Hi, my name is Andrew and I am currently a sophomore at Boston College. I am a double major in Biology and Philosophy.

Therefore, my goal is to help students understand any material that they struggle with and help them feel more confident in their own abilities.

...through which I, along with a group of tutors, taught small groups of elementary and middle school students about various famous artists and art techniques, and lead them in art projects. I have also taught swimming lessons as a Water Safety Instructor for several years; I taught children from age 4 to age 15 at Brookhaven Country Day Camp and at the Fresh Air Fund. These lessons taught me how to break down complex concepts...

While most of my work has been with elementary through high school aged students, I have also worked with ESL students at the college level and above, and native English speakers who want to learn Spanish. I have a diverse cultural background (American, Panamanian, Italian) and it helps me to connect to students who are trying to learn a new language as...

...studying subjects like literature, which offer an infinite amount of ways to think about the world. That's what I find so fascinating about the subject that each piece of fiction, nonfiction, or poetry, is a different lens in which to see what's around you. And this idea is what keeps me hooked on good books, compelling writing, and words that truly move me. I only hope the people I tutor will get hooked, too!... I believe...

A student's interests and hobbies as well as the world around us are used with the content to help increase...

I understand the stress and frustration that can come with academics, and I would love to...

English is a difficult, confusing language to master. Between hard-to-look-at spelling rules and nonsensical grammar rules, mastering the language can be a real pain. As an aspiring English teacher currently studying at Wheaton College in Massachusetts, helping you through that pain is what I like to do, and something I'm excited to lend a hand for.

...to become confident, independent readers, opening the door to a lifetime of learning and curiosity. My teaching philosophy is student-centered and supportive. I focus on building confidence as much as competence. I believe that a safe, positive learning environment where questions are always welcome is essential for real understanding to happen.

...at quickly discovering and implementing the strategies that worked best for a particular student (e.g., visual/tactile examples, analogies, and breaking down complex problems into smaller parts).

Each of these experiences has been incredibly rewarding, and has...

When information learned in the classroom can be applied to "real life", the information seems much more approachable and meaningful.... I like to use checkpoints to help...

...decisions in daily life easier. Informally, I think of this as "learning how to learn": being invested in the stories we read is important, though communicating to students why those stories are important is even more critical. I co-host a monthly bilingual book club with a friend from university. Together, we pick a selection of readings for which we then provide a background presentation. Following that, we lead discussions on the author, text, and literature...
