I bring energy and energize! I am committed to lifelong learning and always improving myself and others. I am excited to share my experiences in order to show that education CAN BE fun and that it can open many doors for you in life.... it's just all about perspective!I attended the United States Naval Academy and was a linebacker for the football team from 2011-2015. I earned my Bachelors of Science in History. The Naval Academy challenged me in ways I did not know were possible. I was tested every single day mentally, morally, and physically. The Naval Academy is an Engineering school and all students are required to take dozens of credits of technical STEM courses to include thermodynamics, electrical engineering, cyber security, physics, chemistry, calculus, and computer systems engineering. Not only was I pushed academically but I was pushed as a leader. You are expected to develop your own leadership style and practice it every day. I held numerous instructor and leadership positions while at the Naval Academy and found my love for teaching.Upon graduation, I was commissioned into the United States Marine Corps my job as a Financial Manager. My passion for finance was sparked once I began my work as a financial manager. I applied for grad school and began my MBA with a concentration in finance shortly after from LSUS. It was at this point that I knew that I wanted to make finance a career. I currently hold the Certified Financial Planner, Chartered Financial Consultant and Retirement Income Certified Professional Designations. I also have great experience preparing others for the SIE, Series 65, and Life, Health, and Accident Insurance Examinations.I am excited to get to know you and your goals and desires!

Jared

College English Tutor • +20 Subjects

The average American consumes an estimated 100,000 words each day in conversation, news articles, blog entries, social media posts, and more. I have devoted my academic and professional career to discovering how to use these units of communication to create the biggest impact, whether it be in my copywriting, teaching, or audio and video production.I recently completed my Master of Arts in Communication from Marquette University, where I taught over 300 students in undergraduate courses that cover the basics of applied research and visual communication. I guided my students on how to create informational or fundraising brochures for twenty-four local nonprofits. I also earned Marquette's unique Certificate in Digital Storytelling, a program that has allowed me to further explore how audio and video resources can be used to craft engaging stories for fundraising, education, or entertainment.Prior to this, I was the Communications Director for a new nonprofit, where I was able to increase online and in-person engagement through an established mailing list and social media accounts. I produced viral videos that received national media attention and responses from Senators John McCain and Jeff Flake (among other legislators). I analyzed the demographics of our most engaged members and targeted an ad campaign to a specific subset of women, increasing our Facebook followers by over 100% over the span of two months.I also served as the Public Information Assistant for the Milwaukee County Board of Supervisors. In addition to my general duties managing the office and organizing events, I also wrote accessible press releases, doubled their Twitter followers, created step-by-step guides on how to use various web applications, and delivered concise news alerts to the entire county courthouse staff. I instructed other team members how to use the Hootsuite social media management system to schedule effective Facebook and Twitter posts that can be analyzed in terms of viewership and engagement.I crafted other digital campaigns during my work with Vertical Measures. I ghostwrote blog posts for a variety of clients using evolving SEO techniques and maintained a number of other lucrative blogs devoted to politics and popular culture. My experiences collaborating with diverse communities in Bulgaria and South Korea would invariably also be an asset to any organization committed to expanding its reach among various nationalities and ethnicities.

Daniel

Algebra Tutor • +5 Subjects

I am currently a senior student at the University of Nevada Las Vegas(UNLV) majoring in applied physics. Throughout my studies I have learned valuable teaching methods and incorporate these techniques into my unique tutoring style. My educational background incorporates many areas of mathematics including pre-algebra, algebra, trigonometry, pre-calculus, calculus, and linear algebra. I have previous tutoring experience primarily in math; and understand the different ways in which students internalize and learn new concepts. My approach to tutoring focuses on the notion that teaching should be personalized to each students specific needs rather than generalized. Ultimately; I believe that mathematical and scientific concepts are easiest to grasp when presented in a way which connect them to concepts more familiar to students. Implementing this idea into my tutoring style allows students to learn the material in a fun, enjoyable, and creative way. I believe every student has the potential to succeed and it is my job to help you reach your goals!

Elementary School Tutor • +14 Subjects

I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Elementary Education from the University of Montana - Western. I was a first grade teacher in Idaho and Nevada for 12 years combined. I have been an online ESL (English as a Second Language) teacher since July of 2017. I have experience teaching all elementary subjects, but I love teaching kids to read the most. It's exciting to see them transform from emergent to independent readers! I like to start with understanding what a child does and does not know in a particular subject. Then I can prepare lessons unique to each child's needs and learning level. I look forward to helping your child meet his/her goals!

