Howdy! I'm Adam, and there aren't many things I love more than helping others learn! Growing up, I always tutored my two brothers, which is how I discovered my love for teaching. Even after so much time, I still love working with students to learn new things, especially conventionally difficult topics, like Mathematics and Engineering! As someone who has already been there before, I understand just how difficult it can be to keep up with the demands of STEM. I have personally assisted dozens of students who felt hopeless and left behind by their curriculum. Let me help you, too!

I am an experienced teacher, lover of languages, and taco enthusiast. Born and raised in Texas, I recognized the value of bilingualism from a young age, as well as my interest in teaching. Teaching high school Spanish to a mix of second language learners, heritage learners, and native speakers has allowed me to simultaneously experience two of the most beautiful moments in the world. The first is the "light bulb" moment, when a student grasps a difficult concept, and the second is what I like to call the "Hablas espaol?" moment, when an instant connection is formed with someone who immediately feels comfortable in the knowledge that you understand their mother tongue. I have been working in the field of education as either a tutor or a teacher since 2013. I have tutored and/or taught Spanish, English as a Second Language, and English writing skills. I graduated from Texas State University in 2016 with bachelor's degrees in Spanish and English, and from the University of Texas at San Antonio in 2019 with my master's degree in Teaching English as a Second Language (TESL). During the 2016-17 school year, I had the opportunity to teach English in Spain on a Fulbright grant, which exponentially expanded my view of what it means to be a Spanish speaker in terms of linguistic variety and taught me the value of stepping outside of my comfort zone to learn more about other cultures. I also take advantage of every available opportunity to increase my knowledge of linguistics, language teaching and pedagogy, and Spanish as a heritage language. To this end, I served as the vice president of the Texas Language Education Research conference (TEXLER) in 2019, and participated in the 2020 NHLRC heritage language teacher workshop.

Hello! My name is Ms. Trimmer. I am a dedicated reading and literacy tutor with a background in supporting diverse learners, including students with dyslexia and special education needs. I focus on building strong foundational skills in phonics, fluency, and comprehension while creating a supportive and engaging learning environment. My goal is to help students grow in confidence, independence, and academic success.

I have been teaching Basic Writing and English classes for several years, along with Literature courses. My experience with tutoring comes from when I was a graduate student. I worked as a tutor for the Athletic department. As a tutor, I would work with those students that had missed class the day of the lessons they needed. I reviewed papers and assessed learning. As an instructor, I learned this to be valuable in the classroom. I often held workshops that would require students to exchange their papers with one another. This would help them learn how to catch the mistakes in their own papers as they often did not see it in their own work. I will walk through the writing process with each student, until they are satisfied with the end paper. As writers we know that the hardest part of Writing is starting. I will help you through this process. I love to write, I love to teach others, and I love people!

I love teaching and learning. I work very hard to always try to improve everyone and everything around me. By this, I mean that I always offer my knowledge and skills to those with whom I interact and frequently go out of my way to help those who ask. Additionally, I learn through teaching and greatly enjoy helping others increase their skills, understanding, and knowledge of the world.My background is varied. After high school, I joined the United States Marine Corps for 4 years. After training, I worked for 3 years as primarily a hazmat operator and trainer. I was also deployed to Iraq for a year during Operation Iraqi Freedom.After the Marines, I moved to the San Antonio region to attend the University of Texas at San Antonio. There, I studied Psychology (major) and Business (minor) with Honors Coursework. I made it a point to attend supplemental instruction classes and help study/teach other students. I often arranged study groups, note or course work exchanges, and one-on-one work with other students. For my electives and core curriculum, I preferred to take challenging classes such as college algebra, bio 1 and 2, general chemistry 1, and honors lectures on advanced psychology processes and pathology. As a capstone, I structured, proposed, and wrote an undergraduate thesis finding a positive relation between test anxiety and trauma-related psychopathology symptoms. I truly enjoyed learning and working in my undergraduate career.I then attended graduate school at the University of Central Florida studying Clinical Psychology. During my two years here, I studied advanced research methods, psychopathology, and evidenced-based therapy techniques. Here, I made it a point to type up my class notes to email to my cohort to help me and my fellow students learn. I also interned for 1.5 years doing psychological assessment, individual, and group counseling. Within 1 to 2 years, I hope obtain a license as a professional counselor and to continue my studies to a PhD in Counseling Psychology.On a more personal note, I am excited to work at Varsity Tutors. I like to give back to all peoples and to my community. When I think about my life and my struggles, I know that some type of tutor would have been so helpful for me. I know that my education has helped improve both myself as a person and my quality of life, and I am happy for the opportunity to assist others with their learning and education.

