I am a graduate of Hunter College with a Masters of Science in Education, with a focus on Deaf and Hard of Hearing and Students with Disabilities. I am certified as a New York State teacher, working with the New York City Department of Education. My philosophy on teaching is quite simple: each student learns in their own way and it is the responsibility of a teacher/tutor to determine how a student learns, determine their needs and create lessons that the student will feel successful in completing while fostering their unique learning styles. When I am not teaching, I enjoy spending time with my family, learning new things, taking my dog for long walks and curling up on the porch with a good book or the latest "it" book.

I have a long history with my own education that started at a boarding school in the Northeast and continued through college programs at the University of Chicago, San Francisco Art Institute, and Hunter College and Baruch College in New York City. I currently hold two masters degrees, one in Fine Art and one in Education.I have worked with younger people since my first volunteer work at a public school on the south side of the Chicago in the early 90s. I have been a teacher in public schools for the last 10 years, but was a teacher both in Japan and in New York City before I began my current position.Generally my expertise lies in mathematics but I am confident in my abilities in helping students complete homework in all academic areas. I like teaching math because over the years I have built up a great deal of insight into different ways to explain core mathematical concepts and relationships. As a tutor I like to find a baseline where my student feels confident and build on that confidence. I believe in practicing success but learning from failure.Outside of academia I play ultimate frisbee, electric guitar and have started fooling around on the piano in recent years.
I am seeking my Bachelor's in Mathematics from Hunter College. I am a highly skilled and motivated individual who possesses a passion for teaching. I am extremely organized and provide everything necessary to ensure the success of my students. I have vast experience tutoring children and adults between the ages of 6-25 from basic Algebra to Calculus II. I provide a calendar with specific test dates to help students become more organized. I create tests based on questions which the students struggle answering. I create detailed study guides for every section that I teach so that students have access to easy to understand explanations of material at any time. I work with parents, as well, to better understand my students' learning styles and tailor and establish the perfect tutoring relationships. Every single one of my students has succeeded and thrived academically and this is of the utmost importance to me, as my students are a direct reflection of me. My interests and hobbies include basketball, hiking, swimming, and running.
I earned my BS in Business Administration with a concentration in Marketing from Towson University and both my MA in TESOL and my Advanced Certificate in Administration and Supervision from Hunter College. After graduating Towson, I wanted to find a job in business, but after living in Rome, Italy, and tutoring English I felt the call to become a teacher. Even now, I hold a NYS School Building Leader license but choose not to pursue a job as principal because I love teaching too much! The relationships I build with my students while I help them achieve their success are why I love going to work every day.My experience consists of teaching and tutoring for 9 years in two NYC high schools - one very competitive, and the other with a poor inner-city population. As a result, I'm very aware of how to vary instruction based on a student's needs, skill level, background knowledge, and individual goals. In addition, I have taught and tutored a variety of courses such as ESL (beginner, intermediate, advanced), ELA, Global Studies 9 and 10, U.S. History, U.S. History Regents Prep, and SAT Critical Reading Prep.I enjoy tutoring the content of U.S. History and Global Studies because as a former high school AP student the subjects always fascinated me, and I take pleasure in fostering my students' interest in the subject as well. However, I also enjoy teaching reading comprehension and writing skills because they are applicable to not only history and English, but other subjects, too.My philosophy on tutoring is that it is a partnership; I provide the content knowledge and strategies for delivering the content in comprehensible and fun manner while the student dedicates his/her time and effort. Finally, I take great pride in my students' success, and I am their cheerleader and tireless advocate!When I'm not teaching or tutoring, I enjoy going to the gym, studying Italian and Spanish, traveling, taking salsa and bachata classes, being outdoors, meeting new people, and using Groupon to try new things - including those out of my comfort zone.I look forward to working with you!
