Award-Winning Tutors from Hofstra University

I believe that all children can learn. All it takes is the right teaching style to reach even the most struggling learner. Patience is the key to teaching. I love helping my students reach academic success and taking ownership of their learning. I have been in the education field for over 10 years. My emphasis has been on special needs students but I have taught general education students as well. I run the Academic Intervention Services program for both ELA and Math in my school. I have worked with students as young as preschool-age all the way up to eighth grade. Currently, I am a sixth grade teacher at a charter school. My favorite subjects to teach are ELA and Writing. Poetry is my favorite form of writing. I can't wait to meet you in the classroom!

I believe in relaxed study, making jokes, focusing deeply, and understanding the emotional side of test taking are all essential parts of tutoring in English.

I believe that building confidence, especially a rigorous subject as chemistry, is the best way to master any topic in any subject. I have about a year and a half in helping students learn and understand chemistry. I have dreams to be a teacher in this subject in the future. :)

I graduated from Hofstra University with a BA in theater and a concentration in English. After graduation I lived in Manhattan for several years and began writing professionally. I've called Dallas home for quite a while, and have taught and tutored professionally for most of the time.I love to work with students to improve their reading and writing abilities and to introduce them to compelling works of literature and theater pieces. It is very satisfying to watch my students get excited great works and to feel a personal connection with work that may have been created hundreds of years ago.My favorite moments are when I work one on one with students to help them realize their potential, crack the code of a tough test, or have a breakthrough moment in understanding a tough passage.

I am a graduate of Hofstra University, where I received a B.A. in English with a concentration in Creative Writing & Literature. I also had minor studies in Spanish and Fine Arts. Additionally, I have received a TEFL/TESOL certification from International TEFL Academy. I enjoy travel and was fortunate enough to be given the opportunity to live in Japan for three years while teaching English to children ages 3 to 12 at an after school immersion program. Once I returned home to Massachusetts, I worked at a public elementary school as the 4th grade ESL teacher. Working with kids has always been a lot of fun, and I find it easy to relate to them and see their individual personalities shine. I'm interested in tutoring a variety of English subjects, but I'm most eager to tutor creative writing and essay writing/editing. I feel like my strengths lie in these areas, given my lifelong enthusiasm for writing and literature. Finding the right words to transfer ideas from brain to page can be quite difficult and frustrating, and I'm confident that with my varied experiences editing an array of writing styles, I will be able to assists students in expressing their ideas accurately. In my spare time, I like drawing, reading, writing, and obsessing over my dog.

I have several years of experience working with young children and adult learners with special needs in Westchester County New York as an assistant teacher. I received a Bachelor of Arts in African Studies with a minor in history from Hofstra University. I received a Masters of Business Administration with a focus in Operations Management from Colorado Technical University. Since graduation, I have worked with the DC Teaching Fellows program as a lead teacher, supporting students with learning disabilities within the DC public school system. My approach to teaching and tutoring students is one that is done with inquiry, understanding and adaptation. I like to assess my students to see what they know, what they want to know and where they need assistance. Then create a plan to ensure that I can best fit their academic needs.

Writer and PhD student of literature. Literary analysis and writing are my passions.

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.

I am an enthusiastic, patient and reflective middle/high school practitioner who believes that all students can reach their greatest potentials. I create a learning atmosphere that is accepting, structured and challenging to meet high expectations and the needs of each student. I studied English and Secondary Education at St. Joseph's College in Brooklyn, where I achieved a degree in English/Secondary Education. There I also started an English Literature Club and helped create the school's first ever literary magazine, serving as an assistant editor. Since then, I have attained a Master's Degree in the Teaching of Writing and Reading, and am a certified English and Reading teacher. I have presented at local and national conferences about my approaches to teaching writing in a high school setting. Additionally, I have taken numerous seminars on AP English Language and Composition and introduced the course for the first time in the school district that I work in, writing the syllabus for the course and teaching it with great success for over five years. I also have been tutoring privately for over ten years, working with students from fifth grade through college. I have helped students find great success on the the SAT, ACT, English Regents Exam, AP English Language and Composition Exam, and with writing, reading, and speaking in general. I also have helped many, many students with their college essays, seeing great results that helped students to share their sometimes very personal stories, while also impressing the institutions to which they sought admission. Overall, this career has never felt like a job for me. I love working with people and always have. I love helping people see the greatness that lies within them, and helping them to see that they absolutely can achieve the goals that they set for themselves. Nothing brings me greater joy than seeing a student, regardless of age, feel great about his or her achievements. I have always played a teaching role, helping co-workers learn computer skills in my teens and early twenties, teaching people of all ages to snowboard, which is a hobby and a side job that still keep up, and teaching English to students for the past ten years. It is a wonderful subject to teach that helps people learn to communicate in a way that brings them satisfaction and helps them to garner what they want in life. Studying English also helps people learn so much about other people, as well, gaining the ability to empathize, and gaining the lifelong skill of being able to read and learn whatever he or she wants through that skill.

