I graduated with a BS with Pre-med requirements from Cornell University and an MSW and MPH from Columbia University. I have experience in teaching Chemistry to incoming college freshmen and serving as a teaching assistant in psychology, biology, and math. I have also tutored elementary to middle school students in math, English, writing and have also assisted international school students in Japan. I am bilingual in English in Japanese. I have helped students who are upset and ashamed to regain confidence and joy in learning. I prioritize helping students finding study skills that work best for them, and reminding them that anybody can and will grow once we can figure out how they learn best and have fun. I ensure that students are understanding concepts by having them explain them back to me.

I am a recent graduate of Cornell University. I graduated from the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences (CALS) at Cornell with a Bachelor’s in Science. I majored in Biology with a concentration in Molecular and Cell Biology. I am currently working in medical research here in New York and am planning on applying to MD and MD/PHD programs. I have worked in many different study group environments and I believe that putting topics and ideas into the proper context makes the information easier to process as well as more memorable to the student. I have seen this in everything from US History to biology and truly believe this is the best way to fully understand and grasp new concepts. My down time consists of a lot of physical activity, whether that is in the form of going to the gym or playing ice hockey and soccer. I find staying physically active is a great way to balance the academic challenges in my life and allows for me to have a productive escape whenever I need one.

After graduating from Cornell University with my Bachelors in Physics and German Studies, I am currently enrolled in the Materials Science and Engineering PhD program at the University of Michigan. I enjoy tutoring students because I was once on the other side of the table! While at Cornell, a physics graduate student provided me with supportive, concept-based, and empathetic tutoring that greatly increased my self-confidence and mastery of the course material. In my tutoring sessions, I use many techniques which I learned from him, and my #1 goal is to empathize with the student and make them feel valued despite their academic struggles. My tutoring sessions focus on helping the student understand the "why" -- "why is equation X appropriate and not equation Y?". From my own experience, this approach allows students to fully understand the course material and apply it in a variety of settings, from academia to careers and internships.I have completed over 500 hours of tutoring at 3 different companies, and have proofread cover letters and resumes for adults seeking new job opportunities. I continue to keep my German skills sharp by regularly watching German television and news, and have achieved CEFR Level C2 Proficiency (highest possible) in all areas of the German language (reading, writing, speaking, and listening).

Hello! My name is Ammaar and I am a sophomore at Cornell University studying Information Science and Computational Biology.As a former high school student eager to make my application the strongest and genuine as possible, I fell in love with the college application process. I have written and edited countless personal statements to college supplemental questions. Along with my interest in college applications, I also gathered various helpful strategies and techniques applicable in many situations on standardized exams--and understandable for any type of student!For all of my students I have a strong approach:- Confirming WHAT specifically you are struggling with- Examining WHY you are struggling with it- Establishing and Testing different methods and tips helpful specifically to you- Nailing down the topics you feel weak on

I recently graduated from Cornell University in May 2014. I received my Bachelor of Science in Chemical Engineering with a concentration in Business. Math and Science have always fascinated me because of their applications to the technology we use in everyday life. As a tutor, these are my favorite subjects to work with because they involve definite answers that are firmly rooted in logic. My mission in helping students with these subjects is to show them how to break down complex problems into simple steps. This methodology will enable them to not only succeed in courses and on standardized tests, but also to develop an analytical mindset that will benefit them for the rest of their lives. Outside of my academic life, I enjoy weight lifting, soccer, playing guitar, and reading fiction.

I am a graduate from Cornell University where I received a bachelor's degree in Biological Engineering with a minor in Mechanical Engineering. For several years, I have always had a passion for tutoring/teaching others around me whether they were children, classmates or adults much older than I. From my studies, my favorite subjects to help with were Mathematics and Physics; they are closely integrated with each other and personally it is rewarding when my students understand concepts that they initially struggled with. As for my past tutoring experience, I volunteered teaching GED courses around the Brooklyn area. I also took up private one to one sessions with locals who requested my help in subjects. Currently I am teaching an after-school program where I show middle school students STEM related topics through hands on activities. I am also volunteering with SAT Math through Brooklyn College on Saturdays and I am a part time bartender around the Park Slope area. When I am not busy working, I enjoy cycling, playing video games, and just kicking it back with friends.

