...Computer Science, as well as a Bachelor's degree in Pure Mathematics. After graduating, I applied to the Master's program and was accepted as a pure mathematics student beginning in Fall of 2012. I have worked as a private in-home tutor during both my undergraduate degree and master's degree. Tutoring has typically been long-term, with a couple of short-term or one-off students. I tutored students between the ages of 11 to 16 years old, primarily with...

My hobbies include reading, running, and DJing. I love talking about popular music and, more generally, having conversations. As a tutor, I work to create a relationship with my students that is comfortable and friendly while also professional; I want my students to feel as...

...oldest of my 5 children, and I had difficulties to acclimate to our new life. I understand how difficult it is to learn a new language; more so, when it is a language that you don't use all the time. It is why I use different teaching methods in my lessons, incorporating the audible, the visual, and the spoken. When my children were old enough to attend school, I began to teach. We were living...

...they usually are able to grasp the "grammar rules" of a linear algebra problem before I proceed to formally state the theorem to be applied. While I continue today with my research work on probability models and my full-time college teaching, I enjoy guiding high school or older students, and middle school students beyond their grade level, through most mathematical subjects, statistics, management, and test prep. Now a long time New Yorker, I also enjoy...

I have eighteen years of experience as a research scientist and seventeen years of experience as a high school and college level science teacher. I have taught chemistry, physics and environmental science at all levels including CP, Honors, AP and Dual enrollment. I have also taught IB Chemistry and IB Physics (SL and HL). In addition, I have...

...an engineer for a year. Now I am going back to graduate school for Computer Science. I worked for "Say Yes to Education" for a year to help urban high school students to prepare for the SAT test and New York State regents in the Syracuse area. Helping students to work out questions with efficient methods instead of feeding them answers is my teaching strategy. With six years in higher education, I do know how...

...my time at the Mathnasium, I have learned many teaching methods and how to relate to students to get the concept across. I have experience with tutoring but more importantly, it is a passion for me. I love helping students cross the bridge in regards to concepts and get to the other side where they can understand and even teach others. As I start my career as an engineer, I did not want to forget...

...there is no correct way to tutor students, for every student has vastly different needs; therefore, I try to always teach in a way that specifically caters to each individual's specific needs. I strongly believe that a good education is key to a happy and successful life. Oftentimes, students just need the right person with the right teaching style for that education to be a fun, easy process. In my free time, I enjoy reading,...

...the most, by providing the the 1-on-1 attention they need. When I start with a new student, I first work to identify the gaps in their knowledge, and then methodically fill in those gaps to help them reach a stronger conceptual understanding. I want to help my students as much as possible. As part of my approach, I like to understand my students' long term academic or professional goals to make sure I'm working with...

...I graduated as the salutatorian from high school with regents' honors. I have excelled with 95%+ in all of my high school regents examinations. As a high school student I fell in love with Math & Science and frequently tutored my colleagues who were struggling with their classes. In my senior year of high school I achieved the NY1 Scholar Athlete scholarship and was placed on the NYC Chancellor's Honor Roll. I then went on...

...Education at CCNY. This is a seven year BS/MD program, so by the end of the seven years, I will have achieved both degrees. I have a lot of tutoring experience in the K-12 age especially in the 7-12 grade range. I have taught SAT, SHSAT, ACT, SAT subject tests and Regents exams as well. My favorite subject to tutor is math and biology, but I am able to tutor other subject areas like reading,...

...visiting museums and seeing the fascinating spots the city has to offer. I found an interest in tutoring in high school and continue it today because I love helping students understand material in a way that is easily understood by all. Nothing makes me more happy than the brightened face on a student content with working on a subject they previously struggled with. I work with all ages and abilities while striving to reach every...

...had some formal tutoring experience with students in high school and some of my fellow students in college, and I have tutored many informally throughout my education. I really like helping people understand math and fall in love with it like I did. Whenever I was studying math, there was always an "Aha!" moment when something makes sense and clicks. I really like seeing that moment in my students eyes especially when they realize how...

I have been teaching for over 3 years. That is something I love to do and it is what I see myself doing for the rest of my life.

...an MD-MBA after graduating college. If there is one thing that the pre-med track has taught me, there is nothing wrong with asking for help. I have participated in many tutoring sessions ranging from Biology to English, and I understand that tutors are quintessential. I want to be a tutor because I want to help other students as I was helped growing up. I wish to reaffirm to them that they are bright and that...

...immense amount of teaching experiences working with students from junior high school, high school, and college both undergrad and a few graduate. I know what it feels like when someone is having difficulty in a particular subject, they often get frustrated, angry, exhausted, and stressed after working on problem sets in physics and/or mathematics for an excessive amount of time and still cannot find a reasonable solution to solve the problem. There are also times...

...and tests for more than five years. I strive 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...

...currently a graduate student at NYU pursuing my Master's degree in Psychology. Before moving to New York, I completed my undergraduate degree at Stevenson University in Baltimore. During this time, I worked as a peer tutor for three and a half years, covering subjects such as math, writing skills, and psychology. While at Stevenson I also helped to pilot a program that worked with at risk students to strengthen their study skills and motivation.... In my...

...subjects I tend to find that students struggle with the core foundations, so when classes start to add on more complex theories or work, they get flustered. I want to ensure that the students are comfortable enough with the fundamentals, so they can apply these topics in more rigorous classes and succeed in the future. During the summer or the free time aside from school, I love to hang out with my friends and go...

...Vermont where I grew up on a farm. In Vermont I competitively ski raced and played on the Varsity Tennis team. I attended Middlebury College, class of 2015, where I majored in Economics and minored in French.
