Award-Winning Tutors from CUNY Brooklyn College

Mathematics is a fundamental tool for understanding and exploring the real world.

As a child I developed a love for reading that has lasted throughout my adult life. I enjoy helping students acquire strong literacy skills and instilling in them a similar love of reading. I received my Bachelor's degree from Brooklyn College with a major in Television Production and a minor in English. It was my study in English literature that eventually led me into teaching. I have taught in both preschool and public school. As a teacher it was my responsibility to help students learn and expand their literacy skills such as; letter recognition, phonics, grammar and vocabulary. Since reading and writing are so closely connected I also enjoy helping students to express their ideas and opinions on paper. I have taught both general and special education students; so I am familiar with writing and maintaining IEP goals. I think learning should be interactive and interesting, therefore I try to use music and games whenever appropriate. When I begin working with a student; I assess their current skills so that I can build on what they already know and help them to achieve their academic goals.I believe that all children can learn given the right tools and support.

Hi, my name is Kinza Nasir I have been working for the Department of Education in New York City for five years. I have a Bachelor's in General Education and a Master's of Science in Special Education. As an educator, my goal is to spark curiosity, confidence, and a love for learning by meeting students where they are and helping them grow beyond what they thought possible. My approach is rooted in the belief that every child is unique and the path to learning should be just as individualized.

For some learning can be a difficult process. Not because they lack any type of mental facility, but because the material may not have been presented to them properly or more likely the case, the fundamentals needed to grasp the material are weak. I find that the lack of fundamentals is the key reasons people struggle grasping a subject matter, specifically in math and sciences.I hope to help a student learn the basis for their struggles and introduce them to how to learn more than what to learn. Understanding one's own weakness is key to learning. I hope to help the student be more introspective. Instead of saying "This is too hard", I want them to ask "Why is this too hard, and how can I fix my shortcoming?".

I am a passionate educator with specialties in physics, physical science, the college application process, and college application essay writing. I have a bachelor's degree in Physics from Barnard College, and a Master's Degree in Science Education. I have over eight years of experience in science education ranging from tutoring undergraduate physics students and teaching middle school biology, chemistry, physics and earth science. I also have two years of experience advising students through the college application process, and revising college application essays. I'm excited to meet and work with you!

I have a background both in the business world, where I founded and operated my own retail businesses for many years, and the educational world, where I teach History and Civics. I also have a background in theater, where I continue to work as an actor and director.I love history. To me, history is far more than a random collection of names and dates, but rather a study of human ideas and achievements. Math teaches you to think logically, science to think analytically, language arts to expand your thinking beyond our own time and space, but history teaches you to think for yourself. Today, too many people get their information from internet headlines, or talking heads on television, or from their families or friends, and rarely take the time to really understand the world. With such an information overload, who are we to believe? The only way is to develop a full background, with multiple viewpoints, and then to develop one's own opinions. My approach is to study history from a conceptual framework, rather than chronological, to fully understand how the ideas of other times laid the foundations for our ongoing society today.

I am a certified ESL Instructor. I studied Cross-cultural Communication at Brooklyn College and have experience teaching ESL in both the U.S. and Haiti. I knew that teaching ESL was something that I wanted to do because throughout my childhood I had to be a translator for my mother. I was born and raised in New York City but have firsthand experience with how challenging life can get when you're living in a place where the language, and consequently the culture, is foreign to you. In regards to education, being able to learn new information is challenging enough but then becomes more challenging when you struggle with the language. This is why I want to help! I understand that I am very blessed to be able to communicate articulately and I am so excited to help others communicate that way too!

I am a 20 year old who enjoys critical thinking and analyzing situations. That being said, I enjoy chess and mathematics for the simple reason that I can apply the practices I learned in both of those in real life. Currently, I am a college student at Brooklyn College majoring in Computer Science and minoring in Music Technology. As a Computer Science major, I've come to appreciate languages like XHTML, CSS, Java and Processing and while I know how to code in C++, I tend to stay away from it because Java has spoiled me with the lack of pointers and no need to deleting allocated memory. As for the music technology aspect of myself, I just enjoy producing beats from game music already created.

