I am a graduate of the University of Texas at Dallas who is passionate about helping students. I am currently on my gap year before starting medical school this summer and am taking this time to tutor and teach! I have several years of tutoring experience working with K-12 students and adult learners.

I dual majored in Neuroscience and Psychology at UTD. Reading and psychology are my favorite to tutor students in because I am the most passionate about those subjects. I have always been the person that people come to when they need help because I am able to deliver information in a fun way that aligns with the person's skill level.

I am a senior at The University of Texas at Dallas. I will complete my Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering concluding the Fall 2020 semester, and I currently have a 3.84 GPA. I will continue my education and pursue my Master of Science in Mechanical Engineering afterward. I can tutor a wide range of math subjects including algebra, trigonometry, calculus 1, 2, and 3. I can also assist students in the math portion of standardized tests such as the SAT. As your tutor, my goal is for you to develop a different understanding of the topics you may or may not know to effectively approach problems.

I'm going into medical school the next academic year at UT Southwestern, and currently at the University of Texas at Dallas for undergraduate studies. I've been tutoring for over 5 years in a variety of subjects, and I love to tutor because I truly believe in supporting students so that they can reach their full potential.

Hi! My name is Ruth and I'm very excited to meet you! I used to be an elementary level reading, writing, and math tutor, specifically for kids with dyslexia, ADD/ADHD, or autism and I was also a substitute teacher, primarily for elementary-age kids. I have my Bachelor's degree in Political Science, so I am also capable of tutoring up to a high school level in government. I'm really excited to start working with Varsity Tutors, and I hope to hear from you soon!

I am an educator with over two decades of classroom experience. While my main objective is to expose students to new materials and ways to process the information so it will be retained, my style is to present that material in a fun, engaging way. Looking to learn while having a good time? I'm the tutor for you!

I am a graduate of The University of Texas at Dallas (whoosh) and most recently, Louisiana State University (geaux tigers). At UTD, I received my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology with a focus on geriatric disorders and my Bachelor of Science in Speech Pathology with a focus on feeding and swallowing disorders. At LSU, I received my Master of Arts in Communication Disorders with a concentration and thesis on feeding and swallowing disorders within the pediatric population, in particular premature babies. During my time at both LSU and UTD, I tutored in various capacities. I was a teaching assistant for a Statistics class for 5 semesters at UTD. At LSU, I tutored student athletes for 15 months in various subjects. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about Math. In my experience helping students (elementary-college), Math always seems to be a subject where students have a mental block. It is always a pleasure to get through that block and break (seemingly) complex problems into their parts and then watch the student work through the problem on their own. I am a strong believer in continued learning throughout life and try to instill this drive within my students. In my spare time, I enjoy music (both playing and listening), swimming, running, cooking, and traveling.

I am a law student seeking to help fund my living expenses while I go to school. Before I entered law school, while I was getting my master's degree, I tutored a variety of high school subjects and the SAT and ACT. I enjoy tutoring immensely, and after nearly eight years of doing it, I have developed a repertoire of tricks that help my students learn more easily. I particularly enjoy tutoring high school math and physics, Spanish, and literature, but I have experience in most subjects. I know many, many words :-)

I am a senior studying Physics and Math at the University of Texas at Dallas. I will receive a Bachelor's of Science in Physics in 2016. For years, helping people learn to approach problems and concepts in Math and Physics has been very satisfying to me. Finding the simplest way to think about an initially daunting idea or task and assisting others in recognizing the necessary reasoning process is a great experience. I tutor primarily Physics and Math, with a preference for Calculus because of the fact that the concepts of Calculus lend themselves so naturally to intuitive physical interpretations and analogies. I am also able to help with SAT preparation. My main hobbies include reading, playing strategy games, and watching basketball.

I am a mechanical engineering student at the University of Texas at Dallas. I enjoy participating in research related to bioengineering. My favorite subject to tutor is math because I have always enjoyed and excelled at it. I love helping students reach their full potential!

Hi there! I gradated university with a neuroscience B.S. and since then, pursued graduate education in healthcare and research. I have previously worked as an independent tutor for the past three years in my local community teaching SAT, OAT, physics, calculus, and organic chemistry. My expertise covers a broad range of subjects, but I am most passionate about life sciences and mathematics. In my experience tutoring, the key to my success lied with my connection to the student. I have learned adaptable and empathetic tutoring allows me and my students to come together and solve tricky learning gaps. Education is a journey. Tutoring is important to me because I have seen students, with the right support, unlock the potential they have to chase after their dreams! When I am not teaching I love going outdoors, engrossing myself in a good book, and occasional painting!

