Award-Winning Middle School Math Tutors for Students in Manhattan, NY

...as a student didn't end when I left the classroom. I am constantly combing over my knowledge of all subjects of mathematics from the most basic to the most advanced in an effort to refine my knowledge and my teaching methods. I like to teach math the way I wish I was taught growing up; I always wanted to know "why?", and I wasn't always given an answer. Because of this, I've spent a lot...

...a child individuality and helping them become his or her own person. Helping them develop skills and basic knowledge to become the person they one day set out to be. Encouraging them to never give up and to live a humble life filled with positivity and to have faith in something far greater than themselves. As a child, I had also received tutoring because I needed the extra help. Tutoring gave me the help I...

My name is Jenna and I am a junior presidential scholar at Villanova University. I am pursuing a double major in finance and business analytics and a minor in Spanish as a member of the Honors Program.

...1-on-1 tutoring company and then I eventually took an in-person job at a tutoring center which had a classroom-like environment. Most recently, I took another online teaching job where I taught 1-on-1 and group sessions in Math and Computer Science topics. My reason for tutoring is that "aha" moment that students have when they finally understand something. It is so satisfying to see someone finally grasp something as a result of their and my work....

...Science. I did not discover my passion for these subjects until college (I was admitted to Columbia as pre-law for my writing), and I wish I had been exposed to the fun aspects of these subjects at younger age. Often we are discouraged from science and math while young by phrases like "I'm just not a math person," when the reality is that everybody learns math differently. These subjects are my favorite to tutor because...

...Spanish. I completed my graduate degree at CUNY Hunter in Education. I have a love for learning and teaching. I learned Spanish in college through experiences studying in Mexico and Costa Rica. Traveling, meeting new people, and learning different cultures are my passions. Learning should be fun. I strive to ensure that students enjoy learning. I am an active person; I bike-ride, scuba dive, and work-out. Learning is a mental work-out: fun but also a...

...childhood leukemia, and I plan on attending medical school in the next year. I specialize in tutoring a broad range of subjects including chemistry, biology, and physics, as well as math subjects like algebra and calculus. I also tutor for standardized tests like the SAT, ACT, AP tests, and the MCAT. I sincerely believe that while some of the concepts presented in these subjects and tests seem initially very difficult, they become much less intimidating...

...I have become quite skilled at what I do. I am accustomed to the busy environment in tutorial centers, as I have worked for many over the past few years, but I believe that individual, specialized assistance, where the student receives a tutor's undivided attention, is vital for a student's academic success. As a tutor, it is my duty to ensure that my students become proficient in, and eventually master the subject areas they need...

...is Karan, and I am a first year student at New York University, intending to study Computer Science/Mathematics. I grew up in New Jersey where I tutored students K-12 at a Kumon Math and Reading Tutoring Center in my hometown for about a year. I got to work with kids of all ages, though I specialized in teaching math to the older kids. I am eager to continue tutoring through Varsity Tutors now that I...

I'm a graduate of Columbia University with a B.A. in History. I'm passionate about history and English, but I'm a competent math tutor as well. I have received outstanding scores on my SAT and AP tests, and am confident in my ability to pass on these skills to the next generation. Whether it's standardized testing or academic tutoring, I am happy to help students reach their goals and achieve their highest potential.

...the solution of complex equations. This experience allowed me to build a strong base of knowledge in math as well as taught me the idea that a strong foundation leads to success in whatever one???s learning. I initially began tutoring at Pacific University as a Freshman to strengthen my knowledge in the fundamentals of math and chemistry as well as making sure that the students I taught grasped the fundamentals. Though that was my initial...

...way of coping with a reality we weren't ready to face nor knew was coming. We were close to graduating, had poured everything into our education, but all-in-all we were not ready for college. We didn't even know where to begin on exams that we spent an entire semester preparing for. I knew I was educated in an overcrowded, low-ranking school district, but living in the "honor's track" bliss; I didn't realize I wasn't receiving...

...a career as a dentist. I have been a tutor for 4 years and have tutored students in Math, English, Biology, Chemistry, and Organic Chemistry. I enjoy tutoring all subjects; however I especially enjoy tutoring the sciences. Tutoring students in subjects they struggle with brings me a great joy and I truly love what I do. I understand how it feels to struggle through a subject, but getting through the struggle is the best part...

...learn math is to learn the approach and steps to the problem. The most important thing is to understand why the approach is taken this way or another way. Math is an interesting subject as there are many routes to solve a problem. My goal is to show the quickest/efficient way for students to understand easily and sometimes I will create inventive ways to help students possibly memorize formulas or solve the problems. I hope...

...even a tutor can grow with the student in the process. This is because relaying information is, of course, a two way street and in that process the student learns the information that he/she wants to and the tutor finds out how best to incorporate information into the tutoring sessions. As a tutor I try to be aware, first and foremost, that different students have different learning styles and needs. What is more important is...

...believe that education is not simply the memorization of facts and their regurgitation, but the method by which a person learns to pursue their passions. As a tutor, my aim is to do whatever it takes to light that fire and keep it burning. Through scientifically documented means, the student can begin to take control of their education and use it as a means to pursue their goals in school and in life.... I aim to...

...tutored elementary, middle school, and high school students, and greatly enjoy working with each age group. Outside of class, I enjoy programming games, filming movies, and performing in sketch comedy shows I've written. I love Spanish culture and travelled to Spain on foreign exchange, eating Spanish food, visiting landmarks and museums, and only communicating in Spanish. Seeing a concept "click" for a struggling student time and time again motivates me to teach and reaffirms by...
