It is set in New York City, one of my favorite places to visit, and celebrates New York's distinctive mix of cultures. My other hobbies are collecting various types of music and collecting Star Wars toys. I am anxiously awaiting the December premiere of "Star Wars VII : The Force Awakens." Give a man a fish, he eats for...

...College Scholars and Phi Eta Sigma Honor Society. I have been tutoring for six years, predominately working with high school students, and have completed over 300 hours of volunteer tutoring. I am very passionate about learning (some may say that I am a nerd!) and strongly believe in learning because one genuinely desires to become knowledgable in the subject, rather than studying to master an exam. It is my utmost desire to watch my students...

In my experience helping students prepare for the SAT, I primarily focus on teaching the Math and Writing sections as I have extensive knowledge on both the content and the format of the tests. I believe that it is important to impart important concepts and problem solving mechanisms to people because it allows them to learn a...

...Math section of the SAT. I've received exactly zero job offers in the real world because of it. I have, however, utilized the analytical problem solving skills developed in high school and college test prep to advise a wide range of clients in the financial services industry, one that requires lifelong continuing educational testing. My goal is not to make sure you remember the formula for the volume of a cone ten years from now....

...Angeles, which I think has shaped much of my personality. I am currently a senior at GW studying Criminal Justice with a minor in International Affairs. On campus, I am a Peer Writing Consultant, and I've been a tutor for a DC organization working with students who fall behind in their school curriculums. I love interacting with people and watching students overcome subjects they struggle in and achieve breakthroughs. I consider my style to be...

...understandable terms. I have a diverse and strong experience in mathematics, including algebra, geometry, calculus, and trigonometry. I come from a family of engineers and was always taught to understand the root of concepts in order to be able to apply them fluidly when problem-solving. I have studied, enjoyed, and done well in psychology, biology (cell, molecular, genetics), chemistry, physiology, physics, anatomy, and more. As I move forward to make a career out of science,...

...well how nerve-wracking it can be to learn, and especially speak, a foreign language. But not only did I learn French, in my last job I used French often to speak with foreign government officials and even briefly interpreted for a Member of Parliament. So no matter how frustrating you find learning French to be or preparing for a standardized test or learning math to be, I can assure you if I can do it,...

...STEM subjects, literature and critical reading, and test prep. I earned my BS in Biology at the University of Dallas - a Great Books liberal arts college. I am a strong proponent of interdisciplinary, self-directed learning.

While living abroad, I taught English as a second language...

...and a Master's Degree in Mathematics from Johns Hopkins University. As you might guess, I specialize in teaching mathematics, though I can also tutor in physics.

My teaching philosophy is "math is easy"; my goal is to make sure you understand why math is...

...game nights. These activities help to keep me balanced and provide easy outlets during the semester. I truly believe that teaching students is more about understanding and analysis instead of memorizing formulas. This is reflected in my ‘partner-teaching’ style in the sense that I re-learn with the student in order to isolate areas of improvement, make the student more comfortable, and be relate-able in a way traditional teachers cannot. Having the student ‘teach’ me how...

...whiz in logic and reasoning through hands-on learning activities and taking real-world problems and trying to solve them in a way that makes sense to the student. It can be tough and challenging, but nothing feels more rewarding then being proud of the hard work that went into figuring out a problem. I have traveled my whole life and my goal is to visit and learn from different cultures and traditions on all 7 continents....

From Algebra I to higher level college Math, I am always excited to help students learn to love the Math they are studying and gain confidence in their abilities. I would hope that, in addition to getting the right answer, my students would learn how to arrive at the answer and fully grasp the concept behind it. I always...

...Notre Dame in 2014 with a B.S. in Biological Sciences and Theology. I've always had a desire to help others learn--in high school I would often help my peers with material when the teachers weren't able to fully explain the material. I tutored high school students for several semesters in college and loved the chance to make learning enjoyable. I've been tutoring for the past few months. I am currently interviewing at medical schools for...