A kind-hearted, friendly, professional and highly trained tutor. I am extremely passionate about teaching, I find the position personally satisfying and beneficial to the students I work with. I am a great communicator and listener and have the ability to understand a student's needs. I love creating lesson plans, organizing workflow and interacting with the students. Education is a passion of mine and creating a safe, friendly and productive environment for my students to learn is a top priority. I've worked as a tutor for over 3 years across a range of subjects, especially Calculus and Chemistry, with my experience and set of skills I feel that I would be an excellent personal tutor for any student.

My teaching experience began when I was 16 years old, at which time I worked at a Mathnasium Learning Center in my hometown. I have since earned my Bachelor's in Psychology and am now working toward a PhD in Clinical Psychology. I have tutored K-12 Math, SAT, ACT, and GRE for the last several years, with a specialty in all four composite sections of the ACT. I greatly enjoy working one-on-one with students and showing them that it really is alright to not know something and to work through it together. I have had opportunities to work with learners of all abilities, including gifted students, those on the autism spectrum, and those with ADHD and/or testing anxiety. My goal is always to make things "click" on the first explanation, but I am always prepared to demonstrate multiple strategies for solving difficult problems. I look forward to helping your student reach their greatest potential!

I have been currently working as a professional tutor for a little over a year but I have been tutoring for a lot longer than that. I remember tutoring my kid sister for the past couple of years in subjects such as Algebra, History, Chemistry, etc. Finally, in her senior year of high school, I still cherish the moments when she asks for my help. Over the past couple of months I have been tutoring at a place in Allen and I love every moment of it. During the course of that time I have been able to establish a great relationship with all my kids. I love seeing their smiles when they tell me they were able to ace a test in school due to my help. Tutoring and mentoring kids is honestly the best job I have ever had.I am currently a junior at the University of Texas at Dallas where I am working on a BS Health Care Administration and Biology. I hope to eventually have a job coordinating departments within a health care clinic or even a hospital. I specialize mostly in on-level or pre-AP Biology and Chemistry as well as Algebra but feel confident teaching subjects such as History and AP Biology.I hold myself to a high standard and I will hold my students to the same standards I hold myself. I will not only try to teach the concepts, I will teach critical learning skills so my students can take the knowledge they acquired and apply it to other classes as they move through their school career.

I am a current Ph.D student at the University of Texas at Dallas. I received my bachelors of science in Mathematics with honors from Union College. While in undergrad, I spent all four years working as a course assistant, aiding professors with grading and coursework. I also volunteered with Girls Inc all four years, tutoring students in grades 1-5 in a range of topics, but mostly math. During the summers, I worked with the academic outreach program, as an RA and a tutor for students going into their first year at Union College. Now as a Ph.D student, I have spent two years as a TA for undergraduate students, mostly working in calculus based courses. I find tutoring an incredibly rewarding process; fostering a students growth, working closely with a few students, and really breaking through educational barriers that are difficult to tackle in a large classroom setting.

My sole goal is to see my students succeed and feel better about themselves. As a student who has been tutored before, I understand how important it is to build a bond with my students. Whether it be academic or social, I will always be there for them. My impeccable skill in teaching Math and ELA has allowed me to mentor several students with successful results. In addition, my experience as a certified tutor has provided me with the chance to teach students from all age groups and areas.

I am a current graduate student at Columbia University where I am earning my Master's of International Affairs. I grew up in Texas, but live on the East Coast. After graduating with my undergraduate degree, I worked in DC as a political pollster and consultant for five years. Afterwards I moved to New York and began to focus on Russia and the post-Soviet states as my academic interest. I have also been able to travel extensively to places such as Spain, Portugal, Germany, Armenia, Nepal, and many other countries. I have helped with translation, ESL tutoring, and have tutored adults and helped them improve essays. On top of this, I have also served as an Editor for our Journal of International Affairs. I have traveled extensively, and enjoy windsurfing, Russian Cinema, and football (soccer).

I've been babysitting for six years, and I've interacted with people of all ages. I've tutored a few of the kids I've babysat, including teaching one how to read and reviewing math with elementary school-age kids. I am also the oldest of four, and have helped them learn their school subjects, all with a range of before Pre-K through middle school. I've also helped my classmates achieve high grades on their essays, and I helped out as an editor/grader for a class that I took in high school.I have graduated from Vista Ridge High School, and I entered the University of Texas at Dallas with 24 credit hours from Austin Community College.Outside of tutoring and academics, I work at a local Salata, play guitar, do a lot of drawing and writing, and spend time with my family and my cat.

