I am a native Spanish speaker and began learning English as a second language after graduating from college in Mexico City. I completed a full English course from Basic through TOEFL exam training. Then, I started an intensive course of Italian at Mexico Citys Istituto Italiano di Cultura, where I was a scholarship recipient. Gaining fluency in these two languages as an adult helped me to learn highly efficient language training methods that I have used in turn with private students in English, Spanish, and translation work. In New York, I also began studying French and German, including courses at the Alliance Franaise and the Deutsches Haus, at New York University. In 2008, I earned a Master's Degree in Music from Brooklyn College, City University of New York.As a Music major, I find the music learning process extremely useful for languages and I would apply many of the methods musicians use into the improvement and refinement of languages when tutoring.

Learning is a life long process but we can better equip our students for their journey.I am a Certified NYC English Educator (gr.7-12). I graduated from Brooklyn College with a BA in English Education and Philosophy. I have been studying for standardized tests and SATs since 3rd grade.I have taught various grades ranging from 2nd grade to 12th grade in Math and English (Reading and Writing ). I have done private in-home tutoring for about 4-5 years and in a group setting for about 2 years.

I am currently a senior at CUNY Brooklyn College working towards a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology with a minor in Children and Youth Studies. I work in the field of Applied Behavior Analysis with children who have an Autism Spectrum Disorder. I have experience tutoring students in elementary and middle school in a variety of subjects, but the subjects I have worked with most are English, Writing, and Math. I have worked as an after school counselor where a portion of each day was dedicated to assisting students with homework and often leading the class in completing assignments and problems that presented challenges. My favorite subject to tutor is Math because I struggled with Math from elementary school through High School. If it were not for tutoring, I would not have been able to grasp certain concepts on my own; a part of my philosophy in tutoring and in life is to use my experiences with challenges and learning to help other people reach a goal; for instance, using techniques I learned receiving math tutoring to help a student struggling in the same area. I believe it is important for students to understand their capability to solve a problem – my tutoring style involves an interactive approach in which I work from the bottom up with students, allowing them to express what they do understand first, before tackling that which might be confusing; I believe the confidence in knowing what you can do is important when learning to accomplish what you think you can’t do. A few of my interests outside of tutoring and working with children are playing my bass guitar, dancing, stepping, and playing with my dog! I am a member of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. and also enjoy putting on programs and participating in community service with my chapter.

I have been tutoring students of all ages for almost a decade. Working one on one and in small groups is something I am very comfortable with, and something I enjoy. I work with each student to find individual strategies to improve.

I have been a teacher for 15 years. After graduating with a Bachelors Degree in Literature from Hawaii Pacific University, I went on to work in the professional training sector in London, designing an online training course for new recruiters. Then I returned stateside and earned my Masters Degree in Secondary English Education from Brooklyn College and have been a certified NYS teacher since. I see life as a never-ending opportunity to learn new things and conquer new challenges, and you have to be able to laugh at yourself along the way. In my teaching, I try to instill that joy and adventure of learning in everything I do with my students.

I am an international educator with over sixteen years of experience teaching and coaching in IB schools across the United States, the UAE, China, and Panama. I hold a Master's in Education, a Master's in Sociology, and certifications in General Education, Special Education, ESL, and the Science of Teaching Reading in New York and Texas. I am also trained and certified in the IB PYP and MYP and have served as an IB Coordinator and Instructional Coach supporting teachers, leaders, and students. I specialize in IB tutoring (PYP/MYP inquiry skills, assessments, literacy, and social sciences), academic coaching, organizational skills, reading and writing support, and preparation for NY and TX teacher certification exams. I also provide structured test-prep support with a focus on strategy, confidence building, and skill mastery. My teaching philosophy centers on clarity, structure, and individualized learning paths. I help students develop strong thinking routines, independence, and the academic habits that lead to long-term success. Whether supporting a struggling reader, guiding an IB student through complex concepts, or coaching an adult learner preparing for certification exams, I create high-quality, targeted sessions that are both supportive and results-driven. Outside of teaching, I enjoy writing, travel, and design of which expand my global perspective and enrich the learning experiences I create. My goal is always to help learners grow with confidence, curiosity, and purpose.

