Award-Winning ACT Reading Tutors in Hempstead, NY

...am passionate about working with students because I love learning, myself. I enjoy one-on-one sessions because we can take our time, enjoy the process, and I can focus on each student's individual needs. My strongest subjects are English (reading, comprehension, writing, sentence structure, parts of speech/figurative language, grammar, etc.), Literature (essays, poetry, critical thinking, etc.), and Psychology (AP psychology, abnormal psychology, sociology, etc.). I also have success in test preparation, especially for Critical Reading and...

...private schools my whole life because I was awarded academic scholarships based off of academic performances. In high school, my average for the math regents was a 98.67. After that I received an academic scholarship to attend the University of Notre Dame where I really developed a passion for teaching and enlightening students in my free time, despite being a finance major. I decided that instead of teaching/tutoring, I should work for corporate America, and...

...a student perform for a test or even whole course. That's only goal one. I aim for a tutoring environment which generates discussion, and proposes solutions, in which students think critically about the content at hand, ask their own questions, and exercise ways to find their own answers. Learning in this manner allows students to better face future challenges, and think critically about topics in and out of academia. I look forward to working with...

...we were really doing in English class. When dissecting literature, I thought to myself, "did the author really mean to include that symbol? Why are we spending so much time talking about it?" I also had difficulty coming up with original thesis statements because, again, I wasn't entirely sure why we were writing thesis statements about books in the first place. Weren't books meant to be enjoyed? After studying English in college and after teaching...

...from Brooklyn, New York. Having always had a love of school and learning, I initially began tutoring as a way to gain community service hours but then realized that it meant more to me. As both a general homework and specialized reading tutor (trained in administering DIBELS and differentiated reading instruction), I have a wide array of experience with different subjects. I can't wait to get involved with Varsity and continue making a difference!

My student teaching experience was at Kings Park High School, 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...

...call English. I believe that the English language is the most creative creole to ever be created. Through the inspiration of languages before it, English offers us an advanced understanding of our history, and propels us toward our future. In my approach to tutoring, I enjoy learning about the individual; not only the student. In order to understand the educational needs of each student, I must first understand each person. I enjoy using culturally relevant...

...level for the past seven years. After college, where I obtained my bachelor's degree in English and Creative Writing in order to gain a new, fresh perspective on liberal arts culture and the humanities, I realized my academic focus was better suited for the study and education associated with math. I've loved math ever since grade school, and I found myself actually looking forward to coming home and doing my math homework! I soon realized...

...(B.A., 2010). I then received an M.A. (2012) and an M.Phil. (2014) in philosophy at Columbia. As a PhD student at Columbia, I served as teaching assistant for or taught numerous courses in these fields. I also taught in the university's pre-college program 2017-2023.
