Award-Winning Gifted Tutors serving New Rochelle, NY

...this career wasn't going to fulfill me in the way I thought it would. I thought back to my babysitting, nanny, and tutoring jobs and realized that nothing else in my life had ever made me feel as gratified as creating an environment for children to grow, feel nurtured, and learn. Children taught me so much about myself in my young adulthood and the idea of being an educator where I could make a career...

I believe an instructor is supposed to inspire a passion for learning. Through my teachings, I impart to students that learning is less about natural talent and more about hard work and dedication. My lessons are dialogues, I have a conversation with the student to pinpoint their exact academic needs, and make not only show help them where they're having trouble, but also give them the tools to do so on their own.

...recently graduated from Vanderbilt University with a degree in Education Studies and English. While at Vanderbilt, I learned the best practices for developing literacy in secondary education students. At school, we examined the problems with deficit learning, a type of teaching all too common in schools today. Deficit learning focuses on what a student doesn't know, what (s)he isn't able to do. This kind of instruction can be overwhelming for some students. That's why I've...

Compassion and patience, with recourse to humor, are certainly invaluable for a tutor. I have always been able to do well in academic settings and test-taking. Much of this success derives from long-hours devoted to assignments and preparation, but...
