Award-Winning IB Mathematics: Analysis and Approaches Tutors for Students in Massachusetts

...University before deciding to pursue a career in medicine. While completing my post-bacc at Harvard, I worked as a research assistant in the lab of the Chief of Nephrology at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and volunteered extensively. One of my favorite volunteer experiences was tutoring high school students from Dorchester and Roxbury. I taught my students English, Physics, Chemistry, Algebra, Trigonometry, Biology, and helped them with standardized test preparation. My personal tutoring style is...

...best motivator. Learning should be an enjoyable and enriching experience. I also believe that answers should not be readily given. To truly grasp a subject material, students need to engage their critical thinking and problem solving skills throughout the learning process. No one ever said that learning and studying would be easy, but I am confident that I can help ease the process for other students and even make it fun along the way!

...stay up to speed on their schoolwork. I specialize in many areas of math as well as computer science, biology and physics. When tutoring students, I draw on my own experience with learning the material to identify and address the obstacles they face. I believe that promoting a deeper level of understanding of the subject, as opposed to merely teaching to the test or problem set, will enable students to excel in the long-term.

...junior at Boston College, majoring in Computer Science and minoring in Marketing. I have tutored for two years through a small Tutoring volunteer program in the Twin Cities Metro area. I taught math, science, and ACT preparation for students eight to 15. This year I am a board member of the Women in STEM club at Boston College and row on BC's DI women's crew team. I enjoy teaching computer science, algebra, and calculus.

...math, I like to give my struggling students the confidence to admit what they know and do not understand and tackling subjects from a grassroots level up. I think understanding the "why" behind everything makes learning a lot easier, and my Physics background gives me an analytical thought process that allows me to tackle the "why" from multiple perspectives, allowing me to thoroughly explain concepts to students. I think learning is extremely important, and adding...

...health, climate change prevention, and LGBTQ+ rights. I have done private tutoring for the past three years with students in Elementary, Middle, and High School in a variety of school subjects including but not limited to Math, History, and Writing/Grammar. I am passionate about education and want to use my skillset and knowledge to help other students achieve their best selves. I'm from Denver, Colorado, and currently live in Boston and love to read, watch...

...I hope to share with you as you embark on your journey of learning. I love to help others to figure out things and make learning fun! I love to tutor in many science subjects like biology (cell biology, genetics, and molecular biology), chemistry (general chemistry, organic chemistry, biochemistry). I have also taken the MCAT, and I am willing to tutor in specific topics tested there as well (all the topics mentioned above, but also...

...news editor at my college daily, I have developed skills in writing and editing, and will help prime your essay so it is clear, effective and well-argued. I especially love writing college admissions essays my Common App essay won first place in the Stage of Life Writing contest in 2014. In high school, I taught math programs for gifted and talented youth in elementary school and middle school. I have also worked with students with...

...Boston. I have a masters in Special Education and work in all different subjects. I have a background in history and writing, but currently co-teach math and science classes, giving me skills and confidence across all subjects. I am a passionate and optimistic young adult who really enjoys working with teenagers. I feel as though I am always learning and open to new ways of thinking. I believe in each student's ability to succeed through...

...for travel and exploring other cultures. Especially all their food! I love to cook and bake, and attempt to bring some of my favorite French treats into my own home. I love tutoring French because I have a passion for spreading this appreciation for other cultures. I am originally from Cleveland, Ohio where I started learning French in my elementary school class. When I'm not tutoring or trying to teach myself something new, I love...

...where the student is doing the thinking. I teach interactively, asking questions, listening to students. explanations, and probing students to produce the correct answer for themselves. I want to model thinking and questioning strategies that will allow a student to be successful without a tutor; I endeavor always to work myself out of a job. When I'm not tutoring or teaching swim lessons, I enjoy reading (especially mystery and crime novels), distance running, and long...

...also helps students to become more effective learners. I often provide real-world examples to help students get excited about concepts. Also, I use practice problems so that my students can see their own improvement and gain confidence. These strategies help students to become better lifelong learners, and their benefits extend beyond the subjects I am teaching. In addition to teaching and learning, I love to exercise, play the acoustic guitar, read, and spend time with...

...have tutored students in a range of subjects including anatomy and physiology, high school English, SAT prep, and algebra. In my years as a tutor in the MA public school system and at UMass Amherst, I have worked with both high school and college-aged students. As a camp counselor and neuroscience researcher, I have worked with infants and children from 2 months to 13 years of age. I take the time to help my students...

...in subjects including AP Physics 1, AP Calculus AB/BC, Middle School Mathematics, Science, and Spanish, Regents Geometry, Regents Algebra, Regents Trigonometry, and US History. I understand how the young adolescent mind operates, and am able to employ several different teaching styles (e.g. visual, conceptual, verbal) due to my knowledge of the subject at hand. I also have much experience with adolescents through my tutoring experience, coaching ice hockey, and working at a summer camp. I...

...my tutoring around finding each students desired method of learning/problem solving and trying to apply that to the problems at hand. I have been tutoring or TAing since high school and hope to continue reducing stress and finding the best ways to learn for students of all ages. ABOUT ME: I graduated from Brown University with a Sc.B in Biomedical Engineering in May 2022 and am currently in my Gap year as I look at...

...Usually, by the end of the session, they find out that they need a lot less help than they thought! I have also done a fair amount of math and science tutoring with middle and high school students, which is almost easier, since full comprehension can be immediately and clearly demonstrated. I generally design some sort of worksheet in order to walk the student through the process of figuring out the general concept in a...

...students as a tutor in individual learning environments. I have also worked as a museum educator and a camp counselor. My goal is to help students by engaging them in their learning, setting challenges, and empowering them succeed. My passion is working with students until the "aha!" moment when students know how to solve a difficult problem. I tutor reading, writing, and history/social studies for all grades, U.S. History and Government, and SAT prep.

...where I received a Bachelor of Arts degree in Global Public Health. After college, I went on to get my Masters of Science in Biomedical Science at Tufts University School of Medicine.

I have an extensive background in biology and...

Hello! I'm a freshman at Harvard University planning to concentrate in applied mathematics. I'm passionate about individualized education, and I focus on teaching students to think critically and creatively. I have a wide range of experience tutoring both traditional and competition math, and I'm particularly interested in the potential that online and mobile platforms like Varsity Tutors have for reaching broader audiences.

Graduated on August 2023 from Wentworth Institute of Technology with a BCOS in Computer Science and Minors in Data Science and Applied Mathematics. Looking to tutor in Computer Science and Math subjects.
