Award-Winning Anatomy Tutors serving Brockton, MA

...year of AmeriCorps. As an AmeriCorps member I was responsible for leading an after school science program, an opportunity that allowed me to create hands-on creative lessons and gain more experience tutoring and teaching. I tutored as an undergrad, and I absolutely love science (and math too!) I have taken a multitude of science courses as an undergrad and throughout medical school and feel very comfortable with most science based subject areas.

...student at ease, but it also allows me to identify how the students learns best. Learning can be a cause for anxiety. I like to build a relationship with my students and help them face fears about areas of anxiety. I have multiple ways of presenting content so that each student can discover which way works best for them. My goal is to get each student confident with a given material so that they can...

...was serving as an Education Volunteer in the Peace Corps and had the opportunity to teach and tutor math, French and health sciences to elementary, middle and high school students. To be able to follow my students for the 2 years of my service and to see their growth and improvement was incredibly rewarding.

...students at all proficiency levels in the language. My bilingual background has also given me the opportunity to work with native Spanish speakers in other academic subjects. I bring a compassionate and collaborative approach to teaching. I strongly believe that a tutor must treat his or her student as a teammate and not as someone who merely needs instruction. The goal of any tutoring session should be to bring out and foster a student's own...

...strategies for Harvard College students applying to highly competitive scholarships. Each of these experiences has taught me how to communicate concepts in clear and engaging ways. For instance, while tutoring adolescents enrolled in the Boston-based Artists for Humanity program, I would often teach students whom I had never worked with before, and thus became adept at quickly discovering and implementing the strategies that worked best for a particular student (e.g., visual/tactile examples, analogies, and breaking...

...and figure out what things I can actually help them with. It is always my goal to help students understand concepts and problem solving strategies themselves, so that they can tackle and solve their problems and assignments themselves. I love when the students who come to me have their "Eureka!" moments and come to understand the concept they didn't grasp before, or solve the problem that had been giving them so much trouble. It's a...

...program for underclassmen who were struggling in their science courses. Outside of this, I volunteered my time to help students who were struggling in the upper level courses I was taking. I love science and medicine and I love teaching students to understand and appreciate how cool science can be. I believe that once you understand the concepts and how they fit into the larger framework, it makes memorizing a lot easier and it gives...

...helping students and seeing them succeed after their hard work is very rewarding for both myself, the student and the family. Not only do I seek to help students achieve academic and testing success , I also strive to foster students' capability to learn and problem solve independently, skills that will apply to any academic subject and in everyday life. Aside from learning about the human body in class, I enjoy hiking in the near...

I'm a second year MD/PhD student currently enjoying medical school. I'm a laid back guy who loves to teach and help people understand topics. I also enjoy teaching people new ways to learn, allowing them to spend less time studying and more time enjoying other activities, like playing soccer or exploring around their city.

...eventually become a Pediatric Dermatologist! Although I grew up in Illinois, I have spent the majority of the last 6 years in Boston so I feel like it's a second home. My tutoring specialties are in SAT and ACT Test Prep, Algebra, most Science courses and Writing (especially college admissions essays!

I'm a retired physician, who rediscovered his love for teaching as a volunteer tutor for Boston's Partners in Education. I have been a volunteer tutor for high school kids at Artists for Humanity for the past 3 years. I have many years of experience teaching in Medical Continuing Education. I am semi-retired, like teaching and kids. I enjoy working with students on a one-on-one basis, and am patient and thorough in my approach.

...School. I know what it's like to encounter a difficult subject, and the frustration with having to study for a particular exam, or for a course that is uninteresting but a prerequisite, which is why I have developed methods over the years to effectively study the material while enjoying the process. Studying can and should be entertaining, and that makes retaining the material easier, and taking the test or passing the course less stressful. I...

...basics of cell biology and variety of laboratory techniques. My students received scholarships for Ph.D. programs in prestigious universities across the United States, such as University of Pittsburg, University of Utah, Brown and Northwestern Universities. Beyond teaching University students, I used to work with high school students, leading an extra-curriculum club in biology, as well as coaching them for science Olympiads. I am also nature enthusiast, and four-season volunteer backcountry trip leader in Appalachian Mountain...

...learning style is different. I believe the most valuable learning comes when students are encouraged to solve problems using their own basic knowledge and skills, rather than being told to memorize a certain formula or simply being given the answer. This is what I strive to do with all of my students. My friendly, energetic, and patient personality has helped students to feel at ease in the past, stimulating interest and confidence in the material...

...and ask me the same questions. I quickly learned that the professors were simply reading off slides; taking little time to explain difficult mechanisms and concepts. As such, few students were learning the material, and almost all of them needed a tutor to re-explain the material. As a result, I developed the ability to tutor at a pace that matches the students' needs. I truly mean it when I say I take my tutoring seriously,...

...style is unique. I first listen to my students and learn how they like to learn, and memorize new techniques and skills. After learning about my students, I devise strategies to best fit their study habits. I relate problems to what they like (always trying to make learning fun). I give students pointers on how to learn and thrive in an academic setting. Besides science and math I love sports, music (especially the drums), and...

...experience working in daycare and preschools with younger children and helping prepare pre-kindergarten students for kindergarten with reading, writing, and basic math. Although I am super passionate about biology, I also enjoy tutoring math, especially at the elementary and middle school level. I have been informally tutoring peers and younger students in math for about 10 years I.e. When I was in middle school, I was tutoring elementary school; when I was in 10th grade,...

I am a graduate student studying nursing at Simmons College. I am also a certified Emergency Medical Technician! During the time that I don't spend studying or working, I enjoy reading fiction novels. I have experience tutoring reading, writing, biology, chemistry, and German!
