Award-Winning History Tutors in Brockton, MA

...visited 52 different towns and cities across much of Western Europe while living in France. While there, I was an English Teaching Assistant in Tours, located along the banks of the Loire river. I taught at a school of predominately underprivileged students of North African descent and was lucky enough to learn about their traditions and experiences in France. I have a real passion for travel and exploring other cultures. Especially all their food! I...

...will need to succeed in college and the workplace, including study skills, note-taking skills, research skills, writing skills,and critical thinking skills, especially about current events. I agree with Jefferson on the necessity of well-informed voters to a functioning democracy. I also believe that learning should be fun, whenever possible, while admitting that, particularly in high school, students must often "get through" subjects they do not find fun. I feel I should acknowledge that I consider...

...about financial literacy. It's my pleasure to take my work in international education home: I have several years experience tutoring at the middle school and high school levels. I've helped students learn study skills, complete homework assignments, prepare for tests, brush up on subjects of weakness, and even how to translate Latin like a pro. I look forward to getting to know you, and doing whatever I can to help you through classes!... The first step to teaching well is to listen to your students. No one learns exactly the same way as someone else, so it's vital to get to know your students as individuals and teach according to how they learn best.

...decided to become a tutor because my math tutor (from 8th-12th grades) took me from hating math to enjoying and succeeding in it. I want to help others make that same transition--a bad teacher or tough class can crush a student's innate curiosity, but a good tutor can restore it. I currently tutor students in the social and biological sciences (elementary school through college level), reading and writing, and in standardized test preparation. I am...

...German. While in college, I worked as a writing tutor both at Connecticut College and at the US Coast Guard Academy. As a writing tutor, I assisted students with all stages from the writing process, from brainstorming and drafting, to research strategies and proper citation techniques. By working for two very different universities, I have experience working with a variety of students in multiple subjects, ranging from English and History papers at Connecticut College to...

...the Year. I am available for tutoring in reading, writing, social studies, and Italian. My favorite subject to tutor is reading. I love to read and want others to help others to develop the skills and passion to enjoy a good book! As a teacher, I love working with students. Tutoring is even better than teaching because I get to devote all my energy and focus onto one student! I look to leverage the strengths...

...support. Prior to moving to Virginia, I worked in program coordination for a California after school program and also substituted in the classroom, providing tutoring services for students from first to fifth grade. I have also tutored in supplementary educational services (SES) programs as an in-home tutor for middle school students (subjects include Middle School Algebra and Geometry, as well as English language arts) with a non-profit, and I have also taught ESL and English...

...my previous professors. This sparked my interest in tutoring, and the year after I graduated I tutored student athletes at the university in English, History and Mythology classes. I believe that all students are highly capable, they just need the proper tools to gain the confidence to succeed. Some students simply don't have all the information they need to do something well, but this doesn't mean that they are automatically "bad" at reading or writing...

Nelson Mandela writes, "Education is the most powerful weapon we can use to change the world". I wholeheartedly believe that. My passion for and conscientiousness in my academics has inspired my desire to be a tutor where I can hopefully help others and encourage them to embrace their education and the challenges that come with it, no matter how difficult they are.... I believe in guiding a student rather than simply telling them the answer. Questions are more important to ensure understanding of a certain subject, so I will go through problems step by step with students, knowing how much they understand, and asking them questions along the way. If they ask me if something is right, I will pose that question to them, telling them to explain to me how they arrived at the answer.

...my prerequisite courses to get into graduate school, I worked part-time as a tutor for Upward Bound. My favorite subjects to tutor are math, physics, chemistry and biology. I firmly believe that in order for a class to be interesting, the teacher must be passionate about the subject. I'm very passionate about the natural sciences, mathematics and language. As your tutor, I hope to impart some of that passion to you. Hopefully, we have a...
