Jeffrey
Pre-Calculus Tutor • +29 Subjects
I am enrolled in the Mechanical Engineering PhD program at Rice University which will begin Fall 2020, and I am hoping to return to academia as a professor after earning my PhD. In the meantime, I am looking to share my passion for gaining knowledge, specifically in STEM, by educating the up and coming members of such a great field. I have experience tutoring both Calculus and Physics at Notre Dame, as well as experience as a Student Assistant for Differential Equations and Mechanics. I believe the key to learning is much deeper than learning to solve problems and that seeking knowledge is one of the best means for personal improvement.

I am available to tutor middle and high school math, history and test prep. I have tutored math and history in the past and I previously taught a test prep course at a school in Hanoi, Vietnam. I have a lot of experience teaching all the need-to-know tricks to doing great on the SATS/ACTS! When I am not in school myself, I love rowing, equestrian and exploring my new city of Boston! I look forward to meeting and working with you soon!
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!
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.

Quinn
Calculus Tutor • +17 Subjects
I am willing to address any issue with an open mind and I try to develop strategies that play to a student's strengths. I would like to think I am very approachable and personable, and I have had very positive experiences with many students in the past using this philosophy. Outside of academics, I love playing basketball and watching sports, as well as chilling with friends, listening to music, and keeping up with politics and current affairs.

I am a graduate of the University of Chicago, and I will be starting a graduate program at Columbia in August. I am about to complete a year of service with City Year, an education non-profit that places young adults into under-served schools. As a City Year member, I worked full-time in the classroom with middle-school students who were in approximately the 10th percentile for math (meaning they score lower than 90% of students). One-fourth of those students were able to grow around 15 percentile points by the end of the year! Hobbies: reading, cooking, gardening, music, art, nature, books, writing
Charles
AP Calculus AB Tutor • +25 Subjects
I am a junior Mechanical Engineering major at Yale, and I hope to become a Naval Aviator after college. I am also a varsity sailor, and enjoy playing music with friends when I can get some free time. I have been tutoring my fellow students throughout my entire academic career, and I would best describe my tutoring style as one that adapts to each students' needs. For example, I have always tried to frame questions in a different way so that the student can better understand the question. Some students need visual representations of numbers and systems to understand them, and others benefit more by understanding the concepts behind each formula. I prefer to tutor in math and physics, and especially with real world application problems. I hope to help students improve their standardized test scores and their understanding of the math and sciences so that they can achieve their academic goals! Hobbies: art, books, running, reading, music, writing

Frequently Asked Questions
After-school students often struggle with time management between academics and enrichment activities, maintaining focus during extended learning hours, and transitioning between different instructional styles. Many students also face challenges with homework completion when they're already mentally fatigued from a full school day, or difficulty engaging with subjects that require sustained concentration in a group setting. Personalized tutoring addresses these challenges by allowing students to work at their own pace during optimal learning windows and receive targeted support for the specific subjects or skills causing frustration.
Effective after-school tutors need strong subject expertise across core academics (math, reading, writing, science) along with the ability to adapt instruction for students who may be tired or less engaged after a full school day. They should have experience working with diverse learners, understand child development and motivation strategies, and be skilled at breaking complex concepts into manageable pieces. Additionally, great after-school tutors are organized, patient, and able to build rapport quickly—essential skills when working with students who may be resistant to additional academic support.
After-school tutoring works best when it incorporates interactive, hands-on learning strategies that feel different from traditional classroom instruction. Tutors can use games, real-world applications, and project-based activities to make subjects more engaging for students who are experiencing afternoon fatigue. Personalized instruction also allows tutors to connect lessons to a student's interests and learning style, which significantly boosts motivation and retention compared to group after-school settings where instruction is one-size-fits-all.
Many students arrive at after-school programs overwhelmed by homework or unsure how to approach assignments independently. A tutor can teach students effective homework strategies—like breaking assignments into steps, checking work systematically, and identifying when to ask for help—rather than simply providing answers. This builds academic independence and confidence, so students develop skills they can apply to future assignments without constant adult support.
Yes—after-school tutoring is ideal for addressing gaps in foundational skills like reading fluency, math computation, or writing mechanics that may have been missed or under-taught during regular school hours. Because tutors can diagnose exactly where a student's understanding breaks down and target instruction to those specific areas, students often catch up faster than they would in a classroom setting. Regular after-school sessions also provide consistent reinforcement, which is critical for students who struggle with retention or need more practice to master new concepts.
Progress in after-school tutoring shows up in concrete ways: improved homework completion rates, higher grades on assignments and tests, increased confidence when tackling new material independently, and better behavior during academic tasks. Students often demonstrate progress within 4-6 weeks through improved focus, faster problem-solving, and reduced frustration when encountering challenging work. Parents and teachers typically notice these shifts quickly because after-school tutoring provides consistent, focused support that compounds over time.
Group after-school programs serve many students with varying needs, making it difficult for instructors to address individual learning gaps or adjust pacing. Personalized tutoring allows a tutor to focus entirely on one student's specific challenges, learning style, and goals—whether that's building confidence in math, improving reading comprehension, or developing better study habits. This one-on-one approach means students get immediate feedback, can ask questions without feeling rushed, and receive instruction calibrated to their exact skill level rather than the average of the group.
Math and reading are the most common areas where after-school students need support, as these foundational skills underpin success in all other subjects. However, science, writing, and social-emotional skills like organization and time management also benefit significantly from personalized instruction. The best approach is to identify where a student is struggling most—whether that's computational fluency, reading comprehension, or the ability to organize thoughts for writing—and target tutoring to those specific areas for maximum impact.
