Award-Winning ACT Tutors in Albany County, NY

...because I wanted a job doing the things that I love: learning new topics and helping others. My goal is to not only have students successfully learn information, but additionally, I want them to feel confident about their work. I have been a tutor for four years now. I began tutoring middle school math my freshman year of high school, and later I tutored Regents Earth Science through National Honors Society in my senior year....

...tutor for a scientific writing class, in which I led workshops and gave students feedback on their papers. When working with students, I think that patience, dedication, and understanding are essential. I know how stressful and frustrating it can be as a student to struggle with a concept, and having someone who was willing to take the time and really explain it to me until I understood it was invaluable. As a tutor, I'll help...

...at the National Building Museum as a museum teacher. Since graduating from my masters program I have worked in various DC museums doing public programming. My tutoring ranges from history, both US and world, English, writing, and grammar to elementary and middle school math and Algebra 1 and 2. I love to learn and want to share that with my students. Beyond helping my students better understand subject matter, I want to help my students...

...in various capacities. Currently, I am a teaching assistant at the University at Albany and before that, I worked with younger children struggling in math and science. I enjoy connecting with students to help find a way for them to not only understand the material, but to be able to use that material and apply it to their learning for years to come. It is important to me that each student makes academic goals and...

...looking to aid as many people as possible through the joys of education. I had my introduction to tutoring several years ago, when I taught a child with a disability through eighth grade. That experience gave me the utmost respect for all of our children who are learning, no matter how hard their struggle may seem from our perspective. I am a well-rounded individual, graduating high school at sixteen and obtaining my undergraduate degree at...

...interactive and interesting methods. My favorite thing about tutoring is helping people understand why what they are learning is important. Once you know why you learn something you are much more inclined to focus and challenge yourself with it. I believe education is vital in the world today but more importantly having a desire and wanting to learn is significantly more important. I make it my goal to encourage students to become independent learners.... I believe...

...working with students in diverse subjects. In high school I volunteered every day after school to help underclassmen who were struggling in English and History and in preparing for the SAT. Since then, I've taught both English and French to language exchange partners - we sit down and I teach them my language for an hour, and then they teach me their language for an hour. My tutoring philosophy is that I'm not here to...

...I started teaching SAT and ACT test prep to pay for the portions of my college tuition that my academic scholarships didn't cover (and so I didn't have to eat ramen noodles every night). I have taught SAT/ACT prep for over 10 years and was one of the highest rated tutors (based on student satisfaction and test score increases) when I worked for a large company. I spent four years teaching at an all-boys Title...

...I am most passionate about understanding how people learn. I am a college professor in upstate New York where I teach history, political science, philosophy and psychology. I am an assessment and online learning specialist. As a graduate of the College of Saint Rose with my Masters degree in adolescent education, I taught high school prior to moving through the ranks to Assistant Professor. I am passionate about teaching and literacy. I love reading, and...

...education since 2017. I am a strong believer in the power of education and in particular literacy. I worked for 2.5 years teaching reading and math groups in a public school. I am very successful at engaging students and reframing any subject to help meet a student's personal learning needs and goals. In addition to my strong advocacy of literacy, I also have a strong love for the power of math and numbers. I know...
