Theresa
Pre-Calculus Tutor • +46 Subjects
I am a sophomore at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, majoring in music and computational biology. I have always had a passion for teaching, and have experience tutoring students in a wide range of grade levels and subjects throughout my years in middle school, high school, and my freshman year at MIT through the Academic Teaching Initiative. I hope to help, and have had past success in helping, students succeed at whatever their goals may be; improved grades, improved standardized test scores, even college admissions. I hope to not only aid students in reaching checkpoints, but also to give them the personal interest in their material and the curiosity to help them move forward and continue to succeed in the future. The majority of my experience lies in tutoring middle school and high school math, middle school science, and biology, but I am also qualified to tutor high school science, a large number of AP exams, the PSAT, and the ACT. Given my current status as an undergraduate student, I am also uniquely able to offer mentoring and advice to any student interested in student life in college and college admissions. More than anything, I strive to be an approachable and reliable tutor whom my students feel that they can be comfortable with, because it is when a student is aware that their teacher is on their side that they feel comfortable thinking and asking questions in the ways that will help them grow. In my free time, I study music and vocal pedagogy, practice makeup artistry, and watch films.

I am in my 6th year teaching English at a private independent school in Pittsburgh where I also serve as the Associate Director of College Counseling. I like to practice what I preach, so I remain active as a freelance writer. My most recent article was published by the new Pittsburgh magazine 1839. I also compose and produce music. I am a former chair of the alumni schools committee for my alma mater, The University of Chicago, and I currently interview local applicants for admission each cycle. I simply love empowering youth---—especially through writing, and I spend much of my free time teaching summer programs and leading workshops on writing and the college process.
Sruti
Geometry Tutor • +2 Subjects
I am a PhD student at Carnegie Mellon University in the field of Electrical and Computer Engineering. I recently completed my bachelors also at Carnegie Mellon University in Electrical and Computer Engineering as well as Human Computer Interaction. Over the last several years, I have experience teaching a wide variety of students ranging from elementary school math, introduction to programming for children, as well as college level classes. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about Math, Physics, and Computer Science. I really enjoy teaching programming, especially in fun and engaging ways. I like to relate what I teach to things my students are passionate about, or teach them through fun activities and games, so that they are easier to understand. I also help students prepare for standardized tests and have several strategies that I can share, especially for the math section of the tests. In my spare time, I enjoy dancing, music, hiking and anything outdoors!