I'm here to assist with any current or aspiring college students with making the grades for, getting into, and thriving at college.My tutoring experience has spanned a wide variety of students over several years: from serving as a teaching aide for high school students with special needs, to working as a teaching assistant for elementary, middle, and high school students at a gifted academic summer camp, to working as a full-time in-school tutoring fellow at an urban middle school. This is in addition to more than a decade of informal experience assisting friends and family academically as I've balanced pursuing an Ivy League undergraduate degree.Writing has been a lifelong strength of mine, and I've enjoyed taking on positions where I've helped others improve their writing. The most prominent example of this would be serving a year as a staff editor, then two more years as Editor in Chief of a widely distributed campus magazine in college. I've also assisted students with resume, college admissions, and academic essay writing.Math, mainly Algebra (but spanning up to statistics and calculus II) has also always been a strong subject for me, and the majority of my professional tutoring experience comes from a full year, full-time fellowship teaching pre-algebra and algebra I.My interest in assisting with college admissions stems from: 1) getting into an Ivy League school, 2) qualifying for scholarships (including full-ride) to universities through National Merit & National Achievement PSAT Scholarships, 3) serving as a summer teaching assistant in a College Admissions course for gifted high school students, and 4) volunteering by introducing low-income students to the college application process.My schedule currently allows me to be flexible in terms of times and locations for tutoring sessions, both in-person and online. Reach out to me for details!

I graduated with a B.A from Cornell University and majored in biology (premed) with a concentration in genetics. I am currently a 3rd year medical student at DUCOM and am passionate about biology, biochemistry and English. I understand the struggle of memorising small details and struggling to understand the big picture conceptually. I look forward to working with students struggling with stem courses

As a passionate tutor with a Bachelor's of Science in Human Development and Information Science from Cornell University and the University of Michigan - Ann Arbor, I have over 5 years of experience in helping students excel in college application essays and essay editing. I have helped students receive admissions to top universities including Cornell University, the University of Southern California, the University of Miami, Wake Forest University, Tulane University, Boston College, Georgetown University, and the University of Michigan. My teaching philosophy centers on creating a supportive learning environment where students feel encouraged to express their ideas and develop their writing skills. I believe that effective communication is key to academic success, and I strive to connect with each student on a personal level to foster their confidence and creativity.

I am a undergraduate student at Cornell University. I am studying computer science in the College of Engineering. I have been tutoring in all subjects since 9th grade, mostly computer science and mathematics and SAT. My teaching philosophy is based on hands-on learning, and the motto of 'practice makes perfection'. The more you face the problem head on and break it into smaller pieces, the easier the problem becomes to solve. In my spare time, I like to go outside on runs and play basketball with my friends

My academic background is in Math and Computer Science. I hold a bachelors of Mathematics from University of Florida and a Masters of Computer Science from Cornell University and I am currently pursuing a PhD in Computer Science. Outside of tutoring, my full time career is in software development.I'm comfortable tutoring high school and college level math and computer science as well as SAT and GRE prep. And my style of tutoring focuses on not just rote memorization of concepts but learning how and when to apply the right tool for the job. I've always loved creative problem solving and like to help my students learn to enjoy even tough topics like Trigonometry or Calculus as puzzles that require a lot of creative thinking. I've had some great teachers and mentors through the years who have shaped how I think, and I always enjoy the opportunity to pay that forward.Outside of my professional career, I'm a husband and father of four children. And I'm an avid life long learner.

As a Cornell Student and someone who raised my own SAT score from 1350 to 1480, scoring 770 in Math and 710 in Reading and Writing, I understand firsthand how the right approach can unlock a student's full potential. My teaching style is highly repetition-based: I focus on helping students master patterns, build confidence through consistent practice, and develop efficient problem-solving habits that stick. I also excelled in middle school and high school attending specialized schools. I have prior experience helping students prepare for the SAT, particularly in Math, where I emphasize conceptual understanding over memorization. I enjoy tailoring my sessions to each student's needs, ensuring that complex topics become intuitive and that progress is both measurable and motivating. My goal is to make studying less stressful and more methodical, showing students that progress comes from clarity, structure, and steady effort.

