SPED teacher! Meet me @ the Library! I will even travel to you or have the experience online ! It is purely up to You !I am a graduate of Drexel University. I received my Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education K-4 and with a focus on Child development. Since graduation, I have tutored children looking to improve their reading, writing, comprehension, and vocabulary skills. While I tutor in K-3 . subjects like science (projects, assignments, tests), and social studies (tests, assignments, projects), I am most passionate about working with children who are beginning readers and are challenged with reading skills, English, phonics, and expressive writing (speeches, poetry, plays). In my experience helping struggling students prepare for tests, essays, reports, homework, projects and flowing with classwork, we always seem to have the most fun engaging with super fun and creative style of learning with hands on games and interactions one on one or small grouping. I am passionate about education, believing every child has a unique way of learning and intentionally deserves a creative approach to accomplish goals and concepts by building confidence, self-awareness, and oral communication, and I apply this method to all of my students.

Neuroscientist with a Master's degree in Neuroscience from Drexel University (+ BS Cell Biology, Villanova). I am passionate about sharing my knowledge and fostering a deep understanding of complex scientific concepts. My tutoring experience spans over 6 years, where I have successfully guided students in subjects such as AP Biology, premed coursework, Graduate/MD-level Biochemistry, and Graduate Cell/molec Biology, Pharmacology + Neuroscience coursework. I believe in creating a supportive learning environment that encourages curiosity and critical thinking, tailoring my approach to meet each student's unique needs. My background in both cellular biology and computational neuropharmacology allows me to connect theoretical concepts with practical applications, making learning engaging and relevant. I am motivated by the opportunity to help students achieve their academic goals and develop a genuine interest in science and computation/mathematics. See qyka.org for more information.

I have been tutoring for the past 6 years. I volunteered for a tutoring organization in college, and upon graduating worked for a tutoring company in my hometown.I graduated from the University of Pittsburgh in 2014 where I completed degrees in Chinese as well as Communications. Afterwards, I worked in a special education classroom for students who were deaf or hard of hearing. Following that I worked for Big Brothers Big Sisters for 2 years. I ran mentoring programs within many elementary and middle school public schools in the Pittsburgh area.I completed my Masters in Early Childhood Education (specifically PreK-4), in 2018. I currently am a Kindergarten teacher. Working with children is truly my passion. I have 21 wonderful 5/6 year old students.I still tutor out of school hours. I am always happy to go the extra mile and help with anything, not just the subjects where I specialize. If I don't know the answer to something I'm happy to do the research and figure it out. I'm also happy to adapt my lessons and methods to fit the student and their learning style.

I'm a senior Political Science major and Spanish minor at Drexel University. I will gradute in June 2024, my plans post grad are to take a gap year, get accepted into law and become an immigration attorney. I've attended Drexel University during 2021-2024 and Dickinson College in 2020-2021, so I'm familiar with college level ciriculum and the differences between university institutions; my goals are to tutor, create a comfortable environment to learn, and holistically prepare students for college if they would like this resource. As a student with a learning disability and ADD, I've gained confidence as well as knowledge from my tutors and I would like to provide this now to other students. My strongest subjects are American legal systems, political science, global studies, history, intermediate or conversational Spanish (reading, writing, talking), sociology, anthropology and social sciences. My strongest skills are reading, writing, editing papers/essays, synthesizing information so it can be easily processed, and providing study sheets from notes and annotated academic articles to supplement learning resources. I can incorporate all of my skills based on how the student learns, I will educate students very integratively and based on what works specifically for them.

