Greetings! I am an attorney / Sociology instructor who has a passion and love for both subjects. I attained my M.S. in Applied Sociology in 2006 and began teaching at Collin College the same year. I just finished my 15th year with the school as a part-time adjunct professor and I look forward to year 16! I went to law school later than the traditional student, but I was in a job that brought me no joy or sense of accomplishment, and I wanted something more fulfilling than a paycheck, so I went to law school at age 37. I was fortunate to score well on the LSAT and get a partial scholarship to SMU Dedman School of Law. I received my J.D. two months after my 40th birthday and have been practicing for 8 years. It has been the best 8 years of my life! I currently have my own practice that focuses on CPS, mental health, and juvenile cases, but also am of counsel with a mid-size law firm as their Estate Planning and Probate attorney. I really enjoy staying busy and working with new attorneys and mentoring law school students. I think tutoring is a perfect extension of all the things I love about my job and life and I hope I can help students who are struggling with the materials so they can be successful in their academic and professional lives. I look forward to working with you!

I am a graduate student studying Clinical Psychology, with a passion for helping others.I taught English abroad in china for 5 months, as well as helped special need kiddos for a school semester.I graduated with honors from my undergraduate institution with a degree in Psychology, and minors in History and Chinese.Whenever I teach students, I try to focus first on having fun and learning to love the material, and then on accuracy.

My mission here is to not just teach but empower and motivate students to reach their full potential. I took a plethora of STEM courses in college and understand that the assistance of others in these courses is essential to becoming successful throughout ones academic career. My main strengths are Mathematics, Physics and Economics

I am a graduate of Southern Methodist University. I received my Bachelor of Fine Arts in Theatre Studies, with a focus on acting and directing. Since beginning high school, I have spent much of my extracurricular and summer time tutoring, mentoring, and counseling students elementary though high school age. While a tutor a fair amount of subjects, I sincerely enjoy exploring English, Literature, and French. I love the English and Literatue because both subjects connect deeply to my love for theatre, and I love French because I have lived in France twice; once when I was 7 in Paris, and again when I was 16 in the Nord Pas-de-Calais region. I would say my teaching style depends directly on the student, but generally, I love acting like I'm a student too and find fun ways to address the issues they're facing in practical ways. I always try to get my students to appreciate the skills they develop by showing them how they're useful in everyday life. When I'm not tutoring, I enjoy trying new restaurants, going for a swim, practicing my singing, and going to acting class.

I graduated from Clemson University with a BS in Economics. I also have an MBA in Finance from Southern Methodist University. I'm currently working towards an MS in Quantitative Finance and Economics from Texas State University. I also work as a Quantitative Analyst at a fixed income investment firm. In my previous jobs, I was an underwriter in the insurance industry and before that I was an Infantry Officer in the United States Marine Corps. I enjoy teaching and helping students understand their academic subjects.

I have over thirty years experience as a mechanical design engineer, engineering analyst, and engineering manager in the aerospace, semiconductor equipment, and automated electronic test equipment industries.I also have over fifteen years teaching engineering courses at the community college and university levels.I am looking forward to helping you with your skills development as you prepare for your career goals.

I am a state certified music educator with 30 years of experience in the public-school setting. I earned a Bachelor of Science in Music Education-emphasis in Piano and Voice (Texas Southern University-Houston, TX), a Master of Liberal Arts (University of St. Thomas-Houston, TX) and a Master of Divinity (Perkins School of Theology at Southern Methodist University-Dallas, TX).In addition to teaching general music, I have been a middle and high school choir director, a private piano and voice instructor and a church choir director and musician. During my time in all positions, I have created effective age-appropriate teaching tools and lessons based on state guidelines and employer expectations.I am highly motivated by my strong desire to create an exceptional musical experience for children and adults. In my approach to private instruction, I am always intersted in learning as much as possible about the intellectual needs, the personal motivation and the musical potential of my students. This knowledge allows me to create a specialized program for each student that will ensure success.While much of my time has been spent educating others and developing my musical skills and spiritual life, I have not been alone on this journey. I share space in Texas with my husband of 24 years, our two college-aged children and two very demanding felines.

Helping fill the pedagogical gaps and providing individual attention are imperative to helping a student achieve academically.

I am a retired elementary school teacher. I have a Masters Degree in Reading and Writing from Southern Methodist University. During the last 15 years teaching, I was a Dyslexia Specialist. I have been extensively trained in the Reading by Design from Region 4 and Neuhaus' Basic Language Skills. I taught intervention groups while in a school setting. I also have previously tutored students afterschool in person and online. A part of my teaching experience involved training my colleagues in the areas of reading and writing to assist them in becoming highly qualified educators. I am a lifelong learner. I love learning new things and view failure as a teacher. It is the things that we struggle with that makes us grow. Anyone can learn from their failures with a growth mindset.

