...sincere, honest, respectful, courteous, and have a thirst for knowledge. I have been tutoring children since a young age, as I started in my family with my niece and nephews. I tutor mostly math and science subjects. My favorite subject would be math because there is always a definite answer for every question that can be found by doing some calculation. I believe in delivering clarity in subjects based upon individualism. Every child is different...

I will teach you not only how to be a better learner, but how to be more confident in your academic pursuits.

I graduated with honors from UC Berkeley's English program. While in college, I worked as a tutor, designing lesson plans and teaching accelerated classes for elementary to high schoolers within a day-time tutoring program. This included standardized test prep as well. My biggest priority as a tutor is helping you find the confidence and belief in your own ability. This, I've found, has the biggest impact on a student's performance.

...alike and everyone brings unique and specific situations to the teacher/student relationship. Learning is not a "one size fits all" process and curriculums vary as do the individual needs of each student. I teach a number of subjects from grammar school through high school and some college level courses. My areas of focus are American and European History, world Religions and cultures, English grammar and literature along with Micro and Macro economics and business. I...

I am able to teach mechanics, vocabulary and grammar, all while helping lead the student through...

...Columbia in August. I am about to complete a year of service with City Year, an education non-profit that places young adults into under-served schools. As a City Year member, I worked full-time in the classroom with middle-school students who were in approximately the 10th percentile for math (meaning they score lower than 90% of students). One-fourth of those students were able to grow around 15 percentile points by the end of the year!

As a psychology and philosophy double major turned lawyer, I am highly interested in all manner of scholarly pursuits. Be it Elon Musks's neuro-link or the effects of climate change on our society and laws, I'm interested and love learning about it and discussing it with others.

I provided support for English classes at the eighth and ninth grade levels, for all subject matters in a third grade classroom, and for all elementary ages in a science classroom. I immensely enjoyed these opportunities to work closely with young minds and to impart the knowledge and strategies I had learned as a student. English composition, mechanics, and grammar, as well as literature and social studies,...

...is for these reasons that I so value positivity and creativity within my tutoring sessions; learning should be challenging in a positive way, not in a way that brings frustration or low self-confidence. Prior to moving to New York to work in the NYC Public School system, I worked with grades 9-12 in the Match Tutor Corps, a program dedicated to supplementing classroom learning with small group or one-on-one tutoring. My previous experience has also...

From movies, to books, to music, there are many ways to keep practicing the language at home.

My comfort with Spanish and Italian and my flexibility as a tutor have enabled me to be successful in tutoring these languages. Another...