I recently graduated from Drexel University in June 2014 with a Bachelor's of Arts in English and a Bachelor's of Science in Nutrition and Food Sciences. Teaching was a core value reflected in the curriculum for both of my undergraduate majors. As a nutrition major, I was afforded the opportunity to teach nutrition education classes in underserved neighborhoods and elementary schools. As an English major, I took pride in helping fellow students and aspiring writers to refine their thoughts and ideas in essays and creative compositions alike. In my current position as a laboratory technician in a university setting, I work directly with students in a lab setting on a daily basis. I have worked as a teaching assistant for university-level microbiology courses and I also have expansive experience in writing, literary analysis, and reading comprehension, as I have composed original research in English literature, peer reviewed many of my colleagues' papers, and have served as an editorial intern for a published literary journal and as a weekly arts journalist for a local online publication.Since graduating from college and starting my primary occupation as a lab technician, I found that I have less opportunities to help students and to improve their writing and analytical reading skills, which is a profound passion of mine. Tutoring students in English literature and composition enables me to keep doing something that I love to do. In my spare time, I also enjoy painting, learning computer programming, baking, and reading anything and everything that I can.

I am a graduate of Providence College with a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology. Upon graduation, I worked in hospital administration until beginning my pursuit of a Master of Science in Medical Science through the Drexel University College of Medicine. I have been tutoring middle school, high school and college students in Chicago through Varsity Tutors since November 2014. My own passion for math and science and my academic history of them has resulted in a focus in tutoring within these subjects. Of these, my favorite topics to tutor are Algebra and Chemistry, as they both have discernible patterns within the material which leads to a better understanding as one builds new topics on previous ones. I have found that students have the most success in first reviewing basic concepts to assess and address where they are having difficulty, followed by continuous problem-solving to reinforce the concepts and strategies until they become second nature. Like the subjects that I teach, I believe that education is an ongoing and ever-growing component that is necessary for a happy and fulfilling life, and that there is always something new to learn each and every day. In my spare time, I like to exercise, volunteer, play basketball, go snowboarding, watch sports (mainly football and soccer) or play video games.

I'm an experienced tutor with a Bachelor's in Biology and 3 years teaching experience, and I love helping students succeed in subjects like Biology, Chemistry, Anatomy, and Math. Being fluent in both English andSpanish and having lived 5 years in Spain, I also enjoy teaching Spanish and ESL. I've worked with students of all ages and levels, and I'm excited to bring my passion for teaching to your child. I'm all about creating a positive, personalized learning experience that helps students feel confident and reach their goals!

I am originally a Texas native. I graduated from Texas Tech University with a B.S. in Hospital Business and a minor in French and Microbiology. During college, I worked with the athletic department as a general and subject tutor. My years of experience as a tutor, as well as my own experience as a student, have allowed me to acquire ample and diverse learning and studying techniques. I am currently pursuing a Masters in Science at Drexel University as a I work on applying to medical school. I am fluent in Spanish and French (thus enjoy tutoring both) but definitely have experience tutoring science and business courses as well.I am an avid learner and consider education an invaluable tool that everyone should be permitted to have. In college, I volunteered in an underrepresented community and continuously tried to inspire high school students to become leaders and pursue their goals. I also volunteered with Habitat for Humanity and really enjoyed getting on rooftops and learning how to use power tools.

I am a third year at Drexel University majoring in chemical engineering with a minor in communications concentrating in science and technical writing. I enjoy activities that allow me to grow as well as help others, which is why I love tutoring math and French. Having family in France, tutoring French helps me practice for when I visit as well as create a foundation and better understanding for my students. I like to approach everything in life with multiple perspectives because it is the best way to grow and understand. I try to bring this way of thinking to my students because there are so many different ways to get to the same answer. In my spare time, I like to sew, read and write, and attend concerts.

I received a Bachelors of Arts in Biology and a minor in Public Health from Temple University in 2010. In May of this year, I received a Masters Degree in Biological Sciences from Drexel University. During my time at Drexel University, I worked as a teaching assistant for a graduate level Anatomy course for a year. This included assisting students with cadaver dissections in gross lab, and tutoring students for the didactic portion of the course. Anatomy is not only my favorite course to tutor in, but also my favorite subject in biology. I find I never get bored teaching Anatomy, because even though we all have similar basic anatomical structures, no two bodies are alike. Although I am very passionate about learning, I make sure all my students have fun. During a typical tutoring session, I try to incorporate videos, textbooks, and models to help the student stay engaged. I make my sessions interactive in hopes of creating an environment where students can learn the material in a style that is most effective for them. In addition to Anatomy, I also tutor Physiology, Biology, General Chemistry, Physics, and elementary math. When I am not working as a tutor I love to travel, play music, and spend time with my friends.

