Award-Winning Tutors from Boston University

My name is Adrian Time. I have a Master's Degree from John's Hopkins, with a 4.0 GPA. I was also on Dean's List in Medical School and ranked as their top student (different university). My undergrad studies were at Boston University.I have tutored medical school student for a few years (minimum). All subjects (except for reproductive), but Neuro, Cardio, Renal, Pulmonary, MSK, and many other medical subjects I have tutored/taught.Please let me know if you have further questions.

Passionate about fostering an interest in the field of math and science.

I have always a passion for curiosity. The buzzword "lifelong learner" has been around the education world for quite some time. But I want to have a lifelong curiosity. I always want to know things work and how to better understand things. I bring that same passion for curiosity to everything that I do, especially teaching and tutoring. Nothing brings me greater joy than being able to bring someone closer to their capability. My biggest teaching motto has been: "I don't teach based on what I know my students can already. I teach based on where I know they are capable of going and what they are capable of doing." I believe that people should always strive to know more. Curiosity makes the world a better and, frankly, a more fun place. If I can instill that lifelong curiosity into even one of my students, I would have reached success.I also firmly believe that conversation is a huge part of a successful teaching/learning process. No one knows how the students learn better than the students themselves. I constantly check in with how students are doing, often before I tell them how I think they are doing. This constantly dialogue allows us to form a better connection and does nothing but allow me to teach and the student learn better. I want to know their goals, interests, hobbies, learning styles, and anything and everything in between. This process is not a dictatorship but a partnership.I look forward to getting know my students and helping them on their educational journey!!!!

After completing dual Bachelors' degrees in History and French Language and Literature at Boston University, I went on to obtain a Master's degree in History at Northeastern University. I currently work in the museum field and decided to get in to tutoring in order to share my love of learning with students and to keep my French language skills sharp.

I am an experienced teacher and tutor in varied disciplines-- music, reading, writing, math, French-- with students ranging from underprivileged preschoolers in rural Tennessee to Houston high schoolers to adults. I never received less than a perfect score on the SAT or PSAT verbal tests, in two sittings of each test. As a musician, clarity of communication (via clear, logical syntax and rhetoric) is paramount to my teaching which makes me particularly effective for students working to internalize the mechanics of language.I love helping young people learn and strengthen their skills.

I am currently a Teaching Assistant for a Calculus 1 and Calculus 2 class at the University of Texas, where I work with smaller and larger groups of students to correct misconceptions and deepen understanding. Before moving to the area, I was a full-time math teacher in Boston for 4 years, where I was in charge of writing and developing differentiated lesson plans based on students' learning types and abilities, while creating an atmosphere that is conducive to student learning and fosters confidence both socially and mathematically. I am able to transfer this to one-on-one tutoring sessions and find the best way to help my students reach their full potential. I am confident in my mathematical knowledge, but even more so in my ability to use hands-on lessons to create an untapped love of mathematics.

I am a rising junior at Boston University majoring in Psychology. I have experience tutoring middle schoolers one-on-one in algebra and writing. I am also fluent in Korean, and have experience teaching elementary and middle school students Korean. Tutoring is a very rewarding job for me; I feel a rush of excitement when I help a student finally understand a concept. Therefore, I am a very thorough instructor, and am determined to help my students using every possible resource and method. Furthermore, I have had extensive experience being tutored throughout my academic career, and am well aware of the value of a good tutor. I still remember the amazing tutors who worked with me tirelessly, and I can still recall the exact moments when they made everything click for me. I hope to be that kind of memorable tutor for my students.

As a third grade ICT teacher for the Nest Program (children with Autism), I completely understand the importance of collaboration with other teachers and students. After completing my undergraduate degree in Psychology at Boston University, I continued my academic career at Adelphi University to receive a Master's Degree in Childhood Education. Now, I will be completing my 8th year as a teacher for the Department of Education.Since I am always interested trying new things and challenging myself, I recently began rock climbing. I love the mental and physical challenges of different activities and exercising. Traveling and exploring the world is another great love of mine. I have been lucky to have many wonderful memories experiencing different cultures, people and land. Sharing my travels and thousands of photographs with my family and students is humbling and exciting for me. In addition, I look forward to taking pottery classes with my mother to continue exploring things I enjoy and taking time to center myself. As a new mother, I can understand how necessary it is to take care of yourself so that you can bring your best to those in your life.I look forward to working with all students with all different needs!

