I have over 20 years teaching experience in a public school classroom. I have also spent time tutoring students after school and on weekends. I have a BS Degree with a major in Interdisciplinary Studies and a minor in Education. I have a Masters Degree in Curriculum and Instruction with an ESL endorsement. I am very passionate about helping students become successful. In my teaching I use a variety of strategies and choose the strategy that is best suited for the needs of my students. My favorite subjects to tutor would be English, Reading and Writing in all grade levels.

As a Master's-level Special Education educator (University of West Georgia) with 5+ years of experience, I specialize in unlocking the potential of students who learn differently. My expertise spans elementary literacy and math to AP English Language, allowing me to provide high-level academic support through a lens of specialized instruction. I have experience teaching students with ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder, and other learning challenges. I do not just teach subjects; I teach students how to navigate their neurodivergence. My approach integrates academic goals with essential life skills, including emotional regulation, frustration management, and executive functioning. I am an expert in implementing IEP and 504 accommodations, using differentiated strategies like visual mapping and scaffolded tasks to turn frustration into achievement. I foster a supportive environment where every learner feels valued, building the lasting confidence and independence they need to succeed.

Hey! My name is Connor, I go by Ken, and I am currently a student at MTSU trying to become a high school teacher within the next two years. I've always been pulled towards helping others when they are struggling with things in their lives be it personal matters or academic problems, and I've put together that teaching is right up my alley. Ever since I took step one with MTeach (which let me teach in a real classroom three different lesson plans that I made) I knew that teaching is a passion and I've been working towards that goal ever since.Outside of School I enjoy hiking, rock climbing, golf, Frisbee, tennis, a few video games, reading, writing, playing the ukulele, and simply exploring the world around me. When I'm not working in the lumber department or heading the Kids Workshop at Home Depot I am normally at home watching my roommates two Blue Heeler dogs or am outside in a hammock enjoying life.If you are looking for a positive attitude, an environment where mistakes are a stepping stone, and are ready for a few laughs you found the right tutor!

Teaching ExperienceI am a life-long learner and enjoy assisting students of all ages, with all sorts of subjects, developing that same desire. The desire to question, the desire to know that you know, not just that the instructor says that it is so. The ability to know accounting, to engage in successful public speaking, to start that business, to develop that presentation, is within the reach of all of us. The biggest thing that stands in the path of most students is an unwillingness to try. If one keeps in mind that on the road to accounting success, to public speaking success, to building that business, to completing that knock-out presentation, is that there will be bumps along the road but there are no road blocks!I have developed and delivered countless speeches, sermons, and seminars. I am proficient in all Microsoft office products, including PowerPoint and Word! I enjoy assisting, facilitating that learning experience in students of all ages. Of essence is your willingness to succeed, if that is there, if you are willing to put in the time, then we can master any material! Some of the courses I have facilitated include...FP/120 – Essential of Personal Finance – 3 credit hoursETH/316 – Ethics and Social Responsibility – 3 credit hoursACC/290 – Principles of Accounting I – 3 credit hoursACC/291 – Principles of Accounting II – 3 credit hoursACC/300 – Principles of Accounting – 3 credit hoursACC/421 – Intermediate Financial Accounting I – 3 credithoursACC/422 – Intermediate Financial Accounting II – 3 credithoursACC/423 – Intermediate Financial Accounting III – 3 credithoursACC/491 – Contemporary Auditing I – 3 credit hoursACC/492 – Contemporary Auditing II – 3 credit hoursACC/537 – Financial Accounting – 3 credit hoursBBA/373 – Applied Accounting for Business Decisions – 3credit hoursMBA/557 – Accounting Applications for Management – 3 credithoursIf you were to ask my students what sets me apart from other instructors they would tell you that I actually enjoy doing what I do, I am not just doing it for a pay check but rather, it is because I like seeing the light bulb go off with a student when they finally get a concept, when they have developed the confidence to accomplish a task, when they value knowing not just because it will help them with a test, an exam, or with homework, but because they actually have developed the skills that will enable them to know!

