As the child of two dedicated educators, a passion for learning and teaching has been instilled in me from a young age. Over the past four years, I've had the privilege of working with children of varying learning abilities, tailoring my approach to meet each student's unique needs. My goal is to create a supportive and engaging environment where every learner can thrive and achieve their potential.

I enjoy helping students feel a sense of achievement that feeling that happens when, after struggling with and working through a challenging question together, the student "gets" it. Their eyes light up, they smile, laugh, put their arms up in a "v" and scream "yes!"... or simply says "yay" in subdued, Monty Python kind-of-way. I have an undergraduate degree in computer graphics and interactive media from Pratt Institute (2003) and a master degree in electronic art from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (2015). My favorite subjects to tutor are highschool math, C#, and python for data science. I find comfort in the structured logic of math and programming. It gives me the illusion that our existance can be understood and measured at times when nothing makese sense and the world feels like it's falling apart.

Hi I'm Tejus!I am an incoming PhD candidate and I graduated cum laude with a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science while also being on the Pre-med track at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. My goal is to help students grasp concepts they might struggle with particularly within the fields of Math and Science. I use lesson plans in which I usually introduce the topic in a unique way to target the specific student. After which I proceed to not only go through step-by-step examples, but also provide plenty of practice problems for the student to improve their abilities on their own.I have roughly 4+ years of tutoring experience. During college I tutored both middle and high school students in the Troy Public School System. Before then, I also tutored students in Geometry and introductory level Biology as a senior in highschool. Along with that, as a part of my volunteer organization, I also tutored several students in lower income areas of the greater Albany region. These sessions ranged from traditional 1-on-1 meetings to classroom style discussions. My focus is primarily on ACT, SAT, and GRE preparation while also mentoring younger students in Biology, Geometry, and Algebra.When meeting a student for the first time, my objective is to gain an understanding of their abilities. Based on the results of their baseline assessment, I like to craft individualized plans to help them improve their weak spots and become better test takers. I like to work on practice problems with students to make sure they are understanding the appropriate thought process for each type of problem. From there I try to reinforce the material by giving them problems to work on at home. Finally periodic assessments will be provided in order to measure the progress that is being made.Feel free to contact me with any additional questions or to schedule a lesson!Thank you!

Hello, my name is Colm and I am currently a graduate student at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. I have been at RPI for 5 years now. I love to ski, play soccer and do a variety of other activities in order to have a good time.I have a fairly laid back approach to tutoring, with first establishing a baseline with each student and then working to improve the student overall, with focusing on the critical points first. I am most interested in tutoring technical subjects (math or sciences) or preparing for exams. I have taken the SAT, GRE, AP exams and a variety of subject tests. However, i would also work with students in whatever subject needs to be covered in order to help them succeed.

Hello! I am a second-year BS/MD student at RPI and Albany Medical College, majoring in Biology. My interest in tutoring began in high school, where I helped classmates in math and chemistry. I also founded a chemistry club for middle school girls to spark early interest in science and prepare them for academic competitions. I am currently a TA for Organic Chemistry at RPI. I tutor AP Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, AP Biology, and SAT Math. Chemistry is my favorite subject to teach, and I was in the top 150 students in the US National Chemistry Olympiad and won the National Science Bowl twice. My tutoring style is flexible and student-focused. I adapt each session to the individual's learning style, combining my own teaching materials with any resources the student prefers. I emphasize building a strong understanding of core concepts first, followed by practice problems and application of test prep strategies to reinforce knowledge and speed.

Be a lifelong learner

As a recent graduate in Chemical Engineering from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and a passionate mathematician, I am looking to share my insight and passion through tutoring students. I strive to add fun to subjects that are usually seen as bland or less than exciting, and create a positive learning atmosphere for each student to grow and prosper in.My tutoring and education experience stems from 7 Winters' worth of skiing and snowboarding instruction, with a specialty in childhood and adolescent education (ages ranging from 4-16). I have been able to refine my teaching techniques through hundreds of lessons, and hold a highly positive track record with clients, students, and fellow instructors. Working as an instructor, I feel the best when I see my students working on their skills after the lesson on the mountain and seeing them, their friends, and their family have fun.I have previously tutored on two separate occasions as well. Recently, I was tutoring a third-grade student in all of her subjects, working on effective studying, review, and homework help. Previously I tutored a first-year college student in Chemistry I, helping her transform from a struggling student to a success story through careful and patient review of the materials and implementing relevant real-world applications into my work.I would be honored to tutor you or your budding student, and have a great day!

I enjoy learning and I've been a tutor for a long time at different types of tutoring venues over the years. I have bachelors degrees in chemical engineering and chemistry and a PhD in chemical engineering. I am a life-long learner. For the purposes of tutoring, my main proficiency is in chemistry, physics, math, Spanish, ACT/SAT prep, and some English. I think that tutoring is not about teaching but about learning. The student needs to be gain interest via examples, questions, and humor in order to become proficient. A combination of written, visual, and visual aids the learning; advancement occurs over several stages, but should end with the student being able to work on problems as independently as possible.

I studied Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and will be pursuing my master's in Aerospace Engineering at Georgia Tech with a focus on spaceflight. At RPI, I tutored for 3 years, primarily in Introduction to Engineering Analysis (statics) and Strength of Materialstwo of the most challenging introductory courses in the curriculum. Many of the students I've worked with have gone on to earn As in these courses. I have a strong background in math, especially calculus, and in physics with a focus on mechanics. I love tutoring because I enjoy helping others work hard to achieve their goals. I've taught in both one-on-one and group settings, which has helped me learn to adapt to different learning styles and refine my communication skills. My teaching style focuses on working through examples with students until they feel comfortable tackling problems independently. I encourage them to ask questions as they go, and when needed, I like to step back and revisit the core concepts to ensure they truly understand the materialnot just how to solve a particular problem. Outside of academics, I enjoy sports, weightlifting, and spending time outdoors.

I am a recent BS. Civil Engineering Graduate from RPI, and working as a Bridge Engineer! Since HS I enjoyed all things math and science (hence Engineering aha) and have a passion for teaching/tutoring other students! Throughout HS and college, being tutored myself helped me a lot and taught me the value of learning and sharing knowledge. I strongly believe that sparking curiosity and being a life-long learner is very important, and the skills and concepts learned in school can have many applications in any/every aspiration possible. I've tutored other students for about 3-4 years and look forward to tutoring you!Apart from tutoring, I enjoy watching sports such as Tennis, Soccer and Formula 1, enjoy working out and staying active, and trying new food! I also particularly love finance, budgeting and personal finance!

I am an engineering student at RPI, I enjoy all levels of maths and sciences. I chose engineering because of my love for these subjects. I hope I can help you!!

My background in mechanical engineering and PhD has given me extensive experience working through complex technical and analytical problems. Throughout my career, I've often helped others understand challenging engineering concepts by breaking them down into clear, manageable steps. My tutoring philosophy focuses on building understanding rather than just getting to the answer. I enjoy helping students develop the problem-solving mindset that engineering requires and guiding them through.
