Award-Winning Algebra Tutors serving Plainfield, NJ

...lives of New York City school children and my belief in the importance of using emerging educational technologies to engage with and enrich the education of students, has made me both a successful teacher, and a popular tutor. While I have long believed that every student deserves and is capable of academic success, it was my time spent as a school teacher in East New York that most thoroughly convinced me of this fact. While...

...This kind of instruction can be overwhelming for some students. That's why I've dedicated myself as a tutor to reversing this trend, and encouraging students to recognize the skills they already have, and use them to solve new, bigger problems. I've worked with students as young as five years old, all the way to graduate students working on their post-doc's. I always bring a positive energy to tutoring sessions, and I try to inspire a...

I am a graduate of Phillips Academy and Columbia University. I received my bachelor's degree in Political Science specializing in International Relations and Women's and Gender. I have spent the past 10 years tutoring for a range of subjects from ages 3-24. My specialty lies in writing, college essay editing and SATs. Outside of tutoring, I spend my time traveling and solving my Rubik's cube.

...through IV, Biology, Physics, and Chemistry. I love helping students in math and science and it gives me a sense of satisfaction to see other people succeed. As the eldest of three I've helped my younger siblings in their studies and primarily use examples and analogies that they can understand and relate to in order to help them. Besides math and science, a few other things I love are research in my lab, football, basketball,...

...high school, I tutored kids in math and physics almost every day of the week. I love sharing my knowledge of these topics with others and watching them improve. I work hard to make sure the students I work with fully understand the concept at hand. I believe I have a unique way of teaching that really helps students to understand the topic. If the student is not satisfied and still does not understand the...

...improve a student's score just as much as knowing the subject material can. Different students learn in different ways but that kind of personal attention is difficult to provide in a classroom. With one on one tutoring sessions, any student can excel, even in the subjects he or she has the most trouble in. When I tutor a student, my first goal is to figure out the best way to teach this individual, as no...

...Calculus. However, chemistry was my first love and it remains my favorite subject to teach. I have always loved science. But what I enjoy most is helping young people learn. I believe what I do best is to help students understand the physical world that surrounds them. When I teach I focus on short lessons followed by "hands-on" student activities to reinforce the lesson. When I'm not teaching I enjoy outdoor activities like hiking, biking,...

...My tutoring style has always been to fit the lesson to the student. Whether you're studying for chemistry test or analyzing a work of literature, prepping for the SAT or the LSAT, I make sure to focus on your goals and how to reach them. I also aim to help my students really improve the knowledge of their subject along with their writing, reading, and analytic skills--not just get past the next exam.

I graduated from Columbia University in 2016 with a degree in applied mathematics. I work in finance now but have always had a passion for tutoring peers. I've been tutoring for standardized tests such as the SATs, AP subject tests, and ACTs since high school.

...students. My personal teaching philosophy is to lead my sessions with a student-based approach. As a current student myself, I understand the frustrations that we can encounter when working to learn a new subject, and I am committed to working with students to help them learn in the best way for them. Outside of school, I am on the dance team, I pursue neural engineering research, and I am the Assistant VP of Diversity, Equity,...

I am a lifelong learner, and I look forward to helping students with their studies as I work through my own. After graduating Princeton, I worked at a number of tech firms, including Google, but I've recently found myself back in the classroom as I prepare to pursue a PhD in Psychology.

I am a high school math teacher currently handling Geometry using the Common Core curriculum. I am also able to tutor in Algebra, Trigonometry, Precalculus and Calculus.

...and have always loved being able to spread my love for the subject with students. I have experience tutoring both individually and in small groups, and regardless of who I am working with, I ensure to prioritize the student's style of learning and make room for growth and change. I think it is crucial that students feel like their tutor is working alongside them, rather than feeling like a lecture or classroom. In my spare...

...I've coordinated and facilitated retreats for emerging adults, focusing on personal growth skills and political education. I tutor a broad range of subjects, but I'm most passionate about English, Literature, and History. I've recently (and successfully) tutored myself in test preparation skills, so I am also very prepared to tutor test-prep. In my experience as a tutor, I have a great track record helping students develop their interest in reading anything! I have a deep...

When I was in the ninth grade, one algebra tutor changed my whole perspective on mathematics and showed me that it wasn't as scary as I initially thought. Since then, I realized the power a teacher holds in shaping young minds, and I aim to do the same with my students. Additionally, I have approximately eight years of tutoring experience as well as two years of experience as a co-teacher in an elementary school.

...tutor students -- reach out to their needs and provide them the necessary groundwork to learn, all while showing them how much fun it is! I have tutored High School Mathematics (specifically Algebra 1 and Geometry) for over two years, and Philosophy (primarily in critical thinking and logic) for one and a half years. Mathematics has a very strong connection to Philosophy, thus I have learned to one to support the other, which better assists...

...the material and to try to inspire a desire to learn by making learning fun for them. I also really enjoy teaching general chemistry, because I find the material fascinating. When I tutor a student, I don't just give them the answers, but rather I guide them to the answers. It is important that a student learns how to find the answers themselves so they do not become dependent on outside sources.... I believe that to...

...was able to further develop with extra-curricular enrichment. One of the largest advantages of private tutoring is the increased engagement and attention between the student and material. I believe that fostering a love of mathematics is possible in any student and would be thrilled to help students both improve and become more excited about the subject. I was diagnosed with executive functioning issues while a high-school student, but was able to develop new study skills...

...was taking Calculus 3 and Differential Equations. For me, teaching has been a passion of mine ever since I was growing up. I always knew I wanted to help and educate others. I was always willing to go out of my way to make sure my friends and classmates understood everything. I dedicate myself 100% to the people I am helping and will not stop until they understand every single concept and topic.

...unfortunate many students don't feel like their professors or TAs don't actually give help. What I'm hoping to do as a tutor is to mend that gap a bit with a mutually beneficial interaction. I love tutoring most General Chemistry, Biochemistry, and International Relations type work. I have very strong depth and breadth in all these subjects, and always am willing to help students on these issues. I tutor best through example, either working through...