As a professor of writing at Florida International University in Miami, FL, I have extensive experience in working with students on their academic writing assignments, as well as editing written projects for those in need of such assistance.Over the past five years, I have also worked closely with students in comprehending the oral and written conventions of English, and I've taught English as a Second Language to Spanish speakers.In 2011, I graduated from Boston University with a master's degree in writing.I look forward to working with you on your writing projects. Thank you!

I am a graduate of Boston University with a Bachelor of Science in Neuroscience and a minor in Public Health. My experience spans from clinical research to direct patient care, providing unique insights into how different minds learn and process information. While working with diverse age groups - from infants at Ethos Learning Center to adults with psychiatric disorders - I've developed an adaptable teaching approach that addresses various learning needs. I tutor subjects across the sciences and mathematics with particular enthusiasm for Neuroscience, Biology, Psychology, and math, where I blend academic concepts with real-world applications. My teaching philosophy centers on creating a comfortable learning atmosphere through personalized approaches, with each student receiving an individualized learning plan based on their unique style. Additionally, My background in research at Boston University has enhanced my ability to break down complex concepts into understandable components, making challenging material more accessible and engaging for students.

Hi! I am an undergraduate student at Boston University. I am studying Nutrition Science with a minor in Human Anatomy and Physiology on a pre-medical track. I have tutored children in grades K-6 in the Boston Public Schools for the last 2 years, but I have been working with students in classrooms my entire life. I have also worked with students with disabilities since the age of 12, so I am comfortable working students of all skill ranges. My specialty areas include math, literacy, science and prep for elementary through college testing. I am also a violinist and dancer so I am well versed in music theory courses. Teaching has always been something I am passionate about, and I look forward to continuing to do so.

Hello! I'm Andi. I have over five years of teaching experience, including: as a peer tutor in graduate school while I worked on my Master's in Public Health, as a teacher's assistant for Chemistry in high school, as a teacher's assistant for Biology and Chemistry in college, and as a forensic science teacher at a pre-collegiate summer camp. I have worked as a researcher at Boston Children's Hospital and Harvard Medical School. I am a first year law student at Northeastern University. I will be working as a first year legal writing TA in the fall, so happy to help with any legal writing questions. I love teaching and hope to help you succeed, whether in your preparation for the LSAT or in your biology or chemistry class. I hope to work with you!

I have many years of experience tutoring a variety of subjects in math and science with people of all ages. Ever since I was a peer tutor in my high school years, I realized I had a gift for explaining mathematical concepts to others. I am really good at bringing complex and abstract concepts down into a simpler framework for any individual to understand. I'm a fairly down-to-earth person and have been known to make learning math/science fun and interesting. I have a lot of patience and try my hardest to be conscientious of other's learning pace and feelings; I try hard to be a compassionate mentor!

Hello! My name is Connor and it is my passion to tutor. I am currently a senior at Boston University studying Neuroscience and am also a Pre-Medical student. I would be happy to assist you with tutoring in the scientific field. Please feel free to reach out directly as my posted hours are very flexible and I am very accessible as well. Thank you and I can't wait to help!

I received my PhD in developmental psychology from the University of California, Riverside. I received my bachelor???s degree in psychology and religious studies from Boston University. I tutor individuals in psychology and GRE prep. I have taught undergraduate classes in Intro Psychology, Developmental Psychology, and Statistics. I have also spent 6 years as a teaching assistant for many undergraduate classes in psychology. When teaching and tutoring students, I focus on conversation, allowing the students the opportunity to truly understand the material and internalize it through a back and forth. While I expect my students to be prepared, I do not expect them to learn on their own. The purpose of tutoring is to come to an understanding of the material together.