I received my bachelor's in communications from the University of Maryland Global Campus while traveling the world as a military spouse. Traveling allowed me to experience different cultures and new ways of learning. I am currently working on two master's programs, one a degree in social work with the University of Texas at San Antonio. Where I maintain a 4.0 GPA after one year in program. The other is a master's in public health at Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center, where I am in my first semester. Since I have experience in both on campus and a distance learning, I have an edge when it comes to the type of learning needed to succeed. My experience with students started as a middle schooler who was asked to tutor a Korean boy in English. Moving on from there, I tutored informally throughout high school and college. I currently work with other graduate students. I tutor in English, communications (including media and journalism), human resources, and English as a second language. When I am not working or working on schoolwork, I enjoy spending time with my three children and grandbaby, as well as my husband. We like to travel, both in Texas, around the country, and to other continents. I look forward to productive partnerships with future students.

I believe in creating the best for ourselves. The world is a difficult place that we underestimate when we are young. At every corner we shall be tested. With a positive attitude, discipline and hard work we can overcome those obstacles. But we should find ways to enjoy ourselves in the process. It's my job to create a comfortable environment where a student can feel at ease and willing to take risks, to experiment, to fail and then get back up. People best learn by falling down. I encourage mistakes and risks. If it's an essay, write whatever you feel. I'm here to tutor, so we can just go back and edit work until it's right. If we never give our students a sense of success and ownership over their work it will hard for them to feel invested in it. I want every student walking away from a sessions saying "I earned that."

I am a 2024 graduate of the University of Texas at San Antonio, with a BS in physics and minors in math and computer science. I am currently a 2nd year physics PhD student at Penn State. My passion for tutoring started in high school, where l tutored AP Physics 1, 2, and C, as well as AP Calculus AB and BC. I was also a tutor at Mathnasium, where I tutored algebra, geometry, and pre-calculus. I have worked with students from middle school all the way to advanced college levels. Seeing others experience that 'aha' moment when they understand a complex concept brings me such joy, and it's the reason I'm so passionate about tutoring and mentoring. My philosophy is that there is no such thing as a basic or silly question: I know what it feels like to look at a problem and not even know where to start. Education is about learning new things, and if I am able to help someone learn something new, I've achieved my goal as a tutor.

I finished my college education in 2001 by earning my Ph.D. in economics from Texas Tech University. I have been a college-level economics teacher beginning in 1992 and have been teaching economics students since then. Over the years, I have learned much more about the economics discipline itself, how economists do economics. Throughout my career, I have treated all my students as adults, respecting their ideas and opinions, having learned as much from them as they have learned from me. Believing all learning is initiated from a point of knowledge, I want to know where students are in their programs, what are their strengths and weaknesses especially. I help them leverage their strengths in addressing their weaknesses. This in the end makes for a more confident student, someone who not only believes they can accomplish that which they face on their own, but one who will overcome their challenges and will accomplish their goals. This approach is what I have taken over my lifetime in regards my own learning needs and as lifetime learner. I attest this approach to life has been enjoyably fruitful.

I have had a ton of experience with working with students in both early and upper elementary. I have been teaching 4 years, and specialize in ELA, and Social Studies.

I am most passionate about Reading, Writing, and literature. I also have experience with small group, one on one intervention, and standardized test prep. I believe education is truly the key to having a successful life. No matter where you are, someone can always teach you something. "The goal is never perfection, but excellence."

With 10 years of experience teaching ELAR and Special Education, I am passionate about helping students build confidence, strengthen their skills, and achieve their goals.
