ACT/SAT and English Tutor with 3 Years of Experience

Hello! My name is Abby, and I've been tutoring and teaching for 3 years now. I have a BA in English & comparative literature and in political science from the University of North Carolina, where I graduated summa cum laude. Go heels! I have a variety of teaching experiences. I've been an online tutor with Varsity Tutors since 2020, where I mainly teach ACT/SAT test prep, K-12 English, and college application essay writing. After graduating from university in May 2021, I also began working as a classroom teacher. During the summer of 2021, I was a 4th and 5th-grade reading and math remediation teacher for summer school. And for the past two school years, I've been teaching 7-12th grade English at a secondary school in Spain. In Spain, I also do private English tutoring for many families, with children ranging in age from 5 to 11 years old. My tutoring philosophy is to provide students with the learning strategies they need to master information in their studies and to foster lifelong independent learning skills. I want to help students be passionate about their education, so they have self-motivation to improve. I mainly teach K-12 English, ACT/SAT test prep, and essay writing. But I'm also comfortable teaching many history, social science, and humanities subjects.

American University

Experienced K-12 Tutor

Hello! I'm a reliable, energetic, and studious college student with approximately 3 years of paid experience with tutoring kids and teens K-12 and a lifelong experience of caring for children of all ages. I've worked with kids through several avenues, from formally tutoring at middle schools to initiating my own kid-centered programs that centers on political education and community building. Within the specialties that I've listed, I have earned an A- or higher on that subject and had tutored in with personalized study plans I've created. strive to equip every child that I come across with the tools to navigate through the world successfully and to lovingly push them towards their greatest potential. I previously worked at a middle school, where I tutored struggling, average, and advanced students in Literacy/ELA. We typically choose which format of media that the student prefers (i.e. ebook, article, etc.), read the text fully, and enter back into the text to dissect its writing format, grammar usage, vocabulary words, and more depending on the student's area of understanding. Usually I'll have the student undergo a diagnostic test I have designed to evaluate where they are in their learning so that I can properly asses and make use of their valuable time. I prepare lesson plans to meet goals identified in students' individualized study plans and maintain detailed files that track students learning progress.

Craig J.

Southern Illinois University

Spanish Tutor

Hello! My name is Craig and I am eager to work with you. Here is some information about me so that you can decide if I am the right person to help: I am a graduate from Southern Illinois University Carbondale with a degree in Foreign Language and International Trade. My love of language started in high school when I was an exchange student in Panama. I lived for six months with a local host family, I learned to speak Spanish and I adapted to the culture. This experience has made me a much more flexible person, better able to work and communicate with people from other cultures and backgrounds. Learning Spanish has also made me much better at understanding my own native language. While in university I taught Spanish and Latin Dance through the continuing education program at John A. Logan College. Since graduating I have lived in Colombia, South America. Here I have taught English in SENA (Servicio Nacional de Aprendizaje), Institución Universitaria CESMAG, Universidad Mariana, and Universidad de Nariño. I love helping others, which always makes teaching people a pleasure. My teaching methods include games and conversation, along with grammar and sentence structure exercises. I think it is important to combine the best aspects of the Indirect and Grammar Based Methods. I hope this information helps you to make your choice!

Northern Arizona University, Coastline Community College

Passionate and Patient Math Tutor with 6 years of Experience

Hello, my name is Bridgette, and I am 27 years old. I have tutored in math for six years, first in Arizona while obtaining my bachelor's degree and then in California after I graduated from university. I received my bachelor's degree in Interdisciplinary Studies from Northern Arizona University (Go Lumberjacks!). As part of my coursework, I took education classes and was a student teacher for a semester. I am currently working on my associate's degree in Mathematics as preparation for graduate school. I currently tutor Elementary Math up to Algebra II, Integrated Math 1-3, CBEST Math Test Prep, GED Math Test Prep, and Science for elementary and middle school students. My teaching method is to meet students where they are. I focus on student understanding rather than drilling them on practice problems. I ask students questions that guide them thru the concepts rather than lecturing them. This method has worked well for me, as many of my student's grades and confidence have improved. What I enjoy most about tutoring is helping students find their love for learning. Once a student finds the desire to learn and expand their understanding of the world, they become a contributor to society. I also like to make it fun. When a student finds learning enjoyable, everything else comes naturally. If you are looking for a patient and passionate tutor to work with you or your child, send me a message.

