I have spent the last five years teaching in middle and high schools in New York and Connecticut. In that time, I have experienced the incredible success that all students can have with individualized and properly scaffolded instruction first-hand. My teaching experiences have been varied across all departments. I have partnered with several different co-teachers in an ICT environment in the English and Math departments. I have also taught pull-out interventions for literacy, along with writing and conducting testing for Individualized Education Plans. I have received comprehensive training to prepare our students for standardized state assessments, as well as integrating our curriculum with Common Core Learning Standards. In addition, I initiated several after-school clubs to fill in the gaps in elective offerings, such as theater and culinary arts. I thrive in an environment where I can pull from current events and popular culture to create a dynamic classroom environment. This also involves equipping them with the right strategies to access complicated texts, or helping them internalize the steps to break down a complex math problem. Above all, I have aspired to create an accepting and positive environment, so all students feel like they have a stake in their own success.

Tutor for Latin American Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese at all levels. Ivy League Master's degree with deep cultural expertise in Latin America and 20 years of experience using Spanish and Portuguese across educational, professional, and social environments.

As. a former teacher and current actuary, I know what it takes to both make my students successful, but also what it takes to excel in the business world. I will develop a custom learning schedule, curriculum, and methodology for any student, so they can pass their AP Statistics course, probability courses, and actuarial exams.

I've always liked to travel and to know people from different countries. I've always felt that we are all alike, in spite of our "differences". I have friends from around the world, from travelling and from my jobs in international departments of publishing companies, which is where I have worked for over 20 years. I lived in England for 10 years and loved living in Europe, where I was able to reach so many different countries. I majored in French in college, starting to learn it at the age of 10 years. I became a big fan of French history, literature, films, food and people. I've taught ESL for about 6 years, to people from different countries and I love to help my students learn to use a tool that will help them in their work, studies, and lives and will make a big difference to their happiness!I love cooking, growing plants and vegetables, listening to vintage rock music, cooking new recipes, seeing films, going to concerts of classical music and rock music, and singing.

Hey there! My name is Lauren and I am a former D1 heptathlete at Georgetown University! I graduated with a B.A. in Psychology with a Pre-Med concentration and I am currently on my way to law school! In my spare time you will catch me working out, eating (because I love food) or traveling! I love tutoring and I cant wait to meet y'all!

Hello! My name is Ritika and I recently graduated with dual degrees in computer science and biology. I am currently a first-year medical student passionate about helping students excel in preparing for college biology, chemistry, and MCAT preparation.

I am a recent mechanical engineering graduate student and I have a very strong background in mathematics. I received a perfect score on the math sections of the PSAT, SAT, ACT and GRE so I can certainly help you reach your goal on any standardized test of mathematics. In addition, I taught English as a second language to over one hundred students at a college in Taizhou, China prior to entering my graduate program in engineering, which helped me hone my teaching style in both ESL and Mathematics. I am a patient tutor who focuses on identifying the root causes of misunderstandings and correcting them so that the student can succeed in applying the learned concepts on new problems without my guidance.

I believe language is what makes us uniquely human. It equips us to convey thoughts and concepts in myriad ways. I'll work hard to help you understand language essentials--phonology, morphology, syntax (aka grammar)--and improve your writing. Whether you're interested in crafting a creative piece, honing a term paper for a class, or perfecting your college application essay, my comprehensive approach will empower you for success!

My name is Kara and I received my M.S. in Physiology and Biophysics from Georgetown University and my M.D. from New York Medical College. I enjoy helping students out with most science topics, from high school Biology courses to preparing for the ACT, SAT, or MCAT. This includes Biology, Psychology, Anatomy, Physiology, and more. I work with students to develop effective study methods that work best for the ways in which they learn. The key is to not only learn information, but to retain it. I also enjoy working with young students who may need help with reading, writing, science, and pre-algebra. My tutoring sessions will give students the practice and understanding needed to excel in their coursework. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy playing tennis, cooking, catching up on new TV shows, and spending time with my family!

I graduated from Georgetown University this past May with a B.S. in Global Health and a minor in Disability Studies, and I look forward to beginning medical school in Boston this fall. I have experience tutoring individuals and small groups across a broad range of subjects (math, science, writing, grammar) and have served as a teaching assistant in both mathematics and biology.To me, meaningful and productive learning begins with connection; I enjoy getting to know my students and seek to foster a comfortable, low-stress environment in which we can work together to capitalize upon strengths and interests, identify challenges, and explore a variety of strategies to maximize learning outcomes and performance. I get a thrill out of exploring new intellectual challenges, and my favorite aspect of the teaching process is finding a way to share that passion with each individual student. Outside of the classroom, I enjoy running, reading (especially sci-fi and fantasy), volunteering, and caring for pets.

As a professor at Boston University, my favorite part of the job has been working with students one-on-one. I love taking the time to go deeply into a subject with a learner and help him or her discover what makes it fascinating. Working on writing is another aspect of educating that I love; to draw out ideas, to make them clearer and more forceful, is very rewarding to me, and I love reading drafts and seeing the development of an argument or an original insight.I began working with students after I completed my BA at Georgetown University and went into a Master's program at NYU in Religious Studies. As a teaching assistant, I had the opportunity to talk to students about their papers and exams, and I discovered that I had a knack for getting people to relax and get into a subject, possibly because I love to tell corny jokes. While earning my PhD at Columbia University, I continued teaching, but I missed the more intimate setting of the small groups and office hours of NYU. I am excited to get back to working one-on-one as a tutor who helps with college essays, English grammar and composition, and edits essays of all kinds.

I graduated from the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill with a dual BA in Economics and Psychology, with a Math minor. I also have a MBA from UNC's Kenan-Flagler Business School with a Finance Concentration. I recently completed my MS in Finance from Georgetown. I have worked for the Federal Reserve Board of Governors, investment banks, and a private equity firm; so, I have experience in the applied application of academic theory.I am adept at teaching economics and finance, as well as topics in math, statistics, business administration, and standardized testing including several of the Series Exams.My teaching philosophy begins with understanding a student's goals and helping them achieve success both inside and outside of the classroom. I can use elements of a student's background to relate complex subjects in a way that is more familiar with the student.Outside of work, I am an avid sports fan, lover of books and movies, meeting new people and hanging out with friends. I enjoy traveling, having been to 19 countries on 4 continents and 33 US states.I look forward to helping your achieve your goals.
