Award-Winning Algebra Tutors serving Brockton, MA

...of science and math Advanced Placement courses, the ACT, the SAT, the general GRE, and the Biology GRE. To me, tutoring is a two-way street. While it is important that I answer questions, I also need to ask them to be effective. I love when students have specific questions about the material they are working on because it means they have an understanding of their strengths and weaknesses. I want to encourage students to always...

My primary focus was on the ACT - I taught every section...

...playing with and examining the English language, whether in preparation for the reading section of a Standardized Test or for a college essay. I believe that students learn best when they are able to uncover the "why," not just the "what," and it is my goal to create an environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and making mistakes. In my free time, I enjoy making pottery, swing dancing, and experimenting in the kitchen.

...value the power of intrinsic motivation in learning—that is, the power of learning for the sake of learning, rather than for external factors like good grades or others’ approval. I believe that when youth and adults alike view school or learning as something to suffer through for a distant goal in the future (a “no pain no gain” mindset), their willpower eventually wears thin in times of stress and hardship. Teaching people to like to...

...I'm Scotty! I am currently a senior at Harvard College pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Sociology with a secondary (minor) in Theater, Dance, and Media.

I am currently an undergraduate student at Wesleyan University and am majoring in molecular biology and biochemistry. At Wesleyan, I've been a member of the Science Outreach program, where we teach scientific concepts to students at local elementary schools. This experience has been extremely rewarding and has made me interested in helping other students as well.

...put their knowledge to real world use. As a tutor, I like to give a strong foundation to orient my student, and then gradually grant them more freedom and independence until they can feel themselves grasp the concept, pointing out pitfalls or common errors along the way; teachers who used these methods on me always left the most lasting impressions. Outside of my studies, I really enjoy listening to music, both old favorites and new...

At the core, I love learning and find it fun. In teaching, I try to convey that sense of fun to my students. I use a variety of techniques depending on my student's learning style, but I always focus on the fun of learning new things.... In a first session with a student, I would introduce the basic concepts and core questions of the subject, and determine my student's learning style in order to plan future...

I am a rising sophomore at Michigan (Go Blue!!). I have loved math since before I could remember and am pursuing a major in Computer Science. When I am not coding/math-ing (is that a word?), I love to hang out with friends, work out, and scoop ice cream at my (other) job!