Youssef

1st Grade Math Tutor • +25 Subjects

Reflecting on my educational experiences, I appreciate the immeasurable impact that teachers make on the lives of students. When I lived in Morocco, I have worked with young people as a teacher and youth worker in rural community schools in Morocco, I planned, prepared and delivered educational activities that engaged students in debate and general awareness raising about the broader global environment. Then I moved to the United States and started an MBA degree while again teaching French and Arabic as a language partner at the University of North Alabama. Many of the students I had were able to get prestigious scholarships abroad to enhance their language abilities.My experience working in varied environments has enabled me to develop a range of practical skills. I am able to manage effectively, conduct activities safely and communicate with people from diverse backgrounds. Further, I am very creative and enjoy sourcing materials that make learning interesting. Most importantly, my ability to work well with others, motivate, is a very significant contribution that I am confident I can bring to the course.

English Tutor • +10 Subjects

I became interested in tutoring after I graduated from the University of Minnesota Duluth (UMD). I wanted to move to Las Vegas, Nevada after I graduated and I decided to take advantage of the opportunity I had to work with Varsity Tutors. I graduated with a double major in Communication and Philosophy with an emphasis on Applied Ethics. Ever since I started my Communication program at UMD, I have been fascinated by the importance and influence of effective communication both through interpersonal interactions and through writing. In addition, I've gained an interest in public speaking and learning how to do it effectively since it is such a big challenge.When it comes to tutoring others, I know it is paramount to recognize each individual's personal strengths and background knowledge in order to most effectively help them advance. Because of this, I find it important to cultivate and develop these personal strengths to help bring it out in their projects. This is what I keep in mind when trying to teach material to someone. My favorite areas to tutor in are Writing, Public Speaking, and Philosophy because I think these areas of study can help people develop themselves in to become a well rounded citizen.Outside of Academia, I am interested in exercising, music, and Brazilian jiu-jitsu. When it comes to physical exercise, I keep things diverse depending on what I feel I need work in. In addition, I enjoy yoga to help maintain balance and keep a level state-of-mind. I enjoy listening to a variety of music from virtually all genres and I collect vinyl records and enjoy listening to them in my free time. When it comes to jiu-jitsu, I am still very much a beginner and I have only taken a few months of classes but I have enjoyed every single one. I am new to the area and have yet to join a local gym but am eager to get started again.

Algebra Tutor • +40 Subjects

I am currently a student of the University of Nevada Las Vegas (UNLV). I am working toward a Bachelor of Sciences in Biological Sciences degree with a concentration in Cell and Molecular Biology. Since my high school years, I have worked tirelessly through the community, tutoring my peers in my school's magnet program and children with learning disabilities for a nonprofit organization dealing with autism research. Though I tutor a variety of subjects, I am most interested in Biology, Chemistry, and Mathematics. In all my years as a tutor, I have always tried to stress the importance of education in changing one's life to my students, being a firm believer in the power of knowledge and education's role in bringing out the best of people. In my leisure time, I enjoy running, tennis, pleasure reading to enrich my mind, and playing the ever soothing melodies of the piano.

Zach

AP U.S. Government & Politics Tutor • +15 Subjects

Teaching has always been a part of my life. One could even say it's part of the family business. Both my parents, a brother and several aunts and uncles are all in the education field -- so it certainly runs in the family.I have always valued education -- not only for how important one can be from a professional standpoint, but from a personal one as well. There are few things more satisfying than seeing a student's eyes light up when they get that 'Eureka!' moment of understanding the subject material.My primary prior education experience was working at an inner-city charter school in Cleveland, Ohio. For two years I served as a one-on-one aide for an elementary-age student with high-functioning autism. His unique abilities and the way he perceived the world required me to become very creative in my teaching methods.I can say with pride that with a lot of work and dedication from both the student and myself that he never fell behind in his classwork. Indeed he became actively engaged in the learning process. (Telling him to give the other students a chance to answer the question was a good problem to have!)While at the charter school, which was K-8, I also had ample opportunity to substitute teach every grade level, covering pretty much every subject in the Common Core curriculum. Substituting also allowed me to expand upon subjects once the material left by the teacher was completed, allowing students the opportunity to ask questions about topics and subjects that interested them.I really think if one shows a passion for learning, that passion can be passed on to a student. I know from personal experience that learning is much easier if the subject is something that one finds interesting. The trick, of course, is to make any subject or assignment interesting to the student -- and that's something I feel very strongly that I bring to the table.While my primary experience is grades K-8, I also have a high level of competence in the social sciences, as well as English/composition for high school and even college courses.
