Carefully selected, highly-credentialed SSAT tutors in Glen Cove, NY
"I've since tutored most high school, college, and graduate school entrance exams. I've worked with students of all ages on grade-level studies in math, science, the humanities and foreign languages. 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."

"
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. I am very familiar with the school systems and have developed my own teaching approach that leaves the students that I work with feeling a sense of accomplishment and ownership of the material."

" My years at Princeton developed my passion for human rights, and also solidified my desire to help others. During my senior year, I researched and compared the educational systems and conditions faced by Chinese migrant children and those faced by undocumented children in America.
As a long time athlete, I understand the value of coaching and teamwork. This is reflected in my tutoring; I believe that creating a dynamic partnership between student and tutor allows for even greater and more sustained success than teaching alone.."

"I've taught middle school students basic and advanced algebra, geometry, and trigonometry, as well as tutored high school students on Precalculus and Calculus. I have equally strong experience teaching and tutoring all three sections of the SAT. What makes me a great tutor is my ability to empathize with the needs of each of my tutees and help them figure out how they best learn the material. My proficiency in the subject and strong teaching background are two different skills; combined together, they make me an understanding and efficient tutor. In my free time, I love meditating, swimming, and checking out museums (especially ...

"I have been a private tutor for the last 10 years now in Math (through Pre-Calculus), Literature (American, British, grammar), SAT I (Math, Verbal, Writing), and SAT II (Math I and II, Literature). Before moving to New York, I ran a private tutoring company based out of Rhode Island where I created curricula for various standardized exams (ISEE, SSAT, SAT I and II, ACT, MAT, GRE); I also offered college admissions guidance. I believe that the most important part of any tutor-student relationship is the ability for each to relate to the other; the tutor must be able to relate to the student relevant information that makes the material ...

"I am a huge math and science lover and would love to share my enthusiasm with everyone! I can provide solid help with lower level math and up to higher levels of biology (AP Biology) and some chemistry (Gen. Chem). In the past I have worked with elementary school aged children as well as high school peers! While at UNC I tutored at a human rights center, which helped elementary school students with homework, test prep etc. In addition while a calculus student in high school, I had the privilege of tutoring a few students in pre-calculus and Algebra and absolutely loved it! These students all ended the class with A's. On another note, as a future ...
