Award-Winning SAT Math Tutors for Students in Clifton, NJ

...tutoring sessions for younger pre-med students for eight total hours per week. In small study groups I answered questions on biology, general chemistry, organic chemistry, and physics, often employing diagrams and visual aids in my teaching. In addition, since high school, I have always been someone that friends entrust to look over and critique their papers before they submit final drafts. My teaching style features visual learning, mnemonics, and hierarchical organization of material. I find...

...their individual learning style and encourage them to utilize it -- which is who I try to be each day. My goal for my students is for them to see past the challenges and enjoy the process of learning. I have over 2 years' experience tutoring kids in grades K-12 in math, science, English, and test prep, as well as helping fellow college students in biology, math, and chemistry. Examples of my expertise include teaching...

...of which have contributed to my love of words. My passion for the arts extends to working with children and young adults. I have been a choreographer for middle school musicals for several years. I love working with kids, and have experience tutoring middle school students in Spanish, tutoring high school students in the ACT and SAT Verbal sections, guiding students through essay writing, and have worked with children with learning and behavioral disabilities, including...

...classes, worked as a teaching assistant and stage manager in the Theater Department, and volunteered as an arts teacher in under-served local public elementary schools. Dartmouth expanded my passion for learning and taught me the value and impact of teachers who really support their students and value their student-teacher relationships. That's why, in my own work with students, I show them that I am truly invested in them not just as a student, but as...

...tutoring students in math, German, SHSAT, and SAT. I believe that I have good communication and pedagogical skills, and a firm understanding of the subject matter. Having come from Germany at the age of eleven, I know the frustration that can come with feeling overwhelmed by coursework. I performed well on standardized exams like the SHSAT and the SAT and can teach test-taking skills that will ultimately lead students to institutions like Stuyvesant H.S. and...

...a long way since I accepted my first tutoring job - which was also my first ever job - in high school. I am now a state certified EMT and I volunteer with two different organizations, and I am studying Cell Biology and Neuroscience at Rutgers University on a Pre-Med track. I have also held other paid and volunteer positions since then, and I'm currently conducting research at Rutgers. However, in all of my endeavors,...

...style tends not towards lecturing, but rather jointly delving into complex problems with students. Rather than merely arriving the answer, I want my students to understand step by step each fundamental concept that makes up the whole issue. Aside from physics and tutoring, I love the outdoors and adventure. I have scaled ascended 20,000 ft mountains and have ridden and hitchhiked across South America. I love rock climbing and longboarding and everything in between.

...visual thinkers. Very recently graduated from Stanford University, I majored in Human Biology with a concentration in Bioinformatics and Stem Cell Science. Technical though my background may be, I am currently gigging as a singer/songwriter/composer in NYC and tackle even the most hard-science of problems with a top-down, big-picture, holistic approach. If you have a propensity to look at problems in a cross- or inter-disciplinary manner (or want to learn how to do so), I'm...

...have been a teacher my whole life. Even when I was in elementary school, I would teach my brother and cousins addition and multiplication facts. Into high school, I shared my passion for mathematics by presenting and sharing mathematics to other students at the Al Kalfus Long Island Math Fair, and then supervising the Peer Tutoring Program through National Honor Society. In college, although not sure at first of my career path, I decided teaching...

I like Math and Physics, and I believe that I will be able to use my skills to help students learn more about these subjects. I will be patient, and I will try to make each session as interesting and fulfilling as possible. I will be responsive to the student's needs and will use my strengths in Math and Physics to help the student achieve success in these areas, always with thoughtfulness and consideration.

...AP calculus BC exam, and I got an A in multivariable calculus at Cornell University. Differential Equations I've always been fascinated with differential equations, so during my spring semester at Cornell I took the course. I learned a lot of methods for solving differential equations, as well as the reasons why they're important. I ended up with an A+ in the course, so I believe I'm qualified to tutor in differential equations. Elementary Math After...

...Pre-Calculus and AP Calculus BC) at the Episcopal School of Los Angeles and economics as a high school elective. Over the past few years of teaching and tutoring, I found great joy in developing that passion in other students. My favorite subject to tutor is upper level mathematics (Algebra II and beyond). This is when the true beauty of mathematics is explored and mathematics begins to have important applications, including what to what I do...

...a educator and an education entrepreneur all my life. I have always enjoyed helping people learn how to do difficult problems in ways that make sense to them - not the way the book describes it. Almost everything that we learn is pretty easy when you boil it down, the real problem is that not everyone learns the way that the book or the teacher teaches it. So the first step is always to figure...

...English, American and European history, art, or another field. I received my Bachelor's degree in History from Brandeis University, and my Master's degree in Education from Boston University with a specialty in teaching English as a Second Language. As an ESL teacher, I met students from all over the world, including adult immigrants who were starting new lives in the United States. I also worked with students in every grade level of public school, from...

Hello! I am studying political science and statistics, and I will be working in finance after graduation. I also have strengths in Spanish (I studied abroad in Spain), standardized tests, and test taking and organization skills. In my free time I love to run, spend time with friends, and travel. I actually think standardized tests are fun and I would love to help you learn to feel that way too.... I believe that students should be...

...tutoring is an extension of the teaching process, and that as such my job as a tutor is to give my students the skills they need not only to solve the particular problems they bring to me, but also to fully understand the subjects they are studying, and to understand the techniques behind the solutions to their problems. In particular, this means that my tutoring style is very student-involved: I will always begin a problem...

I am a graduate student at Columbia University studying Quantitative Methods in Social Sciences.

...I have taught both SAT and SAT II classes, as well as subject classes including Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, Pre-Calculus, and Calculus. Almost all of my students saw a huge improvement in their scores. I have also worked as a tutor for student athletes in my final year of college where I helped with whatever economic course in which they were struggling. Throughout these years, I believe the most satisfying times are the moments when students...

I am a lifelong learner, and I look forward to helping students with their studies as I work through my own. After graduating Princeton, I worked at a number of tech firms, including Google, but I've recently found myself back in the classroom as I prepare to pursue a PhD in Psychology.

...on not only what I have learned, but also the dedication that others had when teaching me. When I teach, I dissect harder problems into simpler ones and emphasize learning the principles behind the problems. This way, I emphasize the essential concepts instead of encouraging the student to simply memorize facts. I believe that all students should have the same opportunities that I was given, and I am here to help them develop the tools...
