I am currently entering my fourth year of medical school at Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania. I obtained a Bachelor of Science in Biology from Wheaton College in Illinois, where I graduated in 2017 with high honors. Throughout my undergraduate years, I tutored extensively in several academic fields with a focus on the sciences and preparation for the MCAT.I personally have a passion for teaching and find great joy in helping students recognize and achieve their true potential academically. I am dedicated to tailoring my tutoring technique specifically to each student, as I am fully aware that each person learns in unique ways. As a student myself, I approach my tutoring sessions as both a helper and as a peer, but never as a superior.As evidenced by my schooling, I have been trained at two top scientific institutions, currently at University of Pennsylvania. This extensive science and clinical background lays the foundation for my ability to help others in the scientific field. I am truly passionate about biology and clinical science and have spent many years tutoring students of all ages in these subjects.If you are looking for help in any area of science or MCAT/USMLE preparation, I would love to come alongside you and help you be your best self come test day.

I am currently an undergraduate student at Wheaton College in Wheaton, Illinois. I am pursuing a bachelors degree in elementary education with teaching endorsements in ESL and Mandarin. In high school, I tutored elementary school students in various subjects such as reading, writing, and piano. Oftentimes, I tutored in 2 languages: English and Mandarin because I was living in China. When I entered college, I tutored at an after school homework club at Lowell Elementary School in Wheaton. Most of the students came from diverse ethnic and cultural backgrounds. I was able to learn how to adapt to their learning needs in science, reading, writing, social studies, and spelling. Due to this experience, I decided to attain teacher licensure endorsements in ESL and Mandarin. During this past fall, I teacher aided a fourth grade class at Bower Elementary School. I taught social emotional learning to the whole class. In addition, I worked with students who needed extra assistance in math and reading. These diverse experiences have helped me to develop a passion in tutoring elementary school students primarily in reading and writing. I have especially enjoy sharing and learning cultural experiences from students who come from immigrant and refugee families.I believe that providing widespread educational opportunities for every child is crucial. One of my professors at Wheaton College once said, "Teaching is the profession that makes all things possible." This strongly shows that teaching or tutoring students can navigate them to pursue their passions and talents in ways that suit their experiences and personalities. Without strong support in guiding students, students will not be able to impact the society in unique ways.In my spare time, I enjoy using my passion for languages and diversity to engage in bilingual (English/Mandarin) conversations with friends. I also enjoy reading historical fiction novels and playing classical music on the piano.

Kirsten is a recent graduate of Duke University where she received her Master of Biostatistics, and she has a BS in Mathematics from Wheaton College in Illinois. While earning her master's degree she did research with a professor in statistical genetics, and was able to do internships at QuintilesIMS and the Duke Biostatistics core. During her time at Wheaton College, she was a TA for semesters in mathematics, and collaborated with faculty on a research project in computational epidemiology and was acknowledged in the published article, The Schedule Effect, which looked at how school scheduling can impact infection rates. Although Biostatistics is her passion, Kirsten has been heavily involved in tutoring students in mathematics and statistics. It is fulfilling for her to watch a students face as they understand a mathematical concept for the first time. In her free time, Kirsten enjoys playing basketball, hiking with friends, playing saxophone, and baking.

I am passionate about helping students because I have seen success and encouragement in ALL students so I know that every student can reach their potential. The privilege of seeing students move forward and be excited about a subject is amazing.I enjoy the relationship of tutoring and the encouragement students gain from being successful.I earned degrees from Wheaton College (BS and BA) and Wheaton Graduate (MA)I tutor Math, ACT math and science, and Chemistry. Being a native French speaker I also tutor FrenchEach subject has its "perks". I love the logic of math, the conceptual thinking of chemistry, and the fluency of French as I am a native speaker so I love the French language.My teaching style is heuristic, helping students discover with just the right amount of help to enable them to be challenged and encouraged and want to learn.My interests are reading about history, crossword puzzles, hiking, spending time with family, playing board games with friends

Hello! I am excited to work with your student to succeed! I have been working with kids throughout the city in various capacities for close to four years now, using my education and experience to help them succeed in school and socially. From September 2015 until June 2016, I served in a 5th grade classroom in Hyde Park with City Year Boston, helping my students primarily with their reading but also with math and other subjects. I am capable of working with you from various backgrounds and can tailor my work to fit the needs of your child.

