I am a Spanish Master's Graduate student who has taught Spanish to Auburn University students in my second year of the program as an instructor of record. I taught classes of 20-30 students diligently, making sure they were ready to continue their Spanish major/ minor in college.I have an extensive experience of over two years in teaching ESL students from the age of 5-18 privately. I have worked on reading comprehension, writing skills and exam preparation with my students, depending on their levels and needs.I am a firm believer in hands-on teaching the material and making it as fun and engaging as possible.

I graduated in 2011 from the College of the Holy Cross in Worcester MA. There I received my Bachelor's of Arts in Classics (that is, Latin and ancient Greek literature) with a concentration in Peace & Conflict Studies; right now I'm taking classes to ready myself for grad school for Psychology.During undergrad, I tutored Latin for the Classics Honors Society and volunteered as an ESL teacher. After graduating, I moved to Spain and built on my volunteer experience by obtaining a TEFL certficate and tutoring and teaching there for the duration of my visa; when I returned to Philadelphia, I started working as a classroom ESL teacher for Kaplan International.Maybe because of these experiences, my favorite subjects to help with tend to be those most involved with language - Latin, Spanish, Reading/Writing skills - as well as Psychology, a more recent passion. I'm also happy to assist students with math for test prep like the SAT and GRE. As a tutor I would consider my style to be supportive but challenging - I want my students to realize how capable they are, and to do that, they need to work! I believe in a relaxed and friendly environment but I know my clients' time is valuable, and we'll spend it as effectively as possible.
I am a graduate from the College of the Holy Cross, who also has a background in studying Chinese, Politics, Government, English and History. I am most knowledgeable in the field of Chinese language, and spent my junior year abroad in China participating in intensive language programs in Beijing and Shanghai. I have just returned from a post graduate year abroad in Taipei, Taiwan, and left being evaluated at an advanced level of written and spoken Chinese. I understand how difficult learning this language can be especially for high school students or for new learners because I remember I faced the same challenges when taking Chinese in High School myself. I am very passionate about teaching and look forward to passing on the knowledge that I have as well as the lessons that I have learned.
I received my Bachelor of Arts from the College of the Holy Cross in 2010, having majored in English Literature and Russian and Eastern European Studies. I have taught English in China and Thailand to students of all ages, prepared students for international exams, provided coaching for immigration interviews, and worked in both general and special education classrooms in the greater Buffalo region. I am inspired by those I teach and endeavor to help my students channel their creativity and realize their potential while making content relevant outside of the confines of the classroom.My approach? I have recently completed my Masters in English Education and understand that students of all ages struggle with material at some point in their academic careers. I believe we learn best from teachers we feel genuinely care about us and our success. As a high school ELA and Environmental Science teacher, I work to build strong relationships with my students to better motivate them and get them invested in their work. In addition to guiding students towards a clearer understanding of material, I simultaneously work to impart the importance of non-cognitive skills. Patience, grit, and determination are integral to student success and I work daily to inspire my students to be proactive, take risks, collaborate with others, set goals, and seek excellence for themselves and invest in their futures.As teachers, we can't ask our students to love Shakespeare or Statistics or SAT prep if we don't! I bring enthusiasm and love of learning to every tutoring session and measure my success by that of my students'.I spend my spare time reading, finding awesome books to recommend to my students, running, walking my dog, cooking for my friends and family, studying Mandarin, and planning my next trip to Asia.
I am a certified Deaf Education teacher. I have taught in five states in both public school settings and deaf schools. I have worked with students from pre-school through high school age with a focus mainly in elementary school. While my focus has been Deaf Education, I have experience with typical students along with those who have a variety of additional special needs. I believe that all students have the potential to achieve, and I tailor my instruction to allow each individual student to reach their highest potential. I have worked one-on-one with many students and enjoy that setting because it allows me to focus all my energy on making sure that one student learns the information needed. Through teaching, I have learned to be flexible and how to present information in a variety of ways to meet the needs of different students.
