...Blair High School. I recently graduated from the University of Cambridge (England), where I earned a masters degree in engineering. While I tutor a number of subjects, math and physics are my favorites. I was a teaching assistant at Duke University for several semesters, and helped my peers with learning physics, material science, and engineering - so algebra now seems like a breeze! I'm a naturally good test-taker who’s developed several of my own test-taking...

Charles: Washington DC SAT Reading tutor
Certified SAT Reading Tutor in Washington, DC
A battle-tested veteran of the New York private school circuit, I graduated college in 2013 and now teach German in DC. I lived in German-speaking Europe for many years, and I majored its language, culture and history. I fully understand the many competing demands on a modern student's schedule. My tutees and I therefore tailor-make lesson plans based on their personal strengths and areas for improvement in order to fully capitalize on our time together.

...think about the concepts. Even if Trigonometry sounds dry, for example, I have seen how explaining it in terms of "pretend you want to hit the baseball farther than anyone else and you need to figure out what angle will get you there" can make a light bulb go on. All of my previous students have had different learning styles, personalities, and interests; one of my favorite things about tutoring is figuring out what makes...

I also assisted them in Spanish (all levels), AP classes, PSAT skills, and SAT skills. My greatest strength is assisting students get more organized and take better notes when they are...

Typically you follow rules and the answer just happens, this is awesome! I also love tutoring/ guiding students through the college selection experience. As one of the first members of my family to earn a college degree, I had very few mentors and went about the process blindly. I...
