Joanne
Algebra Tutor • +19 Subjects
I graduated with honors from the University of California, Riverside with a Bachelor of Science degree in Mathematics - Applied Mathematics/Economics and a minor in Statistics. I love math and want to use what I have learned to help others succeed in math classes. As part of my experience in college, I was a supplemental instruction leader and involved in math reader programs, which developed my teaching skills in different levels of mathematics. Even after I graduated, I still continued to do small group teaching in a private education institute and some one-on-one tutoring. When I see my students are struggling with math, I am always patient and use different approaches to make sure they understand the material before moving on. I can also teach Mandarin Chinese and Cantonese too. If you are also interested in learning Chinese, that's a bonus! I enjoy tutoring, and with my experience, I believe I can be a great help!
Donald
Algebra Tutor • +29 Subjects
I am a Senior at UC Berkeley, expecting to graduate next spring with a degree in Engineering Physics. Since I began tutoring, it has always been my philosophy to make sure the student understands a subject by breaking down concepts in the easiest way. My passion for the sciences drives me to not only teach what is on paper, but offer deeper insights to the material. I also love to laugh, and because of that, I try to make sessions light hearted, and less intimidating. Furthermore, as a problem solver, I will stop at nothing to ensure a student succeeds and fully understands a subject.
Derek
AP English Language and Composition Tutor • +24 Subjects
I graduated from Skidmore College in 2012 with a Bachelor's degree in History/Theater and a minor in Creative Writing. Growing up in Westchester County, New York I began tutoring elementary and middle school students at my local JCC in a multitude of subjects. Starting my junior year of college, I worked in the History Department as tutor, with a strong emphasis on helping students in American and European History. I am most passionate about tutoring students in History and English, including AP courses. I feel that I bring a creative and unique approach to my tutoring, and I actively work to help my students find a personal connection to a subject or topic they have previously struggled with. Every student has the capacity for improvement. In my spare time I like to read, write, watch movies, hike and play tennis.
Tito
ACT Writing Tutor • +25 Subjects
I graduated from the University of Southern California in May 2014 with a B.S in Health Promotion and Disease Prevention and a minor in Law and Society. I am able to tutor in multiple science subjects, standardized tests (SAT, ACT) and social sciences (public health, political science). I would be happy to help with any age. I help students by getting to know their background and understanding of the subject and helping them build upon that knowledge base through the sessions.
Daniel
Algebra Tutor • +31 Subjects
I was a doctoral student in Mathematics at The Ohio State University before moving to Los Angeles. I've been tutoring math since high school and started teaching courses as an undergraduate. Combined, I have over nine years of experience teaching and tutoring mathematics at the grade school, high school and post-secondary levels, from pre-algebra to differential equations. My goal in tutoring is to create an environment that students can enjoy learning in, understanding how they think and what approaches will work best for them, and ensuring that they have a strong fundamental background for future success in their academic careers.

American Sign Language Tutor • +38 Subjects
I've been a student of the world for almost three decades and I feel like I've just scratched the surface of what's to be learned about it. I'm excited to connect with new people and share the knowledge I know while gaining new perspectives about what has been in front of me this whole time.
Alanna
10th Grade Reading Tutor • +37 Subjects
I am currently a student at Occidental College, earning my B.A. in American Studies. I have tutored and taught students for the past five years in a variety of subjects in Tennessee, Los Angeles, and Melbourne, Australia. I currently tutor in SAT writing and verbal preparation, essay writing skills, English, and Literature. My favorite subjects to tutor are definitely those that involve writing, because they provide fantastic opportunities for students to express their creativity. One of my major goals in tutoring is to help students find a passion for learning the material they are presented with. In my free time I love attending comedy shows, playing volleyball at the beach, and finding new restaurants to eat at with friends.
Jackeline
Algebra Tutor • +11 Subjects
I am an active and dedicated learner. I enjoy learning new things, no matter how complex they may seem. In the end, it gives me great satisfaction to know that I was able to obtain full knowledge of something I did not have knowledge of before.I have taken my knowledge and have put it to the test by volunteering in places that have continuously tested it, in which I have gained a lot of experience. For example, I volunteered at my local hospital, in the Pediatrics Department for 4 years. Apart from attending the younger patients with toys and coloring books, I would help the older patients, who were in Middle/High School, by helping them complete any assignments for school.Not only that, but in that time period, and currently, I have been volunteering as a mentor and tutor at Fontana Adult School. There I guide students towards a college path so that they can achieve a career that best suits them.Along the way, I have had a lot of experience with people of all age, race, and belief groups. Being a tutor at Varsity Tutors is just another form to express the knowledge and experience I have gained throughout my life.
Bess
Math Tutor • +4 Subjects
I have a bachelor's degree in psychology from Southern Adventist University, located in Chattanooga, Tennessee. I worked as a research design, statistics, and general psychology tutor while earning this degree. I am currently in year two of a six year program to earn my PhD in Clinical Psychology. I tutor math, statistics, social sciences, and psychology. I enjoy tutoring math and statistics because I like trying to find new ways to help people understand sometimes complicated concepts. I find that things are easiest to learn if they can be applied to everyday kind of experiences, so I like to try and find ways to tie concepts into daily life.While I spend a lot of my time wrapped up in school, particularly in research and statistics, I also work part time as a therapy intern, and in my free time I love to ride bicycles. I am an avid cyclist, and I enjoy working on my small collection of bicycles when I can find the time.

He is fluent in Spanish and an active member of the Latino community. In his free time, he enjoys reading, writing, and taking the occasional photograph.