English is a difficult, confusing language to master. Between hard-to-look-at spelling rules and nonsensical grammar rules, mastering the language can be a real pain. As an aspiring English teacher currently studying at Wheaton College in Massachusetts, helping you through that pain is what I like to do, and something I'm excited to lend a hand for.

Hi! I am a teacher/tutor/librarian/educator/writer. I think Varsity Tutors is a great opportunity to reach students interested in furthering their academics. I have been working in the field of education for ten years and focus in the areas of writing, history, math, english, essays, study skills, SAT prep, and more. As a teacher I really strive to understand where each student is coming from in his or her path toward learning. I like to look at the overall program of study, and work to incorporate a student's strengths into some of the areas they are currently working on to improve. By looking at all the skills a student has I believe we can find a way towards achieving the goals of learning. I think that planning is a very important skill as well and I like to work with all of my students with planning. This planning can be used for studying, for homework, for testing, and for any variety of areas that a student may want to bring to focus. I look forward to working with any student on their work. Thanks for taking a look.

I'm an elementary school teacher with a passion for education!I enjoy tutoring in my free time, because I love being part of the learning process. In my lessons, I try my best to make sure my students feel relaxed, confident, and eager to do their best work.

I'm Ben, I have a BA in physics, and a double minor in Mathematics and Astronomy. In my free time I fence, paint models and play a zany computer game called 'Dwarf Fortress'

I believe that a combination of patience, humor, and enthusiasm is the best way to overcome educational roadblocks. I strive to lessen any fears and negative associations students might have with a given subject. I want my determination to work hard to be an example for my students. I graduated from Wheaton College with a degree in Music History with a minor in Mathematics. I have a track record of excellence in academia overall, and have done well in math courses well beyond calculus. I have tutored mathematics and taught voice lessons on a freelance basis for the past year. I have enjoyed the experience of helping students achieve their goals. Over the summer, I helped an adult student dramatically improve her math skills on very short notice, which allowed her to pass a job-related math test.

I am a native of Port au Prince, Haiti, where I completed all my classical schooling (from grammar school to high school) and some college in French. I immigrated to the U.S. in 2006 to further my studies. When I am not at work or some other engagements, you will find me playing with my two-year old daughter and my six-month old son, or going on a walk with my wife (and the children), or hanging out with friends. When I am alone, you will find my eyes riveted on a TV or computer screen or, better yet, a book. Although I am no philosopher by any stretch of the imagination, I enjoy deep thinking, especially on philosophical matters. That constitutes most of my quiet moments in life.Languages and people are my passion. I speak four living languages and I am proficient in two dead languages. Few sights bring me more joy than seeing a person learn and grow. I hold a MA in Biblical Exegesis (Ancient Greek and Hebrew Interpretation) from Wheaton College, Wheaton, IL and a BA is Pastoral Ministry from Moody Bible Institute, Chicago, IL.I believe every person can learn any language he or she desires. Therefore, I tutor with one conviction--what stands between a student and his or her target language is a tutor who listens and taps into the student's dominant learning style. Because (in my view) motivation and passion drive learning, rather than focusing on weaknesses, I emphasize the student's strengths. I have seen students who were struggling in learning French obtain an A at the end of the same semester. I have also helped others gain a passion for the language while showing slow but steady improvement in learning it.No matter where you stand in your learning journey, it is my pleasure and honor to serve as your guide and ensure that you reach your goal.

