Alette

ACT English Tutor • +46 Subjects

I am a 2015 graduate of Texas Christian University with a double major in Economics and Political Science. I am currently an Associate Account Executive for Crystal & Company in the Employee Benefits department. While I was a student, I worked for 2 years as an in-home tutor for kids grades 6-12 and focused on study skills, organization and assistance with homework in math, English and Spanish and SAT preparation. During the fall of 2014 I worked with the TCU Athletics Department where I help the TCU Student-Athletes with Calculus and Economics. I enjoy tutoring both Math and English/writing because I am an analytical thinker and like to encourage students to challenge themselves and reach new goals. I was a Dean's List student for 6 semesters and have been awarded the Priscilla Tate research prize for Women and Gender studies at TCU as well as 2015 Texas A&M Outstanding Undergraduate Research prize for the Project for Equity.Outside of work, I enjoy watching college football, being active outdoors and spending time with my friends. My experience as a tutor has helped me learn how to cater to different learning styles and has taught me how to approach issues from different angles. I am both prompt and professional and would love to help your child grow into a successful student.

Mary Kate

3rd Grade Science Tutor • +15 Subjects

I am currently a senior at Seton Hill University and am pursuing a degree in early elementary (preK-4) and special education (preK-8). During my studies at Seton Hill, I have had many tutoring and teaching experiences. I recently finished a tutoring practicum, in which I helped third-fifth grade students in whatever subject they were working on. Along with the tutoring practicum, I also completed many teaching practicums in various school districts. In the past few years, I have had the opportunity to assist with an exceptional needs dance class in which I helped the girls master their dance moves as well as express themselves through movement. I am currently completing the student teaching portion of my major and plan to graduate this upcoming May. Aside from teaching experience, I had worked for two summers at the YMCA day camp where I learned many teaching and management strategies for collaborating with students. I tutor any elementary level subject as well as any special education. However, my favorite subjects to tutor are math and English! When I'm not studying or learning how to be a teacher, I like anything to do with sports. My favorite sport teams are the Steelers, Pirates, and the USA men's soccer team, but any type of sport will do. I love the competitive nature and good fun that sports bring. My favorite sport to play is volleyball. Along with watching and playing sports, I enjoy working out and going on a nice run through the park, reading a good book, strumming guitar, or anything that has to do with hanging out with my family and friends! Hope to meet you soon!

Joseph

AP English Language and Composition Tutor • +20 Subjects

I graduated from high school at Fordham Preparatory School in 2010 and am currently taking a semester off before my final year at the Macaulay Honors College at CUNY Brooklyn. I am working towards two bachelors degrees: a BFA in Creative Writing and a BA in Psychology.My first tutoring experience was in my senior year of high school during which I tutored juniors who wanted extra help preparing for the AP Language and Composition exam, which I had taken the previous year. In college I have helped students struggling with general essay-writing and specific English courses—mainly writing-intensive courses but in some cases literature classes as well. I have tutored students, including some non-native speakers, who struggled with essay-writing and grammar, syntax, and usage issues.My favorite subject to tutor was definitely AP Language and Composition mostly because of my interest in the subject itself. A lot of students know how to write a good essay but really struggle with this particular AP material because it requires you to take a step back and dissect the specific methods and structures at play in a given passage presented at random. Being able to put one's finger on the precise rhetorical methods that go into a strong piece of writing is really an enlightening experience.As far as my personal tutoring style, I prefer to provide students with the guidance and practice necessary to understand each individual facet of a given subject until they feel completely comfortable with the material on their own. I find it very important to avoid overwhelming students with the big picture of something like an SAT or AP exam and prefer to break down the material into manageable pieces which, once mastered, will allow the student to excel at the subject as a whole.Besides my academic pursuits, I enjoy going to shows for local bands in Manhattan and Brooklyn, and I participate in a bi-monthly poetry reading presented by a group with whom I workshop my personal writing projects. I spend a decent amount of time reading poetry and fiction when left to my own devices, but I also have a weakness for television and may just as likely be found catching up on reality shows.