After a 15 year career in chemistry, I now primarily practice Acupuncture in Brighton. I still love the subject, and enjoy tutoring students in Organic and General Chemistry.Chemistry is really not so hard as it first appears to be. There are a few key concepts that I like to pass along that can clarify and simplify the problem sets that students face. In some cases, it is a matter of being able to express a problem in mathematical terms. In others it is being able to visualize exactly what happens in a reaction. After being pointed in the right direction, and with a little practice, most any student can excel in chemistry.

I am a passionate educator with a Bachelor's in History from Boston University, specializing in World History, Creative Writing, Essay Editing, and Public Speaking. My teaching philosophy centers on fostering a supportive and engaging learning environment where students feel encouraged to express their ideas and grow in confidence. I believe that every student has unique strengths, and I strive to tailor my approach to meet their individual needs. I am dedicated to helping students develop critical thinking skills and articulate their thoughts effectively, which fuels my motivation to teach. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy reading historical fiction and exploring new cultures, which further enriches my teaching and connects me with my students' interests.

As a native French speaker, I have many years of experience teaching French to children and adults at all levels of proficiency. My tutoring philosophy has always been, "If you're having fun, learning is easy". I love teaching French because I believe that multilingual children grow into globally aware and culturally sensitive adults. French is spoken in 29 different countries, and bilingual students are better able to appreciate cultural nuances and possess a better understanding of different cultures.I have helped students at the elementary school, high school, and university levels achieve their French language goals and vastly improve their vocabulary, grammar, conjugation, pronunciation, and cultural awareness. I'd love to help your kids fall in love with the French language and culture, and achieve their academic goals!

As a member of the graduating class of 2021, I am a junior at Boston University and plan on attaining a Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology. I graduated high school as the top 10% in my class and with Regents Diploma with Honors. I started tutoring since I was thirteen years old and thus, I have experiences teaching adults and children from different age groups. I have taken math courses up to Calculus II and received A's in all the math courses I took. As a native Mandarin speaker as well as a past teacher's assistant in the language class, I learned to develop the most effective way to teach my native language to a student who is new to my language. I believe that education is the key to success, but a well-developed, trusting relationship between a tutor and a student can transform lives. I had helped a struggling high school student be college ready and pursued his parents, whose primary concern is academic, to allow him to continue to be the lead member of the basketball team in his school. In a large classroom setting, I intervened in bullying situations and ensured that every child feels welcome in the classroom. I serve as my student's friend, educator and mentor. As tutors, I believe that we not only need to give the students the knowledge they need, but also need to provide them a warm, welcoming environment that promote the learning process. In my free time, I enjoy giving back to my community. I volunteered at a dog shelter and read out loud picture books to kids with reading disability. I am also a dancer and an amateur photographer.

Too much of life is learned through trial and error. While this way of learning develops resolve and resilience, it wastes our most precious resource: time.You are reading this because you believe that it is worth investing money to be taught something because it will save you time. I am here to teach you things in a no nonsense, no frills, results-oriented way. Trust that you and I have the same goal: seeing you succeed.I have tutored and mentored other students who have earned entry into Ivy League schools and top NYC public schools. I believe that doing well in school is not solely about the grades you make, but also about the hands you shake. In addition to teaching you trignometry, I will mentor you on how to approach school.My name is Alif. I work as a finance & risk consultant. I do not tutor for the money. I tutor to be surrounded by kids who are hungry to succeed.

