My teaching philosophy centers around creating a supportive and engaging learning environment where students can thrive and develop their skills. I am passionate about helping students not only understand the material but also foster a love for learning.

Currently, I am a certified teacher continually seeking to enhance my students' academic success and confidence in their abilities.

Hello!I have over a decade of experience tutoring, teaching, and mentoring children of all ages.

I have a passion for children to thrive, and my hope is that your student may learn skills that will help him/ her to excel at school.
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.
Hi! I'm Julie, a creative and quirky teacher who loves to read and write and empower students to feel the same way... or at least feel confident in their abilities to do those things! Let me help you with powerful test-taking strategies so that you can approach your test ready to do your best. I love helping students find their unique voice as writers, whether it's in the form of a college essay or an assignment for class. You never know what you can discover about yourself once you sit down to put pen to paper... or fingers to a keyboard!
I am a graduate of The College of the Holy Cross where I double majored in English and Music. I am also a graduate of Tufts University where I earned a Master's of Arts in Ethnomusicology. Recently, I became certified to teach English through the Connecticut State Department of Education. As early as college I began tutoring. I have tutored in Math, Music, English as a Second Language, Reading, and Writing. I have tutored while living on both coasts as well as while living in South America. I love working one-on-one with students, meeting the challenges of discovering what strategies work best with each student. I regularly use Howard Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences as a touchstone for the work I do with students, incorporating visual, musical, and kinesthetic strategies into my teaching. I love watching my students learn, develop, and grow both as students and as individuals. My goal is to build the confidence and skills each student needs to become a successful independent and lifelong learner. To continue my own learning, I am an avid reader and an extensive traveler; my most recent trips include Italy and South Africa. I enjoy spending time with my family, gardening, painting, music, and soccer.
I am currently completing post-baccalaureate pre-medical program at Columbia University. Prior to my academic career at Columbia, I was a student-athlete at College of the Holy Cross, where I majored in International Relations. I am passionate about teaching because I love learning. I enjoy helping my students grow and helping them become eager to learn.
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.
My name is Charlie and have been privately tutoring students for the last 6 years. I enjoy 1 on 1 interactions as it provides a chance for better learning with custom tailored lessons. Learning should be enjoyable and easy and it's my goal to make it that way for you.
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 of the College of the Holy Cross where I received a Bachelors of Art in French. I studied abroad in Strasbourg, France during my junior year, where I initially began tutoring private clients of all ages in English. I returned to France after graduating, to participate in the English Teaching Assistant Program in Bordeaux, where I worked in two elementary schools by helping to facilitate lessons, read stories to students, and work with small groups of students to complete English assignments. It was in Bordeaux that I realized my passion for helping students succeed and went on to serve two years in a 6th grade math class as an AmeriCorps Member through a Teaching Fellowship upon returning to the United States. I continue to serve students by working for an education nonprofit that focuses on increasing students??? grades, attendance, and good behaviors. I do this work because I believe that all students deserve a quality education and that educators can and should do better at providing individualized support to students. In my free time, I also enjoy baking, hiking with my dog, taking on fitness challenges, and crafting.
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.
