Award-Winning SAT Tutors in Essex County, NJ

...I've acquired patience and experience, recognizing that a topic doesn't come as quickly to some as others, and that one explanation doesn't make sense for every student. I've learned to ask probing questions instead of simply giving an answer to a question, because research has shown that an individual who solves a problem themselves is significantly more likely to retain the information and feel a sense of pride and accomplishment leading towards further willingness to...

As a recent high school graduate from The Lawrenceville School, I understand how stressful and difficult school can be, so my hope is to make learning easier for you! I will be attending Hamilton College in the fall with an intended major in biology. I scored a 1520 super score on the SAT. The breakdown was 720 EWR and 800 math.

...I love Reading and Writing as well as teaching people the basic foundations of writing. I have a bachelor's Degree in Political Science, a Master's in Law, and a master's in mental health and wellness. I'm currently pursuing my PhD in Humanistic Psychology at Saybrook University. I was a debate and speech instructor for middle school students for 4 years. I will also become a substitute teacher with the NYC Department of education very soon

...I can tutor in any subject at least up to a high school level. Another area I am proficient in is SAT/ACT test tutoring. My SAT test scores are 770 in English and 800 in Math, and while I never took an official ACT test, my practice score was a 34. Please contact me if you are interested in a tutor with experience in how to get the most out of your test scores, academics,...

...a hobby. I believe in looking at academia creatively and looking at the creative arts with discipline. My philosophy is study early and from all angles, so that when the test comes, there's really no need to worry. From my conservatory actor training, I also hold many centering down techniques that can assist with test anxiety. I've always enjoyed studying, making it memorable with silly mnemonic devices, fun flashcards and color codes! My favorite subjects...

Six years ago, I started tutoring as a part-time job in college, and I immediately fell in love with teaching and creating connections with my students. This past January, I followed my passion and began an exciting journey to tutor full- time. Despite the challenges created by this current time, I am proud of my decision to follow my dreams and help students succeed.

...principles. My approach is hands-on and adaptableI break down complex ideas into clear steps and tailor each session to the student's learning style and goals. As a music tutor, I focus on theory, composition, ear training, and performance skills. Whether you're preparing for an exam, writing your own music, or trying to understand the deeper structure of what you play or hear, I aim to make music both understandable and inspiring. My teaching style is...

...program. I spend four years working in a cognitive development lab, conducting psychology research with children. My Master of Arts research explores decision making cognition, with connections to marketing and communication improvement. I love guiding and teaching students in all disciplines. I have a large background in training and tutoring undergraduate students, working with children ages 3 - 12, and standardized test-taking. Career-wise, I am seeking opportunities in market research and community development.

...as Bertrand Russell did in his famous paper proving why 1 + 1 = 2 from the ground up, was key to mastery. I wasn't fond of rote memorization and applying formulae. Instead, I was interested in the patterns that were involved. Why was there a formula for quadratic, cubic, and quartic equations but not quintic equations? I was curious. I found my Wikipedia. There I read about Galois Theory and how Galois proved there...

...double minoring in Biology and Religious Studies. I tutor a whole slew of subjects all ranging from English and History to Algebra and Biology. Despite tutoring broad range of subjects, I find myself most passionate about History and English! I believe that the most important thing that one can absolutely attain for oneself is one's education. A balanced foundation in life first comes with knowledge of the world, both big and small. I am here to...

...August. I am about to complete a year of service with City Year, an education non-profit that places young adults into under-served schools. As a City Year member, I worked full-time in the classroom with middle-school students who were in approximately the 10th percentile for math (meaning they score lower than 90% of students). One-fourth of those students were able to grow around 15 percentile points by the end of the year!

...have traveled and lived abroad in Spanish-speaking countries. I also have experience tutoring elementary math; I spent an entire summer creating and teaching an original curriculum of basic skills math classes to high school students. I also took the SAT fairly recently and would love to pass my expertise on to any high school student preparing to take the test soon! My teaching style/philosophy is visual and practice-based. I always tailor my sessions to the...

...like the SAT, SAT Subject Tests, and AP Exams. I'm also a Senior Staff Writer for Columbia's student newspaper, the Daily Spectator, so I'm pretty much constantly editing and giving advice to my fellow writers. I love sharing my excitement for learning with students, and I hope to be able to provide advice, preparation and insight to make the college application process a little less of a guessing game while reducing stress as much as...

...to continue pursuing. There's something unique and inherently wonderful about the ability to express thoughts in multiple languages. Often times there is no translatable comparison, and it's through these discoveries that I have been able to truly understand a seemingly foreign culture. I am also an accomplished pianist with a classical background, and very much enjoy teaching piano to students of any level. As an undergraduate teaching assistant for college level Music Theory and Keyboard...

I am currently a biology major at Stony Brook University! I am also pursuing a chemistry and a health and wellness minor! I cannot wait to help you as your tutor! I discovered tutoring while constantly attending the chemistry learning center because I often went for organic chem help. Often we would work together to help solve the questions. I discovered just how much I loved teaching others and want to pursue that more.

...first novel. I think it's great---we'll see if anyone else agrees. I attended the Brunswick School in Greenwich, CT from 2002-2006. I worked hard, and I did very well. I was admitted early to Harvard my senior year, where I enrolled in Fall 2006. Long story short, my father was chronically ill, and I left school to help care for him. He required more care, and for longer, than anticipated, but it was not a...

...and am very familiar with the curriculum of the subjects that I took. I also have experience with SAT tutoring. Having been tutored myself for the SAT, I picked up on the various techniques required to bring up one's score. I was especially proficient in the english writing section. I was on the Varsity tennis team, played drums, and started an e-waste recycling initiative during my time in High School. Since joining NYU, my interests...

My passion is sharing knowledge with others. I'm a Multi-Subject Tutor who enjoys seeing D's become A's and School frustration become satisfaction. My only goal is to deliver students the results they deserve so they can reach higher levels in education and in life

...chemistry and physics. Recently, I also self-studied for the MCAT 2015, scoring in the 95th percentile. As an individual looking to eventually attend medical school, I believe developing a fundamental understanding of the biological / medical science is extremely important, and there is no better way to learn material than being able to teach others. I hope through my tutoring, not only will I be able to share my passion for knowledge, and help others...

...have discovered that my true passion lies in providing creative and personal academic support. I struggled with academics in school because of a system unwilling to support diverse learning needs. I am determined to guide my students towards success by helping them hone in on their unique skill sets. I also spent my entire senior year of college writing my undergraduate thesis. I went through an extensive research and essay editing process to finalize my...
