Henry
Algebra Tutor • +20 Subjects
I am a rising Junior computer science major, biochemistry minor at Carleton College. I remember how important asking for help was when I was studying for exams and would love to assist students going through the same process. Although I am knowledgeable in many subjects, I am most equipped tutoring in college and high school-level computer science, college and high school-level biology, and SAT prep. During high school, I tutored my classmates in preparation for the SAT, and have two years of experience tutoring college students in computer science courses. I learn best when I understand the practicality and relevance of the material, and hope to instill those concepts in my lessons.

Raissa
Anatomy & Physiology Tutor • +8 Subjects
My first tutoring experience was of small groups of dental and medical first years while I was obtaining my PhD in Physiology at the University of Puerto Rico. Since then I have taught a variety of Science classes (General Biology, Anatomy, Anatomy and Physiology) to larger groups at the college level. As a researcher I have also mentored students (ranging from high school to graduate students) in a laboratory setting where the interactions are one-on-one and structured to each individual. I have learned that these individual interactions are the best to ensure that the student is getting help specifically where (and when) they need it, and for me (the tutor) to identify where the difficulty lies. Also, these individual interactions allow for a more comfortable relationship between mentor and mentee (tutor and student), which in turn allow for a better understanding of the materials. Although I am capable of tutoring different STEM topics, I am a biologist at heart.I am a mother of 3 young kids and understand the hardships of remote learning. My background is multicultural, which makes me fluent in Spanish, English and French.

Ben
10th Grade Reading Tutor • +72 Subjects
I am currently in my junior year at Union College. I will graduate with a B.S. in Biology in June of 2016, and plan to go to medical school after. My tutoring experience is quite varied. Back in high school I was the TA for a computer science course and a volunteer tutor in chemistry and biology. More recently, I have done more informal tutoring, such as helping friends at college with biochemistry and MCAT preparation, and helping my younger sister with note taking skills, AP US History, and ACT prep. I tutor a wide range of subjects, from computer science to history and biochemistry to critical reading. My favorite subjects to tutor though, are standardized test prep and biochemistry. Though enjoying standardized tests is not a common opinion, I have always liked the logical nature of standardized test questions, and the fact that simply by working on a few test taking skills students can see marked improvement. Biochemistry, while far from a simple field, is one of my favorite subjects. I find the chemical basis for how biological mechanisms work to be fascinating. Biomedical research is also a passion of mine; I have worked in a handful of labs since high school, from a critical care surgical lab studying treatments for Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome to a study on managing diabetes. In my free time, I enjoy reading (especially nonfiction scientific or political books), playing tennis, listening to and playing music (I play piano), and the occasional Netflix marathon. I believe that no matter the subject, every student has the potential for success.

Larry
English Tutor • +10 Subjects
I have the Master of Arts degree from Pepperdine University. From my under- graduate college days on, I have taught ages from older elementary through older adults in one-on-one, class room, camp, auditorium and church settings. These presentations have also taken place during hosting a 21-day Israel, Jordan, Egypt and Greek Isles Tour and 7-day tour to Brazil. In addition to Brazil I instructed through a translator for 1 month of college in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, and on various occasions in Mexico and the Navajo Reservation in the SW U.S.A.In summary, I have served in leadership roles with various non-profit boards where skills were developed in interpersonal communications. I have conducted well over 50 special event activities in 11 states and 4 foreign countries, with over 2500 participants, as well as consulting on many topics for churches and businesses.With my education, ministerial, college instructing, non-profit and life experiences, I am looking forward to those who would be interested in any of a broad range of subjects, including but not limited to those I am most excited about: History, Social Studies, Ethics, World Religions, Religion, and Theology.Believing it to be absolutely necessary for an improved quality of life, I am a proponent of not only education but of continuing education. Some of my continuing education included: Marriage Preparation and Enrichment certification, Managing Conflict seminars and workshops, special faculty training from University of Phoenix and many other professional, specialty training workshops. I trust this enthusiasm and appreciation will be imparted to all of my students.In my spare time, I enjoy family time, reading, an active church participation and some sports, all which enriches my life!