I am a retired publishing professional with decades of experience in tutoring the English language. After retiring from publishing, I got myteaching certification, provided homework help to students with learning disabilities, and taught General Science at the Middle Schoollevel. I am also experienced in teaching English as a Second Language. I have worked with students in a Red Cross "survival skills" ESLprogram and I have worked with middle-school, high-school, and college students who needed help with English, Reading Comprehension,Writing, and ESL skills.I see myself as a "professional explainer." My undergraduate degree is a Bachelor of Arts from Goddard College with a concentrationin biology. I also hold a Master of Science from Boston University in Communications with a concentration in science and technology. Inthis degree program, students learn how to make complex material accessible to non-expert audiences. As a result of this training and myyears working with non-fiction writers, I bring a wealth of experience in finding many ways to help students understand complex concepts.I also like to call myself an academic coach. A coach helps students understand the material in front of them. A coach also pays closeattention to building a student's academic "muscles." My goal is always to equip the student with the intellectual and analytical toolsthat will enable them to succeed not just in school but in all their endeavors. My reward comes from watching the student grow andbecome an independent thinker.My joy in tutoring comes from seeing a student "get it" for the first time and in seeing the student's confidence grow as we work together.

I graduated from Boston University in 2012 with Electrical engineering as my major. However, I knew I also was not finished with my time as a student. I was accepted to graduate school at UCLA with a fellowshipto further my study in engineering. I spent two and a half years there completing my Masters of Science. To pay tuition, I worked as a Teaching Assistant and later a Teaching Associate for the University.Additionally, during High School and college, I spent many summers working as a Sailing Instructor. My last year I was Head Instructor at Rockland Community Sailing. This was especially rewarding for me, because this particular community sail program welcomed children of Youthlinks, a part of Broadreach Family and Community Services, aimed at serving underprivileged kids in the area. This program, and it's connection to us, allowed children who otherwise would have never have had a chance to step foot on a boat, the opportunity to learn how to sail and have an amazing summer. After that summer, I knew I wanted to get involved helping students who do not grow up with the same privileges that I did.

As a student at Boston University, achieving high academic desires and grades comes with work ethic. I have put countless efforts in taking many approaches in my academic career in a competitive environment. This has helped me understand that memorizing textbooks is not all to it learning, but it is the way of breaking down concepts and integrating it into applicable situations. I want to not only help students learn their desired material, but also to internalize it.I was born in Tokyo, Japan and moved to Honolulu, Hawaii gaining a deep understanding of both cultures. I am bilingual and can read, write, and speak Japanese at high business level. Even now, I constantly study the language because of how complex it is.I am also comfortable and confident in teaching K-12 subjects in math and also introductory college business courses such as financial accounting and introduction to business. I previously tutored math and Japanese in high school and had great time seeing their progression each week.On my downtime, I enjoy hiking the steep mountains of Oahu and body surfing in the warm waters that Hawaii has to offer. I also get quite heated in a game of chess..I look forward to helping you along the way in achieving your academic desires.

I am a graduate of Boston University where I received my degree in Latin, Ancient Greek, and Classical History. I also received a minor in Anthropology and graduated summa cum laude with honors. I worked as a tutor helping my fellow students with their Latin and Ancient Greek courses. I am passionate about helping students gain a deep understanding of vocabulary, grammar, and syntax (both English and Latin) in order to succeed in their writing and translating assignments.I am also passionate about building effective and efficient study habits and methods.

I'm a Boston University graduate with a B.A. in economics and history. I've tutored students in a wide range of subjects including world history, US history, macro/microeconomics, statistics, algebra, Spanish, and geography. Before becoming a tutor, I worked at multiple museums as a tour guide and class instructor. Everyone has subjects that give them more trouble than others, but I'm a firm believer that anything can be learned by anyone, and that learning is more about good habits and creative teaching techniques than it is about natural aptitude for a subject. I was personally able to test this idea when I changed my approach to learning Spanish after struggling for years in formal classes. After re-engineering my study strategy to complement my strengths and weaknesses, I was able to teach myself to be a fluent Spanish speaker in less than a year. With the lessons learned from this experience in mind, I seek to teach my students learning skills that help them get the grade they want in the short-term, but also prepare them to conquer future academic challenges in the long-term.

I have been an ESL teacher for five years and an English literature, language and writing tutor for nearly ten years. My classroom philosophy is to guide students to discover the answers for themselves so that they may learn useful and applicable methods, ensuring their future success and confidence in English language and literature.

