Award-Winning History Tutors serving Cambridge, MA

...what their goals are and how they learn as individuals. As an undergraduate and in graduate school, my best experiences have been those where respect was shown to me as a student. From that respect, my confidence was allowed to grow and self respect for my own growing abilities flourished as well. Only then did I come to understand that taking a programmed approach to students was not the key to success. Seeing each student...

...coursework at Harvard. I studied comparative literature (French, Italian, and English) as an undergrad alongside my studies of classics. For my masters degree, I had to pass a three-part exam at Harvard on the history of German literature. My knowledge of literature is broad and deep! I earned a 174 on the LSAT (99th percentile). Ready to get to work and dive into the weeds? Want to know more about what working together would look...

...students of all ages and from all over the world and, in all honesty, I can say that my students have been very pleased with my style of teaching as well as the personal interactions I have had with them. In addition to teaching, I have been a political activist and writer for most of my adult life. My wife and I are the proud parents of a recently turned 21 year old young man...

...been working for over 8 years in education, most recently as a Teaching Assistant in a psychology/neurology class of 140+ freshmen. I have worked at school and camp programs with children of all ages. I first started tutoring juniors and seniors as a freshman in high school when Marblehead High School allowed me into the upperclassmen's Western Philosophy class; since then, I have tutored all major subjects and tests, as well as several specialties, from...

...range of subjects, I am most passionate about Spanish, Writing, and Multicultural Studies. In my experience helping struggling students prepare for Standardized Tests, we always seem to have the most fun prepping for the Critical Reading and Writing portions of the exams. I firmly believe every student can become more confident and independent with the help of a tutor who takes the time to get to know each student's unique learning style. I believe education...

...both in the classroom and one-on-one, I believe that the best way for a student to learn material is to move beyond recall and work toward synthesis and analysis for complete understanding. When I’m not teaching or tutoring, I love to read history books (especially those about Robert Kennedy), run (long distances – in all types of weather), and travel. The most incredible place I have been is Tanzania – if I hadn’t packed three...

...focus on areas of difficulty as they appeared. My skills, experiences, and belief that every student should be approached as an intelligent individual with their own motivation, entry point into a subject, and areas of strength and weakness inform my teaching style. I believe strongly in approaching students based on how they will best learn, whether that means finding a new way to explain, better examples or applications of information, or a wider array of...

...Angeles and taught middle school math for Young Eisner Scholars, an organization that helps prepare gifted students from South Los Angeles for elite high schools and colleges. While there, a big part of my work involved preparing students for the Upper-Level ISEE. I began my PhD in Philosophy at Boston University in 2016 and served as a Teaching Fellow for undergraduate courses in the 2017-18 academic year. I took the LSAT in September 2017 and...

...School in Brockton, Massachusetts where I graduated in 2019 being 7th in my class. While in high school, I tutored for AP Calculus as historian of National Honor Society. I also have lots of experience working with children aged 1-12 through babysitting and camp counseling jobs! As a very organized and serious student, I am very committed to my education as well as yours! I don't have one teaching or learning style, but like to...

...most passionate about teaching math, economics, and the SAT. I love the process of walking a student through a problem as the logic behind it slowly starts to unfold and they finally achieve that "AHA" moment. I have tutored students of all ages from elementary school to college, but I believe the skills and techniques I have acquired teaching young kids can be applied to students of all ages. I like to have fun with...

I have taught in both a classroom setting and in one-on-one tutoring sessions. I look forward to working with you!

...memorization, synthesis, and learning how to craft an argument for historical writing. Given my own experiences with academics and tutoring, I can offer support across a range of subjects including middle and high school math, high school biology and chemistry, and writing and study support in English and History. A little more about me! I am currently living and working in Boston, where I grew up. I received my BA in History of Science from...

...a lead teacher for three months during my 2019-2020 teaching residency. I tutor subjects as diverse as Spanish, English Language Arts, History, and use of the music software Logic Pro X. My favorite subjects to tutor are English Language Arts and History, because I have always been passionate about building strong reading comprehension and writing skills, creatively applying rules of written English, and analyzing interesting historical events. I am a huge trivia fan, and I...

...and then decided to stay for graduate school. I go to Boston University and study Global Development Policy. I have always been passionate about educating others. My favorite part of teaching is when the student has the "lightbulb moment," when you can see they truly understand what you are trying to teach them! My specialty subjects are in the humanities but I do have a background in the math and sciences. I enjoy being active...

...with math to overcome obstacles and turn confusion into success. I specialize in all levels of math up to and through precalculus. Everyone thinks about numbers and equations differently, and I want to help each student I meet in and individual, patient, and personalized way. I'm a graduate of Boston University, where I studied theatre and biology, but was very active in my high school's math curriculum. Outside of academia, I'm passionate about theatre, acting,...

...communicate what are sometimes complex ideas. This practice of working with non-native English speakers has helped me to refine my teaching style and methods. I want to stress how satisfying this process is: I can think of no situation outside of a typical classroom in which one can unpack dense textbook theory and make it palatable for people of varying interests and reading skills. I feel that breaking down literary concepts in this manner is...

I love test taking and am a recent Dartmouth College graduate. I have experience with 12 AP exams, SAT (99th percentile), GRE, SAT subject tests, ACT, english, and much more. I enjoy adapting to individual students study and learning styles and making work more efficient and productive. In my spare time I run obstacle courses like Spartan Races.... I tailor individual study plans to help dedicated students reach their full potential with efficiency and accuracy.... I...

...on scientific theories, to scholarship essays. In high school I was a Link Crew tutor for three years, making myself available for tutoring sessions after school for whatever subject students required help in. But enough about my qualifications. If you are looking for a tutor, you probably want someone who will not only help you meet and exceed your own goals, but also someone you can connect and get along well with. So here are...

...other academic subjects. I bring a compassionate and collaborative approach to teaching. I strongly believe that a tutor must treat his or her student as a teammate and not as someone who merely needs instruction. The goal of any tutoring session should be to bring out and foster a student's own capacity to understand and excel in a given field, which begins with respect. I am currently pursuing a graduate study in biology- where my...
