Award-Winning Tutors from Fordham University

In 2021, I received my Bachelor of Science in Integrative Neuroscience from Fordham University with minors in Philosophy and Chemistry, and I am currently a medical student. In college, I tutored and TAed in General Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, and Biochemistry. In addition to writing, basic math, and various chemistry courses, I am also available for ACT and MCAT tutoring. Preparing for standardized tests can be very overwhelming but it does not have to be. With my years of tutoring work and experience taking these exams myself, I can guide students through the preparation process so they enter the testing facility with confidence and leave with a score to be proud of.

I received my Bachelor of Science degree majoring in Maths, Statistics & Physics and MBA in Finance. I worked in the Financial Services Industry in Asia. Having retired and traveled extensively, now settled in WA, USA, I enjoy teaching Maths to children & adults.

Licensed CPA with years of tutoring college level students in accounting and finance topics, as well as multiple years of public accounting and corporate finance experience.

My name is Ava. I am from Phoenix, Arizona but currently live in New York as a student at Fordham University. I am a Philosophy major with a passion for learning and creativity. I have experience tutoring in pre-algebra, Latin, and SAT prep. I have taken the SAT three times, the PSAT three times, and three SAT subject tests. I am extremely familiar with the layout of the SAT and how to coach students in studying and test-taking techniques. I believe in setting a strong foundation of knowledge for students to build off of in every subject they approach. I look forward to helping students become the best they can be through engaging lessons made specifically for each individual.

I'm 18 years old and I am a sophomore at Fordham University. I promise I won't disappoint!

Hello! I am a college student at Fordham University. I am a History major with minors in Medieval Studies and Anthropology. I can help out with History, English, Writing, and Reading skills.I have been a tutor for almost one year and hold a position as a copyeditor for a research journal at my university. My strength is helping students improve writing skills through close reading, essay-editing, and revision.

I am a private tutor with over ten years of experience on the SATs, College Essays & Applications, English, History, Math, TOEFL, and the like. I have taught for over seven years, including at such prestigious institutions as Choate Rosemary Hall, and graduated Phi Beta Kappa and Magna Cum Laude from Fordham University with a triple major in English, Philosophy, and American studies. I have two masters' degrees, and am a certified teacher in the State of Massachusetts.As a tutor, I am both flexible and patient. No two students are the same, and therefore there is no "right approach" to tutoring. Rather, I try to meet students where they are, and find ways to help them accomplish whatever goals they have in mind, be it an SAT score, a better writing style, or a new approach to studying history. I have helped hundreds of students with SAT preparation, and have worked both around the United States and internationally as a private tutor and college counselor, so I am familiar with many different types of students, from a wide variety of backgrounds, and the various difficulties they face. In short, I work with students in many ways, depending on what the student him or herself needs.

I'm a Computer Science student at Fordham University in the accelerated M.S. Data Science program, and I've worked as a Teaching Assistant for a data management course. I led weekly office hours helping students with Python, Jupyter, NumPy, pandas, and Matplotlib. My approach is to find exactly where a student gets stuck, break the idea into small steps, and have them explain it back until it clicks. Nothing beats seeing a confusing concept become something a student can use with confidence.

Hello, My name is Greg Mills and I want to help you achieve academic excellence. I have a wide background of study to draw from as well as experience tutoring students in a variety of subjects.I am a graduate of Fordham University, class of 2017. I majored in International Political Economy with minors in Economics and Spanish. Currently I am in the M.A. program at the Seton Hall University's School of International Relations and Diplomacy.I specialize in political science and economics, but I have a wide academic background including standardized testing, such as the PSAT, SAT, ACT, and GRE. I have experience tutoring students from Pre-K to 9th grade, with an emphasis on reading and mathematics.GRE Scores:GRE 329Quantitative Reasoning 162Verbal 167

