...Africa. Nowadays, I work with a theatre company called Grey Room NYC and a non-profit organization called Leave Out Violence. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, playing and watching basketball (Go Bulls!), enjoying funny television shows (Louie is my favorite), and playing music (guitar & piano). I consider myself blessed to have a creative mind and spirit; I always endeavor to bring this creativity into anything I do. I am a big proponent of...

Hello! I am studying political science and statistics, and I will be working in finance after graduation. I also have strengths in Spanish (I studied abroad in Spain), standardized tests, and test taking and organization skills. In my free time I love to run, spend time with friends, and travel. I actually think standardized tests are fun and I would love to help you learn to feel that way too.... I believe that students should be...

...the opportunity to find what I am passionate about, and I hope to help others gain that same opportunity through tutoring. I tutor in English, French, and standardized tests, and especially enjoy helping students think about subjects creatively and from new angles. My largest interest, outside of education, is music. I worked throughout college as a music director at Wesleyan's radio station, and currently work as a producer and staff writer for Afropop Worldwide, a...

...to be somewhere or do something that I have not yet achieved. I believe it is this drive that allows me to pursue my passions, both academically and socially, and to be successful in both. I find that my greatest happiness comes in the form of little victories such as a good grade on an exam, or making a friend laugh! Its because of this that I really slow down and try to appreciate every...

...subjects that are challenging to them. As an Intervention Specialist I work in a K-5 school where I work with small groups of students that need additional support in English/Language Arts and Math. Additionally, I especially have a love for literature and reading and have aspirations to become a children's/ young adult author. I am also a published poet and plan on pursuing further publications in the future. The feeling I get when I am...

...passionate about tutoring in high school, when I would assist other students in mathematics. I also have experience working with elementary school students in a bilingual New York City public school. One of the aspects of tutoring that I always look forward to is when students are able to confidently join their peers. In order to succeed in math, I approach each problem as a puzzle, and I encourage my students to try this out.

...high school before going on to teach my college team, as well as wedding dances to private couples. I am also a freelance writer and am working on learning a fourth language, Spanish. In my observation, languages and writing skills are poorly taught in many schools, leaving students frustrated and unprepared for further learning. The improvement I see in my students, however, is immensely rewarding. With a little guidance, everyone has the ability not only...

...at the University of St Andrews. I am working towards a Bachelor of Arts in English and International Relations. While I am interested in a wide range of subjects, I am most passionate about English and Literature. I am a firm believer in the power of education, and believe that it can be simple to make learning fun. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, traveling, and seeing my friends and family.

...hardworking and ambitious by all my professors, I have received great recommendations from them. I have been tutoring Mathematics to my peers and juniors ever since high school. I am confident that I am a good tutor, since my friends always come to me for help in Algebra, PreCalc and Calculus since they regard my teaching style as easy and interesting. However, I would like to add that I am a pusher- I push myself...

...the new generation to understand. People have trust in me, and thus seek out my help for guidance and direction. Because of my education and background, I believe that I have the capabilities in spreading my philosophy on keeping ones own finances in order and directing people to invest in a better future. I also want to pursue personal accounting for kids and adults who still feel as though they require more time and better...

...everyone has a writer within, and unlocking that potential is one of my favorite experiences. Working in the rigorous educational environment of South Korea gave me experience helping students prepare for standardized tests of all kinds--and I know how students feel, because I recently took the GRE. I love to teach and I love to learn--and I want all my students to feel the same way. When students have a good time learning, they learn...

...students of the Bronx Community College and Operations Management students of Baruch College and the Cornell Graduate School. Whether statistics, management or psychology majors, or new freshmen, they usually are able to grasp the "grammar rules" of a linear algebra problem before I proceed to formally state the theorem to be applied. While I continue today with my research work on probability models and my full-time college teaching, I enjoy guiding high school or older...

...students preparing to apply to colleges. I've also been tutoring math to a grammar school student on an ongoing basis (2 years). I try to listen carefully to a student to determine what gives them difficulty or anxiety. I find it most important to instill confidence in the student through methodical study of the subject matter and verbal encouragement. A lack of confidence at test time can be devastating. I watch a student solve problems...

...seven years. During that time, I combined my writing with my love of travel by backpacking through Europe, the Middle East, and Asia and writing about my adventures. I am currently working on a book about my experiences in the Middle East. My favorite part of teaching is identifying each student’s interests and challenges and then working together to build on their strengths, work creatively on their challenges, and achieve their goals. The greatest reward...

...Upward Bound High School summer camp which gave me priceless knowledge and experience on what the high school students are interested in learning and what their strength and limitations are, thus I can address their questions and concerns accordingly. From 2012 to present, I have been a GRE and SAT math teacher helping students learn and improve their math (calculus, geometry, trigonometry, algebra), science subjects (physics, biology and chemistry) and developing their knowledge and skills...

...Holyoke. I also worked for the University Writing Center. Working with students one-on-one, informed by faculty guidance and frequent workshops, I developed a tutoring style that focuses on collaboration and flexibility. No matter the subject, I believe that we learn best when we discover for ourselves, and forget when we are lectured. I spend my spare time reading, writing, talking, listening, and trying to stay active, so that I can read, write, talk, and listen...

...two years in working with students with learning disabilities. My preferred subjects are history, literature, reading comprehension, and writing, and I can tutor verbal sections for standardized tests including the GRE. My favorite subject, you may have guessed, is history, but I also have a long personal history learning foreign languages, and I feel that this contributes to my skill in teaching English reading comprehension. When I'm not teaching students or sitting in a library,...

...I am a high school mathematics teacher. I have been teaching for roughly 9 years (4 years college, 5 years high school). At the high school level I have taught Algebra, Algebra II, AP Calculus, and SAT Math. I am currently teaching solely Geometry because that is my only requirement right now. I have taught an Applied Algebra course on the college level and have tutored Statistics as well. In addition to the previous, I...

...it moving forward. I encourage my students to think, question, and dive deep. Through time management, a hunger for knowledge, and a plan of attack, anything is possible. I have extensive training as an actor, musician, and dancer and have performed on and off Broadway in numerous shows. I use the skills and knowledge I have honed as a performer to help shape the narrative of each lesson and present information in a fun, memorable,...
