Hello! I am currently a fourth year medical student in Chicago. I attended the University of Notre Dame for undergrad, where I was a double major in Chinese and pre-medicine. When I am not studying, I enjoy spending time with family, volunteering, traveling, baking, and being active. I love sharing with others the knowledge and advice I have received in my education.
As a cybersecurity expert with a Master's degree in Information Security from Carnegie Mellon University, I have over two years of experience teaching and tutoring, including cybersecurity boot camps at Northwestern University and the University of Wisconsin-Madison. My passion for teaching stems from the joy of making complex concepts intuitive for my students; I often use relatable analogies, like comparing electricity to water flow, to facilitate understanding. I believe in a hands-on, student-centered approach that encourages curiosity and engagement. Beyond my professional life, I enjoy tinkering with electronics and have even taught automotive repair to others, reflecting my belief that learning can be both practical and enjoyable. My goal is to empower all learners to achieve their academic and professional aspirations in cybersecurity and computer science.
I am a graduate of the University of Illinois Chicago, with a B.A. in Psychology. I also spent my first 2 years of my undergrad at Hampton University. Since graduating, I have mainly worked with children in various capacities including mental health facilities, schools, and summer camps. I have a passion for helping others, especially our youth. I believe children really are the future and should be protected, encouraged, and poured into. My teaching philosophy is, patience is key! We don't always understand certain concepts right away and that's okay! I'm naturally patient, kind, and understanding. This is also how I would describe my tutoring style. My favorite subject to tutor is math because it's also my favorite subject! (Fun fact: I was a Mathlete all 4 years of high school!) Math reminds me of puzzles. I thoroughly enjoy working a math problem out, the same way I would with a puzzle! Outside of working on puzzles, I also enjoy listening to music and podcasts, writing for my blog, going to concerts, and doing anything that promotes and includes laughter! I look forward to working with you and helping you improve your grades!
I graduated from University of Illinois at Chicago where I received a Bachelor of Science in Neuroscience and a minor in Chemistry. In terms of teaching experience, I tutored Organic Chemistry at the Math and Science Learning Center at UIC and taught Arabic and STEM courses to young students privately. In the past I've been a helping aid to teachers who taught in the ESL program where I worked with students to strengthen their Reading, Writing, and Mathematics skills. I am most passionate about Organic Chemistry although I enjoy teaching all other sciences as well. In my experience helping college students with Organic Chemistry, expressing complex ideas in a couple sentences or diagrams is the most rewarding part of my work since it yields the most excited responses. I am a firm believer in the 'growth mindset,' where a topic deemed difficult is one that will become easy with practice and understanding. For me, the sentence "I don't understand this," is incomplete without a "yet." Overall, I am passionate about helping students achieve the understanding and grades they are capable of.
I'm currently in my last year of my physics PhD program. I have been tutoring online on Varsity since 2022. I have tutored college-level physics, Calculus, AP physics 1/2/C, AP calculus AB/BC, algebra, etc. On a separate note, I have been working as a Teaching assistant at my university (part of my PhD program) from 2020 to present. I have taught lab classes and problem-solving classes in college-level Physics classes such as Mechanics and Electromagnetism. I encourage trial-and-error. I believe making mistakes is the first step to learning anything. I focus on making materials interesting and showing different perspectives. I prefer a back-and-forth discussion style tutoring where we explore different ideas, rather than a lecture-style session.
Im currently an undergraduate bioengineering student at UIC minoring in economics and set to begin graduate work next fall. Before transferring to UIC I attended Augustana College and pursued degrees in physics and environmental studies. I hold excellent interpersonal and math skills and am good at explaining as well as doing math problems which in my opinion is somewhat of a rarity among science and math teachers. Throughout my youth I coached a swim team and have always gained an immense satisfaction from helping others. Tutoring is a win-win situation for both parties. The student becomes fluent and develops interest in a subject they have struggled with in the past and I gain from helping them improve and succeed. I like to make learning fun and strive to make the information relatable to my students. This way we can become excited about the subjects which makes learning that much easier. Mostly I am interested in tutoring math and math-related subjects including economics. Throughout sessions I will always try to convey exactly how important it is to learn the information, because like it or not, even if the student is not interested in learning, I want to convey that in life we often are forced into tasks that are not always enjoyable. Whats important is to persevere and understand that there is no other option but to complete the task or learn the material and we can only gain from giving it our best effort. During free time I enjoy reading The Economist magazine, playing table tennis and badminton, and eating Thai food. Thank you for your time.