I am currently entering my fourth year at Southern Methodist University where I am studying to attain a Bachelor of Science in Economics and a minor in Spanish. I have learned from professors who are professionals in their fields and many of which have had great impacts on the field of Economics. I spent the summer of 2014 living with a Spanish family in Madrid and taking classes as part of SMU's Advanced Spanish program in Madrid. I tutor a wide range of Math levels as well as Economics and Spanish. Through my experience as a student who used tutors in the past, I learned that the key to strengthening one's abilities in any subject is through practice and repetition. For this reason, my lessons emphasize the need for the students to engage themselves in order to take what they have learned in school, in the tutoring sessions, and on their own to successfully strengthen their knowledge. This will be accomplished through a lot of practice (problems, questions, grammar, vocabulary, etc) with guidance from me. In my free time, I enjoy watching and playing sports, cooking, traveling, reading, and yoga.

I'm working towards a B.S. in Computer Science and Mathematics at Southern Methodist University (SMU) in Dallas. I've been tutoring since Summer 2017 when I was a wee junior in Seven Lakes High School (Katy, TX). I've tutored students in Elementary/Middle School math, Algebra, Precalculus, Chemistry, SAT Math -- I have loved every bit of it! Separate from official tutoring, I have strong experience in working with others in Computer Science (AP Classes, Java, C++, Python, JavaScript, and HTML/CSS). I believe that the secret to quality tutoring lies in challenging students' foundations. Break it down and restructure it; explore the "why" behind the procedures that teachers teach us in STEM classes every day. I ask students a lot of questions, working to make them more confident in their knowledge and become wizards in problem solving and knowledge application. Outside of tutoring, you can catch me creating websites, drawing, playing Trombone, running, playing video games, or watching YouTube.

I am an avid learner and passionate advocate for the social sciences, I have always believed that understanding our world is essential for personal growth and civic engagement. My journey in social studies has been shaped by both academic pursuits and real-world experiences, which I am eager to share with students through tutoring. My academic background includes a degree in Secondary Education with a focus in Social Studies, where I explored diverse cultures, political systems, and historical events that have shaped our society. I have always been fascinated by the interconnectedness of human experiences and the lessons we can draw from the past. This curiosity has motivated me to engage deeply with topics ranging from economics and geography to sociology and government. I have taught many social studies courses including, law studies, US History, AP Macro, Government, Economics, Personal Finance and more. It is my duty as an educator to mold students into not only a stellar student but also an active and well informed citizen.

With over two years of tutoring experience, I have worked with many different types of students, from elementary to college graduates, from students with learning disabilities to those who make straight A's. Having earned a Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering (SMU) and a Master's Degree in Biochemistry (CCNY), I specialize in the various math and science subjects. In addition to complete mastery of the respective subject at hand, my tutoring experiences also show that listening, patience, and good communication are key for good tutoring sessions.

I have a Bachelor of Arts from Southern Methodist University. My major is World Languages French and Spanish and my minor is Economics. My graduating GPA was 3.67 and I am a member of several honor societies. I participated in the SMU study abroad program, and previously obtained an Associate of Arts in Teaching Degree in Foreign Languages with a GPA of 4.0.I also have over a year experience tutoring high school students in AVID program; moreover I was an intern for the French American Chamber of Commerce. I did my minor in Economics, which is the reason why I had to take many calculus courses and advanced math classes.I was born in Colombia, therefore my first language is Spanish; also I had the opportunity to study abroad in Paris while I was doing my undergrad career.I believe each student has the potential to master new concepts with the right approach and I will love to help you achieve your goals!!!

I am a Senior at Southern Methodist University pursuing a double major in Finance and Economics with a specialization in Alternative Asset Management with a GPA of 3.93. I am from Columbia, Missouri and am the middle child of three. I have a little sister who is 16, and I have an older brother who is 28.When I graduate I have accepted an offer to work as an Investment Banking Analyst with Houlihan Lokey in their Dallas office.

Passionate educator specializing in teaching ESL, Spanish as a Foreign Language, and English Composition. Over six years of experience teaching a wide range of students in a variety of settings including K-12, university, private tutoring, and professional development. Committed to student-centered teaching methods and developing differentiated instruction.

I am passionate about the subject of History and, more importantly, working with students to not only understand the amazing stories, resonating themes and key events but also how studying History helps to develop communication and critical analysis skills - both of which are more in demand than ever in the professional and academic worlds.