I am agraduate of the University of Minnesota with a B.A. in History (minor in French) and Masters degree in the History of Art and Architecture from Boston University.I have worked with students of varying backgrounds, abilities, and goals since 2013, having first started with Americorps' College Possible (College Access Program) and then working for several tutoring organizations, focusing on both test prep and academics.Through these experiences, I have found it most rewarding to help each student realize his or her goal and aid them in accomplishing it with distinction. I enjoy determining the unique approach necessary for each student to succeed.Furthermore, I am passionate about not only teaching my students the material necessary to improve their scores on standardized tests and their grades in their classes, but also keeping them engaged as they progress through any test prep/academic programs.As someone who has been working with high schoolers since college, I find that I am able to connect with students on the important process of excelling both in school and on standardized tests such as the ACT, SAT, PSAT, SSAT, ISEE, and the AP/SAT Subject Test exams. Though these provide schools with a glimpse into the student, I want to help them put their best foot forward.In my spare time, I enjoy spending quality time with my wife and friends, exploring and relaxing at the nearby beaches, learninghistorical trivia, cooking, and exercise.

Arjun Reddy (he/him/his). Howdy! I graduated cum laude with a Bachelors in Neuroscience and Pre-Med. I am currently in graduate school pursuing my Master's. I tutored all types of students in Chemistry, Physics, and Math. I tutored privately in high-school mostly to middle-schoolers and other high schoolers in science and math. In college I tutored students through the university's tutoring center for three years before tutoring privately again in my last year. I've seen students who've never taken a course before to those who are coming back to school after working or serving in the military.While in high-school I realized I had a knack for explaining subjects and concepts in many different ways, often relating them to students in new analogies or different aspects. In this way I was able to communicate concepts, thoughts, and material more effectively. I've always been the type to help out other students in need and am often the person people reach out to for quick tips. The way I have advanced and polished this trait and the techniques I use over my college years as a tutor working for both the university as well as privately.I like to ask my students questions to see how much and what they know before diving into problems. When we do problems, I like to work a few out with a student and explain what I'm doing in each step and why. Then I slowly hand the reigns off to the student to work through the problems more and more independently while explaining back to me what they're doing. This way I know the student is learning the material properly and will be able to work without my help in the future. Of course this method can be adjusted to fit each students individual needs.I'm always excited when I see a student's eyes light up with the excitement of learning a new concept or finally being able to solve a problem they couldn't before. I like the challenge of hard questions and explaining hard concepts. I'm easy to reach and respond relatively quickly so don't hesitate to shoot me a line!

I received my Master of Science in data analytics. I have helped students with questions about data science and statistics related projects for a year now. I enjoy problem solving and help with any data science and statistics related question using my skill set.

First things first- I love learning!As someone who's worked with foreign languages for a number of years, I have extensive experience from both sides of the language learning sphere- teaching and learning. My training in Linguistics has given me a deeper understanding of the inner-workings of both Language and the brain with language acquisition. This expertise helps me take a more logical, natural approach to language learning- something so many language teachers these days seem to miss!By keeping lessons interesting, practical, and engaging, I am able to help students gain confidence, learn to think IN the language, and learn the tools to develop their own language capacities.

Learn from a finance industry professional with nearly 2 decades of experience. Formally trained in Economics with an MBA in Finance. I am also a CFA Charterholder.My talent in explaining difficult concepts easy to understand!

I have taught first- and second-semester French to Boston University undergraduate students. I was the instructor of record for the class, and my students referred to me as either "Monsieur," or, inaccurately, "Professor." For two summers, I tutored Reading Comprehension. What makes me a great tutor is my passion for student success and my love for the subjects I want to teach. The diversity of my students has taught me to adopt a new persona to fit each particular student. Zany playfulness is often the best for younger students, a certain amount of sarcastic humor can help engage some disaffected older students, etc.

I am available to tutor in writing, English, test prep, and many other subjects. I enjoy helping people advance and realize their potential.

