Anna P.

Private tutor in Medford, MA

Education

B.A., Physics, Swarthmore College Minors: Mathematics and Educational Studies Pennsylvania Teacher Certification Program, Swarthmore College (PA cert in Physics 6-12, and NC licenses in Physics 7-12 and Math 7-12; expired due to not teaching in PA/NC public schools). M.S./PhD, Physics in progress, Tufts University

Experience

After three years of teaching high school physics at a private preparatory school, I am now pursing a PhD in physics, with my research focused on how students learn physics. I am looking for regular tutoring clients for the 2014-2015 school year. As someone who studies how students learn, I know that the best tutoring isn't just about content--it's about developing a students' ability to learn independently. I have experience working one on one with students to develop individualized strategies tailored to how that student learns best. I have experience working with high school and college students with learning and mild developmental disabilities/differences, including ADHD, dyslexia, executive functioning and processing disorders, and autism spectrum disorder (high functioning/"Aspergers" only). In high school and college settings, I have worked extensively to improve students' writing. Communication skills are important in every field, and physics is no exception. General high school tutoring: $80/hr +($20/hr for direct communication with teachers) AP/College Freshman Physics & Math: $90/hr Advanced College Math & Physics: $110/hr (Multivariable Calculus, Linear Algebra, Differential Equations, Discrete Math, thermodynamics and statistical mechanics, junior level mechanics and E&M) SAT/ACT/GRE tutoring: $90/hr
