...student at Swarthmore College. While I'm pursuing a technical degree I have diverse interests and I believe that my liberal arts background help me connect and communicate effectively as a tutor. I want to help you or your child understand the core concepts of any field instead of rattling off formulas and techniques for specific questions. To me, the mentor/mentee relationship is one of the most important human relationships --I will take any request seriously...

I enjoy helping someone to get where he/she wants to or needs to go. I believe everyone is unique; therefore there isn't just one method in dong anything. Everyone is motivated by something. It is just a matter of finding what that motivation is. ... Find out the root of the problem and work to eradicate that. Not everyone has the same problem; therefore, one cannot use the same method to teach or to learn.... Discover...

...and into the working world. I also believe it is absolutely vital to create an environment in which students are comfortable asking questions, answering questions, and sharing their own ideas. I want my students to feel safe sharing ideas because this will facilitate the learning process and help reduce stress during teaching sessions. Finally, I believe strongly in the importance of learning from one's peers through social interactions. It is a great idea to practice...

...impacts the learning of our children, teens and adults. I have coached and tutored private clients with learning challenges in Maryland, Pennsylvania and New Jersey.I tutor a broad range of subjects and ages but am most passionate about resolving learning challenges in the elementary students.

...environmental sciences. With several years of teaching experience both at the university level and on an individual basis, I always try to adapt my techniques to students' abilities so that they are more enthused and able to understand, soak-in, and recall the information.

I have also received a Ph.D. in psychology from the University of New Hampshire. I tutor subjects including math, statistics, psychology, psychology GRE subject test prep, and writing.

...is essential to test taking, and learning in general. Tension and undue pressure leads to fuzzy and unnecessarily quick thinking which is more prone to error. I do not subscribe to the drill sergeant methodology, and tend to, in my own life, try to be relaxed while structured. In doing so, you can more effectively respond to the unexpected because your thinking is clear. There is enough pressure due to the very nature of these...

...a co-concentration in Elementary and Early Childhood Education. While at Albright, I was deeply involved with Academic Learning Center's tutoring program. I accumulated over 500 hours tutoring my peers in their college Math courses. I tutored mainly Calculus, but I also had the opportunity to train and mentor other new tutors. I helped them learn the importance of study skills, learning styles, and communication so they could more effectively help the students they tutored. Math...

...a self-prescribed phobia of math. By the end of the course, they were able to calculate standard deviations, perform regressions and understand the meaning of correlation. In addition, as a policy analyst and project manager, I understand the value of removing the stigma behind data and its usefulness for those who don't have the same love for numbers as I do. I've been able to perform complex data analysis and interpret the findings for colleagues...

...and fellow peers. I cannot describe the feeling I get when a student is finally able to achieve a concept, or make great progress in a subject area that proved difficult. I have been able to teach multiple Spanish classes because the Spanish teacher at the school in which I tutored resigned. I was able to engage the students and at times I had to create lessons on the spot. The experience is definitely one...

...ages across all subject areas. I enjoy teaching students in the subjects of Math and Science most, as I personally believe these are the corner stones of our society’s future. I've volunteered with many inner-city schools and enjoyed helping students grow both academically and personally. My tutoring methods resemble the often-heard analogy of "teaching one to fish" rather than "giving them a fish". In addition to covering course material, I also spend a lot of...

...Abby. I'm currently working at a public school in the Fishtown section of Philadelphia. I work hard to develop 1:1 or small group sessions with my students to help them find their confidence to succeed as I know they are capable of doing!

...is fun. I see math problems as puzzles that can be solved, we just have to do more thinking than with a typical puzzle. I am most confident with Algebra 1 & 2 and Geometry, so if you find yourself struggling in those areas, I could be of some assistance. I am a 20 year old Architecture student at Temple University in Philadelphia, PA. I take interest in all types of design and art. I,...

My personal values are as follows; - Hard Work - Caring - Integrity - Do the Right Thing - Do Things Right - Teamwork - Gratitude My goal is to nurture a partnership with students. Learning is a collaborative effort. Students need someone to work with as opposed to someone to work...

...subject on the SAT was math, although I also scored highly on both the reading comprehension and writing sections. I also took the LSAT this year, scoring a 168 (96th percentile), which I actually found frustrating because it was lower than every single one of my practice tests (with my personal best being a 174). Because of this, I learned from my mistakes and am able to tutor both the subject matter of the LSAT...
