I am currently doing cancer research at the Mount Sinai Medical Center. As a student I was never been able to decide on a favorite subject because I felt anything I studied in school could be fun and much easier if approached with the right attitude. Instead of boring memorization, I like to look for patterns and think of creative approaches to study subjects that can otherwise be very frustrating. My goal as a tutor is to help students gain confidence and to think of creative approaches to subj...More

I am fluent in French, after spending a year in Paris during college. Because of this, I am well suited to working with students who are having difficulty with French comprehension and oral skills, at all levels. Teaching the SAT is one of my passions, as it is a mystery to many students but one of the largest gateways to success. Helping students with their English reading and writing, for AP tests and college essays, is a challenging but rewarding task. With the right student-tutor relationshi...More

I am majoring in Dramatic Writing at NYU's Tisch School of the Arts, and minoring in education. While I tutor in a wide range of subjects, I particularly have a passion for reading, writing, essay prep, and theater. I am an enthusiastic and involved teacher, and believe that learning should be fun and interactive. I believe everyone has their own unique way of learning, and I work hard to find what each individual student needs to stay motivated and confident in their studies. I am very skilled ...More

I am a graduate of Deep Springs College: an elite liberal arts program located in Eastern California. Unlike most schools, the admission process to Deep Springs involves writing - and later defending before a panel of staff, faculty and students - seven essays on a variety of subjects including literature, philosophy, and education. Once admitted to Deep Springs, students are typically required to read upwards of 100 pages per day from authors such as Hegel, Joyce, and Thucydides; and to write s...More

I am a 3rd year undergrad at the University at Buffalo, working toward my Mathematics BS with a computer science concentration.

I have taken courses in Algebra, Pre-Calculus, Calculus (I, II, and III), Geometry, Physics, Differential Equations, Linear Algebra, Probability, Statistics, and Mathematical Logic. Through my education, I have amassed an understanding of mathematics from mu...More

I am from Buffalo NY. I have an associates degree and I am currently working on my bachelors degree in Early Childhood and Elementary Education. My goal is to make students successful in school, while making a tutoring session enjoyable and not stressful. I hope I can help make an impact and help you improve in a strategy.

I'm big on pictures and diagrams as educational tools. If you can draw a picture to describe a cellular or bodily process, you will be likely to be able to answer a written question about it.

I am looking forward to working with students again! I was a teacher/tutor for several years before beginning my family 2 years ago. My husband and I recently had twin girls and then a little boy so I have taken a break from the 9-5 scene for a bit. I miss teaching and working with students and I am excited to get back into the world of education. Helping students understand different topics in math (specifically) is my passion and I look forward to working with new students to help them gain co...More

I am a current Dietetics student, Dietitian Education Program intern, and 4+1 student pursuing a Master's of Adult Education. So far at Buffalo state, I have become the treasurer of both the Nutrition Club and the Rotaract Club. I also earned an award this Spring for my 300 community service hours. In my early twenties, I started a business painting cars out of the back of my SUV. I feel it is a great outlet to be creative and work independently but I crave the mental stimulation of academia and...More

I am determined to ensure my students are confident with the information they are learning, feel comfortable in their learning environments and never feel embarrassed for asking questions.
