I am currently a freshman at Stony Brook University studying Electrical Engineering and Physics. I began tutoring privately in my junior year of high school and continued in my senior year, while also joining a tutoring center called Best-Score Learning that promoted group-tutoring. I find joy in tutoring subjects such as Mathematics and Physics, as I am able help students go through the problems and see the bigger picture. Being a Math and Physics geek myself, I feel content when a student is able to see through the obstacles that come up when solving a math or physics problem, and appreciate the beauty of the subjects. Being an immigrant myself and knowing the value of education, I find it important to help students to see the value and appreciate the opportunity in becoming an accomplished person. In my free time, I love listening to music and analyzing them, watching and playing Soccer, reading books and learning new concepts and ideas, and hanging out with my friends.

Long ago in the land of Stony Brook, one man's quest to find out what makes a good story began. For 8 semesters he studied why the pen is mightier than the sword. Between classes and trying to unwind from the day's deep discussions of literature, video games provided a sweet escape from the mentally taxing work and a reminder that people can still have fun writing. James has been playing games since he was three. Sometimes the two would even blend and like a rouge pick-pocketing a noble, breath of the wild was completed while complaining about The Scarlet letter. For social gatherings, trading card games and Dungeons and Dragons were the best option. School gave him the knowledge of analytic writing to argue any point, D&D allowed him to have fun writing about fantasy and science fiction. The love of fantasy comes from a mentor, a step father who hoards comics and books. The classics were covered at school and Iron Man was taken care of at home. Before his time at the Brook, he had won an award for writing in high school which, kick started his studies, and bought a few new cards too. Writing about games is a passion that has guided many a paper and hopefully, will have his name go down in history. A passion for teaching will allow him to share not only his love and content knowledge on various topics, but convey the power of words to help make the world a better place.

I recently graduated Cum Laude from Stony Brook University with a degree in Applied Mathematics and Statistics. My work at Stony Brook primarily focused on statistics and data analysis. During my time at Stony Brook I worked as an undergraduate teaching assistant; it was during that work that I discovered that I not only had a passion, but a skill in helping others understand mathematics. I believe that math is a beautiful tool in everyday life, and I seek to help others understand why math is both important and useful in their lives. Many traditional mathematics courses focus on rigor, theory, and proofs, which does not help the student understand how they can apply those concepts to everyday life. I like to work with students to help them understand how the concepts they learn in the classroom can be applied to real world situations. The age-old question for a frustrated mathematics student is, "When am I ever going to use this in real life?" I seek to help people answer that question, and understand mathematical concepts wholly and intuitively; which I believe is the best way to foster a lifelong love of the numbers that make our world work.

When I'm tutoring, my goal is not simply to help a student perform for a test or even whole course. That's only goal one.I aim for a tutoring environment which generates discussion, and proposes solutions, in which students think critically about the content at hand, ask their own questions, and exercise ways to find their own answers. Learning in this manner allows students to better face future challenges, and think critically about topics in and out of academia.I look forward to working with you and helping you better yourself, whether that be in a class or for a test, for now and in the future.

Hi! I'm currently a sophomore at Stony Brook University and a member of the 8-year Scholars for Medicine Program there. I recently graduated from Stuyvesant High School in downtown Manhattan and absolutely love city life. I've had many experiences teaching kids of all ages here and abroad. I tutor subjects in math, science, and english/writing. I also tutor for the ACT(35) and SAT (2160) standardized tests. I love teaching and meeting new people so I would be glad to offer my service to you. Thank you!

Education has always been very important to me. Many subjects can be very difficult to learn and learning how to deal with the stress of that is something that I can understand. I believe in helping people not only in understanding the subject, but also learning study techniques, planning, organization and how to deal with stress. When you do not know a subject matter it becomes boring and you lose interest. When you know the subject matter it becomes interesting and fun. No one likes to watch Jeopardy when you do not know the answers. When you know the answers, you feel confident and are having fun.

