All my life I've had a knack for all math subjects. I graduated from Northeastern University with a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering and a Master of Science in Engineering Management (both summa cum laude). I have had over three years of professional private tutoring experience with students ranging from elementary to college level in a multitude of math and science based topics. My favorite subject to tutor is math and I am most interested and familiar with tutoring Algebra, Trigonometry, and any level of Calculus. Outside of academics, I have a strong passion for music. I learned piano at the age of four and taught myself guitar just before going to college.Professionally speaking, aside from tutoring, I have worked at Bose as an electrical engineer for the past five years designing audio amplifiers and enjoy tinkering with electronics in my spare time.Ultimately my objective is to strive to help students reach their fullest potential.

Learning is one of the most rewarding experiences in life, so I'm passionate about helping people a discover that experience. I've worked in various teaching-related roles for the past 4 years, between summer camps and volunteering at after school programs. I've tutored for 3 semesters at Northeastern in Algebra 2, Pre-calc, and Intro levels of Macro and Micro economics.I absolutely love tutoring math, seeing homework problems get completed is incredibly satisfying. More importantly, learning to think through a problem critically and really understand why your answer is right is a very important skill that applies to all problem solving in any phase of life. The reason I've chosen to study Finance and Economics is to apply that same critical thinking to bigger/more applied situations such as running a successful business and developing economic policy.My tutoring style is very conversational. It's important for me to identify what a student understands and what they don't, from there I work to outline the reasoning that goes into finding the right answer. I'm here to guide a student, and empower them to perform the same sort of critical thinking on problems they face in the future.

I received my Bachelor's degree in Mathematics from Dartmouth College and am currently working on my Masters of Science in Applied Math with a focus in Statistics at Northeastern University (completion in December, 2014). I have worked for many years as a tutor and teacher, starting when the chair of my high school's math department recommended me to a number of families during my junior year of high school. I tutored for two years in High School, then worked all four years of college as a tutor, study group leader and teaching assistant. My professional life was also in the field of education until I left to start my Masters in the fall of 2012. When a student realizes that they truly understand a concept (not just how to do it, but WHY it's done that way) is the greatest moment for a tutor and I consider myself lucky that I can continue to tutor while working on my degree. My favorite subject to tutor is Statistics, although I'm available for other subjects as well. In addition to tutoring, I enjoy cooking, hiking, camping, biking, reading, doing crossword puzzles, and playing and watching soccer.

I believe the fundamental goal of teaching is to foster learning. Learning takes place in many different contexts. Although everyone is capable of learning, a student's desire to learn is a vital pre-condition to effectively master new concepts and skills. I feel I can influence a student's desire to absorb information by understanding their learning style. People have multiple learning styles: some learn best in lecture atmospheres, some are more engaged by discussion, and others absorb knowledge best when they read and reflect on what they have read. The classroom setting can encourage or inhibit learning depending on the dominant learning style of each student. Accommodating different learning styles creates an atmosphere that is conducive to learning.In addition to addressing different learning styles, flexibility is also a critical component to teaching. As an instructor, it is my job to ensure that learning is taking place all the time which is accomplished by breaking down barriers and observing my student's behaviors. While being prepared for class is critical, it is important to be able to deviate from the plan in order to ensure learning is taking place. No two students or classes are the same and what worked for one class may not be as effective for another class. Even from one class session to another, their mood can change. Students have a lot of on their plate, and sometimes they will come to class energized while other days they may be disengaged. I feel it is my job to identify these moments and adapt the lessons to re-engage them, maximizing our learning opportunities.I see my job as a facilitator because I am creating an atmosphere of learning by guiding students and encouraging their participation through both in-class discussions and online discussion boards. I encourage learning by creating a relaxed environment for students, stimulating conversation about concepts being presented, and organizing material in a way that makes it easiest to understand. I treat subject matter as interconnected, emphasizing that everything students are learning fits together into a holistic understanding of the world, from which they develop their own personal worldview. This approach is accomplished by bringing in real world projects to my classes. When students work on a project that connects to the course material but also has real-life practicality, they put greater effort into their final product. They appreciate the chance to work on something that will be used by an organization (e.g., Submitting real grant applications) rather than just filed away or discarded.One of the most important concepts I hope to impart to students is that learning is a process that never ends. For me, the learning process includes improving myself professionally. I want to read more about formal learning theories to expand my understanding of how learning takes place. As I continue to instruct classes, I also aim to enhance my comfort and confidence in front of classrooms and audiences. Finally, I plan to experiment with different methods and means of presenting information to classes in order to improve the learning atmosphere I create for my students. I continue to grow my professional network and share best practices with colleagues whenever possible in an order to keep my material relevant and adapt with the times."Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire."- W.B. Yeats

Current Undergrad, Pharmacy Northeastern University
9+ Years Tutoring

I am a current undergraduate student at Northeastern University working towards a pharmacy degree, while minoring in Biology and Chinese. I first started tutoring in high school through peer tutoring, working with students younger than me and tutoring them in subjects that I had excelled in. Besides helping them in purely academic subjects like Chemistry or Math, I also gave them tips to study better and other organizational skills, which help in daily life as well. I really enjoy working with students and working with them towards their goals, both academically and personally. I believe anyone can succeed as long as they are interested and are willing to put in the time and effort. When I work with students, I try to break down different problems into smaller chunks, and work through these smaller bits to understand the big picture. I know how frustrating it is to not understand something, and I try to work with each student to figure out their strengths and weaknesses. I think the most rewarding thing is when you see the student go "aha!" and understand something they have been struggling with, it really gives both of you a feeling of satisfaction and relief. Outside of school, I like to do ballroom dancing while drinking way too much coffee.

