...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 math for as long as I can remember. I hope to inspire some students by showing...

...At Brooklyn Technical High School, I was on the Math Team and actively participated in many competitions, such as the AMC and the Moody's Mega Math Challenge. During my high school and college years, I tutored math and taught piano. I currently teach classical piano privately. As a tutor, I can relate to the mind of the student and explain concepts using everyday terms and examples to more effectively convey information to the student.

My name is Carly. I love to teach and motivate students to want to become a better learner. I I believe it is very important to make learning fun and engaging in order to be effective. I make sure all of my lesson plans incorporate various needs: visual, auditory, tactile and kinesthetic! I believe a strong point for me is my ability to motivate students and combine classroom/tutoring management.... I believe it is important to motivate...

...to identify and help reading and writing issues, including reading strategies, like reviewing and summarizing, and writing strategies, like story maps, free writing, genre writing, and voice writing. As a tutor for your child, I am committed to learning about your child's personality, interests, and learning styles, and work to make the content relevant and engaging so that your child will gain the confidence, on top of the practice to flourish in their target subjects.

...that these tests can be a little scary and intimidating, but it's my job to help you master the material and boost your confidence. Aside from tutoring, I love to read and cook; I am also an endurance athlete -- I hung up my basketball shoes once I realized there was no hope for me in the WNBA, and instead focused my energy on training and competing in marathons and yes, even the occasional ultramarathon!...

...literary fiction (though I have quite an affinity for WWII fiction). I also love to write and try to take as many different kinds of writing classes as my schedule and wallet can afford me. Aside from literary interests, I love trying any kind of new food, attempting to bake pies, and knitting anything cozy or fluffy. I believe that through communication, we can work together to target your specific needs in English Literature/Reading/Writing, Spanish...

...people and want all their goals to come true( not just their academic ones). In my free time, I usually exercise my songwriting and playwriting skills in creating childrens musicals some which are currently being toured in different area schools.

I have tutored all subjects and strategies for ACT and SAT test prep. I am also the parent of teenagers (boy and girl), who have helped me understand the value of patience and encouragement when tackling high school studies and tests. My personal interests include sports, movies, music and technology.

...students in writing, reading, test prep, and math, in both one-on-one sessions and in groups. I'm most passionate about teaching writing. Whether it's a college essay or a book report, I believe empowering a student to communicate in their own voice is one of the most crucial skills someone can have. In addition to tutoring, I'm also a cartoonist and writer. When I'm not teaching, I enjoy drawing, playing piano, and watching basketball.

...choir. I specialize in musical theater acting and have performed all over the country including Carnegie Hall. I am a big sports fan too, and every once in a while, I might just glue myself to the couch to watch my favorite team play (or at least put it on DVR if I'm working). I am a marathon runner, indoor soccer player, dancer, and a whole lot of other things that I am trying every...

...discovering solutions to problems on their own. Firsthand experience is the best way to excel in mathematics, and by facilitating a conducive environment for students to arrive at the answers, I find it is by far the most effective method of tutoring. I enjoy gaming in my free time. Video games are great at stimulating logical and critical thinking, while also helping to develop the uncanny ability to think quick on one's feet. I apply...

...SAT and GRE. I recently completed a Master’s degree in medieval art history and am returning to New York where I did my undergraduate degree to work part-time in museum education at a local institution. As a result of my museum education training, I am happy working with a variety of learning styles and using creative approaches. Moreover, I have a flexible and open schedule and am happy to work with you to find the...

When I am not tutoring, I enjoy reading fiction, going to the movies, and spending time...

...teaching because there are so many ways to teach a student that were not available when I was a student especially in the elementary grades. The different ways help both me and my students because I can utilize these ways to ensure their success and to help build their confidence in their ability. When a student has confidence in their skills, they can learn anything. In my spare time I like to play video word...

...I believe I can act as a role model to encourage students that working hard pays off, and it is in fact cool to succeed in math and science. There is a huge reward for diligence, hard work, and success, and I try to instill these in every person I assist. My coursework has included Differential Equations, Multivariable Calculus, Discrete Math, etc. as well as lots of Physics courses (Heat and Mass Transfer, Mechanics, E&M,...

...math problems even now as an adult. With my students I tried to have them attempt a problem and observe their strategy. I've found that by observing how my students naturally work I can discover how to help them approach problems more effectively. Aside from tutoring I really enjoy reading and watching all types of movies. My favorite types of movies are action based, especially movies that are based off of Marvel and DC comic...

...difficult challenges to achieve their goals. I find one-on-one interactions to be extremely beneficial for improvement in the classroom. I am very adept at working with others and think my time management and leadership skills will be beneficial to any student I tutor, especially student-athletes aspiring to succeed in both academics and athletics. I hope to move at a pace that is challenging but suitable to each individual based on his or her needs. Since...

I have been a nanny and babysitter for years as well as worked as a teaching assistant at a private pre-school. I try to make learning as fun as possible and as individualized as possible! What works for one student doesn't always work for another. I look forward to working with you and your child(ren)!

Of all the subjects I tutor, I am most passionate about math, the life sciences, and writing. In my spare time, you will find me either working out at the gym, baking sweets in my kitchen,...

...I know what it takes to make a student a contender at the highest level of admissions. I keep the material fresh and memorable through a variety of audiovisual approaches and real-world examples. One-on-one learning should never mean lectures, and I like to hold an ongoing conversation so students use their own learning skills in new ways to solve new kinds of problems. My creative experience in film-making allows me to guide interested students through...
