As an Industrial Engineer currently completing a Master of Science in Human Factors Engineering, I bring a strong analytical foundation in mathematics, statistics, engineering, and data science. I am passionate about helping people develop the confidence and problem-solving skills necessary for success. Teaching has been a central part of my life since I was 16 years old. I began by coaching young gymnasts, where I learned the importance of patience and adaptability. Since then, I have expanded my teaching experience to include percussion instruction as well as tutoring college-level technical subjects such as linear and matrix algebra, experimental design, and discrete event simulation modeling. I believe that education is most effective when students are actively engaged while learning. By combining my technical background with years of teaching experience, I aim to help students build the skills to succeed independently.

In my experience, I have learned how important it is for help in my studies. Now that I have gained some experience and knowledge, I want to give back by making myself available to help others. I am currently a freshman in college. I can tutor pretty much any math and physics, two subjects that I enjoy a lot.
I am a recent high school graduate who scored into the 1500's on the new digital SAT, and I specialize in helping students succeed on the SAT Math, Reading, and Writing sections. Having taken the new version of the exam myself, I know exactly how it worksand I have developed unique strategies that helped me boost my own score by 60 points. I bring those same techniques to my students, helping them improve quickly and efficiently. With over 200 hours of tutoring experience, I have worked with middle and high school students in a wide range of subjects, including English, math, biology, and even LEGO robotics. I've earned 4s and 5s on: AP Calculus BC, AP Statistics, AP English Language, AP Biology, AP Macroeconomics, AP Microeconomics, AP Psychology, and AP Physics 1. My sessions blend subject mastery with strategic test prep. My approach is personalized, supportive, and results-driven. I focus on identifying each student's strengths and weaknesses, filling in content gaps, and teaching proven test-taking strategies that build confidence and maximize scores. Whether you are just getting started or aiming for a top percentile score, I am here to guide you every step of the way.

Outside of academics, I enjoy exploring literature and languages, which enriches my teaching style and connects me with students on a personal level.
I am a PhD student at Northeastern University getting a degree in population health. I graduated from George Washington University, with a master's in public health and did my undergraduate degree at the University of Richmond. I love to teach and hope to eventually teach at a university and do research.I have always enjoyed helping others learned. When I was little, I used to make my sister play teacher with me (she was always the student, poor thing). Now I enjoy tutoring students of all ages in a variety of subjects. My favorite subject to tutor is math because, unlike English, the rules always stay the same. I also enjoy tutoring for both the ACTs and the SATs. It is great to see a student's scores improve as we work on practice tests and the different skills that they need.In my free time I love to travel. In Oct. of 2014 I left the country for the first time to travel to Zambia, Africa to visit a friend living there. It was an incredible trip. We sat in the devil's pool at Victoria Falls (I recommend looking up a photo). We also went on a safari and had many other great adventures. Since then I have traveled to Italy (also wonderful) and hope to do some more international traveling soon.I also enjoy working with my hands, crocheting, sewing, knitting, and especially cooking. I read when I have the time, and love to listen to audio books in the car.
I am currently a second year Biology undergraduate student at Northeastern University with a diverse foundation in science. For me, the study of medicine piques my curiosity, specifically cardiology and neurology- both of which I hope to pursue in the near future.
I am a graduate of Northeastern University, with a Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry degree. Since graduation, I have worked in the Pharmaceutical industry. I have had the wonderful opportunity to travel both domestically and internationally, which has given me the ability to interact with people from many different walks of life. During High School and College, I tutored my peers in a range of subjects including SAT prep, English, Math, Biology, and Chemistry. I am most passionate about Life Sciences. However, I'm a stickler for proper grammar which is very suitable when it comes to helping students with their SAT prep or English studies. I am a firm proponent of education, knowing that it is vital for an improved quality of life. I try to impart this philosophy to all of my students while still maintaining a fun, positive environment for them to master the subject areas they are developing. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, cooking and practicing yoga.
Over 24 years experience as a licensed Series 63, 66 and 7 investment advisor. I'm also fluent in Spanish. In addition, I have tutored dozens of students from across the country for these exams.
I am currently working towards finishing my medical residency in psychiatry and hope to specialize in child /adolescent psychiatry .I believe a good education is the foundation necessary to excel in our professional life and it is a privilege for me to work with the scholars of tomorrow to help them achieve their goals. Throughout my college career at Northeastern University in Boston I have always found time to get involved with teaching opportunities. I was a tutor at a Health Sciences Academy after school program where I spend time working with 9th and 10th graders on activities such as their homework, science projects, and computer labs. I have also worked with a younger age group as a member of a pre-school Head Start program and engaged the children in activities such as introduction to reading and writing, play-time, and development of social skills. After college, I worked as a teacher at a facility geared towards developing cognitive and functional skills in adults with various mental health issues. I have had the pleasure of working with clients of varying age groups and skills. My experiences have always been rewarding and teaching has remained one of my passions to this day.My philosophy when it comes to teaching revolves around preparedness, patience, and empathy. I believe that there is no subject one cannot learn with enough time and effort. I enjoy teaching various subjects such as Biology, Physiology, and Psychology. Regardless of the subject matter I first analyze the student’s strength and weaknesses and develop my curriculum to best suit the students needs. I believe there is always a way to teach even the most complicated material in a palatable manner. Also, as a future physician, I have well-developed interpersonal skills so I always take into account the feedback and emotional needs of my client. I strive to achieve the most nurturing and productive learning environment and gage my success by my client’s eagerness to learn and master the subject at hand. Lastly, I believe that learning should be fun and successes celebrated so that as the student continues on his journey of academic pursuit he will have a sense of pride and knowledge that no goal is unattainable. I look forward to joining you in this journey and making your academic goals a reality

