Award-Winning Tutors from Tufts University

I earned my Bachelor of Arts in both Child Development and French from Tufts University. During my time at Tufts, I also taught in Boston-area preschools, supporting early literacy, numeracy, and social skill development through the Jumpstart program. After graduating, I stayed in Boston and tutored 9th-12th graders in a wide range of subjects while earning my teaching license. After that, I taught 3rd and 4th grade where my students earned best in state scores on their end of year state test. In fact, my students in my final year of teaching were ranked #1 and #2 in the state of Massachusetts on their Math and ELA state tests, respectively. In addition to teaching, I have spent the last 1.5 years working on ELA curriculum design and teacher development for a network of schools in NYC and CT. I am also currently pursuing Master's degrees in Children's Literature (M.A.) and Library and Information Science (M.S.). I love tutoring many subjects and students of all ages, but I am especially passionate about reading. Struggling or reluctant readers often see reading as a chore, so I believe it is imperative to develop a student's love for literacy at the same time as their skill, no matter what age they are. When I'm not working, you can find me pleasure reading (often via audiobook!), running, watching soccer and football, or cooking.

My name is Cionna and I am an engineer by education and scientist by occupation. I have a bachelors in Chemical Engineering and a masters in Bioengineering. Outside of work, I am passionate about math, science, and helping students build their confidence in those subjects. Since each student has a unique learning experience, it is important to meet students where they're at and find a way to best facilitate their learning. I hope to inspire and help each person that I meet.

I'm a master's student studying Civil Engineering hoping to design buildings one day. I've always enjoyed Math and Science and hope I can help you enjoy it too!

I have been speaking Spanish my whole life. At home, at school and now as my major, I am passionate about the language and the several cultures that come with it. In 2016 I had the privilege to spend a year working in a foster home in Spain. This opportunity allowed me to begin tutoring in both English and Spanish, and forced me to learn a new way of speaking both languages myself. My other passions in life include theatre, history and literature. I am eager to help share my knowledge in any way with you!

I am an Electrical Design Engineer in Walpole Massachusetts working on embedded system development.

I am also involved in an outreach program at my local vocational high school to help motivate young students towards engineering disciplines. I pride myself on helping students break down problems and learn problem solving skills that can be applied to any subject. I believe education is a lifelong commitment and getting the most out of it create success. I enjoy working with students of all ages and believe I can help them achieve higher levels of learning.

I studied International Relations, Arabic, and Economics at Tufts University before deciding to pursue a career in medicine. While completing my post-bacc at Harvard, I worked as a research assistant in the lab of the Chief of Nephrology at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and volunteered extensively. One of my favorite volunteer experiences was tutoring high school students from Dorchester and Roxbury. I taught my students English, Physics, Chemistry, Algebra, Trigonometry, Biology, and helped them with standardized test preparation. My personal tutoring style is to use a combination of relatable metaphors and real life examples to help my students genuinely understand whatever material we are covering. I scored in the 98th percentile on the SAT and the MCAT2015, so I feel confident with a variety of test preparation. I am currently applying to medical school and enjoy powerlifting, grand strategy games, historical fiction, and chocolate.

Recently, I received my Doctorate in Chemistry from Tufts University. I have over 10 years of tutoring experience, specializing in subjects such as AP Chemistry, Calculus, and Algebra.

I am a current last year medical student, about to become a doctor. I have a bachelor's degree in biology with double minors in psychology and English from Fordham University, where I graduated summa cum laude. As a liberal arts school, Fordham required I take a wide variety of college classes to graduate, so I have a broad range of experience with college classes. I have also formerly taught kindergarten through 5th grade students as a substitute teacher. Finally, throughout college I was a tutor online for other students at my college in classes I had already completed.

I'm a history and Spanish teacher with experience in high school and middle school classrooms.

I am a recently retired attorney with a Bachelor's Degree in Political Science from Tufts University, who has tutored and mentored children and young adults for many years. My teaching philosophy centers on creating a supportive learning environment where students feel empowered to express their ideas and develop critical thinking skills. I believe in tailoring my approach to each student's unique needs, as they foster a sense of curiosity and engagement in the material. My goal is always to establish trust and a path for open communication so I can assist the student in gaining a real understanding of the information. The ultimate goal is to empower each student so that they can master the topic and move forward with confidence! I look forward to helping with subjects such as AP U.S. Government &; Politics, High School English, and LSAT preparation. I have a college-age daughter and live in Maryland. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, meeting new people, reading and exploring new perspectives through travel, which further enhances my ability to connect with students from diverse backgrounds.

