...a language immersion school when I was younger, and as a result am fluent in Spanish. I have been tutoring since high school, in subjects ranging from math to college application essays to Spanish. During the school year, I volunteer as a tutor and mentor for high school students attending public schools in the Boston area.

I am a firm believer in the philosophy, "If the learner has not learned, then the...

...Brandeis University with a focus in computational and theoretical biophysics. I know that STEM classes can be intimidating to many. Every student has their own way of learning. My job is to figure out how my students learn and work within that framework to demystify these subjects. Everyone starts life as a scientist, questioning everything in their environment, and my goal is to bring my students back to their inherent inquisitive nature. In my spare...

...success, not only in the present moment but also in the future. Based on the knowledge and skills that I generated from my tutors growing up, I want to provide the students I tutor the same opportunities. Before, I used tutors, but now, my grades, studying strategies, and success have undoubtedly improved. I strongly encourage students to seek one-on-one support, especially outside of school, because it is a great way to understand all the material...

...Science. I have the most experience tutoring at the high school level; I actively participated in three tutoring programs at my high school and was appointed through my academic performance. Almost all math subjects, especially Algebra and Calculus, are really enjoyable for me to tutor because I love sharing my experiences and seeing students gain confidence in their abilities! Chemistry is a close second mostly because I am currently studying the material for the third...

...on to a doctorate program in astrophysics. I was heavily involved in the peer tutoring program at my high school. Being a private school we were more like extra teachers than usual peer tutors. We helped with lesson plans, graded work, and tests. I even was involved in picking the new Algebra 2 Text Books for the school. As such I bring a unique look behind the curtain of high school education to my tutoring...

...to both learn about and to teach others. I have worked with students who I knew well and student that I did not know prior to tutoring them in the past two years in order to help them better understand subjects they struggled with from algebra to calculus. What I enjoy most about tutoring and what motivates to help other students is being able to emphasize the interesting aspects of the subject to counteract the...

...with my students. I may ask them more questions than they ask me. I do this in order to determine where any fundamental misunderstandings exist. I find that in most instances, confused students are unclear on one or two simple, yet important ideas. Clearing these up, and deliberately following their implications, can make students have a much better level of understanding while also feeling confident in their knowledge. This processes defines my style of teaching.

I spend my free time hiking, sewing, knitting, cooking, and building Lego castles with my three younger siblings.

...coursework in physics is an extensive overview of many mathematical topics, including algebra, geometry, and calculus (multi-variable or vector). A strong intuition of maths and the language used to describe physical phenomena is something I have gained in my studies, and lends itself well to teaching these topics to others. In addition, I also teach the classical guitar privately and in several private schools in Upstate New York. I am in my fifth year of...

I am now working on some personal projects that...