I am a clinical RDN with clinical nutrition research, teaching, and tutoring experience. I am passionate about teaching and helping my students and dietetic interns to accomplish their goals. I take pride in finding new, fun, and silly, yet memorable, ways of breaking down difficult material. I value taking time with students so that they truly understand concepts, instead of just memorizing it (especially for the RD exam). Students have said they really enjoy and find it helpful when I use my clinical and research background to apply topics being learned to real-life examples.Courses I am confident in tutoring include:- RD Exam Prep- Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT) I, II, and III- Macronutrient Metabolism- Micronutrient Metabolism- Foodservice Management- World Nutrition- Research Methods- Nutrition Counseling- Nutrition Assessment through the Lifecycle- Community Nutrition- Nutritional Biochemistry- Statistics 101I primarily prepare students for the RD exam but I am happy to help with any nutrition-related course/classwork and provide guidance to students aiming to match with dietetic internships as well. I can also help with resume preparation, mock interviews, and general guidance throughout the DICAS application process.My favorite course to tutor are Medical Nutrition Therapy because of my clinical and clinical nutrition research background and RD exam prep.I currently hold a Bachelor of Arts Degree from CUNY Hunter College. I graduated from Drexel University with a Master of Science in Human Nutrition with a Clinical Nutrition Research concentration in 2019. Afterward, I matched with my first ranked internship choice and went on to complete my dietetic internship at the National Institutes of Health. I am a Ph.D. student and teacher's assistant at Drexel University in their Nutrition Sciences department, with a concentration in nutritional neuroscience. I currently part part-time as a clinical dietitian and dietetic intern preceptor as well.
Education truly is the social justice issue of our time; no other endeavor is so far-reaching in its ability to precipitate change in all other areas of society. It is this principal that drives me as an educator; as a teacher and tutor I am entrusted with the privilege of sharing the gift of culture, conversation and critical-thinking.I have been a primary school dual language teacher in New York City for the past 4 years. I have a Bachelor's Degree in Linguistics from Georgetown University and a Master's Degree in Education from Hunter College, which I received through the New York City Teaching Fellows program.My teaching and tutoring practices are based in student-led, performance-based learning that allows students to work towards their goals in at their own pace and according to their own personal learning needs. I am a firm believer in making content relevant and relatable so as to facilitate the integration of new concepts and ideas.I am trained and certified to teach all of the content areas for grades 1-6 (English Language Arts, STEM, Social Studies, etc.), and am also qualified to teach Spanish Language up through the college level.As your tutor, I will do everything I can to help you reach your goals!
My philosophy on education is to nurture the individual through my teaching and guidance. My goal is to build relationships with the students I tutor so that they will feel comfortable and learn everything they need help with. I look forward to meeting my future students that I will be tutoring!
I am a recent Hunter College undergrad (majored in Neuroscience) working as a Biology and Chemistry teacher at Lower Manhattan Art Academy (a Title 1 school) during the day and tutoring in the evening. I have been tutoring since high school in all subjects, and more recently, college students in Statistics and high school juniors in SAT prep. I also spent this last winter abroad in Ecuador teaching high school students the English language. I have an extra close connection with middle and high school students as I have two brothers in those grades and through my other previous/current experiences. I volunteer with the Red Cross where I am a part of the PillowCase seminars where I go into middle school classes and stress the importance of fire safety. I also volunteer with Peer Health Exchange, an organization that delivers 9th graders health seminars to those that may not receive health class in high school. Lastly, I volunteered at Rockefeller University Science OutReach Lab where I instruct middle/high school students basic science laboratory techniques and share some of my college experience. I look forward to sharing my knowledge in a variety of subjects and getting to know each student that is lucky enough to have me as a tutor. Best, Miles Dijan