I am a graduate of both Michigan State University and Brooklyn College. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Women's Studies with a focus on African History. I also have a Master of Science in Math Education. Before I went back to school to become a math teacher, I worked as a bookkeeper for a non-profit, an organizer for a national conference that connects media arts and education, and as an editor for a local newspaper in my hometown of Detroit, Michigan. I have been a classroom teacher for eight years, teaching mainly math (but also science, literacy, and journalism) at both a high school and middle school level. I love working one-on-one with students to help them understand they can do so much more than they think they can. While I tutor multiple subjects, I am most passionate about teaching math. My goal with my students is to guide them through their challenges, facilitating their understanding through questioning, practice, and discovery. I want them to not just understand what they are learning, but to truly own their knowledge and begin to appreciate and LOVE what they are doing. In my spare time, I love to read, swim, dance, sing, and practice yoga.

I received my undergraduate degree in Elementary Education from Morgan State University, a Master's degree as a Reading Specialist from Brooklyn College, and a Master's in Education Administration from Grand Canyon University. I am a 30-year veteran elementary school educator. I have taught K-4th grades in large urban centers. In my roles as a classroom teacher, instructional coach, and assistant principal, I've worked mainly with underserved student bodies from Baltimore, MD, to Brooklyn, NY. As an elementary school teacher, I have taught all subjects, but I have a passion for teaching reading. Reading is the one skill that you have to know how to do in order to learn all the other content areas. Reading is not only necessary for learning. Reading is also something to be enjoyed. I want to share my love of reading with the students that I tutor.

I adapt my teaching style to the student's needs. I am a very patient and empathetic person and work well with students of all ages and backgrounds. My educational background includes a Ph.D. in applied research and evaluation in psychology and I have applied this knowledge to tutor underserved students in a college tutoring center.

From PreK through middle school, I have taught at various levels and have discovered that teaching is about inspiring students to discover their potential. I believe in incorporating beneficial technological tools, the application of critical thinking, training your mind to think logically in a variety of situations as well as understanding that what we learn in is not independent but rather interactive.

I have an undergraduate degree in mathematics (summa cum laude) from CUNY where I earned the prestigious Arthur M. Keller award for academic achievement in mathematics and science. My expertise is in Calculus, Probability, and Statistics. I worked for ten years as public librarian where I had the opportunity to tutor students of all ages and abilities in mathematics of all levels. Presently, I work full-time for a large non-profit organization in a management position where I combine technology and statistical analysis to make purchasing decisions as well as design efficient workflow procedures. I hope to put my experience and skills to good use helping your child achieve their potential while also developing an appreciation of the beauty and power of mathematics.

I have an honors BA with a focus on studio art from Macaulay Honors College at Brooklyn College. After graduating, I took on a role as label manager at an independent record label in Brooklyn, traveled across the world to New Zealand to run a gallery and curate art shows, and eventually made it back to residing in New York City. I currently work in the music industry and am a practicing artist. Throughout my years at school, I tutored my peers and some younger students in English and writing subjects, and continued it on the side while I pursued my other career interests as well.I am passionate about inspiring the students I tutor to take on their own interest in learning, reading, and writing in a way that suits and stimulates them. Each student has unique tastes, interests, and styles of learning, and this is a central concept to my teaching approach. I work with each student to find out their individual strengths and weaknesses, while helping them recognize what tools and resources they can use to help them on their academic journey.I tutor in reading comprehension, writing, essay writing and editing, and SAT reading and writing as well as AP English subjects. I am a strong proponent for encouraging and inspiring students to seek out learning opportunities on their own outside of school, and to find enjoyment in their studies and academic pursuits.

I am a highly experienced tutor who has worked with a wide variety of students of all ages, backgrounds and ethnicities. Over the past 15 years, I have worked with the NO Child Left Behind Program in NYC schools, tutored regents, test Prep, homework and many academic subjects for middle school, high school and college. I am an MBA graduate of Pace University in NYC and have a CPA license as well as post MBA education. Over the past twenty years, I have held senior financial management positions in major NYC based companies and currently serve as Comptroller for a large organization. While comfortable teaching English and Math test prep and Regents prep for a wide range of exams, over the past year, I have worked quite a lot with ISEE, SHSAT, SSAT and Algebra students. From the first diagnostic that I give to my students, I quickly develop a strategy to work with them on to improve their performance, test taking ability and understanding of their weakest areas.I am also a certified personal trainer and believe strongly in the adage "A sound mind in a sound body." Culturally, I appreciate music, art, theater, film, dance, museums, reading, lectures and travel. I am incredibly proud that my twin daughters graduated from Ivy League institutions and are independent young women.

