Award-Winning ACT Science Tutors in Paterson, NJ

...with students, and I have a younger sister who is still in high school (and we're very close!), so I am eager to work with students of her age. My specialties are English, Math (all levels up to and including Calculus), and test prep. I (think) that I am one of the few people who actually enjoys math, so I'd be happy to try to pass on my enthusiasm to your student. I'd also be...

...first trained as a tutor. Ever since I have been tutoring Math, Chemistry and standardized tests. Tutoring is a pleasure to me, I particularly enjoy helping students reach that 'aha' moment, where they gain an insight into a particular concept. As of January 2012 I have tutored more than 20 students for a total of nearly 500 hours. In the future I will be attending graduate school in Chemistry, and will later continue as an...

...and re- drafting English essays, and am truly passionate about helping students achieve their potential. I specialize in biology, math and English for success in school or the SAT and ACT exams. With each student I encourage them to consider the problem in new ways and to think outside of their comfort zone. I believe that doing so is imperative to the learning process, whether we are working on a difficult problem or trying to...

...relate to them about overcoming my own challenges with time management and discipline. It's not easy forming a connection between getting a great score on a standardized test and doing the things we actually want to be doing months or years later, and maybe it's bizarre that we have to, but it's there- or you wouldn't be looking for a tutor! The best compliment I've consistently received from students and parents is that I actually...

...and Masters in environmental engineering, four years of industry experience and five years as a professional sailor, I have a lot of appreciation for how the world around us works. From the simple process of doubling a recipe, to finding the optimum angle between wind and current to win a sailing race, to deeper questions about the workings of the cosmos, I hope to help students understand and internalize just how important (and useful!) an...

...of Alabama Birmingham. I am currently pursuing a Masters of Fine Arts in Design for Social Innovation. I have tutored middle school and high school students for over 10 years. My tutoring subjects include Math, Science, and ACT prep. When I tutor, I like to get to know my students, understand their frustrations, and also set realistic goals. My favorite subject to tutor is math because I like to see students finally get it! Outside...

...with dozens of real SAT tests and SAT format-specific strategies. While a tutor, and later general manager, at a boutique university admissions consulting company in Cairo Egypt, I applied my teaching experience to a leading role developing SAT curricula for a variety of skill levels. Though I have played a number of roles as an educator, I take a special pleasure in prepping students for the SAT. It is a fundamentally understandable test with a...

...help students understand, that these tests are a means to an end. It is wonderful to know that I've played a role in helping students achieve their goals. Having spent many years mentoring teenagers, through extensive volunteer work, and raising three of my own, I understand the stresses and difficulties of this time in a student's and parent's life. Former tutoring clients tell me that I have been a calming influence during this difficult time.

...students were able to comprehend. As a tutor, I was very successful in improving students' grades in high school math and physics and obtained high ratings from students and parents. In addition, I scored 800 in GRE math, and can tutor on the SAT or GRE as well. I greatly enjoy teaching math and physics and believe patience and trying to give depth to students' knowledge are keys to being a great tutor. I look...

...of their strengths and addresses their weaknesses, so that on test day they’ll earn their highest possible score. Outside of the SAT/ACT, my areas of strength are in reading, writing, language (Latin), and history. I believe that learning is an inherently enjoyable experience, and while I demand a lot of my students, I make sure that my tutoring sessions are engaging and fun. When it comes to my students, I believe that his or her...
