A Little Bit About Me...

As a graduate of one of the premier Universities in the United States I have had an opportunity to learn from the very best higher education has to offer. Over the past several years, I have reinforced my editorial skills as a college and graduate school admissions coach, helping students prepare for standardized tests, write and edit essays for University applications and prepare for interviews. I have experience in teaching English and Sociology as a Teaching Apprentice at the University level, as well as several years of individual tutoring experience.
I love helping students achieve educational goals. I believe that every student has the capacity to learn and the right to be a successful student. Not everyone processes things the same way, I like to use my students' individual learning styles to dictate how I teach. The goal of tutoring is to assist the individual and therefore ... read more

Even though I have been in the financial services field for over 16 years, I have tutored students both in college and after college. I was a volunteer freshman basketball coach at North Cambridge Catholic for 3 years. I was a volunteer tutor every Saturday morning for the Steppingstone Foundation where I mentored middle school and high school students. I currently work for Education, Inc. as a tutor for students who are unable to make it to school for a variety of reasons. I am a volunteer tutor at the Edwards Middle School and the Harvard/Kent Elementary school both located in Charlestown. I have tutored students in English, math, science, history, Spanish, etc.

As a student who has achieved academic excellence at a tri-fecta of prestigious Boston schools, I am committed to promoting the value of education. In 2006, I earned a bachelor's degree in Communications and Hispanic Studies from Boston College, which enabled me to gain a thorough knowledge and understanding of language and communicative arts. I also developed excellent communication and writing skills through writing intensive seminars and public speaking courses, along with essays in many various areas of study. I am currently pursuing a law degree at Northeastern University School of Law and a master's in public health at Tufts University School of Medicine. Completing both degrees in 2009, I continue to develop a wide range of skills. I have tutored elementary and middle school students in reading, mathematics, science, English grammar, writing skills, and study skills.

For the past three years, I have been working as a senior lecturer in freshman composition at Suffolk University. In addition to my teaching experience, I also volunteer regularly with 826Boston, a non-profit tutoring and writing center in Roxbury, MA.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a Boston College graduate of both the undergraduate and masters in accounting program, I feel as though I am extremely proficient in many areas of business, including writing and math skills as well. The math skills are from my first year and a half as a math major at Boston College, and the writing skills come primarily from my English courses and BC's strong requirement for business writing as a necessary qualification to graduate. I have only tutored students for one year as a service learning project, at the Saint Kevin's School in Dorchester, MA (an elementary school) in basic reading, writing and math skills.
I am very interested in seeing kids prosper through the obtainment of knowledge and learning new ideas. I think that it is crucial for students to be taught in accordance to his/her own personal needs, which hopefully while working with the same tutee, I would be a ... read more

For the last 15 years or so, I've worked as a professional writer in the travel industry. I've also published a few newspaper articles. Currently, I am studying for my Master's in Journalism at Harvard University Extension School. My professors there will vouch for my excellent grammar skills. As a writing tutor with 826 Boston, I have helped many students write college application essays that do them proud ... and make them stick out (in a good way!) in a crowd. I can also help you write your essay on Pride and Prejudice, Les Miserable, A Separate Peace, Hiroshima, The Hobbit, The Meaning of Life as You See it ... any subject you need to tackle.
I believe anyone (this means you!) can learn to write well and enjoy it. I can help you conquer writer's block, say what's in your heart and mind, make yourself understood ... and get good grades. It can be hard work, but I'll make it ... read more

My teaching style is unique to each student's indivdual needs. I take time to recognize my students learning style and provide the need materials or teaching style based their needs. I prefer tutoring to working in a classroom because I can give each student the specialized one-on-one time they need to help not only keep them on track with their school's requirements, but also introduce them to better study habits that could help them excel in the classroom when they do return to school.
During my years attending UMass Dartmouth, I recieved my Bachelor's Degree in Sociology with a minor in Business Administration. But I also gained alot of experience working with children. I tutored elementary age students in the star program and college students at my campus job in the Unity House. I also was the coordinator for the New Bedford Speech Academy. This program taught students fro ... read more

My teaching style is more along the lines of the Montessori system. Given the freedom and much direction from the tutor, the student will often "discover" the essence of the lesson. In discovering the essence of the lesson, the student will take ownership. In taking ownership, the student in turn will develop pride, self worth, and a thirst for more knowledge and more successes.
I have a passion for knowledge, and have tutored high school and college students in the area of History, reading, and writing composition. I love teaching, and watching the student progress and excel!

I have worked most of my adult life in education or journalism, and I was able to combine my two passions as a journalism professor at the college level for several years. I am currently a visiting lecturer in media studies at Bridgewater State College and a substitute teacher in local schools. I have taught social studies, business and typing in secondary schools. I also have taught in other venues -- as an exercise instructor for youth, adults and disabled individuals, as a word processing instructor, and as an English as a Second Language instructor to new immigrants through Literacy Volunteers of America. I have used my teaching skills as an editor at several newspapers, coaching new reporters and correspondents.
I have a relaxed teaching style that makes my students feel comfortable and interested in learning. I believe I transfer my passion for my subject to my students. I am ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My education degree in journalism reflects my interest and expertise in a wide variety of subjects. Most importantly, I have the ability to communicate, written or orally, and to prioritize and organize. Also, having worked with troubled teens, I find I am at home with difficult learning situations and a wide variety of students. I am comfortable with English (reading, writing, grammar, speeches), basic math, Spanish, basic sciences, and psychology.
My passion is for empowering young adults; perhaps the mantra is "educate to elevate". I have been told I build trust quickly, especially with difficult-to-reach students. Once trust is established there is a burden to do whatever is best for that student. Deadlines go better with a patient hand; discipline goes better with a sense of humor; details are better appreciated with a larger motivational goal. Failure is an underrated ... read more
