Tony

Calculus Tutor • +28 Subjects

I am a recent graduate of Yale University and incoming first year medical student at Columbia University. Originally from the DC area, I have always had a passion for science and medicine and pursued a degree in Biology while at Yale. During the 2008-2009 academic year, I tutored science, math, English, history, and Mandarin Chinese part-time with a DC-based tutoring company. At Yale, I worked as a freshman counselor to provide academic and career advice to incoming freshmen. I have taken both SAT and MCAT test prep classes and am familiar with both tests as well as the preparation necessary to score well. My personal career goals include attending medical school to pursue either immunology/infectious diseases or psych/neurology, teaching biology at the university level, and working in public/global health with either the CDC or the WHO.

Samuel

AP Calculus AB Tutor • +29 Subjects

I am a freshman at Caltech majoring in Applied and Computational Mathematics. My favorite subject to tutor is math because I find it very rewarding to simplify complex topics to aid in understanding. I have lots of tutoring experience. In high school, I ran and taught an SAT prep class and was vice president of my school's NHS chapter where I ran our tutoring program, and I, myself, tutored. I also was a teaching assistant in the summer of 2020 for a class in discrete mathematics through a program called PACT (Program in Algorithmic and Combinatorial Thinking). I love learning and hope to make the process enjoyable for you!

Frequently Asked Questions

Fourth graders typically find preterite vs. imperfect tense distinction challenging, since both describe past actions but with different nuances. Verb conjugation across regular and irregular verbs (ser, estar, ir, hacer) also trips up many students at this level. Beyond grammar, vocabulary retention—especially thematic sets like food, family, and daily routines—requires consistent reinforcement. Speaking fluency is another common pain point; students may know grammar rules but freeze when asked to form sentences spontaneously in conversation.

Classroom settings rarely offer sustained one-on-one conversation practice, which is essential for building confidence and fluency. A tutor can engage students in real dialogue—asking open-ended questions, correcting pronunciation gently in the moment, and adjusting pace based on comprehension. This personalized speaking practice helps students internalize natural speech patterns and develop the listening comprehension needed to understand native speakers, rather than just textbook Spanish.

Rather than drilling conjugation tables in isolation, effective tutors use verbs in meaningful contexts—through storytelling, role-play, or describing real activities. Breaking conjugation into manageable patterns (regular -ar, -er, -ir verbs first, then common irregulars) helps students see the logic. Spaced repetition of high-frequency verbs across multiple sessions, combined with immediate application in sentences, builds automaticity without the frustration of rote memorization.

Tutors model correct pronunciation repeatedly and have students echo back, focusing on sounds that don't exist in English (like the rolled 'r' or the Spanish 'j'). Rather than stopping to correct every mistake, experienced tutors let students finish thoughts, then gently repeat the correct version so they absorb it naturally. This builds confidence while ensuring students internalize proper pronunciation patterns without feeling self-conscious about errors.

Vocabulary sticks when it's learned in thematic clusters (e.g., all food words together, then using them in a shopping dialogue) rather than random lists. Tutors can use retrieval practice—asking students to recall and use words from previous lessons—which strengthens memory far more than initial exposure. Connecting new vocabulary to students' real lives (their favorite foods, family members, hobbies) also makes words personally meaningful and memorable.

Learning Spanish isn't just about grammar and vocabulary—it's about understanding the cultures where Spanish is spoken. Tutors can weave in age-appropriate cultural elements like holidays (Día de Muertos, Las Posadas), famous stories, or customs that make the language feel alive and relevant. This context deepens engagement and helps students appreciate why they're learning Spanish beyond the classroom requirement.

All four skills reinforce each other. A tutor might have a student read a short story aloud (combining reading and speaking), then write sentences about it (writing), and discuss it conversationally (listening and speaking). This integrated approach prevents students from becoming strong in one skill while weak in others, and keeps lessons engaging by varying activities. Writing also helps solidify grammar patterns that students practice verbally.

Tutors assess where each student actually is—not just grade level—and customize lessons accordingly. Some 4th graders may be beginner learners just starting Spanish, while others have heritage background or prior exposure. A tutor adjusts complexity, pacing, and focus areas to match individual readiness, ensuring students are challenged but not frustrated, whether they're building foundational vocabulary or refining conversational nuance.