The best educators / teachers will say that seeing students have the "light bulb" moment is what keeps them in the profession and what makes the struggle worthwhile. I know it's why I began teaching and why I choose to continue in the profession.I first encountered this feeling when I was a tutor for math and science students in college. I was able to help students reach that feeling often over the course of the semester, and even over the course of a session.After I began teaching, I found students certainly benefit from a skilled and committed teacher. But not nearly as much as they can from a skilled tutor. The content knowledge and methods of teaching skills / content can be focused to meet the individual student in a way that it simply can't in a full classroom.Guiding the student to their own "light bulb" moment is something that I always aim for with each session and is something that I've found happens more often with tutoring. I look forward to helping others turn on that bulb.

I have a Bachelors Degree in accounting from Middle Tennessee State University, and I am currently in the Masters program for accounting. I have a wide variety of field experience ranging from, tax and bookkeeping, to internal and external audit, at local, regional, and global (big 4) firms.

I am a certified teacher in grades K-6 with an ESOL endorsement on my teaching license and a passion for education in all areas. I taught in the classroom for close to seven years, but as I became a mother and my life and priorities changed, I wanted to explore the options of using my passion for education in other ways. I am looking forward to finding dedicated students who I can help be successful.I believe everyone can learn and achieve their potential, and asking for help never hurts. After all, as one of my college professors always said, "Smart people ask questions!"

I am a graduate of the University of the South at Sewanee. I studied Political Science and Economics and currently am a certified public accountant. I also have an interest in Physics, Mathematics and Philosophy. I enjoy sports and follow the market and economic news.

I am a graduate of Moody Bible Institute in Chicago where I graduated with a degree in elementary education. I then moved to Nigeria, where I taught second and third grade in an international school. After teaching in Nigeria for three years, I moved to Franklin, TN, where I have been teaching second grade for two years. I am passionate about intrinsically motivating my students to work hard and learn. I strive to make learning fun and interactive. To adjust to the specific needs of my students, I employ multiple methods of learning. I especially enjoy working with elementary students in any subject that they are struggling with. For the middle school and high school ages, I enjoy tutoring in: history, geography, and public speaking. When I am not working I enjoy the outdoors, sports, traveling, or a cup of coffee with a friend!

I enjoy working with all age groups in an effort to not only increase and success but to also foster a life-long love of learning! One of my favorite things is demonstrating to someone that they can learn most any subject simply by using the things that they already have around them, that they honestly know more about the subject than they realize.I have earned undergraduate degrees in Counseling and Finance from Middle Tennessee State University as well as two Masters degrees, an MBA and an MSA from University of Phoenix. I am also a DBA candidate with 35 hours remaining.

Hi there! My name is Ms. Mitchell and I love to learn. My top priorities include not just helping students learn, but more importantly, getting them excited about it. I've been in the education field for 15 years, working as a general education teacher, a special education intervention teacher, and a museum educator at the Creative Discovery Museum. I've encountered every type of student imaginable and I've loved working with every one of them! I'm a huge believer in creative problem solving when learning gets tough and I believe that at least 30% of an educator's job is to build your students up through positive feedback. I'm highly observant of what makes each student "tick" and adjusting my teaching strategies to match each individual. Let's work together to make learning fun!

