Varsity Tutors

I am a highly prepared person. I typically take one of two approaches with students. Either I supplement what they are learning in school by helping on homework or for test preparation, which means that they are receiving homework or practice from their school, or I provide homework and practice. Basically, I require students to be practicing outside of our sessions because it makes the sessions much more effective. I like consistent contact with the student or their parents, as long as I am able to assign practice for the student and communicate on how the practice is going throughout the time I am helping. My favorite subjects to tutor are high school math subjects, such as geometry, algebra, pre-calculus, and calculus, as well as ACT and SAT prep. I was a successful student in high school, earning 100s in most of my math classes, the National Merit Scholar award, and a 35 on the ACT (though I am perpetually frustrated that I did not get a 36). I remember being frustrated as a student because my tutors typically had more knowledge than I, but had not been as successful in school, and thus could not provide any tips for academic success that I did not already know. Therefore, I work best with honors-level students and above who have a similar issue. I did very well in high school, am graduating the University of Alabama with my BA two years early despite having a double-major, and i will finish my Master's degree two years early as well. I feel like I have a lot of tips for school in general to help already successful students finally harness their hard work and actually derive the full benefit from it, so that is how i stand out as a tutor.

I enjoy tutoring because I feel like I have very unique tips to provide students, and I love sharing these tips that will increase student success but that students for one reason or another have never been told. I have been tutoring for Varsity tutors for some time, but they take a high percentage of my earnings, so I would like to try tutors.com. My reviews on Varsity tutors rate me at a 4.8/5 stars, and if you would like to read them individually, please feel free to contact me because I would love to show them to you.
