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 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.
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!
Hard work pays off. Over the 5+ years tutoring, I have seen it happen with my students. I can help you perform your best on your math tests, whether it be the SAT or an exam in school.I graduated with a BA in philosophy, was on track to medical school, worked in a corporate setting, and am now a graduate student of theology. I have a very diverse background and a genuine interest in helping people, effectively and efficiently.
What makes me a great tutor is patience. If someone if coming to me to learn, I can explain the concepts to them as long as needed without getting frustrated. I want my students to learn! I teach virtually all high school subjects and below and am even open to teaching college curriculum courses if they fit my expertise.
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 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 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 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.

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 graduated from SUNY Maritime College in 2012 with a bachelor's degree in business, and I am now studying physics at Stony Brook University. My personal philosophy is that anything is possible when someone has a goal he or she set for herself or himself and he or she willing to put in the effort to attain that goal, even if the steps in between are difficult or not very interesting to them. That goal can be as simple as passing a single test or as big as knowing exactly what they want to do one day and working as hard as they can to achieve it. My favorite subject is Physics because I love seeing how the universe works; I also enjoy math because it's a huge part of Physics!My method is to first make sure the student knows exactly what the question is asking them to find, then break the question down into as many simple steps as needed to show the student how to progress to the right answer. Rather than perform each step for them, I prefer to guide the student from one step to the next ensuring they understand why each step is necessary before moving on to the next. Besides that, practice makes perfect!