I have been teaching for over thirty-five years and have enjoyed every moment. To me, education is not just about learning facts and passing exams, it is also about becoming a life-long learner. It is about using knowledge to improve one's life both personally and professionally. There are skills which need to be mastered and this is one important element of education. I also believe that education can improve one's enjoyment of life regardless of the occupation or field of study one pursues.I am especially proficient in the areas of essay writing and editing, proofreading, and the mechanics of grammar and usage. I have extensive experience in helping students prepare for standardized tests such as the SAT. I have also taught AP English and I am very familiar with the requirements of the AP Exam.

I am a patient and encouraging tutor who focuses on making learning clear, engaging, and confidence building. I work with elementary school students in English, math, and science, and I adapt my teaching style to match each child's pace and learning style. I believe strong foundations are key, so I break concepts down in a simple and supportive way while helping students build independence and self trust. My goal is to create a calm space where students feel comfortable asking questions and proud of their progress. I also offer French and introductory marketing support, bringing creativity and real world thinking into lessons when appropriate. I am reliable, attentive, and genuinely invested in helping each student succeed.

MA in History and BA in Psychology, with 3 years as a writing tutor and 2 years as a philosophy tutor at Brooklyn College. I tutor U.S. History, World History, Big History, social studies, writing, ESL, philosophy, and psychology. I adapt to what works for you, instructional or conversational, and help you understand facts and ideas, build strong papers, and grasp the bigger picture.

I have a holistic view in terms of tutoring and teaching. All students learn in different ways such as visually, kinetically, auditorily, and other ways. I am committed to finding the best way to help my student learn the material even if it means going above and beyond the call of duty.Personally, I am a Psychology and Gender Studies double major graduating in May 2017. After that, I will be attending a masters program in mental health counseling and eventually going on to get my doctorate in clinical psychology.My skills include time management, test-taking skills, writing aid, reading comprehension, verbal and reading skills, and test preparation.

Tutoring has always been more than just helping students complete assignments or prepare for exams. To me, it is about creating a supportive environment where students feel encouraged, understood, and confident in their ability to learn. I enjoy working closely with students, helping them overcome challenges, strengthen their skills, and realize their potential both academically and personally.

Each pinnacle in my life has offered a new perspective, and inspiration to seek higher ground. My journey through the arts, education, and health advocacy has given me a unique skill set that continues to evolve, and has illumined my life's mission- To discover and share insights that are creative, well-rounded, and sustainable, for the greater good of my immediate and world community.

Mathematics is a fundamental tool for understanding and exploring the real world.

I am highly dedicated to child development. I believe that all children can learn and children learn best through modeling and guided practice. The following are some of my qualifications.I currently hold a Master's degree in Childhood Special Education for student with learning disabilities, and a double BA from Brooklyn College in Childhood General Education and Psychology. I graduated with honors from both institutions. I have tutored a second grade student as part of the Hunter College Learning Lab. In this program, I was responsible for assessing and teaching a special needs student. I assessed the student using various methods, including the Qualitative Reading Inventory, and DIBELS. Based on the results of the assessments I designed a program to target the student's needs. I have also taught fifth grade for three months as a part of student teaching, as well as 2nd and 3rd grade for two years at a Yeshiva in Brooklyn. I have also taught as a substitute teacher for School Professionals. I am currently working for Lefferts Gardens Charter School as a 1st grade special education teacher. In these positions I am responsible for creating interactive lessons in English language Arts, Mathematics, Social Studies, and Science. In addition, I implemented positive reinforcement system to help with classroom management and reward good behavior. I am detail oriented and am proficient in Word, Power Point, Excel, and SmartBoard. I am currently certified to teach general and special education, grades 1-6.