I am an elementary school teacher and reading specialist who loves helping my students find joy and empowerment through reading. Reading is the key to unlocking knowledge across subjects, including math and science, which I also have experience in and enjoy teaching.

My philosophy for teaching is strongly supported by my belief that all students deserve access to quality education. Not all students come from the same background, thus I strive to create an all accepting classroom environment that meets each students' specific needs. I make sure to meet all my students where they are, whatever level that may be, and help build them up to surpass their expectations and achieve their goals.I prefer to have a wide net of teaching methods geared towards addressing different learning styles, because I feel it is important to design my methods in a way that collectively supports my students' distinct learning processes. My goal is to provide students with the opportunity to learn in the way that fits best for them. I believe students should be able to learn in a stress-free environment and at a pace that does not impose unnecessary pressure on their learning process.Through my extended experience as an educator, I have always made it a personal goal to make the learning process for my students enjoyable and engaging. I am a very quirky, positive, and outgoing person which translates over to how I connect with my students. It is of utmost importance to me that my students smile and laugh in my classroom and genuinely want to come to class. I will always go above and beyond for my students, as it is my passion to ensure that they all have a progressive educational experience that leads them on toward future success.

I am a senior at Drexel University studying Biology with a minor in Bioinformatics. I currently work as a Clinical Research Coordinator at Penn Medicine and plan to get into clinical research full time once I graduate in March 2022. I eventually want to go to Medical School. At Drexel, I work as a Special Needs Tutor and Teaching Assistant. I enjoy tutoring Biology, SAT test prep (Reading, Writing & Biology), and middle school courses. During my tutoring sessions, I explain concepts step by step and follow this with practice questions; however, I like to tailor this tutoring style according to my student's needs. Most importantly, I ensure that the student has a good grasp of foundational concepts so that they are confident enough to tackle more complex problems in the subject.

I am a 2015 graduate of Drexel University where I obtained a master of science in neuroscience, but I previously obtained a bachelor of arts in biology, minor in chemistry, at Arcadia University in 2011. I am an experienced tutor in the life sciences with 3 years of undergraduate biology and chemistry tutoring and 2 years of graduate biochemistry and neuroscience tutoring. I generally focus my tutoring on biology, particularly biochemistry, but I enjoy tutoring cellular biology as well. When working with students, I prefer to keep an encouraging and upbeat atmosphere, working alongside students to identify issues in learning and developing a plan to address these problems as a team. Having been a biology student, I understand that it is a challenging subject for many, and I love to not only share my passion but also share encouragement based on personal experience. In addition to my interests in biology and neuroscience, I have a wide range of hobbies including writing (both scientific and fiction), art and drawing, piano, video games, and martial arts.

I have a background in Biomedical and Mechanical Engineering, mainly with a concentration in tissue biomechanics for my work. After my education, I have been involved primarily in research and science work, mainly focused on my career; I am, at this point, taking a break from being in the lab. I desire to break down complex subjects into simple concepts essential in any field. As we progress to complex topics, we forget the simple concepts we learn in high school/college. My experiences as a TA were memorable and taught me about explaining subjects and concepts. I strongly believe in knowing the concepts and fundamentals while ensuring the future is bright and prosperous. We are in a global society where quality education is paramount. I want to improve on the fundamentals of students, which can be helpful for all. For my leisure time, I enjoy college sports, DC and Marvel movies, and leisure reading!

