Award-Winning Tutors from University of Miami

I graduated from the University of Miami with a BS in Physics. While in high school, I attended math competitions across the country including one at Princeton University and another at New York University. My love for mathematics eventually led to virtual tutoring through Florida Virtual School where I tutored over 150 hours in Pre-Calculus, Algebra I, Algebra II, Geometry, and Chemistry. I love to teach because it lets me share my enthusiasm for mathematics and science with other students and helps me get a deeper understanding of material that is useful for my higher level mathematics and physics courses. As a tutor, I break down complicated problems into manageable concepts so students can gain confidence in solving these problems on their own.

I am a graduate of Miami University. I received my Bachelor of Science in Business Management with a focus on Organizational Behavior. Since graduation, I have lived in Colorado, Ohio, and now currently live outside Washington, DC. I spent over 20 years in the IT business as a programmer, project manager, software architect, and client relationship manager. After retiring from corporate life I have spent my days doing things I love to do - providing assistance and mentoring to children, adolescents, and young adults. I have taught English and Computer Applications at the middle school level and Life Skills for autistic kids. In addition to teaching in the public school system, I do private one-on-one behavior therapy with autistic children. I am a firm proponent of taking a steady and affiliative approach to education, believing it to be the most effective way of improving the quality of learning and life.

I then attended a Biomedical Sciences graduate program in California and gained a great deal of laboratory and mentoring experience before moving back east. Since moving home to Philadelphia, I have taken the Praxis Core exams (scoring perfectly on the Math) and am in the process of obtaining my PA teaching certification in secondary education (7-12) biology.

Nothing makes me happier than tutoring high school students in subjects that I love. I graduated from a very competitive high school and I completely understand the rigorous nature of AP courses and the pressure to get a top notch SAT score. With a 2370 SAT score and a 4.0 throughout college and high school, I think I am definitely qualified to tutor. However, more than being qualified, what I've always hoped to achieve as a tutor is to develop the ability in my tutees to become strong independent learners with effective study strategies that they can take with them wherever they go. My motto is "Study Smarter, not just Harder!"

I have a J.D. and B.A. in history, international studies, and political science. I am fluent in English, Spanish, and Portuguese. I have basic proficiency in Hindi.

My core philosophy is to teach students how to approach questions or material they are struggling with in a manner that can be applied across the subject. Outside of tutoring I am an avid cyclist, triathlete, and runner. I look forward to helping you reach your goal.

My name is Tyler Busby and I'm from Las Vegas, NV. I am currently a junior at the University of Miami majoring in Industrial Engineering with a double minor in Mathematics and Economics. My hobbies include laying by the pool and listening to new music.

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 graduate of the University of Miami with a B.S. in Geoscience and a B.A. in Biology. I have been a an independent lab TA for Mineralogy (advanced Geoscience) and Introduction to Physical Geology and love all things science, writing, and literature! I have taken and done exceptionally well in subjects such as the SAT, AP Biology, AP English, AP World History, and the GRE. Through my years of teaching, I have learned that students have different goals, abilities, learning styles, and personalities. Tailoring my tutoring style for an individual learner with a unique set of qualities is what I aim for in order to see them achieve their very best.

I am a freshman at the University of Miami, majoring in Microbiology and Immunology on the pre-med track. I have been tutoring for three years now in a broad range of subjects. My favorite subjects to tutor, though, are biology and math. Tutoring is very rewarding to me because it is a way I can help increase a child's confidence and belief in their own abilities. One important part I incorporate into my teaching is discussion, which, I believe, encourages a student to explore the inner workings of any concept. This allows them to adapt their thinking to new contexts and all sorts of problems as well. Outside of school, I love to sing and read fantasy books.

I received my Bachelor of Science in Biomedical Engineering at the University of Miami. Then I got my Master of Engineering in Biomedical Engineering at the University of Florida. Currently I am working on a second master's degree, in Electrical Engineering.During my undergraduate studies at the University of Miami I worked as a part time peer tutor, meaning I tutored other undergraduate students in classes I had already taken. I primarily tutored for classes related to mathematics and physics as those were the subjects I enjoyed and felt confident teaching. During my time as a graduate student at the University of Florida, I was a Teacher's Assistant for two semesters where I helped undergraduate students with circuit design and building. From these experiences I realized that I enjoyed teaching. It is satisfying to see students light up when they understand a concept that was previously confusing. In my free time, I enjoy watching movies, motorcycle riding, running, ice skating, and going out with my friends.

