Award-Winning Tutors from Stony Brook University

I have four years of full-time classroom teaching experience, but many more as a tutor. I started tutoring when I was in the sixth grade, and I now work with students from grades six through college. I also teach SAT and ACT preparation courses. While my favorite subject to teach is Social Studies, my Math and English students have gone on to great success as well. I know that every student has a unique learning style and success is often a matter of finding the right motivation. When I'm not teaching, my favorite thing to do is read to my own children.

I am a PhD student studying marine biology at Stony Brook University, where I study how plankton (very small animals in the ocean) move around and catch food. Before coming to graduate school, I did my undergraduate degree in Biology at Tufts University in Medford/Somerville, MA. My hobbies include knitting, running, and, of course, reading!Another one of my long-term interests is education. I worked with preschoolers for a full year in college through an AmeriCorps literacy program in low-income preschools. Later, I worked as a teaching assistant for five semesters (three as an undergraduate, and two as a graduate student), teaching biology, chemistry, and environmental science. Most recently, I worked at a local tutoring center with students ages 7-16, tutoring reading/writing, English, and math. I have also worked with several high school and undergraduate student research volunteers in the lab.My favorite subjects are math and science, but I also love reading, writing, and French! I spent five months living in France during my undergraduate degree, and I speak near-fluent French. I love working with kids and young adults, and I'd be happy to work with you to develop study strategies and learn new things!

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.

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.

Hello to all my students! My name is Irfan, and I am more than happy to help. I am a medical doctor with strengths in anatomy, biology, and several other sciences. I was once where you were, and I fully understand that sometimes some subjects are just too difficult to understand. I believe, however, from my experience that no subject is too difficult. The key is to break down the topics in simpler terms that are easy to digest! After that, you will be able to tackle anything. I am here to assist you on your journey and look forward to working with you! :)

I recently graduated from Stony Brook University with a Bachelors of Science in Biology and a Bachelors of Arts in Sociology. While in college, I tutored children in SAT math as well as subjects such as chemistry and biology. I have recently also taken the MCAT and am very passionate about chemistry, biology, biochemistry, psychology and sociology. While tutoring students, I have seen progress in the skills and techniques they acquire for standardized tests. I believe such strategies are important to grasp and I can help them obtains such knowledge. I hope to impart the knowledge I have obtained on future students and help them succeed in their goals.

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!

Hi my name is Sree and I'm currently studying Biology at Stony Brook! I'm excited to help with whatever you're having trouble with and hopefully we will power through together. If you have any questions feel free to ask any time!

I am a graduate of Hamilton College in upstate NY and recently received my Master's degree in Physiology & Biophysics from Stony Brook University. I am a pre-med student with a Bachelor's degree in Economics with minors in Chemistry and Biology. I will be starting medical school in the fall and have experience in the application process. I enjoy providing advice and feedback to individuals who are on a similar track.I am the oldest of 4 children, therefore I have a lot of experience with helping young students learn, as well as a lot of patience. Most recently, I worked as a STEM instructor at Launch Math and Science Centers in NYC on the Upper West Side. That experience made me realize how passionate I am about engaging students in the STEM field and education in general and how important it is to make learning a fun process. I love tutoring students in math, science, and economics because I have a strong background and foundation in these areas. I also wish that I had been introduced to the STEM and economics fields at a younger age, therefore my goal with tutoring is to inspire the students that I work with. I love tutoring in economics because I believe it provides essential concepts for any field that a student is eager to pursue. For example, I have found economics to be extremely applicable to the healthcare field, which is one of the main reasons that I chose to major in it.In addition, I lived abroad in Morocco for 10 years and had the opportunity to help students prepare for their AP exams and applications to universities in the United States. My long-term career goals include going to medical school and becoming an Ob/gyn. I hope to someday treat women in underserved regions of the world. In the meantime, I enjoy working in my research lab, cooking, traveling, and kickboxing.

