Award-Winning Calculus Tutors serving Mount Vernon, NY

...helping them develop a stronger grasp of challenging material. I draw from my experience in research, which includes studying semiconductor optoelectronics and protein folding kinetics, to give students real-world context and motivation. I aim to break down complicated concepts into manageable pieces while tailoring explanations to each student's unique learning style. I emphasize clarity and structured problem-solving, using visual aids and targeted practice to build intuition and confidence. I'm passionate about helping students not only...

...Arabic, and European Studies. Following my graduation, I took graduate-level courses in Biology to enhance my understanding of biological processes, and have also taken the MCAT. (Starting medical school this fall!) During this time, I have been finding ways to tutor different populations and to share my love of knowledge with others. I am particularly passionate about -- and have at least some experience in -- teaching English as a second language, teaching English and...

...but feel passionate about teaching. I hope to use tutoring as a stepping stone to one day continue my education in a PhD program to become a professor of computer science. I love math and programming, and hope to help students find their love for these two abstract fields. My philosophy is if I can understand how my student learns, I can help clarify the underlying principles and foundation of the most conceptually important details...

...from the Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences at New York University. I am passionate about teaching and mentoring students, particularly in mathematics and computer science, and I take pride in helping them meet their academic needs. I enjoy teaching mathematics, probability, statistics, machine learning, and artificial intelligence at both pre-college and college levels. During my time in college, I actively engaged in peer tutoring, which strengthened my ability to explain complex concepts effectively. In addition...

...the University of Michigan. I have a significant amount of tutoring experience from my jobs as a physics learning assistant and a middle school science tutor. My approach to tutoring is that every student is different, so it is important to try different approaches and applications. Every student is capable of mastering a subject, but they all learn differently. In my free time, I like to read, play the guitar, sing, and bake.

...publishing houses, a position in which I've utilized my strong mathematical interest and ability. Math and science have been two of my favorite subjects since middle school, and I follow the developments in these fields both in my career and in my spare time. I believe that students do their best when they have passionate teachers who can inspire them to want to learn a subject, especially one that can cause as much frustration as...

...Many traditional mathematics courses focus on rigor, theory, and proofs, which does not help the student understand how they can apply those concepts to everyday life. I like to work with students to help them understand how the concepts they learn in the classroom can be applied to real world situations. The age-old question for a frustrated mathematics student is, "When am I ever going to use this in real life?" I seek to help...

...volunteering after work. Most recently from 2012-2014 I was a volunteer tutor at the Fresh Air Fund in midtown Manhattan, where I worked with inner city middle school students after school on a one-on-one basis (two hour sessions once to twice a week). I love tutoring and I am comfortable tutoring all subjects ranging from Math, English, Foreign Languages (beginner to advanced Mandarin or French, beginner Spanish), Social Studies, History, Science and test-preparation.... I believe in...

...educated in a variety of subjects since college, that include Biology, Chemistry, Statistics, and of course, Social Sciences. I have a passion for education and I enjoy teaching and tutoring. Personally, I believe that educating a child involves much more than stating facts and hoping they listen. Children learn best when they are rewarded for trying (I am a big fan of scheduled positive reinforcements) and when they can why studying a subject is importance....

I am committed to helping students achieve success in a number of subjects by pinpointing specific areas where they need help as well as determining the teaching style under with which they learn best.

...and study sessions. I have a particular fondness for teaching introductory physics courses, since I've always hated hearing people say "I hated physics in high school" or "you have to be a genius to study physics", the latter of which is certainly not true (trust me). I think, when done properly, teaching physics to students for the first time can be unbelievably rewarding. I love giving students a better understanding of the world around them,...

...a multitude of courses and projects involving knowledge of advanced physics concepts, and has given me plenty of experience tutoring my peers and project teammates. Physics is the most interesting topic to me because it highlights how physical processes in our world are governed by complex mathematical formulas. These formulas allow us to model, simulate, and analyze concepts of forces, motion, electricity, waves, and many more, which we use to build incredible technologies that we...

...to be successful I want to Identify how each students learns (visual, repetition, step by step) Identify and practice missing prerequisite knowledge Provide appropriate support and practice for mastery and confidence Based on my experience in tutoring and teaching, the best way to learn something is to be allowed to ask any questions on anything and work through it with one on one attention. I have seen what 10 minutes minutes of one on one...

...a recent graduate of SUNY Oneonta in upstate New York with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Secondary Education and Physics. I am very passionate about helping others learn and I really enjoy explaining difficult concepts to a variety of students in both group and on-on-one settings. I am willing to help with a variety of math and science related subjects to get you where you want to go with your education.... My teaching philosophy is...

...enjoy Mountain Biking, Sailing, and Kayaking. I have studied Biochemistry for two years at SUNY Geneseo, and I am currently transitioning to a career path in Health Sciences closer to home. I believe I stand out as a tutor because I avoid mindless memorization and instead propose simple examples that explain why and how we come up with an answer. I was born with a love for learning and a passion for understanding. Let me...

...I am a critical thinker, a problem solver, and a life-long learner who inspires students to achieve their maximum potential.

Courses taught:...

I am a current civil engineering graduate at Stony Brook University. I enjoy helping students in my free time, especially those with interests associated with STEM, to understand the material they are learning in their academics. I am also a current tunnel engineering intern for Mott MacDonald, and am in the process of obtaining my EIT, as I passed my FE - Civil Exam in the fall of 2022!

...sessions. During the summer of 2011 I taught a five-week SAT Math prep course to rising high school juniors. I usually mold my teaching methods to fit the needs of my students. I believe the key to tutoring is to help the student have an "Aha!" moment, when a previously misunderstood concept suddenly makes sense. Such moments give students a real sense of confidence in themselves and agency in their learning, as their hard work...