I am passionate about helping students because without a thorough education, I would not be the person I am today. Education was at first something handed down to me from figures of authority. The more I studied and applied myself, however, a feeling ownership and agency began to develop. Education was less something handed down to me, and more something which I owed that I could engage in at any time. I want to help students discover how fun and how immeasurably valuable education can be, not because an authority figure told them so, but because they know this in their own heart. So far I've tried to impart this idea to students at CitySquash in the Bronx, and Harlem RBI in Manhattan, two programs which blend tutoring instruction and homework help with sports. Tutoring sessions were one-on-one for one to two hours per week.I received my Bachelors in America Studies and in Communication and Media Studies from Fordham College Rose Hill in the Bronx. I'm saving money so that I can eventually enter a masters program in either Journalism, or History. I tutor the subjects of History (European, American, World - high school and AP level) and Language Arts (reading comp, writing, language and literature - high school and AP level). My favorite subject to tutor is American history. Bob Marley once said "A people without the knowledge of their past history and culture is like a tree without roots." As Americans (no matter when we arrived to this land) we need to understand thoroughly our history, so that we do not repeat the mistakes of the past. We must see historical trends so that we can anticipate the future. We must nurture and grow our tree, and to do so we must know our roots.My teaching philosophy revolves around the student learning to lead by himself or herself. Tutoring is temporary, and a student must learn to learn. Memorizing information is great for passing tests, but mastering methods of learning will help a student to succeed throughout his or her entire lifetime. So I try to show students how to learn more than just what to learn.Outside of academia, I love music - reggae music, jazz music, hip hop music, electronic music, all music. I also play the drums, and attend concerts whenever I have the time and money. I enjoy practicing yoga, taking hikes and exploring New York's Hudson Valley. I devour books and one day want to write my own.

I am a graduate of Fordham University, where I received a B.A. in History with a minor in mathematics. I have spent 8 years as an educator; seeing knowledge and wisdom imparted on the minds of others, as well as witnessing progression in analytical and critical thinking skills is a passion of mine. As an undergraduate, I taught health classes at underfunded high schools in the Bronx, NY. Upon graduating, I went on to teach high school math for 5 years in both Philadelphia and Chicago, simultaneously receiving an M.Ed. in secondary education, mathematics. Every year, my students surpassed school-wide growth goals on standardized math tests, including the ACT and PSAT.I have now returned to my home-state of North Carolina to pursue a Ph.D. in History. While I work on this endeavor, I am available to tutor Math, History, and English. When I'm not tutoring, I enjoy tearing through books, stumbling through being an adult learner of piano, hiking, practicing yoga, and being in good company.

As a student myself who has used tutoring resources many times, I know the need for good teachers to help students succeed, and I am passionate about giving back these lessons the same way I was able to receive them! I have taught students of many different ages from as little as 6 years old to as old as 16/17. I love teaching all ages in subjects such as reading and math, especially when it comes to the SATs. My philosophy is to never assume. I approach every student as a blank slate where I do not know about their prior knowledge, and as such, I make it a point to explain everything I teach thoroughly to ensure they have a strong foundation. With patience and understanding, I grow with my students to assist them in getting the most possible out of their education with me.

Hello! I'm a prospective graduate philosopher with years of experience in tutoring and editing resulting in student improvement across letter grade margins, as well as proficiencies in research, teaching, and analytical reasoning/communication. My goal is to inspire students to improve through conversation, experimenting with methods, and making learning more fun.

I am a graduate from Fordham University with a BS in Biology and recently graduated with my MPH in Global Health and Epidemiology from NYU. I am passionate about the intersection between biology, statistics, infectious disease and health equity,

I studied for a Bachelor of Arts in Classics at McGill University, with a minor concentration in History. I then received a Master of Arts in Latin Language & Literature from Fordham University and a Master of Philosophy in Classics & Ancient History from the University of Bristol. I have over 10 years of teaching experience, having taught at the university level and, most recently, at the middle school level. I have taught all levels of Latin, classical literature in translation, and test prep for middle schoolers. I have tutored students in Latin from ages 10 to 20, and can also tutor students in test prep and English. My style of tutoring is responsive to students' needs, and I believe in the value of practice and repetition. In my spare time, I enjoy curling and playing guitar.

