Award-Winning PSAT Tutors serving New Brunswick, NJ

...in order to improve their English and bolster their familiarity with American culture and history. I also served as a teaching assistant and worked one-on-one with elementary school students at Camp Invention, a summer camp providing instruction in math and science. In my experience, the greatest strides for teaching a struggling student are made when the process of learning occurs as a product of conversation rather than rigid instruction and rote memorization. Though I tutor...

...and doctoral-level statistics courses at NYU and CUNY. I also worked with professors across disciplines at CUNY for 3 years to integrate quantitative literacy development into their curricula.

I am currently a teaching artist for the Bronx Arts Ensemble.

...with children. In my own experience, having a great tutor had an undeniable impact on my learning, my performance, and my future, and I want to pass on those same opportunities. I tutor children anywhere from elementary school to high school age and also have extensive experience teaching acting and writing. Outside of tutoring, I'm busy in the New York theater scene working regularly on Broadway and Off as well as developing my own work....

A writer and screenwriter in the West Village, Jordan has written for Grantland, The Awl, AOL News, and on a 30 for 30 short film.

...sit back and watch them all become team players, getting into a big group on their own. They were gleaning English words they knew from each other and after twenty minutes were able to give me a summary in English of what this advanced adult article was about. That sums up my teaching/tutoring style. The kids are just like me...If they become really fascinated and challenged by something, I feel like my job is almost...

...I also did volunteer work as an English composition teacher. I started teaching and tutoring eight years ago as an assistant Arabic teacher at a language camp, and I've been working in education and/or academia ever since! I especially love teaching writing, reading skills, and foreign languages: I'm a believer in the power of clear and thoughtful communication. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, music, the Middle East, current events, great coffee, and city...

...I began tutoring friends and local clients, primarily for the SAT and PSAT. I currently tutor for those standardized tests along with math, both algebra and calculus, essay writing, grammar, and Latin. My approach to tutoring is strengthening the basics and then teaching the complex. Students are like buildings; they must have an unbreakable foundation before they can be built up. Also, I find that students learn best through examples, and so I always introduce...

...college team, as well as wedding dances to private couples. I am also a freelance writer and am working on learning a fourth language, Spanish. In my observation, languages and writing skills are poorly taught in many schools, leaving students frustrated and unprepared for further learning. The improvement I see in my students, however, is immensely rewarding. With a little guidance, everyone has the ability not only to boost their test scores, but also to...

...have taught in the New York City public school system, and I have extensive experience in one-on-one tutoring. I tutored numerous students after school to help them improve their English language skills. I treat tutoring as a custom-made session. I find out how you learn and help you reach your goals your way. In other words, I listen, understand and find ways to help you overcome obstacles. I look forward to helping you find your...

...and high school students since before attending law school, and it remains my favorite job. I specialize in SAT Verbal, essay writing, Social Studies, History, and Civics and Government. I am patient, engaging, and thorough. I enjoy helping other people learn, especially if I can also help them enjoy learning. Therefore, my approach to teaching and tutoring has always been first to assess the student's needs as a learner--what is engaging and helpful for them?...

...important it is to express yourself and your ideas clearly. In my experience, a student can't learn if he or she doesn't see the connection between academics and pursuing one's dreams. For example, Algebra may seem useless in daily life, but a solid foundation in math allows me to understand basic principles of business that are essential for working with others. Through being friendly and accessible, I work to make students feel engaged with the...

...should be meaningful and enjoyable and that any academic task is part of a student's personal journey of discovery. My undergraduate education at Columbia University gave me a thorough understanding of British, American, Latino, and African-American literature. My Master of Arts program in Adolescent English Education at Hunter College has enhanced my knowledge of literature while also covering the teaching skills that allow me to help students to master difficult concepts. I am a confident...

I currently tutor at high schools in Providence and aid students with...

...at the eighth and ninth grade levels, for all subject matters in a third grade classroom, and for all elementary ages in a science classroom. I immensely enjoyed these opportunities to work closely with young minds and to impart the knowledge and strategies I had learned as a student. English composition, mechanics, and grammar, as well as literature and social studies, have been some of my favorite areas to tutor students in, while science provided...

...I would say that as a teacher, I like to guide my students and let them draw their own conclusions whenever possible. I want a student to leave a tutoring session feeling like they can rely on their own instincts and abilities when working on their own. My hobbies include swimming, theatre, singing, kayaking, reading, drawing, walking dogs, and watching too much Netflix. I know what it's like to struggle in school, but I also...

I am passionate on helping students to achieve their dreams through education so I will do my best to help them succeed not only in subject matters but in life too.

...My kids taught me as much as I taught them. I believe that learning from your students doesn't make you a good teacher but a great one.

I have a great understanding of Math because I have taken up to Calculus III in college. Also, I am a certified teacher. I know how to...

...level students. As a teaching assistant, I have also tutored countless university students, assisting them in developing their skills as readers, writers, and critical thinkers. Beyond the university, I have tutored young children, ages 7-14, in English through an NGO in India, as well as adults in New York in the Tamil language. I can expertly tutor a broad range of subjects including but not limited to History, English Writing and Literature, and the Social...

...well with younger children (pre-K to middle school). I currently work a babysitting job where I provide routine homework and reading help. My goal as a tutor is to not only complete the current assignment but to help my students develop the tools to take with them into the rest of their studies. Once again, I stand by the philosophy that most problems are doable by anyone--you just need the right tools.

I'm currently a sophomore at Case Western University. Among my friends I'm the go-to guy for help before tests, and I tutored under my high school's National Honor Society for two years. I think learning can be really enjoyable with the right attitude - hopefully I can prove it to you!