"A good teacher can inspire hope, ignite the imagination, and instill a LOVE of learning!" -Brad HenryI have been teaching for 9 years at the elementary level. Every year of my teaching career has been rewarding to see students leave the classroom ready to tackle the next grade with confidence. I graduated from Mount Saint Mary College with a B.S. in Education and completed my masters degree in Special Education from Hofstra University. I relate well to children of all ages and I am looking forward to helping children become strong, independent thinkers! I have experience tutoring in all subject areas as well as test preparation.

I am a licensed CPA in New York and an income tax professional at a large corporation. Tutoring has become a passion of mine since I started a few years ago. I look forward to helping you learn and grow.

I love learning and teaching. I have a strong desire to share my love of learning with young people, and I have done so frequently over the years.I am a former New York City public school classroom teacher, and I have worked as an instructor for several summers at the Hofstra University Summer Camps teaching computer applications. In addition, I have been a supplemental education provider, an SAT proctor and prep class teacher, and currently teach chess to first- through fifth-graders.I enjoy words, word games, reading, mathematics, discovering new things, staying in shape, and sharing what I have learned with others. I am a fan of classic television sit-coms, music from various genres, and my often-hapless yet always-loved New York Mets. I enjoy a good joke or pun and am frequently ready with one for whomever is willing to listen.In short, I love teaching and having fun, and I know your student and I will enjoy working together. I look forward to that opportunity!

Hello, my name is Michael. I am currently a medical student at Virginia Commonwealth University. This is my last year and I will be graduating in a couple of months. I have a lot of free time now, so I decided to start tutoring again. I feel comfortable teaching all ages, but I have the most experience with college level courses.

I am a sophomore at Hofstra University, majoring in Biology with a minor in Neuroscience as part of the competitive BS/MD program that guarantees admission to the Zucker School of Medicine. I've worked with students from middle school, beginning to explore scientific thinking, to high schoolers aiming for top scores on the SAT. My teaching experience includes mentoring high school peers in biology and math, volunteering abroad to design bilingual lesson plans, and leading interactive group sessions on science and math. I've taught students from many backgrounds and skill levels, and I take pride in adapting to each learner's goals and pace. Having recently been through the college prep process and standardized testing, I understand how to pinpoint difficult topics and curate individualized lessons. I tutor SAT Math, English composition, grammar, and biology at all levels. Outside of academia, I'm passionate about writing, health science, and engaging in biomedical research projects.

I am a current undergraduate honors student at Hofstra University. I am working towards receiving my BA in English Education, with minors in history and creative writing. I am pursuing my degree in English Education in order to become a high school English teacher. I am passionate about literature, and want to share my excitement with students. I tutor in almost all things English, including reading, writing, and test prep. My personal favorite thing to tutor is essay editing, because I love to see students' thoughts on certain subjects, and explore their writing styles.My personal favorite books include 'The Great Gatsby', 'A Tale of Two Cities', and 'The Catcher in the Rye'. I spend most of my free time reading classics I haven't covered yet, or writing what I hope to be the next great American novel!Literature is how people share ideas and stories in fresh ways, and there are always new things to notice in even the oldest readings. And of course, writing is perhaps the most precise and sometimes personal way to communicate. The world needs good writers in all fields. I want to help students become the best readers and writers they can be, so that there are only open doors for them looking ahead. I accomplish this through patience, practice, and a flexible teaching method that allows students to take charge of their education.