I am so excited to help you build your human resources career. As a life long learner I have been very fortunate to have had teachers, mentors, advisors and tutors who have helped me build a great human resources career. Now, I would like to do the same for human resources professionals seeking their credentials.I have more than 20 years of experience as a senior human resources professional. I hold both SHRM-SCP and SPHR designations. My experience and education has led me to build my own HR Consulting and Leadership Coaching business.As you can see, I'm passionate about helping people succeed in their careers.

I love teaching and mentoring - I have been doing both for the past twenty years. I am a teacher in the local college where I teach programming and computer networking. I have several years' industry experience as well. My teaching approach is personalized and interactive - I try to reinforce concepts using examples and asking questions. Of course, I encourage my students to ask questions as well. I have two sons both of whom finished at the top of their classes in their high schools. My wife is a teacher as well.

I am a sophomore at the University of Texas at Dallas. I am majoring in Neuroscience with a minor in Art, in the hopes of going to medical school one day. I have had extensive experience tutoring students, ever since I was a high school student myself, in art, PSAT, math, and science. I am most passionate about teaching math and science, as the critical thinking skills developed from these subjects can be applied to multiple aspects of our lives. I always found myself being able to connect with students more via these subjects, as their puzzle-like nature seemed to appeal to students the most, especially once we discovered the teaching style that suited them. I witnessed that a tailored and unique teaching style shows remarkable improvements, both in the subject matter, as well as the students' general reception of academia. I strongly believe in the importance of education and its role as a critical tool, which enables individuals to improve the quality of their lives and develop lasting connections. In my free time, I like spending time with my family, doing art, running, and reading.

Hi Everyone! My name is Linda Deaver, and I hold a B.A. in Literature and Historical Studies from the University of Texas at Dallas. My M.A. and Ph.D., which are also from the University of Texas at Dallas, are both in the Humanities with a concentration in the moral philosophy, literature, and feminist theory. I consider myself a non-traditional student and a life-long learner. What can I say--I love to learn! As a legal assistant, I originally started school with plans to take business classes to prepare for law school. However, it did not take long to realize that when it came time to make that fateful decision: law or literature, my heart belonged to literature. and art, and history, and philosophy. The study of literature and philosophy, especially, opened up another world for me, a world of new ideas and unlimited possibilities. I hope to share the excitement of that world with my students.

Hello! My name is Farnoosh. I am a Texas and California licensed pharmacist, graduated from the University of North Texas System College of Pharmacy with a degree in Pharmacy (PharmD). I completed my PharmD degree with a 3.76 GPA and passed NAPLEX with a triple digit on my first attempt . I enjoy working with students and recent graduates. My true passion lies in teaching and tutoring students and would love to help you achieve your goals!

I am a current student at the University of Texas at Dallas. I am majoring in Computer Science. In my time in school, I've noticed that subjects that can be captivating and interesting are oftentimes disliked by students because they have had a bad experience with a teacher in that subject. I understand that some students learn differently, and I take it upon myself to make sure that my students' needs are met. It is my mission to make learning fun and enjoyable to students.

Micah is currently an undergraduate student at the University of Texas at Dallas majoring in Information Technology Systems and Finance. He has years of experience tutoring and training students as he led a team of 78 students to the international level of DECA competition (the largest team in Texas).Micah likes taking unique, unorthodox approaches to solving problems. His hobby includes expanding his horizons about the technology and business world.

Hey there! I'm a certified math teacher, professional sous chef, and budding comedian willing to tutor in my spare time! A graduate from the University of Texas at Dallas in 2013, I have a multitude of both professional and private teaching/tutoring experience and skills. The teaching certification program I completed is heavily focused on STEM education and creating well-rounded students for today's technology centered world. Our lesson plans were both hands-on and thoroughly engaging while ensuring efficacy in education. I firmly believe that every student has the potential for "math literacy"; with a little help, anyone can be a math-confident person. I am most comfortable teaching math subjects (from preschool to BC Calculus), but I do have some background in reading/writing tutoring. I currently work as a sous chef four nights a week, but otherwise my schedule is open. I prefer online but am willing to travel up to 20-25 miles if needed. Contact me with any questions; I am here to help.

