Carefully selected, highly-credentialed Geometry tutors in Manhasset, NY
"I have taught in France, Africa, and in Boston, and I am especially passionate about language tutoring (French, Latin), although I also love teaching math, writing, and helping students through the college admissions process (including SAT prep). I have a critical-thinking-focused approach to teaching; that is, I focus on helping my students understand the concepts and frameworks underlying their most difficult assignments, and I try to improve their study habits and problem solving strategies. Outside of the realm of teaching, I also love sports and music. I was a two sport varsity athlete in college and also have spent three ...

"Any level and topic of Mathematics is fun and exciting for me and I enjoy inspiring my students to feel the same way. I also have some experience with gifted children, or kids who are preparing for the Math olympiads or competitions. I am a Ph.D. candidate at Stony Brook University and my research focuses on Game Theory which is a topic at the heard of Economics/Mathematics. In the past decade (including this year) a significant number of Nobel Prize winners in Economics have been Game Theorists! Many of these Nobel Prize winners regularly visit Stony Brook every summer. In my spare time I like solving Math puzzles, drawing (either from real ...

"I moved to New York to study drawing and architecture, but my passion for education remains. I believe that students need to learn how to ask the right questions so that they can navigate the increasingly sophisticated world around them. This belief informs my teaching style; I act as a guide for students rather than someone dispensing information. Nothing is more enjoyable than the look on a student's face when he or she has just realized that he or she can solve a problem without anyone's help."

" I have taught all levels of math, from basic math skills classes to AP Calculus and AP Statistics. I am currently teaching Algebra 2/Trigonometry. My tutoring style is highly strategic and effective; I am constantly analyzing a student's comprehension of the given material to best determine how to facilitate understanding. My tutoring approach emphasizes asking questions rather than providing answers so that students will be able to figure out new problems outside of our sessions."

" I BELIEVE THAT ANY STUDENT CAN MASTER THESE CONCEPTS, REGARDLESS OF HOW THEY CURRENTLY FEEL ABOUT THEIR MATHEMATICAL ABILITIES OR INTEREST LEVEL, SO LONG AS THEY HAVE TWO THINGS: 1. A desire to learn the material (a desire to survive the course or test will do) 2. A teacher who is creative enough to understand how the student thinks, and can adapt lessons into the student's "own language" accordingly IF YOU BRING THE FORMER, I’LL BRING THE LATTER. My previous tutoring experience has taught me one thing above all else: everybody learns differently, and effective teachers are the ones who can adapt." ...

"I’m a recent Brown University MFA graduate with an undergraduate degree from the University of Texas at Austin, and I’ve just recently moved to New York City.
I like to keep things fun and break any and all problems / assignments down to their simplest forms. The simplest form is usually the foundation to it all.
I have taught and/or tutored students from 3rd to 12th grade and taught at public high schools as well as private elementary programs. I love working with students of all ages."

"One of my mentor teachers was fond of saying, "Teach the child, not the subject", meaning that the student comes first - before the curriculum, before the test scores, before the tutor. I've learned to incorporate this ideology into my own teaching practice by differentiating instruction for each of my students. I develop a rapport, meet students where they're at, and teach them the literacy and problem solving skills they need to become life-long learners. Once a student knows how to learn, whole new worlds open for them and the actual material is a matter of course.." ...

"Having founded a youth program and partnership in my hometown, youth education, advocacy and empowerment comprise one of my greater passions. As a graduate student, I have had opportunities to design and implement a high school education and leadership institute led by a team of underclassmen whom I trained as the institutes main instructors and coordinators. Likewise, I have recently developed my own curricula for education programs such as Trinity Repertory Co.’s education department and YASI summer program (grades 4-12), as well as the Project Contemporary Competitiveness Advanced Studies Program at Stonehill College.
