I have tutored students in English Literature, Writing, Reading Comprehension, Economics, and math through Pre-Calculus ever since I was in high school, and also provide tutoring for college entrance exams (SAT, ACT). I work hard with my students to instill the confidence needed to succeed while building deep, intuitive understandings of key concepts that are critical for success. During my teaching sessions I try to use engaging and amusing examples to illustrate the subject, with a keen understanding that learning is most fruitful when student and teacher are enjoying themselves. I also try to provide students with effective study habits and exercises that can maximize the time between sessions and help achieve the best results they are capable of - and my belief is that every student is capable of far more than he or she thinks! While not teaching I can generally be found in the living room of my apartment reading or scribbling in notebooks in various coffee shops around New York.