Hi, my name is Sunny Wong and I am a graduate student currently attending NYU 's Tandon School of Engineering. I have a background in chemistry, biology and mathematics.

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!

My goal is to exemplify your strengths and pinpoint your weaknesses. Once I discover that weakness, I will do everything in my power to turn it into a strength. It doesn't matter who you are or how smart you are, I want to see you prosper!

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.

I am a graduate of Stony Brook University. I doubled majored in both Applied Mathematics and Psychology. I started my journey of tutoring when I was in high school. During my high school years, I started as a volunteer at a tutoring center assisting Kindergarten kids to 3rd graders with Math, English, and Art. Slowly, I became an afterschool tutor and loved the fulfilling feeling after seeing my student's betterment. Moving on to college, I carried on that passion for tutoring and become a Teacher Assistant for both Multivariable Calculus and Financial Mathematics classes to help my peers with their questions on class materials. After graduating from college, I helped my friend in prepping for her GRE because I wanted her to study more effectively for the test instead of wasting time trying out different studying techniques and various test prep materials.While I tutored a broad range of subjects, I am the most passionate about tutoring math as I have firm confidence in my knowledge of mathematics, and I mostly helped students with their math courses. During my tutoring experiences, I am a tutor who likes to utilize examples and real-life scenarios in my explanation.

My name is Rachel! I am a college English professor at Suffolk County Community College , and have been tutoring students of all ages in English, math, and history for ten years. I experience joy every time I can help a struggling student understand, or even enjoy a subject. I am very experienced in tailoring lessons to meet an individual's needs, so no matter what your issue is, we can figure out how to solve it together! I look forward to talking to you.

I began teaching at the college level nearly ten years ago, and have taught courses in writing, literature, philosophy, and history. I have taught a wide diversity of students in a variety of contexts at several different institutions, including a one-an-a-half year tenure in Senegal working with West African students. As a professor, I have always highly valued opportunities to work with students on a one-on-one basis, and this experience led me to seek out work as a tutor. As a tutor I am most passionate about teaching writing, critical thinking, history and philosophy.I am a currently a doctoral student in the Philosophy Department at Stony Brook University, presently in the dissertation writing phase of the program. I have a MA in Art History and Theory from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and a BFA in Painting from Maryland Institute College of Art.When beginning to work with a student no matter the level of the student or the subject matter to be covered I always make sure that the student and I are on the same page. This means, in the first place, that I understand exactly what the students goal is and what she or he wants and needs from me. It also means that the student understands how I plan to facilitate the achievement of her or his goal. I am also sure to learn from the student what she or he feels to be their greatest weakness or source of difficulty in the pursuit of their goal. Establishing all of these things at the outset allows me to devise the most effective lessons and the ensures that the tutoring process is as effective and efficient as possible.

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 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 am a graduate of Stony Brook University. I received my Bachelor of Science in Psychology with a focus on the sciences as I followed a pre-dental course track. Since graduation, I have applied to and been accepted to the Stony Brook University School of Dental Medicine, which I will be attending starting in August. I had previously been an SAT tutor with a test prep company for two years and I have experience in tutoring college level Physics at my University. As a result of my work experience and college education, I am proficient in all the SAT sections, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, general Essay Writing, Biochemistry, and Psychology. I personally enjoy tutoring SAT Critical Reading and Physics the most. To me, language is beautiful and I love exploring and discussing the mechanics of analyzing literature (as students must do on the Critical Reading Section). Physics, on the other hand, explains many of the wondrous everyday phenomenon around us. As a child, I would often think about why things moved the way they did and physics gave me those answers. I enjoy traveling and have been to several US states, Egypt several times, Australia, Italy, Mexico, and the Caribbean. Some of my most memorable experiences include scuba diving in the Great Barrier Reef and sky diving. I speak Arabic semi-fluently and I enjoy reading and training in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and kickboxing. Overall, I am very approachable and patient and will do my best to serve you as a tutor!

