Award-Winning Summer Tutors serving Somerville, MA

...be confident in his/her work. I want every student to firmly believe that he/she can do anything, simply because it's true. Through their education they may do anything in the world, they need only to try hard enough. I don't want students to give up on their education or even themselves because "it's too hard" or they "hate it." I want students to love learning, to realize its power and their own potential, to learn...

I can tutor Math, Science and English, and I would love to help you anyway that I can!

...City. My interaction with these students has taught me that each and everyone one of us is capable of learning even the most difficult of topics. The most important factor that determines mastery over a topic is how well the subject matter is presented. Also, not all students learn in the same style. Hence, I am always conscious of the manner in which I present topics to students. Most importantly, learning should be fun. There...

...about languages and most enjoy tutoring Spanish and English as a Second Language (ESL). At Oberlin, I received training in the Organic World Languages method of teaching languages, which focuses on student production, and making meaningful language in context instead of memorizing. I find applying this framework is useful for teaching and tutoring both Spanish and English. I gained fluency in Spanish during my semester studying at a university in Chile, and have taught Spanish...

...understand how and why the natural world works. The sciences are what propel our civilization forward and hold the keys to our future. It is a genuine pleasure to be able to share my enthusiasm on these subjects with new students and hopefully make the daunting world of natural sciences more approachable.
