I am currently an undergraduate student at Stanford University, and I recently graduated top of my class from Phillips Academy, a prestigious private boarding school in Massachusetts. For the past few years, I have tutored students of all different ages, serving as a peer tutor, faculty-nominated department tutor, and mentor for elementary school students. Although I tutor many different subjects, I am particularly passionate about Writing, Math, Physics, and Economics. My tutees and I always have a lot of fun revising essays, and academic research experience has given me a better appreciation of the other subjects. I am also well-versed in standardized test prep. My teaching philosophy is that no subject or concept is beyond the capabilities of any studentwe must only find the right teaching method. I would characterize my tutoring style as adaptable and empowering. I want to focus on not only solving the given problem or revising an essay, but also developing the skills and thinking process to apply to other assignments. For instance, one of my preferred teaching methods utilizes the Socratic method.

I am interested in working for Varsity Tutors because I enjoy helping others learn new concepts and progress in whatever they are struggling with. I have significant experience tutoring with a variety of age levels and would be delighted to have an opportunity to work with students through this opportunity.

I am a graduate of Dartmouth College, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in English and minored in Education, and Stanford University, where I earned a Master of Arts in Education with a focus on 8-12th grade English Language Arts. Since graduation, I have been working in a private Catholic school in Cambridge, Massachusetts, teaching English primarily to 9th and 10th graders students. I also teach a course on Creative Writing, which is open to all students and examines how to craft a compelling narrative in any medium, including college essays and fiction. As a learner and an educator, I have always been most passionate about reading and writing because I believe each student should have the tools to critically examine and better the world around them. I firmly believe that every person is a lifelong learner with strengths to build upon and areas to improve in, and I have committed myself to supporting scholars in that learning process.

I'm currently a second year medical student at New York Medical College. I spent the last 4 years doing synthetic biology research at NASA Ames Research Center out in California. I graduated from Stanford University with both a bachelors and masters degrees in biology.

In high school, I was a member of the Shortridge High School Daily Echo newspaper. It was one of the few daily high school newspapers in the country. For three years, I was an editorial columnist on health and wealth topics for the Indianapolis Star. Due to the compelling topics and timeliness of issues, I appeared on local NBC and FOX 59 news segments. I am an author of two Personal Finance books Women and Money and The Value Book and a historical book, Indiana Avenue Life and Musical Journey from 1915 to 2015.I have a B.S. degree in Environmental Science from Stanford University and an MBA degree in Finance from Indiana University Kelley School of Business. I have completed 25 hours towards a Master of Science degree in Biomedical Writing from the University of the Sciences in Philadelphia.I have worked at Fortune 100 and major pharmaceutical companies such as Eli Lilly and Covidien.Tutoring ExperienceSince high school, I have tutored and mentored students from elementary to graduate school. I enjoy working with young people and helping them achieve a thirst and enthusiasm for learning! The best part of tutoring is to witness "the light bulb turning on" as students improve their skills and confidence.My areas of expertise are Writing, Business Writing, College English, English Grammar and Syntax, Essay Editing, Composition, Middle School Reading, Middle School Reading Comprehension, Middle School Writing, Finance, Personal Finance and Technical Writing.I enjoy reading, writing, exploring science, traveling, watching sports and meeting new people.

My name is Anudeep Mangu, and I hold a Doctorate in Materials Science and Engineering from Stanford University. With almost a decade of tutoring and mentorship experience, I specialize in Physics, particularly in AP Physics C: Electricity and Magnetism. I am also comfortable teaching Algebra and Calculus. My teaching philosophy centers on fostering a deep understanding of concepts by starting with the foundational "why" behind each topic. I believe that connecting complex ideas to students' interests enhances their learning experience. My goal is to create a supportive learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and exploring challenging concepts. I am passionate about helping students grasp the principles that underpin our modern world, and I find joy in guiding them through the problem-solving process. In my spare time, I enjoy exploring new technologies and concepts in science, which continually enriches my tutoring approach.

Maryam Garba has a track record of successfully teaching and mentoring students of all ages. She grew up in a family of teachers and this inspired her to take on tutoring from a very young age. Maryam is a certified teacher with 12 years of ESL teaching experience along with 6 years of ACT, SAT, LSAT, and TOEFL tutoring experience. Maryam is extremely passionate about helping all students achieve academic excellence. Over the course of her tutoring career, many of her students have become high school valedictorians, AP scholars, Dean's List awardees, scholarship recipients and published authors. However, she also understands that credentials and grades are not everything. Maryam's goal is to inspire a love for learning in all her students. Maryam holds a Master's Degree in Education from the Harvard Graduate School of Education and a Bachelor of Arts in Human Biology and African Studies from Stanford University.

Learning occurs best in a relaxed and pleasant environment. Let's work hard, achieve goals, and have fun!

Learning is a lifetime journey - and you're never too old to embark on a new chapter. Take up painting for fun, a martial art, read a book in a subject you never thought you might be interested. Above all, remember to keep yourself exploring new and different latitudes.

I'm a highly creative person who works best with visual thinkers. Very recently graduated from Stanford University, I majored in Human Biology with a concentration in Bioinformatics and Stem Cell Science. Technical though my background may be, I am currently gigging as a singer/songwriter/composer in NYC and tackle even the most hard-science of problems with a top-down, big-picture, holistic approach. If you have a propensity to look at problems in a cross- or inter-disciplinary manner (or want to learn how to do so), I'm the tutor for you!

With a Bachelor of Arts in chemistry from Rice University and a PhD in biophysical chemistry from Stanford University, I have passion for science and mathematics that I love to share as a teacher and tutor. I am firmly of the belief that learning a technical subject like chemistry, physics, or math is much like learning a foreign language: listening and reading is much easier than speaking and writing. It is all too easy to fall into the trap of believing that if you come to class and understand what the instructor is saying, you don't need to practice the material. Accordingly, I emphasize the need to practice "speaking" the language on a regular basis and to receive immediate feedback on one's learning. In my free time I enjoy woodworking and playing with Legos with my small children.

My name is Cameron and I recently graduated from the University of Arizona with a BS in Molecular and Cellular Biology. Next year, I will become a Genetics PhD student at Stanford University. I have experience tutoring people of all ages and backgrounds in science and math. I find tutoring to be a rewarding experience and I view it as a way to pay-it-forward, as I have also needed the assistance of tutors throughout my academic career. My expertise stems from the coursework in my undergraduate degree and from my previous job as a paid scientific researcher. As the only scientist in a large family, I am also very good at communicating scientific and mathematical concepts in refreshing and understandable ways.
