Award-Winning Tutors serving Valley Stream, NY

...to suit an individual student's needs and interests, keeping in mind that the best I can do for any student is to engage them with the material and help them develop self-motivation. I am, admittedly, challenging and will push you not just to get the right answer, but to understand the material at hand. Looking...

...wish to one day specialize in geriatrics. I have taught chess and English to young children and tutored children from foster care for two years to improve their literacy skills. I plan to work as a Teacher's Assistant for Physics at SUNY Purchase this upcoming Fall, but I am happy to work flexible hours.

...for other studies. And as a former history major, I know the importance of building analytical skills, and how a strong analytical mind can lead to progress and success in a multitude of subjects. I loved being a student and continue to teach myself new things today. Hopefully, I can impart my love of learning...

...Fulbright Fellowship teaching English to 6th to 8th grade students at a school for underserved girls. I struggled a lot as a teacher in this environment. I had to witness the underfunded and crumbling infrastructure of the government school, had to overcome a strong language barrier, had to diminish the apathy that my girls felt...

...I play hockey and piano. Since high school, I have helped fellow students with academics. At school, I was also a tutor through Penn's Tutoring Center. I think what makes me a successful tutor is the ability to not only understand the material but also the perspective of the tutee. This helps me convey necessary...

...experience tutoring students with SAT test preparation. In addition, I have taken over 10 years in fine arts training and am thrilled to offer to teach drawing in fine arts. Although I can teach a range of subjects, I am most excited about teaching all levels of mathematics, writing, SAT test prep, and fine arts;...

...What can I say? I'm a lucky guy! To cope with the postponement of my theatre graduate program (and with an eye on my future financial situation), I decided to take a swing at the LSAT. I studied hard over a two-month period, and I took the LSAT Flex in June 2020.* *Since July, I...

...an author's main argument and styles, they learn more than basic information to repeat in a test: they begin to master the information and use it to approach new material with greater preparedness. I always want the learner's outcome to be a compoundable skill. For students learning to read and write better, I believe it's...

I am a Columbia University graduate who majored in Political Science, Classics and History. I have also spent the last year as an English teacher in Connecticut. I am available to tutor in New York City and the Stamford, CT area or online.

...in a variety of subjects and making them accessible, especially with visual aids and diagrams. I also have an ability to motivate students to think for themselves by asking stimulating questions ("Okay, we know Mt. Everest is closer to the equator than Rome, yet it's still colder than Rome. But what else is different about...

...Actuarial Science. At Fairfield I spent time at a local elementary school, gaining some hands-on experience teaching the children and helping them with their homework. We accomplished what we needed to in a lighthearted but timely fashion which kept them focused and engaged throughout the class. With my background in math, I'll get you to...

...my favorite subject to tutor because while it is more difficult to demonstrate phenomena from other subjects such as organic chemistry, physics is a very prevalent science, so even by rolling my pencil off of a table, I can easily demonstrate physics concepts to my students. For me, hearing "Oh, that makes so much more...

...driest material interesting and personally relatable, and to talk out difficulties when they arise. I hate memorizing, and would much prefer to make everything from Biology to History into exciting (if very small) stories that are not only easy to remember, but actively difficult to forget. I've had tutors that I hated going to, and...

...in the 3-year MD program at NYUGSOM. I currently do private MCAT tutoring, and have tutored biology and chemistry at the collegiate level in the past. I am passionate about STEM, and am a firm believer that anyone can reach their goals in this field, as long as they're willing to put in the work!

...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) must be understood, preferably on an instinctual level, as it is easier to remember...

If you choose me to be your tutor then you will definitely ace your test. I'm a great math tutor because I understand the material thoroughly, am patient, and know how to explain things. I attended Stuyvesant High School and the University of Chicago; I am currently studying Data Science with Johns Hopkins.... If you don't get it then I'm explaining it wrong.

...Science at the University of Pennsylvania. There are many challenges when it comes to learning new things, and I understand how helpful it may be to have someone with more experience guide you. I have had experience tutoring students for the SAT/ACT in the past, as well as leading coding workshops at local libraries.

...tests. I believe in supporting and encouraging my students and making material as accessible as possible, breaking down what may be difficult subject matter into terms and concepts that they already understand. I firmly believe in the potential of every student to grasp material that they may think is out of reach, and aim to...

...is enjoyable for all of my students. I prefer to just serve as a guide so the lessons that students get stick with them more. I do this by asking questions and providing enough scaffolding to have my student create their own "Aha!" moment. When I'm not tutoring, I love everything New York sports and...

...solutions. As a trainer and pre-sales engineer, I co-wrote a tutorial, created class materials, and made many technical presentations about "leading edge" software, and so became skilled at explaining complex concepts. My work in QA reinforced my obsession with quality and gave me a good eye for seeing and diagnosing errors, which applies to student...
