I have spent over 5 years teaching and tutoring in all math subjects from 5th grade and up, as well as a variety of science and English classes. This has included teaching in unique 1-on-1 style private schools, tutoring at a fast-paced after school tutoring center, and working as a teaching...

I hold a M.S. in Oceanography from the University of Rhode Island and a B.S. in Physics (with a minor in Geology and additional extensive coursework in English) from University of Massachusetts - Amherst. I have spent over 5 years teaching and tutoring in all math subjects from 5th grade and up, as well as a variety of science and English classes. This has included teaching in unique 1-on-1 style private schools, tutoring at a fast-paced after school tutoring center, and working as a teaching assistant through my graduate education.

One of my favorite parts of working with new students is figuring out what learning style works best for them! I myself am a very visual learner and love making diagrams and models to clarify ideas. I also enjoy learning students' interests and relating subject matter to them when appropriate!

I hope that my experience and approach fit your needs and I hope to speak with you soon. Please don't hesitate to contact me with any questions!

Creative Writing

Creative Writing

Over the past 4 years, I have taught a number of students in English classes ranging from 7th though 11th grade. Each of these classes included a unit of study and/or other components of creative writing. I have also worked as a tutor to help students edit their writing structure and grammar since 2020. During college, I took many classes in English as well.
Earth Science

Earth Science

I have my M.S. in Oceanography which requires an understanding of earth systems, and minored in Geology during undergraduate studies. As a teacher, I have successfully taught high school level environmental science and marine biology, as well as middle school earth science multiple times.

Knowledgeable and helpful

Emma helped guide through the problems and solve what was needed. She was patient and kind. I would use her again if need be. Thanks Emma! I appreciate your help so very much! Physics is no joke lol.

Very knowledgable and helpful

Emma taught me how to understand what I was doing rather than just telling me what to do. I would highly recommend her for anybody who needs physics or matlab help!

Great tutor

My daughter loved working with Emma. She explained things and gave her strategies to help her understand the math concepts they were working on. She was excellent with communicating with me. I recommend her.