What I like most about tutoring is the opportunity to individualize the learning process for each student, as everyone learns differently. From 8th grade until my senior year I was homeschooled. I did not realize the advantage of my personalized curriculum until I went to college. Being homeschooled gave me the great gift of a genuine love of learning. I try to inspire this love in my students. I enjoy seeing people thrive and grow and understand that patience and positivity goes a long way. I look forward to helping you take your education to the next level.I have experience working and volunteering with pupils of all ages, ranging from 4 to 35. I have worked one-on-one and in small groups. My favorite moment in a session is when a student lights up after they finally understand the material. Students that require additional attention are especially excited when they are able to cross the bridge from unsure to sure and it is a really rewarding thing behold!
I speak Spanish fluently, and I am a native speaker. I am a licensed Spanish teacher by the state of North Carolina. I also teach ELA to middle school students. I teach ELL(English Language Learners) to high school students. I have dedicated my life to being the best individual and professional I can be. I have committed myself to being a model citizen. I have worked as a business owner providing jobs to others and contributed to driving the economy of Greensboro, North Carolina as an entrepreneur. I have also worked as an educator for over 14 years fostering positive relationships with students, parents, and administrators. More importantly, I have taken my professional career seriously and constantly sought challenging ways to grow as a person and in my line of work. I participated in continuing education along with reading an extensive number of books to master my craft. Understanding that growth comes from guidance of those who have done the work successfully. I have aligned myself with successful individuals who can mentor me and help me grow even more. I believe my journey has prepared me to be the quality Spanish tutor you need.

I am a passionate educator with over eight years of teaching and tutoring experience. I have worked with many different kinds of learners during my career as a public school teacher, and I understand that every student has their own unique way of growing and of mastering skills. I have experience teaching a wide variety of literature and non-fiction texts and am very familiar with the Common Core and its emphasis on research skills. I especially enjoy teaching writing; I myself love to write and I teach students a clear process for approaching challenging essay assignments. Above all, I believe that learning should be meaningful and enjoyable and that any academic task is part of a student's personal journey of discovery.My undergraduate education at Columbia University gave me a thorough understanding of British, American, Latino, and African-American literature. My Master of Arts program in Adolescent English Education at Hunter College has enhanced my knowledge of literature while also covering the teaching skills that allow me to help students to master difficult concepts.I am a confident teacher of test preparation skills. I provide reading and writing strategies that empower students to perform at a high level on selected-response, short response, and essay questions. I emphasize the importance of analyzing test questions and passages so that students have a clear "plan of attack" on test day.My personal interests include playing guitar, songwriting, Tai Chi, and meditation.
I believe helping people is universally beneficial. It is contagious to help those who have helped you in your life and I aim to instill motivation and resilience in students who find learning tedious and overwhelming. Education is most imperative in life and it must be nurtured meticulously.

I graduated from the University of Oregon in 2012 with a degree in Spanish and in Latin American Studies. I love to teach and I love to learn!
Math is difficult. It can be scary. I am here to help.I got my BA in mathematics at Hunter College/CUNY. I studied economics in grad school at Oregon State.While in grad school I taught courses in economics and applied statistics. Since then I have tutored high school students in algebra, geometry and SAT math prep.I tutor all high school mathematics, economics and statistics. My favorite is SAT math because the questions require a detective-like approach and present an interesting challenge.I believe in strong grounding in mathematical definitions and methods tutored through example and backed up by repetition. I am always patient and encouraging.In my free time I like playing guitar and piano.
I am a Biophysics major from Hunter College who has been tutoring for 10 years. While I am Qualified to teach many subjects I am most passionate about physics and math.

