Algebra Tutor • +23 Subjects

I received a Bachelor of Science degree in Chemical Engineering from the University of Pittsburgh in April 2015. I pursued engineering because of my passion for science and mathematics, which I love to share with my students. During my undergraduate years, I assisted in research across various engineering and scientific disciplines: epidemiology, geology, robotics, and reaction engineering.My aim is to impart to my students the skills and abilities that helped me succeed academically. Chief among these is a love for learning, and that understanding base principles in any subject will make future work in that subject easier. I love to help my students to understand these core principles of math and science, because the ability to figure things out from just a few ideas is the most beautiful and elegant concept in the fields.In my spare time, I love to play music. I have played the cello for over 20 years, and I played it in a rock band, Kalon, for a decade. I also like to read a variety of fiction and nonfiction. Some of my favorite authors are Iain M. Banks, Cormac McCarthy, Hermann Hesse, Neil Gaiman, and Kurt Vonnegut. I also enjoy playing board games, like Settlers of Catan and Pandemic. I am an enormous hockey fan and also love to watch soccer.

Algebra Tutor • +13 Subjects

Teaching has always been a passion and a goal of mine, as through my experiences I have found that it is both enjoyable and fulfilling. I received my BS in Engineering Science and Mechanics from the University of Tennessee, followed by my MS and PhD in Bioengineering from the University of Pittsburgh. Since then I have been blessed to follow my own path of research in functional neuroimaging (studying brains) while also having many opportunities to train and guide students along the way. I have experience teaching in a personal one-on-one setting as well as in a classroom setting. Courses I have taught include Biomedical Imaging, Introduction to Biomedical Engineering, and Human Factors Engineering. I have also worked with students from a variety of places and of different ages, ranging from elementary school to graduate students. Aside from my career, I am blessed to have two boys, which take up much of my time. I enjoy reading, swimming, cooking, and spending time with friends. I also teach Sunday school on a part-time basis at our church. I love new experiences, such as travel, and do my best to continue my own personal development and education whenever possible.

Mary

ACT Prep Tutor • +43 Subjects

I am a student at the University of Pittsburgh, graduating in May with a major in Neuroscience and minors in Chemistry and Spanish. I've been teaching and tutoring for a year and a half as an Undergraduate Teaching Assistant in the Chemistry department, working with students one on one and in small groups in General and Organic Chemistry. As a pre-medical student and a Neuroscience major, I've taken extensive coursework in biology, physiology, physics and math, so I am qualified to tutor those subjects as well.In addition to my strong science background, I love reading, writing and learning about culture and language. I took four years of college level Spanish and I'm proficient in reading, writing, speaking and listening in Spanish, with a particular knack for explaining grammar and editing compositions.In my free time I like to ride the bike trails around Pittsburgh, explore the city's wonderful museums and libraries and cook delicious meals with my roommates.

Chrissy

Arithmetic Tutor • +39 Subjects

I was born and raised in the North Hills of Pittsburgh. In 2009, I graduated with honors from North Allegheny Senior High School and then studied education at Westminster College in New Wilmington, PA. In August of 2018, I completed my Master's degree in Curriculum and Instruction from Gannon University. I am certified to teach Early Childhood Education (PreK-4), Grades 5-6 (all subjects), Special Education (PreK-8), Social Studies (7-8) and Middle School English and Math (6-9). I have experience with children ranging from grades PreK-8.Currently, I teach at Seneca Valley Middle School in Harmony, PA. I teach learning support classes in the resource room setting for Reading, English, and Math. I also teach a support study hall which focuses on developing organizational, study, and social skills. I support students through co-taught inclusion classes for Science and Social Studies. My eighth grade students have severe specific learning disabilities in the areas of reading, writing, and math. Many of them also have speech and language needs as well as emotional/behavioral needs. My aim is to provide the best quality education possible and help my students grow by collaborating with the families and other professional and support staff. I am certified to administer both the PSSA and PASA tests.I have also taught at Eden Christian Academy, a private non-denominational Christian school in Wexford, PA. I specialized in 3rd Grade Language Arts and Writing; however, I also taught Reading, Spelling, Science, Social Studies, Handwriting, and Bible. The students I have worked with throughout my experiences have presented needs such as ADD/ADHD, OCD, anxiety, autism (ranging from mild to severe), Down's syndrome, mild vision and hearing impairments, and giftedness.I love teaching because of the influence, impact, and importance education has on a child's life. To me, serving in a role where I can partner with families and colleagues in order to make something "click" for a child, and to be able to rejoice in those small victories, is what teaching is all about.Outside of school, I enjoy reading, making crafts, and spending time with loved ones. To relax, I like taking strolls around the neighborhood or going to the spa.I look forward to speaking with you and providing any additional information which might be helpful to you. Thank you for your consideration!