I am a recent graduate from Stony Brook University where I earned a Master's of Science and a Bachelor's of Engineering in Mechanical Engineering. I am currently looking for work as an Automotive, Aerospace, or Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning Engineer. On the side, I like to pursue my passion for teaching by tutoring in Math and Science. I feel that these subjects, although daunting to some, can be firmly grasped by everyone if given the right opportunity to learn. For those who are struggling, it is my sincere desire to help you see Math and Science as fun and approachable subjects rather than challenging and overwhelming subjects. In so doing, I hope not only to improve the students results in the classroom, but to help them see how these subjects apply to the world around them and improve their understanding to a level that can be applied in every aspect of their life going forward. My outside interests include sports and music.

As a recently certified Project Management Professional, I'm here to help you manage your study plan and build your confidence in passing the PMP Certification with flying colors. Let's aim for "Above Target" scores in People, Process, and Business Environment domains together!

Throughout my academic career, I always found ways to make hours of studying enjoyable by coming up with silly mnemonics, jokes, and puns about the material I would have to otherwise dryly trudge through. Whether it was my preparation for AP exam week, pre-med course midterms, MCAT, medical school finals, or my USMLE Step exams, I always found that the best way to manage stress, avoid burnout, and memorize material effectively was to make it fun rather than a chore. By combining my hobby of performing improvisational comedy with my passion for teaching, I've developed an engaging style of tutoring over my 3 years of experience as a college and med school TA. After graduation from St. George's University School of Medicine, I'll be pursuing an MBA in healthcare management and applying for residency in psychiatry, a field I'm deeply passionate about.

I have my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Villanova University, a MBA from Rutgers University, and a Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Stony Brook University where my GPA was 3.6. I passed the NCLEX on my first attempt with 85 questions. I believe that making sure one's fundamentals are sound before proceeding onto more difficult subject matters. I look forward to helping others pass the NCLEX.

My teaching experiences have been defined by a commitment to engaging students in critical thinking, problem solving and a lasting desire for learning. Teaching is the ability to demonstrate a new skill to another person. Both the teacher and students grow in knowledge. Teaching can be joyful, enriching and challenging. Teaching gives me the opportunity to convey important information that can be used regularly or applied in the environment. As a teacher, I hope to build a strong foundation of learning in my students. My primary goal as an educator is to promote a learning environment for students. My role in the classroom or laboratory is to engage, assess and encourage students to participate actively in class, to listen and think critically, to challenge them to ask questions and to motivate growth in them. I focus on creating a classroom environment where all students are included, addressing different learning styles and ensuring all students have accessibility to become successful. I have gained some professional training in science communication class and scientist teaching science course to assist me in effective teaching of students. In addition, my approach to teaching in classroom is through active involvement of all the students. When I was an adjunct assistant professor at the city university in a general chemistry laboratory course, I observed that the students worked effectively when the experiments were being demonstrated before they began the experiments. During the demonstrations, I tried to make sure that each step was properly understood. Engaging the students during class by asking questions gave them the opportunity to participate actively. Students that are active learners learn more when compared to passive students, it is important to include every student in the classroom and laboratory. Also, I took some time to learn all the student's names to encourage full class participation, treating each student as an individual. I want the students to look forward to the next class with high expectations and passion to learn new material. I believe in visual representation, creating a model to make it easier for the student to learn. For example, when discussing Lewis structure (e.g. CH4), I created an actual ball-and-stick model of the methane molecule, so that the students can visually see that the shape of the molecule is tetrahedral and the C-H bonding. Also, encouraging group work in a class or laboratory setting improves leadership skills in the students. Students worked in groups for class assignments, providing them the opportunity to build on leadership and team working skills. I am dedicated to making sure my students are successful in the classroom, and they feel enthusiasm for the subject. In teaching, I hope to instill the passion of learning in my students by sharing my passion in the subject. In the future, I plan to build upon my teaching strategies and skills by attending workshops and taking advantage of chances to teach when possible. It is important to engage the students. Also, incorporating the Bloom's Taxonomy for writing objective, which will show how learning is demonstrated through knowledge, understanding, application, evaluation and synthesis. In addition to my teaching responsibilities, I have conducted workshops, seminars and brown-bag lunches to support development for students and my colleagues' covering topics in research and teaching areas. I can teach general, inorganic, analytical chemistry, environmental science and organic chemistry with their labs at both the undergraduate and graduate level. If an online course is suggested, I can create an online course for these courses. In 2015, majority of students are gearing towards online teaching (STS Class 2, page 7). As an online instructor, many students and professional are using online study. I plan to use online digital learning objectives to help the students understand, apply, analyze and evaluate the course material.

