Award-Winning High School English Tutors serving Baltimore, MD

...all ages, both formally and informally. Among many experiences, I've taught SAT prep in a classroom setting, willed a friend in high school to pass his AP Physics exam by studying with him every day before practice, stayed up many a night in college meticulously editing essays for friends, and been a Big Brother (the program, that is). My philosophy around tutoring simply revolves around developing a vested interest in students' successes. I have some...

I am here to help you learn, grow, and achieve. With patience, and dedication, we will accomplish every educational goal you set for yourself. I have a background with algebra, and affinity for writing. I look forward to hearing from you!... Knowledge develops through patience. In my opinion, the only way to learn is through trial and error. Sometimes, when we run into obstacles and confusion, it can be really frustrating. I am here to help...

...Whether it is simply tailoring an essay to get it to its best possible form, or understanding the processes that will make the writing process easier the next time around. Whether it is delving into a new field to excel in a class or getting ahead for the next year. Whatever your goals, whatever your age or level of experience, I am excited to get to know you and work industriously and patiently to help...

...assign a term paper instead of an exam as our midterm or final! I think college entrance essays, particularly, can be overwhelming and stressful to the student. I believe that by tackling them with a logical approach and a solid action plan, these essays do not have to be such a source of anxiety. I also have experience preparing students for entrance exams, such as the ISEE and the college-level ACCUPLACER, by teaching test-taking strategies...

...trained me in the critical thinking skills necessary for teaching Grammar, Foreign Languages, ESL, Math, and standardized test prep. I started tutoring when I was 15, and I was trained as a Student Teaching Intern with Breakthrough in 2010. I've tutored students ranging in age from 8 to 88. I love working with students individually or in small groups, and I readily change my lesson plans based on each individual's learning style.

I tutored at a writing center while an undergraduate student, and became an Advanced Certified Tutor through the College Reading and Learning Association. I also taught English classes in Russia for 2 years. I enjoy tutoring because of the opportunity it presents to constantly adapt lessons and teaching styles to best meet the needs of individual students.

...to Ukrainian students in grades two through seven. I have also tutored students in primary school and high school in introductory Latin and led a tutorial for college students in introductory Attic Greek. I taught extra-curricular remedial courses in composition and reading comprehension for grades six through eight and was responsible for submitting weekly progress reports to parents and teachers. I have also tutored adult learners who were studying for their Graduate Equivalency Degree (GED)...

...overarching goal of my teaching. I want students to have the ability to use what they learned in real-life situations. I want my students to be intrinsically motivated when it comes to German language and culture. Essentially, I want them to go to Germany, Austria, Switzerland, or Liechtenstein, etc and succeed. I am always friendly with my students. I want learning to be immersive and authentic. I want students to have the same experience with...

...translator. Since returning to the United States in mid-2013, I have taught SAT Prep for a local nonprofit, worked as a copy editor for the Italian branch of Google Ads, and performed a year of national service with the City of Philadelphia through AmeriCorps VISTA. In Fall 2016, I will begin my JD studies at the Georgetown University Law Center, where I hope to focus on international and human rights law. I love using teaching...

...myself are working towards one goal: their acquisition of the skills, knowledge, and strategies necessary to succeed academically and enrich themselves personally. Frequently this means identifying weak foundational elements and building from there. Once these elements are identified, the learning process tends to be remarkably smooth and, dare I say, fun. In my spare time (I’m in law school so there really isn’t that much…) I enjoy spending time with my friends, going to movies/concerts,...

...dissertations. I tailor in-person or online tutoring sessions to each student, and work through problems of forming an argument, creating outlines, structuring work and finishing with a great conclusion. While grammar and sentence structure are key to presenting work in an optimal manner, the development of ideas and critical thinking are at the core of a good paper. Outside of academic work of reading, researching and writing, I love to travel abroad, play with my...

...can remember. I enjoy playing fantasy football, and if you ask my wife, I probably enjoy it a little too much. I have a 2 year old border collie/ shepherd mix named Darcy. I love action movies, especially the James Bond series, and I tear through John Grisham books. For my money, there is no better feeling than when a quality fountain pen flows with ease along well made paper. A little about my tutoring...

...While I enjoy History and American Literature immensely, I am most passionate about tutoring students who are interested in the improvement of their performance in either Spanish or French. I have always felt an affinity for teaching foreign language as my grandfather taught Spanish at Berkeley in California and my mother taught high school Russian and English. My approach to teaching language to others and to learning on my own is one based on identifying...

...tutoring mathematics one-on-one to high-school students. My goal is to improve and help solidify the student's understanding of the subject matter. With a better understanding, it is expected that the student will be motivated to approach problems with increased skill and eventually confidence. A student's insight is important to solving mathematics and calculus problems. Sometimes this insight is based on physical intuition--but it does not need to be. I spend time to ensure that the...

...Biotechnology at John Hopkins University with an expected graduation date of May 2026. I received my Bachelor's of Science in Biology and Bachelor's of Art in Hispanic Linguistics from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in May of 2022. I went on to teach 6th and 8th grade science in Onslow County for 2 years until starting my Master's degree. I am passionate about education and look forward to helping your student excel...

I'm originally from Boston and I graduated from Wesleyan University in Connecticut, where I majored in Government and Sociology. During my junior year, I studied abroad in Copenhagen, Denmark.

I have a lot of experience working with students who learn differently, and am very familiar with accommodation methodology for individual students. I currently teach at the Seton...

...candidate in English at the University of Maryland, where I teach a variety of college level courses, including composition and literature courses. I am very invested in working one-on-one with students on critical writing and critical reading skills. Both sets of skills involve analytical thinking, but they also involve creative thinking. It is the interplay between the analytical and the creative that I find most enjoyable about tutoring and teaching. In my free time, I...

...school, passing all of them, and am very confident with College Board tests. I have helped students in a variety of subjects, but my favorites are Physics, Math, English, and SAT test prep. I strongly believe that every student has the capability to learn anything, as long as the teacher is willing to adapt the lesson plan appropriately. As such, I tailor my tutoring sessions to the individual student to ensure that no time is...

...help inner-city children with their school-work while educating them about the environment. While working here, I researched and wrote about the beneficial effects education has. In 2012 I graduated with a B.S. in Environmental Biology, and since I've graduated, I've held tutoring jobs, an internship at the Environmental Protection Agency, an English school in Quito, Ecuador, and an international school in Washington, DC. I'm dedicated, energetic and creative, I'm fluent in both English and Spanish,...
