Award-Winning Tutors from Temple University

Hi everyone! My name is Ishika Kohli and I am a first year medical student at Robert Wood Johnson (Rutgers) Medical School with a Bachelor in Science in Neuroscience (4.0 GPA). I have been teaching professionally for 7 years now, ranging from phonics to AP classes to SAT prep. My most common subjects are Algebra, Biology, and Organic Chemistry. I love getting to know new students, assessing their learning styles, and helping them through different and difficult coursework.

I am a graduate from Temple University with a Bachelors of Liberal Arts in Psychology. I've worked children and teens as a Teen Leadership Assistant and in work study. I love working with children of all ages and helping them gain that a similar spark for learning that I obtained as a youth. I aspire to share my knowledge and maybe even learn a little from those who I tutor. My future aspirations consist of pursuing a Masters degree in Business Administration and Counseling. I have a love for being well-rounded and flexible.

Hello! I am Matthew, a former Wall Street analyst and university professor with an NYU Stern MBA in Accounting and Quantitative Finance, CFA Level I, and five FINRA securities licenses. My teaching philosophy is simple. I find exactly where you are stuck and rebuild the concept from there using real world examples, not academic jargon, so the material stays with you long after the exam. If you are convinced you are just not a numbers person, that is exactly the situation I enjoy working through.

I am a health and behavior researcher and educator. I love teaching, public health, and psychology! I have taught many subjects including statistics and epidemiology to students of all backgrounds.I love helping people, and meeting them where they are in terms of knowledge, understanding, and comfort. Each person has strengths, and they can be applied to almost any subject. The challenge for tutors is to help connect each students' strengths with the subject matter.

As a passionate educator with an ongoing Master's in Early Childhood Education and Special Education from Chestnut Hill College, I thrive on helping students discover their potential. With over five years of various tutoring experience, I specialize in reading intervention and elementary subjects, including English, math, and science. My teaching philosophy centers around creating a supportive learning environment that encourages curiosity and confidence. I believe in tailoring my approach to meet each student's unique needs, fostering a love for learning that extends beyond the classroom. In my free time, I enjoy exploring music and literature, which inspires my creative teaching methods. I am dedicated to guiding my students toward academic success and personal growth.

My name is Bisoye and I am studying at Temple University studying political science with a pre-law track. I aspire to help students at all levels in humanities, specifically with reading, writing, and critical thinking. With a varied work experience, I have developed skills in tutoring and education and marketing.In my free time I love to run and sing! I'm currently on the Owl Club Track Team at Temple University and the President of an organization called Hosting Our Own Talks!

Currently, I am a undergraduate senior with plans to graduate in May, 2024. My major is Mathematics. After graduation, I plan to further my education and get my PH.D. I tutor in subjects ranging from elementary school to high school. My favorite subject to tutor is Math. I specialize in Algebra 1/2, Geometry, Trigonometry, Pre-Calculus, and Calculus. My tutoring style is very flexible. I understand students learn in different ways, and I am open to working with what helps them learn best!

Here to learn and to help others learn! Creating an interest in learning and an understanding of the ways that knowledge can be intuitive and useful is key to creating life-long learners. Life-long learners can enrich their lives, both professionally and personally, much more effectively for the rest of their lives.I am currently a graduate student working towards an MFA in Creative Writing at Temple University. Prior to that, I have a year of experience teaching all subjects at a 10th grade level, and two degrees from the University of Arizona - A B.S. in Neuroscience and Cognitive Science and a B.A. in French Language, Literature, and Culture. I am passionate about learning more about the world and helping others to learn and understand more as well!

