Hi,I'm Friday Faraday (Pronouns: They/Them) and I am a Adjunct Professor of English Composition and Written Communication at Wilbur Wright College in Chicago. I am also a published author of science-fiction and poetry, as well as a freelance editor. My goal here is to make sure that your writing is clear and structure. That your message is just as clear and to give you the confidence to handle any type of writing. I welcome any questions that you have during our sessions. I like to be honest, and that means not just pointing out things that need to be improved, but things that you are good at. I look forward to helping in anyway possible.Outside of teaching, I am huge fighter for LGBTQ+ rights, intersectional feminism, and the rights of POC. I take part of as many marches possible and I use my writing to shine a light on those issues.

Patient dedicated instructor who will focus on the success of the student. My goal is to help you be successful.

I received my BA in Special Education and Elementary Education from Northern Arizona University. My Master's is in Education - Administration and Supervision. I have worked with special education students all of my teaching career. I have also been in Special Education Administration as well as a High School principal. I believe each child should be taught where they are emotionally, mentally, and educationally.

I am a certified teacher and currently am teaching kindergarten. I have also taught 2nd and 5th grade. I obtained a Gifted certification after my first year of teaching. I have experience teaching students with ADHD, ADD, and Autism. My favorite things to teach are K-2 math and ELA (literacy) and 3-5 ELA and social studies. The passion I have for teaching comes from my love of history! I want to be a part of it, after I'm long gone, what better way to be a part than shaping the minds of our future leaders? I am a huge fan of learning through play and run a student-centered style environment and I believe with differentiation and rigor we can meet students where they are academically, socially, and emotionally, and take them where they need to be. Thus closing the learning gap.

I'm a 25 year experienced executive with Fortune 100 companies like FedEX, Dell and JP Morgan Chase. I have had an opportunity to lead very large organizations, travel the globe and work with great people. My greatest love was being able to influence and teach others along the way. Working as a tutor at Varsity is just an extension of my own personal philosophy.

Education is the greatest asset a person can have. It's important, but it should also be fun to learn. Many people think education in general is boring when they have to learn about something. I try to keep it light in nature, using humor to help the student be comfortable, but also assist them in gaining confidence while they learn.Using personal experience tends to be helpful also when tutoring. If the student can somehow relate, it is easier for them to retain the information.When I'm not trying to help someone learn, I enjoy spending time with my son reading, photography, wine tastings and crafting. Happy Learning

With the right teacher, mastering a subject can be much easier than trying to do it by yourself. Teachers and students need to work together to accomplish this.

Hi! I am a licensed teacher with a masters degree in education. I have been teaching elementary and middle school students for 13 years in the classroom and online.

My name is Kelley and I have dedicated my life to teaching special needs students for the past 20 years. It is my belief that all children can learn with the proper structure, motivation and learning techniques. Customizing lessons to meet the needs of my students is what I am all about. If given the opportunity to work with a student, I know that I can bring out the best in them through interesting lessons and learning styles methods.

While the original intention for obtaining my teaching degree was to better help my child through his educational struggles, I soon realized that my son was not the only one who needed help. That is when I made the decision to expand my horizons so that I could assist all children through the learning process. When it comes to tutoring students, I believe my unlimited amount of patience and my nurturing personality are some of my assets. I am also highly organized and pay a great attention to detail. When it comes to a computer I am well-versed and have the ability to find a variety of information online that will assist me in my tutoring. This will help me in providing creative instructional practices. I believe everyone learns in different ways so what works for one child may not work for another. If a topic is fun and interesting it will be remembered for the experience. Working hands on, keeping a child actively involved will keep he or she interested. The biggest complaint I hear is that school is boring. Using interactive activities centered on the child will keep them interested. Experiencing something for yourself, rather than reading about it, is a more memorable experience. And it is the experience, no matter how big or small, that the child will remember. My passion is to help children learn and succeed and I think that it shows in the way I interact with children and how they respond to me.

Education is an art, not a science. Art must start with high expectations and adaptability for students to learn. Standards, expectations, and positive classroom management play integral parts in this educational journey and can impact students greatly. High standards need to come from the teacher and the students, each pushing each other beyond expectations. Both have a responsibility to push each other to achieve, which leading to success.Preparation from both can take many forms:Creating an engaging curriculum that offers a variety of opportunities for practice and success which could include direct learning, cooperative groups, project-based learning, team teaching, cross-curricular units, portfolio, and self-reflection. Both will increase their knowledge base and will help with not become stagnant. Both should be seeking aid and thoughts from mentors, professors, and people in the community. Committee hours for assistance each other, parent communication, and extracurricular activities involving the whole class or part of it as needed.Researching, then choosing a classroom model that fits teaching style and age appropriateness.Student and professor need to read and search topics for discussions before getting into a class. Each should try to find details that will surprise, surpass, context to prior knowledge to make a subject more interesting to the class. Each topic is discussed should be connected to other topics, both within the class, other classes, and the real world. Challenge each other, leads to all involved reach new heights in their learning. Team learning includes admitting and taking responsibility for mistakes, which creates a safe atmosphere to take risks. We all are capable of going beyond each paradigm to find success. It a dysfunction to our students, when the class exceptions are less because of busy schedules, family life, special needs, hard circumstances, or anything for the outside of academia. Teaching to the individual with everyone challenging that specific student helps to pushes expectations and gains self-esteem as well as academic progress for all.A positive classroom makes it safe and free from barriers to learning. Professors need to model taking risks, so students can see professors working on projects as well. Classroom examples and everyone doing projects from students to professor alike. Everyone should be comfortable taking risks within this safe environment.Education is inevitably a well-thought mental process. This journey is so important to learning and planning is essential. Creating progressive curriculum, and a safe, positive classroom allow the dream of learning to take places all around. "Success is a journey, not a destination." (Sweetland, 2001).

My students call me Dr. B. I have been teaching for 40 years. My job is to find a way for you to understand and apply what you are studying. What good is something if you can't use it? Because I have done this for a long time, I have many ways of explaining something to you and will use as many methods as necessary for you to understand a concept. I do not succeed unless you do.
