...own talents and a valuable self-worth instead of trying to meet someone else's expectations, we can build students' confidence and academic success. We all have the right and responsibility to accept ourselves by defining who we are on our own terms and knowing what we stand for.

My teaching style is fluid; I like to incorporate other disciplines so that I can help my students develop their weaknesses by playing to their strengths. I believe strongly in the value of a liberal arts education, and I hope I can inspire students to think about how all academic subjects relate to each other.

Charles: Washington DC HSPT tutor
Certified HSPT Tutor in Washington, DC
A battle-tested veteran of the New York private school circuit, I graduated college in 2013 and now teach German in DC. I lived in German-speaking Europe for many years, and I majored its language, culture and history. I fully understand the many competing demands on a modern student's schedule. My tutees and I therefore tailor-make lesson plans based on their personal strengths and areas for improvement in order to fully capitalize on our time together.

Catherine: Washington DC HSPT tutor
Certified HSPT Tutor in Washington, DC
My objective as your tutor is to help figure out what your specific obstacles are -- what you know, what you don't know, what you need to learn -- and help you get past them. My tutoring is very goal-oriented and personalized for each client.... I believe anyone can learn anything; it just takes proper instruction, some effort, and then plenty of practice. What usually causes problems for students is instruction that is too fast, or that doesn't give adequate time and space for questions to ensure understanding, or lack of individual practice. For this reason, I find one-on-one tutoring to be the ideal learning environment -- the entire goal is for this one student to learn, understand, and practice.

Luckily, I was able to get solid math tutors throughout those years who taught me not only math skills, but also showed me how a good tutor can empower a student to solve problems on their own. I hope to not just support my students to...
