...Jersey for twenty-one years and I love what I do! I have taught every grade from pre-kindergarten to eighth except for third and sixth grades. I enjoy teaching because there are so many ways to teach a student that were not available when I was a student especially in the elementary grades.

...currently changing careers. I graduated from the University of Pennsylvania in 2009 and have extensive tutoring and editing experience. While a student, I became a certified writing tutor through the Critical Writing Department.

...the problem in a different way makes the material clearer and easier. My basic learning and teaching philosophy has always been that the best way to handle difficult material is to take your head off the page and to try to reframe the question in a different way. Coming to a problem - whether it be an essay, a math question, or a writing exercise - with a different frame of mind can help make...

...at Hunter College. I have had many years of tutoring experience, ranging from elementary school classes to college level courses. I tutor algebra, geometry, calculus, chemistry, physics, reading comprehension, and writing composition. My favorite subjects to teach is physics because many students view it as a hard science, but after tutoring, they feel it to be much more intuitive than they initially believed. I believe that patience is the most important quality during tutoring. I...

...a gift it is to enhance our capacities to express our views and arguments. For more than fifteen years, I have worked with students as a University teacher both in England and in New York, Chicago, Ann Arbor and California. We have developed writing, enhanced critical reading capacity, honed grammar and strengthened subject-based knowledge.

I like to explain the world with math concepts, which is easy and beautiful. Since I studied my math in China, I feel comfortable to transfer these concepts to the US classroom. I consider math and psychology as sciences and I believe the two can be used to understand each other....

...complete sentences. Building raw vocabulary is important, but without the ability to join these words together to express thoughts and feelings, mastery of a language is just not possible.

To foster their desire to express themselves, I integrate topics of interests to the students (e.g. soccer, vacations, food). Teaching languages affords me...

During my undergraduate career, I minored in Spanish as a nod to my Hispanic heritage and worked with the Permanent Mission of the Dominican Republic to the United Nations.

I am very big...
