Award-Winning Engineering Tutors serving Nassau County, NY

...the entire class can understand. This situation can be easily remedied with private tutoring, which is where I come in. Having just completed a degree in biomedical engineering at the University of Pennsylvania, I have gained a strong understanding of several subjects within math and science. In the past, I've tutored in math and writing at both high school and collegiate levels. These experiences have been thoroughly enjoyable because, in addition to teaching, I was...

...and Materials Science with a concentration in carbonaceous nano-materials. My passion for education stems from the fact that in high school I received a C in physics in my first term. I was determined to get a A to keep my streak of A's in science going. At the end I received a B-. I went on to study physics because it challenge me to think out of the box and find alternative solutions to...

I am a senior chemical engineering major at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. I love to help people improve their skills in STEM fields and to help them apply what they learn.

...and Dynamics tutor. As a tutor, I like to follow along with the student so they understand step by step what is happening and where exactly they went wrong. From my experience, poor grades has a lot to do with confidence and is sabatoged by nerves during tests. I will make sure to provide positive remarks to students so they start to feel like the knowledgeable and capable individual that they are.

Hi, I'm a forth year engineering student at Columbia University studying computer science. Outside of school, I'm a software engineer for the Spectator Publishing Company currently managing one of our main projects, and I'm a teaching assistant in a local elementary school 5th grade classroom. I love math and physics and would love to help you with that! I also can help with SAT prep ans college applications

...science, and Spanish in High School. Spanish is the second language I have learned when growing up. My family are Latinos so I am fluent in this language. Being the first in my family to graduate from college, I do believe that an education is absolutely necessary for an improved quality of life. I will use positive encouragement to promote confidence and step-by-step guidance in tackling a problem. I will asses the student's strength and...

As a physics major at Barnard College of Columbia University, I've worked as a tutor since I was in high school, helping peers and younger students with physics and math. I love helping people understand my favorite subjects and can't wait to do more work as a tutor. Outside of tutoring, I spend a lot of time exploring New York, reading, and doing community service.... In a first session, I think it's important to get to...

...understanding of concepts and providing them with learning tools such as review sheets and step by step problem solutions. With some team effort, I designed and developed a solar bicycle, capable of harnessing energy through regenerative braking; this project helped me attain more experience in the fields of Robotics and Construction. I believe that with the right tools and patience, one can solve complex quantitative problems by simply breaking them down into easy steps. I...

I am currently an undergraduate student at Binghamton University, pursuing a Bachelor's Degree in Industrial and Systems Engineering. I have about a year of tutoring experience, primarily in high school mathematics. My strongest subject areas are Math, History, and English!

...developing a good understanding the basic subject early on in middle school and high school. As a volunteer as for the Nonprofit organization, Newark Science and Sustainability, I have conducted talks, PowerPoints and produce posters on the science of gardening, renewable energy technology, and nutrition. I got my bachelor's degree in Material Science and Engineering at Penn State University and currently working on my master's degree in Material Science and Engineering at NJIT. I have...

...practitioner who has been privileged to have served in various leadership/teaching capacities and have endeavoured to build and sustain leadership capacity in teachers and students alike. On a note of teaching philosophy: Fact that students vary in abilities and background, I adapt my teaching style to students' learning styles through the application of (a) in-class demonstrations; constantly supporting verbal instruction with good, clear visual images, (b) open laboratory time after school, etcetera. I believe in...

...and eventually get a Master's and Ph.D. My favorite and strongest subjects are math and the sciences. Because of my background in high school and major in college, I have plenty of experience with Calculus I through IV, Biology, Physics, and Chemistry. I love helping students in math and science and it gives me a sense of satisfaction to see other people succeed. As the eldest of three I've helped my younger siblings in their...

...approaching it with the right attitude is essential to really learning. As a professor of mine often said, "You've got to feel it in your bones!" As a physics and chemistry major at Harvard, I've come to rely on strong visual and intuitive models. Once you can see the essence of the idea in your head, problem solving is a piece of cake. No matter what, we will always go step-by-step. I love learning and...

...to higher ed. I've worked with students on the PSAT, and SAT. I have proficiency in upper-level engineering instruction, as well. I've helped people with a range of application materials, as well, including college apps, personal statements, and job materials. I'm extremely comfortable working with students with complex needs to find innovative learning tools for success. There's no one correct way to learn, and there are as many strategies as there are people in the...

...that every student requires a different approach. I scored in the 98th percentile on the SAT and many AP exams, and I've helped many people increase their scores on standardized tests. I'm an engineering student, so I use math, chemistry, and physics knowledge on a daily basis. I bring a systematic problem-solving approach to tutoring. I'm happy to bring my patience and experience to Varsity Tutors, and to help more people achieve success!

I'm a friendly, professional, experienced tutor and teacher who loves seeing a student learn and master a new concept or technique. I have a passion for seeing students progress in their learning and come to unexpectedly enjoy a new subject.

...from Emory University before receiving my Masters in Mechanical Engineering from Georgia Tech. During my time at Georgia Tech I was able to serve as a graduate teaching assistant, holding office hours, assisting students with assignments, and even preparing and teaching a handful of classes. As an engineer I've always enjoyed math and science, but understanding their applications is truly what has inspired me. My goal in tutoring is to uncover the power of math...

...tutored three home-schooled children in Hebrew, designing all lesson plans, activities, and tests. Between high school and college, I spent a year in Israel, as I knew engineering would make a semester abroad difficult. For three months of my time there, I volunteered in a grade school English class and after-school program for teenage kids in an underprivileged neighborhood. In the grade school, I sat in the class with the children, and helped them follow...

...mid-level French and Spanish. Additionally, I am a native Spanish speaker and went through two years of ESL myself as a young child, and am therefore excited to help anybody, child or adult, reach their full potential in this subject. I studied French for nine years and love the language, and would be thrilled to share my knowledge with students that need it. When not tutoring, I enjoy hiking, birding, and wildlife photography (luckily these...

I am graduate student in Software Engineering and have a strong background in mathematics, statistics and physics. Teaching and tutoring is something I have done extensively during school because it helps me revisit many foundational concepts in these subjects, helps evolve my teaching strategies and above all: because I love doing it. I am always looking for feedback and ideas on how I can be the best tutor to you.
