Ariana
Experienced English and Writing Tutor: Essays, SAT, ACT, AP, and More!
- $180 / h
- 302 ratings
- Billerica , Massachusetts ( 01821 )
- 20 miles
I’ve always loved learning and sharing the joy of discovery and the thrill of a challenge with others. I find that the more a student can relate his or her own passions and experiences to a subject, the more that subject's material becomes a part of the student, rather than stale information to be memorized and forgotten. My goal, therefore, is to engage those I tutor, not merely to instruct. I graduated from Pomona College in 2006 Cum Laude with a B.A. degree in English and minors in Lingui... Read more

I am at the tail end of a mathematics PhD at Boston College where I have developed new tools and perspectives at the cutting edge of research in low-dimensional topology, and gained 10 semesters worth of experience teaching math ...
