I am currently a fourth grade teacher in Harlem. I live in Astoria, Queens. I have been teaching for five years and I am very passionate about teaching. I have taught math, reading, writing, science and social studies at the elementary level and am certified to teach special education as well.

Having taught in a variety of settings and worked with diverse populations such as incarcerated inmates, international adults and ivy league undergraduates, I have come to understand first hand that every student learns in his or her own unique way. My approach as a tutor is to listen carefully to the student and to try and understand where he or she is coming from. It is through this student-centered learning that I encourage the student to express themselves and to find meaning in the work. My background in English writing and education, and first hand as an undergraduate professor of Critical Writing, allows me to push my students to work hard on the subject at hand. I believe that all students are capable of writing well and performing well on the SAT, and my job is to coach and steer the student in the right direction.

Hello, I'm Bradley! I'm a recent Fairfield University graduate with a BA in History and minors in French and Philosophy. My teaching philosophy starts with understanding the student first then building a style around them. I've tutored French at university, taught French in France, and coached tennis to kids ages 8-15. I remain committed to helping students overcome their fears, making them more confident as people.

Teaching, travel, and culture have become a great love and ambition of mine after completing my TEFL teacher training in Paris, France in October 2011. Since, then I have taught private students and at schools both in New York City and in France, focusing on general English, ESL, and various standardized tests (TOEFL, IELTS, SAT/ACT),In addition to my teacher training, I am a writer, actor and performer, possessing excellent skills in communication and being in front of small or large groups of people. I have a burgeoning writing career, writing for various websites and working on a blog and novel.I achieve amazing satisfaction from inspiring others to learn and communicate. Overall, I enjoy the creative elements of teaching and using the student's interests to drive a passion and desire to learn. Amidst my minimal travels across the globe thus far, I have learned that education is the key to understanding and appreciating each other.

As a junior at Fairfield University studying mathematics, my passion for math runs very deep. I spend my free time as a Fairfield University Cheerleader and enjoy hot summer days. My goal as a tutor is to enable my clients to feel that there is nothing they can not do.

Adaptable educator versed in collaborating with parents and students to best meet each individual's unique needs. Attentive to the physical, emotional and social needs of each student.

I recently obtained my master's degree in American Studies and Education. These degrees have helped me to think critically about history and current events. I am excited to help students connect their classroom information with the world that they live in now. I love helping students learn how to express themselves through writing and speech, and I am most passionate about guiding students to engage with their classes in ways that make them successful.

When it comes to learning, there is no attribute more valued than passion. My teaching philosophy revolves around the core idea that the student should be the one to find the answers they need. Rote memorization, reciting, and hurling out facts without context will always place second to a true desire to learn when it comes to succeeding in academics. Not only should the tutor and the student aim to understand a subject, they should also try to develop a love for it.

During my years as a student, I had a hard time remembering concepts and terms. I had a near perfect attendance record, but still struggled with performing well on tests. I thought to myself, why was this happening?Students have so much pressure to perform well on standardized tests. We cram with flashcards, pull all nighters, and even sacrifice our social time to prove to the world that we retained what we learned that year.But are we *actually* learning? My goal as a tutor is to make your studies enjoyable. I love to use visual and real world examples to help you grasp difficult concepts. At the end of our sessions, it is my mission to make sure that you can not only solve sample problems, but actually understand your coursework on a deeper level!

I am a dedicated, student-focused teaching professional with a passion for motivating students to learn and achieve goals. I specialize in K College Level Math, HESI Math/English, TEAS Math/English, GED Math, Math SAT/Regents Prep, as well as Nursing Medication Dosage Math.
