...Math (up through Algebra I), and standardized test preparation. I especially like tutoring Spanish, literature, and history. I really enjoy tutoring because I get to help people and I love learning! I believe that it is easiest to learn when we can make personal connections with what we are studying, so I seek out ways to connect the learning to your experiences. I also believe that learning is more effective when it is fun and...

...have spent years mastering this skill. My interests, outside of teaching, include sports, music, and international work. I personally understand the everyday challenges that student athletes must overcome and I can tailor my approach to best fit their academic needs. On top of sports, I have spent my entire life learning either the piano, guitar, or ukulele. I traveled to Italy and spent two weeks there to sing for the Pope. I recently completed a...

...have been put into a crucible of exam preparation. I always do well on standardized exams. Since I have done so many of these types of exams I have learned many tactics and strategies to achieve high scores. I am particularly good at tutoring students for standardized exams such as the SHSAT, ISEE, SSAT, SAT, ASVAB, GRE, and so forth. I've also provided consultation for students applying for schools and have helped students with their...

...bike (both mountain and road). Nearly anything that will get me outside, I'm certain to enjoy (rock climbing, hiking, backpacking). Photography is another activity I enjoy, and it goes very well with my "outdoorsy" activities by giving me a way to artistically capture the beauty around me on my hikes. Tutoring is really a great system for reinforcing learning. One-on-one interactions are difficult with how large schools are in major metropolitan areas and individual teaching...

My preferred subjects are test preparation (SAT, ACT, GRE, etc.), Math, Science, and English. ... I think it's very important that I relate to students on a personal level so they truly understand that I want them to do well. Once that bond is made, we can work together...

...India. My last quarter of college was an internship teaching ESL in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan. While I love studying literature of all genres, I feel the most impactful literary experience is one that deeply resonates with the reader, and inspires them to write their own stories. This is why I am an advocate for detailed, creative, and personal essay writing. The most powerful essay or piece of academic writing is one which is inspired by the...

...Education and community are passions of mine, and I strive to reignite a curiosity for knowledge in my students and peers. Notable positions I have held include a Success Coach for Peer Powera community centered non-profit whose goal is improving childhood education through involvement between local grade schools, universities, and corporationsand interestingly enough, a ballroom dance instructor. My academic strengths are fairly broad, with expertise in mathematics and standardized testing. A couple fun facts about...

It is my belief all students are able to achieve academic success and I work tireless to identify strategies to assist them in overcoming hurdles. I tutor a broad range of subjects and age groups. In my spare time, I enjoy traveling around the country, engaging in community art projects, walking and curling up with a good book. I am a member...

...of solving the problems. Students must be able to relate one kind of problem to the next. What are the similarities and what are the differences? What strategies can be used? There are often multiple strategies, what is the best one for the student? I truly feel that all students can grasp the concepts of mathematics to a given degree. As far as hobbies I enjoy boating, swimming, books, movies, and riding a motorcycle.... Simply put,...

I graduated from Old Dominion University with a Bachelors in Physics. I'm currently a graduate student pursuing a PhD in theoretical physics. I immensely enjoy what I do, and that passion is what fuels my tutoring style.

The most important step towards understanding problems and mastering subjects is learning the...

...in my church. I've taught in summer school and in after school programs too. I do love teaching... that's why I can't seem to leave it. These days I'm employed as a paraprofessional at Middletown High School. I spend a lot of my spare time with my grandson, Joshua, who is 13 years old and a total delight. He never fails to make me smile. He attends middle school in Glastonbury where he is an...

With my diversified working and educational background, I can help students in need of math tutoring from K to 12; all ages in need of learning Mandarin; and candidates who need counseling and tutoring before joining the US military.

I believe that every student can learn if the right approach is used. Finding the right buttons for the student to push is the real job of the tutor.... My philosophy is rather simple, but effective. I believe that students should not be spoon-fed information, but rather that they should be helped in discovering the knowledge on their own. Not only is this more interesting and exciting for them, it leads to a sense of 'ownership'...

...it looked like a ball hitting the ground, flattening a bit, bouncing up and moving forward. From then, I was fascinated by mathematics. As a tutor, I believe strongly in personal empowerment and I only lead as much as is necessary to equip the student so that eventually the student has a high degree of comprehension and the skills needed to direct his or her future learning. When I am not tutoring, I am working...

...and about 4 years of experience teaching GRE and GMAT. As far as hobbies go, I enjoy reading science fiction, classic literature, and comic books. Rock-climbing is a big thing for me, as is Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. I'm also into dancing, including salsa, bachata, zouk, swing, and Argentine tango. Also I love science! I study it every day to make sure I'm on top of the classes I teach. I look forward to seeing you soon!

...have a background in Toxicology and Public Health. I am fluent in Spanish, and have taught English as a second language. I was lucky to be able to save enough money to go study in Spain and learn more about the language and culture of some of my ancestors. I am endlessly fascinated by how the brain and body work, how the world works (physics) and how language works. I can't wait to help you...

I am a chemical and environmental engineer of long experience who has a knack for explaining science and math concepts in ways that students can understand, helping them to get the concepts. I also help students with their homework in all those areas. While my strong suit is math and science, I can also help explain concepts in English, writing, history, and social studies, as well as edit/proofread papers as needed.... While I am not expert...

...I view it as an extension of teaching. I have practiced law for over 10 years, but prior to entering law school, I taught study skills to junior high school students. Upon returning to the classroom last year, I asked myself how could I have waited so long. I absolutely adore it. I have always had a passion for working with people with disabilities, and teaching children with autism has allowed me to do that....
