I am an avid learner, which likely explains why I have the highest terminal degree. Thus, I use a developmental approach to tutoring. This approach focuses on identifying and affirming relative strengths and developing a plan to build upon relative weaknesses. My goal is to leave you feeling more empowered about content (e.g., science, math, graduate or medical school admissions, post-graduate work, and executive functioning skill building) after each session.

Hello, my name is Destiny and I graduated from Howard University. I majored in Psychology with a minor in Biology and Administration of Justice. One of the most important lessons I've learned from school is the value of asking for help. This can be the difference between simply memorizing some facts and truly understanding the material given to you. In many cases, learning in a traditional school setting is not effective and students should feel free to reach out for extra guidance. I strive to be that source of guidance for all students who need it. I believe that everyone learns in their own way and that the key to helping someone else lies in finding their unique style of learning. I take great pleasure in finding those styles and using them to enrich students minds. My main areas of expertise are Psychology and English. Ive been reading at a college level since middle school and scored 5s on both AP English tests. I also scored a 5 on the AP Psychology exam in addition to receiving As in all my psychology classes. I have extensive experience with essay writing, essay editing, and researching. Other subjects I can assist with include Algebra I and II, Geometry, and SAT/ACT prep. Outside of class, I like to stay busy with school activities and hobbies. I spend most of my time playing the trumpet in my schools marching band or studying. But when I have free time, I typically catch up with my shows or read.
As a graduate of Howard University with a Bachelor's in Sociology, I am passionate about guiding students through the complexities of college and university admissions, as well as mastering foundational subjects like elementary school math and phonics. With over 2 years of classroom experience, I prioritize creating a supportive learning environment where students feel empowered to ask questions and explore their potential. My teaching philosophy centers on building strong relationships with students, helping them develop confidence and a love for learning. I am committed to their academic success and find joy in witnessing their growth and achievements. In my free time, I enjoy reading and traveling to new places.
I am a New York native and a graduate of Virginia State University. I am a young, hardworking student that will probably be a student long past receiving my Ph.D! I have a hunger for education and will never stop learning. My experiences range from Criminal Justice and Sociology to ESL and U.S. History! I hope to share this passion for knowledge with anyone willing to listen.
I graduated from Howard University in 2011 where I received a Bachelor of Science in Biology. While at Howard University, I was selected to work as a Biology and General Chemistry tutor for all four years. After graduating, I worked for 3 years as a provider at a group family daycare center and oversaw the educational processes of the k-8 clients. I am passionate about the role that engaging supplemental education can play in building a student's self-confidence and in creating new opportunities for personal and professional success.Tutoring students is one of the most rewarding activities in which I have ever participated. Passing on my passions for knowledge and success is something I try to accomplish with each person with whom I work with. Every student deserves a tutor who will approach their needs in different and innovative ways. I accomplish this by getting to know my students as unique individuals. In this way, I can vary my teaching style to suit each student and stay open to adjusting as necessary. Teaching the sciences is one of my passions, as it is a mystery to many students but one of the largest gateways to success. Helping students with their math is also a challenging but rewarding task. With the right student-tutor relationship, I believe anything can be accomplished.My approach to teaching is that of confident comprehension of subjects, rather than reaching an answer. The student who understands why his or her incorrect answers are wrong will, in the long term, consistently arrive at the correct response. The confidence that students have in themselves plays a big role in learning, whereas fear and anxiety are a hindrance to learning and memory. This is a key player when it comes to exams as well. My main goal is thus always to help the student to learn how to confidently maneuver through problems and obstacles.I have experience tutoring elementary school, middle school, and high school students-- but I am also more than willing to tutor other age groups! I love to make learning fun, especially because schoolwork can often be frustrating and exhausting.
As a high energy personality who loves to help other people meet their goals,I takes pride in being a part of someone else's success story. I graduated from Howard University with a major in Economics and a minor in Math. Early in my academic career I had a desire to invigorate others with knowledge.I have tutored in various math subjects from middle school level to Pre-Calculus level. I gained this experience working as a middle school teacher's assistant ans a an on campus peer tutor. I believe in learning by doing. Have a student create a question through which they can find the answer builds another level of understanding and comprehension. being able to work through a problem is one thing, but true understanding is another.During the day, I work in corporate America. Outside of the office, I enjoy creating and learning about art. I also spend a portion of my free time giving back to the community that made me who I am today. I look forward helping students enjoy math as much as I always have.

In between time, I am also studying for the Certified Public Accountant Exam. I have traveled across the US and as far as China with my campus involvement. During my studies, I have also had the opportunity to tutor in various business areas such as: Accounting, Economics, Production Operations and Public Speaking. I have tutored in each subject one-on-one and in group settings. These are areas that I not only enjoy, but I am very passionate about. I love having the opportunity to give back to students, because I understand the importance education. I enjoy being interactive and talking through problems. It helps me to see what you know and where you need assistance. Outside of tutoring and school I enjoy watching television, shopping and working out.

