" It's hard to say which I enjoy more-- literature or science. I enjoy exploring methods of learning that work best with the student and really value their feedback on my tutoring style. I like to be approachable during tutoring sessions so that the student can feel comfortable enough to bring up any questions he/she might have or interject if I am unclear. I don't like to lecture during tutoring sessions- I prefer sessions that are interactive and allow me to glean the student's understanding, preferences, and progress. I enjoy tutoring because I love growing with the students and helping them find what they need to succeed in their ...

" During my senior year, I researched and compared the educational systems and conditions faced by Chinese migrant children and those faced by undocumented children in America.

"I'm in New York studying theater and voice but miss my science classes and students like crazy! I'm particularly strong in biology but also totally comfortable with chemistry, English and writing, social studies/history, and test prep. As a teacher my style is to help students discover the answers on their own, and become more confident in their ability to use critical thinking. When I'm not tutoring you can find me running or playing with my mutt Franklin!."

"
I have worked in private tutoring for almost four years with a special focus on critical reading and writing skills and college application essays. My teaching style is laid-back and creative: I work hard to frame the material in a way that is interesting to my students and appeals to their interests, and I base my methods around what works best for them. It is always important to me to speak with my students rather than talking at them, and bringing a sense of humor to the table never hurts!."

"My students have expressed that they appreciate my rigorous, yet patient teaching style. I have high expectations!
For standardized exams such as the SAT, test-taking strategy is foremost in what I teach. Problem-solving techniques first, then vocabulary-building and grammar mechanics. Under my tutelage, I have seen students' test scores jump, sometimes by more than 200 points.
My writing has been published in various online and print publications and I am a strong writing coach."

"I have been tutoring for the past 6 years in all subject areas including math, science, reading, writing, basic skills, music, etc...I have two personal rules I follow for my teaching style:
1. Every student has the capability to learn anything

2. Every student learns in a different way
It is my job to figure out the best way for the student to grasp the information while still having fun and feeling relaxed.."
