...apply those skills toward the ACT, SAT, and AP exams. In my opinion, positivity, creativity, and patience are crucial skills in effective education, and I strive to utilize them in all of my sessions. Additionally, I teach Arts courses at the Museum of the Moving Image, and have found that asking guided questions is a far more powerful method of learning and retention than is typically true of material taught through lecturing. I love humor...

The student should receive proper guidance and be provided with the tools necessary to achieve his or her learning goals, that's my job and responsibility as an instructor. I like playing the guitar and singing, I'm very much into music. Dancing is also an activity I...

...happen. Not the mere fact that mathematical formulas work but why they work and what that can achieve. This is what makes learning interesting for students and instructing a joy for teachers - the process and the dialogue. It doesn't mean learning is always fun - it can certainly be tedious at times for both parties. But this approach has, for me, been the most successful in demonstrating the value of continued study.

...is Justin McGowan. I am a senior at St. Joseph's College in Patchogue, NY majoring in History and Secondary Education. I have been tutoring on and off for the past three years. What I've learned the most is that there is no one size fits all approach and each student deserves specific time and energy devoted to them. In my spare time I enjoy reading, riding my bike, hanging out with friends, and playing or...

...certain rules. Being an English Major, I have had the luxury of taking a grammar based course, as well as multiple lessons in the rest of my classes. I use what I have learned to proofread students' papers, and do my best to explain techniques that may help for future assignments. Learning is a team effort. I always look for the best interests of my students, thus if there are any suggestions that parents or...

I tutor partially because I plan to teach professionally - I'm someone who is ultimately going to venture into academia, so it is something of a preparation for my future career.

After leaving St. Johns and completing two years of Business Administration at Queensborough Community College, I entered into the CUNY Baccalaureate Program for Unique and Interdisciplinary Studies as a Politics and Diplomacy major.

...past. I've enjoyed tutoring recently because it's a welcomed respite from the world of startups, and I love seeing students "click" when they've gotten past a mental roadblock, or discovered they could do something they didn't know they could. Among other things, I play the bagpipes, and enjoy reading and traveling. I've traveled to almost all 50 US states, and have been to over 20 different countries. I hope to be in touch soon!

...where in your thought process you can improve/reevaluate. I'm pretty easy going and like joking around. So there won't be much pressure and, for sure no judgement on my part. Everyone is coming from different places in their learning. I myself understand the difficulty of coming to understanding a topic. But it's possible ! :) Outside of academia, I like working out at the gym/running/cycling, drawing (see my insta @abigail_iturra_art), and lounging around with my...
