Stella

Anatomy Tutor • +37 Subjects

I hold a BS in Anthropology and Biochemistry from Lehman College of the City University of New York. While pursuing my undergraduate degree, I tried to diversify my courses as much as I could within the limits of my program. This allowed me to gain a broader educational experience even though my main field is the Sciences. If I had to pick my favorite subjects, they would be Biology and English because I have always excelled in them with very little effort throughout my educational career.The pursuit of knowledge is one of my passions and I really enjoy applying the things I learn towards helping others become better students. My varied background gives me the ability to explain difficult concepts in many different ways so that my students can more readily grasp them. Repetition is necessary for learning to take place. Learning is fun, no other worldly activity gives the same sense of progression and advancement and this is the notion that I try to bring across to my students.When not learning or tutoring, I write poetry and articles and edit my recently completed first book. I also enjoy a wide variety of music and try to travel as much as I possible. My idea of a really good time is an evening at a jazz club in New Orleans.I look forward to tutoring, mentoring, motivating, and learning with many more students.

Gabriel

College English Tutor • +10 Subjects

After graduating from undergrad in California I came to Austin and in the two years I have been here I have started a professional acting career in films, plays, commercials and other fun arenas. I love teaching and learning in just about any subject but I am most fond of languages, literature History - there's just so much humanity and adventure and passion and awesomeness and...we'll you catch my drift :) I have taught and tutored children as young as 5 up through college aged folk as well. My parents are both professors so I guess I was bitten at an early age with the education bug. Like them, I think that the keys to unlocking the most fruitful learning experiences are: Patience, Passion and Listening - on the both the part of the student and the instructor. Its my pleasure to inspire and stir these qualities in a learning environment. The interdisciplinary nature of acting is something that carries over into my tutoring so if we are studying Spanish there is good chance music will make it into our lessons OR if we are looking at History food, culture or travel may well be part of what we look at, etcetera. When I run into free time I love to play classical guitar, listen to music, watch a play/film/TV program or write songs.

Pinelopi

Accounting Tutor • +39 Subjects

My background is diverse both academically and geographically. I was born and raised in Athens, Greece where I graduated with my Bachelor of Science in Accounting & Finance from Athens University of Economics & Business (2004). My passion for learning and experiencing new cultures led me to New York City where I graduated with a Masters in Business Administration (MBA in Marketing) from Pace University (2008).Currently, I work for ABC Languages, a language school in Manhattan, teaching Greek to children and adults in private and group settings. I also work for Penguin Random as an online Greek teacher and a translator. Last but not least, for the past nine months I am with Kidz Choice Services, Inc as an ABA therapist in bilingual environments (English and Greek) where I successfully completed my Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) Certification. I also observed several hours of clinical trials both in private and school settings. In addition, I participated in several seminars such as, "Seminar on Discrete Trial Training (DTT)" and "Seminar on self-injurious behavior & self-stimulatory behavior", followed by three practical hours respectively. At the same time, I am pursuing a Masters in Early Childhood Education & Special Education at Touro College.My path so far has given me the opportunity to develop a wide variety of skills -classroom experience in diverse environmental and geographical settings, excellent critical and analytical thinking, problem solving and research, and organizational and communications skills- which makes me an ideal tutor.

Kathryn

College English Tutor • +28 Subjects

Education and teaching are passions of mine that I have pursued around the world. I have four years of full time teaching experience ranging from public schools in West Africa to private schools in Tennessee. In addition to my full time teaching background, I have tutored students in a variety of subjects and settings, and I greatly enjoy the one-on-one atmosphere to give each student personalized attention and guidance. I have recently graduated from The Fletcher School at Tufts University with a Master of Arts in Law and Diplomacy degree, and I completed my undergraduate studies at the University of Richmond, Virginia, with a double major in International Studies and History. While I have experience teaching and tutoring all subjects, I become especially excited about English, History, and Writing. I greatly enjoy helping students realize their potential and unlocking their interest in learning, and I believe it's a privilege to be able to assist a student in his or her personal learning journey.

Castoria

College English Tutor • +33 Subjects

I attended the University of North Florida and received a Bachelor Degree in Community Health. I received a Master's Degree in Educational Leadership from Saint Leo University. My favorite subject to tutor is Reading because its comes naturally. I tutor students in most subjects that are Language Arts/Reading and Health based. My interests outside of tutoring include refurbishing old things like wood projects, sewing, crafting and singing. I have been tutoring for the last fifteen years at all levels.I believe in the age old saying that states, "Reading is Fundamental," and I believe that every child has the ability to learn. It is my goal to ensure that students learn strategies to overcome their reading deficits, but more importantly that they love to read.

Travis

AP U.S. Government & Politics Tutor • +31 Subjects

I am most recently a graduate of New York University having received an MA in Applied Quantitative research. Previous to my graduate studies, I received a BA in Theatre and a BA in Sociology from the University of New Mexico. In the Fall of 2015 I will become a PhD candidate at the CUNY Graduate Center in Sociology. Other than tutoring, I also work as an instructor of English Language Arts as part of a weekend, after-school, and Summer program for 1st generation children in New York City. I tutor in a wide variety of subjects from Writing to Math to Social Studies. I am passionate about education because I believe it is the foundation for building a just society, and I enjoy teaching and learning from people of all ages from elementary to college-age. I especially enjoy preparing students for standardized testing, working to make a mandatory and unpleasant experience into something that can bring them pride and enjoyment. When not teaching and studying, my hobbies include working in Theatre doing everything from acting to set building to grant-writing.

Victoria

Advanced Placement Prep Tutor • +15 Subjects

I am a PhD candidate in Sociocultural Anthropology at Columbia University. I graduated Magna Cum Laude from McGill University with a double major in Sociology and World Religions, which I followed with an MA in Religious Studies. I then moved to Columbia where I completed another MA and an MPhil both in Anthropology. I have done extensive ethnographic and archival research in India with support from the Fulbright Foundation, the Wenner-Gren Foundation, and the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada. Throughout my graduate level education I have worked as a Teaching Assistant, lecturing, grading, and designing curriculum for university 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 Sciences. I successfully completed AP American History, AP European History, AP Biology, and AP English Literature, and am certain that I can offer students insight and study skills in each subject. I am a very experienced academic writer and can assist in the development of grammar, mechanics, and powerfully communicative writing. Having succeeded in applying to top schools myself, I can also help students reach for entrance into the very best educational institutions.
