...college sophomore at the University of Pennsylvania in the Wharton Business School, majoring 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...

...with Autism and other behavioral problems.

I love teaching and helping people gain knowledge and confidence.

I believe my scientific and academic backgrounds combined with my unique life experiences of travel and running my own business give me a unique perspective to educate students. My formal learning is not as a teacher or educator, but I think that helps to give students a different perspective to learning science, technology, engineering and mathematics. I have taught English in Japan and have tutored various Math and Sciences over the years.

...high school students privately and with tutoring centers. I was a teaching assistant in the General Engineering course at NYU and a science teacher at a charter school for students in K-4th grade. I enjoy tutoring math and science (especially chemistry) from the elementary to college level. I am currently an graduate student at Columbia University studying Biomedical Engineering. I obtained my Bachelor in Science from NYU in Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering.

...ignite that spark of passion for learning in my students. My ultimate goal is to teach them to be independent learners and problem solvers, to be critical readers, to ask questions, to know where to look for answers as well as to have the self confidence to tackle novel problems and find their own solutions. Over the course of my teaching career I have dealt with a broad range of challenges that students face when...

...Alice Gong, (in case you couldn't read that), and I'm a current student at Brandeis University. I've always enjoyed helping other people, whether it be through volunteering, donating, or in this case, tutoring! I've tutored a bunch of friends in the past with math or science, as well as a bunch of children in subjects such as clarinet or math. I love spreading knowledge to people around me. On my free time, I love music,...

I am a test account.

...their answers which teaches them that the correct response is often less important than the reasoning used to reach said response. I honestly believe that anyone can learn anything given enough time and patience. I try my best to not only be a teacher but also a role model to my students and to interact with them as people not just clients. Most importantly, I believe that being challenging, but also patient and supportive yields...

...my students have fun and know they can accomplish anything they put their minds to. Through my educational coursework and internships coupled with my experience tutoring 1-on-1 and in small groups, as well as, being an instructional aide to students with disabilities at a self-contained school, I have gained invaluable experience and it has shaped me into the teacher I am today. I look forward to making an impact in your child's education.

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. For students who learn better through visual representations, I get a better student response when I draw out explanations, whereas auditory learners grasp...

...the club soccer team, and an active member of Beta Beta Beta, the biological honor society. I began peer tutoring at school during my sophomore year for Anatomy & Physiology I & II. I soon realized how much I enjoyed helping other people learn, so I began assisting my residents with homework assignments, lab work, and helpful study tactics. I love to tutor nearly all subjects relating to biology, but my favorite subject to tutor...

I have tutored students from ages ranging from 8 to 18 years old. I am a history major and education minor.

My expertise is in teaching note taking skills and test taking strategies that are developed to suit each client's learning style.

...SAT as well as many topics such as biology, chemistry and more. I find that SHSAT and SAT are the most fun to tutor because of how straightforward most of the questions are. As a pretty outgoing person, I would best describe my teaching style as engaging and interactive. I want tutoring sessions not to seem like a lecture, but a back and forth between the student and I. In my free time, I like...

...field. Not only do I feel satisfied when a student shows progression under my methods, but I am also thankful for the opportunity to make an impact on a students grade. My approach to tutoring includes going over concepts first, relating to real world scenarios, teaching procedures and then doing practice problems of different kinds to help the student fully understand the topic at hand. Besides academics, I enjoy reading, dancing, playing video games, the...

...certain concepts in these areas, especially when you want to truly understand them. Tutoring and office hours helped me greatly during these difficulties, and now I am committed to providing the same help to all students in many different subjects. These include elementary and middle school science and mathematics. One great TA I had, at the end of a tutoring session, would have me "teach" her the concept she was helping me with. I find...

I don't only want to teach everyone how to solve problems, but more importantly also make them laugh. Helping someone else shouldn't be a "formal" thing, rather something casual so the whole process goes smoothly.

...they will be learn of their strengths. I will also make sure to be interactive with the parents and teachers if possible, due to the importance of a strong support system for the student. At the end of the day, I am not looking for my student to become a straight A. I am striving for them to improve and see the results in the amount of effort they put towards the subject.