Writing Is My Passion Love of language motivates me. Sharing that love is what I do. At 9, I discovered the joy of writing my inner thoughts on paper. I attribute my aha moment to my fifth grade teacher, Mrs. Whitehill, who recognized something in me that I hadn't figured a way to express, yet. She had read My Brother Sam is Dead, by James Lincoln and Christopher Collier aloud, and asked us to write a reaction to the novel. Something in me ignited that day. As a teacher, I honor my inner voice by helping students of all ages find themselves through language. I've done just about any job you could imagine from waitressing to investigating credit card fraud. Mostly, I've written and have been fortunate to earn money from my writing. Throughout 30 years I've written: journalism pieces, essays, business proposals, speeches, public relations materials as well as short stories, poems, lyrics, and fiction. I bring a wealth of real-world experience to the classroom, emphasizing the origin of creation, using many sources of knowledge. Everyone has a story to tell from rapper or spray paint artist to parent or child. Each person has a unique voice to share with the world. I help students write better using their own voice. I value the dynamic student-teacher relationship as a fundamental basis of learning and am a student-focused teacher. My classroom, or (one-on-one session) is conducted with integrity and respect for learning and focused on studying written language. As a tutor, I approach the lesson by simultaneously assessing his/her need and ability. Then step-by-step we work on the project at hand. I'm very efficient with my use of time. I strive to help my students thrive and grow to cultivate a lifelong love of language.

I am currently attending Hofstra University, where I'm majoring in Pre-health Studies with a Concentration in Disability Studies. I have had experience in the past, as I tutored students during high school. During my free time, I enjoy reading and playing tennis.

Certified Math teacher with 12 years teaching experience and over 15 years tutoring.Math has been a passion of mine since I was in elementary school and has always been something that excites me. I love teaching students math concepts in a fun and easy to understand way. Through practice and dedication I guarantee your child will become successful in math as they build a solid foundation of the basics and boost confidence to face harder concepts along the way!

My name is Rachel! I am a college English professor at Suffolk County Community College , and have been tutoring students of all ages in English, math, and history for ten years. I experience joy every time I can help a struggling student understand, or even enjoy a subject. I am very experienced in tailoring lessons to meet an individual's needs, so no matter what your issue is, we can figure out how to solve it together! I look forward to talking to you.

As a passionate tutor with over 5 years of experience, I am currently pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Pre-Physician Assistant. I specialize in subjects such as Algebra, AP Biology, and Statistics, and I am dedicated to fostering a supportive learning environment. My teaching philosophy revolves around connecting with students' individual learning styles and building their confidence in mathematics and science. I believe that every student has the potential to succeed, and I strive to ignite their curiosity and drive through engaging lessons. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy exploring new scientific experiments and exploring new technology/AI models.

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 recently graduated with a Master's degree in Linguistics from Hofstra University and hold a BA in German and Film Studies from Bowling Green State University. I have had extensive tutoring experience with students of all ages. In between my studies, I spent a year working as an au pair in both Guatemala and Germany, where I lived with host families and tutored several young children under the age of ten. I have also mentored undergraduate college students and help international students from China with improving their English. As a linguist, I understand the challenges of mastering one's first and second languages, which is why I specialize in German and English. Reaching educational goals is something I highly value in myself as well as others. I find tutoring to be a fulfilling and rewarding experience for both parties involved, and I take great pride in enriching students who are struggling with their academic pursuits. Most of all, I believe learning should be fun! When I am not tutoring, I spend my time traveling the world, immersing myself in a good book, or playing with my dog.

My experience consists of over ten years teaching composition, literature, and drama courses to middle school, high school, and college students. I am a graduate of Hofstra University and received my Bachelor of Arts in English Literature and a Master of Science in Secondary Education with a concentration in English/ Language Arts. Over the course of my career I have been certified in the states of New York, Connecticut, and Washington. While my knowledge, experience, and passions are vast, my areas of expertise are composition/ essay skills, literature/ reading comprehension, persuasive techniques in argumentation, grammar skills, and vocabulary acquisition. I have been told that I do a great job maintaining standards in spite of deficiencies in student skill level and have proven success in bringing students up to those standards and beyond. A good sense of humor and a creative personality develop a positive rapport and learning environment. I also have an extensive background as an actor and enjoy hiking, bird-watching, traveling, classic rock and roll, and can play a few simple songs on the guitar.Testimony from students:Good at explaining, very enthusiastic, understanding, helpful, well-rounded, concise, specific in explanations, enjoyed having her, would choose her as a professor again, will recommend to others, ...the best English instructor ever!Testimony from supervisors:...a dedicated and energetic professional.Her dynamic personality captivates students attention and motivates students to participate and engage in their learning.I can attest to her thorough preparation and organization, as well as to the student-centered nature of her classroom activities....able to draw from many different sources to ensure the students success...

