Allison

A Beginner's Guide: Excel Tutor • +22 Subjects

With a B.S. in Developmental Psychology and preschool education training from Cornell University and a M.Ed in International Education from Harvard University, I became an elementary school teacher at the United Nations International School in New York City. I loved teaching here because of the multicultural atmosphere. I loved interacting with international students and learning about different cultures.I presently tutor at the elementary school level and I especially love teaching math because it's like puzzles to figure out. I use many visual aids and really believe in breaking down everything to the basics and my motto is review, review and review. I believe it's important to go over things because we all forget and that's ok.

Fallon

AP French Tutor • +8 Subjects

I am a graduate from Baylor University, located in Waco, Texas. I received a Bachelor of Arts in French as well as in International Studies. I tutored many of my colleagues during my time at Baylor. I also volunteered my time as a tutor at the local middle school while I was in high school. I tutor in French, a subject I am incredibly passionate about. I initially studied French to get in touch with my French heritage and fell in love with francophone cultures, literature, and more recently, linguistics. I enjoy tutoring in French not only because of my personal enjoyment of the subject, but also because I understand all of the advantages of being proficient in a foreign language. Not only does learning a foreign language allow the ability to communicate with thousands of people in their native or socio-political tongue, but it also allows people to think and learn in an engaging way that is unique to language. There is a mix of patterns as well as abstract thought, working different areas of the brain. The idea of tutoring a subject that has so many complexities and benefits truly excites me. As a tutor, I generally have two goals. First and foremost, I provide individual attention to the pupil according to their individual learning style(s) and needs. I also tend to teach material in a way that will assist them in future lessons, primarily by revealing patterns rather than stressing memorization. Additionally, I recognize the reality of a student needing to improve their grades. My technique to improve grades involves a review of past tests and homework to develop an understanding of the teacher’s primary learning goals. This also helps me to get an idea of a pupil’s thought processes. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, baking, and traveling both around the world and around this amazing country, both for business and for pleasure.

College Application Essays Tutor • +24 Subjects

I earned my bachelors in Mechanical Engineering from MIT with a minor in Management. At MIT, I was a director and teacher for the Educational Studies Program (ESP), the group that runs MIT Splash, an event where 2000+ high schoolers come to MIT to take classes from MIT students on any subject imaginable. My time in ESP got me addicted to "spreading the joy of teaching and learning".I love my work as a manufacturing consultant and enjoy spending my weekends teaching online small-group classes and tutoring students. When tutoring, I specialize in Math, Physics, English Grammar and Syntax, and Microsoft Excel since those are all skills and concepts I tutored in college and continue to use daily. I particularly like helping students draw connections that help them link concepts they're learning to the real world. I wish you all the best in achieving your academic goals!

Algebra 2 Tutor • +6 Subjects

Effective teaching requires the perfect combination of knowledge, patience, commitment, collaboration, and technology. Balancing those key characteristics will allow students to achieve high academic standards within rigorous mathematics courses.Teachers must continue to be lifelong learners. By pursuing higher degrees in mathematics, a teachers content knowledge will strengthen and evolve. As a teacher gains a stronger depth of knowledge within their field, their ability to explain, illustrate, and communicate mathematics to students will flourish. This strong knowledge background allows for enriched curriculum development to take place and, in turn, students gain a more in-depth exposure to the content.Despite a teachers passion for the subject, students dont always share the same passion and appreciation for mathematics. Consequently, an effective teacher must have the patience to support and encourage students through topics in which they may struggle. An effective teacher must also possess a commitment to their students so that those students may trust that their teacher will not waiver even when they struggle.By collaborating with colleagues, an effective teacher is able to continually gain methods for explaining topics to students. This is extremely helpful when students are finding a concept to be difficult and creates the possibility for differentiation within the classroom. Curriculum development is also more successful when it is created collaboratively with other colleagues. Technology can further enrich the curriculum by providing visual representations of the mathematical concepts being taught. Often times, the use of technology can make the difference between a student truly understanding something and a student merely working toward a passing grade. In todays schools, students are highly motivated to use technology.As a mathematics instructor, you will observe my knowledge, patience, commitment, collaboration, and use of technology on a regular basis. Students will be prompted to realize the beauty of mathematics that is all around us on a daily basis within my classroom as a student.

Frequently Asked Questions

Score improvement depends on your starting point and study effort, but most students see measurable gains within 4-8 weeks of consistent preparation. Students who work with tutors typically improve their weakest sections most significantly—often 3-5 points or more on individual subtests. The key is identifying which sections (Math Knowledge, Paragraph Comprehension, Mechanical Aptitude, etc.) are holding you back and targeting those areas with focused practice and strategy refinement.

The ASVAB has 9 subtests: Arithmetic Reasoning, Word Knowledge, Paragraph Comprehension, Mathematics Knowledge, Electronics Information, Auto and Shop Information, Mechanical Comprehension, Assembling Objects, and Verbal Expression. Most students find Arithmetic Reasoning and Mathematics Knowledge challenging because they require both speed and accuracy under time pressure. Paragraph Comprehension and Mechanical Comprehension also trip up many test-takers. A tutor can help you identify your specific weak areas through practice tests and develop targeted strategies for each section.

Timing is critical on the ASVAB because you have limited minutes per section. The most effective strategy is to practice full-length, timed practice tests repeatedly so you build speed without sacrificing accuracy. Tutors help you learn which question types to tackle first, when to skip difficult questions and return later, and how to avoid getting stuck on any single problem. With consistent timed practice, you'll develop an intuition for pace that lets you answer more questions correctly within the time limit.

Practice tests serve two critical purposes: they reveal which sections and question types give you trouble, and they build familiarity with the test format and time constraints so you're not caught off guard on test day. Taking multiple practice tests under real timing conditions helps you calibrate your pacing strategy and reduces test anxiety. Many students find that their practice test scores improve consistently as they review their mistakes and reinforce weak concepts—this is where a tutor's feedback on why you missed questions becomes invaluable.

Most students benefit from 4-12 weeks of preparation, depending on their starting score and target branch/job requirements. If you're scoring well already, 4-6 weeks of focused review may be enough. If you need to improve math or reading skills significantly, 8-12 weeks allows time to build foundational knowledge alongside test-specific strategy. A tutor can assess your baseline with a practice test and create a realistic timeline tailored to your goals and study schedule.

Test anxiety often stems from unfamiliarity with the format and uncertainty about whether you're prepared. The best antidote is repeated exposure: taking full-length practice tests until the format feels routine removes a major source of anxiety. Working with a tutor also helps because you get personalized feedback showing exactly what you can do well, which builds confidence. Additionally, tutors can teach you test-day strategies—like deep breathing, positive self-talk, and time management tactics—that give you concrete tools to stay calm under pressure.

For math (Arithmetic Reasoning and Mathematics Knowledge), the strategy is to solve problems quickly without a calculator by recognizing common question patterns and using shortcuts. For reading (Word Knowledge and Paragraph Comprehension), you need strong vocabulary and the ability to extract key information fast. A tutor can teach you section-specific techniques: for math, recognizing when to estimate or work backwards; for reading, how to skim strategically and identify what each question is really asking. Practice with instant feedback on why answers are right or wrong accelerates mastery of these strategies.
