Hello! My name is Adam, I'm an Eagle Scout, a multi-instrumentalist, and a Catholic Christian. I was a Cornell Engineering student for two years because I loved math and disliked writing, but then switched into Religious Studies because it turned out I liked college reading and writing more than college math! It is very important to me that students learn to have a sense of victory when they learn, whether they're struggling and need to learn victory, or whether they are already successful and need to channel their potential- this is as true for math, where there are correct answers, as it is in writing, where there are more complete answers...

I am a first grade teacher, and a trained Orton-Gillingham tutor. I was trained at The Carroll School, where I worked tutoring several students.

I have many years of experience in the field of education. I am also certified to teach Prek-2 in the state of Massachusetts. Additionally, I have been endorsed by Massachusetts Association of Teachers of Speakers of Other Languages to teach Sheltered English Immersion. Working with English language learners, I have helped improved their language skills to grade level. My lessons with the students are fun and creative. They enjoy these lessons and look forward to having it daily. Once a week, I help a group of monks with their English language skills.

Every student is an opportunity to learn a new way to teach. Since all learners are different I do my best to be an actively flexible educator and be aware of my student's potential and limitations.

My service stands out because of my dedication and patience when working with studens. Although relatively new to the field, I have experience working with a wide-range of learners and have been able to be successful in working with students, despite the challenges they face as learners. I most enjoy watching my students grow in confidence. Witnessing the evolution and transformation of my students into confident learners is extremely fulfilling. I love working with a diverse group of students, with various backgrounds, interests, and skills, and being able to find common ground to develop a positive relationship....

Hi. I am a semi-retired man with advanced degrees. I can teach every subject (I was a biology "pre-med " and English double major) except foreign languages and including math up to and including algebra. My strengths are teaching English, history, civics and government, and the sciences. I am very patient, always encouraging, and never judgmental. I enjoy the challenge of helping my students find the motivation and curiosity to understand schoolwork (and the world!).
