Tevin
American Literature Tutor • +32 Subjects
I am a graduate of Georgetown University, where I studied Anthropology and Portuguese.I tutor world history and Spanish, both of which I enjoy doing. For me, history is like a story; and so, doing well on a history test means being able to remember every part of a story, and being able to elaborate on that story. Of course, the tricky part is being able to memorize all of the parts of several concurrent stories. When it comes to Spanish, I enjoy helping those who have difficulty understanding the language basics, which are critical in mastering it later on. As a heritage speaker, it is important for me to not only help students with their pronunciation, but also with their cultural competency skills.Outside of work, I enjoy running, traveling (which often includes a lot of running, whether it be on train platforms or to boarding gates), eating tacos, and swimming.
Cori
College English Tutor • +8 Subjects
During my time at Syracuse University, I was given the opportunity to facilitate my own classroom discussion group for 1 semester. I was responsible for creating lesson plans and steering the conversation among the students. I have also had the opportunity to tutor a student to help improve her writing. These experiences have allowed me to understand how people learn and improve their skills; practice, practice, practice.I earned my Bachelor's Degree in English and Textual Studies. In my college years, I greatly improved various skills involving writing, research, reading comprehension, grammar, studying, and more. I put some of my skills to the test when I edited a blog, as well as contributed a couple of articles.
Shuang (John)
Algebra Tutor • +26 Subjects
A #2 pencil and a dream can take you everywhere.I have very good understanding of the subjects that I tutor, as proved by my academic records. I also have a great passion for teaching. I've been a calculus facilitator at Syracuse University for two years in my undergraduate study, which can be described as an "alternative TA." My experience also includes one semester one-on-one tutoring with a college electrical engineering student. I love teaching and I love helping students out. When I heard back from my students saying: "This makes much more sense now.", I feel eternally happy for them from my heart.

I am a recent Student Conservation Association Alum and I'm happy to discuss careers and opportunities in the environmental field with interested students.

I am happy to assist with essay, technical, or creative writing. These skills are crucial and 100% learnable, so let's get there together.
Susan
Elementary School Reading Tutor • +18 Subjects
My teaching style is to create an approach to learning by maximizing your child's strengths and understanding your child's learning style. I have experience using these techniques and have a strong educational background that emphasized this model for learning.My specialty includes using phonics and site-word recognition teaching techniques for a child who is struggling with reading competencies. Such instruction incorporates focus on the acquisition of reading comprehension, spelling, writing, speaking, listening and study skills, as well.I am an avid reader and very much appreciate the importance of helping a child unlock the joy reading. I will do this by using individualized, interesting, multi-sensory activities to motivate and excite any child to want to read. Allow me, to help you, to help your child improve upon reading skills while seeing progress being made in the process.
Phillip
Algebra Tutor • +52 Subjects
I enjoy being on the other side of education as a tutor while still improving my own understanding of the subject.Upon graduating from college, I developed tutoring skills while helping high school students prepare for their SAT II Subject Exams, covering wide ranges including math, biology, and chemistry. I was responsible for elaborating on answers using relevant figures and innovative examples, creating catchy mnemonics, and solving problems from students' point of view. As a tutor, I remained accessible but maintained an appropriate distance to earn students' respect, and five out of ten students improved their scores by more than 200 points. Through these teaching experiences, I have learned not only to become a teacher from the students' perspective, but also what it takes to be an effective educational provider and a mentor.While taking six medical school courses throughout my graduate school program, I have been able to practice and enhance teaching methods by organizing study groups that regularly conducted review sessions before exams, highlighting important concepts made during the lectures, sharing concise notes and outlines, bringing up pertinent and innovative questions, and academically stimulating my peers without any unwelcoming pressures. Through these learning and teaching environments, I have directly experienced what interactive measures really foster healthy learning environments.With these experiences and my avid passion, I am confident I will be a valuable asset to your student.
Miquon
Art Tutor • +27 Subjects
Literature, philosophy, and art are great, great passions of mine. I have taken several (IB, AP, and collegiate) courses in each and have received accolades for my high marks in all three disciplines. I have also taken a specialized course in Tutoring Theory during my undergraduate career, which was a rigorous semester-long workshop to train tutors for working in a walk-in tutoring center. The course was intense in its focus on all of the idiosyncrasies of formal tutoring - we even practiced ESL tutoring with students from Aichi, Japan. I have also served as a tutor in my university's library for both English and Philosophy. For art, I worked as a Teaching Assistant for Acting I, where the chair of the department has personally commended my work in the class. Most of all, however, I am delighted to share my learning with other students and hope that I can walk out of every session just as enlightened, intrigued, and happy as the tutee.

"When you want something, all the Universe conspires in helping you to achieve it." -Paulo CoelhoWhat you think about, you bring about. If you put all your focus, energy and positive thoughts toward whatever it is you want, you'd be amazed at what opportunities come knocking.Whatever it is, however it happens, if you want something badly enough, it's as if the stars re-align and are only too willing to give to you whatever your heart desires. Call it fate, coincidence, beginner's luck or whatever sits best with you, but when you put that time and energy into something with all you have, you will manifest it into your life.Everybody has their own backgrounds in life, such as their beliefs, experiences, and interests. My main occupation is education. I came to America as an international student from Uzbekistan. I started taking classes and started talking to people to help improve my English. To be more confident at my workplace, I worked hard to speak English more fluently. I believe that I have a positive, strong and helpful type of personality. I believe that my personality, among knowledge and other talents, will help me to encourage students to learn and improve the Russian language.I graduated from the Tashkent Agriculture University in Uzbekistan and received an economic degree. I worked as an accountant in Uzbekistan. All classes I took in the Russian language. I believe that I can share the Russian culture, tradition with my students. I then studied and worked in Germany for a year. In 2009, I came to the United State of America with the "Work and Travel" program. I was raised by the principles of believing in yourself if you want to achieve something. Believing in yourself is the key part of building relationships, making decisions, deciding who your friends are and where you want to be in life. I can help my students to learn Russian language, even they think it impossible.
Sara
Elementary School Tutor • +12 Subjects
I received my Bachelor of Science degree in Inclusive Elementary and Special Education, as well as History, from Syracuse University. After graduation, I began teaching full time as a Special Education Teacher at the high school level, co-teaching a variety of subjects, while also attending classes on a full time basis to complete my Master of Science degree in Inclusive Special Education: Multiple/Severe Disabilities at Syracuse University. After completing my Masters degree, I switched gears and moved to teaching at the elementary level, working as a full time co-teacher in 2nd, 4th, and 6th grades. After obtaining tenure and teaching for a number of years, I left the k-12 classroom to begin work on a doctoral degree in Special Education and Disability Studies at Syracuse University, which I am currently completing coursework towards. As a graduate student in this program, I have taught a number of undergraduate and graduate courses situated within the School of Education. Having taught across a variety of grade levels, both k-12 and collegiate, I tutor in a variety of areas. In particular, I have strong writing skills myself and am able to provide students with a great deal of support in written expression. As a tutor who was a former Special Education Teacher, my forte is in differentiating instruction to meet the needs of each learner and bring a variety of engaging teaching strategies to each tutoring session. In my spare time, I love to surround myself with nature, spending time in the woods with my two giant dogs.
