Award-Winning Calculus Tutors serving Westchester, NY

...abilities greatly varied. I know that most students do not enjoy mathematics, so it is my goal, as a tutor, to make the subject as fun and relatable to those of all ages. I strive to ensure that my students do not simply memorize the information that is presented to them, but also understand the concepts so that they are able to apply them to other ideas in the classroom. I have always enjoyed doing...

...learning environment and supportive opportunities that come with tutoring. Prior to Varsity Tutors, I gained tutoring experience in both high school and college. When I graduated from Colgate University, I was dedicated to continue this work in New York City. I am eager to translate my love for learning and promote an encouraging, comfortable, and supportive learning space. I view tutoring as an opportunity to improve my students' weaknesses, as well as expand their strengths....

...am fluent in this language. Being the first in my family to graduate from college, I do believe that an education is absolutely necessary for an improved quality of life. I will use positive encouragement to promote confidence and step-by-step guidance in tackling a problem. I will asses the student's strength and weakness in order to give them practice problems that can help them master a subject such as math, science, and Spanish. In my...

...excited to be working with Varsity Tutors! Understanding a subject boils down to understanding its basic components, and my philosophy is if you master the basics, no question can be too difficult for you. I can tutor a wide variety of subjects, but I'm most equipped to prepare students for their SAT's (math, critical reading, and writing) alongside teaching History, Economics, and English, both at the general and AP levels. In my free time, I...

...is similar to climbing a mountain. All the routes to the top of the mountain require some effort, but there exist routes that are relatively smooth and short. In terms of learning, I believe methods of learning play an important role in studying. I have always been interested in learning and teaching.

I'm genuinely interested in learning about their everyday lives and what they enjoy in and outside of school. I'm also patient (I...

...My name is Abram Moats and I am currently a junior studying applied mathematics at Columbia University. Between studying for finals and doing problem sets, I have lots of other math-related hobbies, like calculating where you are most likely to see a movie star on set in New York, or which country will default next on their loans. I believe that with the right motivation, our dreams are possible through diligent work and intelligent effort.

...in my own education, feeling like I didn't have a specific talent or strong area. However, my own private tutor raised my confidence and showed me that math is not an enigma. I'm very patient and am great at motivating the student. I make sure the student understands each step, as well as not giving them the answer directly. Now, I would love to give back to the people who are using Varsity Tutors.

...Neuroscience. A lot of my coursework includes developmental work and my academic experience as a whole has exposed me to an array of principles of child learning development. I am a mentor at a nearby Binghamton Middle School and have experience in mentoring and educating students of all academic backgrounds. My approach focuses on using students strengths to motivate them and using several teaching techniques and my own classroom experience to navigate their weaknesses and...

I am qualified to tutor PSAT, SAT, ACT, AP, LSAT, and the GRE. I am extremely well-rounded and eager to help.... Every student should be treated on an individual basis because no two students learn exactly the same way.... I can ask the student questions to make sure...

...in driving students towards independent learning and making them able to apply their knowledge in real life scenarios. I like to dig deep into the roots of subjects to make sure the student actually understands the basics of the subjects being taught. It's fascinating how a strong foundation in academics helps students decipher the more difficult concepts independently. Outside teaching, I am a musician, a soccer fan, and a debator. I belive that the eduction...

I worked as a swim instructor for children ages 3-15 when I was in high school, and love being outdoors, exploring, traveling and dogs. I specialize in elementary school math, middle school math, as well as Calculus and Algebra. I am also eager to tutor English,...

Many students benefit from one on one learning experiences. It is important that students get individual attention to ensure that they understand the material, and that attention is not always given in the classroom environment. Students should be able to feel comfortable with their teachers and ask questions when they need clarification, and there should be enough trust between teacher and student for easy conversation.

...a part time basic, I took up a full time Job with the state as Grade 9 mathematics teacher; this was an enjoyable moment for me because I was able to make significant impact by increasing the mathematics pass rate from 40% to 98% after 3 years. This achievement was maintained for another 2 years and it also pave way for me in getting many tutoring contracts from parents and reference who say how good...

...(High school students). The courses I teach in this varsity tutors platform are Biomedical engineering, College Physics, College Math, Engineering, Computer Programing, Programing Languages, Math, Physics, Python, Science, and Technology and Coding. I like to teach courses by trying to find real-world applications of the theory taught in classes. I also ask students if they have any problems they want to go over together to bring them before to the session beforehand.

...gratification in seeing a student have an epiphany in learning. I promote this learning by making analogies and other connections that the student not only relates to, but also finds interesting. In this manner I am not only able to make lessons exciting, but I also become energized myself. In the end my student always leaves with a fresh perspective, added strength in a previously weak subject area, and an increased passion for learning.... I teach...

...since I was in the eighth grade and have helped my younger siblings and cousins with homework ever since I was a child. I come from a single-parent home, but was a very driven student who graduated as valedictorian of one of America's top public high schools in a highly competitive STEM program, with 16 AP classes under my belt. I was also a National Merit Scholar. I feel that education is what has helped...
