I'm a Junior Undergrad pursuing BS in Physics at the University of Dallas. I have several years of math tutoring experience and stellar profficiency in all math levels Algebra I through Calculus II and intermediate physics. I like to approach tutoring by bringing out the intuitive beauty in math and physics. I encourage students to learn how to think about problems comprehensively and logically, instead of just memorizing and reguritating. I really excell at this stuff and I like to help other people get on the same wavelength. For any concept in this level, you can rely on me being able to build an intuitive understanding of it from the ground up.

I am originally from sunny San Diego, California. Back in high school I was a tri-sport athlete playing volleyball, basketball and track for my school. My Senior year I was named the Female Scholar Athlete of the Year.I moved to Texas about four years ago to attend college, where I continued my passion for playing sports. I was a college athlete, playing both volleyball and running track. Furthermore, I was a SCAC Student Athlete and either on Honor Roll or Dean's List every semester in my undergraduate career. I double majored in college, earning my B.A. in both Psychology and Spanish from the University of Dallas. I am currently attending the University of Houston to pursue my Masters degree and (hopefully) my Doctorate in Counseling Psychology. In my spare time, I like to play guitar, and I am currently looking into finding a Krav Maga studio near me so I can start taking that again. Also, I love to play with my little 5 pound puppy, Teagan.

My passion for teaching stems from helping my little brothers in school. I am the oldest of three, so it was always my job to help my brothers with their homework. Whiling teaching them, I have learned many things about them and myself. First, I learned that people learn differently, so you cannot approach teaching each student in the same way. Second, I learned that a comfortable environment is important to a student's success. Last, I found that helping a student succeed is very gratifying. I think education is very important and I am very enthusiastic about learning, so I hope to share that with my students.

I have been teaching and tutoring LSAT prep for over ten years. I have a Bachelor's in English from the University of Dallas, a JD from Boston College Law School, a second Bachelor's in Music from Texas Woman's University, and a master's in Musicology (music history) from the University of North Texas. I practiced law for a little more than five years, first in Massachusetts, then in Texas (yes, I took and passed both bar exams the first time). I practiced predominately Immigration law, and left the practice of law because of a medical condition. When I stopped practicing is when I returned to school for my music degrees and started teaching. I love the LSAT because I think the questions are all fun puzzles and I can see the connections between the questions and skills I used as a lawyer. I enjoy working with students to help them find the tweaks to their thinking that help them work efficiently and accurately. I approach the material through dialogue with the student so that I can learn how the student sees the material and work together to identify key aspects of the test questions and how to distinguish right answers from wrong answers.

I am a student at the University of Dallas studying towards a double major in Business and Mathematics with a French Language and Literature Concentration. I achieved near-perfect scores on both the ACT and SAT, and I am passionate about helping students score well on these exams to pursue their higher education goals. I have always been a high-achieving student, and I was my high school's valedictorian, a National Merit Commended Scholar, and a Presidential Scholar Qualifier.I have over 3 years of mathematics tutoring experience with students in grades K-12, and I love to help students build confidence in analytical and applied mathematics at all levels, from simple addition to complex calculus.In my free time, I enjoy planning events for my residential community at UD, exploring the DFW area, and spending quality time with friends - always with a cup of coffee in hand! I look forward to working with you to help you strive for success in all that you pursue.

Hi! I am a seasoned educator and tutor with a Ph.D. in Literature, an M.A. in Literature, and an M.B.A. in international business. I have taught many, many students to write, read, speak, and think academically. Since 2005, I have worked taught in universities in China, Bosnia, the UAE, Afghanistan and Bahrain (teaching our troops!) and Cambodia. I recently returned to the USA. If you are feeling uncertain about your writing assignments, your English or Literature courses, public speaking, or standardized testing, I believe I can help! No one is born with the ability to read, think critically, and write an essay that will get people to stand up and take notice. These are skills that everyone must be taught to become successful, and they can be learned. Students often think they 'just aren't capable' of improving their skills, but as a professional who specializes in English and Writing, I know they are wrong. Every student, with the right motivation, systems, and tools can improve their skills. I have been teaching and tutoring students for over 20 years. As a professor, I know what steps students need to take to become better in writing, reading, literature, critical thinking, and public speaking. As a faculty member at universities and colleges for over 20 years, I know what will be expected of students both in educational settings, and in the professional world after they graduate. I love to work with students, and I have had a great deal of success in helping them to improve. I have developed proven methods to give students the help they need to write better essays, read with greater comprehension, and test more effectively. Most students tell me that I am funny, and that my lessons are far less 'painful than they expect them to be! I look forward to working with you-