I am a rising sophomore at Cornell University, studying Human Biology, Health and Society. I am on the premed track and am pursuing a minor in South Asian Studies. I was born in India and grew up in Singapore and Buffalo, NY, where I currently live. This past semester, I tutored middle and high school students in math, biology, and chemistry in Ithaca. I also particularly enjoy tutoring for standardized tests such as the ACT, as I feel it is where students are able to make a lot of progress quickly, and it also tends to be the most rewarding for both the students and for me! As someone who loves making organized and detailed plans, I believe having a clear set of goals for one's future is the key to success, and this can be applied to anything, from a single test to one's entire career. I would love to help my students with setting goals and making plans in their high school and/or college careers, in addition to tutoring a specific subject! In college, I am most involved with Cornell's Hindu Student Council and SPICMACAY, an Indian classical music and dance organization. Outside of academia, I sing South Indian classical music and play many different genres of the piano.

I tutor based on the needs and wants of each of my clients. My thought process is that each person is different from the next, and needs to be treated as such. Every student has a unique learning style, and figuring out what works for an individual person is the key to success. I am a Cornell University student who has recent history with the ACT (both in tutoring and actual test-taking!). As such, I know the steps needed to succeed and maximize your potential score. I look forward to helping all future clients!

I am currently an undergraduate student at Cornell University. I intend to major in physics and either minor or double major in computer science.In the past, I have tutored middle school and high school students, mostly in mathematics, but I also helped with middle school science and English as well as ACT preparation. I look forward to tutoring students in computer science, especially object-oriented programming; mathematics, from middle school mathematics to multivariable calculus and differential equations; preparation for the ACT, SAT, and AP tests; and topics in literature and history. My favorite subject to tutor is probably calculus because calculus really opens students' options for further exploration in math, science, economics, and pretty much every other STEM field.When it comes to tutoring, I believe that in order to give useful feedback to a student I need to observe and listen to them just as much they need to listen to me. Only then can I see what they need help understanding and how best to approach explaining it to them by building on their strengths. I think it's important to allow students time to think about problems and try to approach them on their own before giving them guidance so that they can develop confidence in their own ability to approach similar challenges independently.I have many hobbies outside of my academic pursuits. I enjoy reading a variety of genres especially science fiction, fantasy, weird fiction, and all sorts of non-fiction. I sometimes try my hand at writing short stories or poetry. I also frequently play musical instruments and listen to music. I play the guitar, mandolin, and trumpet and sometimes the keyboards or bass guitar. My favorite genres to listen to are jazz, progressive rock, folk, classic rock, and classical music. Some of my favorite bands and composers are King Crimson, Pink Floyd, Yes, Sun Ra, Miles Davis, Paul Simon, Led Zeppelin, and many others.

I am a recent graduate of Cornell University, where I acquired a B.S. and M.Eng in Electrical and Computer Engineering and a minor in Computer Science. I've enjoyed assisting in education for as long as I can remember (cheesy, I know); I loved being a little "teacher's assistant" at my grandmother's preschool in Guatemala as a child. I tutored my peers a little bit in high school. While at university, I was a teaching assistant for Intro Digital Logic for 6 semesters, where I was energized by guiding students to the a-ha moments that led me to pursue a career in computer architecture.I am happy to tutor Computer Engineering and Programming principles in Python, C, and Verilog. I can also teach conversational Spanish or ESL, for I am fluent in Spanish and English.Outside of my current professional work at AMD, I like to stay active by lifting and swimming, try different foods, and go to coffee shops to read or work on side programming projects.

I just completed my undergraduate degree in mathematics at Cornell University, with a minor in computer science. I will be pursuing a Master of Science in computer science at Cornell for the next two years. Teaching has always been a passion of mine, as has mathematics - and I am always eager to share this excitement with others.

