Award-Winning Tutors from University of North Carolina at Charlotte

My goal is to show everyone I teach their full potential. I want to help build confidence and make learning fun again.

My education includes a B.S. in Geo-Enviromental Studies from UNC Pembroke and a M.A. in Geography from UNC Charlotte. A biology minor was pursued during my time at UNC Pembroke. My experience working with students covers around 2.5 years, and was relative to physical geography(specifically labs). The courses/subject matter I tutor include AP Human Geography, AP Enviromental Science, and College level Geography courses amongst others. I particularly enjoy teaching geography and enviromental science topics somewhat equally, with a slight prefference toward geography. My teaching philosophy/aproach is relative to approaching the situation with regard to why the student is taking the class in the first place, then using a variety of techniques, particularly things I found helpful in the past. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy Dungeon & Dragons and reading manga amongst other nerdy hobbies. Hope I may be the right tutor for your academic needs.

Hello, My name is Ashreema. I am currently an Engineer with an Aerospace Company. I have years of tutoring experience and it is one of my favorite things to do!

As a passionate tutor specializing in conversational Japanese, I strive to empower students to communicate naturally and confidently. Currently pursuing my Bachelor's degree in Japanese Studies at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, I have experience as a teaching assistant for a second-year Japanese class, where I implemented interactive exercises and relatable pop culture references, like anime, to engage students. My year living in Tokyo enriched my understanding of everyday Japanese, allowing me to teach practical language skills relevant to real-life situations. I believe in tailoring lessons to each student's interests, fostering a supportive environment that encourages active participation. My goal is to make language learning enjoyable while helping students build the confidence they need to express themselves in Japanese.

While my title says "tutor", I aim to be more of a mentor. I have a strong passion for math & the computer sciences and I love being able to transfer my knowledge of the subjects to others by "under"-complicating it. My goal is not to just convey the what/how but the WHY. Most the time we find ourselves solving problems but not truly understanding the why behind it and that's what I aim to fix.

All students deserve to be respected as the child they are, regardless of their learning level or abilities. Every bud blossoms when it's their time.

Hello! I'm Lynnette, a dedicated educator with nearly 20 years of college teaching experience and a passion for helping students succeed. As a Fulbright Scholar, I've had the privilege of teaching at institutions like Rider University and UNC-Charlotte before making Signal Mountain, Tennessee, my home. Over the past seven years, I've specialized in simplifying high school curricula to meet the diverse needs of students, including those requiring special education services. My approach is rooted in empathy and individualized instruction, ensuring that each student not only understands the material but also gains confidence in their abilities. A colleague once shared: "Lynnette possesses extensive knowledge across various subjects, including History, English, Science, and Mathematics. Her insights on teaching and differentiation have been invaluable." This reflects my commitment to providing comprehensive support across multiple disciplines. I'm excited to bring my expertise and enthusiasm to Varsity Tutors, where I look forward to empowering students to achieve their academic goals through personalized and engaging learning experiences.

Hello, I'm Shannon Garrick, a dedicated tutor based in the Charlotte metro region, currently pursuing a Master's in Public Health at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. I have worked as a tutor, teaching assistant, and teacher in grades K-12 and undergraduate students. I have experience in teaching STEAM, math, and reading to elementary aged students, biology to high school and college students. In addition, I am able to assist with the writing process and help students work on executive function skills, such as organization, planning, and using online tools to help with studying and work!

I am from Ypsilanti, Michigan and graduated from Hampton University with a bachelors of arts in political science, and University of Phoenix with a master's of business administration. I also graduated from the University of North Carolina-Charlotte with a post-master certification in school administration and currently work as a dean of students at Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools. I have been in education, around the country, for over 20 years in various roles, serving in other educational capacities such as department chair, team leader and principal. He has worked for the U.S. House of Representatives and on several state and local campaigns. The most important moment in a teacher's life is when the "ah-ha" moment occurs with a student. That moment is the one that I have lived to see over and over again. When I see that moment in the face or eyes of my student, I know my job in nearly completed.I have taught many different course over my career along with some ELA, and business courses as well as physical education. My main course of studies was the discipline of social studies, including but not limited to United States History or American History, World History, Civics and Economics or Government, World Geography, and African American Studies. My focus is on helping students understand American government and American history. I try to tie in specific contribution of the many different communities and cultures that have made up the United States to help make clear the many contributions that went into making the country what it is today.My teaching philosophy is to start in a lecture format to set up the background of the lesson and then expand to a conversation where all parties can contribute to the discussion as we learn how and why situations and concepts evolved as they did. I will present information and ask for feedback to what we are learning and why it matters. As we get further along, I will ask students to help present the lesson as to bring about ownership of the subject so can all learn together.