I love teaching and understanding how minds learn.I am a retired math teacher, who just has too much time on her hands!!!I have a studied Mathematics and Computer Science, and have many years of experience in teaching math and statistics college students.The subjects that I usually teach are covering a broad spectrum of mathematics, CS, and finance Courses, at graduate and undergraduate level.I enjoy the same the complexity of doctoral level theoretical or hands on courses to introductory college algebra and statistics classes.Yes, you understood right, teaching is my hobby
I am a recent graduate with a Master's of Science in Medical Physiology from the University of Illinois and a Bachelor's of Science in Psychology from the University of Wisconsin. I will be attending the University of Illinois College of Medicine in 2018, and I am excited to assist fellow students be successful in their courses. I am most passionate tutoring students in Biology, Anatomy, Physiology, Psychology, and preparation for the MCAT.
I have a master's degree in mathematics and over a decade of in person classroom teaching. I also have a bachelor of science degree with over a years course work in both biology and chemistry. I have hands on experience in these fields from working in both biology and chemistry laboratory settings. I worked as administrator over a home school, teaching students from Kindergarten thru 12 grade, in math, science, and language arts and developing curricular materials. I have found from my teaching experiences that students learn best from active participation in the learning process, and are often encouraged with material that is practical and meaningful. My main goal in working with students who are having problems with a particular subject matter is to simplify the material as much as needed so that a student will get to the root of their difficulties and work from there to obtain a strong foundation of the subject material. I am not rigid in my approach. If a particular manner of subject presentation is not helping a student, I will use a different method to facilitate the learning process.
I am a University of California, Berkeley graduate with over 7 years of tutoring experience in English and Math (through Algebra) for students in grades KG through college.Professionally, I have recently worked for the California Department of Public Health as part of the Affordable Care Act ('Obamacare'), and an international Oil & Gas company, for which I was posted in Jakarta, Indonesia.I am passionate about helping students increase their proficiency and confidence in subjects in which they previously struggled.I am excited to meet you, and help you increase your academic proficiency! Let's learn while having fun! :)
Teaching is one of the most noble things a person can do, and it is one thing I have been doing for many years. Since arriving to Chicago in 2010, I have been active in assisting others in my community. I began tutoring children of various ages at the JHP community center, where I taught both academic and physical skills. More important than my teaching experiences, however, is my ability to touch other peoples lives. After starting college at IIT, I began to interact more with African immigrants, Latino students, and other groups. My experiences, conversations, and struggles with these individuals made me realize how racial and economic problems can affect school studies.One example was during my undergraduate studies when I noticed how the diverse student body, even international students, lacked knowledge about the scientific history of other cultures. I thus began working in the Math Club to promote events on Chinese, African, Arab mathematics. These initiatives were greatly appreciated by both staff and students.I thus learned the importance of personally connecting with others in order to better communicate with them. These were also the lessons I picked up while tutoring at-risk students at Pathways-In-Education. I also learned the need to work alongside teachers and other staff to ensure the organization could give the best possible support to each single student. This, combined with my years of assisting AP calculus teachers, has given me the ability to bond with both faculty and students, thereby creating a conductive learning environment for all people.I am thus confident I can help anyone excel in whatever field they need help in, particularly mathematics as it is one of my favorite subjects, as well the topic of my bachelor's degree.
Hi! My name is Sameena and I am a Biomedical Engineering student at UIC. I am very excited to start tutoring and hopefully help them gain a love for a subject. I have a passion for all things STEM, especially physics and math. I'm looking forward to meeting new kids and forming positive learning connections with the students.
I am a medical student at Midwestern University starting in August 2017. I recently graduated Midwestern University with a Masters degree in Biomedical sciences. Additionally, I attended University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC), where I received my Bachelors of Sciences degree in Biology. My expertise lies in the field of sciences, however I have vast amount of knowledge in wide array of subjects including elementary math, pre-algebra, algebra and American History, with a particular emphasis in the American Revolution time period. I have worked with many different types of students ranging from middle schoolers, high schoolers and even some graduate level students. My philosophy behind tutoring is that everyone is capable of learning, however not all students learn the same way. Each student must have an educational plan tailored to their strengths and needs in order to truly be successful. I pride myself in being able to work with different age groups, because it allows me to approach each student from a different perspective. Based off my previous experiences, I have found one-on-one tutoring to be a quite joyful experience for me, because I truly love teaching and it does not get any better then helping a student overcome a complicated topic.
