Award-Winning Tutors from University at Buffalo

Hello! My name is Natalie. I am currently a third year student at the University at Buffalo. I was recently accepted into the BA/MSW program and will begin graduate school for Social Work this fall. It has always been my passion to work in the human service field as I love helping others. My compassion along with my people skills are what makes me a great candidate as a tutor. I am very friendly and outgoing, along with having very high grades throughout my schooling career. I am looking forward to working with you!

I have been called a professor, a teacher, a tutor, and a coach; but I prefer to be known as an educator. In each of these roles that I've played what remains most important to me are the lessons that transcend the subject. While a passing grade or a high score is a laudable accomplishment, I believe real praise should be reserved for the process. In my view, approaching a task with integrity constitutes a greater victory than any possible result. Self-reliance, a positive attitude, the benefits of practice, being responsible: these lessons enable students to succeed in both an immediate and long-term sense. These are the lessons that will empower students to better themselves in the classroom and outside of it. If I do my job correctly, my students will come to recognize that they do not need me to accomplish what they've set out to do.I have the pedigree to teach at the highest levels. I have a doctorate in Comparative Literature, I have been an instructor at the university level for eight years, I have taught internationally, and I have assisted students of all ages in everything from physics to philosophy. It has been a great privilege to have the opportunities that I have had to develop myself within this vocation. I believe, however, that my qualifications would mean little if they were not complimented by a passionate dedication to education. I feel honored to be placed in a position to help people grow, not simply as students, but as citizens of this world.

I specialize in tutoring History subjects.

I am currently a graduate student at the University at Buffalo working on my PhD in mathematics. Before this, I obtained my master's degree from the College at Brockport, at which I spent the following two semesters teaching math courses to college students. While at the College at Brockport I spent three semesters as a math tutor in their Student Learning Center, as part of a graduate assistantship, tutoring courses such as Algebra,Precalculus, Single Variable Calculus, Multi-Variable Calculus, Statistics, and various other courses. I have also tutored students at the University at Buffalo as part of a teaching assistantship. My favorite subjects to tutor are calculus, trigonometry, and algebra. I've taught calculus courses at the college level multiple times, and I thoroughly enjoyed it each time.I believe that understanding how students learn mathematics is essential to teaching and tutoring mathematics. There are many different forms of teaching. I feel that I'm a great tutor because I try to understand how each student learns and then shape my instruction in such a way that will promote that student's understanding. I am always looking for new strategies to help captivate the interest of the students I instruct and tutor in order to help better foster learning. Learning mathematics is a process that requires active involvement, both from the tutor and the student. I continually strive to help all students reach their full potential.

Mathematics was a subject that I had struggled with during my primary and secondary education. I know how frustrating math can be, but with little encouragement and help, anyone can succeed in math.Even though my struggles with math through out the high school years, today Im a certified math teacher and tutor math. I have over 7 years of experience and I love every second of it.I specialize in Pre-Algebra, Algebra I & 2, Geometry and Test Prep (SAT and ACT Math). Every student has different needs and abilities. After assessing each student, (how they learn, what are their needs and abilities), I customize each lessons to address students needs and to build his/her confidence.

As a dedicated medical student at Wake Forest School of Medicine with a Bachelor's in Biomedical Sciences from the University at Buffalo, I am passionate about guiding students toward academic success. With over 2 years of tutoring experience, I specialize in subjects such as MCAT, ACT prep, AP English Language and Composition, and middle school English and reading. My teaching philosophy centers on creating engaging, tailored lesson plans that address individual student needs and foster confidence. I believe in making learning enjoyable and attainable, and I utilize practice questions and timed exercises to prepare students for success in standardized exams. My commitment to education is reflected in my academic achievements, including multiple gold medals in Spanish competitions. I look forward to inspiring students to reach their goals and find joy in their learning journey.

As a life-long student with a passion for learning myself, I am excited at the opportunity to share my enthusiasm and expertise in the sciences and social sciences with others. I think every student, at every level can benefit from one-on-one learning; and can excel in an active learning environment where they are comfortable asking questions and engaging with material in their own way. In particular, I have a passion for working with those who struggle to find a system of academic organization and time management that works for them, and those students who need extra help in catering studying to their style of learning. In my own experiences as I student I have benefited from trying new methods and techniques in and outside of the classroom – and I want to offer that to students who may benefit from it as well.