Elsbeth
Biology Tutor • +6 Subjects
I recently graduated from Indiana University (IU) with a Bachelor of Science in Molecular Life Sciences with a concentration in Molecular and Cellular Biology and a Bachelor of Arts in Gender Studies. While I was at IU, I was a teacher's assistant (TA) for Molecular Biology. While this can be a difficult subject, I loved being able to explain the intricacies of it to students during office hours. I was also a member of Alpha Chi Sigma, a professional chemistry fraternity, for three years; we provided free Chemistry tutoring once a week and helped students with test prep. My favorite job I've ever had was as at an IU summer program for freshmen, where I was a TA for a class about feminist and psychoanalytic film analysis of horror movies. I absolutely loved working with my students and introducing them to the new, weird world of horror movie analysis. Currently, I tutor for Biology, History, English, and Social Studies. I'm very excited about this opportunity to be a tutor because I know what it's like to struggle in a class, and I wish I would have reached out to a tutor myself. It's so important for students to have the resources they need to succeed in and even enjoy their education. My hope is that through tutoring, I can show students another way of looking at the subject. In my spare time, I've been devouring audiobooks and podcasts about history, race, gender, and colonialism while I play Pokemon on my Switch.

Frequently Asked Questions
11th Grade Spanish students typically struggle with subjunctive mood conjugation across different tenses, maintaining conversational fluency under pressure, and distinguishing between ser/estar and por/para in context. Many also find it difficult to move beyond memorized vocabulary to understand nuanced word choices, idiomatic expressions, and cultural references that appear in authentic texts. Additionally, students often mix present and past tense usage when narrating events, and struggle with the preterite vs. imperfect distinction—a critical concept for storytelling and historical writing.
In a typical classroom, students get limited speaking time—often just a few minutes per class period. With personalized 1-on-1 instruction, you get sustained conversation practice where a tutor can correct pronunciation and grammar in real-time, ask follow-up questions to push your thinking, and adapt topics to your interests and proficiency level. Tutors can also simulate real-world scenarios like ordering food, job interviews, or casual social conversations, helping you build confidence and muscle memory for actual communication rather than just test-taking.
The subjunctive mood doesn't exist in English, so 11th graders have no native language reference point—they must learn it as an entirely new concept. Beyond memorizing conjugations, students need to understand when to use subjunctive (after expressions of doubt, emotion, desire, or in conditional clauses) versus indicative, which requires deep comprehension of Spanish sentence structure. A tutor can break this down systematically, starting with high-frequency triggers like "espero que," "es importante que," and "aunque," then build to more complex uses in literature and formal writing where subjunctive appears frequently.
Passive vocabulary lists rarely stick; 11th graders need active retrieval practice where they use new words in context repeatedly. Effective tutors use spaced repetition combined with thematic grouping—learning vocabulary around specific topics (travel, business, emotions, literature) rather than random lists—and then immediately apply those words in speaking and writing exercises. Connecting new vocabulary to cognates, word families, and cultural context (like regional variations in Spanish-speaking countries) also helps words stick longer than isolated memorization.
This is one of the most conceptually challenging aspects of 11th Grade Spanish because it requires understanding narrative perspective—preterite describes completed, specific actions ("Ayer fui al cine") while imperfect describes ongoing, habitual, or background actions ("Cuando era niño, iba al cine cada semana"). A tutor can teach this through storytelling exercises where you narrate a personal experience, then analyze published Spanish texts to see how native speakers naturally choose between tenses. Practice writing short narratives where you must consciously switch between tenses reinforces the distinction far better than grammar drills alone.
11th Grade Spanish often includes literature, film, and current events from Spanish-speaking countries, and understanding cultural references makes comprehension and conversation much richer. A tutor can explain regional variations in Spanish (differences between Spain, Mexico, Argentina, etc.), idioms rooted in culture, and historical context behind texts you're studying—all of which appear on AP exams and in college-level courses. Learning why certain expressions exist or how culture shapes communication patterns helps you move beyond translating words to actually understanding how Spanish speakers think and communicate.
11th graders often encounter literature, news articles, and academic texts with unfamiliar vocabulary and complex sentence structures. Rather than translating word-by-word, effective tutors teach strategies like identifying cognates, using context clues, recognizing grammatical patterns to predict meaning, and focusing on main ideas first before details. Working through a challenging text together—where a tutor can pause to explain cultural references, archaic language, or literary devices—helps you build confidence and develop independent reading skills that transfer to new texts you encounter in class.
Many 11th graders can speak basic Spanish but struggle with formal writing—organizing complex arguments, using varied sentence structures, and maintaining correct grammar across longer pieces. A tutor can work with you on essay structure specific to Spanish (thesis placement, paragraph flow), help you move beyond simple present tense to use subjunctive and complex past tenses appropriately, and provide detailed feedback on common errors like gender agreement, preposition usage, and verb conjugation. Regular writing practice with immediate correction helps you internalize rules rather than just memorizing them for tests.
