Award-Winning AP World History Tutors serving East Orange, NJ

My name is Chynna I am a student at Hampshire College. Since my school does not give grades and it is a discussion and critical thinking based school, I believe finding out the form of student a child is, is essential for their learning. I base my sessions on their learning skills, difficulties in understanding and responses to topics.

...political science at UVA (B.A., 2010). I then received an M.A. (2012) and an M.Phil. (2014) in philosophy at Columbia. As a PhD student at Columbia, I served as teaching assistant for or taught numerous courses in these fields. I also taught in the university's pre-college program 2017-2023. I prefer **very strongly** to work with students who want to meet at least once a week on most weeks. The less often you want to meet,...

...we already know. In short, I became a fan of recycling, finding out what my students knew (always a surprising amount), what worked for them, and then coming up with improved ways of merging those effective strategies (at writing an essay with a thesis statement, for instance) with what were time-tested and worked well for me. As a tutor for standardized tests, I do the same, but also draw upon specific literary-minded questions that I...

...as well as English, literature, reading and writing. In my spare time I compete in obstacle course races such as the Spartan and Rugged Maniac and enjoy playing and watching most sports, and especially rooting on my New England Patriots! (But, yes I'll still tutor Giants fans) I am an open book so feel free to ask me anything before, during or after our sessions. I look forward to getting to know you each individually...

...at both the secondary and primary level for 5 years. Currently teaching 5th grade History. Coached Basketball, Track and Field; Cross Country with NYRR. Since 2011, I enjoyed tutoring 6-8 grade math and high school students to prepare and pass their NY Global & US History Regents Exam. As certified teacher in NYC, I taught World History & US History at both the secondary & primary level for 5 years. Currently teaching 5th grade History...

...With a background in the sciences and mathematics, and a graduate degree in philosophy I'm incredibly well-rounded in terms of what I'm capable of teaching and moreover, have a generally positive pedagogical approach to everything; I really do love teaching. Even fields in which I have little experience become a contest with myself to master solely for the sake of helping a student. I have extensive experience in reading, writing, and editing (I've been published...

...students and peers to explore their interests, generate ideas for research, and pursue them with the necessary tools and guidance that I hope to provide. I received my BA (with honors) from Dartmouth College in 2016. Though I arrived to Dartmouth as an environmental engineer (I still love math!), my interests in community development and historical research methods prompted my present trajectory. I love teaching and mentoring, and believe with the right attention, interest, and...

...NYU. I currently have a 4.0 GPA, and have completed course work in topics ranging from Roman Civilization to Calculus II. I took a variety of AP courses in high school and SAT Subject Tests and had to balance that academic work with being a year-round student-athlete. I am confident I know how to study effectively and manage my time, and if there is any way I can use those skills to help other students,...

...have always enjoyed seeing their progress as students. My tutoring experiences include after-school assistance to those struggling in Ancient Greek at my former high school, to helping Juniors and Sophomores help ace the SAT. My specialty is language and history, with an emphasis on Japanese, English, Latin, US history and World History, but I am also more than happy to help out those struggling with Algebra and Geometry. As someone who was once an ESL...

...functioning, and learning disabilities. With master's degrees in both Mathematical Physics and Special Education, I love teaching both advanced subject material and the fundamentals of literacy, organizing, and the whole human that go along with all learning. I often say I work best with folks who "love learning but hate school." I am very flexible with teaching, ethics and focus on student needs, styles and interests. In languages especially, I can bring students to great...

...recently in Yonkers Public Schools. Yonkers Public Schools has a program funded by the city that allows for in home tutoring to be made available to students who were either displaced from school for some reason or students who are new to the district. I was a tutor in this program for two years, and I had complete and utter success. I had one student that had a brain operation that was out of school...

...with a minor in English from Rutgers University, I am passionate about helping students excel in their English and Science courses. With my experiences in teaching environments, I focus on creating a supportive learning environment that fosters confidence and mastery of the material. My approach emphasizes individualized learning strategies, ensuring that each student feels engaged and motivated. I believe that understanding the underlying concepts is key to success, and I tailor my methods to suit...

My name is Cade Terada. I'm originally from Unalaska, Alaska, and attended a Blue Ribbon school. My high school was ranked the top in Alaska and one of the top 100 in the nation. I do extensive environmental work and have presented at various conferences. A quick Google search of my name will provide some of my previous work.

...a literary assistant at off-Broadway theater Playwrights Horizons, where I read play submissions and write thoughtful response letters. For three years, I worked as Enrichment Director at a Shakespeare education program at New Pond Farm in Redding, Connecticut. I helped teenaged actors struggle through difficult passages of iambic pentameter in Twelfth Night and Macbeth. The goal was not only to understand but ultimately even enjoy yes, enjoy Shakespeares dense and often bewildering sonnets, comedies, and...

I am an NYC-based tutor with many years of tutoring experience in and around the city. I've worked with students from many different backgrounds and ability levels. I believe strongly in the importance of giving a student the confidence to flourish academically.

...tutoring, I have experience in both English and ESL. My favorite method of teaching both is through the use of stories! English can be dry and boring, especially when focusing on grammar. When taught through the lens of a story, however, even nouns and pronouns can become more interesting. My absolute favorite thing to teach, though, is literary analysis. I confess I was one of those nerds in college who loved the ten-page literary analysis...

...that the better my grades were, the more freedom I had in the world. I spent my junior year giving every school assignment 110% of my energy, and it paid off: I was admitted to college a year early with a great scholarship. But more than the immediate freedom of college and a new state, my investment in my own education gave me an array of skills that have helped me in all areas of...

...night studying. Here's a few of my strategies: -- Each test is a game, treat it like one! All games have rules. There are free points on every test that can be won by just knowing these rules! -- Study smarter, not longer. Once we know the rules, we can apply them to make our study hours more effective. Fewer hours spent cramming and better scores! -- Relax! Being anxious about your grade doesn't help you...

...also worked as a teacher for a high school class for a few months. I have a good handle on math and science subjects. I also like tutoring test prep subjects to share my tips and tricks. You'll probably hear a sports analogy or two while working with me :) I like mixing up my tutoring style to engage students and hope to learn as much from them as they do from me.

...and goals. My teaching philosophy is student-centered: I believe that learning is most powerful when it feels personal. That's why I work to make each lesson relatable, drawing from your own interests and passions to build knowledge and skills that truly stick. Whether we're diving into big ideas or mastering foundational concepts, I'll be your partner in learning every step of the way. If you're looking for a tutor who listens, adapts, and brings enthusiasm...
