Carefully selected, highly-credentialed Statistics tutors in Port Washington, NY
"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. My experience as a teacher gives me the ability to point out mistakes that are commonly made and determine the root cause of careless errors. By filling in any gaps in a student's fundamentals, I can provide them with the proper building blocks for success. I use real life examples that help the student personalize and understand difficult concepts, and I work to build their confidence, which is critical to success in math.." ...

"I particularly enjoy teaching science, writing, and test prep. With test prep I've found that supplemental work on fundamental skills helps students improve their scores much more than working through a test prep book alone. Watching students develop confidence in their abilities and improve their performance makes my tutoring sessions some of the best hours of my week!."

So I believe in being versatile in my teaching methods and approach with my students, as they are each their own person."

" I like to approach subjects from different angles, as I think that it's important to not only learn the material for a specific subject, but to also discover which techniques and methods of learning work best for you or your child. In discovering how you best learn, you can improve your understanding and performance in all subjects! I started my tutoring journey in 7th grade, when I tutored my slightly older friend for the Math B Regents. Seeing her excitement when she figured out a new concept is what inspired me to continue helping others in their educational endeavors. I tutored various people since then, helping them with subjects such ...

" My previous tutoring experience has taught me one thing above all else: everybody learns differently, and effective teachers are the ones who can adapt. This is what I do for all my students.

I have recently relocated to the Upper West Side after completing my M.S. at Stanford in August. As an undergrad, I scored a 790/800 on the GRE quantitative reasoning test (the SAT's bigger, meaner brother)."