Light sparkles in the eyes of every engaged student, from K4 early readers to 12th-grade senior-thesis authors; and from dedicated life-long adult learners to "night-before-the-big-test" college-crammers. Fifteen years as both private and contracted tutor has profoundly enriched me as witness of the light of knowledge emerging in receptive minds. I can't wait to meet you!For me, tutoring must be more than a lecture session starring *me.* Instead, I seek to thoughtfully engage each student in dialogue, using open-ended questions: "What did you notice about that letter?" or "If you were building a city, what would you do?" or "Why do you think looking at the twinkling stars inspired ancient scientists to develop systems of mathematics?" Such questions help create an environment in which new ideas are safe, exciting, and heard.Although math was always my favorite subject in school, I also find such joy in tutoring communication arts as an adult.Leading students to effectively communicate their knowledge impacts literally every course of study, no matter the age or field.The foundation concepts of communication and literacy, laid well, produce life-improving fruits that will accompany each individual throughout life's duration. That's amazing to me!Third grade thru high school, and college thru adult students benefit greatly from simple, straightforward methods of building words, sentences, paragraphs, and essays.Foreign language learning is a critical key of humanity's interdependent growth. While attending the University of Vienna, Austria, I had my first contracted tutor job with a group of soldiers from the Austrian army, teaching English as a second language. All these concepts lead seamlessly into the grammar needed for foreign language study. My BA in German language is a demonstration of this love of language. Additionally, I have studied 4 years of French, 2 years of Spanish, and recently began Mandarin Chinese.Truly, I eagerly anticipate working with you, as we journey, learning and growing together!

I am currently a student at Middle Tennessee State University finishing my last semester on a degree in Industrial Mathematics with a minor in Physics.I've always been interested in math education, be it helping classmates grapple the material, or as a tutor for a nearby community college. I try to explain material in a way that illuminates what's actually happening and connect it with what is already understood. What's better than seeing someone figure out the answer is hearing "Oooh, that makes way more sense. That's why we ____."

I first began became instersted in teaching when finishing up my bachelor's degree. I was tutoring some high school students in math and I decided to obtain my master's to teach. I believe that all students learn in their own way with thier own styles. I value each child as an individual and want to progress them at thier level, achieving successes in the areas they need.

I graduated from MTSU with a B.A. in English and a minor in Religion. I tutored at the University Writing Center there, working with writers of all backgrounds and levels of experience. Typically, I saw a string of writers with little time to engage with them as individuals, so Im especially happy about having the opportunity to engage with students on a more substantive level. Im a creative writer who has worked on the staffs of multiple literary journals, and I always try to bring that creative perspective of language to my sessions, whether in my interactions with students or in my lesson plans. First, regardless of the subject, well look at the patterns present in the material, and then, well work our way into understanding the conceptual bases of the subjects at large. Tutoring should always be a collaborative effort that encompasses a way of learning beyond any particular subject. By the end of our sessions together, I hope that you will have learned how to teach yourself; fostering that sense of independence is my main goal.Even though I specialize in material geared toward the English language, the humanities, and the social sciences, I have a background in natural scienceecology and microbiologyand have done a fair amount of basic research in those areas. I am always happy to return to those roots with you! I work from multiple frameworks that adapt to not only each individual student, but also their progress and its ever-changing trajectories. Rather than relying on visual learning, which I myself tend to do, I try to connect the visual with the verbal in order to tune eyes and ears to the metaphors that are the basis of any subject. In my spare time, I write poetry, so I highly value fluidity and dynamism in all aspects of education. Because of my love for understanding the aural/verbal styles of learning, I tend to work well with multilingual students and others who are revisiting the process of learning and loving English!My academic background: After high school, I attended UT-Knoxville on a full-ride as a member of their Scholars Program. Overall, I was very successful with my college applications and can help you with all aspects of that process. Admittedly, I changed my major many, many times, but that journey has led me to my love of writing and a wealth of knowledge from diverse areas and subjects! My specialties include poetry and drama; definitely contact me if youre doing either!

Hello. My name is Alex Hancock. I am a recent college graduate from Middle Tennessee State University. I received my Bachelor's of Science in Professional Mathematics. I am eager and willing to help in anyway I can. Please reach out and help is on the way.

Hi I'm Sarah. I am a Motivated, hardworking, and enthusiastic educator with experience working with children and adolescents in diverse settings. Inspired by the charisma and joy seen in the future generation, I have successfully developed students' knowledge through unique presentations, enjoyable activities, and deep thinking prompts.

