Award-Winning Tutors from University of Miami

I believe that each and every person is capable of mastering any subject with the right guidance. A good tutor not only teaches students what they need to know for their classes, but she also teaches students how to think critically so that her students can effectively tackle questions in any subject area.

I am looking to help you with your math and physics questions. I am a graduate student studying hurricane physics and enjoy using my deep understanding of material to help others. Hope to meet you soon!

I am pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Physics - Pure, and a Minor in Mathematics at the University of Miami. Mathematics and Physics are both subjects where tutoring is very beneficial, from talking out the conceptual understandings to guidance on how to approach and tackle a problem. At a young age these courses intimidated me, but through the help of tutors and professors I conquered my classes and passionately continued to higher levels of academia. I strive to have this same effect on my students, allowing them to feel confident of their knowledge and prepared to take on the next subject.

I like helping students. I am very patient. I have experience teaching Calculus classes at the University of Miami. I have done private tutoring for all levels of math up to Calculus, as well as Statistics, Business Math, and Math Finance. I have worked in the actuarial field. I have an undergraduate degree in mathematics from Michigan State University and a Master's degree in mathematics from the University of Miami. I worked for The Princeton Review as a tutor for the SAT. I did very well on both the SAT and ACT, and like teaching students how to do better on those. I like history, too, and always find it fun to tutor history.

My personal philosophy is grounded in the belief that all people deserve innovative, evidence-based, culturally inclusive care, and focuses on their desired quality of life. This kind of care addresses one's entire being and requires dynamic, interdisciplinary work that reflects a thoughtfully shared decision-making model and supports the individual, their loved ones, and the communities that they are a part of. I approach teaching with the exact same attitude. As a healthcare professional, my objective is to help nursing "professionals-in-training" become dynamic and transformational critical thinkers. My methodology in achieving this stems from the belief that nursing is truly both an art and a science and requires honing knowledge, experience, and skill. This is done through the assessment of students' strengths with the same focus that is applied to their weaknesses. Then, I use a multi-faceted approach to promote active learning.I want those I tutor in nursing to feel comfortable asking questions and identifying ways that best help them actively learn, understand, and retain concepts that make them safely and efficiently actionable when at the bedside. Career-wise, I have been an LPN since 2011, an RN since 2015, and an NP since 2021. My career has spanned largely adult critical care, hospice, and long-term geriatric care. Most recently, I graduated from the University of Miami with my MSN and am a board-certified AGACNP by the ANCC. Additionally, I completed a 1-year post-graduate training program in Adult Critical Care at the Medical College of Wisconsin. Completing my training made me understand that nursing education is where my passions lie. On a personal note, I enjoy reading, animated short films, hiking, traveling domestically and internationally, antiques-shopping, and cooking and eating great Asian food.

I currently attend the University of Miami as a pre-medical student and am on course to obtain a BS in biology as well as a BS in marine science. In addition to my majors, my minors include chemistry and finance. Throughout my high school career, I tutored middle and elementary school students in a variety of subjects. I also have experience tutoring students with learning disabilities. I've taught ESL to medical doctors in Spain, and I've worked as a Teaching Assistant in a leadership course that focused on public speaking. My favorite subjects to tutor include biological and related sciences, as well as Spanish and English. My tutoring style is to get students excited about learning, as I believe that students with a positive attitude and willingness to learn are the most successful. Outside of tutoring and academia, my interests include traveling and shadowing physicians.