Hey! I am a fellow student just like you! Right now, I am attending Wheaton College, but to give you a little more information about my background, I was born and raised in South Korea and attended an International IB school in the city of Daejeon. Going to this international school, I learned the importance of making friendships and strong relationships. I love getting to know more people as there are just so many people that can be my friend in the world! I love helping students like you because I too, had tutors growing up. It was so nice to have someone who was a mentor, a teacher, but also a friend. I want to be this person for you. I hope to guide you and help you in ways that I may have a little more experience and knowledge in. I also hope to learn more from YOU and am very excited for the things that you will be able to teach me! Growing up, I also went to a lot of camps around the country. I was able to make great friends that I would have never been able to make else whereas the camp is a great time and provides the space for friends to become intimate and vulnerable. I was most recently a counselor for elementary and middle schools (5~8th graders) for 10 weeks consecutively!Since I grew up in South Korea, I am fluent in both Korean and English. While attending the IB international School (TCIS), I was also able to take three years of IB Spanish! I am a very bubbly person who is also down to help a friend out wherever and whenever. I believe that two brains put together are better than just one, so let me help you!Some things that I enjoy outside of academics and in my free time are; Jesus, basketball, volleyball, spikeball, waterpolo, working out, watching Netflix, hanging out with friends and EATING

Apart from being a certified special education teacher, I have been tutoring regularly developing youngsters for the past 25 years. I enjoy working with, and, getting to know my students to discover their individual strengths and use those specific strengths to optimize learning.

I love teaching! I'm currently a substitute teacher working towards my Master's in Teaching (Science, Secondary), my primary interest is in writing new, comprehensive and engaging material which makes sense to students. I love students of all ages, I enjoy watching the "lightbulbs" go one when they understand a difficult concept, or when they are elated because they remember a fact they couldn't before. I am young and I am still learning, and I can't wait to become an even better tutor!

I love learning--maybe in part because I have had to learn a lot due to my lifestyle. Growing up between Ecuador, Canada, Spain, and the U.S. granted me many opportunities to learn and adapt. It also gave me the experience of being the learner many different times-- academically, after public school, private school, home school, and college in these countries I have a more varied experience of education. Now, as an educator, I enjoy coming alongside different learners and enabling and empowering them to reach their personal and academic goals.

I recently received two degrees from Wheaton College, a B.S. in Environmental Science and a B.A. in International Relations. Through my experiences, I have developed a love for education. I am currently a Middle School science teacher in the Kansas City area. I first began tutoring while I studied abroad in Thailand. I developed personalized English language programs for Thai graduate-level students. When I returned to the United States, I taught refugee fifth grade boys in all subjects for a year. I have tutored middle school and high school students in Geometry, Algebra, Writing, and Chemistry. And I have tutored college students in Biology. For tutoring, I create personalized study strategies based on a student’s strength and weaknesses. I work interactively to encourage independence and critical thinking. I believe that all students can attain academic success if equipped with the proper tools, work ethic, and self-knowledge.

I'm a recent graduate from Wheaton College in Massachusetts with a Film and New Media studies degree with a Minor in Biology. To be more specific I specialize in 2d animation and screenwriting being the two subjects about which I am extremely passionate.. I've been given opportunities to create animations for clients and want to create more amazing works. When it comes to teaching, I've been a camp counselor for a couple of years, and while in college, I would tutor children in elementary school and help them with their homework. When it comes to tutoring, I find this opportunity to be the perfect mesh where I have enough time to create while also using those creations to teach those who want to dip their toes into the art form. In my spare time I watch a lot of animations from animators I respect and look up to while also playing video games to find additional inspiration.

I'm passionate about investing in students who are excited to develop their academic and creative writing skills. I have experience working as a college admissions essay teacher with a diverse group of Ivy League-bound high school students. I also taught high school and undergraduate students in multi-genre creative writing. I received my BA from Wheaton College in English and my MFA from the Iowa Writers' Workshop in poetry and literary translation. My favorite subjects to tutor are college personal statements and creative writing because both require students to reflect on their lives and experiences. I believe in personalized, equitable education, promoting creativity. I often assign readings and curriculum with BIPOC and Queer representation. When I'm not tutoring, I am often writing poetry, playing soccer, or traveling with friends.