Tutoring for me is a collaborative effort, following a problem-based learning with questions that will lead the student towards the answer they're looking for while providing a well-rounded understanding of why and how that answer works.
I am a current undergraduate student at Northeastern University working towards a pharmacy degree, while minoring in Biology and Chinese. I first started tutoring in high school through peer tutoring, working with students younger than me and tutoring them in subjects that I had excelled in. Besides helping them in purely academic subjects like Chemistry or Math, I also gave them tips to study better and other organizational skills, which help in daily life as well. I really enjoy working with students and working with them towards their goals, both academically and personally. I believe anyone can succeed as long as they are interested and are willing to put in the time and effort. When I work with students, I try to break down different problems into smaller chunks, and work through these smaller bits to understand the big picture. I know how frustrating it is to not understand something, and I try to work with each student to figure out their strengths and weaknesses. I think the most rewarding thing is when you see the student go "aha!" and understand something they have been struggling with, it really gives both of you a feeling of satisfaction and relief. Outside of school, I like to do ballroom dancing while drinking way too much coffee.
I am a current 8th grade World History teacher, also Massachusetts-certified to teach English (at both a high school and middle school level), Social Studies at a high school level, and ESL.
Mark's teaching journey began while he was getting his bachelor's degree in elementary education and computer science from Boston College. After landing his first job in the Boston public school system, he knew he was in it for the long haul!

The two disciplines may seem very unrelated to you, but it is the combination of the two that makes me a great student and teacher! A few fun facts about my college experience: I actually finished high school in 3 years and began college a year earlier than usual, and I studied abroad in Scotland (University of Glasgow) and the Czech Republic (Film Academy of Prague) during my junior year!My teaching experience include peer tutoring during my college years, working with both individual students and entire classes on college-level physics, math, and Spanish. Just after receiving my BA, I designed and taught my first full course on Climate Change at the 10th grade level. We covered all sorts of material, including the Physics and Chemistry of the atmosphere and ocean, all the way to a Model UN simulation to discuss global policies!I am moving onto a PhD program in Physics at Northeastern University, but I hope to continue to teaching throughout and after the program. I love helping students reach their potential. The pride and joy of watching my students come to an understanding with new concepts, develop a love for new disciplines, and find passion for learning -- it is the most beautiful thing I have experienced. And it's all thanks to you, the amazing, bright, and motivated students!
For an enthusiastic student, there is always another question to prompt a new level of understanding. That is the outlook that gives me enthusiasm as a mentor. I have enjoyed watching smiles catch on each time that enough guidance leads a student to new realizations, and have been fortunate enough to see this happen regularly as first a US Peace Corps educator in Lesotho and then a substitute teacher/aid in the SAU 24 school district of New Hampshire. I received my Bachelor of Science in Mathematics from Northeastern University and therefore focus my tutoring on math. I currently offer tutoring for all middle school levels of math up through pre-calculus. My favorite subject to tutor is pre-calculus, particularly when it combines trigonometry with algebra. When meeting with students, I like to begin with a discussion of their goals and then guide them through a series of practice problems that ultimately covers their challenging areas. As you might have guessed from my opening sentence, I like to respond to their questions with questions whenever appropriate. In my downtime, I like to sing, play guitar, and cook recipes new and old.
As a recent graduate with a Bachelor's in Health Science from Northeastern University, I bring a unique perspective to tutoring, having navigated the complexities of subjects like biology, chemistry, and physics at multiple educational levels. My experience as a paraprofessional educator in a high school Spanish class has equipped me with effective teaching strategies, allowing me to tailor my approach to meet individual student needs. I believe in fostering an interactive learning environment where students actively engage in problem-solving and articulate their understanding, as this helps bridge gaps in knowledge. My passion for teaching stems from my own challenges as a student, and I strive to provide alternative explanations and mnemonic devices that can make difficult concepts more accessible. I am committed to helping students build their confidence and achieve academic success in the sciences.

