Samuel

ACT English Tutor • +27 Subjects

I believe that to be a student not only means to succeed in school but to become a lover of knowledge. This philosophy has guided me since I started tutoring freshman year in college. My strengths lie in reading, writing, and all things humanities. I have a genuine love for tutoring and the subjects I teach, and I aim to create an open, informative, and effective atmosphere with my students, one that can shape them into philosophers or true lovers of knowledge.

Ashley

ACT Prep Tutor • +21 Subjects

I am a graduate of Washington University in St. Louis. With psychology and neuroscience in my background, I realize how important it is that a student is able to connect with the information in a way that makes sense to him or her, creating a memory or system that will actually stick. As such, I find that, as I work with a student, I try to see how the student sees the problem and find a way that will work for not just today, but for the future. No matter the subject, I work with students on strategies to understand and to execute problems quickly and efficiently, and I love the moment when something clicks.I've been tutoring for over a decade from helping Physics peers with homework and general topics, Spanish and psychology students with tackling difficult topics that I had covered in the past, third and fourth graders and help them with their homework, or literacy with a variety of ages. As a learner, who also teaches, it is very important to me to try to see from the viewpoint of the student.

Kayla

Biology Tutor • +24 Subjects

I am a current student at Baylor University. I am currently working towards receiving my Bachelors of Science in Public Health with a focus on the biological aspects. I have intentions of attending medical school after my undergraduate program. Throughout high school, I tutored children in all grades (K-12) and fell in love with helping others learn. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about English, Literature, and Science. Iundertsna the importance of education and I know that sometimes learning is not easy. My motto with tutoring has always been "By a student, For a student". I want to relate to my students on a personal level and build connections while advancing their knowledge. Outside of academics, I am a current student-athlete at my university running on the Track and Field team.

Mary

College English Tutor • +25 Subjects

I graduated with honors from the University of Massachusetts Amherst, where I earned a dual degree in Communications and French and Francophone Studies. I am keenly passionate about education, and especially about language studies which I believe are essential to the advancement of a global society. My travels throughout Europe and Asia have inspired me as a language learner and teacher. In the course of my academic and professional career I have taught students around the world in a variety of subjects related to English and French learning. As a university student I tutored adults and children in English and French, and I have also worked as a full time ESL teacher in Korea for several years. My teaching style is very interactive; I’ve found that students learn best when they can engage with the material through active dialogue, and when they feel that what they’re learning has real world relevance. My interests include reading and outdoor sports, especially skiing and hiking which help me to enjoy the beauty of nature and give me some peaceful time for reflection.

Jeffrey

ACT English Tutor • +23 Subjects

I love problem solving. I did a lot of it as an undergraduate at the University of Washington. As a tutor, I believe that test preparation is a solvable problem, and I am excited about using my solutions to help students achieve their goals.Preparing for a standardized test can feel overwhelming. But you really can be prepared. Careful, concept-oriented preparation can help ensure that students don't run into anything radically new on exam day. My preparation strategy aims to give students the instruction they need to recognize as many problem types as possible.Sitting for a standardized test can be a stressful experience for many people. I try to give students a firm toolkit of techniques and tactics so that they do not have to improvise in that kind of situation, and can instead focus on showing what they know.

Susan

10th Grade Reading Tutor • +61 Subjects

My continuous evolvement as an educator and the understanding that students learn in different ways, has led me towardsmulti-sensory learning that is active rather than passive. When I work with students, their learning styles and needs for engagement are at the forefront.Daily, I educate students who learn differently, and success has come to my students when I scaffold to make the abstract more concrete. I have incorporated tactile boards, sky writing, active movement, as well as many anchoring visuals.Such student success has also come through a gradual release method that I use as a framework for my lessons. This includes modeling, guided practice, independent practice and a wrap-up closure.Working 1:1 gives me the opportunity to deeply differentiate to my students' specific needs. I have experience teaching students with dyslexia and dysgraphia.As I create lessons, the focal point that drives such planning revolves around the needs of my students.If you are interested in working with me, I'll make sure to fully hear your students needs to make sure that we are working towards a common goal. I've had experience collaborating with classroom teachers as well.Please also check out my resume so you can see my credentials and teaching experiences. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you and your child towards academic growth.

Madeleine

College English Tutor • +14 Subjects

I am currently a senior attending the University of Notre Dame, and I am pursuing a degree in the Program of Liberal Studies (PLS). PLS is a renowned Great Books program that aims to perfect the student's ability to think critically in a variety of disciplines, such as literature, philosophy, and history. In PLS, great emphasis is placed on formulating deep and effective arguments and presenting them clearly in a technically correct manner, both in class and through my written work. Consequently, I have had much practice writing and editing my own work as well as editing that of my classmates. I am also pursuing a minor in education and am seriously considering pursuing a career in the educational field after graduating. I am passionate about helping others learn to the fullest extent of their abilities while enjoying the subject at the same time!

Courtney

1st Grade Math Tutor • +52 Subjects

My philosophy as an educator is that every child can learn. I believe that often in education children are given up on if they cannot grasp a concept when in fact it is the education system that is failing the child. Every child has their own way of learning, and as an educator, it is my mission to make sure that every child achieves his/her goals.I am originally from Orlando, FL but relocated to Massachusetts a little over a year ago. I went to the University of Central Florida where I obtained my Bachelors in Elementary Education. I have six years experience in education and five years experience as a tutor. I love spending time outdoors with my family and watching sporting events.
