...what doesn't. In tutoring, I focus on results, but not to exclusion. I want to provide the student with a meaningful experience. That is to say, I aim to cultivate an appreciation for math, science, and/or the humanities that will last into college and their career. Unwilling to compromise my love for language or my affinity for math and problem solving, I am currently pursuing a Master's degree in Computational Linguistics, the interface between computer...

...content, campaigns and stories for MTV, Disney Channel, Discovery Channel and PBS. Currently, I'm a Copywriter and Creative Consultant.

I earned my Bachelor's degree in math and music from Wesleyan University in 2006. Since then, I have worked as a math tutor for various tutoring agencies. I most enjoy teaching middle-schoolers, high-schoolers and older, especially in subjects like Algebra, Pre-Calculus, and SAT. Besides math, I enjoy writing Classical music.... I try to personalize my teaching by addressing the student's strengths and weaknesses. I also try to think of more than one method to solve any problem.

...tutor with 10+ years of experience, and a passion for helping students reach the peak of their potential. My goal is to work with students to find what is most effective for them, rather than forcing them into one homogenous method.

...from Muhlenberg college with Honors in Chemistry. It was in my freshman year at Muhlenberg that I was first trained as a tutor. Ever since I have been tutoring Math, Chemistry and standardized tests. Tutoring is a pleasure to me, I particularly enjoy helping students reach that 'aha' moment, where they gain an insight into a particular concept. As of January 2012 I have tutored more than 20 students for a total of nearly 500...

...a great scholarship. But more than the immediate freedom of college and a new state, my investment in my own education gave me an array of skills that have helped me in all areas of life: the ability to improvise in unfamiliar situations, to persuade and argue effectively, and to formulate interesting research questions that eventually got me admitted to highly competitive graduate programs. There's nothing I love more than helping other students realize how...
