Award-Winning SAT Tutors in Brockton, MA

...a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering with a concentration in Biomedical Devices and a Bachelor of Science in Music. I have tutored students from the elementary school level to my current peer group. I have experience tutoring through MIT's Seminar XL and Tutorial Services Room programs in core subjects required for graduation (general chemistry, physics, calculus, multivariable calculus, and biology). I have also tutored students in SAT exam preparation for the past three years....

...Boston College. I hope to concentrate on creative writing, so naturally it is my favorite subject to tutor. In assisting students with writing at Boston Latin, I have found that some students have a natural turn for writing essays and need little more than encouragement and editing. With most students, however, writing is not a skill they can effortlessly pick up, and creativity is not instantly fluid. Bearing that in mind, I use a Socratic...

...and writing as well. My tutoring philosophy is to simplify information into a form that almost anyone can understand. I usually do this by gauging a student's background information on a subject, starting with the basics and working up in complexity, until I can determine and focus on what a student is specifically struggling with the most. In my free time, I love to stay physically and mentally active. I enjoy playing sports like basketball,...

...middle school level. My favorite subjects have always been Math and Science, especially Biology and Chemistry. I enjoy finding different approaches to math problems and have found ways to make all my students over the years understand the best way for them to solve different types of questions. This ability meant that I was often given students with various learning disabilities, since they knew I could make it work for those students. I believe that...

...by creating an engaging and gratifying environment conducive to the learning style of the individual with whom I am working. I am driven by my passion for science, English, writing, literature and Spanish. I am excited to revisit these academic interests as a tutor during my "gap year" before I attend medical school next year. Although I spend a lot of time with "my nose in the books," I pounce on any excuse to go...

...meet their needs. There is nothing more gratifying than seeing the "lightbulb" moment happen for a student. I am interested in tutoring all levels of math and science. My top priority is tutoring the science sections of the MCAT and the quantitative section of the GRE, but I am happy to tutor high school courses as well. If you are interested, please let me know and we'll talk to see if working together would be...

...well versed in all grade school and college-level mathematics. The teaching style I have developed through my own experience, as well as keeping up with the results of physics education research, follows a Socratic principle. Students should be carefully guided as they pursue their own understanding, and should be able to experience for themselves the fun of figuring out the natural world. I also believe that physics and mathematics are languages, and that explicit recognition...

...my patience and motivating nature, I help students build confidence in their inherent abilities. In the last seven years, I have had a range of tutoring experience from being a Biochemistry Teacher's Assistant to teaching ESL classes online. I am a graduate of Cornell University with a Bachelor of Science in Biological Engineering. Since graduation, I worked as an engineer for more than two years. I am now preparing to go to medical school. In...

...Boston for college. I studied Biomedical Engineering at both Boston University during undergrad and Tufts University for my masters. After much thought, I deviated from a medical school track to pursue a career in the medical device industry. My love for math and science started around middle school, and I was strongly influenced by my teachers. Through tutoring, I hope to be a similar influence. I really enjoy working with students of all ages (elementary...

...believe in the importance of a diverse, liberal arts education, which I received at my undergrad institution, Skidmore College. At Skidmore I earned my bachelor’s degree in art history, where I also studied Classics, anthropology, psychology, history, English, and government, and spent one glorious semester studying abroad in Paris. At Skidmore I gained tutoring experience working as a peer-mentor, art history tutor, note-taker, and providing SAT prep and general homework help, as well as teaching...