I am a recent graduate and current graduate student from Cornell University. I received my Bachelor of Arts and Sciences in Biology and Society with a concentration in Health and Humanities and a minor in Nutritional Sciences. I am currently pursuing a Masters in Public Health concentrating in Food Systems and Health. During my undergrad, I cofounded an organization called Cornell College and Career Readiness Initiative (CCRI). I am still actively involved in this program serving as a mentor and tutor for local high school students in SAT prep, high school English, Math and Science courses, and in college essay writing/admissions.Throughout my academic career, I have looked to tutoring services to give me the guidance and confidence needed to navigate my courses and perform well. I have learned that efforts are most successful if delivered in a way that people can understand. Everyone learns differently and for that reason, my goal is to establish a tutoring style that favors your learning style for overall success. I am really passionate about writing, health sciences and academic counseling/support. In my free time, I write public health related content in English and Spanish for my blog, go on (short) runs with my puppy, and binge Netflix shows.

I am passionate about empowering others to not only reach academic progress, but also gain a greater self-confidence through encouraging, patient tutoring. I am a middle school school STEM teacher seeking additional students to help in my out-of-work hours. Finally, I am a Cornell University alum and am confident in my ability to teach students in a range of fields - anything from English, ESL, art, writing, social studies to math and computers. Looking forward to hearing from you!Lena

I am currently a senior at Cornell University, pursuing a major in Industrial Labor Relations and minors in Philosophy as well as Italian. I've been fortunate enough to have teachers and professors throughout my life that were able to convey the importance of education while allowing students to discover their own passions within subjects. This is a method that I have carried with me, that has guided my experiences. While I tutor a variety of subjects, I am most passionate about economics, philosophy, and writing. Outside of the classroom, I do theatre as well as tennis. In my free time, I have an insatiable appetite for reading and writing (my favorite book is Tolstoy's War and Peace).

Currently I am a graduate student in Stanford University's Master's Program for Human Genetics and Genetic Counseling. Prior to my enrollment at Stanford, I worked as a Genetic Counseling Assistant for Igenomix, a genetic testing laboratory. I graduated from Cornell University in December of 2021 with a BS in Biological Sciences and a minor in Education. As a student, I was a member of a research lab that works with the genetic basis of epilepsy in fruit flies as well as an undergraduate TA for a genetics laboratory course at Cornell. While I tutor a range of subjects, I am most passionate about tutoring biology and genetics, as that is where most of my expertise lies. I have enjoyed tutoring SAT and ACT math and science sections in the past and have found students have great success on these stressful tests after seeking out help from tutors like me. In my free time I love watching TV shows with my friends, being active, and painting. I am also a Crisis Text Line volunteer and enjoy taking shifts to help people through difficult times.

I am currently a rising junior at Cornell University studying physics. I have worked with students of the elementary, middle, and high school levels in subjects such as math, physics, and even music production! I mainly focus on tutoring math and physics because I believe having a deep understanding of these subjects allows one to think more analytically of the world around us. I also believe in getting to know how a student learns best, as everyone learns differently, and tailoring lessons with that learning method in mind.

Ashley is a medical student at RWJMS and recent graduate of Cornell University. She majored in chemistry and was awarded cum laude after spending a majority of her undergraduate career researching with the Lancaster Group. Ashley has over 4 years of tutoring experience.

I am a student at Cornell University studying Chemical Engineering and Computer Science. I'm living in Tarrytown right now and can help your son or daughter in math, science, or SAT/ACT prep! Over the past 5 years, I've accumulated many hours of tutoring experience. Some of the subjects I tutor include:-HS / AP Chemistry-HS / AP Physics-All Math Levels (Algebra, Trig, Precalc, Calculus, etc)- SATII Math (Both levels)-SAT / ACT Math- ACT ScienceOne of my core teaching methods is getting the student to thoughtfully approach questions and logically approach problems. I believe strongly that a student should be guided through problems rather than simply told whether they are right or wrong (that's what an answer key is for!). A tutor should provide feedback on their thought processes as well as follow through all possible choices when given options such as multiple choice. This way, students can learn to identify the right answer. My age gives me an advantage in that I have been in the shoes of all of my students not too many years ago. Not only do I currently use the information/skills that I help students acquire, but I believe I can act as a role model to encourage students that working hard pays off, and it is in fact cool to succeed in math and science. There is a huge reward for diligence, hard work, and success, and I try to instill these in every person I assist.My coursework has included Differential Equations, Multivariable Calculus, Discrete Math, etc. as well as lots of Physics courses (Heat and Mass Transfer, Mechanics, E&M, Fluid Mechanics), so you can be sure Physics and Math are my thing.Please consider me in helping you or your child, and I will do just that, to the best of my abilities.