I am an Electrical Engineer by profession, and a teacher/mentor by passion. My hobbies are Dancing, Reading, playing Chess and teaching. I loved teaching since I was a first grader. My very first student was my little brother, who decided to continue with my tutoring from Kindergarten thru his undergraduate. Besides him, I have about 12 years of one-on-one tutoring experience.

I am an astute, highly motivated, and goal-oriented individual with successful experiences in both academia and athletics. I am also an effective communicator, who is very much excited to pass down my knowledge to students.

I'm a student just like you! I'm finishing up my Bachelors of Arts in Psychology at University at Buffalo. My passions are music, books, and traveling. I have a lot of experience studying Psychology, Spanish, Criminal Justice, English, and taking AP classes in high school like AP European History, AP English Language, and AP American History. The classes I'm most passionate in are political science classes, and Psychology. I'm super excited to work with new students! My tutoring style is very flexible. I prefer talking through the problems a student is facing to make sure the student can learn as much as possible! I have the most experience working with students in grades 4-10, but I will happily work with students of any age. I have experience teaching over Zoom from teaching internships, done over the COVID-19 pandemic.

I have a wide breadth of knowledge about engineering pedagogy, specifically mechanical engineering. I have a degree in mechanical engineering and a minor in mathematics. I would love to help you excel in your courses, and look forward to working together!

I graduated from Harry S. Truman high school in 2015. I am currently studying Chemistry at the University at Buffalo, where I am planning to obtain a Bachelor’s of Science in Chemistry. I am fairly experienced working with grade school and high school students in their math and science classes.When I was in those grades, I would assist the teacher by tutoring their students who are struggling in the class, whether that's just help with their homework or and extensive review of the material we learned in class. I also helped many of my peers prepare for the New York Regents exams. I helped them prepare for the Chemistry, Trigonometry, Geometry, and Algebra Regents. These along with basic math and science concepts are my favorite to help students because these are the subjects I excel at. These subjects interest me the most and I hope to use these subjects in my future field of work.I can teach in many ways and will always adjust my style to fit the students needs. I do tend to teach in way that allows the student to learn their own process of thinking while using me a resource if they are having trouble. I like to do this by facilitating the student through practice problems without giving any real answers. This allows the student to understand the material as well as build their confidence to tackle a problem all on their own.Outside of school, I like to do many to unwind such as go for a run or some form of exercise. I enjoy drawing, reading, and even video games. I always like to learn about new hobbies to keep me from ever being bored.

Learning is one of the most rewarding, useful, and fun things that a person can do. My goal as a tutor is not only to help students complete assigned tasks and get good grades, but also to understand why the material is important and how it can help them in life. If I can help a student to be motivated to learn, aspire to fulfill meaningful goals, and give them the tools they need to reach those goals, then I will consider the time that I have spent with them as a success.I graduated from University at Buffalo with a B.A. in Math and Economics and an M.S. in Economics with an advanced certificate in Finance. I now work at M&T Bank as a Credit Analyst. I aspire to start my own business next year.I try to put effort into improving at everything that I do because I believe that anything worth doing is worth doing well. Some of my life achievements include, being an all county 1st singles player on my high school tennis team, improving my max bench press by 35lbs in 3 months, running a marathon, climbing a mountain, clearing a 40 feet long ski jump, ranking in the top 10 players in upstate NY in a video game, getting a job in my field immediately after college, being chosen to lead a project at work even though I am one of the newest people there, completing 3 college degrees in 5 years with a high GPA, working at least part time every year since I was in 10th grade, and ranking 1st every week in location accuracy and pulls per week as a backroom team member at Target. I am currently independently learning coding through codecademy.com and freecodecamp.com and am in the process of creating my own website.These things all resulted from the common theme of focused effort and a clear mindset for improvement. Improvement happens when you try to do something, fail, figure out what you're doing wrong, and try to fix it. Everyone can improve at everything if they stay focused, adapt their improvement methods, and try again. It's never too late. Some things take more time than others, but everything is achievable. If you have an idea of what you want to accomplish in the future, start now and you'll be much more likely to get to where you want to be.

