I am a rising junior at Stony Brook University majoring in Chemical and Molecular Engineering. My passion for tutoring started off in high school as I explained certain topics to my friends once in a while. Not only did this make me realize that it made me understand those topics better, but more importantly, it made me feel good knowing that I was able to teach something to someone successfully. This passion evolved as I became a paid tutor for the SAT test in my senior year of high school, a teaching assistant for Calc IV in my third semester of college, and a residential tutor for Organic Chemistry in my fourth semester of college. Currently, my favorite subjects to tutor are Chemistry, the SAT, and Algebra/Calculus I. I can make complex concepts and questions simpler by implementing various tips and tricks that I have learned throughout my time of learning and teaching these subjects. My teaching philosophy revolves around my belief that everyone can learn a subject, they just have to be taught the right way.

I am an experienced math tutor and have tutored all math levels from pre-algebra to multivariable calculus/differential equations. I served as the mathematics tutor for my undergraduate university's college of engineering where I worked with college students on achieving success in their courses. My teaching philosophy is that anyone can learn and achieve mastery in math, we just have to figure out what the best way to break down concepts is and simplify steps as much as possible. There are many, many ways to approach math problems, the trick is finding the one that makes to most sense to each individual. I hold a double bachelors degree in Applied Mathematics and Economics from Stony Brook University and am working on my PhD in Economics.

I am a Wake Forest University graduate with a degree in Psychology, and I am currently pursuing a career as a physical therapist.I have over 5 years of tutoring experience with students ranging from elementary to college level, tutoring math, reading, writing, and science. I have also had experience tutoring the SAT, as well as helping high school juniors and seniors with their college application process and essay writing.Throughout the years I've been a student, I've had many teachers and tutors, both good and bad. My personal philosophy is to respect my students and engage with them on their terms, and to foster a sense of purpose and positive attitude towards whatever I'm tutoring. I believe that a positive student-teacher relationship creates the best learning environment, and I try to achieve this with each of my students.I am a basketball junkie. I also enjoy football, lounging with my dog, and watching Netflix.

I am biologist passionate about teaching and making peoples lives easier.

I love tutoring students. Whether it's family, friends, or new students, I've had experiences with all different types of learners which has helped me grow as a tutor and become more flexible through experimenting and developing different teaching modes. In high school, learning to manage my time helped me dissect my learning style which resulted in more efficient and effective study methods. I joined Varsity Tutors because I want to help students not only maximize, but exceed their potential.Outside of academics, I enjoy watching and playing sports, listening to and writing and music, and hanging out with family and friends.

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 a slow learner and an ex high school struggling student, I would have never imagined I would now be pursuing a bachelor's degree in civil engineering at Stony Brook University. Therefore, I want to share my story with all types of students and motivate them to become wherever it is that they aspire to be. As a high school alumnus, current college student and tutor, I emphasize certain techniques to better understand a new foreign concept, I am a firm believer of visual representations, repeated audios, and concept application skills to convert student's weaknesses into their strengths. I love to be part of my students' school journey and tutor them in Spanish, algebra, geometry, calculus, physics, and chemistry. However, my favorite subjects to tutor are mechanics of solid, statics, and dynamics because I find them to be very interesting.When I am not at the library studying, you can always find me watching comedy movies and eating strawberry mochi ice cream.

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."

I am a graduate of Queens College and Stony Brook University. I received my Bachelor of Arts and Master of Arts in history with a focus on American history after World War II. I wrote my Master of Arts thesis on equal rights which I am incredibly passionate about. While I have experiencing tutoring a broad range of subjects, I am extremely interested in history. I firmly believe it is important to learn about not only the history of our country, but the history of the world. This is crucial because it shows how one event can be crucial to the country weather economically, socially or politically. I strongly believe that one is never too old to learn something new and that knowledge is power. In my spare time I enjoy running, exploring Long Island and New York City, and reading, especially books about World War II and Vietnam.

