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.

Hi everyone! My name is Emily and I am so excited to be virtually meeting you. I am originally from the mountains of North Carolina and attended the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. During my undergraduate career, I double majored in Political Science and Peace, War, and Defense with a minor in Entrepreneurship. Go Heels! After I graduated from UNC, I joined Teach for America in Dallas, Texas. There I taught 5th-grade math and science for two years and became a fully certified teacher in Early Childhood-6th grade. I also completed my Master's Degree in Education with a concentration in Gifted and Talented from Southern Methodist University. I have since moved back to Charlotte, North Carolina in 2022 where I live with my chocolate lab, Happy. I am so excited to work with you!

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 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!

Helping students grow into confident, independent thinkers is one of the most rewarding parts of my professional life. I'm passionate about education because I believe it's a powerful force for unlocking opportunity and creating long-term impactboth for individuals and for communities. Over the years, I've worked with learners at many levels, from high school students preparing for college to graduate-level professionals deepening their technical expertise. My experience spans academic settings, corporate environments, and competitive learning platforms where I've guided students in mastering complex topics and building real-world skills. I hold a master's degree in data science and have taught a range of subjects including Python programming, machine learning, data analysis, AI, statistics, and project management. I especially enjoy tutoring in algorithmic thinking and problem-solving because these skills not only build technical fluency, but also empower students to approach challenges with clarity and creativity. My teaching philosophy centers on creating a supportive, collaborative learning environment where students feel encouraged to ask questions, make mistakes, and think critically. I adapt my tutoring style to the needs of each learner, combining structure with flexibility and always tying concepts back to practical applications.

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 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 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'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 strive to tutor and teach in an encouraging, uplifting manner, and believe that acting as a teammate, mentor and friend to students leads to effective learning and positive results.I received my MBA from SMU in May of 2018, and prior to that, graduated from UT Austin in May of 2013 with a degree in Public Relations and Communications. I currently work as a wealth manager in the Park Cities, and have experience in finance, technology and professional services.

I received my BBA in Accounting from Southern Methodist University, and I am currently in the Master of Accounting program at the same university. I have not looked back since my first financial accounting course, and I greatly enjoy helping others better understand accounting. I know that just memorizing answers will get you nowhere in your accounting courses. I strive to help my students understand the why and how behind the answer so they can apply their knowledge to a greater range of problems.

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.
