As a language tutor I want to help eliminate that stress and anxiety that students go through and make it a more pleasant learning experience.

My mission is to be the tutor I wish I had growing up. As someone with different learning needs, I strive to find the most effective methods for each individual learner!

...This both motivates the learner toward a clear goal and reduces their anxiety. I also know that students have different brains that respond to different methods, and I optimize the student's learning styles to accelerate their learning process. For example, I incorporate music and film when I know it can expand the technical into the real. This allows the student to attach schoolwork to real life as it is experienced by native speakers of the...

The existence of the Catalan language really set the...

...and exciting experience for me. I currently tutor a variety of academic and test preparation subjects. I'm passionate about helping students because I have had some difficulty with certain subjects myself, and I understand the frustration of what that is like.

Outside of tutoring, I enjoy reading fiction...

...I have tutored students, including some non-native speakers, who struggled with essay-writing and grammar, syntax, and usage issues. My favorite subject to tutor was definitely AP Language and Composition mostly because of my interest in the subject itself. A lot of students know how to write a good essay but really struggle with this particular AP material because it requires you to take a step back and dissect the specific methods and structures at play...

...general chemistry, undergraduate organic chemistry lab, and advanced organic chemistry lab. During my years doing undergraduate and graduate research, as well as my time spent as a postdoctoral researcher and research scientist, I supervised undergraduates starting their own research careers.

My goal is to make sure my students feel comfortable and enthusiastic about learning. It...

...a senior at St. Joseph's College in Patchogue, NY majoring in History and Secondary Education. I have been tutoring on and off for the past three years. What I've learned the most is that there is no one size fits all approach and each student deserves specific time and energy devoted to them. In my spare time I enjoy reading, riding my bike, hanging out with friends, and playing or watching baseball.

...Language and Literature. I spent a year in Martinique (French West Indies) teaching English in a local middle school. I've worked as a home tutor in a variety of subjects for middle school and high school students in London.

I find tutoring so worthwhile...
