To cope with the postponement of my theatre graduate program (and with an eye on my future...

..."aha!" moment makes my day! I know what it's like to be in your shoes. During my first semester at Stuy, I had a really hard time with physics.

Having a patient and understanding tutor can make all the difference now that I'm...

In my academic and professional career, I've found that success is when the right mindset meets hard work and preparation.The beauty of this philosophy is that it does not discriminate against any student;...

...Most of the subjects that I enjoy - history, government, political science, philosophy, etc. - are subjects that inherently deal with concepts and creations made by mankind, and thus they reflect man's imperfect nature. The ability to analyze these concepts and creations with a mind for the why, the how, and the strengths and the weaknesses is invaluable. Analytical and critical thinking is something I will push for in all subjects that I tutor, including...

...teaching Algebra, Geometry, ISEE, SAT, SSAT and ACT Prep for almost 20 years. My experience ranges from teaching in person classes of up to 30 students, to one-on-one individualized programs.
