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

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...

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. I gathered extensive experience student teaching at urban schools in the Bay Area and participated in two research groups. For my Master's thesis, I developed a curriculum to teach modern physics at the high school level using computer technology and hands-on, inquiry-based laboratory activities. Since the fall of 2006, I have been working in public schools in Bo ... read more

I enjoy seeing the "A ha" moment that students get when a concept becomes clear to them. I am not a big fan of memorization and have encouraged students to not only understand the concepts, but to also link the concepts together into a big picture understanding. Also, I believe that with hard work everyone can achieve their goals and that everyone has their own pace and capacity for learning. The trick is to motivate them into thinking that they could always do more, which they usually can.
I am currently a graduate student in Medical Sciences at Boston University. I have taken many biology and chemistry courses during my studies, and I feel comfortable tutoring: molecular biology, cell biology, biochemistry, general/organic chemistry, and general biology. In addition, I have also taken the entire lower division math sequence for engineers, so I am able to teach elementary math up ... read more

As an undergraduate I had the privilege of experiencing an elite liberal arts education. I obtained a double degree in geology and physics, through which I learned mathematical and problem solving techniques and also gained substantial scientific research and writing skills. I worked as a teaching assistant in both departments aiding in laboratory exercises, offering weekly homework help sessions and grading assignments. More recently, over the last 4 months, I have been working with my fourteen-year-old sister on algebra and this work has culminated in a substantial increase in her Independent School Entrance Examination scores.
My core teaching belief is that anyone is capable of learning any subject. For advanced topics, it is necessary for students to master the fundamentals first and this is the primary job for most teachers. Frankly, mastering the fundamentals can be bor ... read more

If a child, an adult or a teenager doesn't like you, it will be difficult (impossible?) to have him (her) learn from you. Unless you are very strong and I am "nice": I don't like to be rude. So I would need to be appreciated in order to teach. That is why I focus when available on student that chose literature or that want to learn, not the one the parents force to learn. Then I am trying to make what sounds reluctant easy, attractive...
I worked also with Après la classe (“after classroom”) – 16, rue Commines BP 3003 75121 Paris Cedex 3 – as a tutor from November 1999 to January 2000 and had three pupils: a little girl of 6 years old; we did a lot of reading, a teenager of 13 years old (her sister); we repeated her History and a student of 20 years old that was studying to be a midwife and had bad marks in French literature: I tried to make her love to read but I think that today, ... read more