I was a straight A student in high school, graduate Cum Laude from Stony Brook University, and went on to attend Cornell University for my MBA. Currently I'm a start-up consultant. I've always enjoyed teaching, however, that's why I like tutoring. I've a teaching assistant many times over, both in undergrad and grad school. I've also been a private tutor since high school. My goal is help you achieve, if not exceed your own. I believe in using a student's background and interests to help them understand concepts they may not grasp upon first review. I'm always available as a resource online when there in person. I really do enjoy tutoring, and I can't wait to be yours.

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.

I, Dylan Trott, am a hardworking Mechanical Engineering student at Stony Brook University that understands the importance of helping others. I believe in uplifting my fellow students and offering my knowledge to any and all students who need it which is why I believe varsity tutoring is a perfect fit for me.

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 graduate of Binghamton University and Stony Brook University. I earned a B.S degree in Computer Science and M.S. degree in Business. As a personal tutor, my primary goal is to help my students discover a hidden sweetness in the so called bitterness of education, in the hope that one day that sweetness of knowledge will guide them to a wonderland no one has ever seen before. In my spare time, I enjoy designing hardware and software systems, researching and surfing the net, traveling, and listening to music.

I have received my Bachelor of Science degree from Stony Brook University in May 2014, graduating with Summa Cum Laude distinction. In college, I have studied biochemistry as a major, philosophy as a minor, and have been an active teaching assistant for general chemistry, physics, biochemistry, and genetics at the University. Throughout these wonderful experiences, I have worked with many students under many different settings and have experience in both one-on-one tutoring and group tutoring. Not only am I diligent in actively engaging my students into the academic material, but I am also experienced in coming up with strategic methods as to how they can improve. I try to look out for the cause of the students’ confusion, and then move on to resolve it by teaching the student the key concepts that are necessary for understanding the material. As of now, I am tutoring Algebra, Algebra 2, Algebra 3/4, Arithmetic, Elementary Math, Middle School Math, Pre-Algebra, Biochemistry, Biology, Chemistry, Genetics, Honors Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Physics, Physiology, MCAT Biological Sciences, and MCAT Physical Sciences. Every student deserves the most attention that he or she needs, and I am deeply committed, as well as strongly determined, to help my students excel in these areas.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Education is the key to discovering the innovation of the future. History shows the great strides made in accumulating knowledge due to the work of legendary scholars and renowned civilizations. To put it simply, the limits of society can only be expanded by the level of sophistication of the people living in it. We live in an age of phenomenal growth in the sciences, mathematics, technology, arts etc. and the future of society will be dependent on how we utilize that knowledge.I attended Stuyvesant High School in New York City before earning a Bachelor's of Science in Health Sciences at Stony Brook University with a concentration in Public Health. My college career was focused on the Pre-Med track and involved many courses in Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. In addition, I made sure to increase the variety of my course load by taking classes in Political Science and the social sciences. Since graduating from college, I have worked in a medical office and am in the process of completing my medical degree at the American University of Antigua. I am currently completing my clinical rotations and look to successfully acquire my degree next year.I have tutored officially and unofficially during my academic career. While in college, I was the tutor for my Chemistry 129 class, helping students to understand the fundamental nature of atomic bonds and interactions involved in chemical reactions. My tutoring involved leading group sessions during and after lecture as well as individual office hour appointments during the week. Learning revolved around guidance for weekly quizzes as well. My Bio 358 course covered an extensive array of topics from molecular biology, chemistry, and the social sciences and the interactions between them. Tutoring with students was accomplished by initiating and moderating discussions on online forums and well as group sessions for the concepts covered in lecture. I also was involved in tutoring fellow students for classes in an unofficial manner by leading exam review sessions as well as helping in write up of lab reports and essays.My favorite subjects to tutor are Biology, Chemistry, History, Political Science, and Mathematics. I view learning to be a lifelong pursuit and that which must be varied and broad in scope. True growth through studying many different disciplines can change the way we view the world and keep a balance of how we live in it. Its the reason I feel comfortable tutoring in these subjects because it helps me learn new things and remember the ones I've forgotten. My tutoring style focuses on devising specific plans for each student based on their knowledge level. In addition, developing a strong relationship with the student can help overcome any obstacles that are bound to occur and maintain a steady progression to fulfilling the goals of the student.I firmly believe that being a well rounded individual is the best way to approach the different obstacles and struggles in life and to constantly improve my limits. Aside from my tutoring activities, I like to involve myself in community and leadership-development activities. During my time at college and my medical school career, I have been involved in many clubs and organizations. I was also a resident assistant at Stony Brook University as well as the Vice-President/Treasurer of an anti-tobacco club on campus which were both fulfilling positions to hold. My interests also include playing sports such as basketball and football. I helped manage multiple teams for my college's intramural competitions as well as running a basketball club during my first two years of medical school.

