Award-Winning Elementary Math Tutors for Students in Cranston, RI

...they need to do their best. As a teacher in the classroom, I'm dedicated to helping my students grow in their abilities, whatever it takes. Sometimes it isn't just about how I teach a concept to students-- it's about how I teach that one concept to that one student in particular. I find such an importance in individualizing instruction so that it is easy to understand and specific to student needs, and as a tutor,...

...This is also why I tutor children of all ages in standardized test preparation. I know tests are a formidable challenge to many people, but I believe that they can be fun if a student feels prepared and confident. In my mind, a test is an opportunity to display hard work and knowledge, not something to be feared. My tutoring style is very focused, fun, and relaxed. I believe students do best when in a...

...a B.A. in Psychology, focused on animal behavior. For four years, I played varsity soccer and tutored many students in a variety of subjects - algebra, calculus, psychology, physiology, physics, biology, and statistics. My teaching style targets each unique student's learning style and way of analyzing. That is my first targeted observation before I can truly begin tutoring with any true impact. I have spent the last two years out of school managing an organic...

...test in physics, and AP Physics 1,2& C. For mathematics, I tutor in elementary mathematics, Algebra 1,2,3,4, Geometry, Pre-Calculus, Trigonometry, Calculus 1,2,3 and AP Calculus AB/BC, Multivariable Calculus, SAT math and both SAT math subject tests. Of these subjects, my favorite to tutor are any of the calculus courses since that is my favorite area of mathematics and I find it rewarding to share that interest with others. In my spare time, I enjoy going...

...lessons that accommodate for students diverse learning styles, IEP's, 504's, cultural and social emotional needs. I have offered my students a variety of assessments to provide them with opportunities to showcase their skills and knowledge. I consistently hold students accountable for their learning and hold high expectations within all lessons. I have allowed families and students to bring their culture into our classroom which has allowed me to build a sense of community as well...

...good challenge, and the biggest challenge out there (in my opinion) is education. Education is the pathway to intellectual curiosity which hopefully can continue to define more and more people. Seeking to understand is what makes us human after all. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy curling up by the fire with a good book and a cat, watching and talking about TV or movies, Boston sports, science-fiction, anime, running, cooking and eating food, and, of...

...and I will be attending Northeastern University to continue my education with a Ph.D. in Physics. I love helping students succeed, and I bring a strong Math and Science background to help students struggling with these difficult subjects. I believe that the secret to succeeding in these subjects is not in memorizing solutions and equations, but by developing problem solving skills so students will know how to approach and set up problems in any STEM...

...and experience to help students understand what is important to succeed on their tests. My non-academic interests are all various forms of gaming. I have been a competitive Magic: the Gathering player for over 13 years. Otherwise I play many video games mostly older series: Touhou, Guitar Hero, and n64 speedruns. My current focus is on danmaku games, and I am currently working on programming my own game in that genre; I someday hope to...

...math to enjoying and succeeding in it. I want to help others make that same transition--a bad teacher or tough class can crush a student's innate curiosity, but a good tutor can restore it. I currently tutor students in the social and biological sciences (elementary school through college level), reading and writing, and in standardized test preparation. I am also an avid debater, and coach debate at a high school in Providence, RI. When I...

...it also leads to the biggest "AH-HA!" moments. I believe that students learn best when they are comfortable, and it is my ultimate goal as a teacher and a tutor is to frame the subject in a fun and exciting way that can best reach learners of all types. On weekends, you can find me volunteering at the Rhode Island Parrot Rescue, providing socialization and enrichment for over one hundred abused and unwanted exotic birds.

...tutoring for over three years. I have worked with young kids taking elementary-level math, middle school students taking Pre-Algebra and Algebra, high school students taking Pre-Calculus and Calculus, college students taking Calculus I/II and Linear Algebra -- and any level in between! Tutoring is one of my favorite activities, because every student I work with teaches me something new about my field. In addition to doing math and writing French poetry, I play the piano,...

...computer science, and New England School of Law | Boston, with a law degree. I am a practicing attorney, but my passion has always been to teach. I have taught children, friends, colleagues, clients, and subordinates throughout my life and it is the single most enjoyable part of my job. I strongly believe that, teaching a student the "why" of something is far more important than simple memorization; it is this understanding of the material...

...future mathematics courses at Bridgewater. This class required me to teach to a variety of students that were at different ages and mathematical abilities. Teaching this class each semester brought on different challenges and obstacles. I overcame these obstacles by planning and organizing the day to day classroom activities and also making myself available to my students to come for extra help. Connecting with each and every one of my students brought joy to the...

...interest in tutoring when I was a teenager. I was interested in volunteering in my community and took part of a program to tutor kids within elementary schools. I'm comfortable with a wide range of subjects but I'm most passionate about History, English and Literature. These are topics I love discussing in general and I'm always happy to have a chance to help someone else find enjoyment in the subject. Trying to encourage of love...

...a particular exam, or for a course that is uninteresting but a prerequisite, which is why I have developed methods over the years to effectively study the material while enjoying the process. Studying can and should be entertaining, and that makes retaining the material easier, and taking the test or passing the course less stressful. I also know that preparing for the test format and developing mental endurance are as important as course material.... To make...

...and the physical sciences. I worked hard in high school, undergrad, and graduate school to expand my knowledge on the subject and become an expert in math. I know that math isn't everyone's favorite subject, so I'm here to share the tips and tricks that I've picked up in algebra, calculus, statistics, and trig with everyone. I'm always happy to lend a hand to those who need help. If you're having trouble in mathematics, let...

...person undergo the "AHA" moment is one of the best experiences, I believe, someone can have. I have taught briefly at the high school level and assisted at the graduate level, and I have found that I am skilled at adjusting and catering my teaching abilities to students with different past experiences that require different ways of learning. I am currently a practicing biostatistician and a PhD student in biostatistics at the University of Massachusetts,...

...this because when a student's focus is solely on memorization, they often quickly forget the material due to time or stress. However, the skills one gains from learning how to think through problems are much more stable and flexible. This flexibility allows for those skills to be used in multiple subjects, and towards more advanced learning. Now, a little about me. In the future, I plan to go to medical school and become a general...
