Nathan

Algebra Tutor • +20 Subjects

I received my Bachelors of Science in Physics from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in May 2011. I was a Teaching Assistant of a Physics course for two years while I was there. I basically helped teach the class by making sure the students understood what the professor was saying during the lectures. I believe that stripping down a problem to it's simplest explanation and then building from there is the best way to learn something completely.

Algebra Tutor • +42 Subjects

I firmly believe that any student can accomplish and understand the material of a subject, provided they have a targeted and tailored approach to their unique learning style and needs. I make it my goal to try to find what a student needs and aim to adjust my teaching to help each student individually.

Gregory

Algebra Tutor • +31 Subjects

I am a mechanical engineer with a masters degree. I enjoy teaching students of all levels. My approach towards teaching is to assist the students when they need help but let them make the mistake first so they can learn where they went wrong. I have traveled all around the world and feel my vast experience makes me a more relatable tutor. I also enjoy robotics which is a great way to combine math, engineering and science into an interesting yet rewarding subject.

Varshini

ACT Writing Tutor • +41 Subjects

I'm a student at Tufts University majoring in Biomedical Engineering with an intended minor in English. I've been tutoring throughout high school and college in a variety of core STEM and humanities courses, working in both a paid and volunteer capacity. Building a fundamental understanding of a subject in order to develop the flexibility to solve challenging, out-of-the box problems has always been my favorite way both to learn and to teach.Through my major, I've had the opportunity to integrate math, physics, chemistry, and biology in the context of medical innovation. As such, I've developed an understanding of real-world applications of and connections between the subjects we study in school, and I'm enthusiastic about communicating that understanding with others. I'm also involved with a variety of student publications on campus, including the student-run medical journal, and I'm an avid reader and writer.

Alejandra

College Physics Tutor • +5 Subjects

I recently graduated from Stanford University with a degree in Chemistry concentration in Biological Chemistry. I am excited about tutoring through Varsity Tutors because I enjoy encouraging and supporting younger students! Since graduating, I have been working towards attending medical school. I self studied for the MCAT last summer, so I can help you prepare for your test. Additionally, I can tutor biology and chemistry up through a college level. I took almost every AP exam my high school offered, so I can help with those, too! My teaching philosophy is to be patient and work through problems with the student. I know how stressful academics can be, so I am a firm believer in taking breaks when needed and prioritizing mental health to avoid burnout. Outside of academia, I am interested in music, makeup, and weight training.

I am a recent graduate of Emory University, where I studied Mathematics and Philosophy. I have over three years of experience tutoring middle-school to high-school students in math, science, and test prep. I think every student learns differently, and the most important job of a tutor is to tailor his or her style of teaching to each student's unique way of thinking.

Serdar

ACT Math Tutor • +21 Subjects

Educating children, showing them the way to be successful and addressing their needs has been my wish since my early high school years. That???s why I have chose to become an undergraduate student of Physics education department at Middle East Technical University. The extensive study program and busy academic life at METU, where I held high academic achievement, gave me the knowledge and skills necessary to become a good teacher. Throughout my academic years, I tried to stay focused on my studies and master my subject. The courses offered at the education department provided me with the opportunities to develop teaching materials, use instructional methods and manage and guide a classroom. Moreover, I was involved in projects where we made lesson plans and developed high school physics curriculum. I had the chance to demonstrate my knowledge during my teaching practice years at METU High school and I was very satisfied to see that my students were making progress.Besides my educational background, I have five years of work experience. I worked in four different schools in three different countries. Those years ripened me and made me experienced in teaching. I had the opportunity to deal with twenty five students in one classroom and give them extra lessons to back up the things covered. On the other hand, I worked with as few as five students in one classroom when I was preparing students for a national examination. I also held good communication with students and tried to help them with special needs. The expectation of parents was really high, since most of the schools I worked were private schools. Therefore, I had to provide parents with information about their child???s progress where I improved my communication skills with parents. Besides all these duties, some of my responsibilities were attending education and staff meetings and conferences, dealing with students??? problems and organizing social activities for students.I believe that I can maintain a good relationship with students simply because I am very adaptable. I studied in a foreign country and I have traveled to a lot of places. I have friends from all over the world and I still keep in touch with them. Having dealt with students with different personalities I believe that I can be a good friend to them. Although teaching is my major area of interest, I spend my spare time doing social activities and sports. I am fond of playing table tennis. In addition to all these, I am also interested in cooking and traveling. I believe that I can combine my personal interests with those of a student to better address his/her needs.