I believe individuals should be supported in a way that is unique to them. I've been tutoring for 4 years, and will offer support in the beginning or end of a problem if needed.

Hello! My name is Sara, and I am a passionate and positive person who loves helping others learn and grow. With a background in sociology, psychology, and public policy, I bring a unique perspective to my tutoring sessions. I have extensive experience working with diverse groups and have an understanding of different learning styles and needs. As a multilingual individual, I can offer tutoring in multiple languages, making it easier for students to grasp concepts in their native language. My goal is to create a supportive and encouraging environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and exploring new ideas. Whether you're looking to improve your grades, prepare for exams, or develop new skills, I'm here to help you succeed. Let's work together to achieve your academic goals with confidence and positivity!

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!

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 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 looking forward to being your tutor! I am a strong believer in helping and teaching others in any way that I can, and at the same time making the world a better place. My mission is to help you succeed and achieve your goals one session at a time.

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.

After thirty years as an educator, most of my adult life has been focused on the science and art of teaching with the heartfelt desire to improve the academic condition of all my students. I am a graduate of both Miami University (Oxford, Ohio) and Florida Atlantic University (Boca Raton, Florida).

I have had a great deal of experience working with students who were trying to improve their reading and writing scores on the Florida State Assessment Test. My educational philosophy encompasses three areas of importance: Critical Reading, Critical Writing, and Critical Thinking skills. I passionately believe that all three are necessary for educational success, and I gain immense satisfaction helping students achieve competency in these three important areas of education. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, writing (I have two books in the global marketplace) and playing my guitar as a professional musician.

I am a graduate of The University of Miami. I received my Bachelor of Science in Health Science with a focus on chemistry, psychology, and public health. Since graduation, I have worked in a clinical setting helping physicians and patients, while also tutoring students on various subjects. I am passionate about healthcare and helping others, so I have been preparing to apply to medical schools while continuing my work with educating students who need the extra support. I enjoy teaching the sciences and mathematics, learning how to take the struggle out of these subjects. Moving from Egypt when I was younger, I did not have the capacity to seek help from tutors, so now I strive to lessen that barrier for other students by offering my knowledge. I believe education is an important tool in life, and everyone deserves to have the resources they need to succeed.

I am currently a graduate student at Columbia University pursuing my Masters in Public Administration. For the past three years, I have worked at education focused non-profit organizations.

I am a 2002 graduate of the University of Miami with degrees in history and economics. Subsequently, I reeived my JD from the University of Florida. I have been tutoring since 2013 and have helped students get accepted at top-tier colleges and graduate programs across the United States. I pride myself on helping people of all ability levels improve and gain confidence.

Tutoring is more than just helping someone with their homework. It is using one's ability and intellect to benefit others, thereby using talents to improve others. I have always admired tutors as being these altruistic individuals who are using endowed gifts to make a difference in another person's life. Like a doctor in the medical field, you are providing a service that will improve their life and are dependent on you for their betterment. Tutoring's striking resemblance to medicine ultimately contributes to my desire and enjoyment of being a tutor, for having a positive impact on someone as much as possible is a daily goal of mine.

I am an aspiring teacher currently pursuing graduate studies in education. There is nothing I enjoy more than discovering fun and creative ways to teach and learn. I can't wait to get started with you or your student and dive right in! My background in music and the arts helps me find novel ways of approaching various academic disciplines and has defined my core belief on education: well-rounded students and teachers must expose themselves to as many perspectives and disciplines as possible. When learning with me, you or your student can expect to engage with not only traditional discipline-specific texts, but also film, art, music and other relevant cultural mediums in order to form a holistic educational journey.

I have decades of experience both in academe as well as in the financial services field, and have helped thousands of adults reach their academic and professional licensing goals.

I graduated in May 2020 from the University of Miami in Coral Gables, FL. I obtained my bachelors degree in Chemistry with a minor in Spanish in just 3 years due to my advanced track. Given that chemistry was my major, I frequently tutored my other pre-med classmates in their chemistry coursework. My final year I acted as a TA for the biology class I had taken my freshman year. Although I love alone time for my own hobbies, I value getting to know people on a personal level. For this reason my teaching approach is based highly on the individual I am working with. I like to get know my students style of learning and try to make it more meaningful through a personal connection. I believe less in memorization and more in creating foundations of knowledge that one can continue to build upon and rely on in moments of doubt. As your tutor, I would always be open to constructive criticism with the goal of creating the most comfortable and productive learning environment for you. This way, the learning never stops in either of us.