I am an educator committed to equality, power, access, and vision for all students. I work as an English and ESL teacher at a small secondary school in the South Bronx, and I am the founder and director of IntegrateNYC4me. As a teacher, I work to support students in expanding their reading, writing, and critical thinking skills, and I support teachers in creating curriculum that is accessible and engaging for students across cultures, abilities, skill levels, and interests. As the director of IntegrateNYC4me, I work to transform NYC public schools into a system of integrated, equal, accessible schools by organizing students and school communities to advocate for change. I also work on the organizing council of Teachers Unite, supporting school communities to build strong communities and create alternative systems of discipline that support the socio-emotional development of students. In my free time I love to run, experiment with creative cooking and juicing, and care for my super-hero dog named Luna.
I have been, in some fashion, a music educator since I was 14. I started teaching music at the Songcatchers Inc. Program in New Rochelle as a volunteer in 2000 and have been passionate about it ever since, ultimately turning it into my career when I finished Undergrad at Eastman/ U of R in 2008. During my last semester there, as well as any break that saw me returning home to New Rochelle, NY, I continued to teach music in any capacity that I could - private lessons and schools, charter schools, teaching agencies, camps, etc. Since 2008, I have hosted more than 8 studio recitals for my students and run myself as a business, seeking to musically educate as many people as I can.I strongly believe music and frankly all mediums of art are woven into the fabric of who we are as human beings, and a valuable resource for us in achieving a truly enlightened society. Despite this, music and art are all too frequently the first curricula cast aside by public schools and even in general. This has always struck me as incredibly short sighted given that music especially, gives students of all ages a chance to hone multiple intelligences/skills at once (motor coordination, language, visual perception, auditory perception, etc.). So I guess in a sense I am trying to balance the scales with my chosen career. Additionally, in recent years I've become passionate about discussing and planning long term musical goals with high school age students. For example, I've had students apply to and achieve admission to schools like SUNY Purchase and Berklee, under my guidance and accompaniment.In short, I relish any opportunity to bring personal development and joy to anyone, especially open minds. Now, more than ever, it is so vital. So too, will I relish the opportunity to work for you, if it is given.
I am a Colorado native, and have been living in New York City for almost four years.

My BA is in International Affairs from the University of Colorado at Boulder, and I absolutely love learning (and teaching) about the world!

In my spare time I love going to concerts and spending time outdoors. I also enjoy skiing, cooking, yoga, and watching Youtube videos of adorable animals! I look forward to meeting and working with you!
I've recently completed my Bachelor's degree in English literature at Hunter College. Through the course of my studies I've not only learned to appreciate literature from different times and places, but also to respect and understand the views and philosophies of critics and peers. This has effected my personal and professional relationships in a way that nothing else could have. I've learned to take other points of view into account, as well as constantly shift my own way of looking at the world and making changes for the better. I enjoy working as a tutor because it allows me to use some of my skills to help others. However, this has not been without received benefits. I continuously learn from and am inspired by my students. I believe strongly that every young child or adult has the potential to create positive changes for his or her community, and that it sometimes takes a positive experience with learning and education to inspire him or her. I'm willing to, and am eager to, work with students in various ways in order to suit their needs most appropriately. Most importantly, I'm always excited to inspire the quest for knowledge in any one I am fortunate to cross paths with.

I believe I can teach mathematics to anyone who wants to learn it, for whatever reason. The motivation is the most important factor. I happen to love the subject, and this just means that I enjoy talking about it and communicating about it. Mathematics is about knowing what you know, and knowing what you do not know - what could be more important than that?

My passion for foreign policy has led me to travel to over 30 countries.

When it comes to teaching, I do my best to ensure that the tutee understands the material. I am patient when it comes to teaching, as every student has their own pace of study, and will alter my methods in order to meet their pace. I would then create problems that would test their knowledge on the subject before moving onto the next. The success of my student is very important to me, and I will do my best to help them achieve their best.

