Learning can be challenging! I can help! I specialize in psychology, statistics, business stats, and the Microsoft office suit. For me tutoring is about more than just getting a specific outcome for a student. I want to help students grow as individual and build learning skills that they can apply in their own lives. I have a BA in Psychology and MS in Industrial and Organizational Psychology.

Hello and nice to meet you! My name is Ms. DelGreco and I'm excited to *potentially* be your tutor! Here is a little bit about me... First and foremost, the most important thing that needs to happen in order for students to be successful is that they need to feel safe, seen, heard, and understood by their teachers and other adults in their lives. Your tutor should be no different and should make you feel just as comfortable as your favorite teacher does. My favorite subjects in school were English/ELA, History, and ART! I love a good story, so naturally I was drawn to ELA and History. My mom is an artist and got my brother and I into art when we were very young. When I got to college I learned there was such a thing as "Art History"! I absolutely loved it and ended up getting my Bachelor's in History with a concentration in Art History. Speaking of school, I think I can be considered a professional student at this point. Why? Because I have three degrees; yes, three! I love to learn new things! I have a CAGs (Certificate of Advanced Graduate Study) in Educational Leadership, a Master's in Teaching Secondary Education - History, and a Bachelor's degree in History/Art History. When I'm not being a professional student, I am being a professional teacher. I have been teaching for the last 12 years in an urban school district north of Boston, MA. In my first few years of teaching, I was a Math and Science teacher at an alternative high school and eventually became the Center Director of that school. For the last 10 years, I have been a middle school Social Studies teacher. I have taught Ancient Civilizations, Geography, and Civics. I have also tutored and taught credit-recovery History classes to high school students. Those classes were: History of the United States I and II and World History I and II. History can be a very dry and boring subject, so I do my best to make the lessons, work, and assessments project based, student focused, student led, and dare I say...fun? In my 12 years of teaching I've found that you're more likely to want to learn something new if it's engaging. To give you a better idea about the kind of teacher I am and tutor I will be, here are some quotes from some former students. Prompt: What was your favorite class this year? Responses: "Geography because Ms. DelGreco would always keep calm and do fun stuff with us." "GEOGRAPHY BECAUSE I GOT TO LEARN NEW THINGS" "World geography because it's the best and the thing is if you get Ms. DelGreco she's the nicest" Prompt: Who was your favorite teacher this year? Responses: "Ms. DelGreco she was the most understanding teacher and she made the class easy and fun" "Ms. Delgreco because she is a very outgoing and open minded teacher that understands anything you tell her." "Ms. DelGreco because she always motivated me and helped no matter what." Prompt: What advice would you give to future students about this class? Responses: "As long as you give it 100% for most of the time, and you're honest with Ms. DelGreco, you will have the most FUN class ever. ;) " "She is chill and you can trust her with anything. You have helped me through my ups and downs and I always looked up to you. I know you're my teacher but you're like a mom to me." Thank you for considering me to be your tutor and I hope we get to work together soon! - Ms. DelGreco

I think language learning is important. When learning another language the most important thing is to be able to communicate your idea, many students are just taught to regurgitate phrases and vocabulary without any use for it. Language is learned through interaction with others. Being able to speak another language means you can communicate. You can explain your idea. Learning simple phrases, which have their uses especially for a tourist, but when using the language it's more important to be able to communicate. It can be a lot of fun, I can teach Spanish students more than asking how to go to the bathroom. Learn about TV, movies, music, food and more all while learning Spanish!I have worked with several ESL students from different backgrounds and ages. Much like Spanish, sitting in class and learning phrases does not teach a lot. Students learn more through using the language and learning through things like TV, movies, tv, etc.I have studied Spanish for well over 8 years, I am currently a Spanish major at Salem State University, and tutored several students in college in the Spanish language, including students whose first language is not english. I have worked with ESL/ELL students in elementary schools as a one on one tutor. I worked as an English teacher teaching English to high school students studying abroad here in America. I received an advanced score on my AAPPL (Assessment of Performance toward Proficiency in Languages) from American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages. In college I have taken classes dedicated to Spanish tutoring and other education classes.I have tutored many students who were studying for their exams as well as students who wanted to improve their language skills. I worked with students of various levels in Spanish, some advanced and some beginner students.I am a very patient tutor and I am willing to explain something several times and will explain in other ways that best suit the student's understanding. My biggest concern when tutoring/teaching is that they understand the content. I have strategies I teach students to understand the more complex topics in language. Learning a language does not have to be boring.It can be a lot of fun and interesting! Sitting around and memorizing and repeating phrases doesn't teach much. I teach through using the language through interaction, music, TV, etc.

I have known my whole life that I wanted to be a teacher and I have enjoyed everyday of my teaching and tutoring. I studied Math at Wellesley College and went on to complete a MAT in Math Education at Boston University. A few years later I completed a Masters Degree in Mathematics because I missed doing Math. And I am about to start a Masters in Data Science to further my own education. I am in my 15th year of teaching high school, For the first 7 years I taught a mix of Math and Computer Science. And now I just teach Computer Science. I have been tutoring since I was in high school myself and enjoy working one on one with students to help them understand and see math in different ways. In my free time I like to travel whenever I can and I have traveled to over 145 countries and wish to someday travel to every country in the world!
