Award-Winning Summer Tutors serving Hempstead, NY

...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.

...new challenges. In an effort to meet these challenges, I recently attended Dowling College and gained my Professional Certificate in Students with Disabilities.

...I was the first freshman tutor to be accepted into this selective program. The tutoring program involved a preliminary peer-tutor training course prior to beginning tutoring, in order to certify that I had the appropriate background to provide professional feedback to fellow students on their literary works and projects.

I have over five years experience tutoring both groups and individuals and have taught all ages (my youngest student was 5 years old and my oldest student was 71!). I think it's important that both the student and the tutor feel...

...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.

...tutor because I am warm, engaging, funny and I genuinely love to learn.

...subject areas. I enjoy teaching students in the subjects of Math and Science most, as I personally believe these are the corner stones of our society’s future. I've volunteered with many inner-city schools and enjoyed helping students grow both academically and personally. My tutoring methods resemble the often-heard analogy of "teaching one to fish" rather than "giving them a fish". In addition to covering course material, I also spend a lot of time emphasizing the...

...the "no English" rule. I speak Spanish to my students at all times and expect them to also use exclusively Spanish.