Personal Facts and Style: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Native English Speaker and No Accent (These are important to some students) Patient and Friendly Like to explain things step by step and write a lot on the white board! ALWAYS open to questions and suggestions from students and parents Background: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I have always enjoyed teaching new concepts to people, whether formally or informally. To paraphrase an old TV series title, I would say "Have books, will travel" to describe my passion for teaching. Of course, now these "books" are often online, and we travel with laptops and tablets. But learning will always be associated with the word books, in my opinion. My experience includes all levels of mathematics, including calculus, business calculus, and multi-variable calculus. I also love teaching the fundamentals such as algebra, geometry, and trigonometry. I am very comfortable in teaching computer-based topics such as Cloud Computing concepts as well as specifics for Amazon Web Services (AWS) Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP). Tutoring Approach: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- When tutoring, I first try to understand the student's specific goals and needs. Maybe it's help with HW. Maybe it's general concepts. Perhaps it's a standardized test such as AP, SAT, GRE. What does the student need and what are his/her goals? How can I help? That's my approach. I try to make sessions interactive to make the learning process interesting. This also helps reinforce student learning. For 1-1 sessions, this is relatively easy to do. For group sessions, I try to ask students if they understand, and I give them time to solve the problems that I present. Subjects of Interest to Me (not a complete list) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Science is awesome right? From the biochemical reactions inside of our cells to the extreme biological adaptations of deep-diving sperm whales to the long distance migration of some birds, nature never ceases to amaze me. I love Biology (especially Molecular Biology, Cell Biology, and Cancer Biology), Chemistry (especially Biochemistry and Organic Chemistry), and Physics (Classical and Modern). I enjoy tutoring in these subjects as stand-alone or as part of the MCAT exam. Current Endeavors ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I am currently working on Machine Learning (ML), and specifically neural networks. I use Python (with the Tensor Flow and Kera packages) and Jupyter Notebooks. I also use various tools in the cloud, and I set up billing alerts and cost constraints to ensure that I stay within my prescribed budget. I am also analyzing data such as my own Apple health data (XML format). There are many tools available for data analysis. I like using Microsoft Fabric along with the Azure Cloud, as it provides a good end-to-end solution.

Tutoring is a proactive way by which people enrich their learning experience and see their goals carried out by whatever means available. I shall be your means. As a Historical graduate student and Associate of Education, learning is my wheelhouse, and Social Studies are my specialty. I am a trained researcher, and will gladly assist you in your own research.

First, a student, second, a teacher. This mindset reminds me to take a step back and meet students where they are background knowledge, current situation, feelings about what is to be learned, dreams and goals. It's important for me to listen to understand students when I work with them. This way, I can ask better questions to help them grow in specific knowledge, as well as in life in ways that work for them. This way, my students leave sessions satisfied, fulfilled, and feel it was time well-spent. My education background is in the sciences - for the first half of my undergraduate education, I lived in New Orleans and studied Neuroscience at Tulane University. There, I took a Teaching position for an AP Calculus class at New Orleans Charter Science and Math High School my first real experience in a teacher-like role in after-school study sessions. An important question to ask students became "What do you want to get out of the class and our time together?" this way I could align my expectations of students with their goals. After Tulane, I went back home to finish my undergraduate degree at the University of Texas at Dallas. More of my teaching philosophy was developed here with positions as Teaching Assistant in Biochemistry and Supplemental Instruction Leader in Physics at the Student Success Center. Here, I started to see teaching as an art of sharing information and helping peers think in new ways about how to take-in and assimilate knowledge. I hadn't considered teaching as a career up to this point; I had always wanted to be a doctor. I took the MCAT in 2015, and interviewed for medical school in Texas. I decided on UT Southwestern. I graduated Summa Cum Laude with Bachelor of Science in Neuroscience at UT Dallas and then went on to complete two and half years of medical school with clinical rotations at UT Southwestern Medical Center. I liked all the specialties in which I rotated, but I did not feel called to any one specialty in particular like my peers did. This is why I left medical school in 2018 to pursue a M.S. in Applied Cognition and Neuroscience at UT Dallas. Since then, I have taught with Kaplan Test Prep as an MCAT Instructor for In-Person, Kaplan Partner Solutions Institutional Partnerships, and Live Online delivery modes. At Kaplan, my teaching style has matured incorporating elements of growth mindset and learning science with spaced repetition of relevant concepts all while meeting students where they are on their journeys in education. Now, as an Honors Chemistry teacher at Coppell High School, I am able to design learning to meet individual student needs in a dual-delivery space: in-person and online education, all at the same time, via zoom. Helping students achieve their full potential is my passion, and I specialize in MCAT science. Please reach out with questions!

