I have recently graduated from the Burnett Honors College at the University of Central Florida with a Bachelors degree in Biomedical Sciences. This upcoming year I am going to the Institute of Human Nutrition at Columbia University to get an MS in Nutrition and Metabolism.I have been a tutor for college students for 2 years at my university, teaching Organic Chemistry 1 and General Chemistry. I've also helped high school students with college admission essays, and with kindergartners in the Junior Achievement program.I enjoy working with children and finding creative ways for them to learn the material and to try to inspire a desire to learn by making learning fun for them. I also really enjoy teaching general chemistry, because I find the material fascinating. When I tutor a student, I don't just give them the answers, but rather I guide them to the answers. It is important that a student learns how to find the answers themselves so they do not become dependent on outside sources.

I am currently a student at the University of Missouri Kansas City as a part of their 6 year direct medical program. Medicine is my passion, and I'm thrilled that we are able to interview patients in the hospital and learn from them very early on in the process.The best teachers I've ever had have been more than just adults. They were passionate about the material they taught, and that passion was carried over to me. That is the main thing I hope to show students. A passion that will help them understand the material better.One of my favorite parts of tutoring is getting to know the students' learning style and how they think. The best part is that I have just recently taken all the subjects I have listed to tutor in. The information is fresh in my mind, so I can approach the content from many different angles to help the student understand the material.Outside of school, I spend a lot of my time at Buffalo Wild Wings, hands down the best wings I have ever eaten. Consequently, I also spend a lot of my time exercising - usually swimming or weightlifting.

"You got a dream... You gotta protect it. People can't do somethin' themselves, they wanna tell you you can't do it. If you want somethin', go get it. Period." -The Pursuit of Happyness (2006)As a 140+ time author, hip-hop artist, poet, spoken word performer and content creator - if there is anything that I know about dreams, I would like to tell you that taking your own path isn't the easiest feat in the world.Society teaches us that we should have the picketed fence, the perfect family and the college degree for the spacious cubicle twenty-five miles away from where you live. Honestly, that is not everyone's vision. Some of us do not desire to be average. Some of us do not desire to settle for a life of mediocrity.Some of us do not desire to let the talents and ideas given to us from higher powers go to waste all because we wanted to please someone else by fitting ourselves into their boxes. The world is constantly evolving and us as a species, we must evolve with it.I believe that the freedom of expression, whether it be in the humanities, performing arts, activism or essential services will help us to evolve and become more accepting of our differences. I've had the pleasure to use my aptitude for writing and performing to touch souls and hearts from all walks of life.My passion to heal the traumas of those that came before me along with my own gives me the fuel that I need to continue being of service to others as a beacon of light to show you no matter what life throws at you, never let that stop you in your tracks!

Adult Literacy Tutor • +22 Subjects
I first began teaching during graduate school, when I took on a small group of piano students in my parents' living room. Over the course of four-and-and-half years, my voice and piano studio grew from three to forty students as young as five and as old as seventy. I also had the opportunity to teach Literature and Drama at a private elementary/middle school for one year. While worthwhile and fun, my experience in the classroom helped me realize that I prefer working with students in a private lesson setting, as it allows me to understand their personalities and preferred learning methods. One-on-one, I am also able to get to know the students in such a way that they feel comfortable asking questions and being themselves throughout the learning process.My formal education and training are in music, specifically classical singing, and I hold a B.A. in Music from Gettysburg College, and an M.M. in Vocal Performance from University of Wisconsin-Madison. While at Gettysburg College, I acted as a tutor for Music Theory I and II students. I also took a number of literature and creative writing courses, along with seven semesters of German and a semester studying Music and German in Vienna, Austria. My love of reading, writing, and languages stays with me, and I still enjoy writing short stories and blogs, reading fictional novels, and brushing up on my German and French skills via Duolingo.While my career is mainly focused in music and private teaching, I have a strong background in administrative and publicity work. As an organization nerd, I revel in arranging paperwork, color-coding calendars, and creating spreadsheets. In my free time, I enjoy cooking healthy meals, baking not so healthy treats, and spending time with friends and family.

Frequently Asked Questions
The Ohio Bar Exam tests your ability to apply legal knowledge across multiple subjects—from contracts and torts to constitutional law and professional responsibility. Many students struggle with time management during the exam, the breadth of material to master, and translating classroom learning into practical problem-solving. Others find the multistate performance test (MPT) component particularly challenging since it requires synthesizing legal research and writing skills under time pressure. Personalized tutoring addresses these specific pain points by helping you identify weak areas, develop efficient study strategies, and practice under exam-like conditions with targeted feedback.
While individual results vary based on your starting point and commitment to preparation, students who work with tutors benefit from focused instruction on high-impact topics and strategic exam preparation. Research on personalized learning consistently shows that 1-on-1 instruction significantly outperforms self-study alone, especially for complex subjects requiring application of knowledge. A tutor can help you prioritize which topics to emphasize, identify your specific weak spots, and develop a study schedule that fits your learning pace—rather than following a one-size-fits-all approach that many students struggle with.
The MPT requires you to complete a legal task—such as drafting a memorandum or agreement—in 90 minutes using provided materials. Success depends on reading comprehension, legal analysis, and writing efficiency all working together. Many students either spend too much time analyzing the law or rush through their answer without proper organization. A tutor experienced in bar exam preparation can teach you a structured approach to MPT questions: how to quickly identify what's being asked, locate relevant authorities in the provided materials, and organize your response for clarity. Regular practice with feedback on your actual writing helps you build the speed and accuracy needed on test day.
An effective bar exam tutor should have recent experience with the Ohio Bar Exam specifically (or the UBE components it contains), understand which topics appear most frequently and carry the most weight, and be skilled at explaining complex legal concepts clearly. They should also be comfortable with performance-based questions, know how to pace study plans, and have strategies for test anxiety. Beyond expertise, the best tutors adapt their teaching to your learning style—whether you learn better through Socratic questioning, outlining, practice problems, or a combination. When you connect with a tutor through Varsity Tutors, you'll be matched with someone whose experience and teaching approach align with your specific needs.
Bar prep courses deliver the same curriculum to thousands of students—useful for comprehensive coverage, but they can't adapt to your individual gaps. Self-study puts the burden on you to identify what you need to review and how to spend your time most effectively. Personalized tutoring fills the gap by giving you expert guidance tailored to your situation: a tutor can see where you're struggling, explain concepts in ways that stick with you, quiz you strategically on weak areas, and adjust pacing based on your progress. Many successful bar exam candidates use tutoring alongside a bar prep course to accelerate improvement in specific subjects or practice components where they need the most help.
Ideally, bar exam prep should begin during your final year of law school or at least 2-3 months before your exam date. Starting earlier gives you more flexibility to address foundational gaps without rushing. If you're already close to your exam date, a tutor can still help you prioritize high-yield topics and focus your remaining study time efficiently. Some students also work with a tutor during law school to strengthen areas they know will be tested on the bar—giving them a head start when official prep begins. The key is starting early enough that you're learning, not just cramming.
Yes—and in many ways, retake preparation is ideally suited to personalized tutoring. Your previous exam results show exactly which subjects or question types caused problems, so a tutor can focus intensively on those areas rather than reviewing topics you've already mastered. A tutor can also help you analyze what went wrong (time management, conceptual gaps, test anxiety) and develop new strategies to address it. Many successful retake candidates work with a tutor to rebuild confidence, fill specific knowledge gaps, and develop a more efficient study approach that accounts for lessons learned from their first attempt.
