problems seem designed by evil geniuses? That used to be me too! But instead of accepting defeat, I turned the tables and became obsessed with unlocking the mysteries of numbers. Before joining high school, someone told me I wasn't good at it, which motivated me to take advanced-level math, work hard, and prove them wrong. In the process, I discovered a love for the subject. Now, with a Master's degree in Economics and Analytics under my belt, I'm on a mission to help YOU do the same. For the past three years, I've been helping 100s of high school and university students at Southern Methodist University, Baum Tenpers Institute, and among others, level up their math and economics skills on a part-time basis. I also have industry experience in research, finance, and data science which means I can show you how math applies to the real world. Ready to crack the math code and unlock your academic potential? Let's embark on this exciting journey together!

For those interested in my academicside, I graduated from Southern Methodist University with Bachelors Degrees in Biological Science and Health & Society. I also have an Associates Degree in General Sciences. I previously tutored in my college's Math Lab where I experienced tutoring students both in 1 on 1 and in group settings. I tutor math because I am passionate about the subject. My approach to tutoring is to facilitatelearning by doing. I determine what each student needs to succeed by working through problems and scenariostogether.For my police side, I graduated valedictorianat the police academy and scored the highestin my class on the certification exam. I helped others in my academy through study groups and individual instruction.In my spare time I enjoy fitness and video games. I have made friends from all over the world from gaming, and I even traveled to Iceland for a conference!

My mission here is to not just teach but empower and motivate students to reach their full potential. I took a plethora of STEM courses in college and understand that the assistance of others in these courses is essential to becoming successful throughout ones academic career. My main strengths are Mathematics, Physics and Economics

I am a Junior at Southern Methodist University. I am majoring in Applied Mathematics and minoring in both Creative Computation and Computer Science. I have a lot of experience tutoring. For the duration of my spring semester of my sophomore year, I tutored at a low-income public school on the western side of Dallas. I made sure the students understood by making them feel comfortable with not understanding a concept. By establishing this comfort, I was able to get honest responses when a topic or idea was not understood. My favorite subjects to teach are upper level maths, because you can build on understanding by deriving the formulas needed. Outside of school, I like to work out, code, and read.

I am passionate about the subject of History and, more importantly, working with students to not only understand the amazing stories, resonating themes and key events but also how studying History helps to develop communication and critical analysis skills - both of which are more in demand than ever in the professional and academic worlds.

I have a huge passion for basketball and have been playing since I was around 5 years old(Go Mavs!). I have lived in Dallas my entire life and am a proud Texan! I love spending time with my family and have three incredible siblings that are obnoxious yet entertaining at the same time.I graduated from SMU this past May, receiving a Bachelor of Business Administration degree in Finance, a Bachelor of Science degree in Mathematics, and a minor in Management Science. I currently work as a Associate Financial Analyst at Bell Helicopter. I aim to pursue an MBA after gaining a few years of job experience.As a member of the National Honor Society, I tutored students in all high-school subjects my junior and senior year. I also tutored middle-school students in an after-school program during the spring semester of my first-year at SMU. I went on to informally teach and tutor underclassmen friends throughout my last two years at SMU in all college-level math subjects as well as statistics, accounting, and finance.I am a people person, meaning I love connecting and getting to know others. As a tutor I always strive to first get to know the student, build a friendship, and then dive into the learning content. Although I am the tutor, I love the opportunity to learn from my students. It is critical to understand that tutoring can not be implemented successfully using a "one size fits all" strategy, and I love the challenge of finding what strategy works best for each student and working with them to ensure they become proficient in that area/field of study.

I believe that helping others is the greatest thing you can do in life and that is what I am here to do. I'm here to help you with whatever you need and do it with a very patient and different approach.

I have tutored individuals and classes for 25+ years. I enjoy helping kids understand math.

My name is Sara, and I am passionate about anything related to finance. I am a CFA charterholder with 4 years of buy-side credit analysis experience. I'm happy to help you with your financial and accounting courses

I have over thirty years experience as a mechanical design engineer, engineering analyst, and engineering manager in the aerospace, semiconductor equipment, and automated electronic test equipment industries.I also have over fifteen years teaching engineering courses at the community college and university levels.I am looking forward to helping you with your skills development as you prepare for your career goals.

