I enjoy learning as much as I enjoy teaching! As a youngster I loved asking questions and spending time with books. I graduated from Davidson College in 2009 with a degree in English and Spanish Literature. After college I spend five years teaching in Oakland, California where I also earned my Masters in Teaching and Education.I enjoy teaching K-12 reading and writing skills as well as elementary through middle school mathematics. I am a Spanish speaker and enjoy helping others practice their skills. If you are interested in talking sports, The Pittsburgh Pirates and Steelers are my teams!As a tutor, I will work with students to identify their strengths areas of growth. We will work together to master mathematics and language arts skills in a relevant and enjoyable context. I look forward to working with families in helping young learners realize their potential.

As a recent graduate from Columbia University, I am pursuing a career in theatre and education. I have helped teach a variety of subjects for many years now and I am excited to continue tutoring. I am a native Spanish speaker. I love learning and understand both traditional and creative learning techniques. I have worked with students of all ages. I understand the frustration of confusion along or not being challenged. This allows me to empathize and find different ways to help. There is so much to learn and seeing students progress is a gift and honor. I am incredibly hard working, passionate, and dedicated.

I graduated from Harvard College in May 2015 with a Bachelor's Degree in American History and Literature. Though my main academic passions lie in the humanities, throughout my education I have retained a deep interest in a variety of subjects, and have especially enjoyed helping students to master those subjects. In high school I tutored extensively in Math and English, and in high school and college I honed my teaching abilities further by serving as a musical director for various musical theater productions and singing ensembles. Additionally, I invested substantial amounts of time preparing for the SAT and many AP exams: I know the tests well and am excited to explore the varieties of questions with students as they prepare for the exams.Besides nurturing interests in many academic areas over the years, I have also sharpened strong communication skills by frequently discussing materials with my instructors and fellow students. To check if I've mastered a particular concept, I often try to imagine how I would explain it to others. I believe strong oral communication, along with an enthusiasm for the material, is crucial to a satisfying learning experience, and I look forward to providing this for my students.

As a teacher, I see how students can struggle in reading and writing on a daily basis. My experience is working with elementary school students as well as high school, in reading and writing. I have worked with English Language Learners, special education students, as well as general education. My experience has taught me that there are always solutions to every problem.

I am a graduate of Northwestern Law, where I served on the board of the Journal of International Human Rights. Prior to law school, I taught courses and provided one-on-one tutoring on the SAT, ACT and GRE. More recently, I have focused on helping students master the LSAT. I particularly enjoy providing individualized instruction. We each have strengths and weaknesses when it comes to learning and test-taking, and I've found that remarkable advancements happen when an approach is tailored to the student's unique attributes.I recently moved to the New York area after working in litigation in Chicago. Outside of work, I spend a lot of time exploring the area and reading.

I can help you or your child with writing skills, critical reading, and test-taking abilities. I have taught at the middle school, high school, and college levels, and I have a proven record of success in helping students on a one-to-one basis achieve their goals. My teaching approach is very much tailored to each student's individual needs. I'll take the time to know you and what you want to learn before the tutoring begins, so as not to waste your time going over things you already know.I firmly believe that writing, reading, and test-taking are skills that can be learned by anyone and that personal, one-to-one instruction is the best way for students to go beyond what they are able to learn in school. My tutoring is worth the investment!

I earned my BA in English with honors from Rutgers University. Exploring the interrelatedness of literature, history, medicine, and psychology (my senior thesis examined the role of seasonal affective disorder in the works and lives of Emily Dickinson and Percy Shelley) engendered in me an understanding that no area of academic study exists in a vacuum and that an important aspect of teaching (and learning) is to find the places where academic areas intersect and inform one another.I studied mathematics after college, and before my recent move to Washington, I served as an adjunct math tutor for five years at Indian River State College in Vero Beach, Florida. I love helping people dispel the belief that they "can't do math." One of my favorite compliments given to me by a college algebra student was that I explain concepts "like a person, not a mathematician," and that I "can break down ugly problems and make them easy to solve."While in Florida, I also taught middle grades language arts, algebra, and geometry for nine years at a small alternative school. My pupils learned the most from lessons and projects that related life experiences to math and English. A favorite was our restaurant business plan which incorporated math through recipes and blueprints and English through restaurant reviews and resumes. I really enjoyed creating and teaching our ballroom dance club in which members learned history, culture, teamwork, and the power of music and movement. The end of each semester culminated in exuberant performances of rhumba, swing or merengue. I laughed with and learned from my students every day.As a private tutor, I have helped dozens of students improve standardized test scores, fine-tune college entrance essays, and succeed in tough classes. Perhaps more importantly, I have helped them eliminate some of the anxiety that has become prevalent in traditional education. I hope I have given them a desire to learn and a belief in their abilities. My students know that we have a partnership; we are in it together, and I will do all I can to help them reach their goals.My other interests include wildlife rehabilitation, ballroom dancing, surfing, running, and reading.

I have recently graduated from the Burnett Honors College at the University of Central Florida with a Bachelors degree in Biomedical Sciences. This upcoming year I am going to the Institute of Human Nutrition at Columbia University to get an MS in Nutrition and Metabolism.I have been a tutor for college students for 2 years at my university, teaching Organic Chemistry 1 and General Chemistry. I've also helped high school students with college admission essays, and with kindergartners in the Junior Achievement program.I enjoy working with children and finding creative ways for them to learn the material and to try to inspire a desire to learn by making learning fun for them. I also really enjoy teaching general chemistry, because I find the material fascinating. When I tutor a student, I don't just give them the answers, but rather I guide them to the answers. It is important that a student learns how to find the answers themselves so they do not become dependent on outside sources.

I'm a recent college graduate in the Boston area focusing on English/writing tutoring as well as LSAT test prep. Throughout college I worked with students of all backgrounds to hone their writing abilities, and developed methods to help demystify the writing process and dramatically improve the quality of their writing. As a tutor, I strive to make writing understandable and enjoyable for my students and to help them connect with the writing process in their own way. The LSAT is a highly learnable test that requires no prior knowledge; with the right techniques for each section and good test-taking strategies, one can see huge gains in their score. I can help you develop an LSAT strategy that works for you.

I received my Bachelor of Arts in English Literature with a minor in Art History from the University of MinnesotaTwin Cities. I am currently pursuing my PhD in English at Washington University in Saint Louis. I have taught an array of subjects at Wash U for the past 4 years, including introductory writing, literature, and film. I love the subjects I study and teach, and I try to impart that enthusiasm to my students. Whether they're struggling with memorizing facts for a test, writing a term paper, improving reading comprehension, or something else, I help students learn how to both overcome and have fun with those challenges. I can tutor a broad range of subjects, but I am most passionate about writing and reading. When I don't have my nose in a book, I enjoy an active outdoor lifestyle (running, dog-walking, basketball and softball) and engaging in various arts and crafts, like woodworking and sewing.
