Now I am slowing down my full time career and looking for flexibility, I have more time and...

As a tutor, I am calm, patient, and understanding, but...

...of time huddled around math and science textbooks, explaining concepts and helping my brother and sister see problems the way I do. I believe strongly that the student gains nothing from the tutor who does their work for them, so I go out of my way to make sure each student understands that grasping the concepts is much more important than solving the individual problems. Besides working with my siblings, I also have experience teaching...

...Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering. Prior to that, I attended Tufts University where I earned my B.S., also in Biomedical Engineering.

As a graduate student at Boston College, I believe that education can open new opportunities throughout life. With two years of volunteer tutoring experience, with both 4th and 8th graders, I believe in making learning fun, relevant and interactive.

...students for almost 15 years. I really enjoy being part of the learning process and helping students succeed. My professional life began as a biochemist and intellectual property attorney.

...science tutoring experience includes computer programming (C++/C/Java/Python) as well as data structures, algorithms, operating systems, and theory of computation. My tutoring approach is that I look for gaps in a student's understanding. Then we focus on plugging those gaps. I believe that even the most complex topics can be broken down into key concepts which can then be mastered. Mastering key concepts leads to student confidence and the ability to do well in a subject.

...I spend an average of at least 2-3 hours per week in Boston Public School classrooms, where I assist teachers and work with students one-on-one who would benefit from extra help.

As a professional tutor, I really enjoy the work I do. To me, a crucial part of life success is helping others, so I am dedicated to my work. Sometimes, when somebody shows us something we can't see for ourselves, we become capable of things we never thought we could do. ... Once you've learned something, it is never forgotten.