I graduated from Southern Methodist University in 2023. There, I received my Master's in Business Management and my Bachelor's in Health and Society with a minor in Psychology. I attended that prestigious academic institution on an athletic scholarship throughout my 4+ years. Since graduation, I have gone on to pursue my collegiate sport at the professional level. I am currently a full-time professional soccer player for Spokane Zephyr FC. My love for soccer will never fade, but my true passion lies in helping others in need and affecting positive change however big or small. If I can help even one student and serve as a resource to assist them in their areas of need, my day will be made! I can tutor a variety of subjects and topics, but I am most passionate about French as it is my native language. I also enjoy Math and numbers up to a certain level. Above all, I enjoy sharing and spreading knowledge and seeing students surpass themselves in ways they did not think possible. I seek to foster an enjoyable learning environment where all questions are welcomed and all needs are met. In my spare time, I like to do a little bit of everything and partake in activities that pair well with my active lifestyle. When I am not on the soccer field, you can find me outside in nature taking a stroll, reading, writing, playing basketball, binge-watching my favorite show, or cooking.

I am passionate about fostering a love of learning and especially reading in students. I believe that when students are able to have fun, they learn better. I love to game-ify concepts once students are beginning to show mastery. My specialties are reading, writing, and I am a licensed dyslexia therapist.

Growing up, I never had the dream of teaching. I simply was in love with being a learner and a student of life. As I learned, I grew into the idea that knowledge contained power, if I only I could understand and apply it appropriately. This was largely in part to having instructors who taught me that the value of education was much deeper than receiving a piece of paper or a good career. They taught me that the value of education was being able to understand life as we know it and being able to transform it through the power of our mind and the information we put in it. As I participated in the process of learning this way, I fell in love with the experience and desired to replicate it as much as possible. As I continued to learn, I naturally began to teach.While I have always been one to share what I know when helpful and relevant, I didn't start working in an actual teaching capacity until I was a sophomore in college. It was then that I became an in-classroom tutor for the Little Rock School District in Little Rock, Arkansas for a program called AVID. AVID stands for Advancement via Individual Determination and was largely aimed at offering students from disadvantaged backgrounds extra skills in studying, life skills and college preparation. I thoroughly enjoyed the holistic learning that was built into the model. I worked with students who had unique stories that revolved around living urban life. Many of them had no interest in school because they had real life problems at home. So, in one of our sessions together, I learned what their favorite songs were, pulled up the lyrics, projected them onto the screen and we learned the different styles of poetry that were written into the music they loved. This is an example of how learning can be applied in such a way that even education about rhetoric is transformative.After this, I went into substitute teaching where I was afforded the luxury of working with students on every grade level. While pursuing my masters degree at Southern Methodist University, I became a youth pastor and continued teaching ages 12-17 but this time about Christianity instead of public school curriculum. Bible study that was completely faith based before had become universally objective. I was not teaching the youth reasons why they should subscribe to Christianity. Instead, they were learning about how the teachings of Christianity have, will and can show up in our lives and the varying ways to view those teachings in light of history. Upon graduating, I became an adjunct instructor in humanities at Philander Smith College teaching courses in religion. It was here that my degree in English became critical as it was necessary to help many of my students in their writing.Writing is extremely vital. What we can produce from it has the capacity to allow us and our ideas to live forever. All of us have something inside of us worth sharing with the world. I enjoy helping my students find and cultivate the voice theyd like to say it with. It is important when working with people in general to establish positive relationships where we can accomplish our goals as our authentic selves. With my students, this means getting to know their learning styles and interests so I know best how to approach working with them. The range of studies I have been able to teach has afforded me to work with many different types of students. They have all different faculties and capabilities; No two students are alike. It is important to me to be aware of who I am working with so that I can reach each student equitably.As I continue to teach, my goal is continue creating experiences for students that transform and grow the value of education. My approach is to never tell a student what to think but to work with them in cultivating how they think and ensuring that their thinking is both critical and sound. By meeting students where they are, helping them digest and apply the information they learn, I can help them go where their goals can be reached.

I will patiently and persistently guide you or your student to understand the mechanics of the subject and identify which key elements are lacking in their understanding. I easily identify the learning style unique to each student and can teach to suit his or her needs. I am able to tell quickly how a particular student thinks and best learns, and from there I can either make the lessons more game-like or memory based. In every case, I approach the subject or concerning area from the most basic root and build from there. I have been working with children since middle school which made me a very patient tutor in college. Aside from helping my classmates, I formally worked as an English tutor through the Universidad Complutense, the Spanish University at which my study abroad program resided.

Although I have master's degrees in voice and also teach violin and beginner guitar, music is not my only language. I can help you with writing, editing, public speaking, or remembering material for a test. I have taught English language arts for three years and specialize in grammar and writing. I can tutor any elementary subject and most middle school subjects. In my third year of college I learned study, comprehension, and memorizing skills that I wished I had been taught in first grade! Don't wait to learn how to learn!

