Award-Winning Linear Algebra Tutors serving Newton, MA

...a degree in a notoriously math heavy field, I've developed an intimate understanding of the hurdles many classes throw at students. With that understanding, I aim to apply my experience to meet my students where they're at. That means breaking down problems, working through examples, and using my previous experience to avoid common pitfalls. I'm well versed in engineering topics up to the college level, with a particular appreciation for Statistics and modeling related subjects...

...in order to take their learning to the next level. Sometimes a student knows the material, but just isn't confident about how they found an answer. Other times, the student may benefit from a real-life example. For instance, a sports fan may understand the concepts of percentages better if it's explained in terms of number of free throws in comparison to total points scored. Or maybe the method is converting the ingredients from a recipe...

...the "Aha!" moment a student gets during tutoring. That's why I'm here: I'm hoping to help students in need of assistance to soar academically. My specialty is in the STEM field, particularly mathematics. Since math subjects tend to build on each other and remain necessary in the engineering field, most math subjects are still fresh in my mind. I excel in STEM subjects and have a high affinity for theory, so I'm confident in my...

...tutoring experiences with middle school, high school, and freshman college students will surely help me understand the best way to teach you in order for you to understand and excel in your quizzes and examinations. I will accompany you in your journey of academic transformation through guided explanations for all the questions you might have, mock tests and assignments that build confidence. You will be much better than the state you were when we started.

...declare my major as Science and Business. I tutor mathematics from intro level to Calculus 2, chemistry (both organic and physical), physics (classical physics as well as some modern physics, like Relativity), English Literature and comprehension, SAT prep, ACT prep. My favourite subjects to tutor are physics and chemistry because of my extensive lab experience over the last few years. I love experiments and creating my own projects and I hope I can pass this...

...some students learn best through real-life examples, while others might prefer more abstract problem-solving. I want to help students by finding out how they like to learn and translating the content into a language they'll understand best. Many people don't currently enjoy math, seeing it as an obstacle. I want to change that for my students who feel this way; I hope that they come to love math as much as I do. Besides math,...

Recent Yale graduate with a simultaneous B.S./M.S. in Mathematics. I have been coaching and tutoring students for years. Throughout high school I volunteered as a Mathcounts coach at my local middle school. I also worked as a counselor at the Ross Mathematics Program. I love math and science and hope to inspire the same in my students regardless of their level.

...studying toward a double major in mathematics and Italian Studies, as well as a minor in physics. I peer tutored in all four years of high school in various levels of mathematics, biology, and Latin. Now, at my college I am a Learning Assistant for undergraduate multivariable calculus students and elementary Italian students. I have the most fun leading small group study sessions before exams, where we fine-tune the skills and study habits necessary to...

...it means I'm not doing my job, so I try to foster a conversational teaching style. My background - undergrad: applied physics at Cornell University, PhD: theoretical physics at MIT, postdoc: research scientist at University of Colorado Boulder - has given me insight into tricks and shortcuts to double check for common mistakes or help students solve problems even if they get stuck. When I'm not teaching or working on research I learn new languages,...

...Bachelor's of Science in Chemical Engineering. I am driven by an implacable urge to learn, explore, communicate and share knowledge with others. I now work as a high school biology and chemistry teacher at different levels with several years of experience : College Preparatory, Honors, and AP. I (primarily) tutor quantitative subjects : especially math, biology, and chemistry. I am also available to tutor SAT, ACT, and AP standardized testing material. Recreationally, I enjoy figure...

...have the opportunity to study them in detail, until college. I graduated with a bachelor of science in physics degree from Northeastern University. I am currently a researcher and hope to get my PhD in physics. I tutor math and physics; my favorite subject to teach is physics as I have neat and intuitive tricks that has proved valuable! My philosophy for teaching and learning is, developing a foundational intuition; understanding why and how things...

I enjoy teaching many subjects at all different ability and skill levels. Professionally I am currently developing my skills related to Virtual Web Servers and Hosting Interactive Websites. I pride myself in being able to discover each individual student's strengths and weaknesses, in order to better teach each specific subject.

...I made it a policy to find at least three different ways of explaining a new concept to my classes, and I kept long office hours and provided my email in order to enable my students to approach me with questions whenever they had time. I often met with students one-on-one, and I brought textbooks from my home and researched online resources so that they could supplement my teaching with other materials. While working as...

My name is Neil, but my friends call me Nemo. I am passionate about learning and exploring mathematics, and helping others learn all of the things that I have come to know and understand about the field.

...advanced level for a few years now, I have a privileged insight into the rich structure of mathematics. I have worked in fields that are as difficult compared to calculus as calculus is compared to basic multiplication tables. As a result, I have developed a mastery of material from high school and early college level math, and I have spent the last three years practicing the way I communicate math so that assignments stop seeming...

...recently graduated from Tufts University, where I majored in Geology, and minored in Computer Science and Philosophy. I was a volunteer tutor with the Leonard Carmichael Society, a teaching assistant for Intro to Computer Science, and a tour guide at the American Museum of Natural History in NY. I believe that learning math and science can be fun and engaging for anyone, and my goal in every session is to try and make it so.

...after college. I have previous experience tutoring middle and high school students. The subjects I'm best equipped to tutor are: math, at any level up to college-level differential equations, and physics, whether at the high school level or a calculus-based college course. My favorite subject to tutor would probably be calculus. When I took calculus in high school, it was pretty life-changing for me, and so I like to help other students see how amazing...

...school years (which there were seven of!), also taking on a number of private tutoring students during that time. My teaching experience has been in physics and in several areas of mathematics, from algebra through calculus. I've also tutored my own children successfully through math and physics over the years. I enjoy teaching these subjects because students can be helped to excel in them by learning to think in a quantitative way. This skill is...

...my peers learn and understand material that I understand. I participated in the campus-sponsored program tutoring my peers in classes that I excelled at and opted to help my friends with material whenever I could. Even after leaving school and entering industry, I have been available to talk about technical subjects from my friends still in academia, as well as participate in interviewing prospective applicants to Dartmouth College. My goal is not just to make...

...strategies and disciplined study habits to every session. I tutor a range of subjects (math through calculus, physics, and test prep for the PSAT/SAT), but I'm especially fond of algebra and physics because they teach logical problem-solving and quantitative reasoning skills that students carry with them for life. My teaching philosophy centers on meeting each student where they are. I start by diagnosing gaps in understanding, then tailor explanations and practice problems to build deep...