I am currently a student at Cornell University. I am working towards a BS in Biometry and Statistics. I hope to someday go to Medical School. Previously, I tutored middle school and high school students with the "Boys and Girls Club" in many subject areas from Chemistry to Statistics. Also, I led private sessions for high school students in my hometown community. I am most passionate about tutoring Mathematics. I am best in Algebra 1, Algebra 2, Statistics and Geometry, but I can tutor other areas of Mathematics as well. I look forward to assisting students in the Math sections of the SAT as well. In working with students, I found that students enjoy what they are learning once they understand the material. I hope to instill additional study skills and tactics in tutoring. My biggest teaching philosophy is the importance of hard work as it is paramount to success. In my free time I like playing basketball, going out to get food, running, and fishing.

As a Teacher knowledgeable of the needs of Students With Disabilities, my duty has been to ensure the success of all students under my charge. I've been very adamant about advocating for better placement, accommodation, and services for all students, as SPED pedagogy is not only beneficial to SPED students, but general students as a whole. I have been mindful of the 60/40 Integrated Co-Teaching (ICT) compliance compositions, Individualized Education Plan (IEP) setting compliance, and above all, delivery of services by a SPED instructor.

I began pursuing my D.V.M. degree at the Cornell College of Veterinary Medicine after graduating from Eastern Michigan University in 2012 with a degree in Biology. Following my first year of vet school I decided to take some time off to study advanced Mandarin Chinese at Tsinghua University in Beijing with other Mandarin speaking students from around the world. I currently work as a professional Medical Mandarin Chinese interpreter while continuing my second year of veterinary studies at Cornell. My teaching experience is diverse, ranging from leading English classes in Beijing China to running a Medical Mandarin Chinese course for vet students at Cornell University. I have also worked with students taking high school and college level biology and Chinese courses.My favorite subject to tutor is Mandarin Chinese, because I know exactly how to help new or experienced learners advance their skills rapidly and efficiently and I really enjoy seeing students make breakthroughs on the way to fluency in Chinese. Between the four tones of spoken Mandarin and the 4,000 plus characters there are plenty of obstacles to overcome when learning Mandarin Chinese. I enjoy using innovative methods to provide tips and reveal patterns in Chinese language that help students make the learning process not only more intuitive but also enjoyable. As a tutor I consider each students learning style and needs unique and work specifically to come up with goals that address areas of interest and to tackle particularly challenging issues within each subject.

I am a graduate of Cornell University (B.A.) and the University of Miami (M.S.Ed.). I earned my Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy with a minor in Women's Studies. I also earned my masters in education where I did research on literacy and writing strategies for students in grades 6-12. For the past 6 years I've been teaching ELA for 9th and 10th graders in Miami, FL. I've also tutored students who were struggling to prepare for Standardized Tests in the areas of Critical Reading and Writing exams. I firmly believe that any student can learn the literacy skills necessary to navigate the world.

Hi guys! My name is Mohammed Islam, but all my friends call me Mo. I'm a freshman engineering student at Cornell University studying Computer Science. If you need help in any STEM subject, I'm your guy. But if you still want to talk about you English Essay problems or SAT Writing issues, I can definitely help there. Outside of that, I'm willing to help in whatever issues you have, school related or not. Hoping to hear from a lot of you.