Hello! I am Zach! I am excited to help you reach your educational and professional goals, whether that be in law school admissions or just acing the next test. Together, we will focus on building understanding and reasoning skills within your requested subject so that you develop the tools to tackle the big tests, essays, or just everyday participation in class on your own.

Hi! I am entering my 7th year of teaching. I am a certified kindergarten through fifth grade teacher. I currently teach 4th grade and have also taught 1st and 2nd grades. In February of 2019, I was awarded Georgia Charter School Teacher of the Year. I am truly passionate about teaching and look forward to working with new students.

I hold a Ph.D in English from Fordham University in NYC and a valid secondary school teaching license. Plus, I have over 30 years of experience teaching and tutoring students: 26 at the university level and four at the high school level. My expertise spans a wide range of subjects, English Language (grammar, syntax, and all the 'fun" stuff) and composition (the act of written expression), reading for comprehension, literary analysis, Honors and AP English, Mythology, Debate and public speaking, creative writing (I'm even a published author), college application essays, university level research essays, and test preparation coaching for High School, University, and Grad level testing. I am passionate about creating a learning environment where I empower students to find their own unique voices and express their ideas with confidence. I specialize in breaking down assignments into easy-to-follow steps, and I utilize a variety of diverse teaching methods to tailor a tutoring session to what an individual student needs. I'm especially good with neurodivergent or non-traditional students--not only am I one myself, but both my kids are and I've adjusted my practices many times to better fit what a student needs in order to be successful in an academic setting that isn't one-size-fits-all. My goal is to inspire students to realize their own potential and to transform writing from a confusing or intimidating task into an enjoyable and rewarding experience. In all my years as a teacher, the one thing I missed most was the chance to talk one-on-one with a student and really listen to what they needed--tutoring lets me do just that! I'm excited to learn more about you and help you achieve success

I'm an educator with a passion for learning and giving back. I break skills into clear, manageable steps and use patience, encouragement, and strategies that build confidence fast. Wether you're preparing for exams, catching up on fundamentals, or aiming higher, I personalize each session so students leave understanding-- and believing they can do it.

I have 5 years of experience in tutoring and mentoring students between the ages of 13-18 and have volunteered for after school programs for elementary age students as well as many other volunteer experiences with the youth of NYC. I have a true passion for learning new things personally and have loved to have been able to incorporate that into my career and volunteer experience over the past 10 years in NYC.In my career experience I have become a highly compassionate, resourceful and solutions-oriented expert in training and developing organization’s employees via one-on-one and group coaching and mentoring, developing both written and verbal job development tools and building positive, long-lasting relationships with employees and clients. I have further experience in human relations, onboarding and job development, team building and training and implementing motivational training techniques.I would love the opportunity to work with you and help you to discover a true love for learning and understanding. If hired, you will gain a diligent, goal-oriented professional with the agility, dedication, and focus required to successfully fill this role.

Diana was born and raised in Los Angeles, California. She attended Cerritos Community College and majored in Economics and accounting while working at Bank of America and a retail shoe store to get her through school. During that time she also earned her Medical Billing certification and was highly involved in the community through Project HOPE, Scholar Honor Society, and as Vice-President of the Business Club. After three years she transferred to the University of California, Santa Barbara and became involved in education through The Family Literacy Program where she worked with undocumented elementary students. Her interest in Chicano Studies and education grew thanks to a course on educational barriers and the teachings of Brazilian educator Paulo Freire. Working as an Elementary Teaching Assistant, one special student made her want to become an educator focusing on students with learning disabilities. She switched her major to Psychology to better understand human growth and development. That year she became a research assistant to her professor and worked with at-risk adolescents in a high school in Santa Barbara County. Diana learned about Teach for America that same year and felt that TFA's values and mission were aligned with her own, which brought her to New York City classrooms. She has a newly obtained Masters Degree from Fordham University in Teaching Exceptional Adolescents grades 7-12. She's taught 6th, 7th, and 8th grade math at a middle school in Brooklyn. She has taught Algebra for the past three years and is currently working at a high school in Manhattan. On her spare time she enjoys tutoring any struggling learner in Mathematics. When shes not in the classroom or tutoring, Diana enjoys reading a good book, Sunday brunch, authentic Mexican food, and meeting new friends.

