...was an economics major at Carleton College. Later, I earned an MBA in both Supply Chain Management and Finance. I am very pragmatic in my approach and relating to people is one of my passions. I've traveled through most of this country plus some 17 countries over 4 continents. My intuition is keen since I have become sensitive to how different people may perceive a situation differently. Consistently I find ways to communicate in a...

...and well equipped to succeed. I know first hand that testing and learning can be all too ridden with stress and have great techniques to reduce that. My approach to teaching is simple: kindness, calmness, clarity, and fun. I keep my students consistently engaged with questions. I know how to rephrase questions and bring them back in ways that each student is interested in to see maximum results. Most importantly, I find ways to make...

I graduated Summa Cum Laude from Binghamton University where I majored in mathematics and economics and completed a core group of science courses that were part of the Pre-Medical track.

...the exams themselves, I believe it is just as important for students to learn how to think calmly and confidently about these tests, so that they can help to serve students' broader educational goals. In addition to tutoring students - and being one myself - I enjoy keeping fit by boxing at the gym, reading mostly non-fiction, and rooting for favorite NCAA teams. I have had the opportunity to travel extensively abroad, and always enjoy...

...school. I enjoyed that because we studied in group, shared more time with classmates, and got good results usually. Over the last few years, I have volunteered as a teacher at an elementary-middle school and home-schooled high school students. My favorites subjects to tutor are Economics (macroeconomics, microeconomics, econometrics, etc.), Math (algebra, pre-calculus, calculus, etc.), Statistics and Spanish. I feel comfortable with Finance, World History and Geography, too. I think that tutoring involves teaching, guiding,...

...able to teach your child not only the content necessary to excel at the SAT and other standardized tests, but also how to utilize strategies to maximize efficiency and accuracy. In teaching, I enjoy connecting the subject matter to topics that would not necessarily seem relevant to the lesson in order to engage the student on a deeper level. I assess a student's strengths, weaknesses, and interests in order to best make the lesson come...

...when students realize they are now confident in their abilities to tackle new problems. I personally love teaching, but I also have a passion for learning; it is this passion that I strive to instill in each of my students. While not always successful, the ones that do change now possess a new outlook on school and their studies, and work that much harder to achieve their goals. I believe a tutor is not only...

...My teaching philosophy is that I believe the best way to learn subjects are through repetition of solving problems. I find that most of the students’ ultimate goals are passing the Standardized tests or exams. It is important that each student identifies the reason that he or she is studying for. Once that goal is vividly envisioned by the student, he or she will find enjoyment and satisfaction in understanding and applying new concepts as...

...started tutoring when I was in high school, myself, where I volunteered as a "Big Brother", helping incoming freshmen adapt themselves to the more rigorous environment of St. Paul's. While an undergraduate at Columbia University, I taught SAT prep courses. I will be going to law school in the fall, and until then I am continuing my passion for teaching with Varsity Tutors! My tutoring style has always been to fit the lesson to the...