I received my degree in psychology from Hofstra University in 2018, and I've worked as a tutor since June 2019 with students of all ages. I'm passionate about teaching the SAT and math in general; tutoring math has been one of the most rewarding experiences I've had. I'm looking forward to working with you to achieve your goals!

I am currently in graduate school at Hofstra University studying in Health Administration. I graduated from Hofstra with my Bachelor of Science in Biology and a Minor in Forensic Science in the Honors Program there. I started tutoring through the Learning Centers over 5 years ago which helped me realize that teaching others was something I loved to do. This coupled with my passion for Science and a wide range of topics motivated me to excel. I have experience working with a wide range of students from as young as KG to as old as college aged students, in various fields such as science, mathematics, reading and even test preparation. In my free time I love to read and travel.

I recently graduated from Hofstra University with a double major in Early Childhood/Childhood Education and another degree in Drama. My teaching experience covers a wide variety of ages, topics, and settings. In addition to teaching in an in person and virtual general education setting grades PreK-6, I have also taught social-emotional and character development courses for theater students ages 5 through college. I recently was a head teacher of a summer school program for 4th grade English Language Learners to review ELA and Math content from the previous year. I have done 1-1 virtual and in person reading and writing tutoring throughout the last year combining hand-written work and online resources. While I love working with students of all ages, my passion lies with students at the elementary level. My philosophy of education centers around the idea that learning should be exciting, engaging, and inspiring students to become compassionate and curious citizens of the world. I strive to connect topics with student interest to make lessons more relevant and fun. In my free time I enjoy going on walks while listening to a podcast, playing virtual board games with my friends, and cooking up something fun for dinner while belting out my favorite musical soundtrack.

I am a PhD student in Classics (Ancient Greek and Roman studies) at the University of Washington. I have been tutoring Latin since 2015 and was a 5th and 6th grade Latin teacher for Basis.Ed from 2016-2018. I love working one-on-one with students of all ages to improve Latin skills!

I received my Bachelors Degree from SUNY Binghamton and my Masters Degree in Education from Hofstra University. Several years ago I attended classes at LIU Post in Interior Design. I am certified to teach elementary students (grades N-6) and Social Studies (grades 7-12). I have been teaching for many years and every year brings new challenges. In an effort to meet these challenges, I recently attended Dowling College and gained my Professional Certificate in Students with Disabilities.I truly believe that every student has the ability to learn and that they each learn differently. It is the responsibility of the educator to find the best way to inspire his or her students to learn and then guide them along in the process. I like to work games into my sessions, students can learn just as much when they are having fun!Most of my tutoring experience has been with children who are home bound, from first grade through middle school.When I am not working, I enjoy movies, antiquing, and bargain hunting.

I am currently a student at Hofstra University expecting to graduate in May 2026 with a Bachelors of Business Administration in Marketing. Since being in high school, I have been passionate about helping others in any way I can, including tutoring. My focus for tutoring is English, writing (especially peer editing), and history. I have a great deal experience with IB courses, as well as CAS, Theory of Knowledge and the Extended Essay. IB Literature and Language was actually an all-time favorite course of mine, and I have carried that passion with me to college. Writing is a vital tool for success and being a great writer is a key component in higher education and life. Alongside my passion for English/writing, I love to scuba dive (and see marine life!). I also collect vintage vinyls with many being from Fleetwood Mac, which is my favorite band.

I am a public school teacher (Chemistry and Living Environment) but can tutor most sciences. I truly believe in differentiated learning and once I know the learning style of a student, I tailor my teaching style for optimum time usage. I love to utilize stories from my real life experiences in labs to help students understand the implications of their science education.

I am a graduate of Hofstra University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in English Literature and my Masters of Science in Education in English & Secondary Education. Since graduation, I have been working as a teacher in a classroom setting and as a tutor for 10+ years. I enjoy working with kids of all levels and I am eager to help support each child the best way that I can. I have worked in a variety of educational settings with students of varying academic levels and look forward to very flexible and adaptable ways to reach all learning goals for each learner. In my downtime time, I enjoy reading, fitness, walking, yoga, dance, and meditation.