I began tutoring when I was a college sophomore, as a way to reinforce my own coursework. I quickly realized what an enjoyable and rewarding experience being a tutor can be, and I have tried to include teaching in my weekly routine ever since. I believe that every student has the capacity to fully grasp any subject that they put their mind to, and it is the job of the tutor to discover the right way to frame and phrase the material at hand so that it can stick. Each student represents a unique challenge, and every improvement is an accomplishment shared between the tutor and the student. I truly enjoy helping others in their studies, and I appreciate the opportunity to improve my own understanding at the same time.I graduated from the State University of New York at Buffalo with a BS in both Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering, and most of my experience has come from tutoring other students at the same school. My favorite topics to teach have been college-level math and science courses, as well as beginning engineering courses. I like to continually reinforce the fundamentals that I have used in higher-level courses and in industry, and I enjoy discussing the applications of those fundamentals with students who may not have seen them before. I have also spent some time tutoring middle and high school math and science, and that has been a rewarding experience as well..

I earned my Master of Education in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL) from the University at Buffalo in New York. I also hold a Bachelor of Arts in English Education from Inha University in Incheon, South Korea. To further specialize in Korean language instruction, I completed the Korean Language Teachers Training Program for Foreigners at the Language Education Institute of Seoul National University in February 2010. Additionally, I was awarded the Certificate of Korean Language Teacher by the Korean government on February 7, 2014, which formally qualifies me to teach Korean as a second language.

I graduated from the University of Buffalo with a Bachelor's in Social Interdisciplinary Sciences/Psychology and a Master's in Early Childhood/Childhood Education. I am a motivated and personable person with a positive track record for punctuality and attendance. I have experience working with both children and adults. I currently teach middle school math and science.

Sophomore enrolled at State University of New York at Buffalo in the Accounting program. From Long Island, New York. Looking to tutor students in math related courses. In high school i was in accelerated math and have a very good understanding on math as a subject.

I was born and raised in Seoul, South Korea until I moved to the U.S. at the age of 19 to attend the State University of New York at Buffalo (University at Buffalo). I received my Bachelor of Arts in Media Study with a focus on Film & TV Production. Before graduating, I started my own film production company, where I've created music videos for various artists and commercials for such brands as Nike and Lotus Cars. I have also taught English in South Korea for two years. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about Korean, and Filmmaking. I truly believe learning a language should be approached with the right amount of academia and the hands-on experience; I will provide a practical environment where students can learn the Korean culture, history, and expressions that they can't learn from the books. As I am extremely knowledgable in Entertainment industry both in America and South Korea, the entire class could be taught in Korean with such topics as K-CULTURE, K-POP, K-Drama, and K-Beauty. In my spare time, I enjoy working out, watching movies, and playing board games.

Hey there,I am a recent graduate from the University at Buffalo receiving my bachelors in biological sciences. I have been tutoring for the past 13 years since I was a freshman in High School. My passion in life is sharing knowledge with the people around me. I hope to obtain my PhD in a few years in genetics. The human genome is a vast ocean of enigmas and finding out what precisely does what can help make great strides with future healthcare.Currently I tutor in Algebra 1 and 2, and of course Biology. With me as a tutor I hope to connect with my students about how easy the work can become with a little practice. Not all students are the same and thankfully there are many ways I can help the students excel with a little hard work. One of the greatest feelings I get is when you explain the subject to a student and they have this look of "I get it". It just shows the passion one puts into the work he or she does."I see now that the circumstances of one's birth are irrelevant. It is what you do with the gift of life that determines who you are." -Mewtwo

To bridge the gap between confusion and knowledge through novel approaches which aim to make mundane material easy to grasp to anyone. I have a background in Finance and accounting, a masters in supply chain, and have completed an MBA.

If you are a student who requires patience and understanding along with subject knowledge then I am a tutor for you. My teaching and tutoring experience is extensive as I have taught many subjects in the business and English world. My experience also includes the establishing and maintaining of several business ventures so that my knowledge of the American business scene is not just book learning.My favorite subject to tutor is in the humanities, especially in religion. I find that students add a perspective to the belief systems that is unique and often challenging. My own education included many humanities courses, along with history and social sciences, and was completed in New York state.I am comfortable working with students of all ages and in all subjects, and I hope to help students achieve comfort, confidence, and peace of mind within their studies.