I am very passionate about helping students because of the satisfaction I get seeing that "click" go on inside their heads. The first time I tutored, I was in high school, where I was both the leader of the peer tutoring group and a 1-1 peer tutor myself. When I was a leader, I taught the other peer tutors a way to not simply tell them the answer, but to always help students come to their own answers. This is exactly what I did in my own 1-1 sessions, and I saw my student's grades go from F's to A's.I received my high school education at GreatHearts Academies. They offer a liberal arts education that prioritizes the same philosophy that I implemented. The University that I am currently attending is University of Dallas, which I picked because they had similar philosophy to my high school. At the moment, I am an undergraduate Army ROTC (Reserve Officer Training Corps) working towards my Biochemistry degree (Bachelors of Science), and my overall goal is to become an Army Physician.The subjects that I am tutoring are math (up to Calculus 1), Chemistry (up to Organic chemistry 2), and Physics (up to General Physics 1). My favorite of the three is by far organic chemistry. When I was little, I loved playing chess and the puzzle that always came with it. In organic chemistry, I saw the whole subject as one giant puzzle. I used to love to solve all these puzzles that it had to offer, and it quickly became my favorite class. With math, I like it for the same reason. Math always came easy to me. This was the subject I tutored that transformed my 1-1 student's grades from high school from F's to A's.Outside of school, I'm really into working out. I love to get with some friends lifting heavy weights or running. I love the feeling of getting into the gym, where we would all encourage each other to go for higher weights or better times. Some of my best memories are exactly that.Overall, I am confident any student who works with me will improve. I will make sure to work on each student in the best way that works for them. My goal as a tutor is to make sure that the student accomplishes their goal.Thank you.

After graduating with a BA in English from the University of Dallas and a Master of Arts from the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art, I went on to teach classes of 6-11th grade students at Trivium Preparatory Academy for 3 years in English, Writing, and Math. I also tutored students individually for all sections of the SAT and ACT during my time there, and I have continued to do so for the past year with Varsity Tutors. I love teaching English and Literature because I have a passion for storytelling, and I enjoy teaching Math and Grammar because of their rational nature and the enjoyment that comes from solving logic puzzles. When I am not teaching, I enjoy going to the movies, spending time with my five younger brothers and sisters, and volunteering within MENSA. I believe that learning can always be made fun and is extremely rewarding when you put in the work. I look forward to sharing my love of all these subjects with you as a future student, and I look forward to meeting you!

I believe in giving every student an experience of success every time they meet with me. I will meet you where you are, no matter where that is, and help you take the next step on your academic journey.

My passion for education began in college while tutoring K8 math. For the past 10 years, I've worked in Special Education and now serve as an Educational Diagnostician. I'm dedicated to understanding learning struggles, identifying the root of a student's disconnect, and building the foundational skills that guide them toward their next milestone.

I am in the process of transitioning careers from an attorney to a high school social studies teacher. I plan to start teaching in the fall. I have a rich background in a rigorous liberal arts education thatwould enable me to tutor in a diverse range of subjects, as well as guide students to think more critically, read more closely, and write more crisply and powerfully. My legal education and experience have further enhanced these skills. Most importantly, I love learning and have come realize that it is my vocation to share and impart that love of learning in others.As beautifully put by Roman Stoic philosopher Seneca in his moral epistles: "[P]art of the joy in learningis that it puts me in a position to teach; nothing, however outstanding and however helpful, will ever give me any pleasure if the knowledge is to be for my benefit alone. If wisdom were offered me on the one condition that I should keep it shut away and not divulge it to anyone, I should reject it. There is no enjoying the possession of anything valuable unless one has someone to share it with."

I homeschooled for my whole education up to college, which allowed me to finish Calculus III before graduating high school. Currently, I attend University of Dallas, where I am studying for a math/science degree.I tutor for all middle and high school math, as well as for standardized tests like the ACT and SAT. I am very patient, and I enjoy working with students. When I tutor a student, I try to discover the root of the problem, usually a misunderstood or inadequately explained concept. Once I find the problem area, I can explain it as clearly and as simply as possible. If the student doesn't "get" the explanation the first time, I am willing to spend as much time on the concept as the student needs.In my spare time, I enjoy playing the piano, making and playing video games, and spending time with my friends (often to discuss geeky subjects). If I sound like a good fit for you, or if you want to know more, I encourage you to contact me.