I am the Legal Director of the Strong Children Wellness Medical Legal Partnership, and a New York licensed attorney and Special Professor of Law at the Maurice A. Deane School of Law at Hofstra University, where I presently teach Bioethics and the Law, Public Health Law, Policy and Ethics, and The ADA: Statutory Interpretation (a course I developed for the law school) in the online LLM/MA program. I also lecture worldwide on disability law and anti-discrimination advocacy, and practice in these areas, immigration law, public benefits, and general and special education law. I am an appointed member of the Adult Ethics Committee in the Division of Medical Ethics at Northwell Health, one of the nation's largest healthcare systems. Additionally, I hold an appointment as a Research Fellow at the Center for Policy Research at the Rockefeller College of Public Affairs and Policy, SUNY Albany, where I research and lecture on general public consciousness of Constitutional rights, and on issues of subordinated identity and the law. In 2014, the President of the New York State Bar Association appointed me to serve on the State Bar Committee on Disability Rights. In that capacity, I am one of the chief advisers to the Bar on such matters. I have also worked with the Transgender Legal Defense & Education Fund in New York, working on legal name-change cases and on anti-discrimination litigation, mostly involving health insurance refusals to cover gender confirmation surgery for transgender clients. A nationally recognized authority on intersections between disability and LGBT law, I have consulted pro bono for the Lambda Legal Defense & Education Fund, advising on test case litigation and leading a strategy seminar on this topic for all of Lambda's offices is committed to civic education for all young people. In that spirit, I was appointed in 2016 to the New York State Bar Committee on Law, Youth and Citizenship and its Mock Trial Committee, where I co-wrote that year's high school mock trial tournament problem, Robin Berkman v. County of Dover. Additionally, I lecture on the Constitution and other civic and historical topics to elementary through high school-aged students. I have a passion for history, government, politics and law, and for helping students achieve their goals.

I received my BS in Biology from Oberlin College and my MS in Biology from Hofstra University. While attending Hofstra, I also worked as an adjunct faculty member for 3 years, teaching lab classes for Anatomy and Physiology and Introduction Biology. Additionally, I worked as a private tutor for SAT prep, high school biology, and anatomy & physiology.Teaching is truly one of my favorite things to do. I enjoy figuring out the learning styles of each of my students and showing them that they are capable of more than they believed. Everyone learns differently, yet most classes are geared toward only one style of learning. Tutoring can be extremely helpful for those students that learn in different ways. Using feedback from the students, I find ways to help them conceptualize rather than just memorize the learning material.

After practicing environmental law for 27 years, I decided to change careers. I chose teaching because that is something that has always interested me, and chose social studies because my BA is in history and history has been a lifelong passion. I have a background in law, government and public policy as well, having been a practicing environmental lawyer and having earned a Master of Public Administration degree. As a Scout leader for 25 years, I was very much involved in teaching at all education levels, all the way up to graduate school. Raising my own four children also involved a great deal of teaching. As a lawyer, I enjoyed most working with younger lawyers and helping them become better researchers and writers, and with high school and undergraduate students considering a law-related career. The common thread in these experiences is working with young people one-on-one or in small groups. For these reasons, I believe tutoring plays to my strengths as a teacher. When I was in the classroom, my assessments always used actual AP questions. My students performed very well on their final exams, which were full-length AP tests using questions from past exams, averaging. In world history, I wrote my own test questions, since test banks accompanying the text involved little more than memorization. I try to inject more rigor into my lessons and assessments. I never go into a professional activity with a client without a great deal of preparation. In my economics and government classes, I prepared detailed study guides both to prepare myself and to assist students. I believe my students' performance in AP classes was directly related to these guides. As a tutor, in my first meeting with a student, I will assess the nature of their concerns with the subject. I will review with them the syllabus and their recent exams and assignments to identify the key problems. Problems might include study habits, difficulty with key concepts, and absorbing the sheer volume of material, among other things. Having identified the problems, I will tailor tutoring sessions to the individual student's needs. For example, lessons may concentrate on practice with difficult concepts Many students are visual or kinetic learners, so the use of graphs in economics is especially useful to get to the solution, and to build on basic concepts, even when answering multiple choice questions. In this regard, my study guides will provide appropriate material for helping students. I view these guides as living documents and constantly evaluate and revise them to meet student needs.. As a tutor of college students, I will draw on my own experience working with summer interns as well as my education and professional experience. Law, public administration, government, and economics, in addition to US and world history are some of the subjects in my professional repertoire. Most important, because I have taught or practiced in a number of subjects before, I have a wealth of material and information that I can use in my tutoring sessions. For subjects I have not yet taught, I look for useful material on line. In general, I do not view tutoring as something that happens only during the hour I spend with a student. I maintain records on each student's needs and progress, and plan ahead for each meeting so as to tailor lessons to individual needs. I prepare session notes following each meeting with a student to help prepare future lessons and to assess my own performance.