Hi! I'm an undergraduate of senior standing at Wheaton College majoring in Economics and minoring in Urban Studies. My favorite tutoring experience was with Concordia Language Villages, teaching Japanese every day for a four-week program. Combined with teaching Japanese entirely in the Japanese language, my teaching methods focused on interactive activities and applying learned knowledge through fun games and practicing the content to retain understanding.My teaching philosophy is that while every student is different, requiring unique lesson plans and teaching styles, everyone can greatly improve with some guided effort. Encouragement goes a long way!Outside of tutoring and school, my hobbies include piano composition, reading Japanese books and travelling across the world. I look forward to connecting with you!

I love working with students and am passionate about motivating students by unlocking their love of learning. I have experience TA upper-level classes and have tutored a variety of subjects. I attend Wheaton College and am working toward a degree in Chemistry and Spanish on a Pre-med track. I tutor math, science, and Spanish. My favorite subject to tutor is Calculus because I have so much fun with the songs and illustration I use to learn and teach. I meet students where they are and use illustrations and several resources to help the student the best I can. Outside of school, I enjoy running, martial arts, and good conversation.

Communication / Music (BA) at Wheaton College. My background as a homeschooler makes me excited about education and about educating you/your child! My experience as a TA and math tutor equips me to teach subjects including: English, music, math, and test prep. I also have experience in childcare spanning the last 3 years. Growing up overseas equipped me with crucial intercultural communication skills. Lingually, I am fluent only in English and Macedonian, but I will do my best to provide the best possible experience for you/your child.

I really like helping students realize that they can get better at math, no matter how they feel about it. I think it is important to listen to what student's think and need, and then work with that to help them get the most out of tutoring sessions. My favorite aspect of working with students as a math tutor is helping them develop their number sense and building their comfort level with arithmetic which helps at all levels of mathematics. Having been a classroom teacher for six years, I have seen a variety of students and learned to work with them based on their specific needs. I studied philosophy as an undergraduate at Wheaton College in the suburbs of Chicago and received my MEd in teaching and learning at the University of Oregon. I have been a full time high school math teacher in Compton, CA, and Roseburg, OR. I have also substitute taught in Phoenix, AZ, and Salem, OR.I recently moved to New York to pursue acting opportunities and have been fortunate to be in a few performances in the city already. I love theatre and music, but I also really enjoy sports. I have six years of experience coaching high school soccer, and spent one year as part of the coaching staff for the Linfield College women's soccer and men's basketball programs.

Hi! My name is Henry, and I currently study German and philosophy at Wheaton College. I am eager to help you grow in your knowledge and appreciation of French and German - my hope is that you will not only become proficient in your foreign language of choice, but that you will come to love it as well. To this end, my lessons engage all of your capacities to communicate: reading, listening, writing and speaking. As a continuing language-learner myself, I value trust and encouragement highly. I look forward to meeting with you!

I graduated from Wheaton College in 2015 with a double major in Archaeology and Geology. In the future I plan on going to graduate school to get my PhD in Archaeology. I have always loved teaching people about subjects that I myself am passionate about. In the long term I would like to be a college professor, teaching archaeology at a university.My favorite subject to tutor is archaeology, followed by history. Archaeology is an interesting subject because new archaeological discoveries have the ability to change our interpretation of the past. I also teach geology and social studies.My teaching style is all about helping students to learn information with context, fostering their ability to think for themselves. Outside of academia I play guitar and teach wilderness survival. I enjoy archery, woodworking, and making stone tools.

I work both professionally and personally to stimulate curiosity and creativity in the hearts and minds of young people who are able to see that spark and run with it.

My name is Henry. I am currently a graduate student in the mathematics doctoral program at the State University of New York at Albany. I have been tutoring high school and college math for many years. I especially love algebra, calculus, and discrete math.

