" Tutoring experience includes working with Grades K-6 in all areas, including study skills as well as organizational skills. I believe in teaching skills that your child will be able to carry with him/her through all their years of schooling, allowing them to be as successful and independent as possible. My teaching style is relaxed and incorporates a sense of humor; tutoring can be fun and not approached as "working overtime" for your child.."

" In every subject, I will make important content accessible by adapting to your learning style. I believe there are never more than a few silly mnemonics, clear diagrams, or concept reconfigurations between a student and a good understanding of tough material. I’ll be there to find out what works for you! A little about me: After attending Harvard as an undergraduate, I decided to defer law school in order to pursue another lifelong passion, dancing. I am currently dancing professionally with New York Theatre Ballet, but missed the particular rigor of a scholastic environment, and, of course, students! Prior to working for NYTB, I ...

I don't expect you to geek out to the degree that I do, but enthusiasm is contagious and it's my job to make sure that you enjoy learning! I was one of those kids who never had to try or study and still got As all through high school. I was in for a big surprise in college. The circumstances that allowed me to succeed through grade 12 changed when I went to university." ...

"I have worked with severely autistic students and emotional disturbed students as well. As a teacher in District 75, I have learned several different teaching strategies that helped my students meet many of their IEP goals. Being that I have a vast background in working with students with disabilities, I have strategies that help both general education students as well as students with disabilities. Giving a student the techniques, strategies and skill to help them succeed in life is most rewarding."

"I was also the managing editor of the student newspaper, where I trained first-year students in hands-on editing for style, content, and factual accuracy. Currently, I'm gearing up to apply for graduate programs in sociology. I emphasize that a student always has the tools to succeed and improve right in front of him or her--it's simply a matter of knowing how to use those tools. When you break processes down into simple, concrete steps, everything from ACT/SAT prep to complicated analytical essays becomes doable and even genuinely fun.." ...

"Both opportunities gave me the chance to work with, mentor, and educate peers on curricular and co-curricular studies. Sharing my love of reading and writing is a great thrill of mine and I feel honored to get such an opportunity to do so. In terms of academia, my dual degree lent me the chance to hone my communications skills (I now work full time at a television production company focusing on documentary-style TV) as well as my skills in English. As a result, I became well-educated in both classic literature as well as contemporary literary theory focusing on a variety of topics such as gender, media, class and social structure, and an ...

" In addition, I have been a supplemental education provider, an SAT proctor and prep class teacher, and currently teach chess to first- through fifth-graders. I enjoy words, word games, reading, mathematics, discovering new things, staying in shape, and sharing what I have learned with others. I am a fan of classic television sit-coms, music from various genres, and my often-hapless yet always-loved New York Mets. I enjoy a good joke or pun, and am frequently ready with one for whomever is willing to listen. In short, I love teaching and having fun, and I know your student and I will enjoy working together." ...