Hello! My name is Noah Damiani, and I want to take this opportunity to share a little about myself to give you a better idea of my passions, interests, and work ethic. I am currently finishing the last course of my undergraduate career at the University of Miami, and I plan to graduate with my degree in business economics next semester. I have been accepted to the University of Miami School of Law as I plan to pursue my juris doctorate over the next few years.Throughout my undergraduate and professional career, I have become extremely acquainted with business, namely accounting. I am currently working full-time as an accounting manager at a medical consulting distribution company. I am also quite strong in Mathematics and have expertise in Applied Mathematics (linear regressions), Arithmetic, Algebra, Geometry, and Analytical number theory (Pre-Calculus and Calculus). I also have a broad background in the natural sciences, including biology. There are a number of other courses that I have expertise in which I would love to share with you if given the opportunity.I have approximately 3 years of tutoring experience. I was apart of a mentorship program in high school in which I was tasked with assisting students who struggled with their curriculum. I have also tutored acquaintances throughout college over the years. I am impassioned in my belief that the institution of education serves a vital role not only in advancing society, but also in the ability to better one's future. That is the main reason that I have taken an appreciation for tutoring. I, myself, have greatly benefitted from getting tutored. And I feel obligated to pass on my knowledge if given the opportunity to do so.My tutoring style is one of structure and practice. While it will depend on the subject being taught, a general tutor session would consist of reviewing short practice problems assigned to students in a previous session to figure out where their weaknesses are and to address them. I would then move onto the next lesson, keeping pace with their school curriculum or whatever study schedule they are on for a standardized exam. I will provide supplementary materials such as practice problems and notes for students to refresh upon later on. I view tutoring as an extension of the classroom, so I plan to teach the material in a way that incorporates similar strategies to those taught in school. In order to ensure students are motivated in reaching their goals of academic success, I always encourage them for their progress. I will never fault or blame a student for their lack of understanding, but I would instead try to figure out where the source of confusion is coming from.Outside of tutoring, work, and school, I am usually taking my dog on walks or going to the beach. Though I like to keep myself busy with my academic and professional life, I still enjoy trying new things and going new places.It is my hope that you were able to get a good idea of who I am, my expertise, and my strategies for tutoring. Thank you for taking the time to read through my statement, and I look forward to working with you!

I am a senior at the University of Miami with a double major in Biochemistry and Economics. I have a passion for dance and I am very friendly and look forward to working with you! I have over four years experience with tutoring, and this experience allowed me to work closely with children of all ages on various assignments. I was able to offer my assistance and teach effectively and efficiently without simply giving the correct answer. The key to tutoring is to reinforce material in a way that the student is led to solving the problem on his or her own rather than being told what the correct answer is.

Every moment I teach music I strive to be sharing something much larger - the love of life. What students learn with me will include the nuts and bolts of music making, but the way we learn, the habits we develop, and our pursuit of human expression will overflow into every aspect of life. My goal is that every student walks away with a deep passion for living life beautifully. My experiences have been extremely diverse! Ranging from folk and bluegrass performance to Concerto Competitions and everything in between. While my primary instrument is saxophone, I play many instruments and love arranging music as well. My passion for music is something that gives me a spark in my spirit everyday. I seek to share that joy with students to inspire them to find what makes them passionate in life. I measure my success through knowing that students who leave are full of passion to be beautiful people.

As a dedicated educator with a Doctorate in Economics from the University of Miami, I have over 10 years of experience teaching and tutoring various subjects, including Financial Accounting, Corporate Finance, and Macroeconomics. My teaching philosophy centers on making complex concepts relatable and engaging, tailoring my approach to each student's unique needs. I believe that effective learning occurs when students see the real-world applications of the material, which I emphasize through practical examples and interactive discussions. My passion for economics drives my commitment to student success, and I take pride in my ability to connect with diverse learners, from high school students to non-traditional adult learners. In addition to my teaching experience, I enjoy exploring economic principles in the context of everyday life, which enriches my tutoring sessions and fosters a supportive learning environment.

I am a teacher with a passion for educating the next generation in the biological sciences. I have extensive experience in both biology and education, and want to use those experiences to present fundamental and applicable knowledge to my students. My eight years of teaching experience combined with my eleven years of biology research experience in both field and laboratory settings uniquely qualify me with the ability to present a greater depth and breadth of knowledge. My career goal is to continue to develop my personal understanding in the biological sciences and enable my students to think critically on their own.

Hello my name is Viraj Shah and I'm a 2nd year medical student at the University of Miami.