I am currently working as a Medical Assistant for a dermatologist. I am in the process of applying to medical school. I was a Biology major in college. I love working with people. I hope to be a good tutor and to help my students achieve their goals! I am always open to feedback and suggestions on how to be a better tutor.

I specialize in elementary, middle school, and high school education, working as an afterschool educator for over five years in a pre-K to 8th-grade elementary school. I also have experience tutoring high schoolers in English and history for over 3 years. I have implemented social and emotional developmental programs in various public schools in my area, focusing on creating a positive academic experience for children who were struggling in various subjects.I have four years of experience tutoring psychology for undergraduate students and working as a TA for 3 years for various psychology courses. I received my bachelor's degree in psychology from Drexel University and am currently completing a second degree in nursing.I look forward to helping you throughout your academics!

I love helping students because I want to give back what I have learned and am learning to others. I was accepted into Drexel University on a full ride scholarship, and I graduated high school as Valedictorian. I have always jumped at the opportunity to teach my friends grade and high school material, and I have been an official tutor for a little over a year now. I adore learning, and teaching is an aspect of learning I am incredibly passionate about.

Hello I am Peter Campion. I studied education in Temple's graduate program, and I have a bachelor of science in physics from Drexel University. I taught high schoolclasses of chemistry, biology, physical science, and earth space science in Northeast Philadelphia. I have also worked on a project to create a code that generates animations of simulated galactic dynamics. More recently, I have co-authored my second scholarly article concerning a dark matter search apparatus engineered with PICO international collaboration.

I graduated from Drexel University with a Bachelors in Biomedical Engineering and an MD. I've also done some masters courses in Biomed at Johns Hopkins and taught people from grade school to fellow physicians. I believe that the best knowledge comes from deep understanding of fundamental principles and building things up from there. I lean heavy towards science but am very appreciative of the humanities subjects and am happy to help students with either.

I graduated with a B.A. in Biology, and have recently obtained an M.S. in Biomedical Sciences. While pursuing my Masters, I tutored graduate students in the medical college and obtained my Level 1 CRLA certification. I am currently applying to medical school while working in medical research. In my free time, I enjoy baking, cooking, taking dance classes at the gym, and reading.

I am a structural bridge engineer currently working for a company in Boston. I have always had an interest in teaching either Math or Science but chose a different career path. I keep my passion for teaching and helping others in the subjects I am interested in through tutoring; it is something I thoroughly enjoy doing while helping students excel and achieve their potential in areas they might be struggling in. I have been tutoring in the greater Boston area for the last nine years and have found it rewarding watching students succeed in areas they didn't think they could; moreover, I have patient step by step teaching style that has seemed to work well with a variety of students.

Hi, I'm James. I'm a cybersecurity professional, former university instructor, and longtime competitive chess player who enjoys helping students grow in both technical and strategic thinking skills. I previously taught cybersecurity at Rice University and have mentored students and professionals in IT, problem-solving, and analytical thinking. I also bring years of experience in tournament chess, where I trained under former Women's World Chess Champion Alexandra Kosteniuk and competed in state and collegiate championships. My teaching style is patient, structured, and encouraging. Whether we are working on a computer science concept, preparing for a certification, or improving chess fundamentals, I focus on breaking complex ideas into clear steps and helping students understand the reasoning behind what they are learning. In chess lessons, that means learning how to think through positions and build good habits, not just memorizing moves. In technology subjects, it means understanding how systems work together rather than just following instructions. I work with students of different ages and experience levels, and I tailor each session to the student's goals and learning style. My aim is always the same: to help students build confidence, develop strong thinking skills, and leave each session feeling more capable than when they started.

As an Educator, it is my responsibility to ensure that my students receive a quality education in a safe environment. My students will receive quality support services from me. My education includes a Bachelor of History from Temple University and a Master's Degree in Teaching, Learning and Curriculum from Drexel University.

Physics graduate & experienced tutor specializing in STEM. Taught introductory physics labs, Python for physics, and K12 outreach demos. I focus on building confidence through clarity, patience, and real-world connections. Passionate about making science engaging and accessible for all learners. Let's unlock your potential together!

