...knowledge, I've gravitated toward tutoring since my early high school years. I'm now in my last year of college-- I study environmental science and art history at Barnard College of Columbia University in New York City-- and I'm happy that I've been able to continue to tutor a wide range of ages in a wide variety of subjects throughout college. My passion for languages shapes my preferred tutoring realm; I especially enjoy teaching others the...

...to teach, mostly because of the impact of great teachers throughout my academic career. I think learning can be really fun, if teachers think outside the box and really challenge themselves to find novel ways of conveying concepts to students. Tried and true methods are always great in the classroom, but to work one-on-one with students requires a different approach. It's also critical that learning be something students want, not grudgingly sit through, so that...

...that everyone deserves the opportunity to engage with academia in the way that best suits them. After graduating with degrees in English literature and public policy, I worked as a classroom teacher in Louisiana.

I also wrote curriculum based on the Common Core standards in geometry. As a teacher, I was committed to getting...

...of a challenge. The way I teach is pretty straightforward - the only thing I ask of students is to ask questions. Ask as soon as something comes into your mind because chances are if you are not sure of something now, you are definitely not going to be sure of it later. I, and I am certain a lot of other people, have a tendency of just nodding "yes" when being explained something, and...

I am currently studying Economics and East Asian Studies at Columbia University. Outgoing by nature, I have a teaching method that is very interactive. During a tutoring session, my students should expect a dialogue rather than a lecture. I have a background tutoring Math and Mandarin Chinese to students ranging from Elementary School to College.

...I and my peers overcame. Tutoring is a way for me to repay a debt I feel I owe to my own teachers by helping others succeed where my teachers helped me succeed. Education is necessary for personal growth and human flourishing as a whole, and I try to embody this attitude while working with students. In my spare time, I enjoy reading philosophy and novels, writing, meditating, slacklining, and playing the occasional video game.

...where I majored in Political Science and concentrated (minored) in Middle Eastern, South Asian, and African Studies. At Columbia, I graduated with a 3.72 GPA and made the Dean's List six semesters in a row.

...the University of Illinois Urbana Champaign with an M.S. in Data Science. I have a passion for tutoring in an immense amount of subjects /standardized tests/essays, and helping others gain a greater sense of the material they are trying to master. More specifically, I love helping other students work through the intricacies of mathematics and programming problems and I strive to try to make myself smarter and more insightful through the process, as well! I...

...my BA in Film Studies. I've been making films since the 8th grade and currently writing, directing, and editing my own shorts, music videos, and documentaries. Even though I'm out of school for now, I'm eager to help younger students learn and succeed. Even though I'm a humanities gal, I love and miss math. It's so satisfying to determine what 'x' equals instead of arguing endlessly controversial topics; I love doing both. Outside of film...

...seminar at camp with a small co-ed group of young students, and the poems and thoughts some of those children came up with were simultaneously moving, insightful, wacky, and hilarious in a way that the best adult writers could only hope for. The best part of it all was that it was the writers themselves, not me, who insisted we get up on stage and act out their words for the small audience. There is...

...studying for the ISEE exam. My greatest assets as a tutor are my flexibility and approachable nature. It is important to be able to approach a problem from multiple angles until the student has found an approach that is best for him or her. This requires a flexible tutor to adapt to each students individual needs. Asking questions is an integral part of the learning process and my approachable nature allows students to feel comfortable...

...college application process. As an immigrant from South Korea, I received a lot of tutoring and extra classes to get my English skills up to the level of my peers. As such, I am a strong believer in passing on not only what I have learned, but also the dedication that others had when teaching me. When I teach, I dissect harder problems into simpler ones and emphasize learning the principles behind the problems. This...

...I understand the importance of connecting to one's students and developing a strong relationship, which fosters the student's growth and improvement. I always focus on my student's weak areas in order to help him/her strengthen them. I also work with them to understand why they are having trouble.
