Philip: Nassau County Calculus tutor
Certified Calculus Tutor in Nassau County, NY
...Columbia College Chicago; after exploring many fields of interest (writing, linguistics, computer science, and more), I completed a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Fashion Design graduating Cum Laude.

Sometimes teachers do not have the time to give sufficient personalized attention, the way a qualified tutor can.

In order to compensate, when I found that mere classwork was not enough, I turned to online videos, external reading, extensive diagramming and other more flexible learning tools.

Then these ideas are applied to the problem, in order to unlock the solution. Generally, when...

Not surprisingly, my favorite subject to teach is biology, mainly because of the strong and long-standing personal interest I have had in the material, a passion that many students find infectious. I am a firm believer in taking a more hands-off approach to teaching, namely by letting my students work their way through problem areas with ample guidance. The quickest way to learn is...
