Award-Winning Science Tutors serving Providence, RI

I believe that people can learn anything if they work hard enough and have a good teacher. Relating subjects to a student's interests allows the student to be fully engaged and want to learn the material. From there, you can teach the student how to critically think through a problem so they can solve any problem or learn any material that comes their way.

...cat, watching and talking about TV or movies, Boston sports, science-fiction, anime, running, cooking and eating food, and, of course, long walks on the beach. I am training to be a professional actor, and my goal is to one day be conversational in French, Russian, and Japanese which will either be very useful or no help at all when I set off to help colonize Mars. All jokes aside, I am very excited to begin...

As a tutor, I try to tie in as many real-world examples to make confusing topics more manageable and applicable to everyday life. I like teaching challenging topics in many different ways until the student can confidently grasp...

...and epidemiology to molecular biology and beyond. Each teaching experience reinforces the importance of being a perpetual learner, embracing new knowledge, and refining my skills to meet evolving educational and professional landscapes. Teaching has also taught me resilience, adaptability, and the importance of empathy. These qualities have driven me to pursue opportunities for personal and professional growth, as I believe that an educator's journey is incomplete without a commitment to self-improvement and a willingness to...

...a broad range of topics, I am most passionate about science and reading/writing. While these seem like two entirely different subjects, I like to think of it this way - science is about understanding the world around us, which we access and make beautiful through literature. I have always enjoyed making these subjects as fun for my students to learn as they are for me to teach. My goal in teaching is to foster in...

...courses in which I excel and have the most experience. I have always had a special interest in education and activism. Especially in my field, being so intertwined with political science and social justice, the ability to communicate and educate others is crucial.

I also spent two summers...

...doing so. This is also why I tutor children of all ages in standardized test preparation. I know tests are a formidable challenge to many people, but I believe that they can be fun if a student feels prepared and confident. In my mind, a test is an opportunity to display hard work and knowledge, not something to be feared. My tutoring style is very focused, fun, and relaxed. I believe students do best when...

In addition to math, I tutor all elementary school subjects. I strongly believe in the pertinence of early...

...multiple avenues to reach your student in the most effective way. I have loved working with kids since I was one myself--I've babysat since I was eleven, and I've been "tutoring" my younger brother and sister and my friends since I was in middle school. Working with students one-on-one is something I missed as a teacher last year, and the reason why I chose to take on tutoring in addition to my teaching responsibilities. There...

...a fun and unintimidating way. I want students to understand that just because a certain topic has the stigma of begin hard does not mean it cannot be fun or attainable. I am most passionate about teaching math, especially algebra. This is subject that can be confusing but once it is made fun and systemic we can make it a breeze for you. In the future I hope to become a physician for the pediatric...
