Award-Winning IB Mathematics: Analysis and Approaches Tutors for Students in East Orange, NJ

...industry experience and five years as a professional sailor, I have a lot of appreciation for how the world around us works. From the simple process of doubling a recipe, to finding the optimum angle between wind and current to win a sailing race, to deeper questions about the workings of the cosmos, I hope to help students understand and internalize just how important (and useful!) an education in math and science really is!

...very seriously the project of motivating that outlook. I am of the belief that cultivating genuine investment in the material is the most pleasant and productive path to performance on the relevant tests. Outside of my academic curiosities, I still have a weakness for two of my teenage passions: skateboarding and snowboarding. They've prevented me from growing up too fast. The plan is to give them up when my knees give out.

Hey! I've recently moved to New York City from Wisconsin and am excited to be tutoring out here. I went to the University of Wisconsin (Go Badgers!) where I completed a double major in Business Marketing and Music Composition. I can't wait to work with you and help you to achieve your learning goals!

...more fun than just regular math and english. I genuinely believe that education is a privilege and a vital part of life. Without education, we would not be able to get anywhere in the world. This belief is something that I tend to base all of my teaching methods on and is also something that I very strongly believe in. In my spare time I love photography and dance. I also enjoy playing golf and...

...get to know students and gear the lessons toward their interests, which helps them learn more quickly, retain new skills better, and enjoy the tutoring sessions more. I particularly enjoy teaching science, writing, and test prep. With test prep I've found that supplemental work on fundamental skills helps students improve their scores much more than working through a test prep book alone. Watching students develop confidence in their abilities and improve their performance makes my...

...in 2014 with a degree in Economics. I truly love helping people learn! I believe it is important to break material in to small, understandable pieces at first to help students not feel so overwhelmed. I understand that sometimes students just need to find new ways to look at the material when they are struggling to help them better understand the concept. One must be aware that there are different ways that ideas can click...

...B.S. in Computer Science and the University of Illinois Urbana Champaign with an M.S. in Data Science. I have a passion for tutoring in an immense amount of subjects /standardized tests/essays, and helping others gain a greater sense of the material they are trying to master. More specifically, I love helping other students work through the intricacies of mathematics and programming problems and I strive to try to make myself smarter and more insightful through...

...standardized test preparation and English composition and literature, I also have a great interest in mathematics and have experience in teaching it as well. Though I tutor in a variety of subjects, I am most passionate about English, literature, and history. My approach to tutoring stresses deeper understanding of topics and underlying concepts, as opposed to learning just to pass test questions. I further believe in teaching towards individual student's learning styles and adapting towards...

...teaching Spanish, French, and English/ESL for several years. I have a BA degree in Spanish Language and Literature from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and a Masters degree in Spanish Language and Literature from Harvard University. I also have a graduate certificate in Translation from Brandeis University. I enjoy teaching languages to students of all ages and making learning a language a fun and interactive experience. I look forward to tutoring you soon.

...testing, but I especially enjoy tutoring in the areas of English, literature, and writing. I believe in creating a specialized tutoring plan to address the particular needs of my student. My emphasis is on creative (and hopefully fun) learning techniques that engage my student and help him or her confront problem-solving in a way that best suits his or her learning style. When I am not tutoring, I enjoy reading fiction, going to the movies,...

...just the right book - a book that will help to spark a lifelong love of reading in them. I firmly believe that the way to get better at reading is to read something you love, and good writers are avid readers too. I spend a lot of my day job coaching students through research-based papers, but it's always a great experience to work with other types of writing, from polishing a knock-your-socks-off college essay...

...from Lehigh University with a B.A. in Computer Science and a minor in Theatre. In the fall, I'll be attending law school at Columbia Law, and I hope to pursue cybersecurity law while I'm there. I have a ton of experience tutoring in many different areas, however my specific specialty areas are Computer Science, Math (up to Calculus 2), and test prep. I love theatre, music, and video games, and I love learning new stuff!

...both elementary school students, in an environmental education camp, and fellow college students, as a peer tutor. In these positions, I found great gratification in seeing a student have an epiphany in learning. I promote this learning by making analogies and other connections that the student not only relates to, but also finds interesting. In this manner I am not only able to make lessons exciting, but I also become energized myself. In the end...

...try to inspire this love in my students. I enjoy seeing people thrive and grow and understand that patience and positivity goes a long way. I look forward to helping you take your education to the next level. I have experience working and volunteering with pupils of all ages, ranging from 4 to 35. I have worked one-on-one and in small groups. My favorite moment in a session is when a student lights up after they...

...to not only prepare students to exceed academic standards but also to be critical thinkers and curious, well-informed human beings. I recently completed a dual degree at Indiana University and moved to New York to take a gap year before beginning graduate school. As a scholarship student at IU, I majored in economics, cognitive science, and piano performance. Outside of tutoring, you can find me playing or teaching piano, doing jigsaw puzzles, watching TED talks,...

...working for an alternative investment strategies company as well as a full time graduate student at NYU studying real estate investing and financing. I graduated from Marist College with a Bachelor of Science in finance. I started tutoring and helping others during high school. Then upon starting college, I became a tutor for languages, mathematics, and most business classes. In my free time, I play the piano, take pictures and play tennis.

...and I love the objectivity of math. My teaching style is to try to understand the perspective of the student and where they are getting confused, so I can more effectively explain the concepts. I also like to focus on teaching an understanding of the subject instead of just pure memorization, because I think that is the best way to actually learn and remember. Some things that I am interested in outside of academia include...

...income communities support in language, literacy skills, and social-emotional competencies. While I have experience in a broad range of subjects, my favorite subject to tutor is math because of the systematic methods involved. My job as a tutor is to provide resources for my students and to guide them when they need help. I believe that the best kind of student is one who wants to improve as much as I want to help them....

...passion and my philosophy is do what you love. I've been working as a tutor for most of my life and I love interacting with new people! I am fluent in both Mandarin (Traditional) and English. I spent my high school years volunteering at English learning camps where I would teach English, dance, and art to kids who did not have access to these subjects. In my experience, I've learned that staying engaged and having...
