My first experience teaching and tutoring was in May 2005 in Taipei City, Taiwan. It was a formative experience for me because I was teaching and tutoring students whose native language was not English. They truly helped me grow as an instructor because of the cultural and linguistic challenges that they brought to the fore.My tutoring philosophy is simple. Teach a student how to think and study. In the academic sphere, this is akin to the old saying teach a man to fish??? It is important to me to dialogue with the student about his or her goals and apprehensions with a given subject. Communication is crucial because it helps me the tutor and the student set milestones that are achievable with a certain time scope.I love learning and sharing with others the things I learn. There???s no better reward for me as a tutor than to help a student see just how interesting history, languages, literature, poetry, art and politics can be as subjects. It is a great joy reading and learning about these subjects and I have never met a student that does not come to enjoy these subjects as well in due time.

I'm passionate about helping students build confidence in mathematics and to help students see math as something fun, cool, exciting (not anxiety-inducing or fearful). Math is beautiful and elegant, and I hope to help students take that away from my tutoring sessions, little by little. I have helped communicate this message through my diverse teaching and tutoring experiences working with students from Title 1 High Schools and underrepresented backgrounds.

I am a graduate of Cornell University with a BS in Biological Sciences, where I started tutoring students one-on-one in calculus. Since then, I have also served multiple times as a teaching assistant, both at the undergraduate and graduate level. Currently as a MS student at the University of Illinois, I tutor online, mainly for high school and college students in math and science. Understanding beats memorization every time! Understand the "why" and "how" of the topic; don't just memorizing facts. This is especially important for FRQs, word problems, and more advanced topics that require analysis of the material, beyond simple regurgitation of lectures. No question is too small to make sure that the foundational and basic knowledge is solid. I always have fun tutoring. I love the topics I teach, and I'm sure you will too!

I am a student at Cornell University pursuing a degree in Computer Science. My passion for tutoring stems from a desire to empower students with the tools they need to approach challenging material with confidence and curiosity. I know firsthand how powerful it is to have someone break down complex topics into manageable steps, and I aim to provide that same clarity and support for others. I've worked with students in both academic and outreach settings. I have mentored high schoolers in robotics and programming, helped peers grasp fundamental concepts in math and science, and served as a debate coach, where I guided students in building arguments, analyzing policy, and developing strong communication skills. I enjoy building a connection with students and tailoring my explanations to how they learn best, whether that means using visual aids, real-world examples, or interactive problem-solving. I tutor subjects in math, science, and computer programming. My favorite areas to teach are computer science and physics because they allow students to see immediate cause and effect, sparking creativity and deeper understanding. I believe in a tutoring style that is encouraging, collaborative, and grounded in patience. Every student can learn; it is just a matter of finding the right path together. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy building electronics projects, exploring new technologies, and learning how policy and ethics intersect with engineering. Whether it is guiding students through a tough homework set or helping them discover a new academic passion, I am committed to making the learning process both effective and enjoyable.

I'm a recent Cornell graduate who is passion about personalized education. I studied English and Film, with a lot of everything else thrown in!As someone who's been stuck in classes that didn't do anything for me, I value the fact that everyone learns differently, and that variety and context, though integral to an engaged learning experience, are often lacking in traditional classrooms. I have remote teaching experience, so I'm looking forward to tutoring a wide variety of students online!

I majored in Middle Eastern Studies and minored in math during undergrad at Cornell. Since graduating I've worked in a number of fields and countries, although the common theme is teaching English and researching in the Middle East. As an English Teaching Assistant at Weill Medical School in Qatar, I became competent at editing and guiding students in writing. I'm now a first year fellow studying Policy Analysis at the Pardee RAND Graduate School.

I attended Sacred Heart Academy in Hempstead, NY for high school and graduated in 2012. Following high school, I went to Cornell University. I am currently working towards my degree. My academic interests and strengths include math, psychology, sociology, writing, and test prep. I have had several tutors over the course of my academic career and they have helped me immensely, so now I'd like to be able to help others succeed. My interests outside of school include singing, swimming, travel, and taking care of my dog. Please feel free to contact me for any advice or availability.

I am currently a student at Cornell University. At Cornell, I have maintained a 3.88 GPA and made the Dean's List every semester. I attended a small private high school and graduated at the top of my class with a 4.0 GPA (unweighted). My ACT Composite score was 34, and I am an AP Scholar with Honors.I have developed effective learning techniques and study habits and my goal as a tutor is to pass these skill along to my students. I excel at explaining complicated ideas and problems in easy to understand plain English. On a personal level, I believe in the power of positive thought and I go out of my way to connect with my student and utilize positive reinforcement. I am passionate about teaching a variety of different subjects, including ACT and SAT preparation as well as English, history, economics, and mathematics.

Having trouble with or worried about physical science courses or mathematics? I can show you how to solve problems in ways that will increase your understanding AND will increase your ability to complete them successfully for homework and tests. I am certified to teach physics at the high school level. I taught high school physics for 17 years before going on to further graduate study. I also have experience teaching mathematics at the community college level. I can help you with chemistry, physics, statistics and/or calculus for high school, Advanced Placement or introductory college level. I can also help with standardized testing such as ACT, SAT or GRE.

My area of expertise is mathematics, specifically, SAT Math, SAT II Math level 1 and 2, and AMC 12. It goes without saying that in order to excel in these exams, the student must possess a solid foundation in Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, and Pre-Calculus.But first and foremost, it is important that each student identifies the reason that he or she is studying for. Once that goal is vividly envisioned by the student, he or she will find enjoyment and satisfaction in understanding and applying new concepts as the student progresses towards his or her goal one step at a time. After we gain some momentum, it is simply a matter of time before the student masters each mathematical concept.I teach and study math with great passion, and I like to pass on my enthusiasm to my students with patience, challenges, and without overwhelming them or giving them the answers.

I am a graduate of Cornell University. I received my Bachelor of Science in Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering, with a focus in Systems Biology. After graduation, I joined a rotational leadership development program which has allowed me the opportunity to expand my knowledge into many industries and functional areas, as well as work with colleagues from around the world.Throughout my life, I have been passionate about learning, and have shared this love for learning through teaching. My first experiences of teaching came early in life, when a teacher recommended that I use my mastery of content and easy way of explaining material to tutor fellow students after school. From those first moments of realizing the enormously positive impact I could have in a student's ability to master content, I have always incorporated teaching into my life. In college, I tutored extensively in fundamental engineering courses, and conducted workshops to further strengthen my students' understanding of the material. Standardized testing is one of my strong suits, and I enjoy helping students advance in their performance in Critical Reading, Math, and Writing.I believe a strong foundation in education is vital for future success. I've had wonderful opportunities because of my strong educational background, and I try to impart this appreciation to all my students. In my spare time, I enjoy teaching dance, playing music, and traveling throughout the US and the rest of the world.

I am a great teacher with over 8 years teaching experience teaching children from Grades K through 12. I received my B.S. in Industrial and Labor Relations from Cornell University in Ithaca, N.Y. and a certificate in Special Education from the Hudson County Schools of Technology in North Bergen, New Jersey. I worked as a tutor for the State Tutoring Program in Arizona from 2013 to 2016. From the academic year of 2016 to 2017, I worked as a Substitute Teacher with Kelly Educational Services teaching Mathematics and English to elementary kids at the Roosevelt School district in Phoenix, Arizona.
