...gratifying. I have a proven track record for student achievement. One of my students achieved the highest score in her school on the Social Studies State Exam. In addition, my students improved by 30% after only 20 tutoring hours (on average, comparing pre-assessment and post-assessment scores). I have experience tutoring grades 1-8, but I really shine with elementary students. I strive to help students reach the next level; whether they are struggling to keep up,...

Kristen: Smithtown Literature tutor
Certified Literature Tutor in Smithtown, NY
I have experience working with students of all ages, and what that has taught me is the importance of patience. Not every topic comes as easily to some students as others, and patience is essential. Additionally, I believe in carefully evaluating a student's history, progress and study habits to create an individualized approach for each student to best fit their needs. My specialty is in English test prep, and creative & essay writing.

Eugene: Smithtown Literature tutor
Certified Literature Tutor in Smithtown, NY
I started tutoring at Middlebury College. I tutored college students for a political science class as well as a creative writing class. The funny part is that while I always enjoyed writing and had a passion for it, I was never very good. I had my problems with my own writing and certainly not, at first, qualified to tutor anyone else in it. In fact, my first creative writing class I took at Middlebury, my...

...to listen to my students. In addition, I am compassionate, patient and I realize that each student is an individual with different learning styles. I actively consider my students' needs when planning lessons to ensure that their goals are met. I believe that regular assessments are integral for monitoring progress. Assessments can be formal or informal, but they are necessary to check for understanding as well as to evaluate strengths and weaknesses.