I studied at Stony Brook University and the Art Institute of Philadelphia, where I received Masters of Social Work and Bachelors of Science degrees, respectively. I am also a licensed social worker in New York State.I tutor students in: Spanish, reading, writing (including college essays),psychology, social sciences, and public speaking.My favorite subjects to tutor are Spanish and reading. I am in love with the Spanish language and sharing my knowledge of it is an immense joy. Reading is also incredibly fun to teach, because it is exciting to see students make progress, buiild confidence, and start to see how big the world becomes as they advance to higher reading levels.My philosophy is simple: keep it fun, and help the student to become self-motivated. Once a student sees that learning can be joyful, rather than painful, they will look forward to honing their skills and tackling increasingly difficult areas of a given subject.I have previously taught: reading to five-year-olds, essay writing to college students, English and Spanish as second languages,and life-management skills in a variety of settings.

I am a recent graduate from Stony Brook University and have received my Bachelors of Science degree in Biology. Over my undergraduate career I have tutored many different students ranging from grades 4-12 as well as several college classes. I have always loved being able to work with a student or colleague to find the right answer of a difficult question. I tutor math (Calculus, Geometry, Trigonometry, Algebra) as well as SAT math, English, and science (Biology, Chemistry, Physics, and Biochemistry). I really enjoy tutoring math and English! Math always has an answer to work towards and can be taught using various mediums. English is also a favorite subject of mine as I love to read and write and love reading the works of others. I like to tutor subjects by working through problems with students and practicing problems. Outside of academics, I enjoy hiking and have almost finished half of the Appalachian trail. I also enjoy archery and shoot olympic recurve style.

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 devotee of educational importance, I cannot be more determined and excited to see new faces and spread the knowledge that has been bestowed upon me. I am a Syosset High School graduate, a part of the Stony Brook University Class of 2020, and a future part of the Stony Brook Medicine Class of 2024. As a member of the Honors College and the Scholars for Medicine program, I am working towards a Bachelor of Science (BS) degree in Chemistry in my undergraduate studies and will be working towards a Doctor of Medicine (MD) degree in my graduate studies at Stony Brook Hospital.Ever since junior year of high school, I've been exposed to a plethora of tutoring opportunities that have helped me perfect my skills in the field. I've worked as a volunteer tutor, an employee for the Kumon Learning Center, and as a private tutor. I've allocated 650 hours of tutoring experience towards the academic progression of elementary, middle, and high school students alike, and I can't wait to tutor you next!Over the span of my tutoring experience, I've taught subjects ranging from middle and high school mathematics and sciences to SAT/ACT/AP examination prep, with a strong focus in the latter. My favorite subjects to tutor are those covered by standardized exams because, as a student who formerly performed poorly on these exams, I've experienced not only the struggle from scoring inadequately but also the joy and relief from improving significantly and overcoming the odds. This is why my mission is to ensure each and every one of my students experiences the same jaw-dropping improvement that I experienced.

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.

As a 4th year undergraduate student at Stony Brook University, I understand how difficult school can be. I have gone through my share of trail and error in how to study. I also understand that not every method of studying works for everyone and some subjects require different methods of studying. But in all cases, perseverance is necessary to succeed. I have been a teacher's assistant for general and organic chemistry. I have also tutored for molecular biology and basic statistics. Throughout my time, I have learned that students are smarter than they believe. Most of the time, students just need clarification, patience, and encouragement.A little about myself: I am a pre-med student with a major in Health Science and a concentration in Public Health. My end goal is to one day work for the World Health Organization, traveling the world and helping to prevent epidemics such as Ebola and malaria. But in the mean time, I focus much of my time tutoring, so I can help others achieve the academic success that I have had.