I am a graduate of The Spence School in New York City. I am a rising junior at The University of Miami, majoring in Computer Science with a minor in Mathematics. I have not formally tutored before, but I have extensive experience working with children, as well as helping my peers at school. I am looking forward to tutoring a wide variety of subjects in the fields of Mathematics and Economics. The subjects I feel most comfortable tutoring currently are calculus and statistics. I would describe my teaching style as interactive and collaborative. In my free time, I enjoy cooking, working out, and spending time with family. I am also currently studying to become a certified personal trainer.

I am a University of Miami alumna, and graduated summa cum laude in 2012 with a B.A. in English Literature and a minor in History. During my time at the University of Miami, I worked as a tutor for the University’s Athletic Academic Services, where I tutored student athletes in a variety of subjects, and helped them devise study schedules that maximized their academic success. Since then, I have worked as a full-time tutor in a Massachusetts high school, where I provided focused Math instruction to a personal caseload of 12 ninth and tenth graders, and also as a Spanish language tutor for adults and college-aged students in Miami. Many of the students I have worked with are English language learners, and I am comfortable tutoring in both English and Spanish.While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I most enjoy tutoring Literature, Composition and language. I am an enthusiastic reader myself, and also enjoy trying out new DIY projects and going on meandering bike rides in my spare time.

I believe education is a dynamic relationship where both the student and teacher learn valuable skills. The students learn applicable skills and strategies while the teachers learn how to better educate students based on each student's personality. My experiences range from teaching college football players mathematics and writing, to teaching first graders how to read full sentences in children's books. My wide range of experience with varying age groups makes me a perfect tutor for any age group. I specialize in accommodating students based on their learning style and teaching them in the way they learn best. This helps the student be as successful as possible and helps me become a better teacher for every student.

I am a hard working systems professional that has never outgrown my love for math or for coaching others.As a student, I earned a BS in Mathematics/Psychology from Manhattan College with a minor in Computer Science. At that time I coached students in calculus and advanced mathematics. At this time, I also coached high school students in algebra and trigonometry.As a professional, I have trained and mentored hundreds of individuals throughout my career. I have both designed systems, created training material and traveled in both the US and Europe to train my co-workers. In addition, I have worked as on-line instructor for University of Phoenix, teach programming and Computer Information Systems. I coach basketball, baseball and soccer for my child's local sports teams.My most important job is that of a father to my 12 year old son. I have worked with him over the years, and I am proud to say that he is sharing in my love of math as a student in the Math Program at the local Middle School.My favorite word when coaching is the word 'Yet'. Of course students may not be good at math...yet. And of course, a student may not know an answer to a math problem...yet. But with a little work, focus and motivation, WE can make it that understanding math is a great experience.

I am a current student at the University of Miami and I have learned the benefits of learning in any subject. I started tutoring at a Community Center and realized it was my passion to assist others in the learning field. My mission is to teach others the proper way to solve problems and questions using critical thinking skills that will resonate to the point where the tutee will be able to apply these skills to problems in real life.

As a recent high school graduate, I understand what it is like to juggle extracurriculars, AP classes, and college applications. I have sat through mundane test prep classes only to realize that I had not truly grasped the material and did not feel confident in my abilities to do well. I believe the key to excelling in a subject is to develop an interest in it along with learning the material, and this is what I hope I accomplish as a tutor for my students. I work with my students in a stress-free zone and encourage questions and discussion rather than lectures. In addition to studying engineering at the University of Miami, I have years of experience learning Russian as a native speaker. During high school I was a competitive ballroom dancer and continue to train in college.

I am a retired teacher, linguist - I speak 3 languages (English, Portuguese, and Spanish), wife, and mom of 5 amazing children. I was born and raised in the USA, spending most of my life in sunny south Florida, our family decided to move to Louisiana last year and we love it here.

Hey! My name's Joe. I'm 19, I grew up in Montclair, NJ, but I am at school studying Music Engineering Technology at the University of Miami. I love to learn, and am a naturally curious person. I can't wait to teach!

