...and sciences, but I have also become a strong writer through academics and personal achievements. I have offered homework help in various forms to younger students throughout my life.

While there, I volunteered as a lab assistant, travelled quite a bit, and I attended university courses, one of which allowed my to tutor underprivileged youths in the Port Elizabeth...

...in the subject of mathematics. I have learned to think of topics in many ways and it is the fluidity with studying and learning that I hope to perfect. I am a certified teacher, currently teaching pre-algebra and algebra at a gifted & talent school.

...Yeats: "Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire." This is true for a tutor as well! Tutoring should be geared to accentuate and utilize the skills and interests of individual pupils - not just be a lecture with the same content the student sees in class. Individual tutoring and training will engage the student on a deeper level and help to further their knowledge, interest, and motivation.

...I focused extensively on mathematics and science. My high school also nurtured strong discussion and writing skills. Although I was also involved in sports and musicals, I enjoyed participating in academic competitions, in which I could explore my engineering interests, such as Science Olympiad and TEAMS. In high school, I primarily tutored in biology, physics, and mathematics. Tutoring was my way to gain teaching experience and give back to my school. In college, for similar...

...majored in Neuroscience at Pomona College and am in my last year of medical school at New York Medical College. I've worked with high school, middle school, and elementary school students and can teach any Math subject up until Algebra II, Biological sciences, and SAT prep. The most important thing to me about tutoring is making sure that what I do actually works for you--being creative and flexible are essential. Let me know how I...

...specialty in test prep. I tutored a high school freshman in Algebra 2 for a year (helping her get an A), a rising high school senior for the ACT (boosting his initial score by 25%), and groups of high schoolers for SAT prep. I have also worked with younger age groups as a camp counselor and a tutor at an elementary school near my university. I love tutoring because it gives me the chance to...

...students and being able to provide guidance and tips that I believe were necessary from my experience. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I hold a focus on math, especially subjects from middle school to high school-level courses. I believe that every student learns in his or her unique way and that the job of a tutor is to find out the optimal learning method and provide the customized lessons for the student.

My passion for teaching comes from my interests in different subjects. I love finding new ways to explain difficult concepts to students because it allows students to gain confidence in their work. ... I like to cater my teaching for students based on their individual needs, because I believe every student learns differently.

...junior year of high school. I worked at an after school tutoring facility specializing in math and reading. I worked one on one with students and graded their work, which ranged from elementary math to calculus. I believe in being patient with the kids I work with. Many learn at different paces, which is why they may fall behind in school. I try to connect what they are learning to school to something they can...

...old as 16/17. I love teaching all ages in subjects such as reading and math, especially when it comes to the SATs. My philosophy is to never assume.

With patience and understanding, I grow with my students...

...has unique strengths and learning styles. My role isn't just to teach content - it's to discover how each student learns best and build their confidence alongside their knowledge. Many students come to me feeling overwhelmed, but I help them see that math and science aren't mysterious - they're puzzles waiting to be solved. I provide comprehensive tutoring across all levels of high school mathematics - from foundational algebra through advanced calculus and statistics. In...

...and that is one of the things I strive to help the students see. In order to fully grasp the material present in the "Calculus, the Differential Equations, etc.", students first need to understand the "Algebra, and the Trigonometry", and for that, students need to fully understand the concepts taught to them at an earlier age. Math is a subject completed in steps. You can't arrive at the top of the mountain without first overcoming...

...students with math, specifically algebra, geometry, as well as preparing for the ACT, SAT and Praxis. My approach is to will review the required math concepts and help complete practice tests/problems; demonstrating problem-solving (and checking) techniques, and building math confidence/knowledge. I have a good success rate because I listen to the student's needs and adapt myself to their style of learning. I enjoy seeing a student turn from dreading math to enjoying it.

I'm an undergraduate student from National University of Singapore (the best university in Asia), but I'm currently taking a one-year-long exchange to New York University for my business minor. I love helping out students because I'm passionate about teaching! I believe that learning has to be done through understanding and not pure practice or memory work - a common misconception about learning nowadays.

Last year, I worked as an English teacher in Tokyo. There, I cultivated a student-centered teaching style, where I serve as a guide for my students. I absolutely love to teach. I'm from Portland, Oregon, and in my free time, I love to read, write, and watch sports.

...try to share my enthusiasm for learning with all of my students. Teaching is not one-size-fits-all. My goal is to help each student achieve to the best of his or her ability by adapting my teaching style to the needs of each individual student. I believe that students can master (and enjoy!) any subject if they can find the right teacher. I'm available for tutoring in a wide range of subjects, including test preparation.

Besides from learning, I also enjoy music, performing, and languages! I play 3 instruments (violin, guitar and the uke) and have performed in theatrical shows for 5 years. I also have an interest in languages and am minoring in french! I hope we can work together and...
