Award-Winning SAT Tutors in East Orange, NJ

I am currently a fourth year student at McGill University studying Chemical Engineering. I believe in a fun and engaging learning environment that takes the frustration and monotony out of education! I specialize in all Maths, Physics, Chemistry and ACT/SAT Prep. A fun fact about me is that I played competitive tennis my entire life and am also a DJ!

...from Brooklyn, New York. Having always had a love of school and learning, I initially began tutoring as a way to gain community service hours but then realized that it meant more to me. As both a general homework and specialized reading tutor (trained in administering DIBELS and differentiated reading instruction), I have a wide array of experience with different subjects. I can't wait to get involved with Varsity and continue making a difference!

...math!). Otherwise, I'm a dog lover and working poet who lives in Brooklyn. Everybody says they like to cook and I'm no exception -- my friends have come to expect me to bring them brownies or cookies (because if I don't bring them to other people, I'll eat them all myself, which is no good for anybody). I have a pet hedgehog, Dwayne 'The Hog' Johnson, and enjoy hanging out with him in my free...

...the best of their ability and view their progress as a reflection of my own achievements. Aside from developing a curriculum specialized to each one's level of capability, I vary problems so they have a broader knowledge of the subject matter at hand. Most recently during the pandemic, I taught essential workers' kids voluntarily and think learning is one of life's best therapies! I look forward to meeting you and working through all of your...

Everyone is capable of learning. I am here to help move the roadblocks out of you way to help you achieve your goal. I have been tutoring kids and teenagers for over ten years and have treasured all of my time assisting the future leaders of our world.

...Hailey Seltzer and I am a sophomore in Brown University's BS/MD program. I am concentrating in Biology and Spanish and have a lot of experience with tutoring from both high school and college. I have tutored Spanish for 5 years and was in my high school's honors society in which we tutored freshman and sophomores in a variety of subjects. I currently tutor at high schools in Providence and aid students with college applications.

...and polished ways. I feel most proficient when engaging with high school students and the nuanced subject matter they address, but my experience tutoring children at elementary and middle school levels enables me to interact comfortably with students of all ages. I like to adopt a teaching style that deviates from the dynamic of a large classroom setting, and from the often divisive tone of a traditional student-teacher relationship. With my school days still close...

...intelligent and targeted private instruction has helped me all throughout my academic career. I'd love to fulfill that role for a student who's looking for that bit of extra help. I am most passionate about teaching reading and writing skills. I believe that learning should be fun but not without rigor. If I can figure out a hook to engage a student in the material, then I think I've done a good job.

...but until then I want to be able to help in any way that I can, which includes educationally. I tutor in a variety of subjects, but my favorite has to be tutoring Math, from Pre-Algebra to Calculus, because a lot of students seem to dread doing math and I love it when I'm able to explain a difficult concept so that it finally clicks for them and they hate the subject a little less....

...is the key to being a great tutor. I have more than 9 years of math tutoring experience (including classroom experience). Math doesn't have to be hard! Mathematics at its core is about breaking up complex puzzles into smaller pieces and then putting the pieces back together in a more understandable way. Memorizing mathematical formulas don't get students very far. I help students get a deeper understanding of math which helps them grasp new concepts...

...since high school, I realized how much I love teaching and getting to know my students. Teaching has always been a rewarding experience for me and I am grateful that I have the ability to provide not only knowledge, but also support and inspiration as a mentor and a friend; I believe that students and tutors alike can learn and continue to grow in a positive manner through such experience. Although I have tutored a...

...may become more adept to the material. And surely, after a few weeks of tutoring, the processes to solve a particular dilemma, the steps would become second nature to the student. As I am comfortable with anything from Biology to History, and from Arithmetic to Algebra, and even English Reading and Composition (writing), I believe I am a great pick if you are looking for a tutor with a well rounded understanding and approach.

...already know. In short, I became a fan of recycling, finding out what my students knew (always a surprising amount), what worked for them, and then coming up with improved ways of merging those effective strategies (at writing an essay with a thesis statement, for instance) with what were time-tested and worked well for me. As a tutor for standardized tests, I do the same, but also draw upon specific literary-minded questions that I asked...

...brain slices, which integrated neurons across values in stacks while applying my knowledge of light and optics through wavelength manipulation and lens magnification. The main part of this work included image deconvolution and understanding of the mathematical application of wavelength in imaging. Finally, I familiarized myself with 3-dimensional (3D) industrial design using 3D printer software Formlab 2. This work consisted of pre-design, software design and production of small component used in the lab and included...

Hello! I am a writer, designer, and social activist living in Brooklyn, NYC. I love to learn, and I love learning along with you.

...to learn. My previous tutoring experience includes working with students from China who were taking the TOEFL exam. I like to teach by first letting the student try the problem on their own. Then, I like to go through each step of the problem with the student until they understand. Finally, I let the student try a similar problem on their own to test their understanding. I think it is also a good idea to...

...in Real Estate. I graduated from a boarding school in Massachusetts two years ago with distinction in Math, Spanish and the Arts. I choose to tutor because I enjoy helping people understand that a lot of confusion in school stems from teaching methods, not from the students themselves. Even if there's something both of us don't entirely understand, I specialize in figuring things out and look forward to us doing it together.

...I specialize in reading comprehension, language arts, and test prep, in addition to American Sign Language. I love everything from reading and writing to art and music. Being a creative person, although I loved learning, I found it hard to stay engaged with my work when it was taught in a standard way. Therefore, I hope to help my students stay interested in their studies by teaching them in an innovative and interactive manner. I'm...

...in Biology from Montclair State University. I am currently on route to obtaining my graduate degree in Biotechnology. While attending college, I always had my classmates ask me for help on how to do a specific topic because I was good at explaining. My goal is to help each student not only understand the material they're learning but also to enjoy that subject. When a student enjoys a subject they are trying to learn, it...

...people and as students is to learn through our difficulties and hardships. Moving from my personal beliefs, I engage in several community service projects every month and actively try to help my community. Tutoring is something I believe to be helping my community and I have tutored several middle school kids and have engaged in peer tutoring in my high school. While I tutor various subjects, my strengths are in mathematics and reading.
