...exposure to challenging coursework and real-world work experiences has equipped me with critical thinking and problem-solving skills, which I use to support and mentor others. In addition to taking place in a classroom, education, in my opinion, should promote curiosity, teamwork, and personal growth. I'm eager to connect with students who share my desire to learn and make a difference in order to create an inclusive environment where we can succeed together on our academic...

...was in high school. I tutored a 3rd grade boy and 5th grade girl in English and Math (up until Algebra 1) for 4 years! I went to college at UC Berkeley, where I continued tutoring middle school and high school kids in English, Math, Social Studies, and Writing. I taught English and Math at an elementary school and high school in Spain for one year after graduating. I'm highly experienced in working with individuals...

...on SAT Math, Algebra, Calculus, Python, and C++. I love helping students learn and seeing their eyes light up as they grasp new concepts. I enjoy using visual or real life examples to explain new concepts, especially for younger students. I believe doing practice problems is one of the most effective ways to learn as it allows students to figure out exactly which aspects of new concepts they might be struggling with so I can...

...I tutor a broad range of subjects, but I'm most passionate about English, Literature, and History. I've recently (and successfully) tutored myself in test preparation skills, so I am also very prepared to tutor test-prep. In my experience as a tutor, I have a great track record helping students develop their interest in reading anything! I have a deep belief that education is about practice, and that by practicing anything enough, any student can improve.

...love of learning to others. Whether it be music, math, history, literature, or science, I have embraced education whole-heartedly my entire life and have had many wonderful experiences effectively sharing that passion with others and helping younger students find it in themselves for whatever subject(s) they struggle in or desire to pursue in greater depth. I look forward to getting to you know my students and their parents. By working together, I am confident that...

...their Graduate Musical Theatre Writing Program. I have had my work performed Off-Broadway, across NYC and Baltimore. In 2017, I graduated from Johns Hopkins University with a Bachelor's degree in History of Art, as well as minors in Theatre Arts & Studies (JHU) and Vocal Performance (the Peabody Institute). I have also studied Opera at the Florence University of the Arts in Italy and Musical Theater at the Eugene O'Neill Theater Center in Connecticut. I...

...same rate, but with different methods and strategies, it is possible. Students should not be thought of as mindless individuals just waiting to be filled with knowledge by their teachers. Quite the opposite; students should be viewed as individuals who can contribute to the classroom, sharing and gaining knowledge from each other. Students need guidance and not just lectures only. Education is not solely academic; the teacher must also educate his students mentally by teaching...

When we work together, we'll be successful!... We will work out as to WHY you don't know as to WHAT you don't know.... Please provide all the past homework, classwork, and notes to gain a clearer understanding of what to expect in the future. This helps to "break the ice" and establish a working relationship. The more information provided, the easier to diagnose WHY you don't know.... There's an old saying, "You can lead a horse...

...providing homework help. I am currently a freelance writer and comedian in NYC. I have high energy and am very enthusiastic. I have no trouble keeping up with children of many energy levels and exceptional needs. As a tutor, I emphasize lesson plans and interactive work that fits the individual student. I believe that a student should be involved in planning their own method of learning, especially for establishing the retention needed to perform well...

...do. In high school I became enthralled with my ACT exams, embracing the challenge and being reinvigorated with each improvement I could make; over the course of a year, I self-studied from a 21 to a 34 and even had fun doing it! With that score I was able to attend Columbia University where I received two BAs: one in Archaeology and the other in Classics with a focus on Latin. In each step of...

...performing slightly above average on the ACT my first attempt, I found a tutor who helped me reach my full potential and absolutely rock the test. Since then, I have not been intimidated by any exam in University or beyond, including the LSAT. I know I can instill this same confidence in other students by slowly highlighting insight into testing methodologies. By the end of our prep, your student will be able to use the...

...school, where I received acknowledgement for outstanding achievement in the field of urban studies. I would like to specify my desired field in land use so that I can possibly experience politics as an urban planner and advocate for geographically efficient methods of zoning establishments, despite the historical redlining of neighborhoods, the discriminatory lending practices of financial institutions, the displacement caused by gentrification, white flight, the bankruptcy and corruption of primarily black neighborhoods, and the...

...family. I am certified to help people of all ages with their organization demands: can you organize your work day more effectively, how can my child balance all her activities and achieve in school? I tutor a broad range of subjects but I most enjoy math and writing. In both math and writing there's room for discussion. Unlike the classroom approach, in tutoring we get to take the time to discuss "how and why." How...

...Speaking. My favorite subject to tutor is English Literature, particularly Shakespeare. I try and use a philosophy that encourages discussion and conversation in a constructive way. On top of actual paper practice, such as problem sets or essay writing, I feel that it is very important to have a dialogue and discuss where the student is feeling strong and where they are feeling weak. The more we can talk and get to know each other,...

...subjects to tutor are Spanish I since I love working with students who are beginning to learn Spanish, and art history because I enjoy understanding changes in and across civilizations through the lens of art. As a tutor, I am passionate about helping the student achieve their academic goals while also encouraging them to gain strong study skills such as perseverance.