I hold a bachelor's and master's in art history, with a concentration in early modern European art. I attended THE Ohio State University for my undergraduate degree, and attended Southern Methodist University for my master's. During my time as a master's student, I was a teaching assistant to four different undergraduate art history courses, and spent a significant amount of time teaching, grading, and holding office hours with my students.To simply put my tutoring style: I am a lover of learning. Learning new things myself, and helping others to learn, are life-affirming experiences for me. Knowledge is joyful, and powerful! I want my students to walk away from our sessions feeling similarly.I have begun tutoring for those studying the LSAT and would love to continue to take on LSAT learners. Contrary to what you have learned from major LSAT teaching companies, the LSAT is simple and straightforward: there is one correct answer, and four wrong ones. Slow reading and a careful approach to understanding every stimulus are keys to LSAT success, and I want to help you get there! After beginning at a 154, I have practiced into the 170's, and am still taking the LSAT myself to have that reflected in my actual score.I would also love to spend some of my time with my LSAT students on their admissions applications. I have received a full ride, or more, in scholarships for each degree I have received, and I can help you achieve that same financial success with your law school application. I hope to hear from you and can't wait to help you on your law school journey!

I am a professional Performance Artist with a deep love for Math and Science. I attended a fine arts magnet school from 5th grade until my graduation from high school, where I learned to maintain a healthy balance and integration of my passions for the Arts and academia. I approach tutoring on a case-by-case basis, allowing the student to inform me of what he or she needs and what methods of teaching work best for them. I always hold my students and myself accountable, expecting a reasonable amount of progress over a period of time from us both. I always do my best to integrate fun and play as I teach, so that the work for the students stays as far away from daunting as we can manage.

For those interested in my academicside, I graduated from Southern Methodist University with Bachelors Degrees in Biological Science and Health & Society. I also have an Associates Degree in General Sciences. I previously tutored in my college's Math Lab where I experienced tutoring students both in 1 on 1 and in group settings. I tutor math because I am passionate about the subject. My approach to tutoring is to facilitatelearning by doing. I determine what each student needs to succeed by working through problems and scenariostogether.For my police side, I graduated valedictorianat the police academy and scored the highestin my class on the certification exam. I helped others in my academy through study groups and individual instruction.In my spare time I enjoy fitness and video games. I have made friends from all over the world from gaming, and I even traveled to Iceland for a conference!

I am a dedicated, published poet with an MFA in Creative Writing (Poetry) from Vermont College of Fine Arts. Poetry is a grace. Poetry is a gift. It can change the way we see the world. It can help to understand the questions that baffle us all. It can help us celebrate, rage, grieve and ponder. Poetry can create music from the sound and texture of language. It can help us explore life and see beauty in the the ordinary. I want to make literature and writing adventurous and vastly enjoyable. I want to share my endless enthusiasm for the remarkable universe of contemporary authors. Writing calls me, and has done so since I was 17. Writing can give us comfort, encouragement, validation and fulfillment. It can give us the tools to communicate our deepest feelings.

I believe strongly in every student's ability to be successful. I am a first generation college graduate of Brigham Young University-Idaho with a B.A. in Applied Mathematics. December of 2020 I will be finishing a Ph.D. in Computational and Applied Mathematics from Southern Methodist University. I can relate with students who struggle or feel underprepared for a course because I've been there, but I also know you can succeed, because I did. I have been tutoring or teaching in some compacity since 2009 as an undergraduate tutor, high-school math teacher, and online instructor. I love working with students and helping them reach their goals!

I am a current graduate student at Marquette University studying to earn a doctoral degree in Clinical Psychology. I previously graduated from Southern Methodist University (SMU) with a B.A. in Psychology (with Distinction) and Sociology. While attending SMU, I worked as a tutor for high school and college students in the Dallas area. Prior to college, I also had the opportunity to tutor students in elementary, middle, and high school, while I attended high-school in California. The primary subjects I tutor include mathematics, psychology, and sociology, as well as help with study skills and test preparation. I also tutor students for the SAT math, GRE Quantitative, GRE Analytical Writing sections.I really enjoy all of these subjects equally so my ultimate goal is to create an individualized and enjoyable learning environment that fits each student's style in order to promote the most success. Each and every type of successful experience builds an individual's confidence, which will further motivate a student to learn more challenging concepts and subjects. I truly believe that every student has the ability to learn and be successful, which requires the right approach to the material and dedication to master the small goals in order to conquer the larger goal.In my free time I enjoy outdoor activities, such as bike riding, walking trails, and horseback riding. I also enjoy cooking and baking, reading mystery novels, and trying new coffee shops and restaurants.