If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough. -Albert EinsteinAfter completing 4 years of work experience as a business valuation analyst and level 3 of the CFA program, I have taken some time to travel (before Covid) and begin teaching online.My expertise is in options, futures, forwards, swaps and other financial derivatives, which I studied both at Middle Tennessee State University and the London School of Economics. I gained valuable tutoring experience in university after being offered a position in the finance lab as a head tutor, and have since found that those skills have translated well to helping business students thrive at Varsity Tutors.While I also tutor other subjects including Spanish and College English, I have found working with professionals seeking designations or motivated college business students looking to get ahead to be a great fit for me.I now work in business development for a venture capital firm whose operators have created over $3.0B in exit value. I help make sure capital flows to the best and brightest entrepreneurs, and that risk-seeking investors are properly rewarded for their bets.I look forward to helping you advance.

I have a bachelor's degree in History with a minor in Anthropology, and I graduated with a 4.0 GPA. I love trying to understand the context of the people in history by attempting to see through their eyes. Culture and geography work hand in hand with history to provide insight into that context.

Hi! I'm Rachel. I have a pretty relaxed teaching style and adapt well to all kinds of students. I really aim for students to understand concepts rather than make great test scores. However, great test scores are a good side effect of understanding concepts better.

I have a Bachelors of Science in Psychology from Middle Tennessee State University, as well as minors in Political Science and Philosophy. These programs helped shape my belief that the key to academic success is not in memorization, but in process development. My goal is to help students learn how to problem solve on test day rather than simply regurgitate information. When a student learns how to develop context around his or her knowledge, that student is better prepared for class, for research, for writing, and for exams.While many students panic at the prospect of taking standardized tests like the ACT or GRE, I have learned that my methods lead to more confident students, less stressful test days, and - most importantly - higher scores. I have experience tutoring political science, especially writing and research. I also tutor Psychology, English, Writing, and Middle School Math. I can help students write in MLA and APA format, as both will likely be used in college. Most importantly, I can help students gain confidence in their academic work. No one likes to study when they feel overwhelmed by the fear of failure, so I make morale a top concern. Once a student realizes he or she has the tools needed to succeed, school becomes fun again. After that, the rest is easy.

I am a freelance writer specializing in content writing, editing, and proofreading. I have degrees in English, Russian, and Russian Literature with minors in French and History. I love to bring my expertise in language, reading, and writing to students who want to improve their skills and achieve their goals.

I have spent the past three years acquiring a Master's in Recording Arts and Technologies from Middle Tennessee State University in order to help students just like you learn the art, science, and skill of audio engineering.

My research focuses on effective teaching methods for music mixing instruction targeting diverse students and using experiential learning theory and practice. I aim to inspire intrinsic motivation in my students while using real-world learning situations and practical experiential learning techniques. I also have extensive experience as a professional drummer and drum instructor. I'm featured on dozens of outstanding recordings with over a hundred live performances ranging from music festivals to high-profile venues. For 3 years, I taught drumming and general music throughout Oregon through Ethos Music Center.

My educational background is in mathematics education. This means I studied how to do math and how students learn math. I graduated with a PhD from North Carolina State University and since then, I've taught math for K-12 future teachers as well as math courses for non-STEM majors. I also taught high school math before going to graduate school. I am passionate about helping students overcome their fear and anxiety about math. Math can be a difficult subject, but I enjoy helping students understand both the how and why of mathematics. I want my students to gain confidence in their abilities to problem solve.

As a passionate educator with a Master's in Business Administration from Arkansas State University and a Bachelor's in English from Middle Tennessee State University, I am eager to share my knowledge in subjects such as English and supply chain management. While I have experience training associates in a professional setting, I am currently pursuing certification as an English teacher through the ArPEP program. My teaching philosophy centers around creating structured, engaging lessons that break down complex concepts into manageable steps, fostering a supportive environment where students feel comfortable asking questions. I am particularly motivated by the opportunity to help high school students develop their English skills, as I believe that strong communication is essential for their future success. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy reading and exploring literature, which enriches my understanding of the subject and enhances my ability to connect with students.

