Award-Winning PSAT Tutors in Cary, NC

...I enjoy it. Education has opened up so many doors for me, and this is largely because I was fortunate to have some amazing teachers growing up who made learning fun (or at the very least not miserable). My goal is to do the same for each one of the students who I work with, and find ways to make even the most abstract concepts or complex math problems "click" in a student's mind.... Individualization is...

...build sites as well. I enjoy biking and running, as well as spending time in the mountains. My friends would describe me as friendly and goofy, as I never give up the opportunity to reference random Youtube videos in every day conversations, and revel in making others laugh. I love tutoring, and enjoy helping students accomplish their goals. I am now attending Duke University to pursue a Master of Public Policy, a track studying the...

...State University with a degree in Secondary English Education. I am pursuing my MFA at New York University in Musical Theatre Writing. As an educator in the field of secondary English education for the past four years, I have learned that students first need a support system in order to achieve their own greatness. I hope to be at least a small part of that support system as well as a source of guidance for...

...when it can seem confusing and intimidating. I love activating students' natural curiosity and inquiry, and using that to build confidence in and mastery of a wide variety of academic topics. I graduated from Yale University with a double major in Environmental Studies and International Studies, and I love the way science and real-world issues can interact. Part of my interest in the environment comes from my love of being outdoors, and I am an...

I tutor kids of all ages, and specialize in those with ADD/ADHD, Dyslexia, Asperger's and Autism Spectrum Disorder, as well as those with emotional and cognitive disorders. My preferred subjects are test preparation (SAT, ACT, GRE, etc.), Math, Science, and English. ... I think it's very important that I relate to students on a personal level so they truly understand that I want them to do well. Once that bond is made, we can work together...

...unable to meet with their teacher, clarify concepts the student needs more time on, explain concepts in alternative ways, and review the building blocks that the student needs to complete the tasks at hand. We'll work together so that your student gains skills and confidence. I've enjoyed working with preschoolers to middle schoolers, and high school students are a great group to interact with. Everyone has their own energy and personal story they bring to...

I have been tutoring for 5 years, and I enjoy seeing students make progress in their studies. I'm very patient and I make math fun. I know I'm doing my job when a student reaches his or her "aha" moment. I have tutored a variety of subjects, mainly math and science, though I have also tutored students in Reading.... I like to get to know my students. I want to know hobbies and interest. I want...

...concentrating on math, the SAT, and writing. I believe each student is capable of wonderful things, both academically and otherwise, and that education is much broader than simply attending school. Some of the qualities I aim for as a tutor are patience, encouragement, and helping students examine difficulties with respect for their own abilities, which they usually underestimate. In addition to lots of reading and some contemplation, I love to listen to and write music.

...time at the University, I spent 2 years as a Fulbright Fellow overseas in Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan teaching English and working alongside the U.S. Embassies in creating greater cultural exchange and awareness in Central Asia. Based on those experiences and more, I have gained strong communication skills, some teaching methodology (though there is also more to learn!), and a greater understanding of how powerful education can be. I hope to continue learning as I teach...

...elementary mathematics, pre-algebra, algebra I, algebra II, geometry, statistics, and pre-Calculus. My favorite subjects to tutor are algebra I and algebra II. I thoroughly enjoyed these topics while in school and algebra is the foundation of high level mathematics. If I am able to help someone understand algebra or pre-algebra, they will be on the right path to academic success in upper levels of mathematics. My teaching philosophy is that anyone can learn giving the...
