Carefully selected, highly-credentialed tutors in White Plains, NY
" During my time at college, I volunteered as a tutor at an after-school program with elementary students, and I also tutored students individually in their classrooms for several of my Education classes. When I tutor, I try to get to know the student first before delving directly into the material, so that the student comes to trust me, and so that I get a better feel for the student's interests and individual learning style. I think it's important to remember that everyone learns differently, and I try to cater my tutoring techniques to the specific student's learning style. I am dedicated to helping each student reach his/her full ...

"The reason why I enjoy tutoring so much is that I get to act as a catalyst in creating a smarter society where students will go on to solve the world's biggest problems in health, education, economy, etc. My tutoring experience started in high school with SAT prep for a group of 3-5 students that needed help (the students attended the same high school as me at the time). Later, I moved on to tutoring students in a more structured environment in subjects involving biology, physics, and more advanced mathematics such as calculus. Although I do follow a very straightforward curriculum, my teaching style is more adaptive than it is rigid." ...

"I have been a mathematics tutor at all levels for 5 years and take great pride in helping individuals in not only succeeding in mathematics, but developing an interest in the subject.
There is nothing more fulfilling then providing knowledge to another individual and watching them succeed. My main goal as a educator is not only to improve student's academics, but to give them attributes that will help them to succeed in life.
I look forwarded to working with you and always remember that with confidence comes success!."

" My degree is from NYU, where I double majored in Mathematics and East Asian Studies. I have taught languages, especially English, for a long time in many different classroom settings and countries. I like teaching languages because I also enjoy learning them! In addition to English, I speak Russian, French, Chinese, and Spanish. I know that sometimes grammar or pronunciation can be difficult for students, but having worked with many different students of different levels over the years, I know how to explain language concepts and help students improve both their language level and study skills." ...

"I taught group ESL lessons, with a wide range of abilities, for kids aged 5 - 14. Engaging the campers in games, both outdoor and indoor, as well as projects and inter-active assignments was key for keeping tutoring sessions fun while also developing language skills. I have also tutored individuals in French and English, primarily aiding them after school with homework help, but also teaching new and more challenging concepts to keep them ahead of their class. As someone who was tutored in math all throughout high school, I can really relate to both sides of the tutoring process! I am a very patient and dedicated individual and I am ...

" My focus was on international relations and concentrated on the People's Republic of China. 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."
