Award-Winning European History Tutors

...history, SAT/ACT (Verbal, Reading, Writing, Literature, Subject Tests), ESL, and college applications. With experience working for a diverse range of students, my teaching philosophy is that patience, expertise, and enthusiasm are essential to the learning process. I commit to providing these qualities for each student I tutor. Outside of my studies, I love walking my two German Shepherds, practicing yoga, and enjoying a good book (don't worry, I have plenty of excellent recommendations for you!).

...process of writing an essay, completing in-depth research, or constructing a thesis. Upon graduating with my Bachelor's degree in History, I decided to pursue my passion for helping students bridge the gap from high school to college. I began working in undergraduate admissions while still pursuing several graduate-level courses in American History. I am happiest when I'm able to help, advise, and support; tutoring is another way to do exactly that! I believe in being...

...find the most enjoyment in English and History. As an educator, I believe that learning is one of the most important parts of anyone's life. In all of my educational positions, I have found the most enjoyment teaching Math Support classes in which I help students prepare for standardized tests. In my spare time, I often find myself reading new books or watching various documentaries on Netflix. I also enjoy outdoor activities such as kayaking,...

...a student. I used to do stand-up comedy and sing in an acapella group, and I try to input at least some comedy into my tutoring (not a lot of opportunity for singing). I graduated from the University of Pennsylvania, did graduate school at Pace University, and am currently a Ph.D. student in American History at Temple University. I am a lifelong learner, and I look forward to working with you and your child.

...writing, some reading, and some discussion in each lesson, and in this way engage the main three modes of learning. That being said, I try to modify my teaching style to best benefit the type of student I am tutoring. Over the last year, I have been teaching test-prep for the ACT, SAT, and High School Entrance Exams, as well as high school writing; US History; Literature; and Chemistry, and all grade-school subjects. When I...

I am an intuitive listener who likes to communicate with people and to analyze what they say in order to understand them, connect with them, and influence their growth into more optimistic and moral people.

I've tutored for several years now, and what I most enjoy is when I can take a subject that many students consider boring or difficult, and actually make it interesting and enjoyable for them. My main area of focus is on history and English, though I can teach several other related subjects.

...My tutoring style is one in which I keep the student engaged in the material. This is especially important in my subject areas, as social sciences and the humanities are about understanding and analyzing events and cultures rather than merely memorizing facts. Thus, I try to structure my tutoring sessions in a way that there is collaboration and genuine discovery, rather than me lecturing the student. My interests include playing ping pong, watching soccer, and...

I have been tutoring international students for over 10 years. All my students love my creativity and sense of humor. I always provide them with fun lessons that encourage them to develop their conversation skills and teach them about American culture. I have mostly taught online but I have also taught face to face. During my ten years I have taught students from Korea, China, and Europe.

Hi, my name is Cammy and I am a rising senior at Northwestern University, studying Theatre, History, and Leadership. I understand how stressful school can be and am interested in arming you with both the knowledge and skills to find success!

...about STEM careers. Several of my classes stressed the value of effective communication, so I was taught how to present information about several topics. I believe that in order for someone to learn a subject they have to be interested in the material. As a tutor, I will strive to get the student invested in the lessons and teach them the information in memorable ways. My majors in biology and environmental studies have left me...

...since 2008 and regularly received the highest scores for student satisfaction on my teaching evaluations. I majored in Biology and German as an undergraduate at the University of Michigan. I believe it is a teacher or tutor's responsibility to determine a student's individual learning style and tailor her lessons accordingly. I do a brief interview with each client to ascertain whether he or she is a visual, auditory or combination learner and teach with these...

...I have experience tutoring college, high school, and middle school students. During tutoring sessions I like to pinpoint where the problem areas are and begin by working with students on the fundamentals. Once the basics are covered I like to work through problems together as a way to learn material, but ask that students spend some time studying topics at home/doing practice problems that we can go over during the tutoring sessions.

...grade areas from 9th grade Global to 12th grade Government and Economics. I was a History Undergrad at Lock Haven University of PA. While there, I studied History from around the world, with a concentration in both American and European Studies. As a high school student, I took AP Euro and AP US exams. I know what it takes to achieve high marks in History, both as a student and as a teacher. I can...

I'm even in the process of writing...

I have worked with students of all ability levels, including those with specific learning needs and gifted learners. My philosophy on education and tutoring is student-centered; my goal is to support students in not only learning and understanding, but in developing work ethic, studying and note-taking skills, and self-advocacy. I have a passion for history; throughout...

...courses. I have tutored throughout high school, college, and graduate school, with great success. When it comes to my tutoring style I truly believe that if you cannot explain something simply, then you do not understand it properly. That is why I endeavor to give the most straightforward explanation possible. I am a firm believer in contextualization - most especially in history - as it offers a broader and deeper understanding of concepts, which allows...

...for and achieve their goals! I believe every student learns in a different way, which is why I personalize my tutoring approach to fit YOUR needs. I am familiar with the SAT and ACT reading and writing sections, and I can help students improve their scores by walking them through practice questions AND giving them my own testing strategies. I know the SAT and ACT can be stressful for students, but I prepare them so...

...time I love to relax and hang out with friends whether we're watching a movie, playing video games together, or exploring the city and interesting museums.
