Award-Winning Graduate Test Prep Tutors serving Mount Vernon, NY

...Social Sciences. I have a passion for education and I enjoy teaching and tutoring. Personally, I believe that educating a child involves much more than stating facts and hoping they listen. Children learn best when they are rewarded for trying (I am a big fan of scheduled positive reinforcements) and when they can why studying a subject is importance. I have worked in behavioral management and therapy for several years and I know how to...

...example in reading fluency and spelling, reading and listening comprehension, and mathematical reasoning and computation. I first gained teaching experience as a music teacher at Temple Emanu-El in New York with groups large and small. I also taught psychological statistics to undergraduates at Ohio University. Because I am an experienced writer and I scored in the 96th percentile on the verbal section of the GRE, I believe that is an area of strength. More important,...

...Literature. Before tutoring with Varsity Tutors, I tutored for another private company. I am an excellent tutor because I remember distinctly what it was like to be a student and can both empathize with their frustrations and help them to move past those blocks and toward a greater understanding of the material. I believe in my students and genuinely care about their success, which shows in my work. My patience and willingness to adjust my...

...High School. Recently, I tutored a few students for a SAT preparation program and came to enjoy it, especially in a smaller setting where the lessons can be catered to the individual needs of the student. For an English major, I'm very data driven, concerned with the most efficient ways for anyone taking tests to improve their score, as well as their opportunities for higher education. In my spare time, I enjoy writing, hiking, movies,...

...Biology labs for Undergrad students. Apart from Biology, I am very good in teaching math. I am good at solving them and helping others to solve them in the simplest ways possible. I always feel teaching is sharing knowledge. If I know something, the people who I teach should know all the things I know. If I can do it, my students can too. I am a very easy going friendly guy. I love watching...

...Master of Public Health in Health Policy with a concentration in Global Health. I also hold two Bachelors degrees - a B.A. in political science and a B.A. in biology - from Vassar College. I have been a tutor for twelve years and enjoy teaching very much. I have taught both graduate and undergraduate level courses at Yale as well as multiple courses at Oxford.

I believe the best student is also the best tutor. I am the kind that likes to engage my students in everything I teach them. I received my Bachelor's degree in Biology from Syracuse university, master's in biomedical science at Touro and currently at New York College of Podiatric medicine hoping to become Podiatric surgeon and expert in foot and ankle diseases.... We all love to read stories or watch TV shows with good story line....

I am dedicated tutor specializing in math and sciences. I have my doctorate in pharmacy and have an eclectic repertoire of subjects I am ready to help you pass!

...I rely on a Socratic, discussion-based method where I encourage my students to not only work through problems but to explain them back to me, to help build confidence in their own understanding of the material while cementing concepts in their minds. I also heavily emphasize developing intuition as opposed to rote memorization. If a student can learn the foundational ideas that underlie the sciences, they will be able to work their way through any...

...in the process of launching a small business. So in my spare time, I want to continue connecting to students by tutoring various subjects from math to English to test prep. As for test prep, I believe that most standardized tests don't test your ability in their stated subjects as much as they do your ability to take those tests. Therefore, it is critically important to teach not just the basic skills, but the ability...

...subject areas. I care deeply about helping students understand how math and statistics can be interesting and useful, and how they can leverage their own ways of thinking to motivate intuition about these topics. I believe that no one is "bad at math", and anyone can succeed with the right study plan! Outside of tutoring, I will start a job in the trading division of a large investment bank later this summer. I am also...

...speech-language pathology at Teachers College, Columbia University. In the past, I have worked as a teacher's aide in a public school classroom, a mentor to middle school girls, an instructor and tutor at the literacy education organization 826, and a summer camp counselor. I tutor a diverse range of subjects, and I find that I especially enjoy tutoring language arts, reading, and writing at all levels, from elementary school all the way up to college/grad...

I have also taught Speech, Psychology and Theatre on a collegiate level, as well as lower level English, ESL, Composition, Speech, and Theatre. I am available to tutor these subjects, along with other Humanities, from five years old through high school, college and beyond, including seniors!...

...I have always enjoying teaching as well as helping others which is why I was a math lab tutor for 2 years in high school, as well as working in the College Library Instructional Computing Commons at UCLA for three years. I have done some craigslist tutoring on the side with my friend Sindy who is an QKids English tutor. All in all, I believe I would be a good fit as a tutor, and...

...secondary school in the South Bronx, and I am the founder and director of IntegrateNYC4me.

...thrilled to offer my services as a tutor on this platform. As a graduate of the University of Chicago and a current Columbia Law student, I bring a wealth of academic experience and knowledge to the table. My expertise lies in guiding students through the LSAT and the GRE, two crucial exams that can pave the way to their dream graduate schools, just as they have for me. I am dedicated to empowering aspiring scholars...

...New Jersey where I spent some time teaching a class of 6th graders both English and Social Studies. Now as I work in New York City, I like to work one-on-one with students on a variety of subjects such as math, literature, and writing. I believe that individualized instruction is the best way to help struggling students "catch-up" and push on-level students even further. In my free time, I enjoy reading (especially young adult fiction...

I welcome...

I've tutored throughout high school and college and provide a patient, attentive learning environment for my students. I enjoy working with them on English, math, and test preparation.... Be patient and attentive.... I'd assess their learning style and current position. Then we'd set goals for what they'd like to achieve.

I am currently pursuing an MBA in healthcare. I graduated in 2017 from Johns Hopkins with a degree in biology. I have a heavy scientific and math background but also enjoy history and reading. I hope I am able to help anyone reach great academic success
