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

More About This Tutor...

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

Math,Test Prep (SAT,GRE,ACT,SSAT)-Expert Tutoring at one go

I believe that solving a problem shouldn’t be the only goal but understanding the concept behind that is very important. If the basics of any student is well built up then he can grasp anything easily and would always have the courage to face and solve even the toughest of the problems. So making the student realize that what he is facing isn't a problem but a challenge makes the problem look much easier and changes the entire perspective of that student towards that subject.
I have been tutoring school students since the past five years and possess outstanding knowledge and skill of providing customized tutoring to the students as per their needs. I worked as a SAT,ACT & GRE math tutor at Marconi’s Institute,India and have tutored students who achieved great results in the math/quantitative part of the tests. I have got an experience of tutoring Math school (K-12th) students of mo ... read more

As an educator, I have 10 years experience in public education for grades k-12. While my main focus has been in the field of Special Education as a Teacher's Assistant, I am now certified to teach English Language Arts in Massachusetts. I am pursuing my Master's Degree in Education, so that I may obtain a Reading Specialist license. I have tutored students in math, social studies, english language arts, and reading.
Because I've worked with students who have various learning differences, I have a vast array of teaching strategies. What works for one child doesn't always work for another. I encourage auditory learners to always read the instructions back to me. It helps if they can explain the material as if they were teaching the subject. Visual learns tend to respond to charts, graphs, note-taking, powerpoint- anything containing shapes and color. Tactile learners have sensory nee ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have enjoyed caring for & teaching children no matter what the individual need may be since I was 14.I have an enthusiasm for learning, but believe in gettting to know what each child finds interesting to reach him/her in order to spark the interest of learning & instill confidence, even if the thought was that the subject was 'yucky' or 'I cannot do it.'I believe all children are capable, given the opportunity, understanding & time.I think success stems from listening to the child, being able to translate that communication no matter what form into an educaitonal tool and then make it fun in a creative way.I think that a motivated child learns more quickly & retains a greater amount of information about the subject.
I have been volunteer teaching, tutoring neighbors and friends since high school including religious education.I am a Babson College Grad with 2 bachelors degrees & ... read more

After graduating from Haverford College with a double major in physics and astronomy, I worked for three years as an astrophysics researcher at NASA and Harvard University. In 2000, I became a teacher and a tutor. Since that time, I have taught children of all ages and adults in a wide variety of subjects. From 2002-2003, I designed and taught my own courses in physics and Calculus at the Academy at Charlemont. From 2004-2006, I completed a two year graduate program in physics education at the University of California, Berkeley.

More About This Tutor...

With a Master of Education in Special Needs I acquired the skills and knowledge necessary to adapt instructional practices for diverse learners. Working in partnership with the child, parent(s), and school districts I developed meaningful learning activities addressing the specific academic needs of the child. I have tutored children and young adults whose abilities ranged from special needs to advanced placement. I have taught mathematics, writing, reading, social studies and science throughout elementary, middle school and high school.
Talking with students and analyzing their work samples determines their needs. I ask students to complete a "multiple intelligence" survey to determine their learning strengths. In designing delivery of services I incorporate specific strategies to complement their learning styles. For example, a visual/spatial learner would benefit from drawing pi ... read more
