I've been tutoring professionally in homes and in institutions (NYU) for over eight years now.

...to improve instruction and their understanding of the community in which they teach, the school, the classroom, their students, and themselves. After all, teaching is more than something we do; it is a part of who we are. Teaching is not just a job but also a way of life. I have been a teacher my whole life. Even when I was in elementary school, I would teach my brother and cousins addition and multiplication...

I am a current MBA student at the Yale School of Management who will also be attending UCLA School of Law post-MBA. I've also enjoyed taking standardized tests and "cracking" their code; so I love getting to continue to work on this with my students.

The world is not going to end if you do not get a perfect score. A perfect score should simply be a goal to strive towards. I believe in making mistakes. 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...

...with joy or fondness. It's hard to accept that a single number, derived from hasty answers to abstract questions, can play such a huge role in your future. My own experience as test-taker and test-teacher has convinced me that as a tool for evaluating students, standardized testing has its share of flaws. But the tests aren't unfair or unbeatable; they challenge you to learn a specific language. I don't mean the fancy vocabulary you'll want...

...in Houston, TX with a Bachelor of Arts with Honors in the Study of Women, Gender, and Sexuality, and a minor in Poverty, Justice, and Human Capabilities.

...at Vanderbilt University, studying neuroscience and cognitive science in a double major, with a minor in saxophone performance. I have always had a fascination with the concept of understanding, which was a huge factor in the decision to be a neuroscience major.

I hope to share my knowledge with others and help anyone with questions and concepts... Go through their problems, and try to be patient with them to help them understand.... Teach them basic concepts and then let them try examples on their own.... Patience is vital.... Ensure they understand the concept, and motivate them.... Try a different approach until they get it. Maybe give an example first.... Go through it with them slowly.... Try to find...

...Hofstra University for the last three years. Over this time I have learned that the best way to help students is with an individualized and interactive tutoring session. I try to teach students the big picture and how different concepts come together rather than give them one answer to memorize. I use diagrams and pictures to really emphasize the importance of visual learning. As a tutor, I try to figure out why a student does...

...as an SAT and MCAT instructor. Both jobs were extremely fulfilling and being able to see tangible results, in the form of their test scores, made those jobs even more gratifying.

I take a lot of pride in guiding students to their own self-discovery that they can solve math problems or get the...

...and part of the Stern/Tisch dual degree program, getting a BS in Business and a BFA in Film and Television. I've been tutoring since my sophomore year, including over Zoom for the past year. My main focus is test prep, where I focus on "gamification." I know it sounds crazy, but test prep really can be fun, and seeing it as a game can help scores improve dramatically and make studying less of a drag!

I believe that one of the biggest flaws in education is the lack of intimacy between teachers and their pupils. Instead of teaching students en masse, a more optimal approach is to make each lesson fit for the particular student. I have carried out this philosophy while tutoring in the past and I intend to continue doing so in the present and in the future.... The exact approach to responding to difficulty learning varies based on...

...thing I'm sure of, it's that I genuinely enjoy tutoring. I'm also a "professional" student. I say this because absorbing, analyzing, and integrating knowledge from my medical courses are necessary skills for my own academic success.
