Kendra

Elementary School Math Tutor • +6 Subjects

I am senior at Cornell University majoring in Philosophy and Government with minors in Law and Society and Near Eastern Studies. Hailing from Central New Jersey, I have had years of tutoring experience mostly focusing on the liberal arts for all ages. My priority is to create an interactive and adaptive learning environment in which each session I can familiarize myself with the student's needs and habits. The student steers the lesson and lets me know how I can help and I do my best to ensure each lesson is tailored to them personally. Learning is a vulnerable and valuable experience, one which I am honored to play a part in. Please feel free to ask about the relevant courses I have taken at Cornell as well as my experience in high school as a National Honor Society tutor.

Stanley

Expert Tutor

I am a graduate of The University of Pennsylvania. I received my Bachelor of Arts History. Since graduation, I have worked in organizations that seek to enrich and empower the lives of students regardless of their age, skill level, and, I have tutored the children of immigrants in Brooklyn and Manhattan while working with private clients all over New York City. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about Science, Mathematics, and History. In my experience helping struggling students prepare for Standardized Tests, we always seem to have the most fun (with remarkable advancements) prepping for the Critical Reading and Writing portions of the exams as well as the math component. I am a firm proponent of education, believing it to be absolutely necessary for an improved quality of life, and I try to impart this appreciation to all of my students. I make it my mission to impart to my students with the idea that they have the potential for greatness. I let them know with my words and actions that with the right nurturing, mentoring, and guidance they can become the best versions of themselves. I know that if they receive the necessary assistance and encouragement, they can achieve their fullest potential. In my spare time, I enjoy reading that which enriches my life, walking in the park, and the odd game of American Football.

Arianna

Expert Tutor

Hi! My name is Arianna Tabankin, and I am a pre-med senior at the University of Pennsylvania majoring in biology and minoring in chemistry and nutrition. I am graduating with honors (summa cum laude) and remaining at UPenn for a master's degree in public health. After two gap years I hope to continue on to med school. I have been a tutor for UPenn's Weingarten Academic Center for over three years and have hundreds of hours of experience tutoring biology. I also hold a mentorship position to help new tutors flourish in the program. I love to tailor tutoring sessions to best fit the needs of each individual student, whether that be more of a lecture format, doing practice problems, or creating a study plan together. Overall, I love learning about and teaching biology, so I find tutoring sessions to be a lot of fun!

Sara

SAT Tutor

I'm a rising sophomore at Columbia University, majoring in Mechanical Engineering. My journey as a tutor began in 10th grade when I ran volunteer tutoring labs in math, physics, and chemistry. I had classmates struggling with stoichiometry, peers needing an algebra refresher, or a group of panicked kids with a trigonometry test the next morning. With a wide range of needs and urgencies, I learned how to break down complex ideas into approachable steps, fill in gaps in their understanding, and tailor each session to meet individual needs. I've guided high schoolers through personalized ACT and SAT prep, sharing my tips/tricks and improving their current test-taking strategies. I completely understand that tough subjects can be overwhelming when one is confused; the learning journey typically leaves you confuzzled/frustrated. However, I'm here to clear the fog. I focus not just on getting the right answers, but on building real understanding. I'm prone to using odd analogies, clear explanations, and customized study strategies that meet students where they are. My goal is to make students feel confident in their knowledge and problem-solving strategy.

Thomas

AP Calculus BC Tutor • +64 Subjects

I graduated from Dartmouth College with a double major, receiving a Bachelor of Arts in both Biochemistry/Molecular Biology and Music. I continued my education at Columbia University and received Master of Arts in Biology. Starting in middle school and continuing through my graduate career, I have tutored students in a wide variety of subjects, but I was most effective at tutoring math and science because of my lifelong love and aptitude for these subjects. Since I am also working towards a career in molecular biology, I use math and science every day, and I can explain real-world applications and uses for these subjects that may not seem obvious. By demonstrating the use of math and science in everyday life, I am able to help interact with the student and increase their interest in a subject in which they may experience difficulty. I also believe that as a tutor, it is my responsibility to engage with the student to help them achieve and even surpass their goals. In my spare time, I am heavily involved with music in New York City, being part of multiple choirs and continuing to play piano. I also enjoy exercising and exploring the city whenever I have the chance.

Samuel

Middle School Math Tutor • +8 Subjects

I am a graduate of Brown University who tutors high school students via Skype or in person in the SATs, PSATs, and/or the SAT Math 2 Subject Test. I had a wonderful tutor for the SATs and for the SAT Math 2 Tests, so I understand how the standardized test tutoring process can be productive, fun, and ultimately successful. I also understand the importance of tailoring the process to the students individual abilities and needs. In high school, I tutored elementary school students in math, reading, and writing, and I tutored my classmates at my school's math center. I am passionate about film and film production, and in my spare time I also enjoy reading and basketball.
