Award-Winning AP US History Tutors serving Westchester, NY

...found a tutor who helped me reach my full potential and absolutely rock the test. Since then, I have not been intimidated by any exam in University or beyond, including the LSAT. I know I can instill this same confidence in other students by slowly highlighting insight into testing methodologies. By the end of our prep, your student will be able to use the strategies on any academic study in his or her future.

I look forward to helping students improve their test scores! I graduated from UC Berkeley and Columbia Law.

...ten AP exams and the PSAT with which I became a National Merit Scholar. I've learned that testing well requires as much skill as it does knowledge, and I look forward to helping students learn to recognize the type of questions testers create so that they can better figure out how to find the right answer. In my free time, I like sewing (very poorly), yoga, soccer, and pining after various adoptable animals around the...

Hello, my name is Brandon and I'm a graduate of St. Thomas Aquinas College. My tutoring style is very hands on and diagram based. In the sciences, concepts can be very difficult so breaking down concepts into smaller pieces works best.

...prep, but my personal favorite is tutoring Chemistry. It is my favorite subject to learn, so helping others understand it allows me to solidify my own knowledge of it. My approach to tutoring anything, especially the harder subjects, is to always use relatable examples or metaphors to strike a connection in a student's mind. The more relatable a hard concept feels, the better it can be understood. Outside of tutoring, I love going on hikes,...

...lacking in their understanding. I easily identify the learning style unique to each student and can teach to suit his or her needs. I am able to tell quickly how a particular student thinks and best learns, and from there I can either make the lessons more game-like or memory based.

When asked for my motto, one must live by, "education must not be taught as one size fits all." In fact, it should be tailored daily to support the needs of the...

...for my students- especially when I see the "light bulb" go off in someone's head and a concept that has been giving difficulties is finally understood! My teaching approach is very flexible and catered to the individual that I am working with because I believe that everyone has their own preferences and different learning styles. I try to present information in an engaging and simple way and often in more than one way for a...

...like it. Teaching and tutoring is challenging because no two people are alike and everyone brings unique and specific situations to the teacher/student relationship. Learning is not a "one size fits all" process and curriculums vary as do the individual needs of each student. I teach a number of subjects from grammar school through high school and some college level courses. My areas of focus are American and European History, world Religions and cultures, English...