i graduated from the University of Delaware with a Bachelor of Science in Education. I also hold a Master of Education in the Psychology of Reading from Temple University. I am certified by the state of Pennsylvania as a teacher of grades K through 8 and as a reading instructor . I also have certification as a teacher of preschool, Pre-K, and K from the Pennsylvania Department of Private Academic Schools.I have enjoyed teaching all levels, preschool through fifth grade, as well as in special education classes. My experience has been with entire classes, large groups, small groups, and with individual instruction.Elementary school reading skills(phonics, fluency, comprehension) and elementary school math skills are my favorite subjects to teach. Because success with social studies and science concepts depends on effective reading skills, I enjoy teaching those subjects as well.I have especially enjoyed working one to one with students, because each lesson can be totally structured to meet that child's needs. During this past summer, I tutored a student via Zoom, and the experience was very rewarding for both of us.I am passionate about helping children achieve, grow, and gain confidence in a positive and supportive learning environment.I pace each lesson according to the student's needs, using the modality or modalities (auditory, visual, kinesthetic, tactile) that work best for her, so that the end result is a feeling of accomplishment, not frustration. If a student is having difficulty with a concept or skill, I'll say, "This one is difficult, so let's try another way!"To help maintain a positive momentum, I remind the student, throughout each lesson, of what she has learned and mastered. We also will take a 2 minute break to stretch, jump, or do a yoga pose to energize and get more blood and oxygen moving through our bodies and brains!At the beginning of the first session, I like to chat with the student, so that she feels more comfortable with me , and I also get to know a little about her. We also talk at the beginning of every lesson to catch up on what we've been doing since last time. This personal connection is so important, as it increases our ability to work together in a comfortable way.At the end of each session, we always talk about all that the student accomplished in that lesson. We also acknowledge any difficulties that the student encountered, with the assurance that we'll continue working on and developing that skill. Ending in this way helps the student to feel good about her progress and encourages positive feelings about the next session. It's a win-win!I am very committed to keeping parents /caregivers informed about our work and about any reinforcement that the parent or caregiver can give at home. Because I always feel positive about working with children, my discussions with parents are positive as well!

In 2011 I graduated from Temple University with a Bachelors of Science in the field of Neuroscience. As an undergraduate, I became really active in research, more specifically; I started investigating the effects nicotine has on learning and memory. By the time I graduated from Temple I had helped publish two peer reviewed journal articles. Both articles were published in the journal of Behavioral Neuroscience. Upon graduation, I was given the opportunity to teach classes on the research process and research ethics to undergraduate students. I also held workshops for these students on how to write a proper resume and personal statement for graduate school. This was only a six-week position but in that time my students conducted research in a laboratory on campus and wrote up their findings in a scientific research paper. At the end of the summer they presented their research at a conference in Atlanta, Georgia. I found it very rewarding to help my students go through this process in such a short period of time. I moved to Portland in 2012 because I was admitted into the Behavioral Neuroscience PhD Program at Oregon Health & Science University. After a year in this program, I realized that I missed working with and mentoring students and I decided to leave the program and pursue a Masters in Academic Advising from Kansas State University. I am currently a few months away from completing my masters degree and I am still living in Portland, Oregon (my degree is being completed online). I am currently working as a classroom assistant for a blind student at Portland State University. I help this student in the classroom and I tutor him outside of the classroom as well. I really enjoy working for the disability resource center and am very passionate about helping ALL students succeed in their academic endeavors. I believe that students all learn differently and what really helps one student learn a concept may confuse a different student. As a tutor, I try to assess how my students learn best and work off of their learning style. I also believe in working off of students' strengths. For instance, if a student struggles with writing argumentative essays, I will start off by giving him or her an essay about a topic they are really passionate about. This way they can see that they can actually like the writing process. Once we establish that they can actually do the task I will ask them to write about something that they are not as familiar with or something that does not interest them as much. I think it is really important to not treat all students the same when it comes to teaching because everyone thinks differently! I tutor a wide assortment of subjects: Elementary/Middle school level math, Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1, College level Statistics, Middle School/High School/College level English, college writing, ESL Writing/Grammar, Neuroscience/Psychology, and High School and Middle School science. I really enjoy teaching students about Psychology and the brain because I personally find it to be fascinating! I also love to help students with writing because I find it rewarding to see their progression over time. It makes me really happy when I see students' developing more complex arguments after just a few tutoring sessions. As far as my hobbies go, I am really interested in reading, writing, bowling, miniature golf, swimming and going to professional sporting events!

