I also offer ACT/SAT Writing, ACT/SAT Reading, SAT Verbal and ACT English tutoring. My approach to tutoring is centered on the belief that...

...studying for the bar after graduating cum laude from Northwestern University Law School this May. I studied at St. Ignatius College Prep and graduated summa cum laude from Villanova University (including a two-term stint at Cambridge University). Between Villanova and Northwestern I worked at an academic non-profit organization and evaluated hundreds of fellowship candidates' writing and academic work. I will work with each student to craft a personalized plan of study and improvement based on...

...this spring. In the fall, I will begin attending law school at Northwestern Law. For many years, I tutored a wide range of students in Spanish, English literature, and writing. I have also continued to help many high school seniors with college application essays. While I tutor a variety of subjects, I am very passionate about helping students improve their reading and writing skills, and I really enjoy helping students with Critical Reading and Writing...

...will be pursuing my PhD in Neuroscience in the fall at Johns Hopkins. I have been tutoring high school students outside of class in college and involved in STEM academics and research mentorship as well as a translation program from and to English outside of class.

...As a science major and experienced tutor, I understand that the sciences pose unique and varied challenges to students. One of my primary goals is to meet students where they are, understand their specific needs, and develop an individualized plan that challenges them and helps them succeed. To this end, I do not follow a specific formula during sessions with my students. Instead, I work with my students to build a plan that meets their...

...to preparing for them, emotionally as well as academically. I graduated in June 2012 as the third in my class of over 600 students and continued my education at Texas A&M University as a psychology major with minors in neuroscience and Spanish. I graduated from Texas A&M with a Summa Cum Laude distinction in May 2015 and went straight into my graduate coursework. Given my own testing experiences and the value I place on higher...

My goal is to provide students with an understanding of the topic that is tailored to the student 's learning style while providing him or her broad insights into the issues. Quality writing, speaking, and argument can only come with a full understanding of facts and context, and having that will distinguish my students...

...Service and Education. I apparently aspire to have a resume similar to The-Most-Interesting-Man-In-The-World's. As a teacher, I try to "guide learning" rather than just reciting facts or "teaching at" a student. I believe that discovery is the most exciting way to learn as well as the best method for producing long-term recall; it also tailors every learning experience to the individual student. I was most inspired to pursue this Socratic style of teaching after taking...

...and I strive to reignite a curiosity for knowledge in my students and peers. Notable positions I have held include a Success Coach for Peer Powera community centered non-profit whose goal is improving childhood education through involvement between local grade schools, universities, and corporationsand interestingly enough, a ballroom dance instructor. My academic strengths are fairly broad, with expertise in mathematics and standardized testing. A couple fun facts about myself: I'm from New Jersey and of...

...my teacher license this academic year from calumet college, St. Joseph. My undergraduate degree is in Economics from the University of Chicago, and I did a lot of statistics, too! I like having kids how to read, write, and do math. Because I loved doing those in school, and I'll be teaching that this up coming school year. To have a struggling reader all of a sudden love reading and attack hard words never before...

...and more. I assistant taught in college and often helped my friends with essay writing and studying. Since graduating, I’ve tutored my younger sister for many of her high school classes. I now tutor a wide range of subjects, including literature, history, writing, Spanish, and Algebra. I am particularly passionate about preparations for standardized testing, including the SATs and AP exams, and helping students through the college application process. My hope is that the support...

...and Organic Chemistry, for both high school and college age students. My personal teaching philosophy is to lead my sessions with a student-based approach. As a current student myself, I understand the frustrations that we can encounter when working to learn a new subject, and I am committed to working with students to help them learn in the best way for them. Outside of school, I am on the dance team, I pursue neural engineering...

...but I love learning all types of subject matter! I have extensive and recent experience with tutoring, whether for the ACT or for Algebra I. During my senior year of high school, I worked at Mathnasium, tutoring children of all ages in mathematical topics ranging from counting to calculus. Furthermore, I currently volunteer weekly in "Latino Achievers", a group that allows me to provide free ACT tutoring for students in Nashville schools.I also hope to...

...learned a great deal not only about what I teach, but about how to teach. I'm very interested in pedagogy and am always asking myself "is this the most effective way to teach this subject or this concept," "what is the pedagogical merit in this approach," and "am I making sure that the student I'm tutoring isn't just hearing what I'm saying, but is understanding it as well?" I've had a significant amount of time...

...passionate about English, Literature, History, Spanish, and Government/Social Studies. Through my experiences helping struggling students and peers, I have realized the value of adaptability. Most people reach out to a tutor because the traditional classroom method is not best suited for their learning needs. There is nothing more joyful than when a student finally understands the material in a way that makes sense to them. Many times, students need flexibility and patience in order to...

...board or in a chemistry lab - and I loved every minute of it!) As a graduate physics TA at the University of Kentucky, I've spent seven semesters teaching physics laboratory courses to 60 undergraduates per semester. I create my own presentations, interactive activities, and worksheets to help my students learn the complex physics and error analysis concepts. In my second year, I was promoted to a Supervising TA position, in which I continued to...

...my student's specific goals and challenges so that I can best tailor classes to their needs. In terms of my teaching philosophy, I like to provide students with highly structured approaches to problem-solving. I do this to ensure that their students walk away armed with a set of tools that allow them to demonstrate what they have learned and execute tasks that are contingent on their subject mastery. Regardless of if you are solving a...

...Medical College. I am also attending RPI as a Renneslaer Medalist, where I will study Biology, Politics, and Economics. Since I scored a 36 on the ACT myself at the beginning of my sophomore year (10th grade), I have been tutoring and helping other students at my high school find similar success on these exams in addition to their AP and final exams. I enjoy teaching, and helping students unlock their full potential!
