Award-Winning Physics Tutors in Hempstead, NY

...A Presidential Honors Scholar at New York University, I have benefited from many opportunities in my education, and I aspire to use my experiences to teach others. I have taken the SAT, ACT, and several AP exams, and I am a recipient of an award from the French Department at NYU. I first became passionate about tutoring in high school, when I would assist other students in mathematics. I also have experience working with elementary...

...as elementary school math, and high school and college physics. Largely due to my focus on mathematics, my favorite subjects to tutor are within these fields as well: while any opportunity to explain new mathematical concepts to students is a great joy to me, I find that the breakthroughs students experience in calculus and basic algebra (Algebra I or Algebra II) are the most exciting, and those subjects are correspondingly my favorite to tutor. When...

I am a student at the University of Michigan studying Aerospace Engineering. I tutor a variety of subjects, although I am most passionate about math and the sciences. I aim to teach both fundamental concepts and the ability to solve problems step-by-step with well-established methods. In my free time, I enjoy designing and flying high-power rockets competitively, playing the piano, and engraving glass.

...a number of strategies that I enjoy sharing with students studying for the SAT, ACT, and GRE. My favorite subjects to tutor are Spanish, writing, history, and math for all levels. I love helping students see their own potential for success and discover their strengths. Through patience and hard work, they can improve in areas they don't feel as comfortable and eventually gain the confidence to take any test with ease and certainty. I am...

...WHY CHOOSE ME? My gift is being able to connect with my student and explaining the lesson in a way that fits into his or her reality. Students tend to be averse to things that are not fun. I make learning fun. For my students I custom-tailor a curriculum based on my own scientific research into the nature of learning. I use a combination of excel including Gantt charts, spaced-repetition, critical thinking, and Socratic questioning....

...Mathematics. I have worked as a private tutor for the past 3.5 years, tutoring in a variety of high school and early college subjects. I frequently tutor in science and math subjectshaving taught just about every related subject offered in high school. I have a significant amount of tutoring experience, and I have produced positive results. Among the techniques I employ as a tutor, I stress self-help strategies to ensure that students do not become...

...applied Physics Major at Columbia Engineering. I have experience tutoring non-native English speakers in reading, writing, and math. Most of these students were in the elementary and middle school range and had to learn English while trying to keep up in school. I also tutor peers in Physics as part of our Physics department's volunteer tutoring program. I love succeeding at something after grappling with it, and I love watching others do the same.... I was taught to not stop studying for a subject until I can teach it to someone a few years below me. This philosophy has helped me greatly and would be very conducive to tutoring. I view the students I work with as peers; I approach each subject as if I am also taking that class and also want to do well on whichever test is coming up.

...tutoring since I was 16 years old (I'm currently 24 years old). I began tutoring while in high school, helping kids in all subjects. After high school I had several different jobs and internships, but would tutor in my spare time at tutoring centers around Brooklyn. My method of teaching goes beyond just understanding the topic at hand. I like to focus on teaching the fundamental concept. This is important (especially in math), because if...

...and knowledge. Progressing through courses of mathematics teaches much beyond what is on the page. It teaches problem-solving, critical and creative thinking. I try not only to teach the mechanics of math, but instill an appreciation for the skills the process can develop. And while math is my favorite subject to tutor, I have had training in and am qualified for all sections of SAT and ACT test prep, and enjoy working with students to...

...in computer science. I also conduct glaucoma research in a clinical research lab. My tutoring approach is very methodical; I identify and isolate issues, while imparting fundamental knowledge and problem solving tips. The key to mastering any subject-I believe- is the ability to identify and understand grey areas and edge-cases in the material. I help my students identify these critical questions and answer them to the best of my abilities. I will admit, however, when...