I have over 25 years of experience in education. I graduated from Howard University with a Bachelors Degree in Psychology, before getting my teachers certification. I received my Masters of Education in School Leadership from Cambridge College and a Masters of Education in School Counseling from the University of West Alabama. I have worked in elementary, middle and high school as a teacher and school counselor. As an elementary school teacher, I specialized in the teaching of reading and language arts. My love and excitement for reading followed me into the classroom which allowed me to have great success with struggling readers. As a school counselor, I used bibliotherapy to help students see themselves in characters and learn strategies to overcome various obstacles. When I ran out of books with the topics needed, I wrote my own coping skills book for kids. I help students identifying their learning styles, study skills, and much more while understanding and addressing underlying social and emotional barriers to success.
I am an avid polyglot looking to share my love for languages by tutoring wonderful students. Languages are my passion and I speak 8 of them. I am a native French speaker and I have been tutoring for the past 5 years to private students and corporate clients. I grew up all over the world and lived in France, so you will learn an authentic French accent.I am a very patient teacher and I strive to understand the needs of my students.

You can expect a high energy class where I support my students to achieve their goals and guide them toward success.I am also a certified medical interpreter in French, so my knowledge of the French language is deep and extensive, being able to each all levels. Although I do not tutor sciences, I also have a Bachelor's in chemical engineering and an MBA in supply chain management. I am professional, self-determined and always focused on delivering the customer service possible. Additionally, I am reliable and a great communicator.I look forward to meeting you!
I received my Bachelor of Arts in English and Spanish from Howard University and worked as an educator and as a communications administrator for several years post college. During my career as a communications administrator, I enrolled at Massachusetts College of Art and Design in pursuance of my Fashion Design Certificate. My education from MassArt inspired me to become a wardrobe consultant and to found A Balanced Wardrobe LLC. Though I've transitioned from academia to business and fashion, I still rely heavily on my reading and writing skills. These skills transcend all professions, as they are fundamental to our ability to learn and to communicate effectively on paper and in-person. During my years in education, I engaged with many students who struggled in reading and writing, and typically, these same students struggled in other subjects; in math they struggled to read word problems and in science they struggled to write their lab results. Working with these students gave me first-hand experience at how to help students strengthen their comprehension without hurting their confidence. Over time, I found that patience, consistent positive reinforcement and persistent redirection are key, and it is these same techniques that I utilize with my Varsity Tutors students. Without reading and writing skills, I would have never been able to traverse so many different fields and discover my passion, and through tutoring, I hope to help my students achieve the same.

There are many wonderful views and thoughts on the benefits of education that spark inspiration and motivation. At this moment, the one I would like to share with you is from the late, critically acclaimed filmmaker Stanley Kubrick: "I think the big mistake in schools is trying to teach anything by using fear as the basic motivation. Fear of getting failing grades, fear of not staying with your class, etc. Interest can produce learning on a scale compared to fear as a nuclear explosion to a firecracker." As a proponent of formal and lifelong education, self-discovery, and self-expression, I believe in the exchange of ideas and evaluation of information to successfully choose one's path moving forward. Ignorance and misinformation get us nowhere and only hinder our progress and success. Perhaps the main reason I view education as a passport to personal success is that it allows people to find happiness and satisfaction within themselves instead of using external metrics to measure their accomplishments. This allows people to build confidence within themselves and chase their dreams and unleash their passions. With a background in journalism and education, I obtained degrees from Howard University in Washington, DC (Journalism) and Lamar University in Beaumont, Texas (Educational Technology Leadership). Since 2005, I have taught a variety of subjects at the middle school, high school, and college levels including English, Language Arts, Writing, English as a Second Language, and First-Year Experience: Education 1300. In addition, I have worked as an online editor and freelance writer, so I enjoy teaching anything that involves reading and writing. I have also passed TExES teacher certification in the state of Texas. Another aspect of teaching that I enjoy is meeting a variety of people, as diversity is important, and creating relationships by identifying what we have in common. I want to transform people's negative experiences with education by meeting them where they are and helping them chart a personal path to attain their goals and dreams. And when I'm not involved in education, you can find me making music, watching Netflix or Disney+, or plotting my next trip to an unknown destination. If you have ever viewed education as a "punitive" or "hurtful" process, I'd like to change that. Feel free to drop me a message or jump right in and give me a try. Looking forward to meeting and working with you.