My mission is to inspire life long learning as well as to give you the tools to discover your capacity for academic success and happiness.

I am an enthusiatic Nurse by trade and have extensive experience working as a writing tutor through college. My first love in life is education, so working as a tutor seemed like the right course of action to augment my studies to become a Family Nurse Practitioner and my Doctorate in Nursing. I look forward to working with you to achieve your goals as I work toward mine!

I graduated from Binghamton State University in 2010 with a B.S. in Biology and a B.A. in Spanish. After completing my undergraduate studies, I moved back closer to home and continued on with Romance Languages and Literature Studies in graduate school. In 2012, I received my M.A. Degree from St. John's University, Queens, NY. Since 2012, I have been working toward a Ph.D. in Spanish at the University at Buffalo. At the University at Buffalo, I worked for 5 years as a Spanish language instructor to undergraduate students. This upcoming academic year I will be teaching Spanish in a private high school in Queens, New York.In terms of my teaching experience, I have also familiarized myself with Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) through teaching pedagogy courses as well as numerous pedagogical workshops. CLT has oriented my teaching toward a more daily, real-life usage of the language, while reducing its sometimes overwhelming grammatical load.

During college, I always enjoyed working with fellow students in learning material because often each person had a different perspective on certain concepts and this allowed me to view things differently which I always found quite helpful during school. As I moved to graduate school I took on teaching assistant roles in various courses. I found that working through problems with students was a very rewarding part of my graduate studies. This enjoyment lead me to pursue academics and I have been a tenured associate professor for almost 6 years teaching mostly in the Department of Chemistry at my College. I have taught various disciplines of chemistry including health professions related chemistry, general chemistry, upper level quantitative chemistry as well as the associated laboratory materials found in these courses. I look forward to sharing my knowledge in these subjects and hope I can provide you with the right guidance to excel in you studies.

I obtained my BA in History from the Honors College at the University at Buffalo and a Masters Degree in Education from D'Youville College. I am finishing my certification in E-Learning from George Mason University. I have nearly a decade of experience tutoring students with seven years of full-time teaching experience at all ranges of skill, need and interest. I tutor all levels of history, political science and economics and have taught such courses at all levels. I have a particular interest in tutoring economics but welcome all students in my areas of tutoring.My tutoring style is learner-centered and rooted in forming good working relationships with the student. My goal is to raise the bar of excellence for every student pursuant to an approach that fits the needs of each student as opposed to a one size fits all approach. As for interests outside of tutoring, teaching and education, I am a big fan of movies, exercise and the outdoors.

I am also fluent in Mandarin Chinese and love working with learners from all over the world.

I am a graduate of the University at Buffalo. I received a Master of Arts in Biology. While obtaining my degree, I created and ran my own internet website businesses. I also worked as a dental assistant in hopes of one day becoming a dentist. I love helping people and making them smile, especially if they are having a difficult time learning a specific concept or idea. My friends and family always come to me for help with science and math problems because I'm patient, fun, funny, understanding, and know how to explain topics in a wide variety of ways.My teaching style is unique. I first listen to my students and learn how they like to learn, and memorize new techniques and skills. After learning about my students, I devise strategies to best fit their study habits. I relate problems to what they like (always trying to make learning fun). I give students pointers on how to learn and thrive in an academic setting.Besides science and math I love sports, music (especially the drums), and cooking. I love all professional sports including football, hockey, basketball, and baseball. I play racquetball once a week and go to the gym daily. I've played the drums and percussion my whole life, and I love cooking for my friends and family.

I want to provide students with a rich learning experience by providing them the opportunity to freely experience themselves without judgement and the chance to see practical real world applications of math!

I'm a pre-health student at the University of Pennsylvania, and have an extensive background in the sciences. I can also rock the SATs and MCAT, so I've got that going for me. I love learning with students and trying to make the tedious work of learning as fun as possible. I think and teach in examples and make abstract concepts easily understandable. I also love sports, adventures, travelling!