I have a Bachelor of Arts from Southern Methodist University. My major is World Languages French and Spanish and my minor is Economics. My graduating GPA was 3.67 and I am a member of several honor societies. I participated in the SMU study abroad program, and previously obtained an Associate of Arts in Teaching Degree in Foreign Languages with a GPA of 4.0.I also have over a year experience tutoring high school students in AVID program; moreover I was an intern for the French American Chamber of Commerce. I did my minor in Economics, which is the reason why I had to take many calculus courses and advanced math classes.I was born in Colombia, therefore my first language is Spanish; also I had the opportunity to study abroad in Paris while I was doing my undergrad career.I believe each student has the potential to master new concepts with the right approach and I will love to help you achieve your goals!!!

I am a PhD student at UT Southwestern Medical Center. I have received my Master's in Biotechnology at Johns Hopkins University and my Bachelor's in Biochemistry at Southern Methodist University. I've tutored middle school, high school, and college students in math (Algebra I & II, Geometry, Calculus I-II) and science (Biology, Chemistry, Organic Chemistry). I have the most experience with and enjoy teaching Algebra I & II and Chemistry though. I grew up as a athlete myself (figure skater) and so am aware of the strenuous schedule student athletes have and work to be as flexible as I can with my own schedule so that I can accommodate these students.

Helping fill the pedagogical gaps and providing individual attention are imperative to helping a student achieve academically.

I am a graduate of Washington University in St. Louis, where I received my Bachelor of Arts degree in Art History & Archaeology with a secondary major in History. I focused on medieval art and history and wrote my senior thesis on the Byzantine Basilica of San Vitale in Ravenna, Italy. Currently I am a Masters student in Art History at Southern Methodist University. Throughout my undergraduate education, I have taught and tutored children in various ways. My junior year of college I was a religious school teacher for First Graders. During the summer of 2012, I was an intern at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, at the Cloister's Museum and Gardens (which is a part of the Medieval Department). Throughout the summer, I led five to six, one hour tours throughout the galleries, teaching students from the ages of five to eighteen, all about medieval art. Additionally, I was inducted into Mortar Board National College Senior Honor Society my senior year of college. One of Mortar Board's missions is to help promote literacy. My chapter of the honor society worked with InspireSTL, a St. Louis based tutoring program, which places talented low-income middle school students into the region's top college-prep high schools and supports their ongoing academic progress, offering them a wide range of tutoring and financial assistance. As a group, we helped tutor the students several times a week. Working with InspireSTL I was asked to tutor a very wide range of subjects - everything from geometry to history to biology, to being asked to set up an impromptu grammar and sentence diagramming class! While I love the subjects of History and English, and have tutored and taught most subjects, I have realized that Standardized Test preparation is one of the most important steps in your education. With the right mentality and training, those tests can be an easy stepping-stone into the college of your dreams. I love learning and teaching and strongly believe that everyone deserves a world-class education, and I hope to be able to instill that desire in my students. In my spare time, when I am not in school or reading for my classes, I enjoy relaxing, doing yoga, playing tennis, and cooking - all of which re-energize me and get me ready for the next day!

I began tutoring younger students in various subjects when I was in high school and my natural talent for explaining concepts in a variety of ways began to emerge. My patient and caring nature allows me to reach a variety of students and help them reach a new level of understanding and knowledge. I enjoy tutoring all types of students and learners in all different subject areas.As a current 4th grade teacher, I value education and enjoy working with all types of students in both the classroom and in individual settings.

I was born and raised in Dallas and am a huge Mavericks and Rangers fan. I attended high school at The Hockaday School and received my BA from SMU. I am also a recent graduate from Indiana University Maurer School of Law.My tutoring experience began in 2003, when I decided to move to Chicago and spend a year with AmeriCorps. AmeriCorps is a lot like the Peace Corps, only volunteers stay in the US and work for a variety of independent charities and organizations. I worked for The University of Chicago Center for Urban School Improvement an initiative of the university to bolster education in some of the city's lowest achieving schools. During the school day I served as a Literacy Tutor for students in Kindergarten through 3rd grade. I also provided homework help and math and literacy tutoring for K-8 students in an after-school program. At the conclusion of the school year, I was part of a team of two tutors whose students demonstrated the most improvement of all the students in the program, and I was selected to attend the Leadership Training Seminar by the Illinois Commission on Volunteerism and Community Service. During this year I fell in love with the Windy City, the Cubs, and deep dish pizza. I also learned a lot about keeping students engaged by finding a way to help them relate to the material. I believe that the most effective teachers are those who are willing to learn from their students. Overall, it was an extremely rewarding experience.Also among my most rewarding life experiences has been the opportunity to study and travel abroad extensively. While at SMU I completed a summer session in the South-of-France and a semester in Paris. In law school, I spent a summer studying International and Comparative Law at Trinity University in Dublin, Ireland. Perhaps the most rewarding experience of all was being able to spend my final semester of law school as an exchange student at the University of Hong Kong, China. The chance to learn and study with students and faculty of diverse nationalities and cultures has been both enlightening and exciting. It truly generates appreciation for learning and the greater world community.My experience has taught me that, when it comes to education, learning isn't always confined to a classroom setting. I don't believe that superior performance on standardized tests is the most crucial part of one's educational experience, but high scores have become increasingly important across almost all grade levels. I have been fortunate enough throughout my academic career to have had good success with standardized testing. I was a National Merit Scholar and scored in the top 10% on the LSAT. Good preparation is vital for building confidence when facing intimidating exam conditions, and I believe my insight can be helpful to students wishing to improve test scores, reduce test anxiety, and raise general academic confidence.I truly enjoy working with students at all levels and from all backgrounds. I look forward to being a part of your child's academic success.