I graduated from the University of Illinois at Chicago in May 2016 with a Bachelors of Science degree and majored in Biology. I will attend the University of Illinois at Chicago College of Dentistry in the fall.During my undergraduate years, I have tutored students in math (up to Trigonometry), writing, biology and chemistry and I absolutely enjoyed it! I feel great to be able to teach someone shortcuts to solve difficult problems and understand difficult concepts.I tutor the DAT (Dental Admissions Test) and especially enjoy the perceptual ability section of the exam. I teach crucial test taking strategies I have learned from attending an 8-week Kaplan DAT-prep course. I scored in the 80th percentile on the DAT in the Biology and Chemistry sections; and scored in the 75th percentile overall.I am eager to work with students who are falling behind, as well as students who want to get get ahead or explore outside of the normal curriculum. I enjoy working with students and find great pleasure in seeing my students succeed. I'm patient and am skilled at explaining ideas and concepts in multiple ways to accommodate the needs of the students. I have a laid back demeanor, and I try to make studying as stress-free and enjoyable. I will always answer your calls and texts and I'm great at responding to emergency "My problem set is due tomorrow?!?!" or "I have a test when?!" situations.I have a thorough knowledge of the Cornell style of taking notes in order to perfect note-taking and study skills. At my job at a high school, I assisted students in learning classroom material, encouraged students to challenge themselves, helped students self-analyze, reflect upon, and improve study methods, and also provided tips for remembering difficult material. In addition to providing general tips for all students, I tailor study practices to fit a student's individual needs.I am looking forward to helping you achieve academic success!

I am a current PhD student in mathematics at Northern Illinois University. I earned my B.S. in mathematics (with a minor in physics) at the University of Illinois Chicago. Throughout my schooling career, I have taught both professionally and informally to my peers, believing that access to quality schooling is a right for all students. Being in academia, I understand the frustrations that students may feel when encountering new and difficult information. It is my priority as a teacher to ensure that students receive the necessary confidence, background, and core ideas needed to attack these new problems at full force. In my experience, students learn and feel best when given ample time to fully explore the core reasoning behind their studies. It is my particular interest to apply this philosophy to learning both mathematics and physics. In my spare time I am an avid chess player and puzzle solver, and I appreciate a good read.
I obtained a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and a minor in Spanish from Grand Valley State University! I am currently getting a Master's of Social Work at the University of Illinois at Chicago. I offer tutoring in any level of Spanish and for various Psychology topics!When I was studying abroad in Spain for a semester I tutored some kids in English by helping them learn grammar and work on improving their conversational English. I also tutored basic Spanish speaking skills for a 12 week program to help people feel comfortable communicating with others in Spanish. Learning Spanish not only helps you to be more competitive for jobs, but also helps connect you with more people! I love teaching languages because it's one more way people can learn how to communicate with others in a variety of settings and locations. I love seeing the moment when people go from learning no Spanish to being able to understand even a simple sentence. That acknowledgement and realization that they have learned something new is very inspiring for me!I want to help you learn the best way that works for you. Some people are more visual learners, others more auditory, and others are more hands on. We will work together to see what works best for you!Outside of tutoring, I enjoy running and reading books to wind down after a long day!
As a future special education teacher and current substitute teacher, I am excited to become a tutor with Varsity Tutors.

I recognize the significance of interaction and dialogue within teaching; something I learned from working at Kumon. I tutored students during the summer and the holidays. By doing this, I received a passion for teaching. Currently, I am receiving my BA in Secondary Education for Teaching of History. Through this, I aim to give students as many learning opportunities and experiences as possible in order to help them engage in their studies.
Since high school, I have volunteered and participated in activities that always supported students. I loved being a literacy lab tutor because it helped others and also helped me. I enjoyed growing in the subjects I tutored, and the students' motivation always motivated me.

Highly experienced multimedia arts professional with in-depth knowledge of page layout, illustration, photo-retouching programs, web development and photography and film. Able to direct all aspects of design and production of multiple projects under tight deadlines while keeping a sharp eye on expense controls and profitability. Ability to market, inform and educate end-users the benefits of a project.
I love to learn and help others. Empathy, caring, and genuineness are noteworthy traits, without judging others. I am thankful to Pursue the Path of the Heart to seek meaning and a career pathway, as I have just completed a new degree, a Psy D. (Doctorate). I am also thankful to have completed a second Master's Degree in Counseling, (4.0 GPA) and inducted to Chi Sigma Iota (National Honor Society). Professionalism within the educational community at UIC, working as a guidance counselor, a therapist, a teacher, and working with the business community has afforded me opportunities to gain much valuable experience in assisting people from all walks of life, while respecting the dignity of others. There is a story of a young man who was walking along a beach, picking up starfish and throwing them back into the ocean. A man approached the youth and inquired as to why he is throwing the starfish back into the ocean. The youth looked at the man, holding the starfish in his hand, and threw the starfish back into the ocean. The youth said to the man, "it makes a difference to this one." Each person is precious.
