Computer science at the University of Chicago means Jack lives in calculus daily — from analyzing algorithm efficiency with limits to the optimization problems that underpin machine learning. His math minor adds formal rigor to that applied fluency, so he can walk through both the theory behind inte...

Information technology might not scream calculus, but Shauna's programming background means she's comfortable with the algorithmic thinking that underpins numerical methods, optimization loops, and the logic of how functions behave — all concepts that live at the heart of derivatives and integrals. ...

Broadcasting isn't a typical math background, but Taylor's 1470 SAT shows real quantitative chops, and teaching across the full algebra-to-calculus pipeline means he knows exactly where students' algebra gaps cause calculus to fall apart. He zeros in on that transition — making sure things like func...

Derivatives and integrals click faster when a student understands *why* the chain rule works, not just when to apply it. Maria tackles calculus from the conceptual side first — sketching rate-of-change problems, connecting Riemann sums to real accumulation — then layers in the procedural shortcuts. ...

An MIS degree means Akshay has worked through the full calculus sequence in a context where quantitative modeling actually matters — optimization problems, rate-of-change analysis, and the kind of applied math that underpins data-driven decision making. He teaches derivatives and integrals by connec...

Derivatives and integrals demand both conceptual understanding and procedural fluency, and Amanda addresses both sides. She walks through chain rule applications, related rates problems, and area-under-the-curve questions with clear step-by-step reasoning, then cements each technique with memorable ...

I'm not tutoring or buried in my textbooks, you will either find me rock climbing at the Triangle Rock Club, playing Ultimate Frisbee, working on my car, or enjoying the great outdoors (beaches, mountains, forests--you name it, I love it). On rainy weekends I enjoy tinkering with computers and old e...

I am an interdisciplinary educator with an Ed.M. from the Harvard Graduate School of Education and a B.A. from Dartmouth College. My background is primarily in integrated arts learning and museum education and I specialize in visual arts, history and art history, and object-based learning. In all su...

I am a recent graduate from a masters program in biostatistics at Columbia University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in biological sciences, with a focus in neurobiology at Northwestern University. In August, I will be starting a doctoral program in biostatistics at NYU. I was a teaching assistant ...

I am a graduate of Wesleyan University, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in Sociology with High Honors. With eight years of experience working in education, I've tutored students in math, science, history, and English, as well as helped students prepare for standardized tests. I've guided adults...

I am a junior Mechanical Engineering major at Yale, and I hope to become a Naval Aviator after college. I am also a varsity sailor, and enjoy playing music with friends when I can get some free time. I have been tutoring my fellow students throughout my entire academic career, and I would best descr...

I am proud to be a part of Varsity Tutors! I am originally from San Antonio, TX; I completed my undergraduate education at Rice University in Houston where I received a bachelor's degree in Biochemistry and Cell Biology. Currently, I am in my second year of medical school at Baylor College of Medici...

I am a rising sophomore at Harvard College and am about to declare as a Mechanical Engineering concentrator, working towards a Bachelor of Science degree. I've always enjoyed sharing my knowledge with my peers and those around me and have done so in both formal and informal settings. I've been a tut...

I am a graduate of Washington University in St Louis, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in History with minors in Humanities and Anthropology. Since graduation, I have worked as a tutor, teacher, and director of tutors at a charter public middle school in Boston. During this time I also received ...

I'm Solange - a recent graduate from Harvard where I studied Sociology & Women's Studies. I've been tutoring for eight years now, and have worked with a wide range of ages and in a wide range of subjects. Some of my specialties are college prep/test taking II worked in the admissions office on campu...
