Award-Winning Economics Tutors in Waltham, MA

...medical brigades. I recently returned from a trip to Honduras where my brigade was able to provide healthcare to a rural community in central Honduras. Before applying to college, I went through extensive ACT tutoring and would love to relay those skills to other students. I'm passionate about the social sciences, math, spanish, and all things natural science :) I intend to go to medical school and would eventually love to become a pediatric neurosurgeon...

...LSAT, it's 33% learning the test, 33% sustaining motivation, and 34% evaluation of one's approach/style. As a tutor, I see my job as supporting a student in all three ways, more like a personal trainer than a teacher. I've seen how to improve 10 deciles on standardized test--enough to change your options to the next tier of schools--in 3 months. I spent 3 months and 450 hours studying the LSAT. Some of it was very...

...years before becoming a rowing coach. I love to travel, read, and learn, and I love to share knowledge and learning experiences with others. Economics and English/literature are the two subjects I enjoy studying, and by extension teaching, the most, because they present two entirely different frameworks for understanding the world. I hope that I can pass on my curiosity, open-mindedness, and genuine love of the learning process to my students. In my spare time,...

...One can often find me at Clark Park or Walnut Greens trying to shoot for par or die trying. I have been tutoring for the last one and a half years and I absolutely love it.

I have long enjoyed enjoyed working with others to help them achieve personal goals. Some of the most fulfilling tutoring I have done recently have been tutoring immigrants for the US Citizenship Test, helping formerly incarcerated individuals attain their GEDs, and tutoring children in Honduras on conversational English to obtain high-paying jobs in the tourism industry. I'm thrilled to work with anybody on any subjects of interest, reach out with any questions!

...of my favorite volunteer experiences was tutoring high school students from Dorchester and Roxbury. I taught my students English, Physics, Chemistry, Algebra, Trigonometry, Biology, and helped them with standardized test preparation. My personal tutoring style is to use a combination of relatable metaphors and real life examples to help my students genuinely understand whatever material we are covering. I scored in the 98th percentile on the SAT and the MCAT2015, so I feel confident with...

...My teaching philosophy can be summed in three words: never sit still. I don't see learning as a static process, whereby a student studies for a test, passes it, then lets the information slip away. Rather, I believe the student should be truly hungry to absorb the material, to truly own it, then use that newfound knowledge as the jump-off point for even higher achievement. The student should never sit still in his/her academic achievements;...

...I was a TA for Physics II: Electricity and Magnetism at MIT, and I tutored in math and science in high school. I scored a perfect score on the SAT Math section twice, and have taken 11 AP tests with an average score of 4.7. I believe the best way to learn math is through challenging problems, and gaining confidence in yourself when you find that you understand those problems. I am passionate about learning,...

I graduated with a B.S. and M.S. in Molecular and Cellular Biology from Johns Hopkins University (GPA 4.0). I worked as a peer-learning session leader for Genetics and Physics undergraduate courses. I was also a TA for General Biology. I recently took the MCAT and scored in the 100th percentile. I look forward to using my experience, both on the exam and in teaching, to help you substantially increase your performance and reach your potential.

As a master's student and former medical student, I know how challenging academics can be. I also know how having a helping hand, a guidance through the confusion, can help one gain confidence in themselves to excel. From tutoring children to post-graduates, I have seen that all students (no matter their age, level of education, strengths, weaknesses, etc.) who are willing to learn can succeed. ... In a typical first session, the student and I usually...

...and college students a variety of subjects within philosophy including Bioethics, Ancient Philosophy, Philosophy of Law, Ethical Theory, and Intro to Philosophy. In addition to philosophy, I am comfortable tutoring GRE Verbal and Analytical Writing, writing more generally, bioethics/medical humanities, and psychology. I am passionate about helping my students develop their critical thinking skills and learn how to express their ideas clearly. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, writing poetry, and running.

Hi! I am an engineering student at Northeastern University who loves helping people out with all subjects. Standardized tests are just a game against the clock that we can improve in so many ways. ... I have two philosophies. 1. Practice makes perfect. 2. There's an angle to everything. I think there is always more than one way to approach a problem, and typically the test tries to make you think you need to take the...

...helping students prepare and succeed in academics. I especially enjoy helping students study for standardized tests. A lot of high school is spent prepping for college and with proper instruction anyone can get into the college of their dreams. I believe that I can help students achieve their goals. In addition to standardized test preparation my passions lie in public speaking and management. Beyond academics I love traveling, cooking, reading, and scuba diving!... I believe that...

I think my most effective tutoring skill...

Passionate about leveraging my background in private and corporate practices to instill a love of education within students, facilitate learning, and prepare them for success in their careers.

...many friends and family members in various subjects my entire life. I love science and math, and my particular strengths are biology, calculus, genetics, and algebra, although I enjoy reading and writing as well. My tutoring philosophy is to simplify information into a form that almost anyone can understand. I usually do this by gauging a student's background information on a subject, starting with the basics and working up in complexity, until I can determine...

...I find that learning one-on-one or in small groups can be more effective. I can individualize the lesson plans to the specific needs of my students. And watching those students quickly overcome material that was previously challenging is the greatest satisfaction a teacher can get. In tutoring session I can achieve what I can’t do in a classroom: I can perfectly customize my teaching to the needs of the student. Throughout the process I communicate...

...was a tutor for fpur years at Brigham Young University, and I love helping people learn! I tutor Economics, Math and all the basic sciences. I really enjoy tutoring these subjects because my students and I work together to understand the principles underlying the problems, which helps us remember everything better and makes studying more enjoyable. My tutoring theory is that students either know the answer or know how to find it, and together we...

I am a trained historian, with special expertise in Southern History, African American History, and broader narratives of American History. I also have training in American Literature and English composition. My primary tutoring experience lies in high school history and English. My goal is to help your student engage more deeply with their reading and writing assignments so that their grades improve in the short and long term.

I've always had a great love for reading and writing and hope to pass that love along, while also ensuring that students have a good grasp on reading comprehension, grammar, and writing mechanics. I use a combination of several different techniques to enable students to improve in their reading and writing skills, and try to use resources that are not only helpful but also relate to the students' interests.
