Award-Winning Literature Tutors serving Huntington, NY

...schools in NYC and Europe, so that I have been exposed to different teaching and learning styles. I believe that it is absolutely true that every student learns differently--I am a very outgoing "people person" and that has helped me to make my students feel comfortable and to gauge how they learn best: by repetition on a regular basis or by going over different topics and then coming back to them; or by doing creative...

...am a passionate teacher looking to help students find the best learning and studying methods that work for them on an individual level! I love reading and especially history. As a student who struggled in math, I also love to work with students to develop strategies that work best for them! It is my genuine belief that everyone can be a lifelong learner if they are supported in their journey to understand their personal learning...

...as a Special Education teacher. I tutor all subjects at the elementary level (grades K-6) since that is where I gained most of my experience; however I can also tutor students in higher grade levels in reading and writing as well. I enjoy tutoring all subjects but would have to choose reading, writing, math, and social studies as my favorites. I love social studies because I love teaching children about the world we live in...

...to leave room for change. I learned early in my career that a teaching philosophy set as doctrine could serve as a hindrance to my ability to engage students, and it could serve as a hindrance to a student's ability to learn. The latter prompted me to see that teaching is circumstantial; i.e., we can each have our individual way of approaching a text or an assignment, but in the end, we must have an...

...of their situation was always much different. Nearly all teachers work tirelessly for their students, rarely thinking about much other than teaching--especially in their first few years. (I know, because I became a first-time teacher.) When I began teaching, this knowledge spiraled me into a state of profound reflection. For the first time, I took seriously all of the pressures on this position--out of school political fighting, in school political fighting, funding shortages, etc. It...

...student thinks and best learns, and from there I can either make the lessons more game-like or memory based. In every case, I approach the subject or concerning area from the most basic root and build from there. I have been working with children since middle school which made me a very patient tutor in college. Aside from helping my classmates, I formally worked as an English tutor through the Universidad Complutense, the Spanish University...

...gained the ability to analyze problems from many different perspectives and help others solve a multitude of problems. Although, what I bring to tutoring sessions is more than just a knowledge of academic material. Communicating effectively is the most important step in teaching and learning, and I always prioritize this in my lessons. Struggling in a course or before a test is never fun, but learning can be. I can help you get there!

...where I worked with students with autism in every subject; it was an extremely rewarding experience and greatly strengthened my teaching skills. Finally, I worked for Grade Potential Tutoring and tutored 2nd and 4th grade English and writing as well as GED prep. My past experiences make me confident that I can help all students become stronger and learn to love learning! I have a love for education and believe it is a great opportunity...

...I hope to share that with my students. Despite struggling with math and science throughout middle and high school, I declared my major in neuroscience because of how fascinated and challenged I was by the subject. I wish to inspire more students to appreciate the challenges that can arise when learning something new, and finding ways to self-motivate themselves to achieve their academic goals. Additionally, I am minoring in religion and art history, since I...

...from a post graduate year abroad in Taipei, Taiwan, and left being evaluated at an advanced level of written and spoken Chinese. I understand how difficult learning this language can be especially for high school students or for new learners because I remember I faced the same challenges when taking Chinese in High School myself. I am very passionate about teaching and look forward to passing on the knowledge that I have as well as...

...your magnifying glass, and pour over the dictionary. This type of curiosity has followed me into adulthood. I'm a full-blown Wikipedian. My rsum goes beyond tutoring. From grant proposals to album reviews, I've been published across disciplines. I've spent two years writing and editing for literary magazines. I've hosted a radio show focusing on philosophy and hip-hop. I've studied in Richmond, Pittsburgh, Salamanca, and Valparaiso. I believe tutoring happens on a case-by-case basis. I personalize...

...tired! It is incredibly hard to keep a steady level of interest and motivation if one is tired and unstimulated by their time at school. My favorite teachers were always the ones who were clearly passionate about the subjects they were teaching. Interactive demonstrations, real life examples, and sheer excitement about the subject always amounts to a significantly more engaged student. I hope to be a tutor that successfully engages students and makes them want...

...for America. I'm in New York studying theater and voice but miss my science classes and students like crazy! I'm particularly strong in biology but also totally comfortable with chemistry, English and writing, social studies/history, and test prep. As a teacher my style is to help students discover the answers on their own, and become more confident in their ability to use critical thinking. When I'm not tutoring you can find me running or playing...

...language and culture, political theory, and geography. I also follow international events very closely. I see these subjects as different facets of the great story of human history. It is impossible to truly understand the modern world without a grasp of centuries of history as well as the political theories that inform our view of society. Furthermore the history of a culture is written in its language. Without a knowledge of geography there is no...

...out of high school. I work every day to help my students increase their self-awareness, take on more responsibility, and learn how to self-regulate. I tutor English, ESL, and social-emotional learning. In college, I studied English and I had the wonderful opportunity to study abroad in Spain. I went on to attain my Masters in Special Education, 7-12 from CUNY Hunter College. Reading, writing, financial literacy, and literacy are all things that I focus on....

...for various subjects including writing and political science. I have also tutored per-calculus, biology, geometry, and SAT Math, reading, and writing. My strengths as a tutor are quickly analyzing student's learning habits and tailoring my approach to best suit their needs and skills.

I...

...last year in Chengdu, China on a Fulbright Grant studying the emergence of legal aid as a resource to female migrant workers. I work with students of all ages and experience levels.

My passion for the subjects I tutor enables me to enthusiastically engage with students, help them discover their strengths,...

...and I've studied Shakespeare extensively at Kings College London and at The Globe Theatre. I particularly love to teach English and Writing and Rhetoric, though I also have experience with Human Geography, Russian, French, and elementary school students. I'm big on habit building and using memory tools that aren't taught in most schools and make studying a whole lot easier. I also like to infuse the subjects I teach with excitement and engage a student's...