My name is Corlene. I tutor electrical engineering, computer science, mathematics from high school to graduate level. I focus on student-led instruction, where I work with you to find the gaps in your understanding and to focus directly on problems that will benefit you the most. I also focus on intuitive and visual explanations for high-level scientific and mathematical concepts, and find it especially important for more abstract concepts to creatively explain topics to build an intuitive understanding before focusing on the underlying math. As for my background, I have worked part-time as a teacher's assistant or tutor for high school to graduate level classes for 4 years, and have taught calculus, data structures, signal processing, programming languages, concurrency, and algorithms formally. I have a master's degree in electrical and computer engineering and a bachelor's degree with a double major in electrical engineering and computer science.

My name is Lev Tolkoff, I am from Brookline, MA. I am a rising Junior at Tufts University Studying Economics and Classics, and I'm on the varsity rowing team. I attended Belmont Hill for high school. I am open to tutoring Latin and Math at any level. I am living in Medford this summer and am open to online or in person tutoring!

I've always been interested in thinking deeply about anything. Whether word puzzles, chess moves, history, mathematics, or literature. As a kid, I would trade going to the playground for staring at a map and try to remember the countries, their capitals, their borders, etc. I then found the world of mathematics where thinking deeply about even the simplest ideas, as Bertrand Russell did in his famous paper proving why 1 + 1 = 2 from the ground up, was key to mastery. I wasn't fond of rote memorization and applying formulae. Instead, I was interested in the patterns that were involved. Why was there a formula for quadratic, cubic, and quartic equations but not quintic equations? I was curious. I found my Wikipedia. There I read about Galois Theory and how Galois proved there to be no quintic formula. Of course, I had not the slightest clue about group theory, ring theory, or Galois theory at the time. With this yearning to always try to seek more knowledge, I didn't hesitate to major in mathematics at Tufts University. As a tutor, when I work with students I try to make them question everything and try to guide their curiosity.

I am passionate about tutoring because I benefited from having a math tutor in high school. I am a mechanical engineer by training and hold an advanced degree from Tufts University in environmental science and management. I have tutored over 1000 students in various levels of math and science, and while I truly love doing math and science, what I find fulfilling is to see students really grasp the material, apply it, and also enjoy it.

Engineer by day, tutor by night! When not building implants, I enjoy exploring math and physics with students of all ages. I've tutored students in Kindergarten through college, helping with understanding everything from basic addition to multivariable calculus. I have a bachelor's degree in mechanical and biomedical engineering from Tufts university.

I am a recent Tufts University grad with a degree in chemical physics and environmental studies. I am a dual citizen of the United States and Sweden and apparently sleep talk in both languages. My biggest passion is the preservation of the environment, and I hope to start a career as an environmental scientist. I am currently certified to both prepare students for the ACT exam and tutor mathematics (algebra and pre-calculus), physics, chemistry, and general science. In my free time I enjoy reading, skiing, hiking, cooking, longboarding, sailing, and watching over the top action movies. I do not want to give you the right answers; I want teach you how to find the right answers yourself. That means I will be patient and help you understand the fundamentals of the subject matter. I understand that preparing for a test like the ACT might seem hard, but I want to show you that you have what it takes to conquer the exam.

I am a middle school special education teacher, who has also taught middle school ELA, ESL in a summer program to teenagers, private ESL lessons, and at a home for students with behavioral and emotional issues. I strive to create engaging and challenging lessons to help students improve their skills and become more prepared for college and career success!

I am a graduate of Boston University where I earned both my M.S. and Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering.

I have tutored in Math, Music, English as a Second Language, Reading, and Writing. I have tutored while living on both coasts as well as while living in South America. I love working one-on-one with students, meeting the challenges of discovering what strategies work best with each student. I regularly use Howard Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences as a touchstone for the work I do with students, incorporating visual, musical, and kinesthetic strategies into my teaching. I love watching my students learn, develop, and grow both as students and as individuals. My goal is to build the confidence and skills each student needs to become a successful independent and lifelong learner. To continue my own learning, I am an avid reader and an extensive traveler; my most recent trips include Italy and South Africa. I enjoy spending time with my family, gardening, painting, music, and soccer.