I am an 8th Grade US History teacher who is passionate about working with students regardless of where they're at. I've taught middle school for two full years, but I'm certified in both Illinois and Florida for Social Science from grades 6-12. My philosophy is that history isn't about memorizing dates, but about connecting the dots. I strive to help students build connections between the world they know and the world of the past-- there's more in common than you think!

I am currently a student at the University of Miami, studying to get my Bachelor of Science in Biomedical Engineering, with an Electrical Concentration. I have always been mathematically inclined, scoring very highly in all standardized tests in the math and science portions. It is this knowledge and understanding that makes me a great choice to help students learn and understand anything mathematically related.

If you had asked me in middle school what my favorite subject in school was, I'd have told you, "History!" and that was closely followed by English. I've always loved the power of storytelling to help us to learn about the past, the present, and perhaps most importantly, ourselves. It came as no surprise to my family and friends that I chose to major in history in college. As an undergraduate, I attended Ohio State University and completed my degree at Otterbein College, a small liberal arts school in Columbus, Ohio. Not content to simply read about history and the great works of literature, I pursued my M.A. and Ph.D in American history at the University of Miami in Coral Gables, Florida, where I learned to create my own stories about the past.Now that I have completed my Ph.D., I finally get to focus my attention on sharing my passion for storytelling with others. I like to work with students of all ages. I have taught courses at the college level, and I've worked with high school students as well. I have two younger brothers in middle school, so I feel especially attuned to the psyche of that age group. In order to finish my degree in history, I wrote a 400 page dissertation and completed a field of study in English. Through this experience and my classroom teaching, I am well versed in the English language and can help you or your children not only to learn history, but also how to improve their reading and writing. If like me, your aim is to attend graduate school, I can also help you to prepare for the GRE verbal. I took the GRE twice and raised my score dramatically the second time through a combination of hard work and learning smart test taking strategies. I'd love to share that knowledge with others.While I'm certainly an expert in my field, I'm very friendly and down-to-earth. In my free time, I enjoy binge watching Netflix, cooking, shopping, hiking, watching Buckeye football, exercising, and playing soccer and tennis. In their evaluations of my teaching, students consistently commented that I was "nice," approachable, understanding, and communicated information clearly. Whether you struggle to learn the subject material, to get organized with your assignments or even just motivated to complete them, I am here to help and to boost your confidence in the process!

As a dedicated tutor, I'm passionate about helping students unlock their full potential. I focus on creating a supportive, engaging environment tailored to each student's learning style. With a strong background in math, science, english, and history, I aim to build both knowledge and confidence, guiding students to reach their academic goals. I believe in fostering critical thinking and encouraging curiosity, ensuring long-term success beyond just passing exams. My approach is patient, adaptable, and driven by a genuine commitment to seeing my students excel.

I am a recent University of Miami pre-medical graduate with a B.S. in psychology and a minor in chemistry. I tutor a wide variety of science topics, including chemistry, physics, biology, biochemistry, and psychology. I also tutor pre-algebra and algebra. Since middle school, I have tried many study strategies and incorporated them into my own which has helped me succeed throughout my academic career. I want to share everything I have learned about effective studying with my students so they can succeed in their academics.I have tutored students at the middle school, high school, and college levels in the sciences. In my senior year of college, I worked as a biology workshop leader which involved teaching and reviewing various biological concepts to groups of students.In the future, I want to become a doctor, scientific researcher, and a medical school professor.

My favorite subject, mathematics, has a variety of applications in how we live our lives. But most importantly, it reminds me of our their is always more than one way to find the solution to a problem. I hope to get students engaged in the subject we discuss and expand their understanding.

Hey guys I'm Nikhil from Orlando, FL. I'm currently a freshman attending the University of Miami. I wanna be a tutor mostly to make learning isn't a pain for anyone. By making the experience more engaging and possibly fun, then we start to make the most out of it. Hopefully we'll see each other soon!!

