Award-Winning ACT Reading Tutors in Long Island, NY

I've been a professional tutor for the past ten years and a college instructor for the past four years. I have my masters degree in philosophy and hope to enroll in a PhD program in philosophy by Fall 2017. In my free time I enjoy stand-up comedy, strategy/RPG video games, and science fiction.... I believe that the goal of tutoring is to create life-long independent learners and that it is the tutor’s job to provide encouragement...

...years of teaching and tutoring under my belt. I have gained experience in literacy and social studies from the Chicago Public Schools, Los Angeles Public Schools, and New York City Public Schools. I consider myself a life long learner. I have a master's degree and am currently working on my doctorate in K-12 educational leadership and policy. When working with students, I love to use materials that can bridge the gap between content and current...

Pleasure to meet you. I will try to provide you the best tutoring service possible.

...one of individualized attention and goal setting, where the tutor and the student work together to set realistic goals, and then identify the roadblocks preventing the student from achieving his or her goal. We then work together to surmount these obstacles, allowing the student to actualize his or her goal. I also try to identify the source of a student's obstacles, and work to solve these fundamental issues as well. I am a big believer...

...their full potential. So, students and parents, I hope you will look to me for my many years of experience teaching and advising, for help with my strongest specific topic areas - Writing, English, Philosophy, and the Social Sciences - but also as someone who strives to empower a student globally, and someone who always gives every one of my students the greatest specific attention to their needs as possible across the full range of...

...my favorites are Statistics, Mathematics, and Computer Science. I did not discover my passion for these subjects until college (I was admitted to Columbia as pre-law for my writing), and I wish I had been exposed to the fun aspects of these subjects at younger age. Often we are discouraged from science and math while young by phrases like "I'm just not a math person," when the reality is that everybody learns math differently. These...

...believe learning is about finding the right methods for you! I like to work with a student's individual style to help approach the areas where they need help. I studied environmental sociology, and have always enjoyed an array of interests - if we can see how information and different subjects can be applied to your future goals, it really helps get through the tough subjects now! I look forward to working with you!

...and I'm currently a junior at Columbia studying Applied Math. My approach to tutoring is bottoms-up and about understanding why things are right rather than just memorizing answers. Alongside math, I'm passionate about bioengineering, finance/investing, the tech industry, and cooking! I'm a published and award winning writer, 3x published scientific researcher, and I'm hoping to become a certified pilates instructor on the side. I'm excited about tutoring across subjects, but I can be especially helpful...

...college level Biology and Physics and expanded from there to tutoring high school students in preparation for college and standardized tests. I have had a lot of great experiences from working one-on-one with students especially because private tutoring usually enables students to stay more focused and feel more comfortable addressing their concerns. I believe every student is fully capable of being successful and reaching their goals but with the right mindset, approach, and attitude towards...

My passion for education has guided me through five fruitful years of tutoring.

...creative and literary subjects since Fall 2020. I graduated from Brown University with a Bachelors in Fine Art and have an independent studio practice. I am available to work with students of all ages for English Language Arts (ELA), including reading and reading comprehension, creative and analytical writing, and adjacent sections of standardized tests. I also offer guidance in studio art, art history, theater. I'm here to provide support and motivation for my students, and...

...of the Varsity Tutors team where I can share my passion for math and help students reach their academic goals! I earned my Bachelor of Science in mechanical engineering at the University of Connecticut. However, it was back in grade school when I first discovered my passion for math. I now have 13 years of experience tutoring math, science and test prep. Math is so much easier with a good teacher. Let me help you.

I am a graduate of The Hotchkiss School, a college preparatory boarding school in Connecticut and a current student at Barnard College, majoring in Economics and minoring in Environmental Science. I am passionate about working with Elementary and Middle School students and particularly enjoy tutoring Math and Spanish. I believe in the importance of tailoring tutoring styles to fit the needs and learning styles of my students.

...tutoring all levels of Biology and Chemistry, ACT prep, and AP English, History, and Science tests. There is something so rewarding about breaking down large, complex mechanisms and concepts into understandable parts. I approach every session with a clear goal for each student's needs - whether that is a specific problem or just general content review. I've strengthened my ability to identify specific obstacles and turn them into opportunities for growth and I emphasize active...

...looking to help students find the best learning and studying methods that work for them on an individual level! I love reading and especially history. As a student who struggled in math, I also love to work with students to develop strategies that work best for them! It is my genuine belief that everyone can be a lifelong learner if they are supported in their journey to understand their personal learning style!... My teaching philosophy is...

...math, robotics, science, and SAT prep. In my opinion, my tutoring expertise definitely falls on the STEM side, but I also have extensive experience working with reading and writing in terms of the standardized testing. I like to think that my teaching style varies widely between students, as I try my best to mold my plan around who I'm teaching. However, you'll often find me explaining not only how to understand a concept but its...

Greetings students, I am studying towards an Electrical Engineer BS degree and I have quite a few years of work with high school and college students from all backgrounds. I have assisted high school students in the "Big Buddy" program and college interns in the "Spring Forward" and "Career Launch" programs with Cuny experiential education. I am thrilled to meet you in our upcoming class.

I always love helping people grow and learn not only in academics, but also in life! I believe the best way to do so is by teaching what you already know, and learning from those you teach and those who teach you.

...extensive one-on-one and group class experience teaching both test preparation and general English, so I am easily able to adjust my teaching style to the given task. Moreover, my experience catering to students aged seven to forty-seven, each with different visual, auditory and kinaesthetic needs, has given me the pedagogical and curriculum-development skills needed to maximize the potential of any student. Please contact me if you are interested in setting up a tutoring session.

I am currently a junior at Barnard College majoring in Economics and Mathematics. With 3 years of experience in tutoring algebra, geometry, and calculus, I am committed to providing quality tutoring services to students!
