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.

I have a lot to offer, having lived many lives in one lifetime. I am a quintessential American-born woman with good Russian language skills. I am hands on, and patient. My computer skills are very good. Successful myself, I know how to nurture that aspect in others. Understanding that all of us learn best in one way or another, I am adaptable. I can teach by modeling or discovery; importantly I find using the context of a larger world very useful in coaxing the desire to learn anything, and learn it well, invaluable.
I have owned a publishing company for several years and my English language skills, writing and editing, are top-notch, functioning as publisher and editor-in-chief. My experience in business further defines me as a woman with both academic knowledge and practical market expertise. I have good Russian language skills and understand well its grammar.

As a senior at Bowdoin college, I have developed strong writing skills in both the sciences and the humanities; I am double major in both Anthropology and Gender and Women's Studies, with a minor in chemistry. Along with the extensive writing that I have done, I have also gained a tremendous amount of experience through the writing center at my college, where I help students one-on-one at every stage of the writing process. I have also helped students strategize ways to approach writing prompts, such as those found on an MCAT, secondary school, internship, or job application. As I am fluent in both Spanish and English, I have also assisted ESL students and adults with reading and writing skills.
When I was 10 years old, I started helping my grandmother—who is originally from Peru—with her English. As I knew and understood her native language very well, I relied on my ability to tr ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I love to encourage and reward students for their efforts. I want what I teach to be fun and become something they want to learn rather than some thing they have to do. I will put together a plan that will entail all the required learning objectives while including ways to relate what we are studying to every day life situations. My style is to let the student have the freedom to expand their own imagination, I want my students to feel what they read and understand the content in a way they can speak open about the story or subject. I am a good public speaker and have been very successful in motivating people. I know I can make a great difference in a students life and I want to make a difference in our future leaders.
I hold a degree in Business as I have been in this field for over 30 years. I have been an engineering assistant for ten years and worked in sales and marketing. Up ... read more

I recently graduated from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst with two bachelor's degrees. One degree is in Spanish and I consider myself completely fluent, especially having spent a semester in Costa Rica. During this time I volunteered at a school teaching students ages 5 through 18 English at different levels. My other degree is in Social Thought and Political Economy which required a lot of writing, generally 15 to 25 page papers per class. It is a major dedicated to social change and I learned subjects in all areas including History, Current Affairs, Politics and Political Science.
I have been a gymnastics instructor for about eight years which has helped in shaping my teaching style. I love to push children in a supportive manner so that they can believe in themselves and truly get the most of their education. On top of teaching for the semester in Costa Rica, I also wor ... read more

More About This Tutor...

It has been my experience that most students appreciate an opportunity to sit quietly and think carefully over a problem. Time for a short burst of creative and intense scrutiny is a rare luxury for most of my highly-stimulated students. My philosophy is that learning is a student's job and they should give that job the attention it deserves. I encourage my students to explore while learning but believe in providing a structure and models in which to do so. I am firm in my expectations of my students and insist that they work just as hard as I do myself.
With over 18 years of experience in Education I am capable of teaching to a variety of students and learning styles. My particular areas of expertise are composition, grammar, English literature (Shakespeare specialization), Latin, and American history. I am a working editor and writer and believe that the ability to communicate c ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Working with children has always been my passion. I feel as though it is important to engage all different types of learners and to make them feel as if the classroom is a place where everyone is safe and included. I have worked extensively in the past with children that have Autism. I believe that all children, despite any disability, are capable of being successful students as long as they are given the right tools and the support that is necessary.
Coming from a family of teachers, the importance of education has always been stressed to me. The emphasis was placed not only on succeeding academically, but also to gain a true understanding of the subject matter. I hold an Associates of Applied Science in Community Service and Leadership and graduated Magna Cum Laude. I also hold a Bachelors of Science in Family Studies with a concentration on early childhood education and graduate ... read more

I have gained valuable experience in the classroom while studying Leadership: the importance of effective communication, listening skills, and persuasion. I am a calm and caring person, and am patient and creative while teaching. My students feel comfortable with me and I am able to bring out the best in them because of their comfort level.
As a Magna Cum Laude graduate of Northeastern University, I have gained experience in persuasive writing, research papers and presentations. I have tutored on a volunteer basis for English as a Second Language.

A Little Bit About Me...

The temptation as instructor is to simply restructure the way in which a student learns in order to fit your view, and those I have helped encourage such behavior. Guidance, suggestions, and allusions as to how a student can improve and understand is a better alternative. Simply doing the work for the student has little value in regards to education. A fine balance must be struck between open ended comments of little use and high jacking creativity through re-working large portions of work. My policy is to make the student aware of their shortcomings, explain my reasoning, and use enigmatic reserve in telling them how to correct errors. Unless the mistake is simple, I hold back on literally telling them what to do. .
As an undergraduate, my focus for studies in English were both Critical Literary Analysis and Creative Writing. Analytical writing was stressed heavily, giving me ... read more

Lived in Budapest, Hungary for a year and a half. Was a student teacher and tutor in college. Taught a variety of courses in the US Army Reserves. Have traveled extensively in Western, Central and Eastern Europe. Great people skills (prepared over 200 tax returns this past tax season).
It depends on the wants and needs of the student. One size does not fit all. It is important to understand the goals of the individual along with the desired outcome and timeframe. Finding the best approach that works for the individual or group results in better outcomes.

A Little Bit About Me...

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 I adapt my style to suit the specific needs of each student.
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 ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I was a student tutor during college. Approached by a classmate in my AC101 class, I helped her pass the course. During that time I discovered that I truly enjoyed helping, I picked up other students in Accounting and Math.
My teaching style is supportive and mentor like. I have the ability and patience to explain a process or procedure many times over. I help my students "get it" by having them do it instead of me doing it for them.
