...concentrate on creative writing, so naturally it is my favorite subject to tutor. In assisting students with writing at Boston Latin, I have found that some students have a natural turn for writing essays and need little more than encouragement and editing.

Hi, my name is John. I have taught math for over 30 years and I still love it now as much as I did when I first started. I love math and I find it fun, and when I work with students, I find ways to translate this to them. I love mathematical thinking and I love helping students develop a sense of this....
