I first became interested in tutoring in high school, where I found myself helping friends in anything from AP Literature to the math portions on the SATs. In my experience, working one on one with people has been incredibly rewarding, as it allows for a deeper level of communication between the tutor and the tutee. I began tutoring more formally when I started attending college at Boston University. Throughout my junior year, I worked at BUs Writing Center as a writing consultant, where we help students with papers from the writing courses, ESL English courses, and various other courses in the College of Arts and Sciences. Being a consultant has given me the opportunity to work with students from diverse backgrounds, whether they be an ESL student in Biology or a student from Boston studying English, and I am excited to return to this work during my upcoming senior year.Working with so many different students has taught me a lot about tutoring, including valuable lessons about different learning styles and communication. My approach to tutoring is typically to begin with a discussion with the students about what they feel their strengths and weaknesses are, and their past experiences with the subject being discussed. I have found that engaging with the student and opening a line of communication helps me to determine what the focus of a session should be and how directly to approach learning specific topics. Some students require more direct visual step-by-step examples whereas others can benefit by completing a problem individually and then reviewing errors. Therefore, I try to keep in mind that figuring out a students learning process by asking questions about teaching styles and specific challenges is often just as important as the material being taught; not only does identifying these characteristics help me better tailor my tutoring approach, but it can also help the student better learn on their own.Outside of tutoring, I am an avid reader, movie lover, gamer, and concert-goer. When Im not re-reading my favorite Shakespeare play or watching the latest comic book movie, I can usually be found jumping up and down at a rock concert somewhere in the Boston area. Music has been an incredible influence upon my life, allowing me to connect with friends and strangers alike through the art of others. Im also a passionate animal lover, and I volunteer weekly to clean and (mostly) play with cats at the shelter, despite being a bit allergic. Additionally, being a computer science and philosophy double major at Boston University, I love discussing topics about technology and existentialism. People tend to say Im the textbook definition of a nerd, and Id have to proudly agree with them. I love learning new things and sharing knowledge with others, which is one of the reasons I find tutoring so rewarding. Oftentimes I find that as I help a student better understand a topic, I too get to learn quite a lot from them, and Im excited to continue to share my love of knowledge with others.

I have been teaching students for over ten years. I love to help students of all ages, of all learning types. I strive to encourage students and to motivate them to love learning any subject!

Before, my math teacher had to give me modified work, and now she doesnt; and on the last test, I got the highest grade in the class. We both beamed with pride and joy when my student, a ninth-grader going to a private academy, told me about her achievement; our achievement. We had been working together for one and a half hours a week throughout the school year.Your success is my success. There is no greater reward than when a student who was previously struggling, gains the understanding, confidence and knowledge to succeed. Developing a good relationship and setting realistic goals are vital for a successful tutoring experience. With the proper learning strategies and a little hard work, you can achieve your goals. Take small steps, celebrate even the most modest accomplishments, and turn a disadvantage into an advantage.Learning how to overcome adversity, allows us to prove to ourselves that we can surmount our challenges, achieve our goals, and gain the knowledge and confidence we need to become successful individuals, not just in academia but in life.

I have previous experience tutoring 5th grade students in math, science, and reading comprehension, in preparation for the Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills (TAKS), which was a previous standardized test in the state of Texas. My students at that time consistently gave me feedback that they understood concepts that they were previously struggling with, after having a tutoring session with me.My educational background consists of completing a master's degree in clinical medical sciences (physician assistant studies) and completing a bachelor of arts degree in biology. I previously worked as a physician assistant for almost 2.5 years in the specialties of primary care and oncology, and truly enjoyed taking care of patients. I consider myself to be hardworking, patient, friendly, and great with children. I was born and raised in Houston, TX and love to spend my free time with my family and friends, volunteering, and studying spirituality.

My name is Erika, I am 27 years old. I have experience in many subjects. I currently work as a paraeducator in an elementary school. I hold a bachelors degree in psychology, a masters degree in ABA therapy, and I am currently pursuing a second masters degree in special education teaching.

I really love the Spanish language! It is not only useful right here in the United States, but it is also a beautiful language! Speaking Spanish will help you connect with and earn the respect of peoples from all over the world. There are approximately 21 Spanish-speaking countries plus many others who have a large population of Spanish-speakers.I hold a Bachelor's Degree in the Spanish language from Arkansas Tech University and a Master's Degree in Spanish Education from New York University. I have taught Spanish for over seven years and really enjoy helping others to learn too. Before I was a teacher, I was an interpreter for hospitals. I have traveled quite a bit through various parts of Spain & Mexico, studying dance, theatre, art, grammar & history as well as doing mission work. I look forward to working with you, the student, on your own goals and will treat you with patience and encourage you to grow and improve.I love to play the guitar. I write folk songs and poetry and play acoustic guitar. I also enjoy acting, so really anything that involves communicating ideas with others!I look forward to meeting you and getting started! You will be able to do so much with your new skills and will really enjoy improving and growing in the Spanish language! Best wishes!

Having earned my B.A. in English from Freed-Hardeman University, my mission as a tutor is to help students find communicative freedom, allowing them to have confidence in how they present themselves in writing and presentation. There are few skills of greater importance than reading and writing well. The ability to read well, especially in analysis, allows for individuals to craft their conclusions around thoughtful consideration of an author's argumentation. Subsequently, the ability to write well allows for the individual to clearly communicate these conclusions with others. While much of my tutoring involves the ACT English sections and AP English exams, these tests are excellent ways of letting students practice these skills, and I want to help them reach new levels of aptitude and confidence. I am passionate about these intellectual disciplines, but I am especially passionate about helping readers become better readers and helping writers to come out of their shells. I want students to love the study of language and literature, and let them have the opportunity to talk and write about it with even greater proficiency.

In May 2022, I graduated from the University of North Texas with a major in Technical Writing. In my studies, I earned a certification in Technical communication. In my senior year of college, I was a substitute teacher for my local school district, helping me gain experience tutoring and teaching students. I am always happy to help students learn and grow in their education.

My primary goal is to help students become independent, comfortable, and confident in the fields they are studying. I love helping people get to the "aha" moment when they really understand what's being taught. In my experience, one of the most important parts of tutoring is setting clear expectations at the beginning and working toward a common goal. Given the right goals and assistance, I truly believe that anyone can master any of the subjects I teach.

My goal is to help students cultivate their strengths and find areas of improvement in a safe, affirming environment to nourish their musical and academic gifts.I started my music career playing in the local Chicago punk scene at age 16. After a few years of recording, touring, and writing, I decided to pursue a degree in opera. I spent my first two years of undergrad performing in operas, symphony concerts, and musicals when I felt called to turn my career towards the academy.I was accepted into the honors college and began thesis work on the aesthetic correlations between architect, Frank Lloyd Wright and composer, Ludwig van Beethoven.After being admitted into a research fellowship and pursuing research grants, I applied to Masters and PhD programs in musicology. Music has always been my passion but now, I am able to capitalize on my strengths and interests while still pursing a career in music.Along with my current research, I still sing professional and play as a studio musician in punk, folk, jazz, and metal.My experience allows me to bring the knowledge I have gained from performing and coursework to the classroom with interdisciplinary teaching methods and collaborative approaches. I hope I am able to work with you or your student to cultivate their passion for the arts.
