As an instructor it will be my job to set the standard for what my expectations are and how to meet them. As a teacher, it would be unfair to ask those I am teaching to do activities or meet requirements that I myself am unwilling or unable to meet. Secondly, creating an atmosphere that is professio...

Chinasa

Creative Writing Tutor • +15 Subjects

I graduated from Coe College in May 2022. I received my Bachelors of Arts in Sociology and Creative Writing. In my time at Coe College, I worked as a Sociology tutor and an Executive Function Coach. During this time, I worked with multiple students to create personalized study schedules and techniques. I am passionate about tutoring in Writing and Sociology. Our words hold power, and figuring out the best way to deliver these words is an exciting and rewarding process that I would like to help cultivate. Sociology is all about connecting history, individual biography, and social structures to figure out the way the world works. I want to help my students broaden their understandings about people and the world, as well as sharpen their writing skills so they can effectively communicate their unique thoughts.

Rafael

10th Grade Math Tutor • +38 Subjects

I earned a MBA degree at Northeastern University. I received my undergraduate degree in Computer Science Engineering. Ever since graduation I have been performing coaching/teaching activities at the different industries I have worked in including Oil, Technology, Banking, Finance, Health and now properly in Education since 2006. I have lived in different countries for a considerable amount of time including Brazil, Costa Rica, Venezuela and Panama. As you can tell, most of them Spanish speaking countries with the exception of the first one. I have tutored extensively in Spanish in most cases students from International Schools who require preparation in math for standardized tests such as the PSAT, SAT and ACT as well as for other international examinations; though it is noteworthy I tutor a broad range of academic subjects and standardized tests. I enjoy the spontaneity of the students. I like to ask questions while the class takes place in order to make sure the subject is understood. I care about students reaching their goals, and that is why I constantly remind them the importance of committing to regular practice. In a competitive world the student who is better prepared is the one that stands out accessing the best programs and universities. In my leisure time I enjoy reading novels, watching movies and TV comedy series, biking, yoga, overall I enjoy a pacific and healthy life.

I love to teach because learning can be and should be fun. I have an infant so its a joy to watch him learn each day. It inspires me to help others. I went to college for Psychology and Accounting at Fresno State University. I love to tutor both children and adults. I really enjoy tutoring math of all kinds and take pleasure in making it fun for those learning. In my spare time I love to hike and camp. For me life is about having fun, learning what you can and being the best person you can be.

Rekha

ACT Math Tutor • +14 Subjects

My name is Rekha, a junior at Washington University in St. Louis, and I'm majoring in Global Health and Environment on the pre-med track. At WashU, I tutor Calculus II students through a group called Peer Led Team Learning (PLTL). The PLTL philosophy engages students to fully understand the steps in how to critically think of a problem. For me, I recognize that everyone's learning style, pace, and mindset is different. It's incredibly important to me to establish communication with my student(s). In terms of my teaching style, I tend to ask open ended questions both to guide the student and to go beyond the example presented to prepare for tougher questions that may show up on exams.Aside from tutoring, I'm involved in a couple of nonprofits. I work for NoStigmas, a nonprofit dedicated to raise awareness about mental health and suicide prevention through peer support. It has been a humbling experience to get to know the NoStigmas community and encouraging others to share their story through our platform. I also volunteer for City Faces, which is a nonprofit that creates a safe space for children ranging from ages 2-18 to express themselves in St. Louis. Although it can get challenging trying to control 20 hyper kids at once, I cherish the memories and creativity of the kids that I've bonded with over the past two years.In addition, I love to dance--specifically Raas, a traditional Indian dance. The Raas circuit is a whole subculture for college students who love to dance to compete nationally. Our team has traveled to California, Texas, and Illinois dancing at various competitions. The feeling dancing on stage is one to never forget: the adrenaline pumping through your veins, the crowd cheering for you, and most importantly, the teammates dancing along your side.I hope to help students through Varsity Tutors to the best of my ability and look forward to the experience ahead.

Liz

Anatomy Tutor • +16 Subjects

In May of 2015, I graduated from the University of Saint Thomas in Saint Paul, Minnesota. There, I earned my degree in Biochemistry while working as a coffee shop barista, environmental chemistry laboratory assistant, and emergency department medical scribe. Further, as an undergraduate, I developed a love for teaching as I worked as a Teacher's Assistant in various biology and chemistry laboratory courses and later had the opportunity to serve as a private tutor in Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry. I enjoyed the opportunity to work with students in the subject areas I love.With academic understanding comes excitement, further curiosity, and a sense of achievement. Leading my students toward this understanding is my goal, and something I take great pride in. In August of 2015, I began my medical school education at Creighton University. I am excited to continue working as a tutor while earning a degree that will allow me to be a life-long teacher.

Sukhnoor

6th Grade AP Language Composition Tutor • +19 Subjects

As a student, I am highly interested in the sciences which has led me to be in this position as a pharmacy student. I love to learn about biochemical processes of our body and how medications can alter that. Once that knowledge has been obtained, it is amazing to learn about how it can be applied therapeutically. My background consists of a public health degree while which helps me understand the broad perspective of health and then learning about pharmacy helps me zoom in and be able to clinically help patients. Professionally, I aspire to be in a workplace where I could continue being innovative and where I can utilize my compassion for individuals. I want a degree of freedom along with my job where I could learn new things and at the same time follow protocol.

Brenda

Biology Tutor • +5 Subjects

I hold a B.S. in Biology from Creighton University (Omaha, NE) and a Ph.D. in Genetics from Indiana University Bloomington. I recently retired from a 25 year career in teaching college biology where I taught human biology for non-majors, introductory biology for majors, cell biology, genetics and biotechnology. I have experience in principles of active learning in which students construct their own knowledge through a variety of activities including concept maps, problem sets, and drawings. I love it when I see a student go from a look of uncertainty to clear understanding! I am looking forward to the opportunity to help high school or college students learn and apply concepts in biology and genetics!