I graduated from CUNY Hunter College with my Masters in English Literature in 2019, marking the end to a long period of intense study and travel. Since then, I have gone on to become an instructor and tutor for first-year undergraduates and older adult students at my local community college, where I have helped to coach students on ways to improve their writing and research strategies for their schoolwork and other projects. While my field of study focuses primarily on English Literature, I am eager to learn more about History, Philosophy, and the many areas of science.I try to maintain a relaxed environment while working with students, treating my one-on-one sessions like friendly conversations, which I find helps to put students at their ease even in the face of approaching deadlines. That being said, my sessions can be as in-depth as needed. While I am happy to advise on grammar and spelling, I will switch the focus to important content concerns if I see fundamental issues that need to be addressed. My goal is to help students stay on task, and to ensure that their arguments in writing are supported by strong details and the appropriate use of evidence.Teaching undergraduates has given me a unique perspective as I now approach my first year teaching as a certified teacher for high school English. I have seen for myself the importance of college readiness, and I have made it a professional goal of mine to better prepare students for the rigors of academic writing later in life.When I am not reading for research or for fun, I'm a shameless nerd, and I love to talk about my latest hyperfixation in the worlds of movies, TV, anime, or video games.

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.

I am a junior studying computer science at Stony Brook University. I enjoy teaching so I would love more opportunities to teach. I taught as an undergraduate teaching assistant for a computer science course before. I like to exercise and play video games for fun.

I am a senior at Stony Brook University majoring in Applied Mathematics and Statistics along with a Pre-Med Track. I have tutored people in the range of 13-23 years old. I have tutored Calculus for my school's learning center. I love working with people, as I believe it is a learning for me as well. I try to approach things from different angles in order to see what works best for students.

I graduated Cum Laude with departmental honors from Stony Brook University, and with Merit from the Master of Letters program in Creative Writing from the University of Glasgow. In New York City, I still find that some are most impressed by my diploma from Stuyvesant High School.Recently, I tutored a few students for a SAT preparation program and came to enjoy it, especially in a smaller setting where the lessons can be catered to the individual needs of the student. For an English major, I'm very data driven, concerned with the most efficient ways for anyone taking tests to improve their score, as well as their opportunities for higher education. In my spare time, I enjoy writing, hiking, movies, cooking, politics, and literature.

Hi! I'm happy to help with anything you need related to History, English/Literature, Religious Studies, Social Studies, Essay Writing and Editing, Study Skills and Homework Help. I earned by B.A. from Hofstra University, and I'm a Distinguished Graduate from their Honors College. I earned two Masters degrees from Stony Brook University, and I'm a published historian.I work as an adjunct professor at SUNY Farmingdale and Suffolk County Community College, and have also taught at Queensborough Community College, SUNY Old Westbury, Stony Brook University and Briarcliffe College.When I'm not digging through archives about Native Americans (a favorite of mine), I also write fiction of the fantasy, romance, and horror variety.Not a day goes by that I don't eat chocolate.

Hi there! My goal with tutoring is help you create tools you can replicate when you're taking an exam, doing homework, or just without any guidance. My teaching style is patient, person-centered, and hands on learning. Can't wait to work with you!

I am a recent graduate of Stony Brook University with a Bachelor of Science degree in Applied Math and Statistics. Currently, I am studying for the FM and P exams in Actuarial Sciences. Mathematics has always been my strongest and most favorite subject. I was on the Math team for several years and participated in various regional Math competitions. I also have years of experience tutoring in formal and informal settings in a myriad of math subjects ranging from Algebra to Calculus IV.It is my passion to show students the beauty in math and disprove the many misconceptions of it being difficult and nonsensical, which I often find stems from poor communication between students and their teachers. As a tutor, I aim to rectify that problem with one-on-one sessions designed to tackle concepts from a different angle, that perhaps the teacher had overlooked. There is no better feeling to me than that moment of clarity when a student finally understands something they had been previously struggling with.Aside from math and studying, I also play guitar and write music in my spare time. Although many people probably would never think so, math and music are actually codependent, and one could not exist without the other. They are both natural occurrences, and I consider their relationship a unique form of art. My individual love for them both has given me a greater appreciation and understanding of them separately.