I received my Bachelor of Engineering in Mechanical Engineering degree at SUNY Stony Brook. I received my Master of Arts in Teaching with a Concentration in Mathematics degree at Quinnipiac University. I taught high school mathematics for 9 years. I tutor Pre-Algebra, Algebra I, Geometry, and Algebra II. My favorite subject to teach is Geometry, because once I was afraid of Geometry, and now I love it. I want to show my students how not to be afraid! My tutoring style involves lots of questions. I love asking questions to pull prior knowledge out of students, to teach them to utilize the "tools in their toolbox" to solve the problem. They have the knowledge; it is my job to bring them that confidence to pick the right tools to do the job. I love being active! I love to walk, hike, and roller blade. I also like to do strength training. I am a huge football fan. I am a Patriots fan, but I like to watch any team and to see a good game. I enjoy inviting friends and family over on a Sunday to watch football.

As you may observe I am a recent graduate from Stony Brook University (SUNY) with my PhD in Materials Science and Engineering. I have in-depth knowledge of Math and Chemistry. You may gauge the level of my knowledge in applied Math and Chemistry by going over my publications as enlisted in the CV. In addition I am a well published and cited author of various scientific publication, which demonstrate my command on English language, even though I was born and brought up in India.

In June 2010, I graduated from the Gallatin School of Individualized Study and NYU where I studied Jazz Guitar Performance and Creative Writing. Shortly after graduating, I began working as an ophthalmic technician at a private ophthalmology practice in Brooklyn and decided I wanted to pursue medicine.I completed a post-baccalaureate program at CUNY Hunter College from Fall 2011 to Spring 2013. During this time, I completed two levels of courses in biology, general chemistry, organic chemistry and physics as well as one semester of calculus. I became involved in Hunter's Physical Sciences Center, where I went on to tutor students in chemistry, organic chemistry and physics. I also took on several private students in organic chemistry.In the Fall of 2014, I matriculated at Stony Brook University School of Medicine in Long Island, where I will soon begin my second year.When tutoring, I focus on laying down a strong foundation of understanding before delving into the nuances of different subjects. Students too often fall into a cycle of keeping up with material as a series of pieces of information, never understanding the core concepts and attempting to memorize individual facts. With science and math, it is important to dedicate a lot of time when beginning a subject to clearly understand these core concepts. I have found that successfully approaching these subjects in a bottom-up way can mean the difference between continuously struggling frustratingly through courses like organic chemistry and learning to love them.Completing my first year of medical school has given me a new appreciation for the role that science plays outside of the classroom. I am passionate about these subjects and enjoy passing that passion onto students.

I am an undergraduate student at Stonybrook University. I am a biology major on the pre-medicine track. I recently graduated from high school with an advanced diploma in Math and Science, achieving a 95+ score in all regents tests. I have tutored students at my temple and at my high school. Even though I have tutored many subjects, my expertise is in highschool math and science classes. I also teach chess, having a 1200+ rapid rating. I greatly believe in teaching with fun and passion and I try my best to make the learning process for my student as fun as possible. In my spare time, I usually practice magic tricks and I might incorporate tricks in my lessons.

I have tutored mainly math-related subjects for K-12 and college students for more than 5 years. I utilize graphs, interesting symbols, and a more user-friendly language to convey complex math concepts according to my students. I also teach conversational Chinese Mandarin. My goal is to let my students learn the subject efficiently and be prepared for exams, such as PSAT, SAT, or GRE, in a rather relaxing environment.

I am an undergraduate student majoring in biochemistry with intentions of pursuing a minor in applied mathematics and statistics at Stony Brook University. I have an array of experience tutoring students from varying age groups. I have tutored for over four years, tutoring both in-person and online platforms. Although I enjoy teaching students a diverse range of subjects, I am particularly passionate about teaching students all the different branches of math along with chemistry. I believe that all students are capable of mastering their content as I like to assist with not only the current content but also the studying tools needed to tackle any future assignments!

