Kristy: New Haven California Proficiency Program (CPP) course instructor
Hi! My name is Kristy, an instructor specializing in Mandarin, Math, and Science for Varsity Tutors. My teaching style revolves around simplifying big, complicated concept into engaging, fun, and digestible lessons; learning via experience rather than rote memorization. When not tutoring students, I'm pursuing my MPH at College of Global Public Health in NYU. Before moving to New York, I studied Biological Science at the University of California, Riverside. ... Teachers should engage with students personally as well as academically. I like to give students choices rather than directives, and they will feel empowered to learn. Also, all students are individual, and everyone learns in their own unique way.

Marquan: New Haven California Proficiency Program (CPP) course instructor
I've been teaching, tutoring, and mentoring students since my freshman year of college and the most important lesson that I've learned is that EVERY student has the potential to learn. I found that if a teacher has high expectations as well as high support, then they will create an environment that is most conducive to maximizing student potential.

Instead, I think there is added value in having someone help you through a problem to understand the material as a whole (while still answering your homework problems). School is challenging,...

Zoe: New Haven California Proficiency Program (CPP) course instructor
Thanks to one-on-one help in middle and high school, I not only achieved stronger grades/test scores, but gained the confidence I will continue to use even beyond graduate school. I hope to give others the same invaluable tool set!... The ways I've always preferred to learn myself are typically the ways I teach. Once it seems like a student has a pretty strong understanding of a subject, I like to play competitive or timed games. It can be anything from dry-erase board Jeopardy to quiz racing. This way practice problems don't get too repetitive, and students know they can handle the material under pressure. I've found this especially helpful with test prep!