I have recently completed my 25th year in education, with experience in teaching and intervention from kindergarten to grade 6 in addition to graduate study in curriculum design and educational leadership. After exploring different opportunities, including administration, curriculum design, and curriculum coaching, I have rediscovered my love for teaching and interaction with students. I struggled with mathematics as a student because I am an analytical thinker and it was not until I learned how to teach mathematics developmentally that I understood where my teachers had failed me. I made it my personal mission to never miss an opportunity to help a student connect to mathematical knowledge in a meaningful way and to develop multiple paths to understanding so that each one of my students will have the opportunity to interact with content in a way that makes sense to them. I have a passion for fostering developmental thinking in mathematics and believe that the way to excellence is building a strong foundation in number sense and multiple paths to knowledge. The way to understand mathematics is to do mathematics, breaking through the barriers of what a student thinks they should know and drilling down to find the obstacles that are holding them back from true understanding.

A good teacher isn't just someone who understands the materialit's someone who can explain it clearly and without unnecessary jargon. That's how I approach tutoring. I have two years of tutoring experience and currently teach at the college level, with a strong background in mathematics and computer science.

I have an English degree from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, and I have been a high school English teacher for the past five years. My expertise lies in reading, grammar, and writing- particularly literary analysis papers! I aim to inspire to students develop strong reading and writing skills. If you are struggling to understand a complex novel or to write that literary analysis essay, I would love to help guide you along the process. I don't just wish to help students with particular assignments, but give them the tools to gain deeper understanding in future classes.

Nothing feels better than that "Oh, I think I get it now!" moment. I'm Dr. West-Page but you can call me "Hal". I love math so much that I earned a Bachelors, Masters, and Doctorate degree in it! As a professor, it's been a privilege to help students in high school and college discover their mathematical confidence. I believe every student is capable of doing hard things and that no question is too small. I have experience tutoring high school and college students taking College Algebra, Geometry, Pre-Calculus and Calculus I. Having taught calculus as well as exploratory courses in math, I am very familiar with the skills needed to succeed in higher level learning. I can also provide general academic advice to prospective or early college students. I pride myself in my ability to find new ways of breaking down complex problems into simple ideas, resulting in feedback from my students like: "I was scared to take this class because I haven't done a math class in years but Professor West-Page made me feel very confident in my skills" and "Teaches at the perfect pace and is very responsive to questions" I look forward to supporting you no matter your background or level. Book a session with me today and let's work together!

Hello, please check my CV for qualifications. I am adept at biology, psychology, and math subjects. Students will be charged for full session time irrespective of attendance.

A big part of my life is focused on helping people understand what escapes them. I'm a big believer in the idea that the average person is more than capable of understanding nearly any concept. It's all about how that information is presented to them.

As an IT leader in independent schools and a father of four boys, I bring a real-world understanding of how students learn and what they need to succeed. With a Master's in Curriculum and Instruction from UNC Charlotte and over fifteen years in education, I've worked with students from Pre-K through 12th grade, helping them build foundational skills and confidence across academic subjects. My background gives me a distinctive tutoring edge. My Theatre degree from Boston College taught me how to read an audience, adapt in the moment, and make complex ideas accessible and engaging. My project management training from NYU shapes how I help students break down overwhelming tasks into manageable steps and build executive function skills. And my work integrating AI and technology into education means I can help students not just understand content, but develop the learning strategies and digital literacy they'll need for long-term success. Whether I'm helping a student organize their approach to a challenging assignment, build confidence in public speaking, or develop better study habits, I focus on meeting each learner where they are. I tailor my methods to individual learning styles and use my experience as both an educator and a parent to create a supportive environment where students feel comfortable taking risks and asking questions. My goal isn't just to help students improve their gradesit's to help them become more confident, capable learners who know how to tackle challenges on their own.

I'm passionate about helping elementary students build strong reading, writing, and communication skills in a fun and supportive environment. I focus on breaking down concepts into simple steps, using examples and encouragement to build confidence. My goal is to help students feel comfortable asking questions and develop a lifelong love of learning, just as supportive tutors helped foster that love in me.

I completed High School in Southern Calabria in Italy, studying Foreign Languages and the Tourism Industry. My love of foreign languages blossomed in High School while studying Latin, Greek, Spanish, French, Italian, English and German. Once I graduated from High School, I attended University at The University of North Carolina at Charlotte, majoring in Business Administration with a concentration in Marketing and Management, with minors in German and Finance. After working one year as a Stock Trader, I pursued my Masters Degree in Fashion Marketing and Merchandising in New York City. These are the degrees I have obtained: Diploma di Maturit delle Imprese Turistiche (Italy), BSBA in Marketing and Management with a minor in German and Finance, Master's of Professional Studies in Fashion Marketing and Merchandising. I have tutored students throughout high school and college, studying German, Italian and Spanish. I have also tutored professional working individuals preparing for business trips to foreign countries. I tutor Italian, German, Spanish and English as a Second Language! I love tutoring foreign languages because there is nothing better than adding enrichment to someone's life! I believe in having fun and thinking outside of the box. There is way more to learning a language than just repeating verbs and phrases; learning a new language is the most exciting journey that you can embark on. My goal is to make it enjoyable, stress-free, and something to look forward to! I won't quit until you get it! I work in Fashion, as a merchandiser for one of the top Off-Price Retailers in the world! With that said, I am very passionate about fashion. I am also very interested in culinary arts. Living in Italy I have learned out to whip up an amazing Italian meal, but I have been working on many Greek and French dishes. So far, I have to say, Greek food is amazing! Lastly, I love music - I attribute learning the majority of my foreign language skills to listening to music!

