...about the material itself. But I enjoyed it even more when I heard about all the success other students were having as a result of my teaching. I was recruited to Brown University for rowing and am officially undeclared but plan on graduating with a dual degree in biology and German studies. My favorite subjects to tutor are the ones I'm most passionate about; namely biology, German, and math (algebra and trig). Outside of all...

...I see myself as a qualified, knowledgeable tutor, I think it's just as important for me to motivate, lead, inspire, and mentor my students. Do you have test anxiety? Math anxiety, specifically? Is it difficult for you to create, organize, and execute a study plan? Or do you simply want straightforward, content-based prep and study help? In either case, I'm excited to help you achieve your academic and standardized test goals. My academic credentials consist...

As an instructor, I believe that mastery is best served when students can find their stride. A tutor, or any instructor for that matter, should not only clarify difficult concepts, but help encourage an interest in the subject studied overall. Finding the best way to develop that interest begins with determining how best to grapple with difficulties. In so doing, I hope to spur students to a larger, surer understanding of the subjects they study.

I am deeply passionate about the field of education. I look forward to tutoring and helping individuals who are dedicated to their future. I am happy to offer advice about college applications and career counseling as well. I can't wait to meet you!

...well to. I make it a point to ensure that students understand the conceptual jump from material they are comfortable with to the material they are currently learning. This makes it possible for them to both understand the material on a deeper as well as have a better idea of the direction they are going. I also subscribe to the theory that a relaxed environment is critical for a students learning, so I prioritize creating...

...ACT - I taught every section of the test, and by the time I left ScorePlus I knew the ACT backward and forward. I enjoyed helping students grasp the content, but the most fun part of tutoring was finding tips and creative approaches to the test that fit the individual student I was working with. I loved watching students gradually discover that they could succeed at the material we were covering. As people gained confidence,...

...in the fall to pursue my Master of Science in Journalism. Outside of tutoring and school, I enjoy listening to NPR (#careergoals), reading (anything and everything!), and traveling.

Before the Caribbean, I spent three weeks in London as part of a short study abroad...

...then providing more informal one-on-one help to fellow students at MIT. I've also worked extensively teaching swim lessons for the past five years, particularly to beginners. Both in and out of the pool, I believe that a good lesson is one where the student is doing the thinking. I teach interactively, asking questions, listening to students. explanations, and probing students to produce the correct answer for themselves. I want to model thinking and questioning strategies...

...those around me and have done so in both formal and informal settings. I've been a tutor for both Math and Spanish programs in high school and enjoyed the strides I made with students.

I enjoy teaching mathematics most due to the joy I can see in children once they...

I believe that, with persistence and grit, students can develop an extremely solid foundation of learning that can aid them in tests and everyday life. I definitely stress practice problems and problem solving in my approach, however I am open and flexible to feedback and adjustment. As a tutor, I hope...

...are, but after we have figured it out together they will have gained an important tool in becoming independent learners because they will know the best way for them to receive information and thus will be able to educate themselves more easily. My mother is a high school Spanish teacher and thus has imparted the vast importance of education onto me throughout my life. Education opens so many doors that would have been closed otherwise...

My approach is calm and patient, but engaging.
