Immediately following graduation via AmeriCORPs I taught middle school science at MS 131 in Chinatown, NYC. While in medical school I tutored 1st and 2nd year medical students for the USMLE Step 1 and 2. These are the board licensing exams. When not studying I am an avid tennis player and love to do anything outdoors.

...University, with minors in wildlife science and psychology. I am passionate about all-things biology and eager to help others understand all of its wonderful components! It's how we learn about the world around us and it's what makes us, US! I enjoy all the sciences and I'm excited to help others enjoy them just as much as I do. In my spare time, I like hiking, hanging out with friends, birding, skiing, and cooking!

...Columbia University and I am now a playwriting MFA at NYU, one of the best programs in the country (the story of how I transitioned from physics to theater is pretty funny and I???m happy to share it). While my intensive study of advanced Math and Physics helps me tutor those subjects, I find my theater skills are just as valuable to effective teaching. As a playwright, I have learned to explain ideas efficiently, inspire...

...recently transplanted to the White Plains area to study the Biomedical Sciences! I have tutored students K-12 continuously since middle school, and I specialize in tutoring Math. I have helped failing students not only get passing marks but even top marks, helped B students to A's, and help A students get A+'s. I focus on helping students master their fundamentals, as well as teach the tips and tricks they need to conquer any question.

I love to work with students of all ages! I think that each person learns differently and needs to approach material in different ways. I also believe in organization when it comes to studying and homework. Only with a plan can you hope to be successful! I bring a lot of fun to the table and hope my students bring positive attitudes and an appetite for learning!

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.

...and Scarsdale High School students and spent the summer of 2017 as a mentor for Summer on the Hill at Horace Mann. As a tutor, I try to show students several different approaches to any task they are faced with, whether it be solving a math problem or organizing an essay. This way, students can find the method that best suits their learning style. Furthermore, they not only learn how to address the individual task...

The two things that make me a great tutor are my deep understanding of biology and my ability to communicate complex concepts in ways that are easy to understand. My passion for science and education also makes my tutoring sessions a lot of fun for my...

...them. This is the lens that I teach through, since there's always an application for the skills that we're tasked with learning. By jumping right into problems that matter and learning as we go, students will master topics in both theoretical and applied contexts. On a more personal note, I'm a biomedical engineering student at Georgia Tech. I also study computer science with an emphasis on artificial intelligence and conduct research in an immunoengineering lab....

...a sophomore at Yale University. For most of my high school career I attended Syosset Public High School, a National Blue Ribbon School in Long Island. In both academic settings I had great, inspirational teachers who influence the way I view learning today. Patience, validation, encouragement, and clear demonstration are values that I bring into my tutoring sessions. I believe that the most important thing is for the student to walk away feeling encouraged, willing...

...with the correct aid to guide. Throughout my interactions with these students, it made me wish I was able to ask for help from someone who could explain a certain concept in a way I could understand back when I was a sophomore. This regret impacted me, so today I question my professors about any misconceptions that I may have. In my first semester of college, I decided to take chemistry even though I passed...

Outside of the classroom, I run...

...teacher's assistant and it deepened my passion for education (as well as my passion for flan). When I got back to the US, I decided I wanted to try some other fields before I committed to education. I worked for two and a half years as Spanish-English medical interpreter helping Spanish-speaking patients communicate with their doctors. After that, I worked for an immigration lawyer. Both of these jobs were incredible experiences, but I found the...