I am a recent graduate from Stony Brook University with a double Bachelors of Science in Biology and Anthropology. While attending Stony Brook University I specialized in ecology and biological anthropology and was an undergraduate researcher in a population genetics lab. My future goal is to obtain my PhD in human evolutionary biology (particularly population genetics). This coming fall, I will be starting a position as a laboratory assistant at the University of Michigan. My primary teaching experience has been through my undergraduate career, as I was a teacher’s assistant for an upper division biology course. Beyond my teaching assistant role, I was a resident assistant for 2 years. In this position, I guided and mentored many of my peers, be it academically or personally. My specific academic strengths are ecology, evolution, genetics, biological anthropology and archaeology. My interests in these topics were heightened when I had the opportunity to participate in a study abroad program in Kenya. I was able to extensively study and explore the ecological, archaeological and geological uniqueness of the Turkana region of Kenya. On my down time I love spending time outdoors exploring nature and the beautiful world we have. My general approach when tutoring students is to first, determine the student’s strengths and weaknesses and then utilize these strengths and weaknesses to determine the appropriate studying and learning plan. I am passionate and eager to start sharing my knowledge and experiences with my students!

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 graduate of the honors college of the State University of New York at Stony Brook, where I received Bachelor of Science degrees in Computer Science and Applied Mathematics.

I have been told I am very easy to work with! Hope to hear from you soon!

I am a well-rounded individual that is able to communicate fantastically with kids. I never let myself get frustrated with pupils, which is a strength of mine as I can explain the same concept in a variety of ways until I feel comprehension has finally been reached. My ultimate goal is not to simply make sure a child knows a formula, but more importantly the concept behind that formula, and under what circumstances it needs to be applied. With my help, I can make sure pupils learn not only the what and when of a concept, but also the why and how. In my eyes, very few things are as fulfilling as teaching and making friends in the process.

I was born and raised in NYC but recently moved to Georgia. I am currently a Social worker licensed as a LMSW. I have a master's degree in social work from Stony Brook University and a bachelor's degree in Psychology from Plattsburgh State. I have worked in the Human Services/Behavioral Sciences field for 5 plus years. My current career background is in providing psychotherapy and working with teens/adults with severe and persistent mental illness. I love the work that I do because I believe that there is a need for authenticity, connection, understanding and support amongst mankind. Tutoring to me is a connection between student and teach. It is a bond created on a simple goal "achieving improvement and conquering struggles." I am passionate about tutoring for the social work licensing exam as I know hands what it feels like to experience the stressors of taking this test. I have also taught Reading to middle school aged children and find joy in helping my student develop their imaginations and achieve their goals.A Fun Fact about me: My guilty pleasure is a box of Italian rainbow cookies :)

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.

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 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.

I'm a recent grad of Stony Brook University with a B.A. in Psychology. I use my discipline of choice to break down the learning process and find the best individually tailored approach for each student. My favorite subjects are English, Math, and, of course, Psychology.Two of my specialties are SAT/PSAT and AP Test preparation. I received a National Merit Scholarship for the PSAT, ranked above 97th percentile in each area of the SAT, and achieved National AP Scholar with Honors.In my free time I enjoy gaming with friends, playing percussion, and listening to a variety of music. I hope to apply my education in Psychology to a career in game design someday. In the meantime I use the same principles to make lessons fun.

