...was an officer in the U.S. Navy, where I learned to lead and teach people from all walks of life, and also saw first-hand how adding inspiration and encouragement helped our whole team do better and feel better about it.

...4 summers in a row at an art program in Westchester in creative writing and theatre. Later I went on to tutor in the more academic realms during college, however I still found creativity to be an essential part of reasoning. The art of teaching is a collaborative process. It is a dialogue between both the teacher and the student--a mutual process of learning. While in school, I taught a few middle school aged student...

...and rewarding experience, the students get discouraged. I aim to make learning fun and to allow students to examine how the concepts they learn in school can be applied to their daily lives - such as in sports, TV shows, or in the news.

...instead of teaching/tutoring, I should work for corporate America, and I worked at Goldman Sachs for 3 years. During that process, I realized that my true gift came from incorporating real life examples from the real world with academic lessons, which often help when teaching and fully learning a lesson. And that is my true teaching method, real world with a combination of academic topics, which help my students become independent with the knowledge.

...before teaching the more advanced subject. In high school, I myself struggled with physics and math, so I have a good idea of what could be confusing to students, and I know a lot of memorization tricks and analogies to simplify the hard concepts.

I earned my Bachelor's in Individualized Study at NYU Gallatin and my Master's in International Education at NYU Steinhardt. I believe in individualized lesson plans for each student.

...Traveling, meeting new people, and learning different cultures are my passions. Learning should be fun. I strive to ensure that students enjoy learning. I am an active person; I bike-ride, scuba dive, and work-out. Learning is a mental work-out: fun but also a challenge. It is crucial for students to make a connection with content. Thus, while teaching I am always relating content to tangible aspects in a student's life. I am excited to work...

...enough credit allowing me to skip the requirement once I started my college studies. AP Physics became the catalyst for my future career in engineering. The first time I took a physics I truly struggled with the material; but in AP Physics I learned how to study, apply knowledge to real world challenges, and that understanding core concepts is the greatest foundation one can have. Having my students attain these crucial skills is what I...

...with a far more deeper understanding and passion for math and science. Don't think of me as a tutor, but as an advocate and translator. I'm here for you.

...of all ages! I love relating academics to the real world. Not only can math be exciting (who doesn't love fractions?!), but I know from personal experience that math is absolutely necessary if you want to learn how to budget your money so that you can live in your own apartment or travel across Europe for three months. My goal as a tutor is to not only teach my students the skills they need for...

...exist today. Although I am happy to tutor in a range of subjects, I am most passionate in Chinese and Math, I believe these to be my strongest qualities, and it is where I would feel the most comfortable to give my 100 percent.
