I have a PhD in special education and am a Board Certified Behavior Analyst with experience across home, clinic, and school-based settings. I began my career as a special education teacher, working directly with students with significant support needs and collaborating closely with families and multidisciplinary teams, which continues to shape my approach to teaching, supervision, and consultation. My expertise is supporting individuals with high support needs through applied behavior analysis, with a strong focus on meaningful communication, functional skills, and inclusive, socially valid practices. I have provided direct services and consultation in home and clinic environments and partnered with schools to design, implement, and evaluate behavior-analytic supports that are practical and sustainable in real-world settings. I am especially passionate about educating and mentoring future practitioners and enjoy breaking down complex ABA and special education concepts, connecting theory to practice, and supporting students as they build confidence and clinical competence.

I received a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology from Belmont Abbey College in 2014. Recently, I received my Master of Science degree in Biology from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. Throughout this time, I was able to gain invaluable experience engaging students one on one and in a classroom setting. For two years, I worked as a lab instructor at UNC-Charlotte where I taught labs for genetics and general biology. I quickly found that teaching, and particularly working with students one on one, is a passion of mine. Whether the student is advanced in the subject or is heavily struggling with the basics, I greatly enjoy working individually with them to guide them towards improved academic performance. I fully believe that no two students are exactly alike and therefore my teaching approaches can not be exactly alike for every student. This philosophy of being flexible in my methods of engaging students enables me to get the most from every student. I am very passionate about teaching many areas of the biological sciences including cell biology, physiology, immunology, microbiology, and molecular biology. Outside of academics I enjoy going to the gym, hiking, and supporting my favorite sports teams.

I have a BS in Biology and a Masters in Epidemiology, which I obtained through UNC-Charlotte a and Chapel Hill respectively. I have tutored and trained middle and high school students in science and algebraic concepts. I have also setup internship opportunities and training programs for entry level employees who were in college or recently graduated.My area of expertise is in Microbiology, and I approach this discipline when tutoring from the basis of making correlations so that the student is able to engage in meaningful dialogue. A lot of learning and understanding within the science community comes from being able to discuss concepts and techniques and forming relations with organizational goals.In my personal life I am a proud father who wants to see a generation of students, along with my child, achieve their dreams.

My education includes a B.S. in Geo-Enviromental Studies from UNC Pembroke and a M.A. in Geography from UNC Charlotte. A biology minor was pursued during my time at UNC Pembroke. My experience working with students covers around 2.5 years, and was relative to physical geography(specifically labs). The courses/subject matter I tutor include AP Human Geography, AP Enviromental Science, and College level Geography courses amongst others. I particularly enjoy teaching geography and enviromental science topics somewhat equally, with a slight prefference toward geography. My teaching philosophy/aproach is relative to approaching the situation with regard to why the student is taking the class in the first place, then using a variety of techniques, particularly things I found helpful in the past. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy Dungeon & Dragons and reading manga amongst other nerdy hobbies. Hope I may be the right tutor for your academic needs.

Hello! My name is Gabe Davis and I have a passion for helping students with writing and reading comprehension. I have been teaching in a public school for 14+ years, and I enjoy helping students improve their writing and critical thinking skills.

I was born in Colombia and moved to the United States at a young age where I grew up in a Spanish-speaking household. I attended Spanish classes every Saturday to master my grammar, orthography, and pronunciation. By the time I got to high school, I had learned virtually all I could, so I took four semesters of French instead.I graduated Magna Cum Laude from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte with University Honors, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in French, German, and International Studies. As an undergraduate student, I spent two semesters abroad-- one in Lyon, France and one in Berlin, Germany, where I developed my language competencies.Upon return, I was accepted into an Early Entry graduate program, which I completed in Translating in Spanish, French, and German.During my graduate studies, I was recruited as a bilingual data consultant for Wells Fargo, where I contribute Spanish translation, guidance, and quality control to develop artificial intelligence through natural language processing.On the side, I also work as a Spanish interpreter for two regional language service agencies, facilitating communication between Spanish speakers and medical providers, community staff, and law enforcement officials to ensure mutual understanding, cultural sensitivity, and confidentiality.You'll notice the subjects I tutor are primarily foreign language related, since those are my areas of expertise in terms of education, experience, and passion.Prior to joining Varsity Tutors, I tutored children ages 3-5 to develop basic French vocabulary and sentence structure.I believe all students have natural gifts and aptitudes as well as curiosity. As a tutor, I feel it is my duty to help them identify their natural talents and nurture their love of learning, so that they learn the joy of it instead of viewing it as a chore.In my spare time, I enjoy a variety of leisure activities, like reading, playing sports, and traveling.

I am working towards my Bachelor of Science in Chemistry at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. Since high school, I have been tutoring grades 1-3. Also, I loved to volunteer at my school's peer tutoring program because I liked helping my peers succeed with me. Right now, I am working with Black Child Development Institute to help third graders read on the national third grade reading level.Also, my favorite subjects to tutor are biology, chemistry, algebra, and geometry. I think education is very important because it keeps us informed about the different evolving fields around us, which prepares us for the limitless future.

Ever since middle school, math has always given me joy. The endless challenges and patterns one has to manipulate in this subject allows me to think outside the box while finding multiple ways of reaching my goal of solving the problem. I plan to pursue a career that allows me to continue to use and enhance my math skills as well as assist others in doing the same. Aside from math my other area of interest is art. I have always had a passion for art and I wish to not only display my work for others to admire but to appreciate the work that other artists provide.