I am an alumna of the City University of New York where I earned a BA in Environmental Earth Science from Hunter College and a PhD in Earth and Environmental Sciences from The Graduate Center. My undergraduate research focused on geochemistry, geology, and soil chemistry. The bulk of my PhD work was centered on a numerical model of geologic processes within ancient 4 billion year old asteroids using Fortran90 in conjunction with MATLAB. I have 2 years of experience mentoring and tutoring college juniors and seniors. I have also led tours of the American Museum of Natural History that covered topics like gems and minerals, the geology of Manhattan's skyscrapers, and the history of the Solar System. Given my background, I am most effective at tutoring college to graduate level environmental science, geology, and MATLAB programming. I believe that education should be accessible to all who seek it and I endeavor to nurture curiosity about the natural world.
Biology been a passion of mine for as long as I can remember. As soon as possible, I set myself on a track to have as much biology in my life as possible. In middle school I entered as many science fairs as I could. In high school I elected to enter into the IB program in order to take both IB Biology SL and IB biology HL (in addition to the standard high school biology class). While enrolled in IB Biology, I often formed study groups and peer tutored fellow classmates on a variety of concepts. After finishing up high school I entered into the B.S program for Biology at SUNY New Paltz. Here my studies focused on the cell/molecular side of cell biology (although I did take many electives in ecology and plant biology). During my undergraduate career I worked both as a tutor for general biology and genetics, and as a professional note taker. Both of these positions helped me hone my skills as a tutor, and realize the importance of having a solid foundation of organized note taking and study skills.Upon completion of my bachelors degree, I choose to enter into a biology masters program at Hunter College that concentrated on biotechnology. This program taught me to understand the various techniques used in biological research. I learned to identify which techniques are applicable for which situations, as well as how to apply the techniques. In addition to the biotechnology courses, my coursework also focused with genetics, cell biology, molecular biology and developmental biology.After graduation from my masters program, I had the choice to enter into research. While I enjoyed being a part of research throughout my college career, I realized that my true passion lays in teaching. I have started working as a professional tutor at one of the surrounding universities, tutoring students in general biology, genetics and cell/molecular biology. I joined Varsity Tutors as a means to help more students gain the love of biology that I do.
We are all able to learn. Some many need strategies, clarification and some TLC. As a Speech-Language Pathologist for 30+ years, it has been my passion to assist my clients in achieving their goals.I am patient, funny and compassionate.
I am a graduate of Touro College where I received my Masters Degree and became certified in General and Special Education. Currently, I work as a Special Education Teacher Support Services (SETSS) teacher. In this position, I collaborate with general education teachers and related service providers to promote student development. My duties include providing progress reports and small group instruction for my students on a daily basis. I also set up motivational programs for my students to be carried out during our sessions and in their general education classrooms. By teaming up with parents and teachers, I help each one of my students stay organized and motivated to do well in school.During my small group instruction sessions, I help my students by using games and songs to study pertinent information. I am patient, organized, and have a great amount of experience working with children. I also incorporate Gardners Multiple Intelligences into my sessions to cater to the learning styles of each of my students. I believe that every student can succeed when they are provided with the right tools by a knowledgeable motivator.
I have a BA from CUNY Hunter College where my major was English and minor was Psychology. My favorite subjects have always been reading and writing. After pursing a career in the children's publishing industry I decided I wanted a more hands on approach. Now I work at a special needs high school as a paraprofessional. This job has allowed me to interact with a range of students, including those with Autism, ADD, moderate OCD, as well as students who are physically challenged. In the near future I am looking to return to school to earn my MA in Elementary Education. In the past I have also been a literacy tutor for elementary school students. I loved seeing my students' progress and enthusiasm about reading. My love of language also extends to foreign language. I studied Spanish for four years and have a future goal of learning sign language too!
I am an elementary school teacher during the day and a student too- learning really is life long. My favorite hobbies are mostly outdoor activities like hiking and climbing. I love traveling in the USA and to Europe, which is where I'm from. I love art in all its form, visual and performing arts. My favorite subjects are Math and Science. Reading always calms and there's nothing I love more than a good book.
I tutor a wide range of subjects, with a background in humanities, arts and math. I've been a language teacher for the past seven years, focusing on "twice exceptional" students, those who are highly gifted and have challenges like autism, executive functioning, and learning disabilities. With master's degrees in both Mathematical Physics and Special Education, I love teaching both advanced subject material and the fundamentals of literacy, organizing, and the whole human that go along with all learning. I often say I work best with folks who "love learning but hate school."I am very flexible with teaching, ethics and focus on student needs, styles and interests. In languages especially, I can bring students to great leaps in proficiency through low-stress, research-backed methods like immersion in "comprehensible input" and learning through stories and cultural material with lots of context.
