Award-Winning Pre-Calculus Tutors serving Elizabeth, NJ

I am a student at Harvard studying applied math and genetics. I love to learn and teach and will offer enthusiasm and experience towards the subject(s) of interest.

I will dedicate myself to my students and help them grow towards their academic goals. ... I would get acquainted with...

...math homework helper for elementary school students, a swim instructor, and led a bilingual workshop in Panama on environmental conservation, which culminated in the awarding of certificate degrees to 12 adult students. My favorite subjects to tutor are SAT and ACT math. While these are the subjects most students dread, I find that this is where a good tutor can induce the most "Ah ha!" moments because there are so many patterns that can help...

...it! Do you text? Post items to social media like Facebook or Twitter? Can you make your friends laugh at, think about, or in any other way react to what you say in print? Then you're already at least halfway towards becoming someone who can communicate effectively in any setting, including the classroom. Writing, essentially, is speaking, except using your keyboard or a pen instead of your voice. You're probably a lot better at it...

...problem-solving for its own sake, I often find myself in the position of explaining difficult concepts and abstract ideas to people with very different backgrounds and personalities than my own. Generally, people learn best from examples they find relevant, interesting, and concrete. My main hobby outside of class is music. I play viola in both the Harvard-Radcliffe Orchestra and the Harvard Bach Society Orchestra; I also enjoy listening to music of many different genres, especially...

...a Bachelor of Engineering in Electrical Engineering. My love for teaching is something I found when I would tutor my younger brother in Calculus. Ever since I have been taking teaching opportunities where I can find them. At Stevens, the night prior to calculus exams, I would give a review of the materials to over 200 students at a time. Afterword I would stay and help any student that needed assistance one on one. I...

...structures, algorithms, and programming languages like Python and Java. I also specialize in preparing students for the quantitative section of the GRE and other standardized tests. My tutoring style is collaborative and adaptive. I focus on building conceptual clarity while tailoring explanations to each student's learning style. I believe in helping students to think critically and solve problems independently, and not just memorize steps. Outside academics, I'm enthusiastic about building AI tools, reading about tech,...

...focuses on finding what works best for each individual student. I can help students in all math, finance, and economic subjects as well as some computer science topics. My goal is to keep students engaged and motivated by showing them how their subjects can relate to future aspirations. As a tutor, I plan to show students that new subjects and obstacles seem intimidating at first; however, they are not alone, and all experts had to...

...and musical theatre. Prior to university, I coached a local public speaking team and taught as a section instructor for the front ensemble of a local marching band in my hometown in Michigan. Currently, I assist my fellow peers in learning any subject from calculus to music theory. I have a love for both the hard sciences and the arts; I am most passionate about tutoring in math, percussion performance, music theory, and public speaking....

...life. As an educator, my responsibility is to connect with them and show them that it is okay to make mistakes because that is how they will learn and achieve success. Teachers need to always improve their teaching techniques and be open to learn from students because what might be work for one student may not work for the other student. It would be an honor to become part of Varsity Tutors.

...tutor is mathematics. Arithmetic and geometry have such beautiful, intricate relationships which I find fascinating. I think, as a result, my teaching philosophy is more exploratory and less rigid. If a student is engaged, I am more than willing to help them explore the world of mathematics as well. I personally retain information better when I can see the elaborate underpinnings of the world around us, and I think I bring that same philosophy to...

...helped me establish a conceptual foundation of contemporary ideologies and approaches. This ground-up familiarity with modern tutoring methods/resources enables me to cater my approach for each session, especially in the small-group instructional environment. As a counterpoint, my work with Breakthrough gave me the opportunity to scale my mentorship skills to a larger audience, as well as adapt my approaches to a new demographic (public/charter students in an under-performing district). While work with the TWP necessitated...

...business management and minoring in Chinese. I will receive my BBA degree in 2020. Though I am not certified to teach, I am very knowledgeable in Mandarin, writing, and general math subjects such as algebra. Though I can tutor math and writing, I am most passionate about tutoring Mandarin because it was my primary language (I used to live in China). In my spare time, I enjoy watching movies, trying new foods, and playing the...

...change. I've always had a passion for teaching, and currently teach pre-college math with Columbia University's Community Impact program, for non-traditional adult learners. Before coming to New York I apprenticed in the Ohio Public Schools, and worked in outdoor education.

I am hoping to help out as best I can with your needs, and hope to help you...