I recently graduated from Howard University with a degree in chemical engineering. I'm working towards my PhD in biomedical engineering at Columbia University. I have been tutoring since I was in high school, and I really enjoy helping the people I tutor become more confident. I tutor mostly in math (Algebra through Calculus), and I like to coach students through problems until they are able to teach them back to me!

I originally hail from Chicago, IL, but I am currently a MD Candidate at the Medical College of Wisconsin. My previous academic achievements include a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology from Howard University followed by a Master of Science degree in Medical Physiology from Case Western Reserve University.Throughout my undergraduate and postgraduate career, I set aside time to teach as well as tutor basic biology, ecology, chemistry, math, reading and writing to students ranging from kindergarteners to high schoolers.As a tutor, I make sure my sessions are something the student will look forward to by trying to relate to each individual student on a personal level to ensure they feel comfortable asking questions if and when they may not understand a concept. I know how one can feel discouraged from their studies, but with the right preparation, study tools, and tutor, it can be enjoyable.Any concept I teach, I make sure to relate them to real life scenarios in a way that the student could understand and appreciate because learning and studying resonate well with any student when relatable in a familiar fashion.A typical introductory session with a student includes learning what type of learner the student is and their current methods for studying. I like to see what works for the student and what doesn't and how I can help improve those areas. My goal, as a tutor, is to encourage and equip students with the necessary tools to be successful so that one day they can pay it forward.Outside of work and studies, I like to dance, hang out with friends, surf pinterest and do DIY projects.I look forward to working with you!
Hi, I'm Carizma! I'm currently pursing my bachelor's degrees in biology and health education at Howard University and I have been a tutor for about 3 years now! I have found a passion in teaching students, and it is something that has become a very large piece of happiness in my life. I love having the ability to work with my students to reach their academic and personal goals, as well as being able to watch them learn to excel in their lives.
In my first year at Howard University, I found that my inclination towards the social sciences not entirely fulfilled. Although I am a proponent for the social sciences, it was important that I compliment this understanding with a major in the humanities. I decided to double major in Philosophy and Political Science, giving myself the breadth required to formally contemplate life and society. I needed philosophy to attain a grasp of personhood. This would allow me to reflect more deeply on the individual within structures that serve to hinder or enhance their life experience. In classes, I found myself pulling philosophical concepts and using them to analyze working political ideologies' efficacy in society.My studies alone have not made me the person I am. I am a social activist and created a nonprofit organization for a student-student mentoring program, the Urban Youth Alliance. As a leader of two programs pertaining to social justice (also being an Editor-in-Chief of on online magazine Watch that Negro), I have furthered my academic pursuits with hands-on experience. As director of UYA, a college coaching nonprofit organization for public high school students of color, I honed my skills as an administrator. I have proven successful in the design and implementation of many programs and similar to the goals held by Varsity Tutors and I understand the importance of mentorship within academic work.As a mentor and tutor, I want to emphasize my desire to coordinate my research with my creative writing. Like a thought experiment, prose can shed light on the realities of my suppositions. Not unlike how my favorite authors James Baldwin, Haruki Murakami explore the nuances of human life within their literature, I want to write novels that lend themselves to dialectical argumentation and answer profound questions through the narratives of characters that only exist on paper. In this way, I will support my research with prose to reach the broader population. I intend to become a professor who instructs their students to creatively engage with their passions. To begin this process, I will pursue a doctorate in philosophy immediately after attaining this scholarship.I am most interested in political theory and philosophy of the mind for the discovery of a quality life in the pursuit of happiness. I have been separating this interest into distinct parts to answer this question: how should society value happiness despite the diversity of identity and conflicting interests? Influenced by the Rawlsian theory of justice, I wrote a short story paralleling justice with happiness. The story examines a dystopian society that prioritizes the population's happiness over all other virtues. In this society, the government extends its powers to ensure happiness. It is the extreme conclusion to the extent of how political bodies can function as insurance of citizens' happiness. The protagonist and all other minors are raised separately from society and upon entering adulthood at eighteen years old are administered a psychological examination to determine their "happiness potential." If the results are unsatisfactory, they are prescribed mandatory pharmaceuticals to keep them content, an unideal end, but one that captures the extreme hypothesis.My most recent independent research is an evaluation of the necessary conditions for happiness, which I determine is forgetting one's emotional past, using an emotional state theory of happiness. The differing views of theories of happiness in the field today are external versus internal, gratification versus a psychological state. Although my current research seemingly focuses on only the psychological by using the emotional state theory, an individualistic theory, I recognize how outside experiences affect the emotional state. This creates a compound theory that acknowledges intersectional experiences.Still, the interaction between identity and happiness is ostensibly a psychological topic. Furthermore, sociological and psychological research has proven that people in society who suffer from multiple intersections of oppression are most likely to suffer from depression and other mental illnesses. My research becomes philosophical when I theorize a definition of happiness suitable to this reality and research to what extent societies can prioritize happiness knowing that one person's happiness can cause unhappiness for another. People have conflicting interests and with limited resources, it seems impossible to satisfy everyone. When transgender people are able to use whatever restroom with which they identify, to some extent their oppression is lessened, giving them a degree of contentment. Simultaneously, some devout Christian groups are staunchly against trans-rights and will be unsatisfied if this occurs. In a case like this, whose happiness is more important? Real world answers are necessary if we are to live in a content society. It is obvious that the world is obsessed with how to be happy. A plethora of self-help books discuss just this, but they rarely tackle how intersectional experiences affect psychological happiness. If real-world happiness is possible for all people within a given society, I will find how.
Hello! My name is Kathlyn Archibald-Drew. I am a Master's student at the London School of Economics, studying Local Economic Development. My undergraduate degree is from Howard University, where I earned a BA in Economics. I love when learning is hands-on, as much as it can be in a digital format.