I am a graduate of UNC Charlotte with a degree in civil engineering and a minor in math. I tutor math because I love math, even when it's challenging. I think the best way to learn is by following examples to understand concepts.

As a member of the Varsity Tutors community, my goal is to make every session safe, enlightening and fun! I earned my Bachelor's degree in English with a concentration in Creative Writing from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. Throughout my college career, I assisted classmates that were struggling with their English courses and helped several of them turn failing grades into A's. My favorite subject to teach is English because of its versatility. Mastering the art of writing, along with the art of speaking, can help one in so many ways; and I want to bring that power to my clients. My teaching philosophy is to investigate, introduce and instruct. By following these three models of learning, I will help you reach whatever goals you have set for yourself. Aside from tutoring, I also work at the Public Library. I enjoy reading and writing and look to publish my second book in the coming months! I believe it's my job to help you see the light inside you, all you have to do is take that first step!

I am a graduate of the University of North Carolina-Charlotte, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in History and Secondary Education. I am also a graduate of the University of Phoenix, where I received my Master of Arts degree in Curriculum and Instruction. Upon graduating, I embarked on an educational journey that has allowed me teach a wide variety of subjects over the past 22 years. I have tutored numerous students in the fields of Social Studies, English-Language Arts, and in SAT test preparation sessions, for the reading component of the exam. I have always enjoyed working with my students in both a traditional classroom, and online setting, and I have always strived to incorporate elements of my students' personal likes and hobbies into the elements of my instructional design, to help make learning more engaging and efficient. I am a firm believer in the power of education, as I see it as a means for helping us shape our future in an effort to make our society better.

Hello! My name is Hannah and I am a junior in College in North Carolina! I love the beach and dogs. My favorite subject in school is math. My goal is to be an occupational Therapist one day.

Hi I'm Tess! I'm a Mathematics major at UNC Charlotte with minors in Linguistics and Cognitive Science. I've been tutoring for 4 years now and have worked with students ranging from ages 10 to 50. My specialty is math, specifically Algebra and Trigonometry, as I have the most experience tutoring in these areas. I have experience as a teaching assistant for MATLAB and I'm also proficient in Java. No matter what subject I'm tutoring, one of my main goals with each student is to help them develop critical thinking and problem solving skills that they can apply to areas beyond what we go over in a tutoring session.

My teaching philosophy is centered on patience, encouragement, and adapting to each student's learning style. I believe students learn best when they feel comfortable asking questions and making mistakes. As a tutor, I focus on building confidence while breaking down complex concepts into manageable steps. I strive to create an engaging and supportive environment where students actively participate in the learning process rather than simply memorizing information.

I received a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology from Belmont Abbey College in 2014. Recently, I received my Master of Science degree in Biology from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. Throughout this time, I was able to gain invaluable experience engaging students one on one and in a classroom setting. For two years, I worked as a lab instructor at UNC-Charlotte where I taught labs for genetics and general biology. I quickly found that teaching, and particularly working with students one on one, is a passion of mine. Whether the student is advanced in the subject or is heavily struggling with the basics, I greatly enjoy working individually with them to guide them towards improved academic performance. I fully believe that no two students are exactly alike and therefore my teaching approaches can not be exactly alike for every student. This philosophy of being flexible in my methods of engaging students enables me to get the most from every student. I am very passionate about teaching many areas of the biological sciences including cell biology, physiology, immunology, microbiology, and molecular biology. Outside of academics I enjoy going to the gym, hiking, and supporting my favorite sports teams.

Because of my passion for composition instruction and literature deconstruction, I am an interactive teacher. I believe in rich dialogue about the writing process and in-depth textual conversation. I am a firm practitioner of the notion, "If the students are bored, so am I."

Writing has always appealed to me as one of the few ways to share who you really are with someone else. To be able to do this more accurately, to more precisely convey who you are is a goal I believe to be worth pursuing.

I am Mohini. I did my Masters in Engineering Management and Bachelors in Computer Science Engineering. I love Math and am sure can solve all your problems here. Let's learn Math, it's going to be fun!!