I have always had a passion for math and it's elegance. There is always more than one way to approach a problem, and the nature of how theories and concepts interconnect together still makes me marvel. I approach math as almost a game, where you have to follow a certain set of rules, but if you do, you find your answer and "win." While math has always come easy to me, I also appreciate how it can be quite the opposite for many others, and try to approach teaching it from their perspective, and to find the best way for them to connect to the material and come to their own understanding, and hopefully an appreciation of the concepts and wonder behind it all. I studied Math in my undergraduate school, where I also double majored in Theater. This added experience makes me a dynamic and engaging speaker that directly boosts my ability to convey these ideas in more than just a flat lecture format. I also have my Masters Degree in Math Education 7-12.
I am a 2018 graduate of College of the Holy Cross with a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and Education. With a dedication to service and drive to combat education inequality, I moved to New York City for a 2 year commitment with Teach For America, to teach Kindergarten in Brooklyn. During this time, I experienced the gaps in our education system and led my classroom with love in a high paced, emotionally demanding work environment. For my own mental health as an educator, I became a 250 hr Registered Yoga Teacher and have loved practicing and building a community with CorePower Yoga. My passion lies in socioemotional learning and mindfulness in everyday life. I graduated in June 2020 from Relay Graduate School of Education with a Masters of Arts in Teaching General and Special Education, grades 1-6. Currently I am a graduate student at Teachers College, Columbia University for mental health counseling. In my free time, you can find me baking, planning my next trip, or working on a new yoga inversion.
I graduated in 2011 with degrees in French and Psychology from the College of the Holy Cross in Worcester, MA. This is also where I began tutoring as part of a volunteer tutoring program at a local elementary school. I loved working one-on-one with the children, teaching them Reading, Spelling, or Math and watching their improvement week by week. But most of all, I loved seeing what a difference it makes to form a personal connection with each student, and this is why I have continued tutoring over the past several years. My passion for language has also combined perfectly with my passion for tutoring. When I studied abroad in Dijon, France, I taught English at a French preschool and also led English conversation classes with international students at my university. I also spent a year teaching English to students at a high school in France. Since then, I have had extensive experience tutoring French, most recently with private sessions in my Connecticut hometown.My favorite subject to tutor is French, because I love to make grammar more fun by integrating my passion for French life, culture, and food. I also am available to tutor in English, Psychology, and test preparation. In any subject I tutor, I like to make sure students are not afraid of their subject matter and are enjoying themselves! My calm, patient, and compassionate nature makes it easy for my students to feel at ease and not to be intimidated by what they are learning. I also focus on my students learning styles so that each student can learn in the most productive and successful way possible. When I am not tutoring, I enjoy cooking, playing the piano, listening to music, trying new foods, traveling, and most of all spending time with my family and friends.
I am an experienced career counselor and certified French interpreter pursuing my Master's in Psychotherapy.I have experience tutoring adults and children in a wide variety of subjects including but not limited to French, Reading, Writing, Mathematics, Chemistry, Psychology, Resume Writing, and Art.I have been recognized by the State of Connecticut for my outstanding work helping the general public, ex-offenders, and Connecticut's Haitian population find gainful employment. I take great pride in helping individuals of varying mental, physical, or socioeconomic backgrounds meet their educational and/or career goals by providing a supportive and personalized tutoring plan.
I am a French and History teacher originally from Massachusetts, now living in Brooklyn. I received my BA in History and French from the College of the Holy Cross and my Masters in Education from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst. I have worked with students my entire life, as a substitute, paraprofessional, and full-time teacher teaching both social studies and French. I spend my summers working in Nice, France at a summer camp for American high school students, running activities and trips while tutoring them in French. My main areas of expertise are French and History though I also tutor Literature and SAT Prep (Verbal/Writing). In my years as a teacher and tutor I have learned that having fun is a great indicator of success. Piling too much pressure onto students only creates stress and self-doubt so I like to keep things light. I like to make lots of comparisons to current events that are relevant to the subject matter at hand to make things less intimidating and foreign. When I am not working I like playing and recording original music, cooking (often French dishes, not surprisingly), and watching sports. I am a huge fan of Liverpool and all the New England teams (yeah, this year has been rough) and love watching my fantasy teams underachieve.
I have been a high school physics teacher for seven years. My focus is on providing students with strategies that help them approach problem solving in a methodical and organized manner. I encourage students to observe their surroundings and use those observations to make connections to what we are learning in the classroom. Through a methodical, inquiry-based approach, students learn how to think critically and approach new scenarios with confidence.
