Hey! I'm a Colby College alum with a double major in Computer Science and Psychology, currently studying Computer Science at Vanderbilt as an Engineering Graduate Fellow. My tutoring/teaching journey began when I realized that I have a genuine passion for breaking down complex concepts, making them easy and enjoyable to understand. I enjoy making learning personalized and engaging, particularly in subjects I love such as computer science and psychology. Having discovered my ADHD in college, I understand firsthand that the typical way of studying doesn't work for everyone. This personal insight drives my tutoring approach, emphasizing the need for personalized learning experiences. I firmly believe that teaching should be flexible and learning should resonate with the learner above all. To me, success as a tutor means adjusting my methods to best fit each student's learning style. Outside of teaching, I love playing soccer (played for my college team!), rock climbing, or rollerblading. And, of course, coding - it's not just my field of study, it's my hobby. I also have a dog and two cats who keep life interesting :)

I am currently a rising senior at Vanderbilt University majoring in Human and Organizational Development with a minor in Chinese. I chose a major and minor combination that focuses on international business because I grew up in Singapore and would love to eventually return back to Asia. Throughout my time living in Asia, I traveled extensively and had the opportunity to work with children in Thailand and Cambodia, and help inspire them to pursue an education. Based on my experiences abroad, I believe that education has the power to change an individual's life for the better.Throughout my time at Vanderbilt, I have worked as an ACT tutor. I have always been passionate about helping students gain confidence in standardized testing, and think it is important for students to have a mentor that has already been through the process. While test prep can be difficult, it is extremely rewarding to see students excel and reach their goal scores. In addition to standardized test prep, I also have extensive experience with essay writing and editing. Essay writing has always been a passion of mine and I look forward to helping students overcome any obstacles they may have with writing.

I have a passion for knowledge and academics. In high school, I finished rank 13 out of 1560 students in my class. I now attend Vanderbilt University, where I made the dean's list for the school of engineering during my freshman year. I strive to help others achieve the same success in their classes, no matter the age of the student or the level of their academic achievement.

I'm a recent graduate from Vanderbilt University, where I obtained my Masters of Education in Learning and Design, and a Bachelors degree from Southwestern University in Education and English.As a young student I found tutors to be immensely helpful in achieving success, so I know how important finding the right fit can be. I have experience tutoring, teaching, and mentoring students from ages 13 and up- though most of my recent experience is with college students.My favorite subjects to tutor are English and History, because I believe those are subjects where it's easy to help students find themselves within the subject matter. My teaching philosophy can be summed up as meeting students where they are at: to me, the key to student success lies in connection. Connection to instructors, to the content material, and to their own identities.

I am a freshmen at Vanderbilt University and graduated from Calabasas High School in June. At Vanderbilt, I am studying Human and Organizational Development and Public Policy. In high school, I tutored students in my school district in grades K-11 and worked consistently with some students for all four years. I also tutored with School on Wheels to provide academic support to students experiencing homelessness for two years. While I have tutored many subjects, I am most passionate about English, Math, and History. I enjoy writing and have had much success helping students improve their essay writing. I strongly believe in the value of education and always try to make learning enjoyable for my students. If I can find a topic that my student is very interested in, I have found that the learning comes a bit easier and can be appreciated more. In my free time, I enjoy hiking, spending time with friends and family, and cooking!

I am a current sophomore at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee. I am studying Human and Organizational Development, a major that teaches students how to identify and solve problems in organizations and communities. In the future, I am looking to get involved in the nonprofit sector of education and may pursue teaching after graduation. I've always enjoyed each individual's ability to grow through the learning process and I firmly believe that an education is the most valuable gift one can give the next generation.This semester, I am volunteering at an afterschool program where I am tutoring a middle school student in various subject areas.I am forever grateful to my personal ACT tutor for helping me get into the college of my dreams, so I definitely love to teach the ins and outs of that test. In addition to the ACT, math and English are my preferred subjects to teach.My teaching style is highly flexible, depending on whichever way students tend to learn best! I just went through the whole process a few years ago so I understand the difficulties and the overwhelming nature of these standardized tests. I am positive that all students have the potential to rock these subjects and I'm looking forward to helping you through the learning process!On a more personal level, I really enjoy reading, running, guitar, and Curb Your Enthusiasm.

I am a student at Vanderbilt University, majoring in Neuroscience while on the pre-med track. In the future, I hope to become a pediatrician. I have experience with and tutor in a wide range of subjects, and am most passionate about helping students with standardized exams. I know from personal experience that any exam score can be improved with studying and practice, no matter how frustrating or impossible it may seem. As a tutor, my goal is to listen to and address my students' needs as thoroughly as possible. Outside of academics, I love to fold origami, watch Criminal Minds, and hang out with my dog.

I received a Bachelor's Degree in Computer Engineering with a minor concentration in Math from Vanderbilt University in 2013. During this time, I tutored other students in math classes that I was taking myself. My ability to take other interests and find ways to relate them to the subjects that I tutor is something that I pride myself on. I tutor all sorts of math (algebra, geometry, trigonometry, calculus, etc.), computer science (Java, C++, C#), and Spanish. I enjoy music, sports and a nice cup of coffee in addition to providing my clients with my expertise.

I am a certified Special Education teacher and Behavior Therapist. I enjoy seeing my students have fun learning, which I believe is key to academic success!A little bit about me. . . I am originally from Ridgewood, New Jersey, attended Franklin & Marshall College in Lancaster, PA and then moved to Nashville to pursue my M.Ed at Vanderbilt University. Nashville has become my home over the past 4 years and I absolutely love the energy of the city and have made wonderful friends and connections here.My upbeat personality, years of experience working with children and strong organizational skills make me a strong tutor. Furthermore, my background in psychology and Special Education allow me to differentiate instruction, decrease anxiety, and employ positive behavior supports to ensure that the students I work with are successful in all realms of their studies.When I am not working, I enjoy taking my dog for walks, attending shows and making jewelry.

I believe in the power of education and how it can really transform lives. Learning a new language is not only learning another skill, it'a a way to look the world with new googles and tune up what you have seen till now.I have been working in in K-12 and higher education for more than15 years. I have mostly worked in the public (Ministry of Education of Peru = U.S. Department of Education) and private sectors (research centers and private university, Pontifical Catholic University of Peru - PUCP). I have been involved in the areas of educational administration, strategic planning, project management and evaluation, leadership and academic culture research, and teaching undergraduates.I have also worked and volunteered in nonprofit organizations with youth and adults in Peru and in the United States. My work has been related to leading educational programs, writing curricula and facilitating workshops such as social skills for the workplace, community organizing, parenting skills to enhance children's academic performance, and basic education skills.I received a B.A. in Psychology from PUCP. In addition, I hold diplomas in Gender Studies, and Human Resources. As a LASPAU-Fulbright scholar, I obtained her M.Ed. in Organizational Leadership from Vanderbilt University.

I am currently an undergraduate student at Vanderbilt University. I am majoring in Biological Sciences and love helping others learn about STEM too! I have been a tutor since I was 12 years old and have tutored almost every age group in every subject.

I am a senior at Vanderbilt University, studying Cognitive Studies and Business. I am working towards becoming a therapist and I love working with students especially through academic struggles. I used Varsity Tutors throughout high school myself and it made a significant difference to my SAT score. From that experience, I am inspired to help other students reach their academic goals, just like I reached mine! I specialize in SAT prep, AP Literature and AP Language, elementary to college level Mandarin.