I firmly believe that learning should be enjoyable for students. At times, it will be challenging and boring, but the overall process ought to be somewhat exciting and satisfying. Not all educators have the ability to create an enjoyable learning environment this could be due to large class sizes, limited class time, lack of resources, or inadequate training. As a tutor, I use the unique opportunities of one-on-one and small group sessions to form personal connections with students, in an effort to discover what sort of experience they need to enjoy learning the material. I think that students need to be comfortable in their learning environment so they can make mistakes and ask for help, when necessary. I tutor primarily biology and chemistry at the high school and undergraduate levels, as well as admissions exams, such as the ACT, the GRE, and the MCAT. My true passion is at the interface of biology and chemistry in the areas of biochemistry and molecular biology. I find it fascinating to learn about how fundamental concepts of chemistry allow biological organisms to function effectively. During my undergraduate career, I worked as a teaching assistant in a lower-level animal anatomy and physiology course and in an upper-level biochemistry course. Furthermore, I have mentored underclassmen by helping them through courses that I took in previous years. I have earned a B.S. in Molecular Biology from Messiah College and I am working towards a Ph.D. in Biochemistry at Drexel University. When I am not lost in the world of academia, I enjoy spending time in nature, reading science-fiction books, and cooking plant-based foods.

I have experience with working with high school and community college student on both coasts. I worked with Johns Hopkins for Center for Talented Youth at the Princeton University field site as a TA for their Science, Technology, and Public Policy. I found I really enjoy teaching high school students.As an instructor, I am interested in a hands-off, yet present in the middle of the process approach. For writing, this means I don't write your paper for you, and you are the first one to edit your papers. I want to teach you how to approach your writing and editing, rather than doing it for you.If you are a high school student looking to go to college and want to blow away the admissions committee, start NOW on developing your writing skills. Writing is a fundamental skill wherever you think of going professionally.My degrees are in interdisciplinary social science and can help with tackling anthropology and sociology.

Hello everyone! A little bit about myself, I am a recent graduate from Drexel U with a degree in Accounting and Finance. I am available for ACT tutoring as well as Accounting and Finance help!

Writing doesn't have to feel intimidating. I tutor with the belief that every student can become a stronger writer with the right tools, encouragement, and a clear process. Whether you're starting from a blank page or revising a draft, I'll help you organize your ideas, strengthen your message, and edit with purpose without losing your voice. I work with students on school essays, argument writing, literary analysis, and personal statements. You can expect a calm, supportive session where we break the work into steps, practice strategies you can reuse, and build confidence through consistent wins.

Hello, my name is Lena! I graduated from Tufts University in 2017 with a BS in Biology, and I just completed my MS of Biomedical Studies at Drexel University. In my master's program, I was a peer tutor for graduate level sciences, such as anatomy, physiology, and biochemistry. In August, I will be starting medical school to pursue my dream of being a physician. In the meantime, I am here to help with pre-med coursework, MCAT prep, and many other classes. I am frequently available for online tutoring.

I am a graduate of Drexel University with a Bachelor Degree in Mechanical Engineering. I retired in October 2017 after 44 years of professional engineering experience. Math has always been one of my favorite subjects. In the past I have had opportunities to teach others on an informal basis. I relish the opportunity to work with others who want to improve their skills. Anyone can do well in math once they develop some confidence in their ability. Being able to solve problems that may have seemed impossible can be an exhilarating experience. Other personal hobbies include working on computers, watching movies and listening to music.

Hi! My name is Erin. I graduated first in my class from Drexel University in 2011 with a BS in Mathematics. I'd love to help you with whatever topic in math is frustrating you!