If you are looking to truly learn the Spanish language, you have come to the right place. The reason I say this is because I am a non-native Spanish speaker that has gone the extra mile to learn. I wasn't the biggest fan of foreign language in high school; in fact, I took tech classes to satisfy my language credits. It wasn't until I studied abroad, where I learned what a powerful tool knowing multiple languages could be, that I came to enjoy them. During my sophomore year at Hofstra University I studied at the University College of Dublin where I made friends from all over the world; all of them spoke at least two languages. From there I was determined to learn Spanish. During that following summer I moved to Spain and lived with a friend and his family where I was immersed in the language. After I finished my Business degree at Hofstra I was able to attend Molloy College and earn a BS in Spanish language and begin working on a Master's in Education. I now work for Booker Software where I implement software for enterprise level Spanish clients. Each day I am able to use this language I never thought I would need in such an informative way. Through my experiences I know I can help students of every level. I can relate to students who may not have the drive to learn another language because I myself have been there and can understand their feeling. While on the other hand I am a great resource for students who enjoy the language and are looking to learn from someone who uses Spanish in their everyday life. For the last three years I have been tutoring students of all different levels and they have all made great strides in the classroom. I have varied experience working with many business' throughout the world and that gives me great knowledge in regards to international business and local and foreign economics. I hope to be helping your child in the classroom soon.

Hi, my name is Sam. I'm a native speaker of Mandarin Chinese and I'm proficient in English as well. I graduated from Hofstra University in New York with a Master's degree of Language Other Than English (LOTE) & TESOL, and started to teach Mandarin Chinese in Manhattan. I've also had several working experiences in public schools in Long Island regarding teaching Mandarin. I've seen a lot of students being interested and passionate about Chinese language and culture which motivated me pursuing Chinese language education after graduation.Apart from my academic and professional life, I personally like to watch movies and read books in my spare time. I'm recently interested in dystopian fictions and I'm a big fan of Friends, the 1994 show.

I am an attorney and solo practitioner who prepared for the LSAT on my own. I worked full time while attending law school at night, and while I studied for the Bar Exam. I know how to effectively manage time to achieve goals.I say this because the LSAT is not like other tests. The material is irrelevant. What is important is managing your time to optimize your score. I can help you improve your approach to the test so you can achieve the maximum results.

I earned two Masters degrees from Stony Brook University, and I'm a published historian.I work as an adjunct professor at SUNY Farmingdale and Suffolk County Community College, and have also taught at Queensborough Community College, SUNY Old Westbury, Stony Brook University and Briarcliffe College.When I'm not digging through archives about Native Americans (a favorite of mine), I also write fiction of the fantasy, romance, and horror variety.Not a day goes by that I don't eat chocolate.

I was born, raised, and educated in New York City. I have worked as an in-home caregiver and tutor for QSAC- Quality Services for the Autistic Community. I have tutored privately for students of all ages, levels, and backgrounds; throughout high school and onward. I have worked as a volunteer in the Child Life program at Cohen's Children's Hospital apart of Northwell Health, during High School and went on to become an intern there during College. I have done volunteer work in Mumbai, India tutoring underprivileged children in all subjects. I love working with students and teaching/sharing my knowledge. I have a friendly, cool nature, combined with a professional demeanor. I understand the learning needs and sentiments of different individuals. I am aware of identifying what approach works best, and tailor my work as per the individual. I majored in Psychology in college, which has been a great asset in addition to my stellar interpersonal and communication skills. This was further perfected by the time I graduated Medical school. I have had a great success rate with Varsity tutors, drastic grade improvements just after 1-2 sessions! :D

I am an IT professional with a Masters degree in Computer Science. My education allowed me to become adept at mathematics including algebra through Calculus. I also consider myself to be well-rounded, well-read and have knowledge to varying degrees in a variety of subject areas including, of course, Computer Science, English and History.
