Award-Winning AP Physics 1 Tutors serving Mount Vernon, NY

Hello! I have extensive experience tutoring students in SAT/ACT prep, AP test prep, writing and reading comprehension, and math. As a tutor, I make it my priority to focus on each specific problem while also making sure that the student understands the broader concepts as a whole. In high school I tutored my sports teammates as well as younger students who needed assistance editing and workshopping essays. I am currently enrolled as an applied accounting...

...mathematics as well. I personally retain information better when I can see the elaborate underpinnings of the world around us, and I think I bring that same philosophy to my tutoring sessions. If a student is having difficulty grasping a concept, I will try to reduce it to its simplest terms, so that he/she can follow the threads on their own to unravel the solution. Academics aside, I love music. Since 2006, I've played guitar...

...Math (Algebra, Trig, Calculus). I also enjoy tutoring for Standardized Tests. My formal teaching and tutoring experience includes working as a physics teaching assistant for three semesters, tutoring basic math and statistics to incarcerated individuals through the Cornell Prison Education Program for two semesters, and instructing an MCAT (Medical College Admissions Test) Preparation course through Examkrackers for a semester (which included the Biological Sciences, Organic Chemistry, Physics, Chemistry, and Verbal Reasoning).

I graduated with a Bachelors degree in Applied Physics from Emory University before receiving my Masters in Mechanical Engineering from Georgia Tech. During my time at Georgia Tech I was able to serve as a graduate teaching assistant, holding office hours, assisting students with assignments, and even preparing and teaching a handful of classes. As an engineer I've always enjoyed math and science, but understanding their applications is truly what has inspired me. My goal...

...This experience reinforced my belief that learning should be fun, dynamic, and inspiring. Growing up, I often found studying overwhelming and struggled with my grades.

There are many things to learn about the world, and seeing those things first hand is an experience...

...deep understanding and confidence in educating in mathematics, introductory chemistry and physics. This sounds all wonderful, but how does it translate to the student? Basically, in all my school and teaching experience I've learned how to study for tests and write tests and I've learned how to share my understanding with students. (This means I've become keenly aware of what material needs to be reviewed multiple times and thoroughly understood prior to a test). Additionally,...