I am a Reading and Writing teacher that is passionate about teaching young minds. The world becomes more joyful (and easier :-) when you are a strong reader and writer.I have several years of experience as a Classroom English and History Teacher, Reading Specialist, and Reading and Writing Tutor.I received my Bachelors of Art degree in History and Literature from the University of Texas.I'm currently completing my Masters degree in Museum Studies with a speciality in educational programming and social cognitive theory (the art of learning in social settings) at Oklahoma University.I tutor students in grades 4th through 12th in the areas of:Reading ComprehensionWriting CompositionI always aim to make each tutoring session fun and empowering for young learners.I take the approach of being a student's guide when we work together to help them meet their academic goals :-)I look forward to working with you to improve your performance and confidence in the classroom.

I have 15 years of experience in the computer science industry and am an avid public speaker. I have given numerous talks at conferences around the world. I am particularly excited about breaking down difficult topics into easy to understand sessions. My career spans working at the industry's most established companies.

I recently graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Economics this past December (2019) from the University of Texas at Dallas. I worked freelance as an online math tutor for students between sixth and tenth grade, starting in 2015. Math was a strong subject for me during my years in school, and seeing that math is a topic that students often struggle with, I enjoy the opportunity to use my skills to help others achieve their goals. I started tutoring in person during my senior year of high school and shifted to online tutoring sessions throughout college with students from around the state, with many coming from international families. I personally enjoy tutoring students because it's an opportunity to help them develop their skills and confidence in math and in day to day life. My philosophy on tutoring emphasises a strong belief in the importance of providing a positive and safe learning environment as an instructor. Additionally, with how different learning styles can be, I believe it is important as a tutor to be flexible in teaching style in order to meet the individual needs of each student.

I am a neuroscience graduate from the University of Texas at Dallas. I have taken extensive math and science classes at high school and college levels. I have over 3 years in teaching experience.

I enjoy tutoring because, when my students succeed, I get to be a link in their larger success chain. My favorite notes are from students who write to tell me that they just got their law degree, or PhD, or made it into the Naval Academy. (Go Navy!)I personally graduated cum laude with a double bachelors in Sociology and Historical Studies from the University of Texas at Dallas. I specialize in shepherding students through the SAT and ACT tests. As much as I enjoy math, I especially enjoy tutoring reading and writing because getting very good with that skillset has the most carryover value to the real world for most students.If I had to describe my teaching philosophy it would be, "Take your goals seriously. Invest in yourself. Lace in. Win through." In my spare time I enjoy reading and writing, and working out. I probably read about 30 books a year and I've written six books including several tutoring books-- since 2015.

I am a graduate of The University of Texas where I received my PhD in the Humanities with a focus on History and Literature. In addition to my extensive experience in the classroom, I have also raised a child with learning differences so I am keenly aware that everyone learns at their own speed and in their own way. There are no quick fixes and the student must be a party to their own success. I firmly believe that with organization, a good work ethic, and the proper learning environment, all students can do well in school. However, the most important ingredient is self-confidence, which is only achieved through accomplishing target goals. In the classroom, I concentrate on the individual needs of each of my students by helping them with organizational skills, reading, research techniques, and especially writing. This approach enables each student to not only develop their own style, but provides them with learning tools which can be applied to other areas of study.

I am a senior at UT Dallas working to attain my Bachelor's Degree in psychology. I am passionate about helping students understand and learn the topics they find most difficult. Guiding them to master ideas and concepts, I hope to make learning a more fun and approachable experience. Throughout high school, I have helped my friends and classmates understand difficult concepts and helped them master them. I tutor in reading, writing, English, and math. My favorite subject to teach is math because I enjoy problem solving and working to find a common solution. My teaching philosophy is that there is nothing that cannot be learning without proper guidance and practice, which I plan to provide to all my students.

I have a lot of teaching experience from grade school to adult students. I enjoy teaching and able to explain a difficult concept in simple terms.I focus on empathy and adapting to students' need and learning style.

Hello awesome learners! My name is Lacey. I am a longtime tutor and teacher. I received my BS in Business from UTD, followed by my Teaching Certificate. I specialize in Math and English (pre-K through adults). That's children through Algebra (for now). With me, you'll pass, and we'll still have fun!

I believe that a tutor's duty is to identify and cater to the individual needs and learning styles of their students. It is my goal to help my students understand new and challenging concepts in such a way that the information can be recalled years later. I most enjoy tutoring biology because it is a subject that deeply interests me and calls upon an understanding of many other subjects. I am currently a third year undergraduate at UT Dallas pursuing a degree in biology. I spend my free time working out, volunteering, and being with my friends.

Hi, I'm Kenzie! I'm a Mechanical Engineering student at UT Dallas and I've been tutoring online for 4 years now. My favorite subjects to teach are math and science, but reading and writing come in a close second.