American Literature Tutor • +39 Subjects

Writing and critical thinking are essential to academic success and participation in our cultural experience. Life is richer with a clearer understanding of how and why cultural production and the arts work. My goal is to demystify the writing process and nurture critical analysis to not only increase academic success but create more meaningful life experiences. I firmly believe that the humanities and a liberal education serve to create a rich and more enjoyable life, regardless of what field of work one ends up working in.I earned my Bachelors degree in Comparative Literature from Long Beach State University and a Masters in English from Portland State University while working full time. This blue collar outlook benefitted me by seeing how a liberal arts education dovetailed into situations that were not strictly academic in nature. The critical thinking skills that were fostered in the classroom would translate out into the living world allow me to converse and engage with various members of the community in meaningful ways.My passion is allow students to see this fluidity between the classroom and real world and help them realize the meaningful nature of the humanities. Once this understanding is achieved problems with the writing process and critical analysis become less daunting, since we must simply learn a new way to communicate the ideas we are already engaged with.I enjoy attending all sorts of cultural events, especially those that offer unique and differing opinions from my own. From the country flea market to the civic opera, watching blockbuster films to the independent arthouse offerings, I like to engage with all of the cultural productions that are available to me. It is in that spirit of 'Carpe Diem' that I enjoy being a part of the creative, living world around us.

College English Tutor • +36 Subjects

Hola! I have taught Spanish for five years at the high school level. Unlike many other Spanish teachers I did not like Spanish in high school. In fact, I struggled a lot with it. However, after high school I was able to live in Mexico for two years and learned to love the language. Because of these experiences I know what it is like to struggle with the language, but I also know ways to make learning it easier and more understandable.Through college I also gained experience writing essays and research papers. I acquired valuable knowledge and techniques in formal writing.I currently work for my church as a director of religious education throughout western Pennsylvania. I have degrees in Philosophy and Religion (as well as Spanish) which give me a broad knowledge base and skills in textual analysis and application.

I first began tutoring unofficially my senior year in high school after my physics teacher asked me to help some of his freshman students. It became an incredibly rewarding experience, for these students that I stuck with for nearly the entire school year were able to boost their grade up and feel more confident in their work.Some of my hobbies include playing tennis, hiking, and watching reruns of "Malcolm in the Middle" (my all-time favorite TV show).Currently, I'm a senior at the University of Pittsburgh double majoring in Neuroscience and Spanish and minoring in Chemistry.

I am currently a graduate student at the University of North Dakota studying Environmental Engineering and had a bachelor's degree in Geophysics from the University of Lagos. I have over 10 years of experience teaching Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, and Biology and in fact, my tutor's name came from teaching biology and people called me Species. Since my background had changed over time, I would be glad to be your tutor for physics, mathematics, and statistics. If you are looking for an individual that could work you through these classes and you are willing to transform yourself into an academic prowess, consider me as your tutor. While I'm very passionate about teaching, I can't do without playing soccer, reading, watching movies, and chatting in my leisure time. It is important to let you know that I found myself struggling academically in the past, and I had to be my own hero. This is the reason that I chose to help anyone in the same situation and make learning easy for them. It is true that the efficiency of a machine cannot be 100 % but, in your case, the sky is not even your limit. My teaching style is an interactive method with the integration of different approaches depending on the individuals. Moreover, you will gain the confidence to deal with any problem and you will have an open mind to reason through any challenges.
