Award-Winning Calculus Tutors serving Newton, MA

...few years living in the capital of Ethiopia, teaching the International Baccalaureate curriculum at an international school in Addis Ababa. Between my teaching, I tutor students of all levels, most often in preparation for standardized tests, like the IGCSE, A-levels, SATs, and the IB, among others. When I was not involving myself in education, I was DJing at festivals and events in and around the towns or cities where I was residing at the time.

...both the high school and college level, both individually and one-on-one. As a high school junior and senior, I tutored sophomores in standard/honors chemistry. I have severed as a teaching assistant for an intensive section of intro-level and general chemistry courses, as well as an as-needed peer tutor for these courses. I have also served as a teaching assistant in mandatory discussion sections of General Chemistry, in which lecture concepts are reinforced in a smaller...

...engineer by education and scientist by occupation. I have a bachelors in Chemical Engineering and a masters in Bioengineering. Outside of work, I am passionate about math, science, and helping students build their confidence in those subjects. Since each student has a unique learning experience, it is important to meet students where they're at and find a way to best facilitate their learning. I hope to inspire and help each person that I meet.

...Science and Engineering major, math is a big part of my academic career. I was introduced to tutoring in my residence hall as a freshman. I would help the girls in my hall on their math homework. After that, I applied for a job at the tutoring center on campus and was accepted. Tutoring is by far the most enjoyable and rewarding job I have ever had. As a graduate student, I am no longer...

I recently graduated from McGill University in Montreal with an honors degree in economics and statistics. I also graduated from Phillips Academy (Andover) in 2013. While living in Montreal and attending Andover, I spent a significant amount of time learning French too. I have been fortunate to study at elite educational institutions and hope to help students reach their full potential. My main philosophy is that the process is just as important as the final...

...to be both rewarding (in helping others better learn a subject/topic) as well as beneficial for me (with reinforcing my knowledge, learning a topic I'm unfamiliar, and/or improving my teaching abilities). One of my goals as a tutor for Varsity Tutors is to teach subjects I'm passionate about, such as chemistry, to students who are interested in the topic but need some extra help. I have had wonderful tutors in the past help me in...

Teaching is my passion. When I am not tutoring for Varsity Tutors, I work in medical research. I love the idea of helping patients feel better and especially kids. If I had to say something about my outlook, it is that I am thankful for what I do, privileged to be part of so many lives, and hopeful that my skills will make a difference.

...entrepreneurship. I have tutored kids of all different ages in the past, including other college students. The main subjects I tutor are writing and math! My teaching philosophy is that no two students are the same, and I will cater my tutoring style to the type of student I am working with. Outside of school, I play tennis, and enjoy basketball and football, as well. I serve on the education policy committee at Tufts, too.

...Montclair, New Jersey and I went to high school in England, but I have really taken to Georgia since my dad moved down here 3 years ago. I love sports in general, but my favorites are football, soccer, baseball, and basketball. I also have a love of video games and video game design, which partially lead to my introduction into computer science. I'm passionate about all of my hobbies and interests and, having grown up...

...Science in Actuarial Mathematics. I have always enjoyed math, participating in problem solving competitions from 4th grade through Senior year of High School. In my math classes I made a point of helping out classmates who were having trouble understanding the concepts. I find it very rewarding to help people better understand math, a subject that I enjoy so much. I am an Eagle Scout and in my free time I enjoy Hiking, Camping, and...

...working with other students and sharing what I've learned. I started off tutoring a couple of neighbors in high school. Now I work with classes of up to eight. I prefer the smaller setting so that it doesn't feel like I'm assuming the role of a teacher or a professor. My areas of specialization are broad. I enjoy the sciences, maths, English language, and dabble in history. When I'm not tutoring, you can probably find...

I focus on MBA Finance, Corporate Finance, Derivatives, Valuations, Financial Management, Investments, Portfolio Management, Fixed Income, Trading, MS Excel, R and Business Analytics. Certificates : Security Industry Essentials, Bloomberg Market Concepts, CFA Level 1

...style varies a lot per client. I like to assess each individual's needs and decide how to proceed from there. I like working one on one with students, and I like to teach through exploration and inquiry. I do not want to just show you or tell you the answer, I want to guide you towards getting there yourself! There is nothing like the feeling of knowing you helped a student understand something completely. Other...

...had time. I often met with students one-on-one, and I brought textbooks from my home and researched online resources so that they could supplement my teaching with other materials. While working as a dorm parent and as a chemistry TA, I also assisted students in studying for a variety of subjects, even those that I didn't nominally teach, such as history, French, English, and Algebra II. In this capacity, I worked with approximately twenty students...

...tutoring high school and college level math and physics. As a University of Michigan student, I studied rigorous theoretical math in a variety of subjects, as well as graduate level physics and applied math. This experience allows me to teach understanding a deeper level for students who are motivated to learn more than just the basics. I am best suited to teach high school level or introductory college level mathematics and physics students, especially in...

...help you understand the material well. 2. There is no goal too small or too ambitious. We all want to be great in what matters most to us - physics, journalism, medicine etc. - and we all need to pass exams and do well in our other subjects. I find that communicating my approach, and ensuring that I know my students expectations takes my students a lot closer to achieving their goals. 3. While I...

...from Bard High School Early College, and I am currently working towards a Bachelor of Sciences degree in Education Studies and Mathematics at Skidmore College. I have previously worked with students aged 6 to 14 specializing in math. I love finding strategies to make math more accessible: particularly through use of modules, experiments, and applications. I spend my free time hiking, sewing, knitting, cooking, and building Lego castles with my three younger siblings.