My name is Kimanthi Gicovi and I am currently a first-year medical school student. Prior to med school, I graduated from Duke University with a Bachelor's degree in Biomedical Engineering and received my Master's degree in Biomedical Studies from Drexel College of Medicine. I have over 6 years of experience tutoring individual students and also worked as a teaching assistant at the graduate school level. I am passionate about teaching and working with students. I have experience working with high school, college and graduate students and have a subject expertise that include Biology, Physics, Math, Physiology, Biochemistry.My approach to tutoring is focused on helping students build a strong foundational understanding of concepts, strengthening their ability to critically think and apply their knowledge.In my personal time, I enjoy traveling, cooking and exploring 3D printing as a hobby.

I started as a pre-med major at Pomona College. However, the academic success I achieved in high school did not translate I had to relearn how to approach academics. A large influence on my change was my experience with Building Leaders on Campus (BLOC), an organization predominantly comprised of men of color to develop our leadership potential. This organization developed me as a leader and gave me a foundation for understanding what it takes to lead a team. I started this organization as a freshman, and devoted a large amount of my time to it by fundraising, organizing diversity-centered events and developing it into a self-sustaining entity that comprises at least thirty students every year. This was my first opportunity to act as a conduit helping people in my community learn more about taking care of themselves. I helped build a safe space for students who felt marginalized and silenced. Like the way I wanted to help people in my community with their health issues. It gave me the leadership and interpersonal skills needed to become a physician.I entered a rigorous graduate program to become a more competitive applicant. While in school I volunteered at the Ronald McDonald house also while working 20 hours a week as a server and 20-30 hours a week performing research. This taught me how manage my time well like how I would need to in medical school. Volunteering at the Ronald McDonald House allows me to experience numerous disparities firsthand and to build a personal connection with families whose child is undergoing long term care. This is the difference between treating the symptoms and considering the factors that may cause them like ethnicity, environment, and socioeconomic status. This work I can bridge the gap between treating a patient and treating the person. It allows me to see a side of healthcare that I feel is missed.Pomona's interdisciplinary approach gave me the opportunity to learn about the sociological determinants of health, about how disconnects between doctors and their patients are anything but rare, and about how these disconnects can be improved through cultural competency. This mixed with the leadership skills I gained with BLOC fueled my desire to become a physician. By combining these skills with the understanding that I gained from my coursework of the sociological structures that influence health outcomes in those same communities, I will be a leader in my community who will educate others. I want to communicate between the unaware and the informed to decrease these disconnects in my future community.In the future, I would like to work in a hospital that caters to low socioeconomic populations, much like Ben Taub hospital, and volunteer at free clinics. I would like to influence medicine so that I will be able to cater to communities like my own and improve health outcomes among minorities. I am drawn to primary care because it will allow me to bridge disconnects between underserved communities, patients, like Guillermo, and their doctors. I am confident that my ability to communicate empathetically with people from various backgrounds will be beneficial in an intensive care setting. I am excited to dedicate myself to a career as a physician serving the underserved, eagerly awaiting the opportunities and challenges ahead.

I fully believe that building strong relationships with my students and their families is what leads to success. I have worked in the behavior field for 20 years and have taught emotional support for 15 years. The most important thing to me is that my students feel valued and loved when they come to school. Personally, I find that they work harder and put effort in when they feel respected and have someone to listen to them.

I love Biology, It is not hard. I enjoy helping my students understand that biology is life. I do this by taking my time to break everything down and focus on the foundations. I'm also a student, so if i do not know something; I make it my top priority to learn about it. :)

I an undergraduate Biology major at Drexel University. I am in the 8-year medical program at Drexel and plan on attending medical school in the near future. I am a straight-A student with a current GPA of 4.0.Some of my tutoring subject areas include algebra, psychology, biology, java, and elementary mathematics.I hope to spread the love of education to all who need tutoring so they can achieve their professional goals in the future.

I am looking to help students understand and learn whatever materials they are having trouble with. I have tutored for roughly 2 years while I was in high school. I'm currently in my third year of studying Biomedical Engineering at Drexel University. I would like to aid students in any way possible.
