...the intersection of theory and practice. I have tutored college biology, taught English in South Korea, and STEM in Manhattan and art in Cambridge. I enjoy the challenge of presenting information in a manner that will engender understanding and communicate a passion for the material beyond the textbook or the test. My goal as a teacher is to not only help my students succeed academically but to enrich their relationship with the world around them.

...I tutor in a wide variety of areas, but specialize in high school and college math and science, as well as test prep. I've been teaching in some capacity since I was in high school; first tutoring peers in math and science through National Honor Society, then providing more informal one-on-one help to fellow students at MIT. I've also worked extensively teaching swim lessons for the past five years, particularly to beginners. Both in and...

...You're probably here because you have academic goals you'll like to reach and so far, you haven't been able to do that on your own.

...with children of all ages. I first started tutoring juniors and seniors as a freshman in high school when Marblehead High School allowed me into the upperclassmen's Western Philosophy class; since then, I have tutored all major subjects and tests, as well as several specialties, from the elementary to the collegiate levels. I take a collaborative approach, working with the student and parent(s) to decide what methods of improvement will best work. I work hard...

...their studies and work on areas they wish to improve. Additionally, I place a strong emphasis on thinking critically and analytically over simple rote memorization. I am currently a student at Boston College and majoring in Biochemistry. My current position as a student offers me an ideal perspective for tutoring both because the subjects are fresh in my mind and also because I have a variety of study strategies I use myself that I can...

...in psychology. As a student I worked as an undergraduate research assistant in a cognitive neuroscience lab, studied in Paris, debated with the Yale Political Union, and took part in numerous off-campus mentoring and counseling activities. In many ways I am still a student, always trying to grow as a person and in my profession. My favorite subject to teach is math, because there are often many different ways to approach any one problem -...

...Physiology from Boston University in 2016. I have an extensive background in the sciences, primarily biology, chemistry, anatomy, nutrition, and exercise physiology. While at BU, I was a teaching assistant in exercise physiology, providing hands-on learning techniques in an exercise physiology lab, as well as one-on-one study sessions for homework questions, writing lab reports, and test preparation. I have a deep passion for the sciences, with particular interest in biology and physiology. I am committed...

...in their success gives me a sense of pride and happiness. Trust me, I have been in those spots where I feel like I just cannot understand a concept, and me being the strong-headed individual I was, I had trouble seeking help. However, it is one the best decisions a student can make when struggling with a topic. I now want to continue to return the favor to fellow students going through this struggle.

...with homework and studying for exams. I found that I love teaching people how to learn; the light that turns on in a student's brain when they finally grasp a difficult concept is very rewarding. I am passionate about math and sciences, and received my Ph.D. earlier this year in Genetics and Molecular Biology. Throughout my life from a very young age I have been helping peers and mentoring younger students from middle school all...

...since my own ACT and MCAT journeys, I have been committed to helping other students through these tough, but rewarding processes. I am passionate about creating a space that allows students to truly grasp concepts, since this is key in building confidence. I am concerned not just with my students understanding why an answer is right, but why the other answers are wrong. I have been a tutor for the ACT for 4 years and...

Since graduation, I have lived in Medellin, Colombia where I am doing research through the Veterinary school. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about math, chemistry, and neuroscience. I am a firm believer that natural ability has little to do with success in a subject. Everyone can succeed at math or chemistry if they are engaged,...

I am currently working as a medical scribe at a family...

...Dental Medicine. I took a gap year before starting dental school. During this time, I became a 7th-grade teacher; this experience shaped my understanding of the current educational needs in private and public institutions. Many children needed one-to-one tutoring, which I could not provide as a teacher. I enjoy teaching in a classroom, but I found that my strengths lie in one-to-one interaction. It is easy for students to fall behind, especially with the increasing...

...Human Physiology, with an early focus on Neuroscience and Behavior, and I will be attending Medical School in the fall. I am most looking forward to tutoring in English/Literature/Writing, and Biology/Anatomy, as these are the areas that I excelled at most throughout my own education. Education is something that can never be taken from you, and as such I think it's an incredibly valuable opportunity and investment. In my spare time, I like to read,...

...no one can take away from you. That's the best part of learning - just trying can have beneficial results. Now I find it exciting to break down complex concepts into more relatable lessons. I am always trying to learn and teach myself new things, and I find that having practical experiences in baking, birding, building circuits, sewing have given me different ways to look at a problem. And I think using these experiences to...
