Award-Winning English Tutors in Yonkers, NY

My name is Zovinar and I'm an undeclared undergraduate student at the University of Pennsylvania. I graduated from Stuyvesant High School in 2017 with honors in math and social sciences. My goal is to help high school students become better and more effective writers in any subject, whether that be history, literature, or science.

My practice is founded in the belief that critical thinking will always benefit the student greater than memorization. Therefore I spend my time show my students how to think and deconstruct problems instead of having them memorize the answers. This method has taken my student far beyond the classroom and has given them the tools to achieve their dreams.

Hi! I am a Psychology graduate and currently pursuing my teaching license in Elementary Education and Special Education. I have 5+ years of tutoring experience. My passion is teaching and my goal is to make my classes fun and a positive learning experience!

...but I'm more than capable of teaching Math as well If students are having a hard time with it. I like to make sure that I'm teaching in a fun but also understanding way because making sure that the students understand the material is the most important thing to me. Kids want a teacher who can make learning fun but can also be serious when they have to, and I'm the best combination of both.

...but rest assured, I will push you hard! My main goal is to make learning both fun and rewarding. Most of my former students have seen dramatic increases in their test scores after just a few months of weekly tutoring. Acing the SATs or any academic subject is really not as hard as it seems.

...as a (relatively) young person myself, I graduated from college but a few short years ago, student loan-free, due to an honors scholarship I received on the basis of academic merit. While I remain forever grateful to the City University system for providing me with a proper education, gratis, as it were, my true debt lies with the hardworking men and women who spent valuable time tutoring me during high school. I can honestly say...