I am a graduate of Middle Tennessee State University. I received my Bachelor of Science in Video/Film Production with a minor in theater. Since graduation, I realized that my passion was in helping and educating others, so I began my career in education as a preschool teacher in Brentwood, TN, cultivating lifelong learners and nurturing the next generation. While I have an interest in a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about English, Literature, Grammar and Composition, and History. As the daughter of immigrants, I firmly believe in the power of education and lifelong learning, as it has proven to be absolutely necessary for an improved quality of life. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, watching film and television, photography, collecting vinyl, building Lego sets with my husband, and enjoying a football game.

As a tutor, teacher, and mentor, I strive to provide all of my students with the fundamental knowledge and skills they need to succeed in life. The English language, phonics, reading, writing, and general literacy are my main subjects of interest and expertise.

I am a graduate of Middle Tennessee State University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in English with a focus on American and British literature and a history minor. Since graduation, I have worked in commercial real estate, human resources, corporate training, and published a variety of articles and stories. I've led workshops on writing and musical studies and love to be involved in the community. I am very passionate about English, literature, and history. I've found helping struggling students with their English studies and writing assignments to be incredibly fulfilling; and nothing makes me happier than seeing students learn, grow, and succeed. I firmly believe tutoring makes me a better thinker and writer; and I learn just as much from the students as they do from me. Learning is a lifetime process and has no end. When I'm not tutoring, my interests include guitar, piano, sports, working out, and the outdoors.

Hello, my name is Teacher Jade and I am a current graduate student and an online English teacher. I am here to effectively help students meet their education goals! My areas of expertise are English and Writing but my B.S. is in Anthropology and Cultural Geography so I absolutely love to tutor students in History, Social Studies, and the likes as I am passionate about these subjects myself. I was born and raised in Nashville, Tennessee but have been able to live in various countries abroad for extended periods teaching English. I most recently returned from living in Peru and I value talking about world travel and culture. I am available to book on all weekdays and my passion in life is teaching. My specific focus is to improve my students grades and create long lasting study habits and an atmosphere with a passion for learning. When it comes to any level of English or writing, I feel extremely confident in my abilities to guide students to create positive results. I'm currently enrolled in graduate school to become a state licensed teacher in Tennessee and I am open minded individual with a knack for learning foreign languages as well. I also have a 120+ hours TEFL/TESL certification including TOEFL/IELTS training. In my free time I like writing music, singing, and polaroid photography. What sets me apart from other teachers? I'm professional and bilingual too! After living and studying abroad during college, I learned to speak French and Spanish so I understand how daunting it can be to meet those education milestones. I naturally encourage my students frequently during class and extend the content beyond our session to apply to the real world. I'm excited to be your tutor and enjoy the wonder of education together! Thank you for reading and the best of luck in your studies, -Teacher Jade

I have been teaching for thirteen years now! I currently work in a K-12 private school in Tennessee. I have taught K-12th grade English classes, both advanced courses and remedial courses, 12th grade Journalism, ESL, Executive Functioning, and ELA to learners of all ages - from preschool to adult learners. I can't wait to begin tutoring you! Please reach out if you'd like any other information.

In 2007, I received my Bachelor of Science in Psychology, with Minors in both Sociology and English, from MTSU. I spent several years in the medical field before deciding to pursue a career in education. I completed a summer residency with Nashville Teaching Fellows in 2011 before entering the classroom in the 2011-12 school year. I still maintain an active TN teaching license for English grades 7-12. All of my classroom teaching experience has occurred in non-traditional school settings. As the first generation college graduate in my family, I understand the challenges students often face when navigating the school system in both K-12 and college settings. This unique perspective motivated me to work with students that were often struggling with school or lacked the motivation to tap into their potential. As far as my teaching style and philosophy, I believe that every student can achieve greatness and there is always room for growth. I often approach learning with out of the box thinking, and use materials that engage the student, allowing them to make connections and learn concepts with topics that interest them. Once a foundation is laid, it can easily be built upon by applying the same techniques with other texts or materials that may not be quite as interesting, yet still required to demonstrate mastery of a skill. I have a record of success in my classroom, and was recognized as having the highest growth for English III in my district for the 2014-2015 school year. My favorite subjects to teach and tutor are Literature and Writing. I believe words are powerful, even more so when you dive into their often unspoken meanings. In my spare time I read everything I can get my hands on, re-purpose furniture, and explore real estate.

