...Boston University. I am studying Nutrition Science with a minor in Human Anatomy and Physiology on a pre-medical track. I have tutored children in grades K-6 in the Boston Public Schools for the last 2 years, but I have been working with students in classrooms my entire life. I have also worked with students with disabilities since the age of 12, so I am comfortable working students of all skill ranges. My specialty areas include...

...arts, music, and nature. I am very artistic and in my honest opinion, we can't do life without these things. I love to have fun. I'm a very cheesy person and I am always smiling but I also know when it's time to joke and be serious. Kids love me, for this reason, I'm always stuck at certain schools for a long term instead of the given time when subbing. Contact me for great results....

...but ask my students to challenge themselves. I want learning to become part of everyday life, not an obligation. Tutoring writing, in particular, allows me to really see the whole process of thinking for a student. From the formulation of an idea, to finding a voice, to going through the details of an argument, writing offers insight into the key learning practices of a student. I love to be a part of this process, guiding...

...publishing. I specialize in teaching academic reading and essay writing, test prep and college readiness, and editing and verbal skills. I aim to understand each student's individual goals and approaches to learning, and gear my tutoring sessions to the student's particular needs. I find that we learn best when we understand the "why" behind the content, paired with practical and tangible methods. I have worked with students across ages and skill levels, and with a...

...challenges to their individual learning. I have witnessed the not-yet-verbal approach of toddlers, the nonverbal gap with which AS students face, the frustrations of students working past dyslexia, and the anger of children from broken homes. I have learned that what most students want and need is not primarily to be told what to do and how to solve their problems, but first to be listened to. And so that is what I want to...

...to the specific needs of my students and find out which style is most effective for them. Each student is unique and each one learns differently, that's what makes tutoring so exciting for me! I love getting to know my students and working with them to achieve their learning goals. I graduated from Brown University with a bachelor's degree in Engineering. I am from Bolivia and speak fluent Spanish. Outside of academics I love playing...

My name is Suha Lim and I am a sophomore at Boston College. I am double majoring in Elementary Education and Music. I love to teach younger children but I also have experience teaching older students. I have been teaching all my life and I can't wait to help more students learn!

...to learn is to place yourself in a fun environment. As a tutor, I share this outlook on learning with my students by creating an engaging and gratifying environment conducive to the learning style of the individual with whom I am working. I am driven by my passion for science, English, writing, literature and Spanish. I am excited to revisit these academic interests as a tutor during my "gap year" before I attend medical school...

I am a recent college graduate with an A.B. in Education Studies from Brown University (Providence, RI). I have worked as a remote tutor for other online platforms throughout 2021. I am most passionate about English, especially literary analysis and essay writing. When I am not tutoring, I enjoy exercising with my dog.

I am passionate about teaching and ensuring that my students can get something valuable out of my sessions.

I believe that long term learning can be achieved by leveraging personal associations with learning key concepts/data points focused on time and place. By committing these time/place concepts/data to long term memory, we create a context (framework) upon which new concepts/data can more easily and efficiently be integrate and retained.

Are you ready to make mistakes and learn along the process? If so, you are at the right address. I am a Ph.D. in Comparative Literature with a focus on French, English and Anthropology and I will be more than happy to help you with those subjects. I have also studied Spanish for 9 years and would be happy to help you with beginner and intermediate level of Grammar.

...majority of the courses and subject matter I've dealt with involved African American authors, however, my initial literature foundation is deeply rooted in English literature (Middle Ages, 16th and early 17th century, the restoration and romantic periods). I am obsessed with everything from Beowulf to Keats and W.E.B. Du Bois to Ta-Nehisi Coats. As well as a few LGBTQ authors and literature sprinkled in between. After UCLA I began working in local politics in San...

I currently work as a School Counselor in a local high school while also tutoring students around the Boston area. In what seems like a previous life, I worked as an Assistant Director of Admission at Brown University, my alma mater, reading applications, meeting students, and giving presentations across the country. I have also taught SAT Prep to students both individually and in classroom settings. My favorite color is blue and my favorite ice cream...

...and editing. I am a strong believer that education opens doors for individuals. The most challenging or disinterested student often needs help jumping through the many hoops and over the many hurdles of education. At times, even students that are academically inclined, get stuck and need a little help to further inspire, advance, and enrich their education. In order to jump through these hoops and over these hurdles of education, students should understand why they...

...enjoy helping students take a subject that they struggle with and turn it into a subject they are interested in! I'm particually good with young children, but also do well with pre-teen, high school, and college level students. My favorite subjects to teach are reading, creative writing, and public speaking as these are my personal passions. It's important to me that my students also have fun! if they don't want to be in my classroom,...

...I am currently a sophomore in the Commonwealth Honors College at Salem State University. I am majoring in psychology, with a minor in creative writing, with a goal to pursue a career in music therapy. My approach emphasizes creativity and a sense of freedom within the respective student's work, while also ensuring that are they still able to have a grasp on the basic requirements of the work required. I believe tutoring is a great...

...as it has been a passion of mine throughout my entire life. My approach to tutoring is to do it with all the seriousness and focus it requires, while always being sure to lighten it a bit with a sense of humor (I got my start as a comedy writer while at Columbia). I have varied interests outside of tutoring, all of which tend to run toward the artistic. I am an avid film-goer and...

I am passionate about helping students learn about economics, math, history and anything else I can help with. I look forward to working with you!
