I am not as interested in whether students know these concepts; as I am in if they can put them to critical use. My teaching philosophy has both traditional and radical roots, and rests, not only on my being an expert in my field, but on my being a partner in learning with my students.

Calculus Tutor • +31 Subjects

I am a graduate of Cornell University, where I earned a Bachelor of Arts in English with a Minor in Music. I hold a Masters of Arts in English from the University of Connecticut, where I am currently working on my PhD in American Literature. I tutor a mix of test preparation, English, Literature, and Writing. In helping students with reading and writing skills, I enjoy using multiple different approaches to develop a well-rounded understanding of the techniques, while making the sessions fun. I'm a strong proponent of keeping studying dynamic. It is important to me that my students come away from our sessions with not only the scores or grades they desire, but a deeper understanding of the topics and skills that will continue to benefit them beyond test day. In my spare time I love long runs, singing, hiking, and reading.

I am a senior at MIT majoring in Writing with a specialization in Digital Media. I have also completed a minor in Business Management. As one of ten writing majors at a school full of people pursuing science and technology rather than humanities subjects, I have taken a default position as tutor for anyone struggling with any writing assignments. I have helped fellow college students on a wide variety assignments ranging from analytic papers on race in the media, to papers on scientific theories, to scholarship essays. In high school I was a Link Crew tutor for three years, making myself available for tutoring sessions after school for whatever subject students required help in. Hobbies: books, music, art, travel, reading, writing

Vanessa

Calculus Tutor • +20 Subjects

I am a graduate of Harvard University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Social Studies with a focus in food policy and law. During my undergraduate studies I spent my time in political organizations and in research, teaching fellowships on political philosophy at Harvard Effective Altruism and serving as a Visiting Researcher in food policy at the University of Cambridge. After graduating, I spent time as a researcher in political science and history and mentored students working towards attending top schools in the US and UK, providing one-on-one help with applications and developing seminars on topics like Sociology and English. Most recently, I have started a non-profit organization in Ecuador focused on educating families about healthy cooking and providing nutritional assistance. At the same time, I am excited to continue pursuing my passion for teaching and helping students navigate subjects like History, English Literature, ESL, Spanish, and Standardized Tests like the ACT, AP, and IB tests. I believe that the knowledge young people receive in primary and secondary education is the ultimate individual enrichment; an essential part of understanding who they are and a key to seeing who they may become. In my spare time, I walk, read history books like Doris Kearns Goodwin's Team of Rivals, and listen to music like Led Zeppelin and Lana del Rey.

Among other things, I have a strong background and experience in various types of academic and professional writing.

Pre-Algebra Tutor • +25 Subjects

I'm Scotty! I am currently a senior at Harvard College pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Sociology with a secondary (minor) in Theater, Dance, and Media. I know full well that struggling with course material is tricky to navigate; I have not always felt comfortable going straight to the professor or teacher to ask for help. That's why I love tutoring - I aim to be a helpful resource for students, blending the toughness of a coach with the warmth and comfort of a friend to provide the best atmosphere for those I tutor. Hobbies: art, books, dancing, reading, music, writing, singing

Rebecca

10th Grade Math Tutor • +54 Subjects

I am a graduate of the University of Notre Dame with a Bachelors of Arts in English and Philosophy. At Notre Dame, I worked as a tutor at the University Writing Center, helping both undergraduate and graduate students with their writing. I also tutored local middle school students in reading and writing to prepare them for standardized tests. I had the opportunity to live in Spain for 6 months, where I became fluent in Spanish and developed a love for tutoring English language learners. Since graduation, I have worked with students at Midtown Educational Foundation and other extracurricular programs, and am currently pursuing a Masters of Arts in Teaching English. I tutor a wide range of subjects, although I am most passionate about English, Spanish, and Writing. I am an advocate of student-centered tutoring, and my goal is to support and guide students so that they have the satisfaction and confidence of knowing how to think through a problem and reach the correct answer. In my free time, I love to bake, read, play soccer, and act in plays.

Emma

Calculus Tutor • +27 Subjects

I'm Emma. I'm a 2016 Northwestern University graduate currently working as an ESL classroom teacher. I'm a tutor because I love working individually with students, helping them understand material and grow more confident as learners! I majored in History and French at Northwestern and have worked for over a year as a classroom and private English teacher. I am qualified to teach English as a second language, French language, and all levels of academic writing. I'm also a \*huge\* standardized test geek--I'm here to help you prepare for tests like the SAT, LSAT, and GRE by helping you understand the logic of the test and the similarities among question types. My LSAT score puts me in the top half of one percent of all test takers--I have the skills to get you in the same range!

I am a recent graduate of Harvard College, graduating with a degree of High Honors in the History of Science. I am also anticipating entering dental school this coming Fall at Columbia College of Dental Medicine. In this interim year, I would love the opportunity to continue tutoring -- I have tutored all throughout college in a multitude of subjects, and this rewarding experience has not only helped the students, but has also allowed me the chance to myself better learn how to communicate with students of all ages and backgrounds.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, Varsity Tutors connects students from across Marlborough's 12 schools and 4 school districts with tutors who understand the local curriculum and academic expectations. Whether your student attends a elementary, middle, or high school in the area, we can match them with an expert tutor who's familiar with their school's standards and teaching approach.

Massachusetts has rigorous academic standards, and personalized 1-on-1 instruction is proven to help students master grade-level concepts more deeply. Tutors work with Marlborough students on the specific skills tested in MCAS and other state assessments, breaking down challenging material and building confidence in core subjects like math, ELA, and science.

Marlborough students typically seek help in math (especially algebra and geometry transitions), English language arts, and test preparation for MCAS and college entrance exams. We also work with students on science, foreign languages, and subject-specific challenges that arise as they progress through middle and high school.

The first session is a chance for the tutor to understand your student's learning style, current academic level, and specific goals. They'll assess where your student is strong and where they need support, then create a personalized plan that addresses those areas and builds on existing strengths.

While Marlborough schools maintain a solid 12:1 student-teacher ratio, personalized 1-on-1 instruction allows tutors to focus entirely on your student's unique learning needs, pace, and questions. This individualized attention helps students who learn differently, need to catch up, or want to accelerate ahead of their peers.

The right frequency depends on your student's goals and current challenges. Some students benefit from weekly sessions for ongoing support, while others prefer intensive help before MCAS or during difficult units. We can help you find a schedule that fits your family's needs and accelerates your student's progress.

Varsity Tutors connects students with expert tutors who have strong subject knowledge and teaching experience. Many have backgrounds in education, subject matter expertise, or professional experience in their fields, and all are vetted to ensure they can effectively support Marlborough students.

Simply tell us about your student's needs, grade level, and goals, and we'll match them with a tutor who's a great fit. You can discuss your student's schedule and learning preferences, then begin personalized instruction designed to help them succeed in their Marlborough school.
