Award-Winning Computer Science Tutors serving Suffolk County, NY

...only acing exams but for understanding exactly how to work with students of all backgrounds and temperaments. My teaching style involves Socratic Questioning and is highly interdisciplinary. It is never a one-way stream of information. I will be asking you a lot of questions along the way. The two most lessons that I teach to my students: 1. tolerance of uncertainty; and 2. confidence in your own self-efficacy. Everyone can attain mastery. I never doubt....

...understand a topic they are struggling with. I feel that the tutor gains as much as the student from the experience. As a tutor, I believe that students will enjoy learning if they understand the material rather than memorize it, so I always strive to clarify the underlying principles and central themes of any topic I am explaining. This also helps the student apply their knowledge independently to other areas, which is the ultimate goal....

I have 2+ years of experience teaching FIRST LEGO League Robotics and 2+ years of experience tutoring ACT/SAT math and middle school math (pre-algebra, algebra, probability, geometry). I hope to help more students to reach their academic goals.

...am currently a rising senior studying computer science at Rutgers. I have always had a passion for helping others learn as I know from personal experience how much of an impact good teachers can have on students. I personally like to emphasize practicing above all when teaching as I feel that hands-on work in a subject is the best way to fully understand it. I currently tutor C, Java, Python, and general college computer science.

...mathematics from the University of Rochester, and am currently pursuing a master's degree in cybersecurity at Rutgers University. I have experience tutoring math at the middle school and high school levels, particularly algebra and related topics. In tutoring I believe the most important thing is that the student understand *why* something is the case, rather than just *that* it is. This is crucial to forming a strong foundation on which further understanding can be built.

...efficiently, and achieve their goals. My students say they have to work less hard, and have less stress from school, while getting better grades (that is, the students who engage and practice the tools between sessions). I hold a Master's of Science and have taught Anatomy and Physiology in the Nursing Program at Laguardia Community College in NYC. At other colleges I have taught Biology, Academic and Business Writing, also Communication Skills in Business and...

...love tutoring children of elementary through high school ages individually, learning what they don't understand and how they think, and tailoring my approach to their particular needs and style rather than applying a one-size-fits-all approach. I am particularly proud of helping a high school senior improve his SAT scores by over 300 points enabling him to gain admission to and ultimately graduate with a Bachelor's degree from Fairleigh Dickinson University. As a senior software engineer,...

...to understand each student's learning style, pace, and personality, so I can create lessons that are both effective and enjoyable. I'm especially proud of helping students who once felt discouraged regain their confidence not just in the subject, but in themselves. I want to be the kind of tutor who not only helps students get better grades, but also shows them that learning can be empowering and even fun. If I can make even a...

...tutored students in algebra, calculus, physics and chemistry, in which I gained a lot of experience when it comes to how to teach students and understand how they want to be taught. I believe that students will learn more by genuinely understanding the material. Therefore instead of throwing a bunch of practice questions at students and hoping for the best, I think that it is beneficial to slow down and explain concepts thoroughly, give extra...

...I want students to have the skills necessary to make a positive impact on themselves and the world. Because my model teacher is Jesus Christ, I try to emulate his style; that is, with patience, humility, grace, passion, and accuracy. I mainly tutor courses at the collegiate level; though, I also tutor elementary and high school level courses. The topics I cover in Mathematics are Algebra I-II, Geometry, Precalculus, Calculus I-III, Linear Algebra, Abstract Mathematics,...

...possible. Students should not be thought of as mindless individuals just waiting to be filled with knowledge by their teachers. Quite the opposite; students should be viewed as individuals who can contribute to the classroom, sharing and gaining knowledge from each other. Students need guidance and not just lectures only. Education is not solely academic; the teacher must also educate his students mentally by teaching them the skills needed to solve problems and socially by...

...biology and chemistry. I realized that many students struggled with concepts in these subjects. I know its very difficult to understand many of the processes either in the human body or in chemical reactions. My past tutoring experience gives me the confidence to effectively teach concepts with ease. As a tutor, I would like to understand the hurdles that the student is facing on the problem. In order to efficiently tutor a student, the student...

I recently converted to Judaism. Eliyahu (Elijah) Dayan is my Jewish (preferred) name. I have been tutoring for 7 years now. I graduated from Lehigh University with Computer Science and Business degree. I have expertise in Math, ELA, and Computer Science.

...help students understand arithmetic just a bit more! My teaching style varies between students, as I get to know you during our session I will quickly see what sort of teaching style best suits your needs. Going over a problem with a student then providing multiple practice problems and explaining all of the proofs in my work usually helps all of my clients have a deeper understanding with the subject as a whole!

...understanding concepts is not learning rather, it is a dangerous road that leads to falsehood of knowledge. My goal as a teacher of any subject is to assist the student to come to their own conclusions through the analysis and use of underlying concepts. The independent determination of concepts marks the skill of learning. It must be known that this is not an easy thing to accomplish and struggling is inevitable; however, persistence through the...

...5-20 students. Doing this and managing a lego store for 3 years taught me that in order to teach, you must learn your student. I was an Accounting Administrator for 2 years at a real estate company that operates in the US and Ireland. I am QuickBooks Online Certified and I am a firm proponent of education, believing it to be absolutely necessary for an improved quality of life, and I try to impart this...

I am currently enrolled in Columbia University, pursuing a degree in Civil Engineering. I have a genuine passion for tutoring math and find great satisfaction in helping others understand and excel in the subject. My approach to tutoring revolves around tailoring my teaching methods to meet each student's individual needs. My ultimate objective is to empower my students to gain the necessary skills and confidence to independently tackle mathematical problems.

Hello, my name is Ayman Saleh, I am a sophomore at Rutgers University studying electrical engineering. I love using math and science to solve really cool problems like taking a team of drones and having them build a 3D map of a room cooperatively. I am all about showing how you can use math and science in a very cool and intuitive way to help you in your life.

...build rapport with my students. I pride myself on being able to determine where problems lie and how best to tackle them. I rarely give students answers - I think it's my job to help them figure it out for themselves so they can do it again on their own. In my free time, I like to play tennis, see movies and write creative nonfiction. I plan on attending law school in the near future.

...many of my students after class during my substitute teaching time and my middle school- math teaching assignment. In addition to this, I have tutored students privately who were struggling with mathematics. I have tutored middle school math and high school math, ranging from pre-Algebra to Calculus. My favorite subjects to tutor are Algebra, Pre-Calculus and Calculus, these are very interesting and lay the foundation for upper-level math courses and that's why I enjoy teaching...
