about Barrett
Hello, I am Barrett Gallo, a rising high school freshman from Rhode Island. I am a competitive squash player and the co-owner of a pet sitting business with my sister. For the past three years, I have volunteered at an after school sports and academic program for underserved middle schoolers with a focus on college acceptance. Additionally, during COVID -19, I began volunteering with elementary students for Learn to Be online tutoring.
I have a strong math and science background, but I enjoy working with younger children in reading and math. I love to read and work to tailor volunteer sessions to the interests and strengths of the students. Many of the students I tutor come from a large classroom setting where the teacher does not have time to adjust the work to the student's learning style. I am also available to teach English to anyone who is learning it for the first time.
