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!

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

I believe in constructive criticism and positive reinforcement, steering students to find their own voice and style. I recommend simplicity in writing and the importance of making arguments in a clear, concise manner. For many students, writing is deeply personal, and I'll always respect their choices while guiding them to improve their presentation.
In addition to working for many years as a writer and editor for newspapers, Harvard Law School, and as a freelancer, I have volunteered as a writing tutor and ESL classroom tutor. I have worked with students on a wide range of skills, from bolstering the English-language ability of students from other countries to helping advanced students craft sophisticated academic analysis and college essays. I enjoy using my editorial skills to help students improve their writing and succeed in school.

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 fun. Perhaps most important I can explain grammar to you in a way that makes sense so it will stick with you. Once you know why, it's much easier to remember what's right. The great thing about writing is that you often end up amazing yourself with your creativity, insight, and ability. I know you can do it!
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 help ... read more

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

More About This Tutor...

Overseeing recent high school graduates’ transformation into college students has been a gratifying experience. I take a hands-on approach using in-depth discussion, analysis, in-class exercises, peer review, and revision. As a teacher my role is both to instruct about accepted concepts and methods for reading and writing and to act as a resource to help students improve their skills. Prompting them with questions and encouraging them to keep refining their work, I witness their realization that what I am asking them to do is not impossible. I give my students the tools they will need to succeed throughout school and beyond.
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. From we ... read more

I have high expectations for all of my students. They know it, and when we're done, they're proud of what they've accomplished. I teach SAT, for example, and expect all of my students to earn at least a 9 out of 12 on the essay portion. I coach each one on employing his or her strengths to produce a good essay. With beginners, I focus on organizing the presentation, clear declarative sentences, and effective use of transitions to keep things moving. Then we progress to varying sentence types and common vocabulary (for example, don't say "very" all the time; use "extremely", "powerfully", "excessively", "dramatically". Same with "nice", "bad", and the perennial favorite "awesome.") Analyzing other students' essays provides a model and some metacognition (without the jargon) for students. Everything is scaffolded, and advanced students can move up the steps rapidly. But every stude ... 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.

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

President of the Accounting and Finance Association. Helped teach students about both while in college. I have an associates degree inmatg/science and a bachelor 's in accounting. I enjoy figuring things out and am fantastic with people.
Patient and focused. I like to help people see behind what they thought that they could accomplish, by being kind and enthusiastic. No question is a dumb question. I was a high school dropout who made a very successful career by overcoming difficulties and I like to pass along my drive and energy.