I'm overjoyed to be a part of your language learning experience. With three years Spanish teaching experience and about two years of tutoring, I implement multisensory instructional techniques during sessions and believe in learning through authentic exposure to the language. Games, scenarios, and exposure to authentic media will help to build proficiency during sessions. I believe that everyone has the ability to learn another language with practice and engagement!

Tutoring provides me the opportunity to work with students and connect with them in a manner that influences their enjoyment of a subject. My passion is science and math because it explains how the world works, how nature works, and how all the phenomenon around us work. I want all students to enjoy science and math, and understand how they impact us in our daily lives. As I watch the learning process unfold, I am able to watch those connections being made, and nothing brings me greater satisfaction than seeing that moment when a student has that clarity and feels empowered that they mastered something they thought they never could.I take a collaborative approach to teaching to ensure thorough understanding of the material, allowing students to also enjoy the learning process, and focus on pertinent applications of the material extending beyond the scope of a single assignment. I like to break concepts down into smaller, easy-to-manage parts, and then bring them back together once each part is mastered.I earned my Bachelor's degree in Criminal Justice and after 10 years as a police officer, decided to change careers to positively impact people through teaching. I will complete my Master's in Education at the end of the year. Outside of the classroom, I enjoy spending time with my 4 children, and I am also interested in photography and reading. I have been tutoring science and math for the past year at the local community college.

I am a graduate of Temple University with a B.S. degree in Civil Engineering. While at Temple I was Captain of the lacrosse team and graduated Summa Cum Laude before applying to medical school. I am currently a fourth-year medical student at Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School. My academic interests span the gambit ranging from engineering concepts to medical innovation, in particular those with an orthopedic focus. I have an extensive history of tutoring students at the middle/high school, college, and graduate school levels, including entrance/board exams such as the SAT, ACT, MCAT, and USMLE examinations. I am a firm believer that learning should be fun, enjoyable, and rewarding. I have found success tutoring students when I connect the concepts to everyday experiences and thoughts. Doing this helps students to understand them more easily. When I see a student grasp a concept they were having trouble with it brings me a sense of joy and accomplishment. I look forward to sharing my experiences and tips/tricks I have found helpful with others.

I have a B.A. in Journalism/Communications from Temple University and am currently working on my M.A. in TESOL at West Chester University. I work as a graduate assistant in the University Writing Center at WCUPA and coordinate the Conversation Partners program, which I also developed and implemented. I worked as a tutor at Burlington County College for two years where I focused on assisting students taking composition, literature, and ESL/ELL courses. I love to cook, bake, make candy, read, and travel abroad. I love experiencing new cultures and seeing everything the world has to offer. I was an exchange student in high school and spent time in Russia. During college, I studied in England.

I teach theatre and creativity at Temple University, Rowan University, and Stockton University. As a mentor of creative artists and scholars, I love helping students to develop skills and practices that allow them to communicate and organize their ideas in the strongest, most effective ways.So many intelligent students haven't mastered the techniques required for academic writing. It's something that all instructors in higher education struggle with. Fortunately, anyone can learn how to take ideas and sculpt them into a compelling, concise, and elegant paper. As someone who grades dozens of essays every week, I'm excited to help you develop writing abilities that will help you in virtually all of your academic coursework.Need help with that college application essay? I would love to sit down with you and not only make sure that your submission is error-free, but also give you ideas for generating creative content that expresses your unique story in a way that will catch the eye of your target institution.My passion is helping students learn to create, to generate solid and perhaps groundbreaking work. Regardless of your field, the ability to communicate your ideas will free you to maximize your potential.