Experienced professional with a unique combination of technical expertise, managerial experience, planning and organizational skills that balance work, team support and ad-hoc responsibilities in a timely and professional manner. Well-versed in instructional design and implementation geared towards supporting the success of diverse individuals.

I was born to be an educator. My Tennessee father went to live in Colombia where he met my mother. He was a Spanish professor. My mother is also a Spanish teacher. My rebellion was studying French. So now I am fully trilingual.I received my PhD in Comparative Literature and have a degree in Medieval Studies from The University of Paris-La Sorbonne. I've taught teens in France, college students in the U.S., and professionals from Latin America.I am here to help those working on writing their dissertation, thesis, or essays.I am available to tutor students of Literature or Medieval Studies.I am also accepting students who are learning English, French, or Spanish.We all have different reasons for wanting (or needing) to learn a different language or to get a degree. Knowing the student's motivation is the key to how I approach our work together. The student's life goals are always at the root of how I approach the presentation and engagement with material. In essence, I am a mentor or a coach who seeks to push the learner towards their LIFE goals by ensuring they master the educational and/or personal benchmarks that brought them to me.

My passion for helping students grow stems from a desire to see the next generation rise to their potential. Education is an essential piece to this puzzle! I have tutored in-person and online several times over the past 13 years, taught 3rd grade and 10th grade in public schools, and worked with homeschooling students. I currently homeschool my own children and have three different tutoring jobs, where I tutor elementary math, ELA, and science as well as high school essay editing. While it is incredibly difficult to select just one favorite subject to tutor, I would say that I most ELA because I absolutely love literature and essay writing! I believe the best way to teach or tutor students is through deep, meaningful conversation and asking them thought-provoking questions.

I am a graduate of Middle Tennessee State University, receiving my Bachelor's in Finance in 2021. Since graduation, I have worked as a Talent Consultant with clients ranging from non-profits to high growth tech start-ups. Recently, I have decided to make a career change and will be attending law school in the Fall of 2023. Now I want to help others do the same by helping them prepare for the LSAT. I have an equally strong understanding of all three sections and enjoy discussing the concepts with others. My prior experience includes tutoring various accounting subjects throughout undergrad. I believe in a patient approach to learning, taking the time to make sure students understand the fundamentals of a subject and build a strong foundation before moving on to more advanced topics.

I wholeheartedly believe every child can succeed! I love all children. I love to encourage and foster intellectual and emotional growth. One of my main goals in life is to help children who are struggling. It does not matter what they are struggling with. I want to help in any avenue I can.

I promise to work as hard as I can to help every child I know grow and become the best self they can be.

While earning my bachelor's and master's degrees in English literature, I have had the opportunity to give students a number of tools to develop their literary craft, and I have helped students increase their reading comprehension by introducing them to a multitude of written works. I enjoy tutoring high school and college students, especially after teaching freshman English and working in the writing center as a graduate assistant at Middle Tennessee State University. My particular areas of expertise are assisting students with writing projects at any stage of the writing process, including brainstorming, outlining, researching, writing rough drafts, and editing. I also enjoy working with ESL students as they develop their conversational skills, reading comprehension, and writing. Furthermore, I assist with test preparation for both the GRE and the GMAT. Personally, I love all genres of literature, and I maintain a broad range of interests in composition, rhetoric, critical theory, the Renaissance, Romanticism, and Modernism.

I am studying mathematics as a graduate student at Middle Tennessee State University. I graduated from University of Florida with my BS in Mathematics. I have Pre-Calculus - Calculus III tutoring experience and have taught College Algebra.