I graduated from CUNY Brooklyn College with a Bachelor of Arts in Economics. Since then, I have earned certificates from NYU in Marketing, Real Estate, and Construction. I Live to Learn! Learning is growing, expanding one's mind to search for more. It can be exhilarating! I realized I had a passion to teach when I was in college. Along with my real estate practice, I always taught courses, or took courses. I vowed to take 4 courses annually. Adult education has the capacity to learn from students from all walks of life. To collaborate and share our experiences , getting to know others, is fun! That is always my goal, to make my knowledge come alive for others. Real Estate has been my passion for many years. I am a business owner who has traveled the country to enrich my practice. Developing homes has been my greatest passion. To see the finished product and turn over the key to the new homeowner is a privilege. I love to impart my skills in Buying and Selling Real Estate, Today's Mortgage Products, and The Steps to employ when buying your first home, to name a few. Through real life examples we can learn the many tricks of the trade. When I begin each lesson my hope is that I make each and every student expand their knowledge in a way that enhances their life.

I'm an experienced tutor available for math, physics and general science at all levels (grammar school to college). I have a BS in Physics from Brooklyn College where I minored in mathematics and received a 3.6 GPA. I first worked as a tutor there for other undergrads in physics and calculus at the behest of the physics department. I quickly came to realize I found tutoring very rewarding and continued to tutor after graduation at the Harlem Children's Zone. There I worked on SAT prep for high school students preparing to apply to colleges. I've also been tutoring math to a grammar school student on an ongoing basis (2 years).I try to listen carefully to a student to determine what gives them difficulty or anxiety. I find it most important to instill confidence in the student through methodical study of the subject matter and verbal encouragement. A lack of confidence at test time can be devastating. I watch a student solve problems and take note of how they deal with being stuck. This is crucial in physics and math because at some point everyone "hits a wall" so to speak. I find the solution to this is having the student work through lots of problems with careful prompting to get them used to thinking on their feet.I'm also a musician who enjoys hiking, camping and spending time with my wife and daughters. While physics is my favorite topic, I really enjoy tutoring in math as well. My subjects include (but are not limited to): algebra, trigonometry, geometry, pre-calculus, calculus, vector calculus, linear algebra, differential equations, general physics, electromagnetism, quantum mechanics, thermodynamics, chemistry, SAT, etc. Willing to travel in NYC area by subway.

Hi, my name is Christopher George, and I am currently a junior at the Macaulay Honors College. I am a Business Administration major on a music business career path. I enjoy listening to music, hip-hop dance, giving advice, and overall bettering myself. I excel in SAT and test-taking skills, as well as business concepts.

There's no limit to what you can learn! Why does math and science feel so complicated? - Since I started tutoring remotely in 2021, I have noticed from my students this is "the" question they want answered. Historically, mathematics evolved out of necessity. They were developed to simplify and to record essential financial and astronomical information. In my view, math still feels complicated today because the culture surrounding it is still evolving - despite unprecedented access to technology and educational content. One practical way to address this disengagement is to make math personal. For me, this means offering alternative interpretations, encouraging discussion, and treating math as a language to be understood. Then, the procedures you learn and memorize in class will make sense. My methods help answer "why do I need to know this"?

Tutoring has always been more than just helping students complete assignments or prepare for exams. To me, it is about creating a supportive environment where students feel encouraged, understood, and confident in their ability to learn. I enjoy working closely with students, helping them overcome challenges, strengthen their skills, and realize their potential both academically and personally.

My passion for math and reading started at a very young age, but I quickly understood these subjects aren't fun for everyone. I started tutoring my peers in elementary school, and went on to organize formal peer tutoring groups in middle and high school, to help bridge gaps between teachers' expectations and my peers' reality.I've used my lifelong passion for math and problem solving to obtain my Master's degree in Computer Science, but I know that without a solid background in math and reading, my advanced degree would have been difficult to achieve.I prefer students to understand, from their unique point of view, why 1+1=2, why x*y=z or why "knock" only has one 'k' sound. Kids have a lot going on in their academic and personal lives, so I take time to talk to my students, take a few steps back from the problem and understand how they're tackling the problem. I've found that this conversation facilitates my understanding of how the student learns, and lends to their deeper understanding of concepts to apply to future, independent problem solving.

