A Little Bit About Me...

I am a senior at the Boston Conservatory studying Music (voice performance). Spanish is my first language but I have studied English since the age of 4. I love learning new things everyday and believe the key to learning is being curious and asking questions. We are all different types of learners and if we can identify how we learn best we can enjoy learning!! I enjoy tutoring but what I love most is teaching how to enjoy the learning process.

Compassionate Tutor with Legal Experience and Much More!

I am a graduate of Harvard Law School, where I received my Juris Doctorate. I have a diverse set of personal and professional experiences that make me a compassionate yet firm teacher. I have taught French to children and Legislation to law students at Northeastern University School of Law. Practicing as a corporate lawyer, family counselor and non-profit/in-house lawyer gives me a broad platform from which to tutor. Plus, I am more than a lawyer, I have a passion for all things food, and have recently rekindled my love for the stage as an actor. I am most proud of being a mother to a mostly well-adjusted fifteen-year-old daughter. We live in Somerville with three adopted animals, two cats and one dog.

My comments on tutoring Reading : I am certified in the Orton-Gillingham method of reading instruction, and am pursuing a certificate of advanced graduate study in reading.

I am a patient, easy-going man with high standards and expectations for my students.
I have been a special needs teacher (k-8 moderate disabilities) for seven years, and an Orton-Gillingham instructor for eight years. Prior to my certifications I worked as a volunteer in Boston, Weymouth, and Quincy schools. I earned a Bachelor's in Literature and history in 1993, and am confident about my ability to work with all types of students in all areas of academics. I am a teacher in a substantially separate classroom for children with emotional disabilities. I also work with autistic children each summer in a social skills program. I have co-taught in the general education classroom over the years, and consider myself experienced and well-schooled in all facets of special and general education. I have also tutored children with reading disabilities over the years with great success (no m ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have over 15 years experience in a writing, editing, and reporting capacity covering news and publishing industries, and higher education. I also have formal training and education on how to edit, write and give formal, positive feedback for improving manuscripts and texts. My work has appeared in numerous publications and periodicals. I have written and edited internal medical and high-tech documentation, sports articles, literary criticism, children's books, and fiction, among others. I also have served as a lecturer for undergraduate and high school creative writing and composition courses for four years.
I try to empower students to learn how to improve their writing. I start by showing what works well, the strengths of the piece itself. I then show them what can be improved in the work with further revision. I often will use examples of first drafts of famous and acclaimed ... read more

I believe in identifying where a student lies on the subject he/she is studying before going further. The advantage of one on one tutoring compared to classroom is that the lesson can be based around where the student’s strengths and weaknesses are rather than a blanket method. I also believe that the skills used in English can be best practiced and analyzed through writing rather than worksheets and tests. Therefore, I believe in having the student write on a variety of subjects and working through these pieces to show where they can improve.
I graduated from Fitchburg State University in 2009 with a Bachelor’s of Science in English and Professional Writing. I went on to become a staff writer for the Lowell Sun, a daily print publication in Lowell, Massachusetts. When I was laid off due to budget cuts, I wrote freelance for several entertainment and political publications. I a ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have taught reading during a four year period, both junior high and high school levels. Most of this was classroom rather than individual instruction. The training I received during my graduate studies for my Masters degree consisted of analysis of the English language in terms of reading skills as well as methods for teaching such to individuals or small groups.