I graduated from Stony Brook University Cum Laude with a B.A. in History and French Language and Literature, focusing my History major on Modern European History. During my early college days I also spent time as a journalism student and spent time tutoring for the SAT writing section. These two experiences, along with my eventual alignment with French literature and history, developed my writing skills and made it one of my strongest and most comfortable subjects. History has been a lifelong love of mine and my energy and passion to teach is derived, in large part, from my fascination with mankind's past. I find that history has, for me, the most natural feel when it comes to teaching because the act thereof does not simply entail the recital of fact, but rather the recounting of a greater narrative within which the facts and specific events of the past may be found. Outside of academia, I am an avid reader, enjoying works in both French and English, and take joy in traveling, football, and various types of games, including those played with cards, boards, or on television screens.

I am an adjunct professor and freelance writer with a PhD in history. I write and teach a lot about women's studies, cultural history, and transnational studies with a particular emphasis on the Modern Middle East and US-Turk relations. As for teaching and outreach: Ive found that making the material pertinent and connecting it to who you are and where you want to be will make it come alive. Hence, in tutoring and teaching I enjoy teasing out the material into a story. That way we have something to entertain us as we build a timeline and craft a memory of the past, of peoples, and of communities.I'm also the author of numerous books, the most recent being Comics as History, Comics as Literature and book chapters, reference entries, book reviews, and journal articles. My busy publication career deals extensively on nationalism, womens rights, women's liberation, Turkish-US relations, transnational feminism, and travel literature. Most recently I completed two smaller pieces: Failing New Women: Anne Shirleys Legacy, The New Woman, and World War I and Importing the Ethnic: Voyeurism on Your Dinner Plate (concerning the permeation of American Chinese food). Both are due out in the ensuing year, and both were absolute fun to write. In teaching and writing I like to focus on how to engage and make the story come to life.I also publish travel literature and some fiction outside of academia and serve as co-chair of the European Association of American Studies Women's Steering Committee.This past summer I crafted travel writing while spelunking in the Iowas Women's Archives and the Oregon State University Archives, as my co-writer and I have been crafting a discursive examination of food safety, activism, and grassroots women's voices. This project Safety For Our Souls has received funding from several libraries. That being said . . . the fuel that makes this endless hard work worthwhile is engaging students and building skills in creative ways that make the mundane really feel less like work and more like an excursion into something entertaining.

As a Ph.D. in Biochemistry, I have years of experiences teaching undergraduates in the class room and conducting research in the laboratory. While obtaining my Ph.D. I became well versed in breaking down the complex subject material found in biology courses and presenting it to my students in a clear and understandable manner. Biology is more a story than memorizing a long list of facts, and as a Biology "story teller", my students retain more information than they ever did before.While at Stony Brook University, I worked as an assistant teaching new high school AP Biology teachers from the Tri-State area. Here I re-visited the high school curriculum, and soon after broadened my teaching experiences in various high school level subjects, such as math and history.The sciences, like all subjects, require strong study skills. As a teacher/tutor, I focus on instilling proper note-taking and study habits. While my students have me as a instructor now, they will need the proper educational foundation and skills to succeed as they progress in their academic careers. And it is my desire to guide them to that point.

I am the first person in my family to be born in the United States. My entire family are immigrants and it was only recently that my last remaining family members came over from China. This meant that growing up I was the eldest of all the children in my family. Being an only child myself, I had a lot of responsibility to take care and help raise my cousins who are all younger. My interest and experience in tutoring comes from helping my cousins through school.My oldest cousin after me is three younger which means she was about to learn everything that I just had. When I a senior in high school, my cousins ranged from elementary school to freshman in high school. Going off to college led me to reflect on all the years I spent helping my cousins through school. Ever since middle school I would help them with math, writing, reading, and even on science projects. Moreover, I taught them about school itself how to learn, how to make friends, where to go for lunch, and so on.Watching them grow up made me understand what teaching and tutoring really means. Having the support from someone older who can also assist in academics builds confidence that students will carry throughout their academic careers. This is especially important at a young age. Even when I was at college my cousins would call from time to time about a problem they were having, school related or not. This is why my preference for being a tutor at Varsity Tutors is middle school and high school. I'd like to help students build their academic confidence while learning what they need to for school.