Hello future students! I am a graduate from Tufts University with a degree in Child Study and Human Development, though I will soon be pursuing a Master's at the University of Vermont to become a speech-language pathologist. Since undergrad, I have worked as a K-2 Literacy tutor, a social worker at a Head Start Preschool, and most recently ran a teen leadership development program at a children's museum. I recognize that traditional education isn't suited for all types of learning, so I'm dedicated to making material accessible to my students for their unique needs. I think that tutoring should be fun while increasing students' confidence and expertise in their subject. When not working, I like to be outside enjoying the sun or at a concert (or both!). I can't wait to meet you!

I am an enthusiastic, empathetic, student-centered educator focused on meeting students of all ages where they are and helping them achieve their goals. I have been teaching and learning all my life!

My tutoring experience stems from my involvement in the National Honor Society at Xaverian Brothers High School where I tutored Freshman and Sophomore classes in our mathematics and science, specifically Algebra, Calculus and Biology. Furthermore, after being inducted in the Tau Beta Pi Engineering Honor Society at BU, I led tutoring sessions specifically geared to Engineering principles such as mechanics, physics, and mathematics. As an engineer, my favorite subjects to study are High School to College Mathematics as well as the Sciences (Physics, Chemisty, Biology) because it gives the mind a great workout! I am a generally upbeat and motivated individual which is essentially translated to my tutoring strategies; if you can somehow make the subject engaging, the more chances the student will want to learn the material! I enjoy that "A-ha!" moment when the student fully and finally understands a concept! In my spare time, I am a competitive ballroom dancer, theater aficionado and a scientific researcher in biomedical engineering!

I'm a student at Tufts University majoring in Biomedical Engineering with an intended minor in English. I've been tutoring throughout high school and college in a variety of core STEM and humanities courses, working in both a paid and volunteer capacity. Building a fundamental understanding of a subject in order to develop the flexibility to solve challenging, out-of-the box problems has always been my favorite way both to learn and to teach.Through my major, I've had the opportunity to integrate math, physics, chemistry, and biology in the context of medical innovation. As such, I've developed an understanding of real-world applications of and connections between the subjects we study in school, and I'm enthusiastic about communicating that understanding with others. I'm also involved with a variety of student publications on campus, including the student-run medical journal, and I'm an avid reader and writer.

Outside of the classroom, as hinted at above, I am extremely passionate about athletics! I have played baseball, basketball, and tennis since elementary school and am just getting into running (including my completion of the Cambridge Half Marathon this past November). In addition, as a former clarinet player and marching band drum major, I love all types of music (despite my sister monopolizing all of the singing talent in my family :) I look forward to giving everything I have to helping my clients thrive across their chemistry coursework!

Hello, my name is Lena! I graduated from Tufts University in 2017 with a BS in Biology, and I just completed my MS of Biomedical Studies at Drexel University. In my master's program, I was a peer tutor for graduate level sciences, such as anatomy, physiology, and biochemistry. In August, I will be starting medical school to pursue my dream of being a physician. In the meantime, I am here to help with pre-med coursework, MCAT prep, and many other classes. I am frequently available for online tutoring.

I've been passionate about helping students ever since I was a student myself in middle school and high school. I used to tutor my friends and help them with their homework. After I graduated from high school, I got my bachelor's in Fine Arts from Tufts University and a CTEFL certificate from Boston Academy of English. For the past 5 years, I've been living and working in Laos, where I've had the pleasure of teaching so many incredible students. In my previous job, I taught English in classrooms, tutored individual students, provided online classes, and even helped to developed workshops in subjects like environmental protection, computer basics, and menstrual health. I trained adults to teach English as a second language and get comfortable teaching in front of a class, often for the first time! I have found that teaching English has allowed me to travel the world and make a difference in the lives of so many students, young and old! I hope someday to start my own English center and social enterprise here in Laos with my husband. When I was younger, I always dreamed of being an art teacher. Although it is not as useful a subject in my current location, it is one I'm very passionate about. I think art is an incredible form of expression and with more or more opportunities to earn money online through creative media, it's a great way to get a head start!
