Viewing credentialed Elementary Math tutors in Yonkers
" I just graduated this past August, my last two years spent tutoring just about every undergraduate Math and Physics course in the curriculum, as well as some SAT and GRE Math prep. I averaged around 10-15 students per semester, received consistently great feedback and eventually became the most requested Math/Physics tutor on campus. I still keep in touch with many of my students, partly because getting to know a person, and getting a feel for how he/she thinks and sees the world is such an integral part of effective one-on-one tutoring. There seems to be a 'recurring theme' among students faced with difficulty in math or math-intensive ...

" I enjoy helping children and teenagers to feel more confident in themselves as learners because I know this to significantly impact on their engagement in school and feelings about themselves outside of the classroom. I avoid a one-size fits all approach to tutoring because I know that children have distinct learning styles. Thus, I seek to understand my students' strengths and motivations in order to capitalize on both in our work together. ."

" I was an English Literature major as an undergraduate at the University of Pennsylvania.
I love to read and write and I love helping others reach their full potential in these areas! I believe everyone can be excellent readers and writers, with the ability to read and write critically and analytically, once they learn the tools they need to succeed.
I have a test prep background, as I was an SAT Teacher as an undergraduate. I have succeeded in helping my students consistently get the best scores they can."

" I have consistently played the role of a student mentor throughout high school and my undergraduate experience. My main objective when guiding students, whether their goal is to determine a fitting career path, ace an in-class exam, or prepare for a grueling standardized test, is to instill self-confidence in them. I try to not only help them develop lifelong critical-thinking skills, but also urge them to assertively believe in their personal abilities. If students dedicate themselves fully to the task at hand and have the genuine desire to succeed, then I think they can accomplish almost anything. During my junior and senior year at ...

"Through tutoring, I can positively impact a student's academic career. After achieving professional success in information technology and management, I moved to New York City to pursue a new career in comedy. Being a tutor allows me to share the knowledge I gained through my educational and professional pursuits. When I teach, I first try to understand how the student is being taught in the classroom so I can adjust my approach to complement information from the student's other academic influences.."

" I have my Bachelors degree from the University of Michigan and I just received my Master degree in Childhood and Special Education from NYU. As an elementary teacher, I understand how important it is for students to get that individual attention that they may not always get in the classroom (despite their teacher's best intentions). In classrooms these days, it is easy for a child to slip back and not reach their fullest potential--not with me! I am fully dedicated to make sure that each of my students reaches their highest potential, no matter where they stand academically. Through my teaching experience, I have had the chance to teach a ...

"I love tutoring one-on-one because I can get to know students and gear the lessons toward their interests, which helps them learn more quickly, retain new skills better, and enjoy the tutoring sessions more. I particularly enjoy teaching science, writing, and test prep. 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!." ...

"I tutored Spanish and Biology in High School, and at Brandeis University, I expanded my repertoire and taught some French, Chemistry, Anatomy, and Physiology. I hope to become a pediatrician not just because of the fancy doctor title, but because I genuinely want to help kids in need, especially those who grew up underprivileged, much like myself. My tutoring style is very hands on. I like evaluating problem areas for students and helping them with those while strengthening areas that they're more comfortable in. When I tutor, I try my best to place myself in my student’s shoes so that I can see where the problems lie and how we can tackle ...

"I am committed to making a mark that cannot be erased, locally and globally. Math is not about memorizing rules and procedures, its actual logic built into our everyday lives... from the arch of a bridge to the coordinates of the street to the mass transit system... without mathematics none of the above would be possible."