My goal is to help all students reach their academic goals by providing encouragement, assistance, and my professional experience in education. I believe all students should have the opportunity to perform academically to the best of their ability, given the proper tools and resources. I feel honored to guide students towards success!

I am a hard worker and a passionate person. I have always believed that we all need help sometimes and there is no greater feeling than having an eureka moment after a friend or tutor helps you understand a confusing subject.I am here to solve complex problems with simple solutions.

I am a graduate of the University of the State of New York. I received my Master's Degree in Elementary Education and I have been teaching for 22 years. My teaching experience ranges from Pre-Kindergarten through 8th grade. I taught middle school for 5 years, Kindergarten for 8 years, have been teaching Pre-Kindergarten for 9 years. I also teach summer school every year and the grades have ranged from Kindergarten to 8th grade. I believe that teaching and learning should incorporate elements of fun. It is through the fun and engagement that the children learn best. I absolutely love when I can see in a child's face that the knowledge has been gained. I am a firm believer in life-long learning. I never admit to knowing everything and will help a child to find an answer if I am unable to do so. This shows my students that I am also human. Outside of teaching and tutoring, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, kayaking, swimming, cake decorating, and drawing/painting.

Recent college graduate with a degree in Mathematics and minor in Physics from University at Buffalo. Worked as an open-room tutor for a year helping students with introductory Mathematics and Physics courses. Looking to build up on tutoring skills I gained at the university.

Hello! My name is Emily, I received my PhD from UNC Chapel Hill in the pharmaceutical sciences division of pharmacoengineering. My undergraduate degree was in cell and molecular biology. My dissertation project was focused on biomaterials, bioinformatics, and molecular biology, so I have a passion for teaching biology in a way that makes it relevant for every day life. I'm currently an R&D scientist at a small company in the research triangle.

Help others to reach their their goals and dreams through success is something very important for me not just as tutor but as a person. Learn something new some times is very difficult for some students, be patient is key to understanding how to help others.Love and light first is the success in every person.

Hi, my name is Sam! I am a student at University at Buffalo in New York currently working on a Bachelor's degree in Chemistry. I have two Associates degrees, one in Biotechnology and one in Liberal Arts: Natural Science. I began my path independently, always fascinated with the field of science. My goal is to help students recognize that their ambition can take them as far as they want and to foster an excitement for learning! I like that teaching not only helps the student, but also helps me with my own understanding of the subject.

I graduated from college quite a long time ago but my own kids, and current students too, see me as a fun person and a kid at heart. One of the hardest things for a teacher to be able to do is relate to kids and their issues. Students can easily tell if a teacher genuinely cares or is just going through the motions of teaching. All my students know I care and they give me maximum effort in return.Before I became a teacher I was actively engaged in my own children's education. I home-schooled them for many years while running my own engineering and marketing businesses from home. My own children are either in their final years of high school or in college. My children would always tell me how great I was at teaching and I should do it full time. I finally listened to them and now enjoy every day of work. I am the head of the math and science departments at a small private school in The Woodlands. It is a wonderful school but the small size has its own challenges. I am in charge of curriculum development which can be time consuming. I have to design the curriculum to be interesting, challenging, and productive. There is no one way to teach a concept. Through the use of practical examples, multimedia, specialized worksheets and study materials, the subjects are covered without the normal objections by the students. Every day we are learning but having fun while doing it.Outside of school I like to work on cars, electrical design, and fixing anything that's broken. I also like to read textbooks, watch movies, and cook for my family. I let them do the dishes though.I'm looking forward to being your childs tutor. I'll give them 100% and hopefully they will give that back in return. Since I'm experienced in curriculum design we won't be working out of just one textbook. One textbook will never work for every student. If you child is having trouble in a subject or just wants to get ahead, a multi-faceted approach to learning will have him or her attaining goals in a much shorter period of time.

I graduated from the University at Buffalo with a BA in Media Study and a minor in Chinese. After graduation I went to live and work in China teaching English, where I stayed for eight years. I taught many different levels and subjects in both private charter schools to university graduate and undergraduate classes. I have a lot of teaching and tutoring experience and am fluent in Mandarin Chinese. I look forward to working with you to help you achieve you academic dreams.
