Kelly C.
FAU High School, Nova Southeastern University
College Graduate- 4 Year Experienced Tutor
My name is Kelly! I graduated from Nova Southeastern University with a Bachelor's of Science in Biological Sciences with a 3.7 GPA (Cum Laude). I have been tutoring various math students over the past 4 years and love being able to provide students with new ways to learn material. At Florida Atlantic University, I was a volunteer for the Office of Students with Disabilities and a Tutor for The Center of Learning and Student Success where I helped college students in mathematics. Throughout my time there, I also tutored middle school students in Pre-Algebra, Algebra, and Geometry. Not only do I have a passion for learning, but I am incredibly dedicated to the success and ability of others to preform well and improve their grades. Whether the students I work with have a disability, need extra attention, or just simply do not understand the material, I always find a way to communicate to them in an effective and kind manner that allows the student to feel comfortable in the learning environment. Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1 (Algebra 1 EOC Perfect Score Recipient), Geometry, and Biology Office of Students with Disabilities Florida Atlantic University Volunteer for those with various learning and behavioral disabilities, including ADD, ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), and Asperger syndrome (AD).

Tamara R.
Weill Cornell Medicine, University of Oxford, Northwestern University
Experienced Biology Tutor | PhD Neuroscience Candidate
Hi! I’m Tamara. I'm currently a Neuroscience PhD candidate at Weill Cornell Medicine, with a strong academic background in biology and the life sciences. I hold a Master’s degree in Clinical and Therapeutic Neuroscience from the University of Oxford, where I graduated with distinction, and a Bachelor’s degree in Neurobiology from Northwestern University, where I graduated summa cum laude. Throughout my academic training, I found that the classes I learned the most from were those where complex biological concepts were explained clearly and intuitively. That experience strongly shapes the way I approach tutoring today. I have experience tutoring middle and high school students in biology in one-on-one settings, working with students across American, IB, and IGCSE curricula. I’ve helped students strengthen their understanding of core topics, prepare for exams, and build effective study strategies, while also supporting learners with ADHD, dyslexia, and dyscalculia. I focus on meeting students where they are, identifying areas of confusion, and breaking down material into manageable, logical steps so students feel confident rather than overwhelmed. When tutoring, I aim to make biology feel approachable and engaging. I typically introduce topics conceptually before moving into details, visuals, and practice questions, adjusting my approach based on each student’s learning style and goals. I want the students I work with to not only improve their grades, but also feel more comfortable asking questions and thinking critically about the material. I am easy to reach, responsive, and happy to work with families to ensure each student gets the support they need. Feel free to reach out with any questions or to schedule a lesson!

Kristen S.
United States Air Force Academy, Florida Atlantic University
USAFA grad, MD, and returned Peace Corps Volunteer who loves to teach & coach
I am a 2004 graduate of the United States Air Force Academy with a Bachelor of Science in philosophy & humanities. After graduation from college, I joined the United States Peace Corps and, for two years, lived in a small village in the sub-Saharan African country of Zambia. While there, I collaborated with Zambian colleagues at the grassroots level to increase rural awareness of preventive health measures to protect against malaria and other common diseases. Upon my return to the US from Africa, I began tutoring, and continued to do so as I worked my way through medical school. Subjects of expertise include standardized test prep, reading & writing, and math. My medical school experience forced me to learn techniques for efficient retention of large volumes of information. I, in turn, teach students these techniques, thus helping them retain what they have learned. I graduated from medical school in 2017 and continued tutoring, now with an additional focus on coaching. I believe this is what makes me unique as a tutor. I help students define goals, establish habits, and create systems that support good habits. We troubleshoot as difficulties maintaining habits arise, and modify our approach accordingly. I love helping students find their talents and translate them into career paths, including helping students find and apply for relevant programs of study, and finding professionals in those fields to advise and inspire. My medical knowledge, specifically my interest in mental health and how it contributes to academic & other success, also informs my work with students. I’ve successfully helped students with interventions like vitamin supplementation, dietary changes, and medication compliance for ADHD and other conditions, and more. I’ve consistently seen big improvements in students’ ability to focus, follow through, and in so doing, feel better about themselves. Please reach out if I can be of help to you or your student!

Hannah P.
Evergreen High School, Warren Technical School, Red Rocks Community College
Freshman at IU Bloomington
Hi! My name is Hannah and I am a freshman at IU Bloomington! MUSIC THEORY is a HARD class. I have taken it three times! I tutor the students in my music theory classes as well as my professor's students in his lower classes. I love sharing my knowledge of music and would like nothing more than to help others understand and love it as well. PROOFREADING is something I enjoy doing. Through proofreading all of my friends' essays over the years, I have gotten quite good at it. I am more than happy to proofread any essay sent my way. I LOVE MATH, I want to share my passion for problem solving and show others how it doesn't have to be frustrating and boring. I LOVE EDITING and WRITING, so please let me help make writing fun and easy! Being the grammar police isn't a bad thing... My favorite things are my dog, my fish, the mountains, and school;) Math is my jam! I love algebra and problem solving... as someone who struggled with math for years I understand the frustration of misunderstanding. Fear not! I am so excited to help students overcome their struggles just like I did. I graduated from Evergreen High School in Colorado last year where I tutored many of my peers since sophomore year. After years of struggling with ADHD and poor test taking/studying skills, I finally figured out what works for me and I love to help other students figure out a good solution for themselves as well. I am majoring in Audio Engineering in the Jacobs School of Music, but I have always loved math and writing. I am planning on minoring in secondary education as well;) I am passionate about teaching and take every chance I get to help other students. I am a great editor (and I enjoy editing papers) and I have experience helping with essay writing, reading comprehension, and overall reading strategies. I would love to help students with any math between Algebra-I and Algebra II (or middle school math!).