Hi my name is Kelsey and I'm excited to work with you! I'm a college student at Stony Brook University pursing a degree in Psychology and Public Health, I'm also working on my associates degree in Biology. I graduated high school in 2017 and was a member of the National Honors Society and the World Language Honors Society. I look forward to working with you.

I am currently pursuing a Master of Arts in Liberal Studies (MA/LS) with focus on Business and Marketing at Stony Brook University, NY, USA. Since 2008, I have been working as a Teaching Assistant and Substitute Teacher in private and public schools in NY USA.I have served for three years as the Head of the Business & Marketing Department in Bahria College, Islamabad, Pakistan. During my time as Head, I worked directly under the Principal to develop new curricula for A’ Levels and O’ Levels, interviewing new candidates, organizing college-wide events, organizing tours for new students and managing all associated paperwork and correspondence.Simultaneously, I had the privilege of teaching economics and business studies to the O’ & A’ Levels (the British System equivalent to Grade 9-12 & first two years of Undergraduate Studies).In that capacity, I strongly believe in a philosophy of lifelong learning to meet the challenges of global competence. Keeping this vision in mind, I have been able to remain sensitive to the needs of students for exploring comprehensive multi-disciplinary studies, preparation for work, academic and social competence and a sense of citizenship that incorporates the cultures of all students into instruction.These are some of the courses I have completed towards accomplishing my Master of Arts in Liberal Studies (MA/LS) that have widened my perspective and vision towards HR and its relation with the Business needs and Management: Ethics in Management, Organizational Change Management, Foundations of Human Resource Management, Survey of Labor/Employment Relations, HR Management Workshop, and The Uses and Abuses of Technology.

I have been tutoring for years in a variety of subjects, but my true passion is the structure, mechanics, and analysis of language - both English and Spanish. I graduated as Valedictorian from Stony Brook University with my B.A. in Spanish Language & Literature. I have been studying Spanish since the 6th grade and have spent extensive periods of time abroad, which range from taking linguistics classes in Madrid to doing farm work in rural Mexico. I love to learn and teach others. While finding the right answer is important, I also want my students to develop critical thinking skills that can be transferred to many realms of life. "Bring a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime."

Im a graduate of Stony Brook University. I have my Bachelor of Science in Business Management Operations and International Business. Versed in global business with exposure to international leadership experience, I have taught English to English Professors at Changsha University of Science and Engineering in China. I have written, developed, and executed curriculums ranging from topics like ESL to Social Entrepreneurship and of varying proficiency levels. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about English, literature, and business consultancy. Im here to help in any stage of the writing process from brainstorming to editing a final paper. Im available for personal statements, literature analysis, resume writing, and creative writing. Im also versed in business writing from business plans to marketing strategy and elevator pitches. I believe in efficient and effective foundational structure building in any type of learning process, especially with writing. I work with students to set attainable goals to manage stress, expectations, and apply critical knowledge of the material into transferable skills.Outside my studies, I have achieved my piano Certificate of Merit from the Music Teachers Association of California after ten plus years. Finally, partaking in my school's debating society has taught me how to organize my ideas in a coherent style. For personal enjoyment, I submit my work to literary publications such as The Antigonish Review, Uncanny Magazine, Feminine Inquiry, and the Poetry Foundation.

I received my BA in English from Barnard College, Columbia University, where I graduated summa cum laude in 2011. I'm currently a PhD Candidate and Instructor in the English Department at Stony Brook University.Over the past eight years, I've worked with a wide range of students, ages elementary through college as both a tutor and classroom instructor. I teach college literature classes during the year and work in a pre-college program at Columbia teaching research, writing and public speaking to high school students every summer. I love discussing literature and writing with my students and enjoy working to improve their skills in these areas.

I am a current civil engineering graduate at Stony Brook University. I enjoy helping students in my free time, especially those with interests associated with STEM, to understand the material they are learning in their academics.I am also a current tunnel engineering intern for Mott MacDonald, and am in the process of obtaining my EIT, as I passed my FE - Civil Exam in the fall of 2022!

