Award-Winning Elementary Math Tutors in Lowell, MA

...always been Math and Science, especially Biology and Chemistry. I enjoy finding different approaches to math problems and have found ways to make all my students over the years understand the best way for them to solve different types of questions. This ability meant that I was often given students with various learning disabilities, since they knew I could make it work for those students. I believe that learning should be fun and that engaging...

...was responsible for teaching two undergraduate level engineering courses, requiring me to teach in both large classroom and one-on-one settings. I am most comfortable teaching quantitative sciences, although I also have experience teaching standardized tests and more qualitative subjects such as Biology or Chemistry. I am a born and raised Bostonian, having grown up in Reading, MA. I am a proud product of the Massachusetts Public School system. I am a die-hard Patriots fan, as...

...I'm a third year student at Boston University. I am currently studying Finance with a concentration in Investments. I've been tutoring for about four years now and I love it. I believe in a student-centered environment and I feel that students and tutors are a team. I love seeing when my students faces' light up when they finally understand the material that they've been struggling with. I believe that the tutor's sole purpose is to...

...the Loire river. I taught at a school of predominately underprivileged students of North African descent and was lucky enough to learn about their traditions and experiences in France. I have a real passion for travel and exploring other cultures. Especially all their food! I love to cook and bake, and attempt to bring some of my favorite French treats into my own home. I love tutoring French because I have a passion for spreading...

...year. I have helped many of my colleagues pass their classes and understand concepts in subjects they have trouble with. I also have great experience helping students much younger than myself, from elementary school through high school. My favorite subject to tutor is calculus, I believe the concepts of calculus are much simpler than most instructors make them out to be and that most problems in understanding them can be easily fixed with visual tools....

...Charter Public High School. I am excited to tutor a wide range of subjects, including SAT/ACT test prep, Writing/Reading, ESL, math (through Algebra I), and Spanish. When tutoring, I like to push my students to solve problems on their own with guidance from me only when necessary. I also like to have my students teach back concepts after I have explained them. The best test of whether a student has mastered a concept is if...

...in Mechanical Engineering and worked as a mechanical design engineer in the solar industry. During my time at Tufts, I was involved in tutoring Engineering Science and Physics to college students. Of the subjects that I currently tutor, I am most passionate about Math and Mechanical Engineering subjects. My approach to tutoring is to help students develop good practical problem-solving skills and tools that are applicable to a wide range of problems. I am an...

...college-level mathematics. The teaching style I have developed through my own experience, as well as keeping up with the results of physics education research, follows a Socratic principle. Students should be carefully guided as they pursue their own understanding, and should be able to experience for themselves the fun of figuring out the natural world. I also believe that physics and mathematics are languages, and that explicit recognition of this makes working with equations considerably...

...as well as experience in private, non-essential education (teaching with Education First in Quito, Ecuador). While I very much enjoy classroom teaching, the one-to-one or small-group teaching I did with Education First is something that I found to be most rewarding. Really being able to form close relationships with a small number of students and helping them grow was amazing. I aim to build these types of relationships and connections with students on their paths'...

...passion of mine. I enjoy seeing my students become increasingly more confident in their academics. As a patient, personable, and enthusiastic tutor, my philosophy on teaching has always been that fun is the best motivator. Learning should be an enjoyable and enriching experience. I also believe that answers should not be readily given. To truly grasp a subject material, students need to engage their critical thinking and problem solving skills throughout the learning process.
