My teaching interests include reading comprehension, social studies, science. I have created some great test taking strategies for students of all ages and abilities.As a Special Education Teacher I understand the many challenges that a student will face when having difficulty with a particular skill or a subject that they are learning for the first time.I really enjoy seeing my students reach their potential both in and out of the classroom environment.

Each and every student is unique. I do not teach all my students the same way. I teach each student based on their needs and his or her learning style. I reward my students for good work, and I encourage them when they are struggling. I make learning fun, challenging and interactive. Majority of my students start to see improvement within the first few weeks. I am patient and passionate about tutoring, and I waste no time in helping my students to become confident and bold. I will do whatever it takes to make sure that my student is confident in the subject area. It is my duty to make sure that my students own their materials. As a tutor, I dedicate my time to molding my students intellectually and personally. My students improve drastically within the first few weeks of me tutoring them. You will not be sorry for hiring me: this is can promise.

I graduated from CUNY City College with a major in Biomedical Engineering and a minor in Mathematics. I have vast research experience in the fields of Biomedical Imaging, Neuroimaging, and Biotechnology. I have worked in places such as Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Lincoln Labs, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, National Institute of Health (NIH) Clinical Center, Columbia University Medical Center, and Nathan Kline Institute of Psychiatric Research conducting research. Through this research, I have published 6 journals article publication and one report. I also plan to start my Ph.D. in Medical Physics at the University of Wisconsin Madison later this year. I am also currently working as an Assistant Research Scientist at New York University (NYU) teaching pre-college prep courses to incoming College students (High school students). The courses I teach in this varsity tutors platform are Biomedical engineering, College Physics, College Math, Engineering, Computer Programing, Programing Languages, Math, Physics, Python, Science, and Technology and Coding. I like to teach courses by trying to find real-world applications of the theory taught in classes. I also ask students if they have any problems they want to go over together to bring them before to the session beforehand.

After graduating in 2011 from the City College of New York, I worked as a consultant for Dr. Dewey who then recruited me from Brookhaven National Lab to the Feinstein institutes for Medical Research. That year, I entered the Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell, and joined the inaugural class as one of three PhD students of the new medical school.My dissertation project interrogated pre-clinical sex differences in the metabolic neural patterns associated with opioid pain management using18-fludeoxyglucose (18FDG) and micro positron emission tomography (MicroPET). I was able to show that distinct metabolic patterns of pain were sex-specific, and confirmed that an animal model could be useful in revealing distinct metabolic indicators of opioid withdrawal and improve the efficacy of therapeutic intervention.As a Research Scientist at the Feinstein Institutes for Medical Research, I oversee operations of the MicroPET imaging facility as part of the Center for Neurosciences. I have recentl studies include studies of the extracellular cold-inducible RNA-binding protein, (CIRP-/-) and wild type (WT) mice, before and after exposure to binge-alcohol levels. By quantifying glucose metabolism with 18FDG and MicroPET, and using brain-mapping analysis of the imaging data, we can determine if CIRP plays a role in alcohol-induced cognitive impairment. I have served as mentor to many undergraduate and some high school students, and very much enjoy sharing my knowledge base with those that enjoy science.

I have ample experience both as an adjunct and math tutor. I am comfortable teaching classes of up to 40 students down to tutoring a single student. My aim is not only to help students understand mathematics mechanically but also conceptually. I look for opportunities to connect a mathematical concept to something we use in our every day life.I have a Bachelor of Science in Applied Mathematics from CUNY city college, an M.A in Statistics from CUNY Hunter college, and an M.S in Data Science from CUNY School of Professional Studies. During the day, I am a full time Data Scientist working in one of the largest companies in the world.

Hi, I'm Tara! I am an undergraduate student at the Sophie Davis School of Biomedical Education where I am studying to become a physician. I love math and am willing to help any student with any problem. I have tutored students (from elementary school all the way to senior year of college) for a copious amount of years. My goal is for the students to grasp a good understanding of the subjects that they seek help for, and to be successful with their future endeavors.Besides from learning, I also enjoy music, performing, and languages! I play 3 instruments (violin, guitar and the uke) and have performed in theatrical shows for 5 years. I also have an interest in languages and am minoring in french!I hope we can work together and learn some math!

I am a hard-working, responsible, and friendly student with a strong passion to pursue a career in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I believe that to be an effective mentor you must have a desire to assist children in the learning process and this is one quality which I feel I definitely possess. I look forward to working with you!

- Applied Mathematics & Economics Double Major- Professional experience spanning financial services- Unmatched tutoring experience for students studying mathematics and economics at all levels

I am currently a creative writing major at The City College of New York (CCNY) and an aspiring poet, novelist, and playwright.I graduated from the College of Southern Nevada (CSN) with an Associate of Arts in Creative Writing with High Honors, and while earning my degree, I was the Vice President of CSN's Creative Writing Club and part of their editorial board for their literary and visual arts journal: Neon Dreams. I am also the winner of Steiner's Emerging Voices Scholarship for poetry and Neon Dreams' Monthly Writing Contest for poetry at CSN and the Goodman Fund Poetry Award at CCNY.Before earning my degree at CSN, I tutored students in English and math for the "No Child Left Behind" act which, in fact, had inspired me to go back to school and receive a formal education. Reading and writing are my passions, and I believe that anyone can find the joys of learning with the right attitude and proper motivation which is why I decided to get back into tutoring students.Apart from academia, I enjoy reading and writing (of course), listening to music, watching Broadway musicals and plays, exploring the city and, occasionally, revisiting old video games from my childhood.

I am a current civil engineering student at City College focusing on environmental engineering. I am a hard working and patient tutor who works with students from elementary to high school. I tutor all english related subjects as well as algebra 1. I have previous experience working at Khan's Tutorial as well as Child Center of NY.

As a bilingual teacher for students with disabilities, I believe that I can make a great impact on their lives by using techniques that can only achieve confidence and create hope in them in order to learn new skills. It is important that students trust and know that educators care about them and can connect with students by learning about their customs and culture. This will allow students to become more comfortable with learning a new language and not give up when mistakes are made.Most of the students that come to my class have multiple disabilities and they do not speak or understand the English language. At times this affects their behavior because they refuse to learn the language either because they are embarrassed for making mistakes or they do not understand the importance of the learning the language for their professional life. As an educator, my responsibility is to connect with them and show them that it is okay to make mistakes because that is how they will learn and achieve success. Teachers need to always improve their teaching techniques and be open to learn from students because what might be work for one student may not work for the other student. It would be an honor to become part of Varsity Tutors.
