I spent this past fall volunteering with Citizen Schools, a government organization which places teachers in disadvantaged public schools throughout...

...working towards a bachelor of arts in classics and comparative literature at Wellesley College in Massachusetts. I've been tutoring in one form or another for four years, and I'm passionate about sparking joy in students for the subjects that have brought me so much fulfillment, as well as granting students autonomy over their own academic passions. I tutor pretty much anything related to English, history, and classics, as well as test prep for the relevant...

...New York and Seattle in upcoming summers. Dylan discovered his passion for mentoring on the lacrosse field in high school while helping to run summer youth lacrosse camps, and became involved in academic tutoring through his high school soon after.

...asked me to tutor his friend's college-age grandson in chemistry. We met for several hours a night, two to three nights a week, and although we worked hard, we both had a lot of fun. He improved greatly in the time I worked with him, and it was incredibly rewarding to watch him master concepts that he once found difficult. I hope to be able to help students understand the material they are studying and...

I have also scored a 5 on nine different AP tests so I'm capable of helping other students prepare for their AP exams. For fun, I play the flute and practice martial arts. I am constantly reading and I particularly enjoy science fiction and fantasy. I find tutoring both...

...to build upon basic problem-solving and allow for a clearer understanding of the material. My greatest skill when it comes to this higher-level understanding is my ability to break down concepts. I have often found that the best way to grasp a concept is to break it down until it can be described with basic, familiar terminology.
