Violet's 1550 SAT and her math degree from Brown mean she can diagnose exactly where a student's algebra or data analysis gaps are costing them points on SAT Math. She teaches the handful of non-obvious techniques — backsolving, strategic plugging-in, unit analysis on word problems — that turn 650-range scores into 750+ scores. Her style leans heavily on shortcuts that make the no-calculator section feel less like a time crunch.

Miranda earned a 1560 SAT composite, which means she tackled the Math section's trickiest territory — passport-to-advanced-math problems involving quadratics, systems, and nonlinear modeling. She teaches students to recognize what each question is actually asking beneath its wording, a skill that turns intimidating multi-step problems into familiar patterns.

I'm not tutoring, I love walking through New York for design inspiration and taking carpentry, metalworking, and illustration classes.

I'm a hardworking, compassionate, and patient individual who has been tutoring since high school and helping my little sister with her homework long before. I'll work with every new student individually to recognize his or her strengths and weaknesses to make sure that material is actually being learned, not just memorized.

I am in the process of selecting a masters program in education that will begin this summer. I have 2 years experience doing 1 on 1 tutoring and it is very effective compared to classroom teaching because there is only one student to focus on. I look forward to working with you and helping you or your child get better. Always remember, even the best of us need help and support from others to be successful.

Scoring 1510 on the SAT, Sabira knows the math section inside out — from the no-calculator questions testing algebraic fluency to the data-analysis problems that reward careful graph reading. She breaks down each question type by identifying what concept the College Board is actually testing, which cuts through the trap answers that cost students easy points.

Computer science at Cornell means Eric spends most of his time turning abstract problems into precise, step-by-step logic — exactly the skill that separates a good SAT Math score from a perfect one, which he earned with his 1600. He's especially sharp on the no-calculator section's polynomial and function questions, where clean algebraic manipulation beats trial-and-error every time. Rated 5.0 by students.

I am excited to be home and help fellow straphangers on their educational paths! My largest wealth of tutoring experience is in foreign languages--particularly French--but I also feel very comfortable editing essays of any kind and working through standardized test concepts. My availability is extremely flexible, and anywhere in New York City works for me. I look forward to working with you.

Philip earned a 1560 SAT composite and brings an unconventional math instinct — his fashion design training required constant spatial reasoning, proportional thinking, and applied geometry. He tackles SAT Math by teaching students to recognize which of the test's recurring problem structures they're looking at before they start calculating, turning even tricky coordinate geometry and systems-of-equations questions into pattern-matching exercises.

I am a PhD student at SUNY Downstate Medical Center studying Molecular & Cellular Biology. I graduated from Columbia University with a Bachelor of Arts in Biochemistry. I love to teach, mostly because of the impact of great teachers throughout my academic career. I think learning can be really fun, if teachers think outside the box and really challenge themselves to find novel ways of conveying concepts to students. Tried and true methods are always great in the classroom, but to work one-on-one with students requires a different approach. It's also critical that learning be something students want, not grudgingly sit through, so that their academic success is tied to their ability to understand and engage the material, not to what score they get on an arbitrary test.

I am patient, relaxed, keenly observant, and articulate - I will find a way to put things so that you will really "get it" from your perspective!

Gabrielle scored a 1550 on the SAT and breaks the Math section down into its core question types — heart of algebra, passport to advanced math, and problem solving with data analysis — so students know exactly what to expect. She teaches efficient strategies for grid-in questions and multi-step word problems that save time without sacrificing accuracy. Rated 4.9 by students.
