I'm a research assistant at a foreign policy think tank in Washington, DC. My work focuses on political transitions, military conflict and the economic development of the Middle East, Turkey, Iran and the Caucasus.I was born and raised in Beirut, Lebanon. I studied at a French private school and graduated with a French high school diploma (or le baccalaurat franais). I went to Boston University in Boston, MA for my undergraduate studies where I majored in Economics and International Relations. Thus, I am native in Arabic, Armenian and French, fluent in Turkish and have an intermediate fluency level in Azerbaijani and Farsi (due to my upbringing, background and education).I'm very passionate about teaching languages, European and World History to students of different levels and ages. I can also help you prepare for the GRE as I have studied for it extensively in preparation for my graduate school applications. I believe that patience, hard work and dedication in conveying the message to the student pays off at the end and is a very rewarding experience for the tutor and student at once.

A small-town girl from Connecticut, I attended the University of Rhode Island, where I achieved my Bachelor's degree in Writing and Rhetoric, graduating Summa Cum Laude. Writing has always been a passion of mine, and although it is not for everyone, I believe that passion is contagious.I first began tutoring in my college's Writing Center during my senior year, helping students of all ages improve all different aspects of their writing. As I loved tutoring others so much, I began to tutor professionally, working with students from kindergarten to graduate school. Writing, Reading, Grammar and Elementary Math are the cornerstones of a solid education, an education that leads our upcoming generations to success.In my freetime, my husband and I enjoy spending time with our dogs, exploring the city of Boston, traveling New England and spending time outdoors. I like to spend my time reading, exploring the world of gluten-free foods, capturing life through photography and enjoying a good cup of coffee.

I am an artist, designer, and educator with experience tutoring and teaching in a wide variety of subjects within fine arts and humanities. I approach each session with the belief that each student is unique, and thus has unique needs, talents, and interests. I will adapt to a student's learning style and pace to help them achieve their goals. I also believe tutoring can be fun when both the student and tutor have open minds and positive attitudes. I can't wait to get started!

I have a Master's degree in Hispanic Studies from Boston College and have taught Spanish in the classroom and 1 on 1. My goal is to help students succeed in Spanish by developing their critical thinking skills, providing study techniques that are specific to second language acquisition, and offering a different teaching style than the students' current teacher in order to optimize learning.

I am a graduate of McGill University and have a double major in Chemistry and English Literature. In the two years post college, I taught in two different school districts through AmeriCorps, the domestic Peace Corps. Last year,I taught K-5 grade in small group settings and managed a homework club. This year, I advise high school students on the college admissions process. I enjoy working with students and helping them achieve their personal best! I look forward to tutoring students this year and assisting them in their studies.

In 2013 I graduated from Houston Baptist University with my Bachelor of Arts in English and Biblical Languages. I minored in Latin and received the outstanding student award in English. After my BA, I moved from Houston to Boston with my husband. In 2015 I earned my MA in Classical Studies from the University of Massachusetts in Boston, focusing on Greek and Latin literature. I am currently working on my PhD in English Literature at Southern Methodist University. I specialize in the intersection between ancient texts and Christianity as it is evident in Renaissance literature. During my MA I worked as a teacher's assistant, learning teaching strategies from many distinguished professors. Students met with me one on one to discuss assignments, work on papers, and review for tests. During these years I had the opportunity to work with several ESL students and students with disabilities. Being deaf in my right ear gives me a unique perspective when working with students struggling with disabilities because I have fought those battles myself, albeit to a smaller degree than some. I firmly believe that disabilities should never stand in the way of learning.I currently teach DISC writing courses at SMU and help students make sure that their writing is up to the collegiate level. I also work with an ESL program in the Frisco area. In this program, I help students of all levels in their journey to learn English.I love literature, and I hope to be able to share that joy with others. I am always happy to help students improve their writing and expand their vocabularies, regardless of the language. When it comes to test prep, my knowledge of Latin and Greek allows me to point out roots of words that will enable students to determine vocabulary definitions much faster. A good education provides a strong foundation for life, and I love helping others establish that firm ground from which they will continue to grow. I am always challenging myself by reading new books and articles.Throughout my life, I have studied Spanish, Latin, German, Hebrew, Greek, Old English, and Japanese. This strong background in foreign languages means that I am intimately familiar with the language acquisition process, and I love using that background to help others take their first steps with a foreign language. I firmly believe that learning another language should be fun and that it is one of the most rewarding journeys a person can take. When working with children, I like to use items that they already know and love to help them learn.

I have always enjoyed figuring out novel ways of presenting information so that others can understand the material being presented. I believe that all knowledge can have real-world applicability, so in the classroom I often use a lot of analogies and stories in order to make the information relevant. I also specialize in connecting with all people--regardless of age--on their level, which makes teaching and tutoring a lot of fun for both of us. I am CELTA certified, and have learned the appropriate pedagogical techniques to work one-on-one with people. I applied those skills in France, where I tutored three individuals (two pre-teen sisters and one adult male) in English.

Hi! My name is Conor MacGinnis and I am a writing tutor of 2 years with a Bachelor's in Creative Writing and a minor in Philosophy. I enjoy and specialize in the creative writing process and I have years of experience working with high school and undergraduate as well as graduate students perfect their voice. Everybody can write. I don't care who you are. I am so happy to help you realize this too.

I graduated from Brown University in 2015 with honors, magna cum laude, and Phi Beta Kappa. I have a B.A. in Education and I am currently working on my Masters in Teaching degree back at Brown, with a focus on secondary social studies/history. In between, I taught 8th grade American Studies full-time at a private school in California, tutoring students on the side in both writing and math. I also ran an afterschool support program for students with learning differences who needed help with planning, organization, and structuring their work time.Throughout my undergraduate career, I worked with students from age six to age eighteen, usually with a focus on reading and writing, but with occasional forays into social studies, science, and Taekwondo.My favorite subjects to tutor are middle and high school writing and math through Algebra I. I also tutor in the elementary grades, in Spanish, and in history.I am willing to meet each student where they are and go from there. I encourage students to embrace a growth mindset, believing that they are capable of great success with hard work and determination. I am extremely patient and willing to try multiple avenues to reach your student in the most effective way.I have loved working with kids since I was one myself--I've babysat since I was eleven, and I've been "tutoring" my younger brother and sister and my friends since I was in middle school. Working with students one-on-one is something I missed as a teacher last year, and the reason why I chose to take on tutoring in addition to my teaching responsibilities. There is nothing better than seeing the pride and confidence of a student grow along with their academic skills.

I am experienced public education school teacher, having taught elementary mathematics, remedial math and 6th grade for 5 years. I am a graduate of Lesley University with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Education and I also hold a Master of Science in Education from Wheelock College. I primarily tutor students in elementary school mathematics.Along with my education, I have had over 30 years of experience in the business sector, in retail and corporate sales, customer and human services and restaurant management.My experience gives me a view of education and instruction through a broad lens. This helps me frame teaching concepts in creative ways for students who will need to apply them to real-world situations.In addition to teaching and work experience, I have acted as a mentor to students embracing martial arts skills, allowing me to impart to my students an understanding of the importance of focus, self-discipline, and perseverance.