Im Leah! I graduated magna cum laude with a Bachelors degree in English Writing and a certificate in a cross-cultural applied anthropology program. As a college student, I deeply appreciated the professors who fostered lively discussion of literature, used questions to make me think and write more clearly, and made heady concepts accessible through well-chosen metaphors and stories.These are practices I seek to emulate as a tutor. My English major has trained me to read and write well. I love to tell stories and introduce others to the captivating or thought-provoking books I find. My experience as a peer mentor in college trained me to use questions to help students clarify their understanding of difficult theoretical or philosophical concepts. I value helping students work out the answer for themselves. Im animated in my study tactics, employing charades, word games and silly stories alongside careful summary and review to help concepts stick.As a writer, I read other peoples creative work with an eye both for grammar and story. I look for the driving questions of a piece, highlight the areas of greatest curiosity, and call attention to what is already working well. On the academic side, I help undergrad and grad students edit their papers for grammatical clarity, intellectual focus, and style.Ive worked with children from 3rd-10th grade in a camp setting, and have tutored high school students, college peers and English Language Learners. Ive also spent more than eight years of my life outside the States and am very comfortable in cross-cultural settings.

I received my Master of Science in data analytics. I have helped students with questions about data science and statistics related projects for a year now. I enjoy problem solving and help with any data science and statistics related question using my skill set.

I am currently working towards a professional degree in occupational therapy at Washington University School of Medicine.

My tutoring interests include math, health sciences, and several standardized tests. In my free time, I like to hike, read, watch Netflix, eat good food, and play sports with friends!

I have worked with a diverse group of students, and I have always enjoyed watching them improve and succeed no matter their original ability level. My experience is primarily with grades 7-9 in the classroom setting, but I can also work with older or younger students. I specialize in English, but I can also do test prep, specifically for AP exams and the reading and writing portions of the SAT and ACT. I have a BA in English from Wheaton College (IL), and an MS in secondary education from Johns Hopkins.

I'm finishing up my PhD in history at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. I have an MA in history from Miami University in Ohio, and a BA in history and biblical studies from Wheaton College in Illinois.I have over 100 hours of graduate-level coursework in history, and three semesters of experience teaching history at the University of North Carolina. As a professional historian, I aim to show students that history is so much more than names and datesit's the art of investigating the past for its own sake, and also for the purpose of improving ourselves and our communities.My goal as a tutor is to help students become better readers, writers, and thinkers. These core skills will serve students not only throughout their academic careers, but throughout their lives and in a variety of contexts.Specifically, both in the classroom and in one-on-one tutoring sessions, I emphasize critical thinking and writing. I work with students to help them craft essays that are persuasive, well-organized, grammatically correct, and syntactically effective. I also train students to read critically to extract the main ideas and arguments from any text, whether it's a poem, a novel, or a press release.I moved to Dallas from Moscow in 2013, where I lived while conducting archival research for my doctoral dissertation in Russian history. When I'm not engaged in writing my dissertation, I enjoy yoga, embroidery, and architectural tours of Dallas.

I graduated from Wheaton College with a Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy as well as a minor in Bible/Theology. Since graduation, I have been teaching English overseas in South Korea and the nation of Georgia. In those roles, I was especially proud of the improvements my students made towards clear self-expression in speaking and writing (which was reflected in high TOEFL scores). I've got a knack for identifying an essay's strengths and weaknesses, and for giving specific feedback to make written ideas come to life. In addition, I have a passion for helping students improve their performance in ACT Reading, Writing, and Science. Whatever the subject, I thrive on leading students to moments of clarity and a sense of accomplishment. When I'm not tutoring, I enjoy exploring nature, playing strategy board games, and reading non-fiction.

I am a recent graduate of the University of Notre Dame, IN, where I earned my doctoral degree in contemporary American poetry. Before that I earned my masters in English at Wake Forest University, NC. I am passionate about poetry, writing, and the English language, and dedicated to helping others understand and achieve competence in the writing process. I have taught college-level composition courses, as well as a poetry course, and have tutored at Wake Forest University's writing center for two years, and therefore have experience in coaching students at different skill levels through many stages of the writing process, including formulating arguments, brainstorming ideas, handling grammatical issues, finding sources for research, and revising essays. I continue to enjoy meeting students where they are and walking with them through the learning process. We are all students of language; I find a deep satisfaction in enabling others to become great students.

