I believe students will learn best by practicing themselves while I help guide...

I am a highly enthusiastic tutor with a keen interest in teaching students with the learning style that maximizes their learning potential. I aim to not only raise your child's grades but also foster characteristics of an independent learner to ensure their future academic success.

As a tutor and aspiring teacher, I believe that all students have the capacity to learn, though each processes information differently. My goal is to assist my students in identifying their personal learning style(s) and use this knowledge to build their confidence and academic skills. I intend to personalize lessons so that students can view learning as a valuable opportunity rather than as a chore.... All people have the ability to learn and grow. It is...

...Angeles but currently working on a BA at New York University on a full scholarship. I specialize in test prep, writing help, and middle/high school mathematics. I believe it is crucial to approach learning through the lens of familiar subjects, rather than diving into something new without any relation to it; the mind is only able to absorb new information on basis of past experience. In the same way, I approach my students not as...

...and comprehension of the texts they read. This is something close to my heart because I love reading. I believe reading allows us to travel to a different world. We get to experience the world through the books we read. I am a firm proponent of equity in education. While I believe equality is important, providing students with what they need to be successful is much more important to me. Every student is different and...

...While I will definitely sympathize with students, that does not take away from my firm belief that growth is 100% possible with dedicated effort. I will aim to foster a positive and (hopefully fun) tutoring environment, and am really excited to work with students of all ages. Outside of school, I spend my time reading, watching sports, and cooking whenever possible (but I'm not sure how qualified I am to tutor in the culinary arts).

...I can provide tremendous assistance tutoring everything from ACT prep to Shakespeare and existential philosophy. My learning background is diverse, and my objective-based tutoring style is sure to lead to success. When we tackle problems, we are learning the how? and why?, not just the what? I aim to develop skills that the student can carry forward in his or her academic life, and my measured goal-setting will help student and tutor remain highly-motivated and...

...of reading and writing. I also enjoyed math as a young kid and enjoy tutoring in that subject area as well. I am a strong believer in teaching students at their own pace. When it's one-on-one time, I make sure that we start with material that the student feels comfortable with to build on their level of confidence, which is an attribute that rarely gets enforced in a large classroom setting. Identifying a student's mastery...

...on-camera host and interviewer, of which I would like to delve more into to help young teens and millenial adults. I have always believed that education is power. With an early love of reading and writing, I have witnessed the power that words can have on people, especially if used in a positive manner.

I believe strongly in helping students develop their confidence and opening them up to their own potential...

I specialize in creative writing, religion and religious history, and research of all types. I also teach swim lessons, so in between essays I can teach you how to do a proper backstroke, or even CPR! I love working with people of all...

...a lifelong learner coincidentally paved the way to my current position as a middle school dance teacher in Harlem. I considered myself "undeclared" both in my freshmen year of college and my freshmen year of real life.

I have experience working as a teaching assistant at Harvard Graduate School of Design and as a elementary school tutor at...

I also graduated from City College with an M.S. in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL). After graduation, I began to teach ESL as an Adjunct Instructor in Canal Street. Languages are amazing because they are pieces (letters, sound, words) that students need to put together to use in practice. I love...