I have a Master's Degree in International/ Intercultural Education which has led me to become an expert in conducting research and writing. I also have classroom experience which has been helpful in developing my presentation skills along with my ability to help English language learners. I was an English teacher in Haiti during the Summer of 2012 - one of the best experiences of my life. I have experience helping Middle School, High School and College students with comparative essays and with basic grammar. I love reading non-fiction and biographies; I'm a real fact finder aficionado.Aside from my writing abilities, I have vast experience working as a Spanish interpreter. I worked in a law firm for two years where I was the main source of communication between families, clients and court officials. I have helped many people with Spanish pronunciation and with preparing presentations in Spanish. As for hobbies and interests, I am a runner, a baseball enthusiast and have true passion for international affairs/ education issues and I enjoy live music and performing arts.

Having worked as a teacher for ten years in the New York City public school system, I have many years of specific training that will allow me to adapt to any learning need or style. I have three licenses in English Language Arts (K-12), Information Sciences (K-12), and Literacy (K-12). I have also been designated as the the official English Regents, Common Core, and SAT prep teacher at my high school. I have a warm and open style that makes learning not so painful!

I have a Master degree in English and am licensed in K-12 to teach ESL. My specialty includes helping children develop their vocabulary, grammar, and sentence structure. I have 10 years of experiences working with elementary students and 2 years tutoring English to students of all ages.

I am a public health enthusiast and a medical student. I earned my Bachelor's in Biology and a minor in Anthropology from Brooklyn College. I have a Master's in Public Health with a concentration in Health Behaviors and Policy, from St. George's University in Grenada, West Indies. Grenada is where I developed my love for Public Health. I did grassroots work in Community Health and Needs Assessment and worked with Grenadian authorities in order to improve health behaviors in the Grand Anse Valley community in Grenada.Throughout my academics, I have always had a passion to teach. During my undergrad years I worked with Pre-K children through Americorps' Jumpstart program. I learned how to communicate with children who were between the ages of 3 and 5 years and came to a better understanding of how children learn from their environment. After my graduation, I taught 8th graders who were being home-schooled. I absolutely loved to create a bit of excitement in learning science and math. And, during med school, I tutored my peers and younger colleagues to tackle subjects like Anatomy and Physiology. I wanted to make their path through med school a little bit easier and less stressful.My approach to tutoring is that of understanding subjects, rather than rushing to the answer. I have always believed that the confidence students have in themselves plays a big role in learning, whereas fear and anxiety are a hindrance to learning and memory. This is a key player when it comes to exams as well. My main goal is always to help the student to learn how to maneuver through problems and obstacles even if they haven't come across them before. This always helps them to become confident in themselves and to not let challenges bring them down.

While we humans try to understand Nature, I believe, Math is the language we employ to efficiently decode the study (called science) of the wonders of Nature around us. I found this as the major magnet, to begin with, that attracted me to the subject of Mathematics. In addition, the joy of making our young ones understand the subject and positioning them to take advantage of future possibilities such knowledge offers is a priceless fulfillment for me. With these as my basic reasons for being an educator, it has always given me a tremendous satisfaction each time my explanation makes my students understand a math concept, the light lit up in their heads, and their eyes glow with that radiant confirmation of the knowledge they have newly acquired. I guess that is what all true educators live for judging from my experience within a couple of decades during which I have been involved in teaching mathematics.

I am a graduate of Brooklyn College as well as the College of Staten Island. I have earned my Bachelor's of Arts in Psychology and my Masters in Early Childhood Education. I am currently working as a Pre-K teacher to students with exceptional needs. Although I enjoy tutoring all subjects, I am most passionate about Early Reading and Math. I am a firm believer in creating equal learning opportunities for all and providing support to those in need. In my spare time, I enjoy reading and relaxing.

