"As a graduate of Stuyvesant High School and Honors College at City University, I can comfortably claim years of knowledge and expertise in these fields-- knowledge that I would love to share with you in your mission to reach, or even exceed, your expectations. My approach to tutoring is strictly peer-to-peer, so fear not being lectured or told what to do. However, I will push you to realize your full potential, and once that train starts rolling, there will be no stopping you!."

" Using your own thoughts as a starting point, we will go through a series of diagnostic questions to quantify your proficiency in the course. With these two data points, we can begin to construct a personalized instruction schedule which will be tailored to satisfy your own goals, and to focus on problem areas revealed from the diagnostic questions. I have applied this own methodology to my testing for years, and have had great success. I truly believe that we can work together to achieve that same success for you!."

"I believe it is important for an educator to understand how a given student learns in order to best reach that student. No where is this more true than in one-on-one tutoring. I also believe it is an educator's job not only to teach, but to instill a love of learning. For this reason, I think I may be able to reach struggling students who have had less success with other teachers."

"
My specialties are English, the social sciences, and test prep (I especially enjoy the LSAT - logic games can be lots of fun!). Pattern recognition is the key to any standardized test; figuring out the pattern is all a part of the fun. I also enjoy working with students on reading and essay writing, and can offer the eye of an editor who has worked with two authors on early drafts of published books. I look forward to helping you reach your educational goals!."

"When I'm not tutoring or working on my dissertation, I do some freelance writing. It's a cliche to say that my writing informs my teaching while my teaching improves my writing, but it's also true: the constant effort to improve my own work helps me to understand what my students are going through, while my work as a teacher and tutor gives me a fresh perspective on my writing. I always stress that writing is rewriting. One of my happiest moments as a teacher was when one of my students won the UC Berkeley English Department's annual Essay Prize last spring with a paper I helped her to revise." ...

"I will be conducting research until I begin medical school in Fall 2013. I have over four years of tutoring experience including teacher assistant at Skidmore, working with local high school students and coordinating with my ice hockey team to complete several community service projects in our area. My experiences as a tutor, team leader, published researcher, and NCAA athlete have taught me to form strong bonds with those I work with.

"I can work with students to help them master the material for a particular topic or to construct a comprehensive program for enrichment throughout the course. While earning my bachelor’s degree at The University of Chicago, I studied both the biological sciences and the historical context of large-scale research projects in biology (as an example, the Human Genome Project). I then completed my master's thesis in transplant immunology at Mount Sinai School of Medicine, where I studied the methods the host immune system employs to reject donated tissues.
