Carefully selected, highly-credentialed Pre-Calculus tutors in Rye, NY
"I found that the presence of the language barrier made it all the more essential to be able to break down what was being taught into the most easily understandable and digestible form. It also taught me to be able to explain concepts in many different ways. Before that, I tutored several different students in math and science at both the middle and high school levels. Personally, I get a great deal of satisfaction out of finally grasping difficult mathematical concepts, and I love helping those who aren't quite as intuitive math students feel that as well. I look forward to helping your child succeed!." ...

"
I learned how to convey key points to students in a clear and concise manner. I often interspersed real world examples of class material while tutoring students in order to bolster their interest and understanding of the subject matter as well as reduce the burden of memorization. I worked hard to establish good rapport with my students. Consequently, I tutored many students who were too intimidated to seek extra help from the professor of the class."

"I am especially passionate about teaching math - I want the next generation to love math as much as I do. My teaching style is creative, collaborative, and interdisciplinary. After I get to know a student on a personal level, I craft lessons that cater to the student's interests and personal learning style to engage them and make the learning more relevant and meaningful. I often integrate subjects to enhance learning - for instance, I teach math using visual tools (drawing, manipulatives, role play) in order to make the abstract more tangible and accessible. My 4th grade class was the highest performing class in math in the entire grade ...

"I believe that lasting knowledge comes from understanding, and that understanding is achieved when you can accurately visualize a concept in your mind. I combine a multi-sensory teaching style with vivid real world examples to help students truly understand their subject and apply it to their lives in a fun and exciting way. My students succeed because I teach them to balance school work and recreation. I believe it is important to take breaks and reward yourself when you progress, in order to allow your brain to properly process and the store the information.." ...

" When I am not busy with school or leisure, I will be helping you or your child grasp a difficult subject or improve a test score. I encourage my students to talk me through their thought process when tackling a problem, so that I can pinpoint exactly what is preventing them from arriving at the right solution. While getting the right answer is important in life, and especially on tests, my time at MIT and NYU Poly has taught me that fostering the analytical thinking skills required to arrive at the answer yourself are much more valuable life skills. On account of my background in engineering and the life sciences, my areas of expertise run the ...

"The result was a chorus of engaged, knowledgable singers equipped with the tools for a future as a music lover and maker. I have experience in both Math/Science and the Humanities. At Yale, I studied Philosophy of Science, focusing on the intersection of physics and philosophy (my senior essay explored the knowability of the direction of time, and incorporated findings from wave-physics), and took numerous courses in literature and writing. But perhaps most of all, what makes me a great tutor is my sheer love of teaching."

"
I believe that all students can be successful and I work hard to push students to further their understanding, whether they are struggling students or honor students. Parental involvment and support is essential and I work hard to keep parents up to date with their students progress.
My most recent tutoring experience was tutoring high school students in public speaking and consitutional debate. I enjoy working with students and in my free time I enjoy watching sports and being outdoors.."

" Some of my students who "hated" reading and writing now devour books (or at least magazines) and churn out masterful essays when they have to. Others who "couldn't" study find they have a new drive after I relate to them about overcoming my own challenges with time management and discipline. It's not easy forming a connection between getting a great score on a standardized test and doing the things we actually want to be doing months or years later, and maybe it's bizarre that we have to, but it's there- or you wouldn't be looking for a tutor! The best compliment I've consistently received from students and parents is that I actually make this ...
