Do the Write Thing

• $45 / h
• Cambridge , Massachusetts ( 02138 )
• 5 miles

I didn't have a very supportive early education experience. In the Ireland of the 1980s, marching through a Christian Brothers academic regime, one was either an A student and heading to college or simply a warm body being moved through a system. Suffice it to say, I wasn't one of the successful, college bound, A students. As an adult I discovered I had a mild form of dyslexia. And while I love to read and write (and always have, despite the inauspicious formative years), both skills take me... Read more

Last year I graduated from Princeton where I earned high honors and higher grades as a Classics major and Linguistics minor. Great language, studying, and test-taking skills helped me be successful in school; now I aim to use those skills to help you achieve similar success. For the past 6 years I've tutored others in Latin and for the SATs. I begin each session by identifying the student's specific goals and difficulties.

Yes, Virginia, mathematics can be fun.

• $60 / h
• Cambridge , Massachusetts ( 02138 )
• 15 miles

I love mathematics, and believe that with story, visual models, patience, and humor, I can help any struggling student. Most of my considerable experience is with elementary students, but I am certified to teach at the high school level. Mathematics is about patterns, and these patterns have a beautiful simplicity. But math is not always taught that way. It can be taught as a bewildering procession of calculation rules and procedures, and that can turn students off pretty quickly if mem... Read more

I'm very empathetic, with a well-developed ability of seeing the other person's perspective and adapting accordingly. I believe that's the main factor differentiating me from others out there.

My role in this business has been primarily as a Producer/Creative Director, or in other words, in the verbal rather than the technical side of the media production process. In this capacity, I have also become a tutor... Read more