I am an academically accomplished tutor who has more than six years of experience tutoring high school math and science. After spending the past two years studying medicine I realized that I am more passionate about education.In the past, I have tutored high school math up to calculus along with biology and chemistry up to the introductory college courses. I took the general SAT, SAT Math level II, SAT French, the GRE and the MCAT. I have also become proficient in human anatomy, microbiology and biochemistry.I believe that all students deserve excellent tutors who cater to their learning styles and challenge and encourage them to become proficient independent learners. Tutoring is a combination of teaching and mentoring and I strive to offer students the knowledge and skills they need to become academically confident and competitive.In my free time, I enjoy practicing yoga and dance. I am also into boxing. My favorite TV show right now is Game of Thrones! I love my family and friends and I enjoy spending time with them. I have the best siblings ever!

I am excited to use my wide range of knowledge to help students succeed in whatever academic endeavor they pursue. I have a great passion for learning, and relish the opportunity to use my enthusiasm to help students learn and grow as individuals. Tutoring is ideally suited to my strengths as a teacher. I thrive in an environment where I can build a connection with a student based on trust and mutual respect. I work hard to learn about my students' unique learning styles and personalities, and adapt my teaching methods to most effectively meet each student's individual needs. I look forward to the opportunity to make a positive impact on students' lives. I have previously worked as a reading tutor at a community center in East Harlem, New York. and also taught in the US Peace Corps.

I'm a graduate from Fordham University with a B.S. in Computer Science and a B.A. in music, with a minor in Mathematics. I have an extensive background in computer science and mathematics as well as the humanities in general. My teaching interests are wide-ranging, including computer science, reading, writing, and math. I'm also a great test-taker, and have been helpful in the past to students in preparing for a panoply of tests, from high school level to higher ed.Having grown up having to mostly teach myself from textbooks rather than learning from teachers, as well as tutoring students who were dealing with ADHD and other learning disabilities, I had to work hard to develop learning and organizational strategies to keep myself on task. As a result, I'm extremely comfortable working with students with complex needs to find innovative learning tools for success. There's no right way to learn, and there are as many strategies as there are people in the world. In this way, I like to encourage students to use whatever methods grant them success.I love to read, play music (alto sax and piano), run, and dabble in electronic music production. Let's get in touch!

I fully believe that every student should have equal access to quality and engaging education. I believe that access to a tutor allows a student that extra assistance to help them stick out in the classroom and excel over any academic challenge. After completing my Bachelors of Science in Biology and Psychology with a minor in Biomedical Engineering at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, PA, I moved to New York City to begin my role as a teacher. For the past year, I have worked as a high school chemistry teacher at an NYC Department of Education public school in the Bronx. I love teaching and helping students find their "ah-ha" moments in both science and math. I know that these are challenging subjects but I know that every student has the ability to be successful given the right practice and support. I am currently pursuing my Masters of Education from Fordham University. Outside of school, I love to stay active outdoors, sing, and see Broadway shows.

I believe that everyone has the ability to excel. I help my students to do this by working with them to understand the subject deeply. I try to make it seem easy, because nobody likes learning when it's hard.

I have enjoyed helping MSWs to successfully pass their licensing exams. My goal is to help you pass your LCSW exam so you can further your career. I look forward to hearing from you.

I have been teaching young students for two years, while in grad school at Columbia University, studying early childhood education. Before starting grad school, I went to Fordham University where I mentored and worked with young students in many different settings. Overall, I have been working with children for many years and look forward to tutoring, getting to know and learning from my future students!

I am a graduate student at New Jersey Institute of Technology studying Biology. I went to Fordham University for undergrad. There, I majored in Biological Sciences. I'm excited to help students with a range of science topics.

