...like to understand the world, and especially the people in it. I would also like to spread that knowledge, subsequently inspiring people to seek their own truths. Tutoring is a beautiful composition of art and science. One must understand both the material and the student. Not just simple comprehension, but in what manner the comprehension is reached. I enjoy breaking down problems into logical sub-units. First, the underlying equations (or axioms, or vocabulary, or processes)...

...passionate about my craft of working professionally in theatre and film. In working with students, I'm all about working hard on the goals we set together, while having a good time.

Academics should be fun and engaging, not intimidating, and together we'll make it that way.... I believe in...

...in Boston, as well as experience in private, non-essential education (teaching with Education First in Quito, Ecuador). While I very much enjoy classroom teaching, the one-to-one or small-group teaching I did with Education First is something that I found to be most rewarding. Really being able to form close relationships with a small number of students and helping them grow was amazing. I aim to build these types of relationships and connections with students on...

I graduated from Oberlin College in 2008 with a double degree in math and politics, and then I moved to China.

I love teaching.

...master's degree I moved to Finland to do a Ph.D. in mathematics. I was always fascinated with Scandinavia and Nordic culture, so I decided to go there to study.

Finland is a wonderful country, and I will always cherish my time...

Currently, I am teaching a section of World Literature: The Evolving Canon at CUNY (Brooklyn). I would be...

My academic strengths are science, social sciences, music, and SAT preparation. I loved my time in primary and secondary school and hope to instill my excitement for learning into my tutees. While sometimes tests (both standardized and otherwise) can be tricky and decrease students' faith in themselves, I am certain that, with a...

...thinkers. Very recently graduated from Stanford University, I majored in Human Biology with a concentration in Bioinformatics and Stem Cell Science. Technical though my background may be, I am currently gigging as a singer/songwriter/composer in NYC and tackle even the most hard-science of problems with a top-down, big-picture, holistic approach. If you have a propensity to look at problems in a cross- or inter-disciplinary manner (or want to learn how to do so), I'm the...

I enjoy challenging myself to explain difficult concepts as simple as possible to help students succeed. My favorite subjects are math and science and my hobbies include chess, running, and swimming.

...in Civil Engineering. I believe the most important thing when tutoring students is demonstrating that they can conquer the subject material at hand. As a tutor I believe it is my job to not only help the student with the specific coursework they requested but also address underlying issues with study habits or test taking strategies if applicable and desired. Every student deserves tutoring sessions that are personalized to account for the student's strengths and...

...have always enjoyed helping people learn how to do difficult problems in ways that make sense to them - not the way the book describes it. Almost everything that we learn is pretty easy when you boil it down, the real problem is that not everyone learns the way that the book or the teacher teaches it. So the first step is always to figure out how YOU learn, and we'll get started from there!

...fun learning environment that kids would not dread going to, and even look forward to. While the majority of my tutoring was at my temple, I can tutor a wide variety of subjects. At my high school, I was part of a student-run organization in which I would occasionally conduct free SAT classes to students (where my primary focus was on the math section). In my spare time, when I am not rooting for the...
