Award-Winning Elementary Math Tutors for Students in Boston, MA

...especially love helping students learn languages. My strategy for tutoring includes making sure the student understands the fundamentals necessary to tackle the problem, checking to make sure the student understands the concepts behind the problem, and coming up with a plan to practice and retain what the student has learned during the session. I believe anyone can succeed at any subject if he or she puts the work in and is guided by the proper...

...that a tutor can give them. I do not believe in teaching directly towards standardized tests; rather, I believe in giving students abilities that they can use not only to get high scores, but to help them develop stronger, more well-rounded skill sets. Things like grammar or writing skills are useful in any field, and I would love to inspire a student who hates math, as I once did, to embrace it and even study...

...am spending the next year pursuing my passion for teaching, before becoming a PhD candidate in the field of Applied Sciences and Technology at the University of California at Berkeley. I have been a tutor for the last few years. I have worked primarily with undergraduate physics and engineering students, both individually and in large groups. I am a great tutor because I am extremely patient. I believe that the best way to teach is...

...am an active blogger, writer and artist. I have been tutoring for local elementary school children since I was in 9th grade, but during high school I expanded to work with middle school students.

I love working with students and sharing my passion for writing, reading, and the arts. However, I also loved math...

...I love learning and I believe that it can be enlightening and fun. But, I also know that the process can be frustrating at times. The mark of a great tutor is his or her ability to address each individual's needs so that learning can become an empowering tool rather than a stumbling block. Working with students in small groups and in one-on-one settings to this end is a passion of mine. I love collaborating...

...on my learning and tutoring experience, I believe it is critical to learn and understand all of the concepts of the subject, practice and master the knowledge, and then apply it to real world situations. Organization in the teaching and learning of the subject plays an important role. I hope that students result in mastering and appreciating the subject. On my own time, I enjoy working out at the gym, playing the Chinese hammered dulcimer...

...studies. I am a dual citizen of the United States and Sweden and apparently sleep talk in both languages. My biggest passion is the preservation of the environment, and I hope to start a career as an environmental scientist. I am currently certified to both prepare students for the ACT exam and tutor mathematics (algebra and pre-calculus), physics, chemistry, and general science. In my free time I enjoy reading, skiing, hiking, cooking, longboarding, sailing, and...

...in education children are given up on if they cannot grasp a concept when in fact it is the education system that is failing the child. Every child has their own way of learning, and as an educator, it is my mission to make sure that every child achieves his/her goals. I am originally from Orlando, FL but relocated to Massachusetts a little over a year ago. I went to the University of Central Florida...

...the University of Massachusetts. During my studies, I spent a year tutoring student-athletes in Chemistry, Physics, Math and Engineering. Earlier in my schooling, I spent two years as a camp counselor and a year regularly babysitting, so mentoring has always been a part of my life. I also have experience as a part of the Best Buddies organization during high school, and so I have some experience with special needs students as well.

...a fair amount of math and science tutoring with middle and high school students, which is almost easier, since full comprehension can be immediately and clearly demonstrated. I generally design some sort of worksheet in order to walk the student through the process of figuring out the general concept in a unique way; for example, I will use an angle maze to teach geometric angle theorems. I am a proponent of the mindset that learning...

...when the student cannot clearly articulate her own problem. In addition to my experience at Hamilton, I spent a summer teaching science to 4th and 5th graders with Exploration Summer Programs and a Summer teaching chemistry to 8th graders with Breakthrough Collaborative. In both of these programs I developed my own curriculum and planned all of the lessons. I learned how to explain concepts in an engaging and clear manner to a wide age range...
