Award-Winning Physiology Tutors serving Manhattan, NY

...I was a teenager, I worked as a swimming instructor for children ages 3 to 12. This allowed me to foster a specific teaching technique where I patiently worked with my students to dissipate their fears (like the fear of water), and build the trust needed for them to allow me to explain very complicated concepts in a way that they'll understand it. I used this technique later in college while I tutored fellow classmates...

...for a basic health education course and an introductory biology lab on campus; I also served as a tutor for Emory Reads, a campus organization that tutors underserved elementary and middle school students in math and reading. The most rewarding and exciting component of tutoring is exposing students to new fields and instilling the confidence in them to explore subjects areas that they may not have considered to be their strength. Patience is one of...

...for Engineers, General Chemistry 1 &2, and Physical Chemistry. I learned to tailor my efforts towards each individual student and see which method best suited them. I firmly believe that each student has the ability to excel in whatever they wish as long as they believe in themselves, a value I hope to instill in all my students. I am patient, passionate, and excited about meeting new people and learning how they hope to make...

I am a recent graduate of Biomedical Engineering with a minor in Computer Science from Georgia Tech. Teaching is something that I have always enjoyed.

My philosophy for teaching is...

...am here to guide you through that process! Most students typically come to me with science and math help, but I can help with college applications, personal statements, and test preparation.

I enjoy playing football, basketball, and go snowboarding in my free time while maintaing a balanced and healthy lifestyle whenever I...

...as a biologist or chemist and perhaps become a researcher. When I began my undergraduate career at the University of Scranton, I was blessed with many opportunities to learn biology so I decided to major in it. I also found the humanity courses such as philosophy and psychology interesting. I decided to minor in philosophy and decided to take pre-med courses. I plan on to pursue a career in medicine focusing on sports medicine, psychiatry...

...Stony Brook University with a degree in Biochemistry. I tutored all throughout my college career both in groups and as an individual through the Women in Science and Engineering program. My tutoring philosophy is getting to know how my students learn and then tackle any problems using their strengths. I can explain things a hundred different ways and I won't give up until we feel confident, together, that a concept is understood.... Understanding the strengths and...

...While dabbling in a few "teaching" experiences (teaching assistant for a course, Paint Nite instructor) I found that I do best in a 1-on-1 setting which tutoring fits the bill. My teaching style is incredibly laid-back and my end-goal is making sure that one is comfortable with me and also with learning the material. In my free time I like to knit, cook, draw/paint, as well as being an avid Redditor. My dream in life...

...aspect of my life that I find very rewarding. To be able to take someone with an attitude of the topic being too hard to being confident enough to approach any challenge. I love showing how a deeper understanding can translate to being able to adapt to any situation you encounter on the test. This approach served me well as both an undergraduate and graduate teaching assistant. This is more than a career for me,...

...truths. Tutoring is a beautiful composition of art and science. One must understand both the material and the student. Not just simple comprehension, but in what manner the comprehension is reached. I enjoy breaking down problems into logical sub-units. First, the underlying equations (or axioms, or vocabulary, or processes) must be understood, preferably on an instinctual level, as it is easier to remember ideas when they make sense at a core level. Then these ideas...

...a Respiratory Therapist will be very useful when we study the human body. Math and science are both subjects that are made up of patterns to be discovered and I will challenge my students to find them as part of problem solving quests. I feel that when students are able to discover the puzzle underlying subject material, learning becomes more fun. In addition, I greatly enjoy children's literature and have many fond memories of the...
