...then tailor it based on their level of skill, interest, and progress. In the past, I've taught concert and church choirs, as well as musical theatre classes and private voice lessons. The ages ranged from pre-K and up (to about the late 60s), and anywhere from 1 student to 150. Outside of the teaching world, I write my own music.

I am a college freshman majoring in Mathematics and Astrophysics, and minoring in Computer Science. In Math, I have taken Linear Algebra and up to (and including) Calculus 4. In Physics, I have taken high level Mechanics and Electricity and Magnetism classes.

...to impart this enthusiasm upon my students. Previously I have worked as a tutor with the educational charity We Read Together, helping underprivileged youth gain valuable reading skills. I tutor a variety of subjects, mainly surrounding reading and writing. My favorite subject to tutor is probably reading, as I once struggled with reading and love seeing students succeed after struggling just as I did. In my spare time you can find me reading (especially comic...

...all over the world from South America to East Asia, and collectively have years of tutoring experience. These experiences have been as diverse as teaching English as a Second Language, students in underfunded school districts basic math and reading skills, and new mothers the test taking skills required to pass the GRE. Although I love teaching ESL, I am also experienced in teaching Verbal and Quantitative subjects as well as standardized test preparation. I am...

...teachers, I understand the relevant skills needed to teach a variety of students. I've spent time my entire high school career helping my peers with general school subjects and two years teaching swimming to younger children. While abroad, I've even taught English to Chinese students. For the fast and slow learners, I have experience with breaking lessons down so that students not only learn and remember the material, but also improve their scores.... My teaching philosophy...

Through Yale's Reach Out Program, Nailah traveled to Jamaica with a group of fellow students to lead community-center workshops for teenagers on health, domestic abuse, economic development and leadership skills. Nailah knows how important education has been in her life, in not only providing her with opportunities to explore the world and think deeply, but also by providing her life-long mentors. Some of the educators that first...

...my time management and successful studying methods as well as college/career path advising, if requested. I have experience in working with disabled children that have trouble with reading and memorizing, so I am a great match with any student that have difficulties focusing. When I teach, I always provide multiple examples during and between the sessions. I maintain positive attitude and make the student comfortable with the subject, but I do want my student to...

...and graded their exams. In the recitation, I answered their questions and set some specific problems for them to solve. I also worked in the Math Learning Center where I answered questions from different levels of students. During my time of tutoring, I tried to explain problems in a way that they could understand, not just copy the method from the book. Because I was majoring in Mechanical Engineering, I can handle most of the...

...miss working with children. I've been teaching dance since I was 13 years old, and teaching has been a big part of my life ever since. My favorite age group to teach dance to was 5-10 year olds and I would love that opportunity to work with kids again. I believe that every child is capable of achieving their dreams and just need a bit of support in order to get there. I would love...

...sessions enjoyable. Furthermore, I am passionate about the subjects I tutor in. I am most excited by subjects in the natural sciences with an emphasis on human anatomy, biology, and psychology. I have experience with the material through taking courses such as Biology Honors, AP Biology, Physics, AP Environmental Science, Chemistry, and Medical Terminology. Furthermore, I took an EMT course before becoming nationally certified EMT which afforded me knowledge in human anatomy. My main goal...

...because I genuinely find the work very rewarding. I have been teaching and tutoring informally for many years now, sometimes through established positions, but more often out of goodwill. I am a member of the Northeastern Downbeats, a co-ed a cappella group on campus. In the past, I played on my high school's ultimate frisbee team and captained my high school's badminton team. In my free time, I enjoy playing piano, watching TV, or playing...

...I have worked with high school science students as a National Science Foundation Fellow, and have been teaching college-level anthropology for the past two and a half years. I tutor in a number of subjects, including Anthropology, Anatomy, Earth Science, Reading and Writing. Above all, I believe that academic success starts with solid goal-setting, organization and breaking down material that feels overwhelming into easily accessible portions. When we do this, we can see information transform...

...all the way to 10th grade. I appreciate all subjects, but math is my favorite. I love to utilize different methods to help my students grasp the concepts they are learning since I believe everyone has their own unique style of learning. One of the most valuable things a person may possess in life, in my opinion, is education. I believe that learning should be both exciting and enjoyable. I look forward to demonstrating how...

...are biology (middle school through MCAT biology and college microbiology) and physics. Math and science are among the most daunting subjects for many students, but they're the most intuitive subjects at their core. Using a show-don't-tell approach to tutoring, I guide my students and give them the tools they need to discover first-hand the intuitiveness of these subjects. My hobbies include reading, slacklining (do a quick Google search, it's pretty awesome), bicycling, running, playing video...
