Patient and Supportive, but always Persistent

I am patient and supportive, but persistent. Each student's mind works differently, and I work tirelessly to find the best way to present material to every child or adult. I have a varied background, not just in the academic world, and I feel I can find the right way to relate to each individual. I try to be somewhat informal, but I recognize the times when a little extra emphasis on the need to really concentrate is necessary.
I have logged over 5,000 hours of tutoring in the last four years. I have worked for a game company, which taught me how to approach tests as a contest between student and test-maker, and my extensive background as a writer gives me practical experience when it comes to teaching English and related subjects. My competence in math has always been obvious, as my 796 score (maximum 800) on the math SAT will attest. But most important: I love to teach any child ... read more

I hear over and over again that "I'm not a good test-taker" from students but strong test-takers are not born that way! Instead, they develop good test-taking skills and habits over time. You, too, can study and master the test-taking skills to excel on any test. I'd like to enhance your testing attitude and share with you test-taking strategies, tips, hints, and right approaches that will have you saying, "I'm a good test-taker!" And remember that you could master anything you want to master, if you wanted it bad enough and you're willing to work for it!
I'm a professional tutor with more than 4 years of experience. I offer one-on-one and group tutoring in English and Math, standardized tests - ASVAB, TOEFL, IELTS, and more! I have Masters of Laws degree, MA in Translation and Interpretation and M.S. in Medical Sciences Program. I'm a patient, reliable and supportive teache ... read more

Tutoring for: Writing, Reading, PSAT/SAT, ACT, GRE

I have worked at the Salem State University writing center for the last two years. At the writing center, I work with students on papers in all subjects, from math to English. My experience at the center has helped me develop methods for helping students plan and organize papers, and also for addressing grammar and style issues. I also have a lot of experience working with ESL students.
I consider myself a very laid back person and am flexible in terms of addressing the student's concerns. I primarily work in subjects related to writing. My training is in philosophy, so I tend to focus on helping students develop strong reasoning/arguing skills and a precise voice. I find that these skills, which are heavily emphasized in philosophical writing, carry over well into all forms of academic writing.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that all children in this country have a right to a world class education. I also believe that education is a partnership between the teachers, parents and students but, understand that due to economic and social conditions not all parents are as active in their child education. I have tutored children in Reading and Math and I have often been told that I try to make learning as easy as possible by relating the topics being taught to topics that the students encounter in there every day lives
I have been working with children as a baseball coach and softball umpire for over 25 years and often parents have told me that I must be a teacher as I worked so well with children. Five years ago I decided to change careers from management and go into education. I went back to school and completed a masters program in elementary education with a 3.8 G.P.A. I am certified to teach i ... read more

More About This Tutor...

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 translate in order to help her. As this process worked quite well, I have continued to use it with all of my tutoring positions. Although I am not always working with a native Spanish speaker, I try to tailor my teaching style towards the individual learner; I firmly believe that all students learn differently, and that no one way is better than another. As a tutor I strive to be an attentive listener; respectful and never condescending; and actively engage with students.
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 exten ... read more

I have found that I have a passion for teaching children of all ages. For that reason, I am pursuing a career in teaching. I have taken the Communications and Literacy MTEL and will be taking the Elementary Math MTEL on May 9th of this year. I find the best way to help a student is to find out what they are passionate about. I find out about their likes and dislikes both in school and in life and try to gain their trust so they are more likely to be interested in getting tutored by me. I mix in some praise with some constructive criticism.
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 sc ... read more

I am always open to learning new styles, and often take part in researching new practices. Most of my teaching, however, is based on the direct teaching model. I like to start each class with an anticipatory set, challenging students to use their critical thinking skills. Then the skill set or information set is modeled by me, practiced with guidance by the students, and finally, the students are given an independent practice exercise. Each lesson is built upon the successful incorporation of the prior skill set taught.
During the last ten years, I have taught students in the areas of study skills, test preparation, US history, language arts and ESL/ELL students learning English. I have written curriculum and supervised special education teachers working with dyslexic students. I earned my first master's degree in education, and am part way through my post-master's degree in sp ... read more
