I am a senior studying Applied Mathematics at the University of California, Davis. I believe the most important quality in a tutor is patience. Everyone is capable of being great at math, but math is a very difficult and abstract topic, and the only sure path to success is through continuous effort....

Despite graduating magna cum laude from a mechanical engineering program on a full scholarship, I didn't always like math and science. It can take a lot of effort to "click" with these kinds of subjects, but once you do, it's a surprisingly rewarding experience. (Yes, I am a huge nerd now. See photo...

Emily

College English Tutor • +7 Subjects

I am a high honors, Phi Beta Kappa graduate of University of California, Santa Barbara. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Comparative Literature with a minor in French. During my time there, I studied abroad for a semester in Paris at the Sorbonne and the Paris Center for Critical Studies. I received the Certificate of Undergraduate Excellence in French and the Distinction in the Major award for my honors undergraduate research thesis in Comparative Literature, which was on the dynamics and representations of female transgression in the "stepwomen" of folk and fairy tales. I worked as a Writing tutor at U.C.S.B., first tutoring English to ESL foreign exchange students at the university, and then went on to work on basic study skills, writing, and essay planning and writing with undergraduates from all majors and disciplines, while also advising a few PhD candidates on their thesis writing. Since graduation, I have held multiple writing and editing positions, including my positions as Deputy Fiction Editor at the Los Angeles Review of Books and Associate Editor at Phoneme Media, a Los Angeles-based world literature and translation publisher.I am a skilled academic writer and lover of literature, and I am most passionate about tutoring English, Literature, English study skills, and Essay Writing (for both academic papers and college entrance personal statements). Not only do I believe that every student has the ability to write an essay, I believe every student has the ability to write a great one. I work to open up the blocks between students and language, changing their relationship to English and writing for the better and for the long-term...so that perhaps a tutor won't be so necessary in the future!In my spare time, I am a vegetarian and vegan cook, a runner, a soccer player, a creative writer, and an addictive reader. I love music of all kinds, was trained in jazz vocals, and love to see the worlds of music, art, language, and academics intersect. Confidence in language and writing has the ability to open all kinds of doors to students both academically and professionally, and I hope to help unlock them.

Canadian French Language Proficiency Tutor • +7 Subjects

I graduate at University of Tennessee at Martin. I have a bachelor's degree in Management and a minor in Finance. The reasons I am so passionate about helping students are mostly because a lot of students that I have taught in the past expressing their love for this language. My job was mainly helping the students with homework and their speaking skills. I am able to speak three languages French and creole which are my primary languages and English. I can teach beginners, intermediate, and anyone that is interesting in learning French. During my time studying at UTM I had a scholarship to go study in France for a month where I had the privilege to meet students from all over the world and learn about different cultures.

William

ACT Prep Tutor • +44 Subjects

I am a third-year economics major at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee. I am from the Washington, D.C. area and attended Episcopal High School in Alexandria, Virginia. My liberal arts education has provided me with a strong core curriculum, allowing me to not just limit my studies to economics. Economics courses have allowed me to continually increase my mathematical knowledge, whether that be in applying calculus to economic situations or understanding statistics at the business level. I am very skilled at math and have confidence in teaching all grade levels. I attribute my personal success in taking the ACT to a tutor, inspiring me to join the Varsity Tutors team. I have experience with many standardized tests, but I specialize in ACT and SSAT test preparation. My ability to effectively work with all ages allows me to intellectually grow. I am a passionate writer and understand the pressure students face in writing college application essays. My experience with college essays comes not only from helping students, but also writing essays for multiple schools when I was applying to college. I strongly believe that success is methodical and all students are capable of succeeding with the right regimen and motivation. Overall, my love for helping others succeed academically, as well as my flexible schedule, makes me a valuable resource to any student needing assistance in a subject area I am well-qualified for.

Temiloluwa

Algebra Tutor • +30 Subjects

I'm a graduate of the University of Georgia where I majored in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, and obtained a minor in Public Health. I currently work as a research scientist at a biomedical research institute.My flair for peer tutoring is the result of retrospection, a gift of my introverted nature. I have realized that there are many concepts across various subjects that I did not fully grasp at the time I was learning them. However, a couple of months and even years after taking those classes, when I finally connected the dots, there are a couple of ways I wish those concepts would have been explained to me. Sometimes I also wish that I would have thought to ask certain questions.As a peer tutor, I hope to prompt you to ask those questions and help you connect those dots so that the learning process can be more fulfilling and enjoyable. Standardized tests do not have to be fearsome mountains either. They can be an exciting experience to demonstrate your knowledge if you understand the concepts. (I say that from my experience as someone who's not the biggest fan of tests.)I look forward to guiding you to succeed, and hopefully, helping you enjoy the journey to success.
