I'm sure many of you have heard the phrase "You'll need math in your lives." It may seem merely repetitive at first, but as I gradually developed my interest for math, little did I know the symbolism within that phrase has risen. To some, one's inspiration could be their parents, singer, or a politician. For me, my math teacher is my greatest inspiration. There are 3 magical words that he has spoken that have been engraved in my head: "Math is life." Eventually, I understood what he meant. Life will be filled with problems but along with that will be solutions. Anyone can find their way out of puzzling situations just like how one can solve a complex math problem. With that powerful motto stuck in my head, I've developed an interest in tutoring. Starting freshman year of highschool, I have been tutoring kids ages 5-14 in math subjects in a program called A Grade Ahead. I've created engaging lesson plans while also answering any questions they have on the material they have learnt. I aim to enhance students' problem solving skills and maximize their learning potential. Throughout the learning experience, I have also gained communication skills to help the profound students understand the material while also encouraging them to realize how fun learning could be. For me, it is important to not only educate the students but connect with them as well. If there is stronger communication between a tutor and a student, there will be less difficulties for the student. At the end of the day, I strive to make sure the students leave with all their questions answered.

I have been tutoring middle school through high school (and even some college) students for over 25 years. While my college major was physics, math and physics did not always come easily to me. My tutoring style comes from the many great teachers who I learned from as well as techniques I developed to make these difficult subjects not only manageable but FUN! Long word problems and many formulas can often seem overwhelming. I show students how to take a deep breath and break down long problems into their constituent parts so that solutions and concepts become easy. Most of my tutoring has been at the high school level, beginning after college with my alma mater, the Hun School of Princeton, and later for In Home Tutors in Atlanta, GA where we lived for many years. My manner is easy-going and I enjoy interacting with and getting to know each student so that our collaboration is never tedious and something each student will look forward to!

Hi! I'm Emily. I'm working on my Master's Degree in International Relations. I studied Art History and Political Science in college, and I'm fluent in Spanish. I love all things art and art history, and I love going to art museums across the country. I have a lot of experience with tutoring of all ages, and I can't wait to help you learn!

I graduated from Nova Southeastern University with a Doctorate in Education in Distance Learning and Instructional Technology. I also have a Masters Degree in Special Education, specifically in Administration of Early Intervention Programs, from the University of Phoenix. At Bachelors level, I studied Visual Arts and Teaching English as a Second Language. CuTeacherrrently, I'm a certified Bilingual and Spanish from the state of Texas. I have taught at all levels: from PK to university level. In addition, I have trained and work as a coach for other teachers. I've also taught adults that want to become better English/Spanish speakers in an university setting. I've worked in other educational areas like being a Consultant for the Puerto Rico Department of Education, where I had to write official letters in name of the Secretary of Education and as an Educational Project Manager, where I designed and administered innovative education projects. Educate has being my life and passion.Every person has a unique learning style. Through the years I've been working as a teacher I've learned that school systems aren't designed to fit everyone. Don't worry if your kid seems not to fit. That's why, through tutoring sessions, a unique study program can be specifically designed to help fill in the gaps they might have by teaching in an understandable way.

I have a BS in Physics with my specialty being astrophysics. I plan on returning to graduate school and making my life long career the study of physics and the universe around us. I have a passion for helping others understand the world around us, whether that is helping someone to understand a concept or working myself to understand new concepts. I have tutored many high school students while I myself was in high school. I have come to realize that often struggles in a particular subject are not the student, but a lack of concept building blocks. Many times students are taught to memorize facts and methods, and when posed with new questions they don't have the tools to actually apply them. Supplying them with the fundamentals and first principles allows them to build upward in their skills and actually learn the concepts behind what they are working one. I found in high school that so many do not learn the basics and it tints how they learn more advanced subject matter.

At the ripe age of 19 I left school and employment to go serve as a missionary helping others. I was called to serve in Chile for two years, I did not return home for the entirety of the time I served. I love teaching and helping others understand concepts that they have struggled with. The feeling when a student "gets it" or the "lightbulb" moment is one that is very rewarding I feel it is one of my callings in life to help others overcome their difficulties. The purpose of teaching is not to pour information into the minds of students, but to invite and inspire the student to apply the knowledge to multiple situations and be inspired to seek further knowledge. I make a conscious effort to be friendly and connect with all those who seek my help.

I am a recent graduate and obtained my bachelors of science degree at the University of Houston with a major in Communication Sciences and Disorders. The aspect of helping others has truly made a difference in my life and that is what I plan to do if given the opportunity to become a tutor. I have had prior experience in special needs tutoring and I am currently tutoring at least three kids that have autism with subjects like math, reading and writing and most importantly, social skills. I possess strong qualities, such as determination, patience, positivity, and perseverance, which show that I am a dedicated and well-committed individual, willing to keep continuing forward and to never give up.

I am a certified special education teacher with the NYCD0E and I have been teaching for eleven years working with children from second through fifth grades. I graduated from St. John's University with a masters in special and general education and have another masters from Queens College in literacy for grades 5 - 9. I have also been an adjunct literacy and special education instructor at Manhattanville College, Bronx Community College and Queens College. My specialty is reading and writing and the subject of ELA and I also teach math, social studies and science at the elementary school level. I enjoy working with my students and I look forwarding to tutoring after school in these subject areas.

I have successfully taught elementary level children and ESL students for 21 years. I am certified in grades 1-6 with experience with Pre-K through high school. My subjects of tutoring are Elementary Reading, Writing, Math, Science, Social Studies, and Grammar. My major is English and, therefore, I can tutor in the area of Literature, Grammar, and Writing. I hold a Masters Degree in ESL and can tutor both adults and children in the acquisition of English.

I am a graduate of Harvard College, where I earned my BA, Cum Laude, in Economics and Government. I have also completed Columbia University's Certificate program in Business, and earned a Master's degree in Finance from Claremont McKenna. Currently I am working towards a JD at NYU's School of Law. Starting in college, I tutored students in economics and statistics, and also work with clients on subject test areas for the Advanced Placement exams, as well as standardized test preparation such as for the SAT I and II, GRE and LSAT. I especially enjoy helping students prepare for standardized tests because I remember how helpful a compelling guide and mentor can be during the often stressful process of testing and preparation for it. In addition to performing well on the exams themselves, I believe it is just as important for students to learn how to think calmly and confidently about these tests, so that they can help to serve students' broader educational goals. In addition to tutoring students - and being one myself - I enjoy keeping fit by boxing at the gym, reading mostly non-fiction, and rooting for favorite NCAA teams. I have had the opportunity to travel extensively abroad, and always enjoy learning about new cultures and peoples.
