About Robert
I hold a BA from Middlebury College and an MS in Biology from the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, and specialize in helping my students improve their writing, test-taking, and language skills. Many years spent living, studying, and working as a teacher in Spain have left me with native-like Spanish language skills, and I am happy to accommodate lessons in either English or Spanish, regardless of the subject of study. I pride myself on being an engaging teacher and meeting my students at the level they’re at, whether it be while practicing for standardized testing (SAT/ACT) or working on writing or language skills.
I employ a personalized approach for each writing student, using active-learning techniques to improve grammatical and technical skills while also helping them to gain more confidence using their academic voices and critical thinking skills. In addition to my work as a teacher and tutor for students of all ages (three years), I have two years of experience working as a proofreader and editor, during which I have helped hundreds of clients submit or publish essays, theses, dissertations, and scientific studies. I also enjoy helping my students with college and scholarship essays, and have previously received a Fulbright Award and numerous other scholarships in my own academic career.
When it comes to the SAT and ACT, I know from first-hand experience that test-taking strategies, focus, and confidence are key components of reaching one’s potential. When working with my standardized testing students, I aim to not only improve their working knowledge and problem-solving skills, but also teach strategies that help them to use their time effectively and understand their own strengths and weaknesses to improve study habits leading up to exam day.
Please feel free to reach out with any questions or tutoring requests—I love getting to know new students and am happy to accommodate irregular hours!