I graduated from Farmingdale State College in 2015 with a B.S. in Applied Psychology. I also earned my Masters degree in Psychology from Stony Brook University.I started tutoring on my own approximately seven years ago. I have tutored over 600 hours and I received an abundance of positive feedback from my students and their parents.I specialize in SAT and ACT preparation for high school student. I am also interested in tutoring college students preparing for the GRE general test. For test preparation, I assign a decent amount of homework each week and I spend the majority of my sessions going over the questions my students answer incorrectly.While all of my "professional" and "academic" qualities are certainly important, I think it's also necessary for you to understand more about me as a person. I consider myself a "nerd" and I am no longer self-conscious about it - it's who I am. I love school, but aside from that I enjoy reading and writing. To me, the smell of a bookstore is like that of a decadent chocolate cake to many others. Although throughout the school year I typically only engage in academic writing, in my down-time I write poetry and I'm working on a young adult novel. I'm an athlete. When I was younger I did karate for about 6.5 years and got my black belt. Finally, during the winter I take pleasure in crocheting. I make hats, blankets, stuffed animals, and anything else I can come up with.

I am a Senior majoring in Chemical Engineering at Stony Brook University and am interested in potentially pursuing a career in academics.

Hi!! My name is Tiffany and I am an RN at Stony Brook Hospital in Stony Brook, NY. My specialty is cardiovascular surgery.

This letter is to introduce myself and acknowledge my interest in tutoring. I am a first year graduate student at Seton Hall University working towards my Ph.D. at Counseling Psychology. I have got my Bachelors of Science in Pre-medicine and Psychology and my Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I aspire to be a professor once I get my doctorate because teaching has always been a passion along with continuing clinical work and research.I graduated with a Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Syracuse University in Dec, 2016. During my time there, I have worked with faculty members in teaching masters level course (Psychopathology), organizing conferences, presenting on topic of interest and mentoring incoming masters students. Through these experiences I have gained leadership, organization and teaching skills that will highly coincide with the job requirements. I am well aware of the dedication, effort, creativity and commitment required for becoming a tutor.My teaching and mentor style is to empower students. I believe the act of teaching is creative and fluid where the teacher has to mold their teaching style according to the student's requirements and learning style. I am a firm believer that every person have their own unique learning style and it can be highly beneficial for the student if they feel supported and safe to take risks and build confidence in the subject matter they are struggling in.I am proficient in grade and high school level reading, writing, math, algebra, statistics. Geometry and Biology. As these topics can be challenging and concepts hard to grasp, I like to use creative, fun ways to relate them to real life problems to make better meaning of it.Outside of school and research, I like to hike with my puppy, read and paint.I appreciate your time to review my credentials and experience. Thank you for your consideration.

I am a third year medical student at Wayne State University tutoring math and science. I graduated Summa Cum Laude from Stony Brook University with a major in Biochemistry. I first developed my passion for teaching from 7 years of experience as a martial arts and boxing instructor. I was able to develop my tutoring skill during my time at Stony Brook where I worked as both a calculus tutor and a chemistry teaching assistant. Yes, I am a nerd but you will find that I am very personable and really care about helping students reach their full potential!

I got my bachelors at Washington University in St. Louis, double majoring in Environmental Earth Science and Germanic Language and Literature, and minoring in Writing. Currently I'm working towards my PhD in Marine Science at Stony Brook University (NY), doing research in the field of marine biogeochemistry. That's a bit of a mouthful, but basically it means I study the way living things interact with the chemistry of the ocean, and how that interaction gets recorded in mud and rock. Based on this expertise, I enjoy tutoring in general science, chemistry, and earth science.I also have a solid foundation in the language arts, having worked for three years as a Writing Mentor at Washington University in St. Louis. During this time, I was trained to help students with writing projects at any stage of the writing process, from brainstorming to line-editing. When I studied abroad in Germany for a year, I worked as a tutor for German students with English writing projects. This was a wonderful experience that allowed me to develop a deeper understanding of English academic writing by approaching it from a non-native perspective, while simultaneously improving my fluency in German, which I have studied for ten years. Following these experiences, I also enjoy tutoring in writing, English, German, and the Reading/Writing/Language sections of standardized tests (ACT, SAT, and GRE). My favorite subject to tutor is writing; I love to write myself, and there is nothing better than being able to help students develop confidence and enjoyment in their own writing.When I'm tutoring in any subject, my focus is not on the completion of a short-term task, like a specific assignment or test; rather, my goal is always to use the task at hand to help the student become a better reader, writer, learner, and thinker. Above all, I aim to teach the student to teach themselves; the ultimate accomplishment for me as a tutor is to no longer be needed.When I'm not teaching or doing research, I like to write stories, read science fiction books, play violin with the University Orchestra, and hang out with my two parakeets, Max and Pogo.