I received my Bachelor of Science in Marine Science from the University of South Carolina in 2014. I received my Master of Science in Marine and Atmospheric Science from Stony Brook University in 2016. I have experience as a TA for undergraduate lab sections and experience mentoring undergraduates. I am available to tutor for ecology, environmental science, and microbiology. My favorite subject to tutor is ecology because it is what I do every day at my job. My teaching philosophy is to find a way to convey information that is tailored to how each student learns, since everyone learns differently.Outside of academia, I am a marathon runner and am very passionate about fitness. I also enjoy reading and am teaching myself how to code.

I am currently a graduate student working toward a Masters degree in Biochemistry. I received my Bachelor of Science degree from Stony Brook University with Magna Cum Laude distinction in Biochemistry. I enjoy helping other students understand the concepts necessary to succeed in some of the most difficult courses such as Organic Chemistry, General Chemistry, Biochemistry, and Physics. In college, I served as an teaching assistant for Organic Chemistry 1 and 2 as well as Biochemistry, and I aspire to become a physician after I finish my Masters degree, and I am currently in the process of applying to medical school. My hobbies and interest include lifting weights, running, basketball, reading health and fitness magazines, and going to the movies.

Writing Is My Passion Love of language motivates me. Sharing that love is what I do. At 9, I discovered the joy of writing my inner thoughts on paper. I attribute my aha moment to my fifth grade teacher, Mrs. Whitehill, who recognized something in me that I hadn't figured a way to express, yet. She had read My Brother Sam is Dead, by James Lincoln and Christopher Collier aloud, and asked us to write a reaction to the novel. Something in me ignited that day. As a teacher, I honor my inner voice by helping students of all ages find themselves through language. I've done just about any job you could imagine from waitressing to investigating credit card fraud. Mostly, I've written and have been fortunate to earn money from my writing. Throughout 30 years I've written: journalism pieces, essays, business proposals, speeches, public relations materials as well as short stories, poems, lyrics, and fiction. I bring a wealth of real-world experience to the classroom, emphasizing the origin of creation, using many sources of knowledge. Everyone has a story to tell from rapper or spray paint artist to parent or child. Each person has a unique voice to share with the world. I help students write better using their own voice. I value the dynamic student-teacher relationship as a fundamental basis of learning and am a student-focused teacher. My classroom, or (one-on-one session) is conducted with integrity and respect for learning and focused on studying written language. As a tutor, I approach the lesson by simultaneously assessing his/her need and ability. Then step-by-step we work on the project at hand. I'm very efficient with my use of time. I strive to help my students thrive and grow to cultivate a lifelong love of language.

I am a Sophomore college student currently studying Mechanical Engineering at Stony Brook University. I strongly encourage and aims to motivate high school students to become leaders in their careers as engineers, expand the idea of engineering as a means of improving the quality of life, and increase the diversity of the engineering profession.

After working as a high school English teacher in New York for ten years, I came to Austin to pursue a PhD in Curriculum and Instruction at UT.Working with students on an individual basis is a wonderful opportunity for me to craft a personalized approach to subject matter and techniques. I especially enjoy working with students on their writing, whether personal essays or application statements that they have time to edit and revise, or on-demand writing tasks that appear on tests like the SAT or the AP Exam.

I am a rising junior at Stony Brook University (SBU), double majoring in English and Psychology with a minor in Women and Gender Studies. Currently, I am completing my research for my Honors English thesis, though I am also a Teacher's Assistant and Resident Assistant! While I tutor a broad range of subjects, my favorite topics to teach are Literature and essay editing. I truly value being able to share my love for these topics with students, with the hopes that they too will get excited about reading and writing. In my experience, helping struggling students to break through any mental block is essential to their learning process. As someone who struggled with math and science classes throughout high school (and even in my Undergraduate career), I understand how frustrating it can be to grasp certain topics, so I feel that encouraging students is just as important as teaching them the material at hand. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, playing the guitar, and spending time with my friends!

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