I graduated from Gordon College in 2010 with a Bachelor of Arts in International Relations. I focused on political relations in Europe and Latin America. After graduating, I received my Master's in International Relations, where I specialized in Spain-US relations. I have worked or interned for the Department of State, the Spanish Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and two members of the United States Congress. I also had the opportunity to study at the University of Deusto in Bilbao, Spain, investigating international financial systems during the 2007-08 Financial Crisis. I had my first taste of teaching as an ESL volunteer as an undergraduate. I knew I had a passion for instructing; so while a student, I worked as a Teaching Assistant and later a Graduate Assistant for undergraduate courses. Don't let my Irish-American name fool you, I have worked in Spanish, French, and Catalan at the professional level. I plan to pursue a law degree in the near future. I bring eight years of research and writing and teaching in the US, Spain, Canada, and Chile, and I'm excited to bring my diverse background to the table in order to help you reach your educational goals.

As a current International Relations student at Boston University, I am passionate about education and communication, which drives my commitment to tutoring. With experience in teaching AP English and Spanish, I focus on building students' confidence through tailored lessons that align with their individual learning styles and goals. My teaching approach emphasizes engagement and accessibility, utilizing diverse methods such as visual aids and hands-on activities to enhance comprehension. I believe in empowering students not just academically, but also in developing their motivation and enthusiasm for learning. Being fluent in Spanish, I am excited to support students in mastering both language and literacy skills. In my free time, I enjoy being active on the varsity crew team, which has strengthened my leadership and teamwork skillsqualities I strive to bring into my tutoring sessions.

I am a Finance professional with an academic background in Political Science, International Relations, and Business. My academic preparation opened a world of opportunities. I have lived, worked, and traveled in Europe, Africa, Latin America, and Asia. I recently relocated from NYC back to Miami. I am an extroverted introvert that enjoys meeting new people and learning, not only from books, but also from the day to day.

I graduated from Boston University May 2015. I am currently a student at both Hunter College and City College, preparing to go to medical school. I have extensive tutoring experience, mostly with high school students. I am outgoing, nice, funny, and can explain concepts in an easy way.I am apt in tutoring in Math, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, and SAT. I believe that there is more to life than just studying and receiving good grades. Studying can become a burden when it gets complicated and difficult to understand and can get in the way of you just living. I am here to help you to make it less of a problem for you, and find your own unique method of studying to prevent studying from becoming such a nuisance.

Definitely no stranger to academia, I have a Bachelor Degree in Linguistics from Carnegie Mellon, a Bachelor Degree in Electrical Engineering from University at Buffalo, and a Masters Degree in Mechanical Engineering from Boston University. I have over a decade of tutoring experience and pride myself in really connecting with my students' learning styles and aspirations. My main strength as a tutor is in the maths, but I can also offer exemplary essay editing advice and my engineering background is comfortable giving computer programming assistance as well.

I recently completed a Ph.D. in Consumer and Family Economics and Consumer Behavior at Purdue University. I have extensive experience teaching and tutoring undergraduate students in various courses in economics. I love helping students learn new topics through simple and relatable examples. I try to create a friendly environment for my students where they can succeed in their learning journey.

I am a senior at Boston University working toward a Bachelor of Arts in biology with a specialization in behavior. This past winter, I studied tropical ecology in Ecuador for four months and one of those months was at a research station in the Amazon rainforest. Aside from my field studies, I have interned at several zoos and aquariums, including Naples Zoo at Caribbean Gardens, with a wide range of species and with the mission of using education to improve the relationship between people and the animals with which we share our planet. I am most passionate about ecology, life sciences, and psychology, but I believe that a well-rounded education is incredibly important and that any subject can be made applicable to any interest.A fair combination of hard work and fun is my standard for life and for teaching. I like to help students use their strengths to help balance and improve weaknesses. As a previously anxious test-taker myself, I know firsthand how challenging standardized testing can be, but I can share valuable strategies to help a student reach his or her full potential.In my spare time, I enjoy playing the cello and singing, hiking, kayaking, cooking, and practicing American Sign Language.