I attended high school near Gainesville, FL, and moved up to Boston for college in 2011. I received my BA in English from Northeastern University in May of 2014, and graduated summa cum laude with a GPA of 3.91. I am pursuing my MA in English at Northeastern University beginning fall of 2014, with an expected graduation date of May 2016. I've worked with students of all ages, grades, and levels, both informally during my high school years and more formally with 826 Boston. I tutor students in English and all related areas: language arts, essay writing, literature, and phonics, as well as test prep for the SAT Verbal, Critical Reading, and Writing, as well as the ACT English, Reading, and Writing. I have experience working with ESL students of all levels, and am working on my TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) Certification this summer. I love tutoring students in reading and literature; learning how to analyze literary works reveals so much more depth and makes reading such a rewarding experience. I also really enjoy working with ESL students, and attempting to learn several foreign languages on my own has given me a strong sense of respect for anyone attempting to learn to speak English. I make sure my students learn how to do their work themselves, and believe in breaking down different study procedures and subject matter into small, bite-size pieces. Every student has the potential to be a successful reader and a successful writer, and the two skills really go hand-in-hand. When I'm not in classes or working, I love to travel, and I spend a lot of time doing poetry-related activities: I write my own, read the work of my fellow poets, contribute and edit with a friend's independent publishing company, and attend all the readings and open mics I can. I also play terrible acoustic guitar covers, have lots of movie nights, and bake a mean banana nut muffin.
My passion for lifelong learning drives my commitment to tutoring, where I strive to ignite the same enthusiasm in my students. With a Master of Business Administration and a Master of Finance from Northeastern University, I specialize in subjects such as Financial Accounting, Managerial Accounting, and Business Ethics. With two years of tutoring experience, I have developed a strong understanding of how important it is to create a supportive learning environment so students can excel. I have a hands-on approach, using real-world examples to connect theory with practice which enables students to achieve both academic success, and personnel enrichment. Additionally, I have over 20 years of experience as a Director of Finance in the hospitality industry, which enables me to provide practical insights, real-world experiences and relatable examples. I am dedicated to helping students navigate and appreciate the complexities of finance and accounting, fostering their growth and confidence in these critical areas.
Master's-Level Biomedical Expert with 500+ Hours Experience How I Teach & My Approach: After 5 years and 500+ hours of tutoring, I've learned that every student is unique. That's why I don't believe in one-size-fits-all teaching. When we first meet, I'll spend time getting to know you how you learn best, what trips you up, and what your goals are. From there, I build our sessions around YOU. My background (Bachelor's in Biomedical Sciences, Master's in Clinical Research) means I've been in your shoes. I remember struggling with organic chemistry mechanisms and statistical analyses. Now I use those experiences to break down tough concepts in ways that actually make sense. Real talk: I've helped students boost their grades by an average of 35% because I focus on understanding, not memorization. Whether you need to ace an exam, understand a tough chapter, or just want someone who'll make science less scary, I'm here for it!
I have studied Chemical Engineering for the past five years. I have had the opportunity to ensure the quality of silver and gold, plate silicon with conductive metals, and develop test procedures for lithium ion batteries. Somewhere along the way, I discovered that I really enjoy working with other students and sharing what I've learned.I started off tutoring a couple of neighbors in high school. Now I work with classes of up to eight. I prefer the smaller setting so that it doesn't feel like I'm assuming the role of a teacher or a professor. My areas of specialization are broad. I enjoy the sciences, maths, English language, and dabble in history.When I'm not tutoring, you can probably find me studying, traveling, or in the kitchen.
I am a Northwestern University graduate and received my Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering with a concentration in Robotics. I have an extensive background tutoring middle and high school students in Standardized Tests as well as helping incoming freshmen acclimate to the college environment as a Peer Advisor. Due to my concentration in STEM, I am well-adept in teaching Math and Physics, though am open to tutoring outside those subjects. I believe that working on one's education outside of regular school hours shows a strong initiative to learn, and I want to encourage this drive for learning in my students.