I graduated from the University of North Carolina Wilmington with a degree in mathematics and am current pursuing a masters degree in secondary education at the University of North Carolina Charlotte. Teaching is my true passion. Before I became a teacher I was a private tutor in Wilmington, NC. I was also a tutor for UNCW athletics. I have 3 years of experience tutoring a wide array of math topics such as algebra, calculus, and geometry. In addition to that, I have three years of teaching experience in all high school math topics including AP calculus AB. Working with people and math are two of my favorite things and I am truly passionate about what I do!

I enjoy helping students understand new material. I have worked with students of a variety of backgrounds, from college freshman to nontraditional students returning to college. I earned an Associates in Science from Mitchell Community College and a Bachelors of Computer Science from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. During my education, I tutored students through Mitchell's in house tutoring service. I tutor math from basic addition and subtraction to Calculus 2, and algebra and calculus based physics. Algebra and calculus are my favorite subjects to help students with. Every person learns differently, so I adapt my teaching style to the student. Written problems versus verbal working out the problem, both work. Outside of schooling, I enjoy playing large multiplayer games; creating programs that either solve a problem or just for fun; sewing, crocheting, and several other crafting hobbies; cooking; and playing with my 2 cats.

All students deserve to be respected as the child they are, regardless of their learning level or abilities. Every bud blossoms when it's their time.

Hello! I am a currently a junior at UNC Charlotte. I am majoring in public health and I have a double minor in chemistry and communication studies. I currently tutor for the University Center for Academic Excellence at UNCC, so I haveexperience tutoring both online and in person! At Charlotte, I specifically tutor general chemistry courses. I want to be my tutees best resource when it comes to chemistry and I always ensure that I am offering the best support that I can. I have a very active tutoring style and I believe that in chemistry, practice makes perfect. I will practice with a tutee until they can explain problems to me! I love tutoring and would love to help in any way I can!

My teaching philosophy is centered on patience, encouragement, and adapting to each student's learning style. I believe students learn best when they feel comfortable asking questions and making mistakes. As a tutor, I focus on building confidence while breaking down complex concepts into manageable steps. I strive to create an engaging and supportive environment where students actively participate in the learning process rather than simply memorizing information.

Working with students is something that is truly so rewarding to me. I look forward to doing it for a career, but until then, I am eager to get every chance I can to work with students as much as possible! I am a junior student at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte in the college of education working towards my B.A. in Elementary Education (K-6). I have gained an incredible amount of experience working with elementary students while studying in this program as weekly I visit elementary schools and work closely with a mentor teacher as well as the students. My tutoring experience comes from being in school as well, as the college of education partnered with HEART tutoring, which allowed me to tutor a second and fourth grader in math once a week this past semester. With that being said, I have more experience tutoring elementary math, however I have completed K-2 coursework for reading/writing as well. Math is probably my favorite subject to tutor just because I love to hear students explain their reasoning when solving a problem and seeing them reach the correct solution is pure joy. Outside of academia, I love to read, workout, paint, and play with my cat (his name is Dash)!

That moment is the one that I have lived to see over and over again. When I see that moment in the face or eyes of my student, I know my job in nearly completed.I have taught many different course over my career along with some ELA, and business courses as well as physical education. My main course of studies was the discipline of social studies, including but not limited to United States History or American History, World History, Civics and Economics or Government, World Geography, and African American Studies. My focus is on helping students understand American government and American history. I try to tie in specific contribution of the many different communities and cultures that have made up the United States to help make clear the many contributions that went into making the country what it is today.My teaching philosophy is to start in a lecture format to set up the background of the lesson and then expand to a conversation where all parties can contribute to the discussion as we learn how and why situations and concepts evolved as they did. I will present information and ask for feedback to what we are learning and why it matters. As we get further along, I will ask students to help present the lesson as to bring about ownership of the subject so can all learn together.

My philosophy around teaching is to provide patience, clarity, and build confidence in students. I enjoy breaking down complex ideas into simple steps and incorporating examples that encourage deeper understanding and critical thinking. While I am early in my formal teaching experience, my academic background has helped me develop strong problem-solving skills, adaptability to different learning styles, and the ability to communicate effectively through collaboration. My goal is to help students

As a member of the Varsity Tutors community, my goal is to make every session safe, enlightening and fun! I earned my Bachelor's degree in English with a concentration in Creative Writing from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. Throughout my college career, I assisted classmates that were struggling with their English courses and helped several of them turn failing grades into A's. My favorite subject to teach is English because of its versatility. Mastering the art of writing, along with the art of speaking, can help one in so many ways; and I want to bring that power to my clients.

I have recently completed my 25th year in education, with experience in teaching and intervention from kindergarten to grade 6 in addition to graduate study in curriculum design and educational leadership. After exploring different opportunities, including administration, curriculum design, and curriculum coaching, I have rediscovered my love for teaching and interaction with students. I struggled with mathematics as a student because I am an analytical thinker and it was not until I learned how to teach mathematics developmentally that I understood where my teachers had failed me. I made it my personal mission to never miss an opportunity to help a student connect to mathematical knowledge in a meaningful way and to develop multiple paths to understanding so that each one of my students will have the opportunity to interact with content in a way that makes sense to them. I have a passion for fostering developmental thinking in mathematics and believe that the way to excellence is building a strong foundation in number sense and multiple paths to knowledge. The way to understand mathematics is to do mathematics, breaking through the barriers of what a student thinks they should know and drilling down to find the obstacles that are holding them back from true understanding.
