Alejandra
Lessons, Homework Help, & Test Prep with a Friendly Yale grad
Hi there! My name is Alejandra, and I've been working as a tutor for high school and college students for the past ten years. I offer highly personalized academic support for a small number of long-term students and clients. I feel that ALL students benefit from the one-one-one focused attention of a tutor, whether they are struggling academically or not. I maintain an active tutoring roster of only eight students at any given time, so that I can bring my maximum focus to each student's ... Read more

Joan--Tufts grad, B.A., M.S.Ed. Reading and writing, study skills, ESL
I have experience tutoring students from 6th grade to adult, with a wide range of skill levels, including some with learning disabilities, and English as a second language. I present the lessons in different ways, depending on how the student learns best. I have taught and tutored literature, study skills, composition, grammar, reading comprehension, test preparation, and time management, note-taking, and research. Teaching is all I've done, and I love seeing students succeed!... Read more

During college, I tutored a local high-school student who was struggling in her chemistry class. Right away we developed a productive working relationship and in almost no time my student's grades improved significantly - she went from receiving below average scores to As. My student, her mother and I were beside ourselves with delight - I would absolutely love the opportunity to reproduce these results with other students. I am a strong believer in starting with a student's strengths, build... Read more

Comprehensive Writing Instruction Made Easy!
My interest in teaching lies in my desire to empower anyone who is in a learning environment. Over the years I have tutored college students, I often encounter students who are struggling with their self-confidence as much as they are with where to place a semi-colon. By meeting the learner where they are in the process of writing, I learned that it is much easier for a student to grasp a concept, exercise their knowledge and master a challenge when they felt supported. Perhaps more importan... Read more

Pomona College Grad for Academic Tutoring and Music Instruction
Over the past five years, I have tutored students from age nine to fifty with diverse learning goals and obstacles. Whether the subject is math, French, grammar, reading comprehension, or music, I enjoy helping each student build confidence and independent learning skills in an environment of patience and positivity. I believe that creating a space where students feel comfortable and supported enables them to meet learning goals and overcome emotional obstacles like anxiety and low self-estee... Read more

Since retiring as School Superintendent I have missed the educational environment tremendously. Throughout my 28 years serving in public education, my greatest professional satisfaction came in the classroom. Thus, I have continued to serve as a substitute teacher. I taught English for 25 years. Subsequent to my retirement I have spent weeks and months as a long- and short-term substitute teacher. I hope that there are young people who might benefit from my teaching experiences. I am willi... Read more
