...success (whether it be small or large) is largely dependent on three factors. Planning, practice and timing (all of which falls under the umbrella of responsibility). And those are things that I target in my tutoring. So when you receive a lesson from me, you'll see that it's more than just rote section after section. It's more meaningful. Maybe you'll even learn a couple life lessons (I know I did). So take a leap of...

...The first thing I do is highlight the central theme of each chapter, then work on central idea of each paragraph and tie it together to some unique concept. This tool has helped me through regular and honors courses. It is essential to be patient in note-taking. Every idea must be cross-checked and validated. There are several references available that students can utilize. I always use outside books and websites to aid in my studies....

...Science and Business Analytics & IT. Some of the subjects I tutor are Algebra, Calculus I & II, and the SAT, but there are many more you can inquire about. I love tutoring students because I know how much a tutor can inspire a student to improve, and I hope to offer that to my own students. Some of my personal hobbies when not tutoring or studying are playing tennis and photography.

My approach to tutoring stresses deeper understanding of topics and underlying concepts, as opposed to learning just to pass test questions.

Outside of academics, in my free time, I enjoy watching movies, playing soccer, reading books, and playing video games.

Hi! I'm Steven. I'm currently an undergraduate student at Rutgers University. I have an interest in STEM, but specifically in physics and astrophysics, which are the fields I'm majoring in. In the past school year I have dedicated my time to tutoring elementary and middle school children in New Brunswick, as well as expanding the tutoring program to a local elementary school. I am eager to help any students learn and perform better in school!

I've always known I wanted to teach. Once I received my undergraduate degree in Psychology/Neuroscience, I decided to pursue a Masters degree in Education. I love working with classrooms full of students, but I also love working with people one-on-one. I find that when the tutor has a chance to zero in on and accommodate a students' individual needs and learning style, the experience becomes more productive and enjoyable for everyone involved.

It was deeply rewarding to help immigrants to the U.S. learn the English language and adapt to life in their new country.
