Ander

American Literature Tutor • +27 Subjects

I am a student at Harvard. I study Physics and will be receiving my Bachelor of Science degree in the next couple of years. With a goal to continue 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 work. Through this program, I tutored Algebra 1, Geometry, Algebra 2, Pre-Calculus, and Trigonometry for four years. I then went on to teach of all of the same at my high school's summer school program for three years. From there I attended and worked for City Year. City Year is a nonprofit sponsored by Americorps that provides extra support for students in low-income public schools around the country. In tutoring I believe in a fun and engaging real world look at subjects. I firmly believe that students who enjoy engaging with their subjects are much more likely to succeed. As a tutor, it is my job to help my students find subjects more engaging and more fun. Outside of the classroom, I enjoy Star Wars, cooking, and playing board games.

Cassandra

ACT Prep Tutor • +19 Subjects

I am a current PhD candidate in experimental geophysics at MIT. I have successfully tutored dozens of students for the GRE; these students report not only higher scores but deeper understanding of the material, even in areas they have struggled with for years. Many of my students have not taken relevant quantitative courses for years and have forgotten much of their fundamental math skills, but after working with me for a short time, they are able to achieve great GRE quantitative scores. Students also enjoy my approach to the verbal section, where we work on decoding the questions and narrowing answer choices based on the type of question. I focus on a strong understanding of the concepts being tested as well as on test-taking skills. After working together, all of my students feel more comfortable entering the exam and sure of their own abilities, and nearly all of my students end up meeting or exceeding their original score goals.

Brenna

Accounting Tutor • +53 Subjects

I am a recent graduate of the University of Southern California. I received a B.S. in Business Administration and a B.S. in Accounting Information Systems. After graduating this year, I traveled extensively through Europe and the Middle East. I have experience teaching English to children in Madrid; tutoring junior high students in mathematics; assisting my many siblings with standardized test prep; and peer tutoring college students in business courses. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about English, math, public speaking, and standardized test prep. I am a firm proponent of equalizing education opportunities, as education is critical for an improved quality of life. I aim to tailor my tutoring style for each of my students to provide them with a personalized learning experience. During my free time you can find me reading my extensive book list, baking gluten free cupcakes and scrapbooking.

Pamela

Academic Coaching Tutor • +17 Subjects

Fourteen years of teaching in various countries has taught me that learning is a reciprocal process with teachers and students both contributing necessary and invaluable input. I left a financial career to pursue one in education because I sought a more communicative, interactive, and rewarding way to positively impact society. Using my own student experience as a guide, a primary goal of mine is to share my passion for learning and knowledge to help others reach their potential.My career change from finance to education, language, and literature is precisely what distinguishes my background and broadens my knowledge base with which to tutor. My undergraduate major in Accounting provided a technical base largely focused on logic, problem-solving, and factual concepts. Complementing this quantitative foundation with a graduate liberal arts degree in English also relied on logic, but qualitatively enhanced my ability to synthesize and express information with more insight and clarity.Therefore, my two academic areas converge into a holistic view of education which I consider integral to my language teaching ability. Language supports other subjects in any number of ways: visually by words or image, aurally, or kinesthetically in our efforts to comprehend or communicate information. In teaching English language acquisition, reading, writing, and test preparation, I saw that these subjects overlap and correlate rather than exist as isolated categories possessing separate skill-sets. My teaching experience in Asia, North and South America has been enhanced by an exposure to different perspectives on teaching, learning, and socio-cultural dynamics. Encountering learning styles and customs from China, Mexico, the Middle East, and the U.S. encouraged both my communication and teaching styles to become flexible, student-centered, and responsive.Traveling widely during my time abroad also deepened my belief that active, personalized, hands-on examples or experiential learning provide the most beneficial aspects of education. Most subjects overlap within the knowledge acquisition process so a critical thinking approach to any subject will enhance overall learning capacity. I believe that my broad and varied academic, professional, and personal history enables the creative, innovative, and multifaceted approach to learning that our contemporary environment demands for students to succeed in their preparation for the future.

Natasha

Algebra Tutor • +46 Subjects

My name is Natasha, and I'm a graduate student at MIT. I started tutoring from my first year of undergrad because I had such wonderful experiences when I was in high school learning with friends and upperclassmen. I am personally a social learner- I learn best when I'm talking and wrestling with concepts out loud and in a group. When I can express myself coherently, I know I have mastered the material.When I started tutoring, I received a formal job, from my undergraduate university, at the Learning Den at Johns Hopkins University Office of Student Support. I hosted lectures every week in a variety of subjects spanning mathematics, engineering physics, to chemistry and the biological sciences. Here, I encountered a variety of students and different learning styles, and learned how to adapt to each one. Working with students exposed me to various styles - visual, audio, interactive and many more types of teaching. I find that every student has their own way of incorporating the material, and I want to effectively teach in a way that helps you learn in the method most conducive to your understanding.Currently, I enjoy working with physical and mathematically oriented subjects. Mathematics, coding, physics, chemistry, and biology are my favorite topics to teach since there are numerous ways to arrive at an answer, and I love the creativity permitted in problem-solving.

Andrew

AP Psychology Tutor • +22 Subjects

Those who don't know history are doomed to repeat it.The above statement may be a cliche; however, cliches have a nasty habit of turning out to be true. I firmly believe I have a duty to my students to help them succeed, both academically and in life, and I believe the best method by which I can accomplish this is to impart some of my knowledge of history, psychology, and philosophy. On one hand, I recognize the importance standardized testing plays in the future of my students, and the importance of their success within that framework. As such, one of my first goals will always be to help students achieve as close to a perfect score as is possible for them. I believe it is here however that my methodology diverges from the norm; because of my multifaceted background in the humanities, I've come to recognize history, culture, and language as ineffably entwined. I want to teach my students more than just dry facts and abstract dates; I want them to understand it in context and as a story.Whether it's history or statistics, understanding information in context is important to scoring well on tests as well as how it relates to daily life. A thorough understanding of a topic can only be attained this way, and thus I believe my two goals compliment one another perfectly in this regard. Albert Einstein once said one doesn't fully understand a topic until one can explain it to a six year old; I'd like to help your kids attain this level of understanding. It's only once a topic becomes something that can be discussed critically by a student in context that true understanding can be said to have been achieved.
