Raphael: Joliet tutor

Certified Tutor

I'm currently a Sophmore at Dartmouth College in Hanover, New Hampshire working to earn a double degree in Economics and Government. For the past four years since I was 16 years old, I've been tutoring fellow peers and younger students across various subject areas, most notably mathematics and social studies. In my senior year of high school I was the Tutor Head of a student-run tutoring company a friend created called Blue Owl Tutors. At Blue Owl Tutors I helped recruit new tutors, engaged parents into how we function as a company, and gave advice to tutors. I mostly tutored in the following subjects: Algebra, Geometry, Algebra II, SAT Math Preparation, APUSH, and the SAT U.S History Subject Test. I would say my tutoring style heavily revolves around review, quick testing, and study guides; I have found that students perform better if I make a mini-study guide during our session and give it to them to review.

Now at Dartmouth, I find myself tutoring other peers in Government classes and it's incredibly enjoyable for me because I meet new people and help them!
