I currently study computer science at New York University with scholarship. I have tutored students of varying ages on various subjects and I have found that self-studying leaves gaps in one's knowledge. I enjoy challenging myself to explain difficult concepts as simple as possible to help students succeed. My favorite subjects are math and science and my hobbies include chess, running, and swimming.

Saiful: Nassau County SHSAT course instructor
I've been tutoring professionally in homes and in institutions (NYU) for over eight years now. I have a breadth of knowledge when it comes to the SHSAT and SAT and all levels of mathematics as I am an engineer by profession. I graduated from New York University with a degree in Mechanical Engineering in 2014. Numbers are my thing :). I work at your pace where ever you may be. ... I believe anyone can learn anything if the problem at the core is addressed, and the teacher has the burden of identifying the issues at hand and delivering the solution.

The best way to learn is to correct and review mistakes. This ensures that fewer and fewer errors are made in subsequent performances. Practice and discipline will lead to perfection. Those who do not learn from their mistakes are destined to repeat them.... It's okay to make mistakes. The best students learn from their mistakes. Those that do not are destined to repeat them.