Education is the greatest asset a person can have. It's important, but it should also be fun to learn. Many people think education in general is boring when they have to learn about something. I try to keep it light in nature, using humor to help the student be comfortable, but also assist them in gaining confidence while they learn.Using personal experience tends to be helpful also when tutoring. If the student can somehow relate, it is easier for them to retain the information.When I'm not trying to help someone learn, I enjoy spending time with my son reading, photography, wine tastings and crafting.

I am pursuing my MA in English at Northeastern University beginning fall of 2014, with an expected graduation date of May 2016. I've worked with students of all ages, grades, and levels, both informally during my high school years and more formally with 826 Boston. I tutor students in English and all related areas: language arts, essay writing, literature, and phonics, as well as test prep for the SAT Verbal, Critical Reading, and Writing, as well as the ACT English, Reading, and Writing. I have experience working with ESL students of all levels, and am working on my TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) Certification this summer. I love tutoring students in reading and literature; learning how to analyze literary works reveals so much more depth and makes reading such a rewarding experience. I also really enjoy working with ESL students, and attempting to learn several foreign languages on my own has given me a strong sense of respect for anyone attempting to learn to speak English. I make sure my students learn how to do their work themselves, and believe in breaking down different study procedures and subject matter into small, bite-size pieces. Every student has the potential to be a successful reader and a successful writer, and the two skills really go hand-in-hand. When I'm not in classes or working, I love to travel, and I spend a lot of time doing poetry-related activities: I write my own, read the work of my fellow poets, contribute and edit with a friend's independent publishing company, and attend all the readings and open mics I can.

Hi, I'm Shelby! I bring a curious and supportive spirit to tutoring and believe learning works best when learners feel seen, heard, and encouraged. I specialize in social media content creation and marketing, video editing, Canva, and Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere Pro, InDesign, After Effects, and more). With 8+ years of experience as a professional graphic designer and marketer, I help students build the skills and confidence to bring their creative ideas to life, whether for professional projects, personal passions, or launching a business. My tutoring style is warm, flexible, and student-centered. I meet learners where they are, adapt lessons to their goals, and guide them at a pace that feels right. Every student learns differently, and I'm here to support their unique journey with patience, creativity, and plenty of encouragement.

In my experience, I have learned how important it is for help in my studies. Now that I have gained some experience and knowledge, I want to give back by making myself available to help others. I am currently a freshman in college. I can tutor pretty much any math and physics, two subjects that I enjoy a lot.

Frequently Asked Questions

Varsity Tutors connects students with tutors who attended or graduated from Northeastern University, bringing firsthand knowledge of the university's rigorous curriculum and academic standards. These tutors understand the specific challenges of Northeastern's coursework, from engineering and computer science to business and health sciences, and can provide insights that go beyond standard textbook explanations. Their experience navigating Northeastern's demanding academics makes them exceptionally well-equipped to help students master complex material.

Alumni tutors bring practical perspective to your learning because they've successfully completed the exact courses and challenges you're facing. They can share study strategies that worked for them, explain how concepts connect across your major, and help you understand what professors emphasize most. Beyond academics, they can offer advice on how to balance Northeastern's co-op program, research opportunities, and coursework—giving you a mentor who truly understands your student experience.

Given Northeastern's strength in engineering, computer science, mathematics, and business, tutors with a Northeastern background are particularly skilled in these areas. However, Varsity Tutors connects students with alumni across all disciplines—including sciences, humanities, health professions, and more. Whether you need help with advanced calculus, programming fundamentals, organic chemistry, or business strategy, you can get matched with a tutor whose Northeastern education prepared them to explain these subjects clearly and thoroughly.

Yes. Tutors who graduated from Northeastern understand the types of problems, question formats, and expectations in Northeastern courses and exams. They can help you prepare for midterms, finals, and cumulative assessments by walking through real problem-solving strategies and identifying concepts that commonly appear on tests. If you're preparing for professional exams related to your major—like engineering licensing exams, MCAT preparation for health-professions tracks, or CPA exams for accounting students—alumni tutors can provide targeted guidance based on their own preparation experience.

One of the biggest challenges for Northeastern students is managing the co-op program alongside demanding courses. Alumni tutors have navigated this exact schedule themselves and can offer practical advice on how to stay on top of material before, during, and after your co-op rotations. They understand the unique time-management pressures you face and can help you prioritize, catch up efficiently, and build strong foundations in courses that matter most for your career path—based on real experience with balancing both commitments.

Varsity Tutors makes it easy to find the right match. You simply tell us your subject, your current level, and your goals—and we connect you with a tutor who has the Northeastern background and expertise you're looking for. The matching process considers your specific needs, scheduling preferences, and learning style, so you work with someone who's genuinely equipped to help you succeed.

Research shows that personalized 1-on-1 instruction is one of the most effective ways to learn, because tutoring adapts to your pace, fills your specific knowledge gaps, and gives you immediate feedback. When your tutor is a Northeastern alumnus, you add another powerful layer: they know the university's expectations, can anticipate where students typically struggle, and can connect course material to real applications they've experienced. This combination of personalized instruction plus insider knowledge creates a learning experience tailored exactly to your needs.
