...through enrichment programs, as well as a breadth of one on one tutoring experience both in SAT prep and in my topics of expertise (High School Math and Physics up to Multi-Variable Calculus and Physics C). My favorite subject to tutor is AP Physics I, as it is incredibly exciting to be a part of a students deeper realizations about the physical world around them. I am a current sophomore at Tufts pursuing a double...

...as a thorough, dedicated, and empathetic mentor. During my college years at Yale University, I tutored more than a dozen high school students in subjects that included high-school chemistry, AP Biology, SAT prep, and AP US History. I have also taught over 500 students over the course of 3 years through Yale's SPLASH program, which allows college students to teach middle and high school students in both lecture-style and seminar-style environments. In that program, I...

...the most important skill for a tutor is to adapt teaching style to the specific strengths and weaknesses of the student. My in-depth knowledge and experience with improvisation allow me to flexibly change problem solving approaches based on what the student needs. I am focused on engaging everyone I work with and am keenly attuned to whether people are truly following along. As an actor and director with a degree in science, I am equally...

...been playing since I was 8. I also am very interested in music and currently learning how to play the piano and guitar. Throughout the last two years of my high school career, I spent upwards of 20 hours a week tutoring 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...

At the core, I love learning and find it fun. In teaching, I try to convey that sense of fun to my students. I use a variety of techniques depending on my student's learning style, but I always focus on the fun of learning new things.... In a first session with a student, I would introduce the basic concepts and core questions of the subject, and determine my student's learning style in order to plan future lessons better.

...money and because I just really like doing it. After graduating, I was offered a position as a Chemistry Teaching Assistant at the Harvard Extension School. Through all of this, I've learned to teach to each student's strength. I've learned that some students learn by practicing problem solving, others by understanding the theory more thoroughly, and others by thinking and processing things out-loud. My job as a teacher or a tutor is to identifying how...

...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 to use a combination of relatable metaphors and real life examples to help my students genuinely understand whatever material we are covering. I scored in the 98th percentile on the SAT and the MCAT2015, so I feel confident with a variety of test preparation. I am...

...with a double major in Mechanical and Biomedical Engineering. I am currently working at a start up company in Pittsburgh. I am passionate about learning, regardless of the field, and I strive to do my very best at everything I do. I enjoy helping people learn; I don't want people to feel afraid of the sciences and will work hard to find a method of teaching that makes the subject seem more interesting.... In my experience, students learn best when the tutor is really excited about the material and encourages students by praising them when they do well. It eventually makes the subject less tedious and the student more willing to do the work.

...Physics, and Chemistry classes and found that I really enjoyed tutoring. I enjoyed the challenge of connecting with students, and working with them and alongside them, and found it to be a very rewarding job. I realized everybody comes to tutoring with different objectives, skill sets, backgrounds, and personalities and that every session required me to connect with the student on an even playing field and explore their knowledge and capabilities so that together we...

...and a Course Assistant (TA) in the Harvard Math Department. I am also a 2016 US Presidential Scholar, 2016 Intel STS semifinalist, and a cum laude graduate of Phillips Academy Andover. Happy to tutor most subjects, for I have perfect scores on the SAT, PSAT, and many subject tests/AP exams. I will be relatively free for the next month, and I find tutoring to be a great way for me to review these important concepts,...