I'm currently a senior finishing a B.S. in Biology at Brooklyn College. During my time as an undergraduate I've shadowed an array of physicians specializing in various medical fields. During this time I was also fortunate enough to conduct research in a SUNY Downstate neuropathology lab. Along with my passion in the sciences, these experiences allowed me to fortify my pursuit in becoming an MD.During the summer of 2015 I sat for my MCAT examination - an entirely new beast. This was truly a life changing experience, and would certainly recommend several tactics I personally employed in fully grasping the content and critical reasoning required for this exam. In the past one could survive on raw memorization and recall power for an above-par score, but this newly structured exam requires a different approach - a more cohesive and integrated one. I'm also in a binding medical program which allows only one chance to take the MCAT and meet the required benchmark, so this was truly a one-time opportunity, a mentality I would recommend for everyone sitting for this exam.During my time as an undergraduate I taught in the Peer Health Exchange program - a program in which I traveled to various under-privileged high schools in Brooklyn and taught classes about a selected health topic. I also have experience tutoring one-on-one with students, something I personally find extremely gratifying; motivation and drive are major components of a healthy mind to absorb and retain information, and I strive to balance these with the complexity of the material at hand. Anyone can do anything, but sometimes we all need some help in getting there - I hope to help in any way possible.

Breaking your language barriers and improve your performance. To do all of the above it is crucial to learn from a highly qualified skillful language tutor with many years of teaching experience. While tutoring, I will use practical examples with meaning full explanation, which will make learning a foreign language easy and fun.

I am an international educator with over sixteen years of experience teaching and coaching in IB schools across the United States, the UAE, China, and Panama. I hold a Master's in Education, a Master's in Sociology, and certifications in General Education, Special Education, ESL, and the Science of Teaching Reading in New York and Texas. I am also trained and certified in the IB PYP and MYP and have served as an IB Coordinator and Instructional Coach supporting teachers, leaders, and students. I specialize in IB tutoring (PYP/MYP inquiry skills, assessments, literacy, and social sciences), academic coaching, organizational skills, reading and writing support, and preparation for NY and TX teacher certification exams. I also provide structured test-prep support with a focus on strategy, confidence building, and skill mastery. My teaching philosophy centers on clarity, structure, and individualized learning paths. I help students develop strong thinking routines, independence, and the academic habits that lead to long-term success. Whether supporting a struggling reader, guiding an IB student through complex concepts, or coaching an adult learner preparing for certification exams, I create high-quality, targeted sessions that are both supportive and results-driven. Outside of teaching, I enjoy writing, travel, and design of which expand my global perspective and enrich the learning experiences I create. My goal is always to help learners grow with confidence, curiosity, and purpose.

I'm Alex. I've lived in NYC for 7 years and currently live in Downtown Brooklyn. I work in marketing but have a strong background in Speech Language Pathology. I also make ceramics and practice improv, which I believe contribute to my dynamic approach to tutoring.I have a Bachelor of Science from New York University and a Master of Science in Speech Language Pathology from Brooklyn College. Prior to Graduate school I worked as a tutor for children between the ages of 7-12 focused on phonological awareness, reading comprehension, writing skills, and vocabulary. I taught college courses during my time at Brooklyn College in science, public speaking, and an overview of speech language pathology. I love teaching a variety of subject matter in creative ways as I believe true understanding comes when you are truly immersed in a topic. I really enjoy finding activities that encourage individuals to enjoy the tasks that are challenging them by incorporating favorite topics and games.I have experience working with individuals ages 0-99 years old. Through my graduate study I also worked closely with individuals with special needs. I understand that tutoring involves individualizing lesson plans because everyone learns differently. I love finding the methods that work best for my students and seeing the joy that comes from success in the classroom. I'm happy to answer any questions you may have!I love teaching English as a second language. Learning a language is frustrating at times but it can also be a lot of fun. I believe the more applications you have with a language and the more engaged you are the better your understanding will be. There are so many creative ways to approach learning a new language and I love working together with my student to find the ways that make it the most enjoyable and effective. I believe the more applications you have with a language and the more engaged you are the better your understanding will be. There are so many creative ways to approach learning a new language and I love working together with my student to find the ways that make it the most enjoyable and effective.I would love to work with you to find ways that help you meet your goals! I think we can make it enjoyable as well :). I'm happy to answer any questions you may have, please do not hesitate to reach out!

In my opinion, the role of a teacher goes beyond educating the students. The different roles teachers have prepare students for life and the career they choose. I believe my role as a teacher is to be the manager, the planner, observer, rapport builder, observer of signs of trouble, build a warm environment, and be a positive role model.

