Zane
AP Calculus AB Tutor • +56 Subjects
Everybody learns, and everybody learns differently. The importance of pedagogy, the practice of teaching, cannot be overstated. It is not enough to share knowledge; knowledge must be communicated. This is the philosophy by which I have tutored and by which I currently tutor. With 4th grade students and with college-age students, with students in America and with students in Japan, I have helped new ideas and information take root and blossom to the satisfaction of student and tutor alike. I love those moments of recognition as someone internalizes knowledge, when an unfamiliar idea becomes familiar, and the creative ability such moments foster. My aim as a tutor is to understand how my students learn, so that they can do so most efficiently.

PSAT Writing Skills Tutor • +107 Subjects
I believe that all learning begins with curiosity; if a first little spark of interest can be kindled, understanding will soon follow. During my time spent serving as a volunteer tutor during both my high school and undergraduate years, I was able to help many students increase their knowledge of History, English Literature, and Grammar. Additionally, I was also able to help others gain the skill sets necessary for accomplished essay writing and SAT Verbal Test Preparation. My goal is to always guide the student towards a deeper comprehension of the subject matter, with development of the corresponding techniques and sense of confidence necessary for success.

Sonali
Middle School Math Tutor • +46 Subjects
Boston University Bachelors of science in Neurobiology. I have been tutoring ages K-12 for 6+ years now - through various public and private sessions, highschool + AP classes, college classes + TAing. I tutor a wide variety of subjects, and specifically very passionate about tutoring all levels of Biology and Chemistry, ACT prep, and AP English, History, and Science tests. There is something so rewarding about breaking down large, complex mechanisms and concepts into understandable parts. I approach every session with a clear goal for each student's needs - whether that is a specific problem or just general content review. I've strengthened my ability to identify specific obstacles and turn them into opportunities for growth and I emphasize active learning and practice in my sessions, creating an engaging and dynamic environment where students feel comfortable to ask questions and discover solutions.

Valerie
AP English Literature and Composition Tutor • +13 Subjects
I have a B.A. from the University of Pennsylvania, where I majored in Communication through Annenberg and minored in Consumer Psychology through Wharton. Since graduating in 2019, I have amassed experience in both business and creative communication. From 2019 to 2024, I focused on public relations in highly regulated spaces, small business marketing, and analytics. Throughout my career, my communications work has resulted in local (e.g., Philadelphia Business Journal), trade (e.g., American Banker), and national (e.g., Wall Street Journal), coverage for my clients. I am also a singer, songwriter, and recording artist. In 2023, I released my independently produced debut record, WITHIN THE CONFINES OF YOU (WTCOY). In 2024, I followed it up with WTCOY: The Visual Odyssey, a short film that brought my music to life and has been recognized in film festivals like the Miami Independent Cinematic Fest, the International Indie Film & Screenplay Festival, and the Women's Bioscope. While I enjoy tutoring a variety of subjects, I focus on English, Literature, and Writing. I believe that all people should be strong written communicators no matter their discipline, especially in the artificial intelligence era. Written communication promotes critical thinking and empowers individuals to express themselves clearly. I prioritize helping students find their unique voice (no matter the genre they are writing), because I believe that this is what ultimately cultivates a love of writing.

Frequently Asked Questions
A tutor can work with you to identify the core argument you're trying to make and help you craft a thesis that's specific, defensible, and compelling. They'll guide you through organizing your essay logically—ensuring your introduction hooks readers, your body paragraphs support your thesis with clear topic sentences, and your conclusion reinforces your argument rather than just summarizing. This personalized feedback helps you move beyond formulaic essay structures to writing that actually persuades.
Many students have interesting thoughts but struggle to support them with relevant evidence and logical reasoning. A tutor helps you learn to select the strongest examples, explain how each piece of evidence connects to your thesis, and anticipate counterarguments. They'll show you how to move beyond simply listing facts to building a chain of reasoning that makes your argument inevitable—which is what separates a good essay from a great one.
Effective revision isn't just fixing typos—it's rethinking your argument at multiple levels. A tutor can teach you to revise in stages: first looking at big-picture issues like organization and argument strength, then refining paragraph flow and clarity, and finally polishing grammar and style. They'll help you develop a revision strategy that works for your writing process, so you're not overwhelmed and you're actually improving the essay rather than just changing words.
Writer's block often stems from unclear thinking rather than lack of ideas. A tutor can help you work through this by using strategies like outlining, freewriting, or discussing your ideas aloud before you write. They can help you identify whether you're struggling with understanding the prompt, developing your thesis, or structuring your argument—and then address the actual problem. This personalized approach gets you unstuck and moving forward faster than staring at a blank page.
Grammar is foundational—errors distract readers and undermine your credibility—but style and voice are what make your writing memorable and persuasive. A tutor helps you prioritize: in early drafts, focus on getting your ideas down and organizing them clearly; in revision, strengthen your argument and clarity; only in final editing should you polish grammar. They'll also help you develop an authentic voice that fits your audience and purpose, rather than writing in a stiff, overly formal tone.
MLA, APA, and Chicago style have specific rules, and getting them wrong can cost you points. A tutor can teach you the fundamentals of whichever style your assignment requires—how to format in-text citations, create a works cited or references page, and integrate quotes smoothly into your writing. Rather than memorizing every rule, they help you understand the logic behind citations (giving credit, helping readers find sources) so you can apply it correctly and confidently.
Literary analysis requires moving beyond plot summary to examining how an author uses specific techniques—imagery, dialogue, point of view, symbolism—to create meaning. A tutor helps you learn to choose precise textual evidence, explain what that evidence reveals about the author's purpose or theme, and avoid over-interpreting. They'll teach you to write about literature analytically rather than emotionally, supporting your interpretations with concrete examples from the text.
Generic feedback like "needs more detail" or "awkward phrasing" doesn't tell you how to improve. A tutor provides specific, actionable feedback—pointing out exactly where your argument weakens, suggesting how to strengthen a particular paragraph, or showing you why a sentence is confusing. They also help you understand the underlying writing principle so you can apply it to future essays, turning feedback into lasting improvement rather than just fixing one assignment.
