Award-Winning AP US History Tutors serving Newton, MA

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!

I am passionate about helping students learn about economics, math, history and anything else I can help with. I look forward to working with you!

...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 and American literature. My history experiences covers Europe, America, and Latin America, although I have a special fondness for Tudor England (think Henry VIII and his wives), early American history, and classical cultures, like ancient Rome. I think that everybody can develop a love for history,...

We created short films, clay animation, music, and digital collage that...

...want to empower students with the keys to success. My teaching philosophy is I like to establish a good rapport with students and ensure that they are having a fun learning process. This manifest in the form of banter or jokes embedded so that the tutoring feels more interactive rather than someone talking at you.

I am a Biology and Biochemistry double major in my senior year of undergrad. I have worked as a teaching assistant in high school, and also as a peer-led team learning leader in college. I think that everyone can strive and achieve the goals they set for themselves, even if they require a tutor to do so. I would like to be a tutor who leads my students to the success that they desire.

...helping students who struggle with math to overcome obstacles and turn confusion into success. I specialize in all levels of math up to and through precalculus. Everyone thinks about numbers and equations differently, and I want to help each student I meet in and individual, patient, and personalized way. I'm a graduate of Boston University, where I studied theatre and biology, but was very active in my high school's math curriculum. Outside of academia, I'm...

I am a student at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. I am working towards my Bachelor of Science in Neuroscience and Applied Mathematics with a minor Chemistry on the premedical track. I have been heavily involved in research relating to genetic medicine, neuroscience, and global public health. I love anything related to math or science!

...love the process of walking a student through a problem as the logic behind it slowly starts to unfold and they finally achieve that "AHA" moment. I have tutored students of all ages from elementary school to college, but I believe the skills and techniques I have acquired teaching young kids can be applied to students of all ages. I like to have fun with students when tutoring through an interactive process to keep students...

...great tutor not only teaches the material, but also helps students to become more effective learners. I often provide real-world examples to help students get excited about concepts. Also, I use practice problems so that my students can see their own improvement and gain confidence. These strategies help students to become better lifelong learners, and their benefits extend beyond the subjects I am teaching. In addition to teaching and learning, I love to exercise, play...

...questions and peer or instructor interaction, is a primary goal. This engagement evolves into discussions where students connect the material to their experiences, enhancing understanding. Achieving this requires active facilitation, not just open discussion. Employing visual aids is one means to help students link information, recognize relationships, and build a lasting, analytical understanding, but it is far from the only means to do so. I work to design my approach to fit the student's needs...

...passionate about math and science. I have experience helping students who are neurodivergent and/or have learning disabilities. I myself have ADHD and I've gathered an arsenal of different learning habits that students can try if they have difficulty with executive function.

I strongly believe that the best educators provide...

When outside the classroom, I can be found running around the Chestnut Hill Reservoir, singing with the University Chorale, or cooking for my friends in my apartment. I...

...if you don't understand Algebra 2, then you can't learn Calculus. Similarly, if you never learned about the Revolutionary War and the creation of the Constitution, then you can't properly learn about US Politics and Government. Additionally, I believe that a quality education is the key to not only a successful but a fulfilling and happy life. I am an avid politico and am currently working at a government affairs firm in downtown Washington, D.C;...