I am a second year PhD student focusing on Geology. Both my undergraduate and Master's degree are in Geology as well. I fortunately have experience teaching the introductory Geology course (both lab and lecture) and have taught an upper-level Sedimentology course.I understand every student is different and I strive to cater my tutoring style to the individual I am working with.

Test taking strategies, not a measure of intelligence but ability to apply AAMC topics. Given time and effort, anyone can score the right score to these exams. Also tough science

Just another friendly French, English, History, and writing tutor. I'm here to help you build confidence in your skills *and* get those grades up!I work well with all students, especially in making sure that they're comfortable asking me questions, and I'm also a huge fan of making the lessons productive *and* fun! Tutoring young intellects is my pride and joy!French: I am particularly adept at making students feel comfortable in engaging with foreign linguistic concepts. It's easy for students to get discouraged, trust me, I know from personal experience, which is why I am so keen on morale as much as I am on the actual academic rigor of tutoring French.English: English has been and always will be my passion and it truly shows when I'm tutoring. I love getting students excited about English assignments and learning and so far, I've been quite successful in that endeavor! I work well with all students, including those not particularly enthused by the subject.History: I am quite the history buff and I truly believe that if a student has the right tutor who knows how to bring history to life, anyone can and will enjoy it as much as they are learning from it. This is definitely one of my favorite subjects to tutor in.Writing: Writing is also a passion of mine. In fact, I love it so much I honed in on it in college. Since high school, I've been a writing center coach, and I truly enjoy helping students realize their potential and capacity to write really well in styles that suit their personalities. I'm also adept at assisting students with following stylistic guidelines, meaning APA or MLA format, for example. Writing is such a pleasure and joy to tutor, so I'm sure, regardless of my students' enthusiasm, I will be their cheerleader and make sure they're having fun while we learn together!Miscellaneous: I've occasionally dabbled in tutoring out of left field topics which are not necessarily my forte however, I'm more than capable and happy to do so for my students who really take to me. Such subjects range from creating financial statements on excel to basic theology coursework. In other words, I love tutoring, and chances are, I can tutor you, regardless of the subject, and if I don't feel qualified to tutor in it, I can direct you to other Varsity Tutors who can.

I'm a senior at the University of Miami studying Exercise Physiology with a pre-med focus.I first began tutoring in 2015 at the Academic Resource Center at UM.

I enjoy traveling, listening to music, watching my favorite TV shows, and spending time with friends and family.

I am extremely patient and will make sure the student I'm working with truly understands what we're working on. The great thing about tutoring one on one is being able to go at each student's pace and work with their unique learning styles. I'm personally very visual and need to draw a picture to figure out a problem. I enjoy learning about the student's interests and incorporating them into the lesson to make it more fun and interesting. I've been working in education for about 5 years. I taught preschool and 4th grade and have tutored ages 4 to 18. My favorite subject is Math, but I enjoy working with all subjects.

I'm a medical student at University of Miami and am glad to help you learn in a simple and easy to understand manner for science, math, and test prep!

I am a graduate of the University of Miami, where I majored in Psychology and English, with a focus in Creative Writing, and minored in Art. As a student, I was employed through America Reads. I worked individually with a kindergarten classroom of both special needs and neurotypical students, working with each child to develop a program that was both fun and effective in helping them overcome deficits. I tutor in English, literature, writing, math, and test prep at a variety of levels. I am most passionate about literature and writing as they are both hobbies I enjoy, but I also enjoy math because each problem feels like a puzzle to solve. I believe that learning should be engaging and fun, and was grateful to have many educators who helped me develop a strong educational background that has since provided me with many opportunities. I believe it is important to provide children and young adults with learning environments that emphasize the fun of learning, rather than portraying it as an inescapable chore. I try to provide an environment that encourages students to become active learners. In my free time, I enjoy reading all types of books, writing poetry and fiction, scuba diving, and hiking and slogging in the Everglades.
