I am a student at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute working towards a degree in Business Analytics with a minor in Computer Science. I first started tutoring when I was in high school and started a robotics club that taught computer programming and problem solving skills to elementary and middle school students. I tutor in any math, science, and computer science fields. I am also open to tutoring for students taking the ACT or SAT.

...All of methods and study habits I teach my students are ones I have personally used and found to work, either in test prep or in math, science, and engineering courses. In addition to tutoring, I am always more than happy to give no nonsense advice to any student interested in going to engineering school. I look forward to getting to know you and passing on my experience and knowledge to help you accomplish whatever...

...I love working with others to help improve understanding in these subjects. My teaching style is very inclusive and involves extensive collaboration between me and the student. My main focus is on material comprehension and application of the material so that students are very comfortable answering a wide range of questions. In my spare time, I love playing tennis, snowboarding, and hiking or just curling up next to the fireplace and reading a book!

...learn how to solve problems, but also to think critically. Consequently, my personal approach to teaching involves delving into the deep foundational ideas of basic topics. By building a strong base, students will be able to solve more difficult problems critically and effectively even if they run into a problem that they have not encountered before. I hope to instill curiosity and a basic intuition about physical sciences in all of my students, and I...

...our new home (LOTS OF WORK) and nannying two delightful young girls as I've been job searching. These have been rewarding experiences but I do miss the academic world. In college, I was constantly doing study sessions with my younger friends to help them in classes that I'd already taken it. I found it rewarding to help my friends but also a great way to keep myself fresh in these classes. I've usually found that...

...As the oldest of four children, I understand how difficult learning (and teaching) new material can be, and I am willing to diligently work with students to overcome their learning obstacles. Through my teaching experiences, I have found great joy in watching both kids and adults grow and excel as students. I have had experience teaching violin, Chinese, English, swimming, writing, and cell biology, and I'm very excited to expand this list. By continuing to...

I'm a recent graduate from RIT in biomedical engineering. I have experience tutoring both elementary and high school students. A variety of teaching tools were especially useful during my education. Discovering the best method for learning is vital and I'll work to ensure my students are able to pinpoint their tools for success.

...to many students and math trauma is very real. Part of the work in tutoring anyone in any subject that has chronically been difficult for them, is to facilitate the healing, in addition the education, that is necessary for mastery of the subject. I have considerable experience also with students from many neurodivergent backgrounds, primarily those on the autism spectrum. Part of my innovative curriculum design also accounts for neurodivergent needs of the students and...

...I have a fairly laid back approach to tutoring, with first establishing a baseline with each student and then working to improve the student overall, with focusing on the critical points first. I am most interested in tutoring technical subjects (math or sciences) or preparing for exams. I have taken the SAT, GRE, AP exams and a variety of subject tests. However, i would also work with students in whatever subject needs to be covered...

Hi! My name is Nithya Gutta and I'm currently an undergrad microbiology major and I'm a premed. I've been accepted into medical school at 17 years old and currently in a joint medical program. I've been tutoring since high school and I love sharing my knowledge and helping other students.

I enjoy spending my time to aid students and others in taking their time to problem solve and find ways to critically think. I value the ability to learn and widen one's ability to think outside the box than to be given the answers.

...fascinating to me. When I teach I focus on giving simple explanations and analogies regardless of how complicated a topic is. When tutoring I usually give some background on the subject and show an example problem. Then I ask my students to solve a similar problem and after they develop confidence we move on. As someone who has needed tutoring in the past, I understand what it means to struggle when learning material and thats...