I currently have an honors degree from Stony Brook University in Applied Mathematics andSstatistics, I am also currently in graduate school at Stony Brook University to receive my Masters in Teaching.Working with students has always been a passion of mine and is now something I am pursuing. I currently work as a part-time dance instructor and teach children ranging from the ages 2 to 18. Through this job experience I have helped encourage and inspire student to do their best and have also helped tutor these student on occasion in between classes. I would love to continue to help students achieve their goals and push each student to their fullest potential!

I am a Mechanical Engineer. At the moment though, I have decided to change directions and pursue a career in medicine. As I go to school part time and prepare for my MCAT, I am tutoring physics, mathematics, biology, and chemistry, here at Varsity Tutors with my spare time.I graduated from New York Institute of Technology with a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering and then obtained my Master of Science in Mechanical Engineering from Stony Brook University.I'm able to tutor physics, math, chemistry, and biology from grades 7-12 and the collegiate level. For those looking to get straight A's throughout the semester or ace the regents, let's start the year off on the right foot.My teaching methods are excellent, and unlike most tutors, I bring fun and excitement to the subject, because we all know how boring the physical and biological sciences can be at times. Using various analogies and examples, I find that I capture my students attention and bring the best out of them.Most importantly, I look forward to helping my students, allowing them to excel and achieve their goals. After being tutored by me, you will be believe me when I say, "The Sky Is The Limit."

Hi! My name is Mandy, and I am a Biochemistry and Psychology double major with a minor in Finance at Stony Brook University. I am passionate about helping students build confidence in their abilities and achieve their academic goals. As an Undergraduate Teaching Assistant for Introductory Biology Laboratory at Stony Brook University, I work closely with students to explain complex concepts, guide laboratory activities, teach data analysis using Excel, and help students improve their scientific writing skills. Through this experience, I have learned that every student learns differently, and I enjoy adapting my teaching style to meet each student's individual needs. I tutor biology, chemistry, psychology, ACT preparation, and study skills for middle school, high school, and college students. My approach focuses on breaking down challenging topics into manageable steps while encouraging students to think critically and develop effective problem-solving strategies. I strive to create a supportive and welcoming environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and learning from mistakes. As a student myself, I understand the challenges that come with balancing coursework, exams, and extracurricular responsibilities. Because of this, I emphasize not only subject mastery but also strong study habits, organization, and confidence-building techniques that students can apply throughout their academic journey. Whether you're preparing for an important exam, looking to improve your grades, or seeking a deeper understanding of a subject, I would love to help. I look forward to working with you and supporting your success!

I have been tutoring for over five years. I specialize in test prep and assisting students in improving their writing skills. I also work with students in history and general homework help.I am a published writer with articles in national and local publications and Yahoo! Finance. I wrote about legal and financial issues and discovered that I really enjoy the law - so I moved to Williamsburg, Virginia for three years and studied at the College of William & Mary, the country's oldest law school. During the week, I am a practicing attorney who has taken and passed three bar exams - each on the first attempt.I believe that any student can achieve their goals and no one style fits everyone. I maintain flexibility and adjust my methodologies for each student that I work with. However, I generally like to keep my sessions casual, focusing on improving the student's confidence and scores, as I have found that some students become discouraged when they struggle.In my spare time I read a wide variety of books, enjoy listening to music, and playing with my three-year-old daughter. When I can find time, I like doing crossword puzzles as well.
