Award-Winning IB Mathematics: Analysis and Approaches Tutors for Students in White Plains, NY

...Sciences, graduating in 2017. I also have experience with New York prep schooling, having graduating from Horace Mann School in 2013. I've taken many standardized tests, including the GRE and SAT and even the MCAT. I am highly experienced with the inside knowledge and tips and tricks of standardized test-taking and I feel like I can help students with the psychology of test-taking in addition to learning the material. I'm fun-loving and am married to...

...including day-to-day substituting in Brookline and long-term class coverage in Boston, as well as experience in private, non-essential education (teaching with Education First in Quito, Ecuador). While I very much enjoy classroom teaching, the one-to-one or small-group teaching I did with Education First is something that I found to be most rewarding. Really being able to form close relationships with a small number of students and helping them grow was amazing. I aim to build...

...find that understanding the clause structure of any language, ancient or modern, analytic or synthetic, is crucial in intuitively understanding the meaning of a sentence. In history I try to help students understand the "historical method" as easily as possible through exposure to historical sources and understanding of their uses--I also frequently approach history from a so-called "bottom-up" or microhistorical approach, which I've found in teaching Roman Republican history can be very useful for students...

I studied Sociology and Education Studies at Yale University, and I try to learn something every day! I hope to help you unlock the fun and rewarding parts of learning something new!

...students for these exams, as well as for AP Latin. Some highlights of my educational and teaching background are that I've graduated from Reginald Foster's demanding program in Rome for the practice of oral Latin and daily sight reading and obtained my B.A. with honors in Greek and Latin literature. I also did post-graduate training with Dr. Stephen Daitz, the foremost scholar on the classical pronunciation of ancient Greek and Latin. I received an award...

...Madrid, Spain, during my semester abroad in the Spring of 2014. I love traveling as well and am extremely excited to be returning to Madrid in September on a Fulbright grant to be an English Teaching Assistant at the high school level! My approach to tutoring has always been about understanding each student's individual style as a learner to create lessons best-tailored to his or her specific needs. I try to foster an environment where...

...Kenya, teaching at an all-girls school. I greatly enjoy tutoring both history (and related social studies) and mathematics because I see them as two different ways of telling stories about the world in which we live. Tutoring history means building stories out of a collection of facts, a love of places, peoples, and cultures both near and far that I learned young while describing my family history - with a father from Cape Town, South...

...public speaking. I strive to understand each student's strengths, weaknesses, and motivations, and to devise a personalized plan based in not just results, but personal accomplishment and goal-setting. Two of my biggest passions are learning new things and working with people. Combine those two together, and you get the exact reason why I'm here. I want to motivate and push you to accomplish what you previously thought impossible both inside and outside of the classroom...

I am a graduate student at Columbia University studying Quantitative Methods in Social Sciences.

...moved to New York City this fall! I love tutoring and teaching students, and I have worked with a number of educational programs, from boarding schools to Americorps. I specialize in languages (English, French, German, Latin, and Ancient Greek) and test prep.

I care deeply...

...teaching fellowship in Colombia, where I taught high school English. I am currently interviewing for medical school for matriculation in August 2017. I have a variety of teaching and tutoring experiences, including working as a self-employed tutor, an organic chemistry teaching assistant, and a high school English teacher. I primarily tutor math, science, the MCAT, and Spanish. I recognize that success in school depends on study habits and techniques as much as understanding material, so...

...specialities are General Chemistry, Biology, and SAT test prep. To share a little more of my background: I graduated with honors from Wesleyan University in 2008 with my BA in Film Studies and then went on to complete a Post-Baccalaureate Pre-Medical program at Hunter College. I expect to enter medical school in 2016 and until then am enjoying this chance to pass on the material I've learned to other students! Since I came to the...

...very passionate about teaching younger children. I enjoy coming up with creative ways to make learning fun for children. This passion stems from teaching my 8 year old sister. I tutor a broad range of subjects but I am especially passionate about math, English and essay writing. As a writer myself, I understand the importance of developing proficient writing skills and I am passionate about helping students develop a interest in the art form that...

...to recreate vast quantities of a specific chain of DNA, a feat that would be almost unheard of a mere fifty years ago. The possibilities are endless. I dedicate entire summers to science research, to take advantage of such resources. Whenever I create a hypothesis, it seems there are always techniques that allow me to substantiate my claim. The extraordinarily complex processes of biology are then wonderfully simplified. But there will always be a degree...

...between undergrad and law school, I had about as wide a range of experiences as you could imagine. I taught English in Thailand for a year and upon coming home to New York, worked in fundraising for a nonprofit for a year before entering the public sector in marketing at a media agency. Since returning from Thailand, I have really missed teaching. I get tremendous satisfaction out of knowing that I am helping people learn...

I live in Brooklyn and work as a museum educator at The Frick Collection.... The first...

I look forward to helping students improve their test scores! I graduated from UC Berkeley and Columbia Law. I self-taught to achieve a perfect verbal SAT score and an LSAT score in the 99th percentile. Test taking is a skill and, like any skill, you can improve significantly through practice and learned techniques.

...am currently a 4th year medical student with plans to pursue Ob/Gyn after graduation in 2022! For me, tutoring is one of the most rewarding opportunities! I love connecting with students and empowering them to get to where they want to be academically. My students have ranged in age from as young as 6 years old to college-aged. I've been tutoring individually for over 8 years now, and I specialize in helping students with chemistry,...

...University-New Brunswick, pursuing a degree in Computer Science and Business Analytics & IT. Some of the subjects I tutor are Algebra, Calculus I & II, and the SAT, but there are many more you can inquire about.
