My previous students have told me that I have gotten them across the line when they didn't think they could! I know what the exam is looking for and I know how to pass it. My process of teaching is methodical in order to help you pass your exam. Looking forward to a productive, exam-oriented session with you.

I am a current Physician Assistant student at Howard University with a strong passion for education and mentorship. Throughout my academic journey, I have developed the ability to break down complex concepts into clear, understandable lessons tailored to each student's learning style. My background in the health sciences has strengthened my skills in critical thinking, communication, organization, and problem-solving. As someone who learned English as a second language after immigrating to the United States, I understand that every student learns differently and may face unique academic challenges. This experience has made me a patient, encouraging, and adaptable educator who values building confidence alongside academic success. I enjoy helping students achieve their goals, whether that means mastering difficult coursework, improving study habits, preparing for exams, or gaining confidence in their abilities. My goal as a tutor is to create a supportive learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions, developing independent learning skills, and reaching their full potential.
Hi there! My name is Adrian Gorzitze-Maxey, and I am passionate about fostering academic success in students through engaging and personalized tutoring. I have over 5 years of clinical experience as a Physician Assistant including primary care, hospital medicine, and urgent care experience. I hold both a Master's degree in Physician Assistant Studies and a Bachelor's in Biology from Ohio Dominican University. My degrees in addition to my educational, clinical, and scientific experience make me well suited for tutoring high school and college biology, chemistry, and preparation for the PANCE exam among other Physician Assistant exams and other medical board exams. I have also passed the Irish Physician Associate National Examination (IPANE) in July, 2025 which is based on the PANCE and United Kingdom Physician Associate National Examination. My teaching philosophy emphasizes active listening and interactive discussions, allowing students to discover their strengths and areas for growth. As the Education Chair for the Ohio Association of Physician Assistants, I develop educational programs and resources, further enhancing my ability to mentor students effectively. I also precept students in clinical settings, where I enjoy guiding them through practical applications of their knowledge. In my free time, I delve into scientific literature and engage in discussions about advancements in healthcare, which fuels my enthusiasm for education and mentoring.
As a dedicated tutor with a Master's degree in Physician Assistant Studies from South University, I understand the challenges students face, especially during PANCE prep. My approach is centered around breaking down intricate concepts into manageable parts, ensuring that students feel equipped and confident in their abilities. I am passionate about fostering a supportive learning environment where each student can thrive, and I take pride in tailoring my methods to meet individual needs. My goal is to empower students to achieve their academic aspirations while cultivating a love for learning.
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 electronics, playing Pokemon, or picking at my guitar.
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 subjects, I take a creative, inquiry-based and learner-centered approach, designing opportunities for each unique individual to meet their learning goals.
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 at Columbia University in my department and also have tutored graduate students and undergraduates privately as well. My primary areas of tutoring are math and statistics coursework in addition to math sections on standardized tests such as the GRE and GMAT. I am very passionate about helping students feel more confident and excited about math. In my spare time, I enjoy running, playing piano, and spending time with friends and family.
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 towards passing the US Citizenship Exam and taught English in India, where I lived for six months. Whenever I work with a student I personalize the lessons to fit their particular learning style, since I know every student is unique and having the right fit can make all the difference in making learning fun and effective. My strengths are tutoring the social sciences and humanities, as well as making math and standardized tests approachable to students that normally don't like those subjects. In my spare time I like traveling, spending time in the outdoors (climbing & backpacking), meditation, and playing soccer. Next fall I will be beginning my PhD in Education at Harvard University.
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 tutor for both Math and Spanish programs in high school and enjoyed the strides I made with students. I am willing to tutor any subject I have a background in, but am strong in mathematics, the sciences, Spanish, history, writing, and ACT prep. I enjoy teaching mathematics most due to the joy I can see in children once they master a topic and can answer even pointed questions meant to stump them, and maybe even put their knowledge to real world use. As a tutor, I like to give a strong foundation to orient my student, and then gradually grant them more freedom and independence until they can feel themselves grasp the concept, pointing out pitfalls or common errors along the way; teachers who used these methods on me always left the most lasting impressions. Outside of my studies, I really enjoy listening to music, both old favorites and new interests, reading classics, and gaming/playing basketball with my friends.
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 my Masters in Mild to Moderate Disabilities from Simmons College. I have worked extensively with students with a range of abilities, including students with specific learning disabilities, emotional impairments, dyslexia, and ADHD. My teaching experience has given me a deep understanding of the knowledge and habits essential to academic success and has given me the opportunity to hone a variety of strategies that ensure students at each level can achieve their academic goals. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, my favorite ones are Reading, Elementary/Middle School Math, History, and Test Prep. In my experience, tutoring is the most rewarding when a student has that "aha!" moment and achieves a new level of understanding and confidence in his/her abilities. I am a firm believer in the transformative power of education, and I see my role to be that of a facilitator and coach who is there to help the student reach his/her goals through individualized support and rigorous practice. In my free time, I enjoy reading, running, practicing my Spanish, and discovering new music. I am also an avid traveler and just got back from a 3 month trip to South America. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you!
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 Medicine.
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 describe my tutoring style as one that adapts to each students' needs. For example, I have always tried to frame questions in a different way so that the student can better understand the question. Some students need visual representations of numbers and systems to understand them, and others benefit more by understanding the concepts behind each formula. I prefer to tutor in math and physics, and especially with real world application problems. I hope to help students improve their standardized test scores and their understanding of the math and sciences so that they can achieve their academic goals!
