Award-Winning ACT English Tutors in New Haven, CT

...home from our school in the Bronx we had to complete 'Mom's homework' after our own schoolwork as a matter of course. 'Mom's homework' was our way into the best private schools in the northeast. My own children - my autistic son and my intellectually gifted daughter - did 'Mom's homework' as well, which enabled them to reach their own intellectual bests. I believe that children have exactly one chance at a good education track....

...tutor anyone else in it. In fact, my first creative writing class I took at Middlebury, my professor told me that writing was not my strong suit. I was discouraged. Frustrated, even. But not to the point that I wanted to quit. Rather, I wanted to be better. I wanted to prove myself; to show my professor that I could, in fact, write. The rest of the story is rather anti-climatic. There was no inspired...

I get that writing essays and studying for midterms is rarely interesting, but it's my goal to make tutoring sessions as fun as possible. As a Senior Literature and History double major at Yale, I have a wide breadth of knowledge in a lot of different subjects, and I'm happy to share my knowledge in any of them!... I get that not everybody wants to spend their free time working on Calculus problems, but if a student has decided to get a tutor, either because they think they could use the extra help, or just because they want to get ahead in school, I think that's amazing, and I'd like to do my best to make their work as fun as possible.

By allowing my patient and positive attitude to play a role in my tutoring sessions, I hope to...

...where I taught Spanish to ninth and tenth graders. My tutoring style is to convey to students that a foreign language does not have to be overwhelming if it is broken down into simple parts. My teaching philosophy is that I believe everyone approaches learning differently and a tutor should understand the student's learning style. I try to pinpoint the root of any learning difficulties so we can work together to overcome those difficulties and...

...Philosophy. I was a math tutor in high school and am looking forward to being a tutor again! I tutor a broad range of subjects; I studied math in college, but I'm also passionate about English.

In my free time I enjoy running, reading, listening to music, and making crafts with my friends.

...teaching, and I am currently teaching high school math in New York. My knowledge of mathematics comes from an interest in the social science research, a field I pursued in college and may return to in the future. I can also provide tutoring in French at every proficiency level, as I grew up in a French-speaking household in central Maine. My teaching style is relaxed and flexible. I am comfortable adjusting my plans on the...

...a BA in math so this stuff is fresh on my mind. Even though I am a young guy I have a lot of experience tutoring especially in math. I was raised in New York so I know how crazy and stressful these regents can be and I know how to beat them. I'm happy to be tutoring for Varsity and I'd be happy to tutor your kid if you'd like me to.... The best way to learn is to pretend to teach. Ultimately it is the student who has to be the one to understand these topics, so it is best if they can explain these things to themselves. So a student and I will go through the material together, then the student will "teach it back to me" with my help.