Hi! My name is John, and I'm a dedicated English Language Arts tutor with over five years of experience. I have a deep love for both reading and teaching, and I get a lot of joy out of building relationships with students and supporting them to achieve their academic goals. A little bit about me: I graduated from Howard University in 2022 with a Bachelor's Degree in English, and I am currently an English Literature PhD candidate at UCLA, where I'm working on my dissertation. I developed a love for teaching while working as a tutor and instructor at UCLA, and I'm hoping to work as a teaching professor or a high school teacher once I finish my program. I can help students in any English related areas, including writing, reading comprehension, and AP test prep. I can assist students with coursework or design my own lesson plans to meet student needs. In my free time, you can usually find me reading in a coffee shop, hanging out with my friends, or skateboarding around Los Angeles.
I believe that fostering a genuine connection with students not only helps them learn technical skills but also ignites their passion for their chosen paths. In my teaching experiences from K-12 classrooms to college lectures I focus on guiding students to discover their true aspirations. Be creative. This approach empowers them to realize their potential and fosters a sense of ownership over their projects. I emphasize the importance of building relationships and exploring diverse opportunities. A little about me, I'm from Oakland, California and got my start assisting on music videos. From there, I got my first writers room gig script coordinating on several tv shows and miniseries. Then I was staffed on an HBO show and FBI:International. I've won two NAACP awards for my work as a script consultant on podcasts. Currently I'm teaching at DePaul while developing more ideas.

I graduated from Howard University with a Bachelor's in Psychology. I am currently working on a Master's at Montclair State University in a Counseling program with a concentration in Clinical Mental Health. I tutor elementary school and middle school level mathematics and ELA. My favorite subject to tutor is Math because the rules are easy to explain and breakdown. My teaching philosophy is to ensure that the student would be able to complete the assignment by themselves. Personally, I enjoy reading, drawing, and painting as hobbies.

I first became introduced to tutoring my junior year in college when I received the opportunity to work with students in a failing high school. We were tasked with getting the students SAT/ACT ready and subsequently apply for college. One of my proudest moments to date was receiving the news that all students from the program had applied to college.My tutoring experience has since moved on from to a more privatized setting but the reward has remained the same. Working students to build their confidence in and outside the classroom is an indescribable gift that I am fortunate enough to possess. My tutoring style of getting to know the student and parent and developing an action plan unique to the student has proven to be successful and appreciated in the past.I am recent graduate of Howard University, B.A. in Political Science, Magna Cum Laude. I have since been accepted into law school and intend on going in the fall.
My name is Joy Rhodes and I'm a freshman Psychology major at Howard University. School has always been a place of successful learning and growing curiosity for me. Though I've always performed well in my academics, I didn't develop a love for tutoring until my junior and senior year of high school. I'd always be the kid in class to help my peers work through a problem, but I never considered working one on one with other students until I was inducted into my high school's Math Honors Society. Through this, I was required to tutor and work with students in a variety of subjects including the following: Algebra 1, Basic Math, Reading and Writing, and Spanish. Seeing my students' eyes light up as they worked through an assignment that they didn't think they could solve brought me great joy. In addition to tutoring, I was a Math Senior Leader at my high school. I assisted in teaching Algebra 1 to a class of freshmen. This was very important to me because tutoring and teaching became less about getting the student to do their work, and more about the special bonds that I've built with them in their successful learning process. Outside of math, I've received my Illinois State Seal of Biliteracy in the Spanish Language. I've also been a section leader in my orchestra for the past 7 years. Being a section leader not only required me to work with violinists in mastering their pieces, I've also volunteered with children learning to play the violin, and teaching them basic music theory. All of these experiences are what have brought me here today. Not only do I love learning, I love working with those who have a desire to learn and helping them overcome their obstacles.
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.