Scientific curiosity is necessary to inspire the next generation of young scientists. I did not begin to see the possibilities of scientific curiosity until I was 13, and only through a short summer camp. I did not feel very engaged in my science classes until sophomore year of high school, when I found a love for chemistry. Without the encouragement of my scientifically inclined family, I might have lost interest in science long before that chemistry class. As a woman, I hope young girls will be inspired to follow a path similar to mine. While women are 50% of the population, they are significantly underrepresented in STEM fields. I believe that there are many more women out there who might have followed a similar path to mine, had they been given the encouragement and inspiration that I had.Since high school, I have had the opportunity to work in several teaching environments including classroom work, one-on-one tutoring, and group work. In high school, I worked as a teaching assistant in my synagogue’s Hebrew school, where I worked with 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders. My senior year of high school, I tutored three home-schooled children in Hebrew, designing all lesson plans, activities, and tests. Between high school and college, I spent a year in Israel, as I knew engineering would make a semester abroad difficult. For three months of my time there, I volunteered in a grade school English class and after-school program for teenage kids in an underprivileged neighborhood. In the grade school, I sat in the class with the children, and helped them follow the lesson plan to enhance their learning experience. In the after-school program, I worked one-on-one with the students, assisting them with their math and English homework.In college, I had two major teaching experiences. My senior year, I worked as a workshop coordinator for freshman chemistry students. The purpose of the workshop was to give students an extra hour of work per week to enhance their understanding of the subject. I also came up with example problems and challenge problems to complement their homework and better prepare them for exams. My senior year I was a TA for a junior level chemical engineering course. The work was similar to the workshop I taught, with the added responsibility of grading. In graduate school, I worked one-on-one with several undergraduate students. I designed a presentation on data analysis to help them understand the best ways to present different types of data. In my 4 years at Penn State, I mentored and trained 7 undergraduate students to help them complete their senior theses and independent studies. For one year, I collaborated with a 4th grade teacher at a nearby elementary school to create and implement an active science curriculum. I designed experiments, activities, and thought exercises for the class to help them better understand scientific concepts of their curriculum.I completed my BS in Chemical Engineering at Cornell University and my PhD in Materials Science and Engineering at Penn State University. I am prepared to tutor students in Math, Science, and Engineering at nearly all levels. I especially enjoy Algebra, Calculus and Chemistry.

I am a 2012 graduate of Cornell University. Following graduation, I worked at a startup for a few years and am now applying to law school. After tutoring several students privately, I found that one-on-one learning is very efficient and a great way to catch up and/or stay ahead. I enjoy working with students of all ages and abilities. I make your challenges mine, and we work together to design an individualized learning technique. I strive to make learning fun, and we set realistic goals. I am qualified to teach middle and high school math, chemistry, and English writing and literature. I can also help with preparation and test-taking strategies for the ISEE, SAT, and ACT. I can be your guide and critic in helping you construct your college application essays and make them substantively interesting and grammatically perfect. Aside from tutoring, I enjoy swimming, working out in the gym, playing tennis, and composing hip-hop beats.

I'm currently a researcher in the biomedical field with my B.S in Biomedical Engineering from Cornell University. With several years of tutoring experience under my belt, and a long journey of figuring out my own techniques for studying and retaining vital classroom knowledge, I have a tool belt ready of methods to succeed in the classroom. Additionally, I have worked with students on all sides of the learning/comprehension spectrum and will help your child gain the confidence and skills necessary for long term success!

I am a recent graduate of Cornell University where I majored in Industrial and Labor Relations. Additionally, I minored in International Relations, Law and Society, Latin American Studies and Business. I first gained experience in tutoring working with younger children at a private tutoring company. It was exciting to see them improve and make great strides on a weekly basis. My personal favorite subjects as a student were history and english, but I find helping students who struggle with math equally as gratifying. I also enjoy tutoring for standardized exams such as the SAT because of how easy it is for students to improve once they are taught techniques and begin to practice them. As the son of a teacher I was always taught that education was vital and necessary to succeed. I passionately believe this and in tutoring try my best to give students the tools so that they could garner the most out of their education. My favorite hobbies include traveling, reading, and going to the gym.

I'm a graduate of Cornell University, where I earned a Bachelor's degree in Chemistry & Chemical Biology with a focus on food science. After graduation I decided to take a gap year before applying for a graduate degree program and worked for six months at a winery internship in California. Over my high school and college years I tutored high school students in a variety of math and science topics, my favorites being Geometry and Chemistry. In my experience working with students who are struggling in math and science, I aim to help them develop their problem solving toolkit and build confidence in their academic intuitions. I also hope to pass on my passion for math and science to my students and make these often unpopular subjects more enjoyable. I'm a very visual learner and teacher, and I like to use charts, drawings, and physical models to help illustrate abstract concepts and make them more tangible and understandable. In this way, I've channeled my interest in chemistry into a love of food science, and in my free time I like cooking, reading, photography, and crafts.