My name is Bitanya Dawit, and I'm a sophomore at SMU studying Finance and Statistics with a minor in Public Policy. Math has always been a passion of mine. I competed in math competitions throughout high school and enjoy helping students build confidence and a strong foundation in the subject. I tutor elementary through 8th-grade math and aim to make each session clear, supportive, and engaging. I am also a professional violinist and bring patience, focus, and creativity to my teaching. I am exploring future careers in accounting or law, and love that tutoring allows me to grow as a communicator while sharing something I truly enjoy.

I graduated summa cum laude from Southern Methodist University in 2012. I received my Bachelor of Arts in political science and my Bachelor of Science in economics. After graduating, I immediately moved to New York City to attend Columbia Law School, where I will receive my JD in May, 2015. Throughout undergraduate, I regularly tutored economics, math, and statistics courses at the school's tutoring center, and helped several students to turn around their class performance. I also enjoy helping students prepare for standardized test, whether that be the SAT or the LSAT. Especially with regard to the SAT Math, I love helping students understand the various curveballs that CollegeBoard often throws, and assisting them in achieving better scores than they thought possible. I am also passionate about Texas Rangers baseball, and fill an inordinate amount of my free time with fantasy sports and statistical research on the sport.

Growing up, I never had the dream of teaching. I simply was in love with being a learner and a student of life. As I learned, I grew into the idea that knowledge contained power, if I only I could understand and apply it appropriately. This was largely in part to having instructors who taught me that the value of education was much deeper than receiving a piece of paper or a good career. They taught me that the value of education was being able to understand life as we know it and being able to transform it through the power of our mind and the information we put in it. As I participated in the process of learning this way, I fell in love with the experience and desired to replicate it as much as possible. As I continued to learn, I naturally began to teach.While I have always been one to share what I know when helpful and relevant, I didn't start working in an actual teaching capacity until I was a sophomore in college. It was then that I became an in-classroom tutor for the Little Rock School District in Little Rock, Arkansas for a program called AVID. AVID stands for Advancement via Individual Determination and was largely aimed at offering students from disadvantaged backgrounds extra skills in studying, life skills and college preparation. I thoroughly enjoyed the holistic learning that was built into the model. I worked with students who had unique stories that revolved around living urban life. Many of them had no interest in school because they had real life problems at home. So, in one of our sessions together, I learned what their favorite songs were, pulled up the lyrics, projected them onto the screen and we learned the different styles of poetry that were written into the music they loved. This is an example of how learning can be applied in such a way that even education about rhetoric is transformative.After this, I went into substitute teaching where I was afforded the luxury of working with students on every grade level. While pursuing my masters degree at Southern Methodist University, I became a youth pastor and continued teaching ages 12-17 but this time about Christianity instead of public school curriculum. Bible study that was completely faith based before had become universally objective. I was not teaching the youth reasons why they should subscribe to Christianity. Instead, they were learning about how the teachings of Christianity have, will and can show up in our lives and the varying ways to view those teachings in light of history. Upon graduating, I became an adjunct instructor in humanities at Philander Smith College teaching courses in religion. It was here that my degree in English became critical as it was necessary to help many of my students in their writing.Writing is extremely vital. What we can produce from it has the capacity to allow us and our ideas to live forever. All of us have something inside of us worth sharing with the world. I enjoy helping my students find and cultivate the voice theyd like to say it with. It is important when working with people in general to establish positive relationships where we can accomplish our goals as our authentic selves. With my students, this means getting to know their learning styles and interests so I know best how to approach working with them. The range of studies I have been able to teach has afforded me to work with many different types of students. They have all different faculties and capabilities; No two students are alike. It is important to me to be aware of who I am working with so that I can reach each student equitably.As I continue to teach, my goal is continue creating experiences for students that transform and grow the value of education. My approach is to never tell a student what to think but to work with them in cultivating how they think and ensuring that their thinking is both critical and sound. By meeting students where they are, helping them digest and apply the information they learn, I can help them go where their goals can be reached.