I am a native Spanish speaker and began learning English as a second language after graduating from college in Mexico City. I completed a full English course from Basic through TOEFL exam training. Then, I started an intensive course of Italian at Mexico Citys Istituto Italiano di Cultura, where I was a scholarship recipient. Gaining fluency in these two languages as an adult helped me to learn highly efficient language training methods that I have used in turn with private students in English, Spanish, and translation work. In New York, I also began studying French and German, including courses at the Alliance Franaise and the Deutsches Haus, at New York University. In 2008, I earned a Master's Degree in Music from Brooklyn College, City University of New York.As a Music major, I find the music learning process extremely useful for languages and I would apply many of the methods musicians use into the improvement and refinement of languages when tutoring.

I want to be the teacher who makes a difference in your child's life. Over my 30 years of teaching and tutoring grades one through eight in reading and math, I have developed strategies, methods, and "tricks" to help students learn and remember the academic skills that they need to be successful. My love to teach + patience + teaching experience = the perfect tutor for your child and you. If your child needs enrichment or remediation, it would be my pleasure to work with him/her and hear those words that always make me smile, "That's it? That's easy!" Just as it is your goal, it is also my goal for your child to make progress and feel more comfortable and confident in school.

I hold a Bachelor of Science in physical education. Very optimistic and patient educator here to help you! My specialty is in elementary school science and health and nutritional sciences.

I am a graduate of both Brooklyn College, CUNY for my Bachelors in Geology and Queens College, CUNY for my Masters in Education. Aside from my more than 30 years of teaching and tutoring experience, I am well-traveled (parts of Asia, Europe, the Americas, and the Caribbean) and multi-lingual. I am passionate about my profession, ever searching for the best ways to help my students learn. I tutor a broad range of subjects, mostly in the areas of mathematics and the sciences. I am most passionate about Earth Sciences and Astronomy, Chemistry and test preparation for the SAT and ACT in Mathematics. In my experience helping struggling students prepare for Standardized Tests, I always am engaging my students in the problem-solving aspects of these examinations, ever honing their strategies to be successful. As a tutor, I firmly believe in engaging with and learning about how my students think and learn so that I can adapt my strategies for maximum success. I am a firm proponent of education, believing it to be absolutely necessary for an improved quality of life, and I try to impart this appreciation to all of my students. In my spare time, I enjoy reading which enriches my life, enjoying time with my family, relaxing on a beach, and learning. I am a life-long learner, and I always encourage my students to learn from their own life experiences.

Hey there! My name is Hamza, and I studying in the BA/MD program, and Macaulay Honors College at Brooklyn College. I hope to go to medical school and become a doctor, in addition to being a business major.I went to high school in Long Island, where I graduated with 13 APs, an advanced regents diploma, and honors societies. I have always loved to challenge myself.I have been private tutoring for quite some time now. I have worked for other companies as well, and can therefore assist in multiple subjects.

Shauna is a math teacher, who has also worked in the writing lab.

I'm a law student and long time tutor who's just made the move to Varsity. I've been tutoring for about eight years now, since I first started working with a friend of a friend's child on his SATs. I graduated from Brooklyn College with a degree in economics, and I'm at Hofstra Law School. I tutor the SATs, ACTs, LSAT, GRE, basically all high school subjects, and a bevy of college ones, including history, psychology, economics, law, and writing. That's not because I'm an expert in everything - it's because the only thing I enjoy more than learning is helping someone else learn. A good tutor doesn't just explain the subject to you - they explain what's cool about it, how it applies to your life, and why you want to learn it. If I have to brush up on my AP Chemistry as an excuse to explain why dimensional analysis is actually the most useful math you'll ever learn, I find it thrilling, not a chore. That's really my whole paradigm, as a tutor. Every subject has a relation to both everyday life, and to the coolest parts of the collective achievements of humanity. Learning not just what Pi is, but what it means, is treading the same ground as the people who built the pyramids. We lose that joy - the enrichment granted by greater understanding - too often in sterile and boring classrooms. My goal is to help students attain mastery by providing the context and tools that let them have "Eureka!" moments. Learning is fun, and tutoring is more than just being a living wikipedia article. It's giving life to the dry and soulless problem set, making fun of the trap answers on the LSAT, and linking history to its greatest stories. I don't need gimmicks and games to make that happen. I just find where a student and I can connect over the material, how they learn, and what they're having trouble with. I won't guarantee anyone a score on a test or promise that everyone can get an A in every subject. But I do promise not to waste anyone's time or money. Every session, my students will learn new facts, new techniques, or new ways to understand some boring idea. That's not because I'm the smartest guy in the room: it's because I simply love seeing people learn.
