Carefully selected, highly-credentialed ACT tutors in Manhasset, NY
"I have a solid background working with students from elementary school through college in all academic subjects - especially math, SAT prep, and essay-writing. I love connecting with individual students, and each one I meet teaches me how to help the next. My tutoring style centers on breaking down concepts and starting from scratch, while focusing on logical thinking and analytical skills. I want the student to be able to teach their way through solving a problem so they can apply the fundamentals in other places.

" It was in my freshman year at Muhlenberg that I was first trained as a tutor. Ever since I have been tutoring Math, Chemistry and standardized tests.

As of January 2012 I have tutored more than 20 students for a total of nearly 500 hours.

With test prep I've found that supplemental work on fundamental skills helps students improve their scores much more than working through a test prep book alone. Watching students develop confidence in their abilities and improve their performance makes my tutoring sessions some of the best hours of my week!." ...