I have always been a goal oriented and reaching-for-the-stars individual. As a New York native, I graduated as the salutatorian from high school with regents' honors. I have excelled with 95%+ in all of my high school regents examinations. As a high school student I fell in love with Math & Science and frequently tutored my colleagues who were struggling with their classes. In my senior year of high school I achieved the NY1 Scholar Athlete scholarship and was placed on the NYC Chancellor's Honor Roll. I then went on to Stony Brook University where I graduated with my Bachelors of Science in Biology. At Stony Brook, I was on the Dean's List every semester and a Golden Key Honor Society Member. After completing my undergraduate science classes, I became a Teaching Assistant for Biology and Chemistry. As a teaching assistant, I met with students on a one to one basis during office hours and helped strengthen their problem areas.After undergrad, I went to medical school and graduated with honors. During medical school I tutored and prepared students for the United States Medical License examinations. I prepared and delivered daily lectures for the internal medicine students and increased the pass rate from 65% to 90%. I completed my medical clerkships and attained my M.D. December 2014.I am committed, devoted and conscientious to everything I set my mind on and my decision to tutor reflects my lifelong desire for personal growth and education. When tutoring, I believe that 'diagnosing' a student's weakness is essential to building a strong foundation. It is my motto to work hard and give nothing less than my very best. It brings joy to me and the thrill of seeing a student improve with my help drives my compassion and love for teaching. Teaching not only excites me but has become a part of me that I am dedicated to and passionate about. In my spare time I enjoy playing volleyball and running various races and marathons.

I absolutely love teaching! I've taught ESL, Spanish and Italian to students ages 7 through adulthood! I teach Spanish and Italian in a high school during the day and then teach ESL to adults and young children two evenings each week. During the summer months you'd think I'd rest right? Nope! I take my amazing 12 year old son and we travel to Central America to help build homes during the morning hours and I then spend the afternoons alternating between a middle school and a high school teaching ESL. I consider myself blessed to say that I have a career doing something I absolutely love and enjoy!I was raised in New York and received a B.A. in Hispanic Languages and Literature from SUNY Stony Brook. While doing my undergraduate study, I concentrated my studies in the Central and South American regions. My Master's degree is in Romance Languages (Italian/Spanish), also from SUNY Stony Brook.When I am not teaching or studying, I enjoy reading, going to the movies, boxing, and traveling! Well, I think that about wraps me up in a nutshell!Looking forward to meeting you soon!-Esme

I'm a medical resident. looking to tutor in biology, anatomy, math, and MCAT prep. Teaching is one of my passions, and I have tutored since I was in high school. I continued to tutor while at Stony Brook University where I graduated with a double major in applied math and bioinformatics/computational biology. Due to unfortunate circumstances, I need to stay home for the next few months. I do not want to stop my tutoring so here I am looking to help students virtually! Medical school has made biology my favorite subject to tutor in as I've really nailed in me how to learn and understand a lot of material in a short amount of time. Medical school has taught me many approaches and tactics to making learning more efficient I wish I knew about earlier. I aim to share these methods with my students to make them stand out from the rest.

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.

As someone who was once tutored herself, I am thrilled at the opportunity to work on this tutoring platform. I firmly believe that education is the key to unlocking endless opportunities, and my dedication to helping students stems from my genuine desire to make a positive impact on their lives. My favorite subjects to tutor are STEM and language based topics, and my love for these subjects is deeply rooted in their ability to foster critical thinking, problem-solving, and creativity. I find great satisfaction in guiding students through the intricacies of these subjects, helping them build a strong foundation and confidence in their abilities. I believe that a deep understanding of these subjects leads to academic success and empowers students to approach challenges with a resilient and analytical mindset. I firmly believe in creating a supportive and interactive learning environment where students feel comfortable expressing their thoughts and asking questions. I strive to tailor my teaching approach to the individual needs and learning styles of my students, ensuring that each session is engaging and productive. I encourage active participation, fostering a collaborative atmosphere where students are motivated to explore, inquire, and learn.

