...studying to become a chemical engineer. I have worked as a private tutor for high school students. The subject that I mainly tutor is math, such as Algebra, Trigonometry, and Calculus. I believe that an effective way of tutoring is to constantly have the student practice and be exposed to the particular subject while aiding them along the way. This way, they can become more familiarized with the particular subject that they are struggling with.

...doesn't have to be hard! Mathematics at its core is about breaking up complex puzzles into smaller pieces and then putting the pieces back together in a more understandable way. Memorizing mathematical formulas don't get students very far. I help students get a deeper understanding of math which helps them grasp new concepts faster. My students have been able to speak math after a couple of tutoring sessions with me! I tutor concepts from all...

In addition, I am also open to tutoring students in AP Economics and AP Computer Science A. My favorite subject to tutor is Algebra 1 because I believe this subject is the foundation for all...

...and SAT prep. I have also worked with students on history, science, and essay writing. My tutoring style is geared towards understanding the abstract components of the material at hand, where focus is put not only on what the material is and how to work with the material, but rather on how it all fits together with previous (or those soon-to-come) concepts and why the material matters. I believe this not only helps the student...

...many activities of leadership and community service. The AVID tutoring program was most significant because, I was able to reach out to middle and high school students who needed help in math. My effectiveness as a tutor comes from my ability to communicate and listen attentively to each individual's needs. Given the fact that everyone has different levels of comprehension, I aim at understanding the specific area of weakness and strength for each individual. I...

...now. I come from a public high school of 240 students in middle-of-nowhere rural Connecticut. Plain and simple: I wouldn't have made it to Harvard without finding a way to enjoy studying for the SATs and other tests. My goal is to share that enthusiasm with my students. The test might be frustrating, and it might seem pointless, but I insist that every hour spent on SAT prep is a priceless investment in your future....

My favorite subjects to tutor are SAT and ACT math. While these are the subjects most students dread, I find that this is where a good tutor can induce the most "Ah ha!" moments because there are so many patterns that...

...Regents. At first, it was hard to make Jared motivated; every time he got a wrong answer, he would become discouraged. As we continued to work together, I realized that if I wanted to fuel his interest in the subject material, I would have to use the idea of positive reinforcement. I went through the old regents exams and chose questions that were relatively easy. His confidence level started boosting up as he started to...

During my enrollment, I participated in graduate level classes at the medical school, participated in on-campus research, and completed my studies after just 3 years.

I believe that with my tutoring, as well as my...

...and a B.S. degree in Electrical Engineering. Currently, I am pursuing a Master's degree in Telecommunications and Optics Engineering at the City College of New York. I started tutoring mathematics shortly after my first semester in college.

However, I feel equally pleased tutoring other math subjects, including, but not limited...