I'm a lawyer, writer, editor, and self-professed grammar nerd. I've always had a passion for writing. I was the kid in high school who my English teacher appointed to check other students' assignments (true story!). I received a degree in English from the University of Michigan and a law degree from Fordham University School of Law. In law school, I served as an associate editor for a law journal and wrote briefs for the moot court board. During my 27 year legal career, I've written hundreds of legal briefs, half a dozen legal articles, and even a traditionally-published mystery novel. I also maintain a blog on my website. I enjoy sharing my passions with others, so for several years I taught as an adjunct professor at a local law school and have worked extensively with my own two children (ages 20 and 17) throughout their educations. I take a friendly, laid-back approach to teaching, because students won't learn if they're not comfortable and engaged. Whether your needs are simple - such as general help with writing answers to essay questions or gaining a better understanding of punctuation - or more complex - such as writing a research paper or understanding how to use style guides, I can help. Plus, I've earned an editing certificate from the Poynter Institute and have edited professionally for a number of years. I can assist with all your editing needs. Finally, if you need help with legal research or legal writing, I'm your woman. I've been doing both for almost thirty years. Let me know how I can help you!

I am a current last year medical student, about to become a doctor. I have a bachelor's degree in biology with double minors in psychology and English from Fordham University, where I graduated summa cum laude. As a liberal arts school, Fordham required I take a wide variety of college classes to graduate, so I have a broad range of experience with college classes. I have also formerly taught kindergarten through 5th grade students as a substitute teacher. Finally, throughout college I was a tutor online for other students at my college in classes I had already completed.

I graduated from Fordham University with a BA in International Political Economy and Spanish Language and Literature as well as a Business Minor. I have 10+ years of experience working with students as a teacher, tutor, and mentor. I returned to the US this past summer after working as an ESL Teaching Assistant for the last 3 years in Madrid, Spain. During my time in Spain, I worked on my own mastery of the Spanish language while teaching students ranging from preschool age to adults. I taught English in primary and secondary schools and also provided one to one in-home tutoring. I love teaching language because it gives the leaner many opportunities to connect with people all over the world on a different level. I feel that the discipline and dedication put forth to learn a new language shows a great deal of respect for the native speakers and their culture. I strive to make each session with my students fun, educational, and tailored to their specific goals. I like to emphasize each student's personal growth. It doesn't matter if the student is a beginner; the most important part is seeing self- improvement. In my free time I enjoy traveling, trivia games, karaoke and staying fit.

I am a current fourth year medical student at Albert Einstein College of Medicine. I graduated Summa Cum Laude from Fordham University with a Bachelors of Science and double majored in Biology and History. I was born and raised in Queens and now I currently reside in Manhattan. My tutoring style is very much student-centric. I work with students to create their own personalized notes from the textbook in order to focus upon what is truly important. Then, I work with students to help them understand the central concepts. Once students understand the central concepts, the details easily follow. I also have my students work through as many problems as they can on their own. When a student has struggled through a problem and succeeds by themselves, they learn more than they possibly could through an explanation. I then work with my students on the problems they could not accomplish to show them how to best tackle it in the future. My tutoring strategy is to not only teach the subject material, but to also teach the student how to study effectively by themselves.

My name is Alan; my educational background includes a Masters degree in Financial Engineering from Polytechnic University in Brooklyn, New York and a Ph.D. in Economics from Fordham University in Bronx, New York. I also hold the FRM (Financial Risk Manager) certification offered by the Global Association of Risk Professionals. My primary teaching areas are statistics, economics (micro, macro, international trade, international finance) and finance (corporate finance, investments, financial markets, risk management, derivative securities.)

Hello! I have extensive experience tutoring students in SAT/ACT prep, AP test prep, writing and reading comprehension, and math. As a tutor, I make it my priority to focus on each specific problem while also making sure that the student understands the broader concepts as a whole. In high school I tutored my sports teammates as well as younger students who needed assistance editing and workshopping essays. I am currently enrolled as an applied accounting and finance major at the Fordham Gabelli School of Business where I'm taking business statistics and calculus classes alongside writing and economics classes. In my free time, I watch tons of basketball and football and love action movies.

I'm a 21-year-old Political Science/International Political Economy double major with a Communications & Culture minor at Fordham University. I'm a lifelong learner eager to share the spark of knowledge with everyone.