I have devoted my life's work to the empowerment and advocacy to children in the most vulnerable communities. Working as a special education teacher, special educationadvocate, foster care case manager and eventually the head trainer for a non-profit mental health agency for children, I have witnessed and experienced first hand thestruggles that children and their families face on a daily basis. In my spare time I have volunteered at various schools creating curriculum for struggling students and workingwith teenage mothers.I hold a bachelor's degree in early childhood, elementary and special education from Temple University and a master's degree in human resources management from theUniversity of Maryland.

I went to Ohio State University and graduated with a bachelor of science in Mathematics! I love math, because as Kady explains in Mean Girls, I like math because it is the same in every country. I know a lot of people hate math, and I am here to try to change their minds...math is really great if you give it a try.I have tutored throughout high school and college my tutoring style involves being patient and going at your pace.Outside of academia, I am interested in yoga and traveling (I have been to 7 countries and am trying to add more whenever possible!)

I really enjoy tutoring science courses and helping students understand difficult concepts. I have experience in taking and tutoring for the MCAT.

Hey there! My name is Sam. I grew up in Teaneck, New Jersey, but Philadelphia is now my home, and I could not be happier about that. I am very passionate about education, both in and outside the classroom.From my sophomore year of high school, I knew I wanted to be an educator. As a recent graduate of the Temple University College of Education with a double major in Secondary Social Studies Education and History, I now have the requisite training to fulfill this longstanding dream of mine. No matter the subject, I am a dedicated facilitator of learning who will work my hardest to help students achieve their learning goals. My long term goal in education is to earn a doctorate degree and teach teachers.My philosophy of education is centered around facilitation. I believe my role as an educator is to be a resource for students as they work towards their learning goals. With my training as an educator, my responsibility as a tutor is to identify where students might be struggling and find creative solutions based on empirically proven methods. By the end of each session, my goal is for students to feel as though their perspective is empowered, while being closer to achieving learning goals than we began.On the personal side, I love to explore Philadelphia, especially the food scene, as well as listen to music, watch and play sports, and read non-fiction. I love supporting my alma mater, as a I am a football and basketball season ticket holder, and I serve on two alumni boards. While I enjoy learning about history of all sorts, my favorite subject is pre-Civil War politics.My biggest influence in education is Russell Conwell, the founder of Temple University. In his famous Acres of Diamonds speech, he said that "I do not request a larger garden, but finer seeds." It is this dedication to the foundations of teaching and learning that I bring most to the table as an educator.

I have spent the last four years teaching World History and AP U.S. History at the high school level and have had the opportunity to work as a curriculum planner for my school network. I bring a great deal of experience both in the classroom and out of it when it comes to content. My experience has not only allowed me to dive deep into the content you will need to study, but also find new and interesting ways to apply the content to our everyday lives. I look forward to meeting you and embarking on this journey to master the content and fall in love with history!

Hello, I've known that I would become a teacher since the age of 12. I have been retired for two years after a successful career from a large School District. I have also been tutoring for the past fifteen years. I continue to tutor because my passion is still teaching and helping students achieve academically.I received my undergraduate degree in Education from Temple University and a Masters of Education in Reading Curriculum and Instruction from Grand Canyon University. My favorite subjects to teach are reading, math and writing skills. I am able to break down these subjects to their bare elements which allows for student success. In addition, as stated above, my passion to assist young people (or all ages) in gaining understanding is truly what drives me. My philosophy for teaching is to first of all, present a non-threatening environment where the student feels free to make attempts to achieve. I also feel that the student must be made aware of what is expected in their learning, their strengths and weaknesses. I will then give them the tools which will guide them in advancement of the subject matter. Two outside interests are reading and sewing.

