...helping Juniors and Sophomores help ace the SAT. My specialty is language and history, with an emphasis on Japanese, English, Latin, US history and World History, but I am also more than happy to help out those struggling with Algebra and Geometry. As someone who was once an ESL student himself, I believe that a good education rests upon the ability to comprehend, interact, and apply ideas. Besides academic matters, I am also fond of...

...is Chihiro. I was born and raised in Japan but I moved to the U.S. when I was 16 to study music on my own. I have been living in NYC for 17 years. As a professional musician, I have played in several Broadway musicals such as Miss Saigon, West Side Story, and Cinderella. I'm excited to share my knowledge about music whether if you are just learning how to read music or trying to...

I believe my scientific and academic backgrounds combined with my unique life experiences of travel and running my own business give me a unique perspective to educate students. My formal learning is not as a teacher or educator, but I think that helps to give students a different perspective to learning science, technology, engineering and mathematics. I have taught English in Japan and have tutored various Math and Sciences over the years.

...Board makes you sit in a room for it, I can probably help you out, and of course I have experience with New York's SHSAT. Most of my past tutoring experience was helping classmates with history, English and literature courses, and I've also led a few coding workshops. When I'm not working or reading, I usually can be found with video games and anime close at hand. Please reach out to me by email; I...

I've been tutoring since I was a freshman in high school, and I'm looking forward to continuing with Varsity Tutors. I believe learning can be fun, and never a chore!

...to examine and explore another culture, often in brilliant, intimate detail. Of particular interest to me are language studies, language acquisition, and the anthropological and sociopolitical threads that are so beautifully interwoven through the use of words and expression. Besides English, I speak (to varying conversational degrees) Spanish, German, and Japanese. Living in New York City, however, provides an amazing cornucopia of so many of the world's languages and cultures, and I take every opportunity...

I've always loved learning and have a passion to help others understand and learn as well! I want help break down intimidating concepts into simpler terms and help people understand how applicable these concepts are in their own life. Learning shouldn't be a drag-- it's fun!

I specialize in the Language Arts, such as Writing and Reading. I also help students in terms of organization and studying, as well as teaching Japanese. If your student needs help in any of these fields, then I will look forward to helping your students succeed!

...method of going through material but rather than set strict quotas for a student. I work with the student to help them with whatever problem they may have. It works because the student doesn't realize that they are being guided in the long run, but gradually the student may become more adept to the material. And surely, after a few weeks of tutoring, the processes to solve a particular dilemma, the steps would become second...

...through the college level in reading with fluency and a critical/analytical eye. This has lended me naturally into a writing tutor, allowing me to coach my students into becoming stronger writers. In working with students at the elementary level, I have also had the opportunity to explore Common Core expectations in ELA and Mathematics. Many of my students utilize Singapore Math, Go Math, Math in Focus, Eureka Math, or Prentice Hall Math curriculums, and I...

I am a rising third-year student at Trinity College Dublin, and I am working towards a degree in English Literature. I have a lot of practical test-taking and study skills to offer, particularly in high school and middle school academics and standardized testing! I also consider myself a well-rounded student, so though my passion lies in English and writing, I love to teach math, science, and history subjects as well!

...confident. While I will definitely sympathize with students, that does not take away from my firm belief that growth is 100% possible with dedicated effort. I will aim to foster a positive and (hopefully fun) tutoring environment, and am really excited to work with students of all ages. Outside of school, I spend my time reading, watching sports, and cooking whenever possible (but I'm not sure how qualified I am to tutor in the culinary...

This academic background, combined with hands-on teaching experience, allows me to bridge theory and practice in a way that connects with students. What motivates me is seeing students grow in confidence and independence. I tailor each session to the learner's goals, adapting my style to support their strengths and address specific challenges. My tutoring approach is structured, supportive, and...

My interest in numbers led me to a bachelor's degree in Actuarial science and a master's in Statistics with the focus on data analysis. I was on the Dean's Student Awards List the entire undergraduate years and in honor college during the first two years of study. While exploring my passion for statistics during my master's degree, I also have taken part in various financial classes and machine learning classes at Columbia.

As a person who learned a second language, I can relate to many difficulties that students experience. I am happy to help and share my experience. I am a native Japanese and have experience working in Japan. I have always been enjoying teaching both one-on-one tutoring and groups. Looking forward to seeing you.

...History, and Japanese. Writing is my favorite subject to tutor. I enjoy the fact that even the most dense research assignment asks the writer to take a stand. Very few subjects ask for a student's opinion, but writing asks for just that. I like guiding students to figuring out the right answer, instead of telling them. Working with students and prompting them to what they need to know allows what they've learned to stick, so...

...I've definitely run the spectrum of youth education in New York City! In my junior and senior years of college, I won English Department awards for playwriting and essaywriting, and my plays have been read and performed in theater spaces, including at the Thespis Theater Festival 2013. I also perform in Childrens' Musical Theater with the group FunikiJam! World Music (www.funikijam.com). I enjoy tutoring because I get to learn at the same time that I...
