...such. I hold a Masters in Education specializing in secondary education, but I've worked with a wide variety of student demographics: K-12, college/university, returning students, ESL/ELL, gifted and/or reluctant learners, etc. I enjoy the challenge of stepping outside of my comfort zone in terms of teaching assignments, and I believe my passion for being in the classroom rubs off on my students. My teaching philosophy includes having a learner-centered growth mindset that takes into account...

...of our nation and our future, and if students are struggling, they absolutely deserve the help that a tutor can give them. I do not believe in teaching directly towards standardized tests; rather, I believe in giving students abilities that they can use not only to get high scores, but to help them develop stronger, more well-rounded skill sets. Things like grammar or writing skills are useful in any field, and I would love to...

...inaccurately, "Professor." For two summers, I tutored Reading Comprehension. What makes me a great tutor is my passion for student success and my love for the subjects I want to teach. The diversity of my students has taught me to adopt a new persona to fit each particular student. Zany playfulness is often the best for younger students, a certain amount of sarcastic humor can help engage some disaffected older students, etc.

...appreciation for the natural world on an atomic and systemic level. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy painting landscapes, quilling (creating jewelry from paper!), reading memoirs and a variety of fiction, spending time with my little sister and brother, journaling, conducting clinical cardiovascular research, and long nature walks outside. Gathered beneath the same constellation of scientific wonder, let us learn together. Grow together. And most importantly, have fun along the way. After all, as John Corsby...

...how much I love to help students, tutoring or otherwise. Nothing makes me happier than having a student tell me that my help aided them in obtaining a great grade!

...in History focused on Middle Eastern History and Cold War History (especially the nuclear arms race); in college, I minored in History, primarily the History of Europe between the Dark Ages and the Renaissance. I believe that a high school teacher's job (and a tutor's) is not just to cover the curriculum. I also provide my students with the skills they will need to succeed in college and the workplace, including study skills, note-taking skills,...

...or writing papers. I try to help students develop the skills they need so that they can move forward with confidence and continue to improve. I have been reading my whole life, and I have done a lot of creative writing, so I have a great love of words. I am particularly fond of Shakespeare (although there are a lot of students who don't agree with me!) but I also have experience reading other European...

Teaching is about taking my own energy, positivity and excitement and sharing it with students. I have taught in high schools, summits from Boston to Beijing and have always found that students are able to learn and grow when they are challenged and excited by those teaching them. I believe that any student who finds a course boring, or impenetrable, simply hasn't found the right teacher yet!

...academic challenges. As a student from kindergarten through graduate school, my teachers and professors were role models that I admired and used as models for my own behavior. One of my proudest moments was working as an undergraduate instructor as part of my doctoral program at Northeastern University. Walking in the classroom and getting to stand at the front of the classroom for the first time, completing my journey from one side of the classroom...
