...in high school. Over the last year I have tutored international high school students online in test preparation, as well as various academic subjects.

Some of us think we are just not good test takers, but in reality there are tons of strategies and tricks that anyone can employ to make the standardized test taking experience easier and less stressful.

...my past tutees I have worked to not only enhance their understanding of the curriculum, but also to help them find the motivation, study skills, discipline and joy that are necessary to truly excel in the classroom. I would be thrilled to bring that attitude to work with your student; I believe that good teaching means "working with" rather than "talking at," and that students thrive when they get a personal touch from a devoted...

...from Yale last year with a B.S. in psychology. As a student I worked as an undergraduate research assistant in a cognitive neuroscience lab, studied in Paris, debated with the Yale Political Union, and took part in numerous off-campus mentoring and counseling activities. In many ways I am still a student, always trying to grow as a person and in my profession. My favorite subject to teach is math, because there are often many different...

...the language. My bilingual background has also given me the opportunity to work with native Spanish speakers in other academic subjects. I bring a compassionate and collaborative approach to teaching. I strongly believe that a tutor must treat his or her student as a teammate and not as someone who merely needs instruction. The goal of any tutoring session should be to bring out and foster a student's own capacity to understand and excel in...

...support from the university and community. These advantages helped improve my fluency rapidly and fostered an interest in linguistics and language, enriching my stay with cultural experiences I would not have otherwise had. I moved on from undergraduate study to a Master of Arts in Publishing and Writing at Emerson College, shifting my focus to design and visual interpretation. As I progressed along my professional track in educational publishing, my mind often returned to my...

...and experience combined, I make a great tutor! By getting to know my clients' educational goals and interests, I provide instruction that is both comprehensive and engaging. The more a student interacts with content in ways that suit their personal learning style, the better they will recall the information in the future - especially come test time! This belief is a major component of my teaching philosophy, especially as it pertains to tutoring. The other...

...over three years. I have worked with young kids taking elementary-level math, middle school students taking Pre-Algebra and Algebra, high school students taking Pre-Calculus and Calculus, college students taking Calculus I/II and Linear Algebra -- and any level in between! Tutoring is one of my favorite activities, because every student I work with teaches me something new about my field. In addition to doing math and writing French poetry, I play the piano, contract bridge,...

...develop and create. As an English tutor, I believe it is my role to support the academic development of students and help them become effective communicators. I will contribute to these aims by improving students' writing skills; enhancing their understanding of literature and knowledge of literary history; and guiding them into understanding how literature can reflect social values, thereby contributing to a greater consciousness of how they themselves fit in their cultural contexts.

...degree in chemical engineering, mathematics, and French language. Throughout my undergraduate, I worked both at the college of engineering and department of mathematics as a chemistry and mathematics tutor, respectively. I thoroughly enjoyed my four years of teaching and primarily helped students from underrepresented backgrounds. Currently, I am a graduate student at Brown University, pursuing a PhD in Chemical, Environmental, and Biochemical Engineering. My research interests include synthetic biology, nanotechnology, and mathematical modeling. I hope...

...degree at Boston University, with a focus on Renaissance art. Primarily I tutor subjects in the humanities, particularly history, English and, naturally, art history, but I also enjoy working with elementary and middle school students in all subjects. I love tutoring art history and introducing students to a discipline that they may not be as familiar with, and also have a passion for American and European history. For me, making a real connection with a...

...at Northeastern University. Per this, I prefer to work in Math subjects, though I am not against Physics, Programming, or other related topics. My philosophy of teaching is that a student should never be punished or shamed for asking a question, and moreover that my time is best spent on students who are struggling with the topic at hand - students who already "get it" don't really need my help, after all. In my spare...

...meant to stump them, and maybe even put their knowledge to real world use. As a tutor, I like to give a strong foundation to orient my student, and then gradually grant them more freedom and independence until they can feel themselves grasp the concept, pointing out pitfalls or common errors along the way; teachers who used these methods on me always left the most lasting impressions. Outside of my studies, I really enjoy listening...

...a methodology that no student, no matter how much they may be struggling, is unteachable. I had three peers fail calculus their first semester, own that fact and come to the tutoring center for help the following semester. After working with them, all passed calculus this past spring term with no lower than a B+. Teaching is a passion for me and I look forward to sharing that passion with you in the pursuit of...

...tutor are Trigonometry and Geometry because I think there are many different ways to visualize these types of problems. Often times all it takes to understand a concept is an alternate way of thinking about it and I have found this eventual comprehension to be extremely rewarding for both me and the student. I spend most of my free time with friends eating delicious meals, watching movies and going to country music concerts.

...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...