Helping students has been a passion of mine since high school. This is. because I had a couple of very passionate and enthusiastic teachers who taught me so much about life and the world and really helped to prepare me for the years after graduation. I have been an instructor and coach for many years from high school through university. I have a double bachelors degree in three different majors which are Anthropology, political science, and classics, as well as a Master's degree in Linguistics. During my studies I learned to speak Spanish and some Arabic and all of these subjects are areas I tutor in along with English and Essay writing. Also, I am applying to law school this fall to pursue a career in international human rights and immigration law and plan to teach university students in the legal field after a number of years of working in each of those areas of law. I am a firm believer in education being a means to not only make a person wiser or more intelligent but also more morally just, kind, caring and flexible in response to changes that a person may encounter in the future. My philosophy on teaching and learning is that a student can learn anything they want to so long as they put in the effort, but a knowledgable, empathetic, observant, dedicated and patient tutor will make the effort of that student much more efficient and that is what you will get with me as your tutor. Outside of Academics I am a passionate lover of nature and volunteer at the Bill Jarvis Bird sanctuary here in Lakeview Chicago as well as for the Kankakee Cultivators in Kankakee where most of my family lives. I also love hiking, camping, and biking and kayaking through nature with friends and love to swim and read books on all sorts of topics. Currently my favorite book is "A People's Future of the United States" which is a collection of short stories. If you are interested in learning and enjoy crushing your goals please feel free to reach-out to me.
There are two qualities that define me as a person and as a teacher. The first quality is my love of learning. From the time I have been able to speak I have always asked questions about the beautiful and amazing world that we live in. Throughout middle school and high school I would question teachers, not to annoy, but because I had such a passion and curiosity for learning. This rigorous academic pursuit led me to BioEngineering for which I am currently pursuing an undergraduate degree at the University of Illinois at Chicago. BioEngineering requires background in Math, Biology, Chemistry, and Physics, which is a very broad range of topics that I needed to master in order to succeed at my degree. It also requires creativity and curiosity to succeed in engineering. Although I have learned many things I continue to learn about the unknown because I am also part of a research team at UIC that studies traumatic brain injury and Alzheimer's Disease. All of these experiences show that I have a passion for learning about a broad variety of topics, and I continue to push the boundaries of my knowledge everyday. I will pass my love for learning to the best of my ability to the best of my ability. So not only will the student learn the material, they will learn how to learn, and they will love to learnThe second quality is my ability to adapt to any situation given to me. I have had the pleasure of being part of a relief trips to India, and leading two medical relief trips to Ecuador and Peru. During these trips, things can change in a blink of an eye and one must adapt in order to help the people in need. These skills can be translated to tutoring as well. Many styles of teaching wont work for some students. Since I have the ability to adapt, I can change my teaching style in the blink of an eye to assimilate to what the student needs and wants.
Graduated (James Scholar Honors) from the University of Illinois in Engineering Physics and have a Masters in Physics from the same institution. Retiring from industry 2008 I began teaching part-time at the local community college and have been doing so ever since, teaching passionately physics and math. My aim is to give students a good understanding and appreciation of a subject whether a course is in their career field or an elective. During my career in industry, I had become interested in display monitor technology for education and worked leading to development of high-definition display screens. I hold 22 issued patents and many peer reviewed publications. We formed a small company which has produced display products for over 30 years and did joint Research and Development internationally.
I am currently a graduate student at the University of Chicago. I have been tutoring for over four years, with hundreds of hours of experience in various subjects. The reason I love being a tutor the most is because I can relate with my students. I myself once had to go through the same learning process for each subject that my students now face as well, and so I know what that feels like, and love to help guide others through it. Likewise, I truly understand where those confusions often lie, and--most importantly--how to best overcome those obstacles to reach the a proper understanding of the material at hand.A little bit more about me! I'm an avid reader of a plethora of genres, and my other hobbies include baking, playing tennis, writing poetry, and watching Star Trek reruns. I'm also involved in various cultural and human rights organizations at college. In any remaining spare time, I can usually be found reading the news on actual physical newspapers.Regarding my tutoring philosophy: as a tutor, I believe that the most important way to help my students understand their material better is by simply being there for them every step of the way. This way, students can feel comfortable making and consequently recognizing their common mistakes, which we can then work on to eventually fully grasp the material. I recognize that each person is unique and learns differently, and so I always try various learning methods to find the best technique for an individual's specific learning style that allows them to succeed the most.
I am a passionate problem solver and constant learner excited to help create connections, and convey concepts to those in need. I enjoy working with people to make measurable positive changes in their assessments.
