" During graduate school, I taught German 101, 102 and 103. My primary goal for students is to use motivation for learning, meaning that I try to find materials that are motivating as motivation is the the essential ingredient for true learning. As far as language learning goes, my basic approach is to balance input and output: listening/reading and speaking/writing. I look forward to teaching you!."

"This past spring, I completed a Master’s in International Affairs, with a concentration in Social and Economic Development. Over the summer I spent 8 weeks working with students in a rural village in Ghana as part of ThinkImpact's Innovation Institute.

"A great tutor can see outside the box and be flexible enough to explain the same concept in a variety of ways, depending on the needs of the student. A tutor must be more personable with the student than a classroom teacher, who to a certain degree, must hide behind a teaching persona. Lastly, in addition to speaking with the utmost clarity, a great tutor must have excellent listening skills.."

" I currently assist students in Liberal Arts Studies through the Writing Center at the Juilliard School, and I continue to teach lessons in music. My enthusiasm for working with students continues to grow as I meet more capable, intelligent young people who often just need insight into how to tackle the mass of material they receive in the classroom. My background is as a classically trained singer, and I know first-hand the value of seeking the best help to improve one’s skills.

"During college, I started tutoring students in German and Spanish as well, especially in grammar. At this point in time I realized I could help students in both of those languages. In addition I have taken Spanish grammar courses at Montclair State University, thanks to which I have been able to help my fellow classmates.

"Students at top high schools like Stuyvesant and Brooklyn Tech are especially engaging to work with, due to the challenging nature of the material and the lively mind of the student. In addition to my own tutoring practice, I've also been director of a non-profit tutoring center. Under my administration we tracked students' scores and attained the highest average grade increase in the program's history. By guiding other tutors and consulting students for feedback on their experience, I got a very keen sense of what works and what doesn't." ...

" Again, my main subject area is math, but I have a strong background in a wide array of other fields and, having worked two years writing workbooks for the test, am particularly well qualified for tutoring for the SAT. My teaching style is highly customized to the student(s) I'm working with: my main goal is always to make him or her feel as comfortable as possible. But beyond that--unless we're quickly nearing a standardized test date and fundamental understanding is temporarily less of a priority than scoring well--I always make sure that students really comprehend the topics they're dealing with and not just "going through the ...