As a dedicated educator with a Bachelor's degree in History from Temple University, I have over 2 years of tutoring experience focused on US History, World History, and essay writing and editing. My teaching philosophy emphasizes creating a supportive and engaging environment where students can delve into historical narratives and sharpen their critical thinking skills. I am passionate about personalizing my approach to meet each student's needs, fostering a deeper connection with the material. My goal is to inspire academic success and cultivate a genuine love for learning in my students. Additionally, I am working towards a Master's degree in History and certificate in Museum Studies from the University of Delaware. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy reading historical monographs and exploring museums, which continuously enhance my knowledge and passion for the subjects I teach.

I believe helping people is universally beneficial. It is contagious to help those who have helped you in your life and I aim to instill motivation and resilience in students who find learning tedious and overwhelming. Education is most imperative in life and it must be nurtured meticulously.

As an elementary school teacher in Philadelphia, I am consistently focused on small group instructional models in my classroom to assist students in their particular area of academic instruction. Tutoring is where there are many different ways to approach and solve a problem, but the most important part is meeting a particular goal. Breaking down the focus skill, whether it be in reading, math, or science is of the utmost importance so my students can become independent learners.

I am currently taking classes at Temple University, majoring in middle school math and science education, and am expecting to graduate in the spring of 2016 with a Bachelor’s Degree in education. I tutor in almost any subject of mathematics and I am confident that I can help any student in this area. I am quite understanding and patient which helps me teach students who struggle or are easily frustrated with math. I am also confident in this area because of my ability to help students understand what steps they need to take or what techniques will be the most helpful to their own specific learning.My main goal for teaching is to help students develop problem solving and critical thinking skills. These are not only important for math but can be used in any subject and become increasingly important as students move on from school and into the working world. I also believe it is absolutely vital to create an environment in which students are comfortable asking questions, answering questions, and sharing their own ideas. I want my students to feel safe sharing ideas because this will facilitate the learning process and help reduce stress during teaching sessions. Finally, I believe strongly in the importance of learning from one's peers through social interactions. It is a great idea to practice problems and ideas with friends and classmates because you can see different ways to look at and solve problems.

After nearly forty years as a trial attorney, it is time for me to move to a new phase of my career. Education is not really a ???new phase??? as trying a case to a jury is primarily an educational activity where the classroom is the courtroom. More than anything, a lawyer trying a case is a teacher.Additionally, having taught in a classroom, I know the profound rewards of inspiring older and younger students to become more than they were before they entered. Teaching is about the future.Each student with whom I work gets a learning program specifically geared to his or her needs and goals. As we work together, those goals and needs may change and the student and I will adjust accordingly. The way a student learns best is as unique as their fingerprint and that is the way my instruction is developed for each student.

I am a recent graduate of Temple University with a Master's degree in Secondary Education and an undergraduate major in History. I tutor all available social studies subjects. Since 2019, I have worked as a substitute teacher. I have had a lifelong fascination with reading about different historical events and sharing it with those around me. Becoming an instructor is the natural conclusion of such a life, as well as the best way I can of service to the next generation. It is my hope that by illuminating past and present trends, my pupils can gain a greater understanding and appreciation of the world around them. I have always made sure to not treat any class as a monolithic entity. I am always ready to keep regular contact with both individual students and their guardians so that we can ensure academic and social excellence. As long as three key elements of teaching are satisfied-intelligent use of technology and materials, encouraging students to feel a personal stake in their learning, and fostering trust-any teacher-student relationship is bound to be successful.

I believe that learning programming as a practical skill is both fun and important as I do so in my free time. While my past experience is primary with younger students I find that if one is not capable of teaching what they've learned, they have not learned it well enough. I find myself giving lectures on game design and development concepts to any listening ear. I am currently working towards a Computer Science degree at Temple University as an Honors student. I can tutor programming, game design as well and have experience in making music for games. I can tutor high school programming. I am also able to tutor the SAT where my stronger suit would be math. I believe that anyone can do excellent in a subject with sufficient, and efficient practice.
