Award-Winning Algebra 2 Tutors serving Brookline, MA

...believe in treating students holistically, which often means helping them solidify their study habits, develop metacognition about their learning by understanding their strengths and areas for growth, become their own advocates, and take risks with the material. I strongly believe that all students are capable of accessing higher-level mathematics and I'm passionate about facilitating those access points accordingly. I'm an advocate for the idea that mistakes support learning, meaning I use students' errors and misconceptions...

I have loved mathematics as long as I remember. I hope that through our interaction you will get to like it more through an increased understanding. I am excited about teaching, building confidence as part of this process and improving your grades.

Hi! I am a currently math major at Northeastern University. I love solving math problems, and I always strive to have students enjoy it as well. I think that figuring out a challenging problem is one of the most rewarding aspects of studying math.

I am currently a high school math teacher. I currently teach Algebra 1, and Geometry. I have been teaching for about 7 years. I am originally from Hawaii but now I live in Massachusetts. In my free time I like to take my 1 year old cockapoo, Lilly, to the beach. I look forward to meeting you.

...for my disabled twin brother, I saw firsthand how important access to education is from a young age. Since then, I have devoted my time to my two passions, medicine, and education. I am currently in school obtaining a combination B.S. and Masters Degree in Biology, with a minor in Education. I love all the subjects that I tutor, and my favorite aspect of tutoring is watching a student's understanding of a challenging subject grow....

...located along the banks of the Loire river. I taught at a school of predominately underprivileged students of North African descent and was lucky enough to learn about their traditions and experiences in France. I have a real passion for travel and exploring other cultures. Especially all their food! I love to cook and bake, and attempt to bring some of my favorite French treats into my own home. I love tutoring French because I...

I'm a recent graduate from University of Minnesota. I completed a dual degree in psychology and mathematics. I have been tutoring for more than a year and I am looking forward to meeting new students here and helping them achieve their goals.

...I like seeing people learn and helping them along that process. I lean towards Math and Computer Science (especially the more conceptual, proof-based aspects of these fields) because I like the challenge of solving problems. As such I try to emphasize understanding of underlying concepts to optimize both long-term information retention and usefulness. Outside of Academia I'm interested in Taekwondo, Calisthenics, Music Production, Gaming, entrepreneurship, and trying out new things. I want to be able...

...I'm well versed in areas of General Chemistry, as well as Algebra and Geometry. My tutoring philosophy is mostly about proper communication. Most Math and Science classes are normally taught by teaching professionals who are well qualified to lecture in their areas of expertise. However, if the material is not explained in a way that is understandable to the student, then it may be necessary to recruit the help of a tutor. I like to...

...the power of excellent education. My job as an educator is to instill a lifelong fire of learning in each our my students. Most recently, I wrote elementary Common Core aligned math curriculum that was implemented in over 20 schools, with the goal of setting a strong foundational understanding of mathematics to set them up for success in the future. I love helping to ensure that our next generation of learners are grasping the skills...

...of my favorite volunteer experiences was tutoring high school students from Dorchester and Roxbury. I taught my students English, Physics, Chemistry, Algebra, Trigonometry, Biology, and helped them with standardized test preparation. My personal tutoring style is to use a combination of relatable metaphors and real life examples to help my students genuinely understand whatever material we are covering. I scored in the 98th percentile on the SAT and the MCAT2015, so I feel confident with...

I have experience tutoring at all levels, and one of my primary focus is to incorporate dialogic discourse into all of my tutoring sessions. This is a special type of teaching philosophy which focuses on allowing students to reach the answers rather than just showing them the right solution. I believe that a combination of dialogic discourse, critical thinking, and interest is necessary to truly understand a subject well.

...Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, and SAT Math and subject tests. Depending on students needs I would plan lessons ahead of time and provide materials for them to practice concepts on their own, or just assist with their homework. For older students working on test preparation I would offer some test taking and time saving skills as well. During my undergraduate program I was a teaching assistant for a few introductory courses and worked one on one...

...I have been fortunate to have already been accepted into a couple of schools. I would love to help you prepare for the MCATs and get a head start on your medical school application. I think this one-on-one tutoring model can be a powerful study method in preparing you for success in both the classroom and on standardized tests. In my spare time, I enjoy skiing, running, playing board games, and performing/learning magic tricks!

...to create an inclusive and supportive environment for those I teach. Drawing from my experiences at Worcester Polytechnic Institute, I employ a scaffold-ed approach tailored to each student's background and comfort level. I believe in starting with foundational concepts to build confidence before gradually introducing more challenging material. Inspired by my own transformative experiences with passionate educators, I aim to foster an engaging and supportive environment where students can discover the joy of learning. Witnessing...

...skills they develop into other subjects. I have several academic awards. I have won 2nd place in the MOEMS award at the Russian School of Mathematics, and I finished top 20 in the AMC 8 at my school. I am pretty flexible with my schedule and I encourage students to ask plenty of what, why, and how questions. If you want to know more about me, and anything about the college process whatsoever... please contact me!

...times for upper level college math courses, I enhanced the success of mathematics majors. And, I have worked with college as well as high school students individually and in small groups in many settings. With a deep, holistic understanding of a range of mathematical material, I clearly explain abstract concepts in a simple and understandable way. I specialize in any level of mathematics from basic algebra to calculus as well as higher-level math, such as...

...experience as a tour guide at the Massachusetts State House, skills that will translate seamlessly to the classroom. I am most passionate about math, and given my experience excelling in rigorous courses from Algebra 1 to Linear Algebra, I am well-prepared to take on a variety of students. During my time in the classroom, I have found conceptual understanding to be far more important than the correct answer. I am a firm believer in working...