As a recent graduate student of archaeology at Cornell University, I will be able to help students with subjects ranging from anthropology, archaeology, geography, and social studies. I have conducted research in Romania, Italy, and most recently in Jordan for my thesis; "Resettlement of the Bdul and its effect on Preservation Initiatives at Petra, Jordan." Please let me know if you would like any additional information!

I graduated from Cornell University in May of 2017 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Economics and minors in English and Business. During my senior year, I wrote intersectional analyses of philosophical and modernist texts, attempting to reveal a more critically substantial relationship between the two fields than conventional allegorical implications imply. I currently work as a managing editor and staff writer for a music publication based in Brooklyn, and have significant experience within the music industry having participated in a variety of publishing, PR, label operations, audio production, and commercial radio-related roles. I tutor in English, Economics, and standardized tests, and enjoy assisting students to develop their own creative voices and avenues of interpretation and problem solving. I love walking around the city, reading fiction and philosophy, and writing poetry.

I completed my PhD in English at Harvard University in 2016 and I have been working with students for over 10 years. I've always enjoyed introducing students to new ideas and helping them achieve their goals. In the following paragraphs I'll share my background, detail my experience and expertise, and discuss what motivates me as a teacher. I will also explain my approach to pedagogy.In 2004 I graduated summa cum laude from Cornell University. The following summer I earned a CELTA certification to teach English as a second language in London. I then worked internationally for four years in Prague, Rome, Brussels, and Milan, teaching students of all ages and backgrounds. I helped hundreds of students score highly on the TOEFL exam and gain admission to top American and British universities. I also helped many students excel on the SAT and GRE verbal exam by helping them extend their vocabulary and develop their analytical reasoning skills.I left Europe when I was accepted to Harvard University's PhD program in English, which I began in 2008. I received my master's degree from Harvard in 2010 and the following fall I began assisting professors with their courses in Harvard College as a doctoral student. I worked closely with some of the best professors in the world and I modeled my unique pedagogy after their example.As a scholar with a traditional background in the liberal arts, I share my mentors' staunch commitment to the humanities and the Socratic method as the best way for young minds to discover their potential and develop critical reasoning skills. There are so many dubious test prep and admissions gimmicks out there, but the fact remains that America's best universities look for a particular kind of candidate, a well-rounded student who can reason confidently and express his or her pattern-breaking ideas with clarity, conviction, and grace. No matter what subject I happen to be teaching, everything I do as an instructor brings students a step closer to this significant achievement, one which will truly help them stand out from the crowd.Last year I worked full time for a veterans' non-profit, helping hundreds of servicemen and women transition from the military and gain admission to competitive American universities. Recently, however, I relocated to the Houston area because my fiancee, who also has a PhD in English, now teaches at a major university here. While I continue my research and work towards publishing my dissertation, I will be accepting students for verbal section test prep for all major standardized tests (SAT, ACT, TOEFL, GRE, LSAT, GMAT, etc.). I am also available for lessons in any humanities related field, from history and literature to philosophy, psychology, cultural studies, and world civilization. My broad experience as a teacher qualifies me to work with students from middle school all the way to the PhD.I look forward to hearing about your personal vision of success and helping you accomplish it!

I am an undergraduate Cornell University. I will receive my Bachelor of Arts in Biological Sciences and Psychology with a minor in French. Since graduation from high school, I have tutored children from various education systems as a part of REACH and college students by being an Undergraduate Teaching Assistant. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about Biology, Chemistry, Math, and Physics. In my experience helping struggling students prepare for Standardized Tests, I always see the most improvement in prepping for the Math and Science portions of the exams. I am a firm supporter of learning, believing that it is absolutely important for a better quality of life, and I strive to give all of my students this respect. I love sketching which enriches my life, dancing, running and tennis in my spare time.

I am a diligent student, currently attending Cornell University for meteorology. I am committed to excellence in everything I do. I am extremely passionate about music. In fact, one of my favorite things to do in life is write/play/listen to music. I spend much of my free time doing these things. I also enjoy playing sports such as soccer and basketball.