I graduated with my Bachelors in Psychology and Child Development in 2019, and I received my Master of the Arts in Clinical Psychology in August of 2021. I am currently a doctoral student in clinical psychology with an emphasis on child/adolescent mental health. I love working with kids of all ages, and have had several opportunities to work as an individual tutor, helping a third-grade child with homework, and as a teaching assistant during undgrad. I additionally have had opportunities in graduate school to continue doing informal tutoring and have served as a TA for a lifespan and development course.

I graduated from Wheaton College, MA with bachelor degrees of Mathematics and Physics. I discovered my potential of being a tutor in my college. I have been a math tutor for three years and a physics tutor for one year. My tutoring experience made me realize the accomplishments of helping others with academic problems. It is an art to use different strategies to communicate academic problems with others. I loved my job and I hope I can continue tutoring in my future career.

Anyone who is seeking help in any of these areas, I am available to assist. If you have a need to practice Spanish conversation, I am a resource for all levels.

I'm a lifelong learner and love helping others learn! I've often been complimented on my communication skills and problem-solving creativity, which I use in finding the best way to help each student I tutor to grasp material and retain it, as enjoyably as possible. Learning should be fun! Sometimes that can take some encouragement for a student who is struggling, and encouragement is another one of my gifts which I delight to employ.As far as experience, I have worked as a tutor for four years, back when I was in college. I've also done some training in the business arena. Since I was a teenager, I have worked with children in various capacities including teaching Sunday School. In spite of a fun personality (and being told I look much younger than my 40-some years) I am also skilled at keeping students on track and focused in order to make the most productive use of our time.Relevant skills and attributes include being easy to work with, reliable, friendly, patient and kind. I genuinely care about the individual learners I have the privilege to work with and persevere until we see the level of success the learner wants to reach, celebrating the signs of progress along the way!

While studying, I worked as a Writing Consultant where I empowered undergraduate and graduate students to write clearly and persuasively and to read their own work with a critical eye for revision. I believe each student has the capacity to write effectively and I am passionate about providing the skills to assist students to develop their own voice.In addition to Writing, I especially enjoy tutoring Literature, Reading, and ESL/ELL. I am particularly equipped to tutor high school, undergraduate, and graduate level students, but I also have experience with younger age groups. My sessions promote long term improvement in students' abilities by adapting to their unique learning style and inspiring them to reach their goals.In my free time I pursue figure skating, hiking, yoga, painting, and poetry.

I am an organized, reliable, engaging teacher/tutor with a passion for Spanish and English!I majored in Spanish and Business Economics at Wheaton College (Illinois). Because I have studied Spanish for over 10 years, I know the ins and outs of the grammar for every level, whether that's middle school, high school, or college. I worked as a Spanish tutor my Senior Year of college, during which I aided college-level students with their various questions and doubts in their Spanish classes. After graduating from Wheaton College, I lived in Cusco, Peru for 2 years, which really helped me to implement the grammar I had learned for so long in conversation and in everyday life. Most of all, I just love the Spanish language and any opportunity to be involved with it!I also obtained my TEFL certification from Máximo Nivel in Cusco, Peru. I then worked for 9 months as an ESL teacher, educating Spanish-speaking adults and teenagers, ranging from beginner to advanced levels. I also served as the Assistant Academic Director for 2 months during my time as a teacher there.Language is one of my passions, and I think being passionate about the subject is an essential part of being a teacher/tutor. I love the process of helping students increase their language ability and I love seeing their confidence grow as they learn new elements to Spanish or English. My favorite part about tutoring/teaching is creating an environment where students can realize that learning a language can be very fun!In addition to language, I have a love for tennis, hiking, all things outdoors, salsa dancing (which I picked up in Peru), ping pong, mystery novels, and movies.I would be honored to have the opportunity to walk with you in your Spanish or English education!
