Award-Winning Linear Algebra Tutors serving Newton, MA

...I've also worked extensively teaching swim lessons for the past five years, particularly to beginners. Both in and out of the pool, I believe that a good lesson is one 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;...

...more like a personal trainer than a teacher. I've seen how to improve 10 deciles on standardized test--enough to change your options to the next tier of schools--in 3 months. I spent 3 months and 450 hours studying the LSAT. Some of it was very productive, some of it wasn't . As students prepare to embark on a long investment of their time and efforts on this incredibly decisive test, I want to share what...

...worked all four years of college as a tutor, study group leader and teaching assistant. My professional life was also in the field of education until I left to start my Masters in the fall of 2012.

...approach doesn't work. I also try to teach the process of solving problems, which students can use for themselves as they build confidence. I have a Masters Degree in Chemistry from Cornell, where I was a teaching assistant for Introductory Chemistry, Analytical Chemistry, and Physical Chemistry. While pursuing a PhD at RPI, I was a volunteer tutor for Chemistry and Chemical Engineering students. While working in industry, I taught my co-workers Statistics, Experiment Design, and...

...the subject being discussed. I have found that engaging with the student and opening a line of communication helps me to determine what the focus of a session should be and how directly to approach learning specific topics. Some students require more direct visual step-by-step examples whereas others can benefit by completing a problem individually and then reviewing errors. Therefore, I try to keep in mind that figuring out a students learning process by asking...

I have helped tutor before at my college's math and computer science center, and I enjoy working through both math and coding problems with students. My primary languages are Java and Python and I am interested in working in cybersecurity. I am also fluent in SQL, R, and Assembly, and I am proficient in C. I have taken math through Calculus AB.

...with is immensely rewarding. In my approach to tutoring, I try to constantly respond to feedback from my students. If the way I am explaining something isn't clicking, I try to come at it from a different angle. I believe everyone can excel in mathematics, and through tutoring I hope to help as many students as I can reach their educational goals. Outside of academic interests, I love cooking, reading about politics, and watching horror...

Last Fall, I started a Master's in Robotics at Northeastern University in Boston, MA. I'm passionate about using technology to improve people's lives, not to simply make their lives "easier". I pride myself as being extremely...

...with just a few key mindset shifts (often missing in school systems), anyone can grow into a confident problem solver. I gave a TEDx talk all about how small changes in how we approach math can unlock significant results. I work with students ages 1218 at all skill levels, and my goal is always to meet you where you are, spark genuine curiosity, and guide you to think more independently and creatively in math and beyond.

...each student thinks. I have a Bachelor of Science in Pure and Applied Mathematics, with a strong foundation in algebra, number theory, analysis, combinatorics, and proof-writing. I've worked with students of many ages in both formal and informal settings, from helping my own children work through challenging math concepts to teaching in the middle school curriculum. I am especially drawn to topics that combine logical reasoning with creativity, such as algebra and problem-solving strategies, and...

...is a lifelong love. I believe strongly in the ability of education to improve one's quality of life; I still enjoy learning new topics every day. I want students to be able to use their knowledge to solve problems; pure memorization simply to pass a test is not my idea of a good education. In my spare time, I enjoy reading the classics I missed when I was younger, playing chess and playing the piano.
