Award-Winning Calculus Tutors serving Yonkers, NY

When I was in the ninth grade, one algebra tutor changed my whole perspective on mathematics and showed me that it wasn't as scary as I initially thought. Since then, I realized the power a teacher holds in shaping young minds, and I aim to do the same with my students. Additionally, I have approximately eight years of tutoring experience as well as two years of experience as a co-teacher in an elementary school.

...classmates need help (statics, strength of material, advanced strength of material, AutoCAD, Invetor, Thermodynamics,...). Out of these subjects, math is my favorite, and the reason for that is I have a strong understanding of the material. Also, since middle school I fell in love with number at the point that I associate everything with number. My teaching philosophy is simple: If I teach you something and your are not able to teach it to someone...