My objective as a tutor is to deliver maximum life-long values: conceptual understanding, a rekindled love for learning, confidence, genuine self-esteem, and friendship. I deliver these by focusing on conceptual understanding. Most difficulties with the current materials come from not having mastered the earlier concepts or skills. I locate these earlier misunderstandings by asking questions like, "Walk me through this problem and explain your thought process" or "How are you thinking about this problem?" It's normal to get confused responses to these questions, but whatever response is offered, I can dig deeper by asking additional questions. Upon finding underlying areas that are not understood, I deliver focused learning experiences designed to quickly, easily, and enjoyably bring about conceptual understanding. I can off these kinds of mini-lessons immediately and without additional preparation because I myself have conceptual mastery of nearly the entire math and physics curricula from elementary through the first 4 years of college.When I am not tutoring: I am seeking employment in the medical device and aerospace industries as a Quality Engineer or Reliability Engineer, creating heart and mind expanding experiences for my wife and daughters, supporting my daughter's acting career and rigorous talent development programs, reading for learning or pleasure, authoring heart and mind expanding books, engaging in aggressive personal development, exploring the fullness of what life has to offer, laughing, learning, and creating values for the world.

I find all children fascinating but especially those from 2-6 years of age. I believe the children are our future, teach them well and let them lead the way (Thank you Whitney Houston!) Early Childhood (especially Montessori education) is my forte; making education equitable for ALL is my passion. While I am fond of teaching and tutoring, educational leadership is what I am good at. Inspiring teachers to become the best they can be is something I am very enthusiastic about. Helping early childhood educators develop their strengths and discover their love for teaching is what I aim to achieve. Curriculum and leading the way to best practices in all aspects of education, specifically in Montessori, is what I enjoy. "Now, what really makes a teacher is love for the human child; for it is love that transforms the social duty of the educator into the higher consciousness of a mission." - Dr. Maria Montessori

My Master's degree is in Bilingual/ESL Education and that is what I taught for many years. I also have much experience in grades PreK through 8th grade. My teaching style is relaxed and non-judgmental. My passion is to teach mostly PreK through 5th grade with an emphasis on PreK and Kindergarten readiness.

I am a PhD student at UT Southwestern Medical Center. I have received my Master's in Biotechnology at Johns Hopkins University and my Bachelor's in Biochemistry at Southern Methodist University. I've tutored middle school, high school, and college students in math (Algebra I & II, Geometry, Calculus I-II) and science (Biology, Chemistry, Organic Chemistry). I have the most experience with and enjoy teaching Algebra I & II and Chemistry though. I grew up as a athlete myself (figure skater) and so am aware of the strenuous schedule student athletes have and work to be as flexible as I can with my own schedule so that I can accommodate these students.

I graduated from Washington and Lee University with a BA in English then earned my MA in English from Southern Methodist University. My standardized test scores and essays gained me admission offers from Wake Forest University and The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. My GRE scores earned me a graduate fellowship in my current master's program. I'm pursuing an MBA at the McColl School of Business at Queens University in Charlotte. I completed an MS in Organization Development there recently.I have 10 years of teaching and tutoring experience. I was a High School English teacher who taught every grade level from standard freshmen to AP seniors. I love to help students prepare for all types of tests and improve their writing. Literature is my passion, and I can help struggling readers gain confidence. I'm an open-minded, non-judgmental tutor who loves to watch students improve.I take being a dog mom very seriously and enjoy spending time with human and furry friends.

I recently graduated from Relay School of Education with a master's degree in early childhood education. While studying at Relay, I worked at a charter school in Colorado, teaching lower elementary students. In Colorado, I taught many subjects, but I am most passionate about helping students learn how to read and understand basic math. I have seen the difference small group instruction can make on a student's academic performance and overall attitude towards school. School should be a place you are excited to go to, and sometimes if you struggle in a subject, it can taint the whole experience. I want to foster a love for learning by helping students feel confident in their abilities to read, write, and solve math equations.

I graduated from Southern Methodist University in 2023. There, I received my Master's in Business Management and my Bachelor's in Health and Society with a minor in Psychology. I attended that prestigious academic institution on an athletic scholarship throughout my 4+ years. Since graduation, I have gone on to pursue my collegiate sport at the professional level. I am currently a full-time professional soccer player for Spokane Zephyr FC. My love for soccer will never fade, but my true passion lies in helping others in need and affecting positive change however big or small. If I can help even one student and serve as a resource to assist them in their areas of need, my day will be made! I can tutor a variety of subjects and topics, but I am most passionate about French as it is my native language. I also enjoy Math and numbers up to a certain level. Above all, I enjoy sharing and spreading knowledge and seeing students surpass themselves in ways they did not think possible. I seek to foster an enjoyable learning environment where all questions are welcomed and all needs are met. In my spare time, I like to do a little bit of everything and partake in activities that pair well with my active lifestyle. When I am not on the soccer field, you can find me outside in nature taking a stroll, reading, writing, playing basketball, binge-watching my favorite show, or cooking.