I first started tutoring others while in high school. I casually tutored some of my friends and peers who needed help in mutual classes, such as AP Calculus, AP Stats, and AP Physics. I became more involved with formal tutoring as a member of National Honor Society. I was active in tutoring both peers in my own age group, as well as those younger than me in subjects like Calculus and Physics. After I went to college, I went back to informally tutoring some of my friends in classes that we were taking together or that I had already taken. Some of these classes included general chemistry and some organic chemistry, as well as calculus and statics and dynamics in biological systems. At my university, I am getting back into formal tutoring by becoming a teaching assistant for a biology lab/lecture that I took in the past and did well in. I have always enjoyed trying to help others understand subjects that are more difficult to grasp. I believe I have a good understanding of effective teaching methods. I believe that the best ways to learn material are through practicing problems, through making sure each component of a problem is understood, and through methods such as mnemonic devices.I am currently an undergrad at Stony Brook University. I am a Biomedical Engineering major on a cellular and molecular track. When I am not in school and have free time, I enjoy fishing, playing and watching hockey, and catching up and spending time with friends.

I am a graduate of Gettysburg College with a B.A. in English and Theatre, SUNY Stony Brook with a M.F.A. in Dramaturgy and Dowling College with a M.S. in Secondary English. I spend 11 years as Associate Artistic Director for a Long Island based theatre company as well as Adjunct Assistant Professor at Dowling College in the Theatre Department. I have a passion for English literature as well as its historical implications. As a creative professional in both theatrical endeavors and educational pursuits, I will be guided by my values and shall give it my interest, my enthusiasm, my passion, and most importantly, myself. In everything I do I will present materials in a clear, interesting and innovative way, ensuring each student individually to help them take center stage and achieve academic goals. In my free time I enjoy catching up with favorite television shows or films, bowling, as well as acting in or directing theatrical productions.

I am a sophomore at Stony Brook University studying biology and on the pre-med track. I've always been very passionate when it comes to helping people! I have no problem accommodating or tailoring my methods to one's needs in order for them to gain confidence in the material they need to succeed. I find that a comfortable environment leads to ideal learning and I'm excited to build strong relationships and trust with my tutees.

I earned my bachelor's degree in chemical engineering, then worked in the computer database software industry as a pre-sales engineer, consultant, trainer, and quality assurance engineer. Consulting in several industries gave me broad exposure to real-world problems and a work ethic that may serve as a role model. I learned to listen to problems and come up with creative and practical solutions. As a trainer and pre-sales engineer, I co-wrote a tutorial, created class materials, and made many technical presentations about "leading edge" software, and so became skilled at explaining complex concepts. My work in QA reinforced my obsession with quality and gave me a good eye for seeing and diagnosing errors, which applies to student errors and misunderstandings.I have tutored on and off since my college days, in math, science and ESL. I approach tutoring with a positive attitude, a good ear for listening, patience, respect, and humor. I have a bias toward deep understanding rather than rote memorization.

I am currently completing my fourth year of the B.A. / M.A. Combined Program in English and the Teacher Preparation Program at Stony Brook University. With a strong background in literature, composition, and teaching methods, I believe that I am prepared for the dynamic and exciting challenges of tutoring students for their English classes. Through my coursework, I have designed lesson plans based on the Common Core State Standards. During my field experience in diverse Long Island school districts, I observed engaging lessons and had the privilege of observing the administration and grading of the English Regents Exam. As President and Co-Founder of the Stony Brook Book Club, I led weekly discussions and created a comfortable and intellectually stimulating environment. As a teaching assistant in the Massapequa Public Schools Summer Music Program, I taught students new skills and concepts while encouraging their continued growth. I believe that every student can find a book he enjoys and with the right practice, can express himself through writing. I love to read, bake, and scrapbook in my spare time.