Scott B.

Drexel University College of Medicine, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute

MD Student and Published Researcher with >90th Percentile MCAT

Howdy – I’m Scott. I’m a decidedly non-traditional medical student who didn’t learn how to study effectively until I was an adult, and I wouldn’t be where I am today without the help of tutors! You might have some amazing teachers or professors, but it’s unlikely they’ll all present course material in a way that works for you. If you aren’t getting the results you’re expecting, it’s time to find a new approach that will get you where you want to be. I have experience tutoring teenage to adult learners in a broad range of science topics, from basic chemistry to anatomy and physiology. Whether you are just trying to meet graduation requirements or preparing for a career in science or medicine, my goal is to help you develop the skills of a lifelong learner and make myself redundant as soon as possible. We will find the styles of learning that complement your strengths and use those methods to develop in any areas you find more challenging. My background: After graduating with a degree in Information Technology, I initially worked in the entertainment industry training professional video editors before transitioning to medical education. From 2008-2012, I taught clinical skills to medical students at UCSF and the University of Minnesota. From 2013-2020, I worked full-time in clinical research at the University of Colorado. I self-studied to score >90th percentile on my first MCAT attempt and just completed my first year of medical school.

Hello, my name is Kathrine Wiberg and I am a Science Tutor and AQA Examiner. I have been a qualified teacher for 4 years and have recently become an Online Tutor full time. I chose to do Online tutoring full time as I find it is more rewarding to see each student achieve their goals. I teach all 3 sciences to GCSE level and I teach A-level Biology and Physics. I am passionate about tutoring and strive to help your son/daughter excel in their Science exams. I have a friendly and relaxed approach to teaching and always try to make my students feel comfortable enough to get involved. I have been tutoring online and 1-1 for 3 years now. I offer a range of styles in my teaching that allows the student to get involved with the lesson. This may include: labeling diagrams, creating a flow chart, completing a graph, correcting mistakes in a method e.t.c. I have recently become an online tutor full time. This is giving me more time to make outstanding lessons for my 1-1 students. I can spend more time making sure that each student is getting the best education possible and be able to achieve grades they could not manage in a school environment. Closer to exams, I show students how to answer exam questions. I am an examiner at AQA so I understand what the examiners are looking for and can help students with exam techniques.

Calem C.

23 year-old graduate with a masters in Chemistry & Physics and 400 hours of one-to-one tutoring experience.

Hi there! I'm a 23 year-old graduate with a 1st Class Masters in Chemistry & Physics, with hundreds of hours experience in tutoring. Having had students from London to Sydney, Zurich to Singapore, and Geneve to Shenzen, I can rely on 4 years of experience and up-to-date knowledge of exam specifications to provide pupils with a tailored education. Why I Chose STEM Science is the future. STEM qualifications open the door to new career opportunities and could lead to a job in a decade which doesn't even exist today. My Approach to Tutoring Science The bigger picture should come before the details. Time spent trying to build on weak foundations is wasted; one is better served looking at the underlying science. A student can fill in any gaps later. An issue with classroom learning is the one-size-fits-all approach. A method for connecting the dots which works for one person might not for the next; teachers simply don't have time to discuss a concept from various angles. For me, a multi-faceted approach is the best way to build a concrete understanding. Learn how to go about tackling new problems. While there's no substitute for practice, the approach is key. Don't panic - new problems are far less daunting once broken into steps. Remember, exams generally ask you to 'jump through hoops' - there are only so many questions they can serve up! With some work, public examinations won't seem such a headache.