I received my BBA in Accounting from Southern Methodist University, and I am currently in the Master of Accounting program at the same university. I have not looked back since my first financial accounting course, and I greatly enjoy helping others better understand accounting. I know that just memorizing answers will get you nowhere in your accounting courses. I strive to help my students understand the why and how behind the answer so they can apply their knowledge to a greater range of problems.

I am a current graduate student at Marquette University studying to earn a doctoral degree in Clinical Psychology. I previously graduated from Southern Methodist University (SMU) with a B.A. in Psychology (with Distinction) and Sociology. While attending SMU, I worked as a tutor for high school and college students in the Dallas area. Prior to college, I also had the opportunity to tutor students in elementary, middle, and high school, while I attended high-school in California. The primary subjects I tutor include mathematics, psychology, and sociology, as well as help with study skills and test preparation. I also tutor students for the SAT math, GRE Quantitative, GRE Analytical Writing sections.I really enjoy all of these subjects equally so my ultimate goal is to create an individualized and enjoyable learning environment that fits each student's style in order to promote the most success. Each and every type of successful experience builds an individual's confidence, which will further motivate a student to learn more challenging concepts and subjects. I truly believe that every student has the ability to learn and be successful, which requires the right approach to the material and dedication to master the small goals in order to conquer the larger goal.In my free time I enjoy outdoor activities, such as bike riding, walking trails, and horseback riding. I also enjoy cooking and baking, reading mystery novels, and trying new coffee shops and restaurants.

I strive to tutor and teach in an encouraging, uplifting manner, and believe that acting as a teammate, mentor and friend to students leads to effective learning and positive results.I received my MBA from SMU in May of 2018, and prior to that, graduated from UT Austin in May of 2013 with a degree in Public Relations and Communications. I currently work as a wealth manager in the Park Cities, and have experience in finance, technology and professional services.

I am a retired elementary school teacher. I have a Masters Degree in Reading and Writing from Southern Methodist University. During the last 15 years teaching, I was a Dyslexia Specialist. I have been extensively trained in the Reading by Design from Region 4 and Neuhaus' Basic Language Skills. I taught intervention groups while in a school setting. I also have previously tutored students afterschool in person and online. A part of my teaching experience involved training my colleagues in the areas of reading and writing to assist them in becoming highly qualified educators. I am a lifelong learner. I love learning new things and view failure as a teacher. It is the things that we struggle with that makes us grow. Anyone can learn from their failures with a growth mindset.

I graduated summa cum laude from Southern Methodist University in 2012. I received my Bachelor of Arts in political science and my Bachelor of Science in economics. After graduating, I immediately moved to New York City to attend Columbia Law School, where I will receive my JD in May, 2015. Throughout undergraduate, I regularly tutored economics, math, and statistics courses at the school's tutoring center, and helped several students to turn around their class performance. I also enjoy helping students prepare for standardized test, whether that be the SAT or the LSAT. Especially with regard to the SAT Math, I love helping students understand the various curveballs that CollegeBoard often throws, and assisting them in achieving better scores than they thought possible. I am also passionate about Texas Rangers baseball, and fill an inordinate amount of my free time with fantasy sports and statistical research on the sport.

I am a professional Performance Artist with a deep love for Math and Science. I attended a fine arts magnet school from 5th grade until my graduation from high school, where I learned to maintain a healthy balance and integration of my passions for the Arts and academia. I approach tutoring on a case-by-case basis, allowing the student to inform me of what he or she needs and what methods of teaching work best for them. I always hold my students and myself accountable, expecting a reasonable amount of progress over a period of time from us both. I always do my best to integrate fun and play as I teach, so that the work for the students stays as far away from daunting as we can manage.