Hi! My name is Isaiah and I am a 21-year-old Afro-Puerto Rican English major at Brooklyn College with a double minor in LGBTQ Studies and Puerto Rican and Latino Studies. For the past four years, I have had extensive experience tutoring and mentoring children, teenagers, and adults alike. I love helping people in all aspects of life, but I'm particularly good when it comes to writing! I have a flexible schedule for online meetings and can easily transport myself through Staten Island for in-person sessions. I look forward to working with you!

Hey there! My name is Hamza, and I studying in the BA/MD program, and Macaulay Honors College at Brooklyn College. I hope to go to medical school and become a doctor, in addition to being a business major.I went to high school in Long Island, where I graduated with 13 APs, an advanced regents diploma, and honors societies. I have always loved to challenge myself.I have been private tutoring for quite some time now. I have worked for other companies as well, and can therefore assist in multiple subjects.

While we humans try to understand Nature, I believe, Math is the language we employ to efficiently decode the study (called science) of the wonders of Nature around us. I found this as the major magnet, to begin with, that attracted me to the subject of Mathematics. In addition, the joy of making our young ones understand the subject and positioning them to take advantage of future possibilities such knowledge offers is a priceless fulfillment for me. With these as my basic reasons for being an educator, it has always given me a tremendous satisfaction each time my explanation makes my students understand a math concept, the light lit up in their heads, and their eyes glow with that radiant confirmation of the knowledge they have newly acquired. I guess that is what all true educators live for judging from my experience within a couple of decades during which I have been involved in teaching mathematics.

As a child I developed a love for reading that has lasted throughout my adult life. I enjoy helping students acquire strong literacy skills and instilling in them a similar love of reading. I received my Bachelor's degree from Brooklyn College with a major in Television Production and a minor in English. It was my study in English literature that eventually led me into teaching. I have taught in both preschool and public school. As a teacher it was my responsibility to help students learn and expand their literacy skills such as; letter recognition, phonics, grammar and vocabulary. Since reading and writing are so closely connected I also enjoy helping students to express their ideas and opinions on paper. I have taught both general and special education students; so I am familiar with writing and maintaining IEP goals. I think learning should be interactive and interesting, therefore I try to use music and games whenever appropriate. When I begin working with a student; I assess their current skills so that I can build on what they already know and help them to achieve their academic goals.I believe that all children can learn given the right tools and support.

I graduated from high school at Fordham Preparatory School in 2010 and am currently taking a semester off before my final year at the Macaulay Honors College at CUNY Brooklyn. I am working towards two bachelors degrees: a BFA in Creative Writing and a BA in Psychology.My first tutoring experience was in my senior year of high school during which I tutored juniors who wanted extra help preparing for the AP Language and Composition exam, which I had taken the previous year. In college I have helped students struggling with general essay-writing and specific English courses—mainly writing-intensive courses but in some cases literature classes as well. I have tutored students, including some non-native speakers, who struggled with essay-writing and grammar, syntax, and usage issues.My favorite subject to tutor was definitely AP Language and Composition mostly because of my interest in the subject itself. A lot of students know how to write a good essay but really struggle with this particular AP material because it requires you to take a step back and dissect the specific methods and structures at play in a given passage presented at random. Being able to put one's finger on the precise rhetorical methods that go into a strong piece of writing is really an enlightening experience.As far as my personal tutoring style, I prefer to provide students with the guidance and practice necessary to understand each individual facet of a given subject until they feel completely comfortable with the material on their own. I find it very important to avoid overwhelming students with the big picture of something like an SAT or AP exam and prefer to break down the material into manageable pieces which, once mastered, will allow the student to excel at the subject as a whole.Besides my academic pursuits, I enjoy going to shows for local bands in Manhattan and Brooklyn, and I participate in a bi-monthly poetry reading presented by a group with whom I workshop my personal writing projects. I spend a decent amount of time reading poetry and fiction when left to my own devices, but I also have a weakness for television and may just as likely be found catching up on reality shows.

I am currently working towards my Bachelor of Arts degree in Philosophy and Integrative Neuroscience at Binghamton University. In the past year, I worked with underprivileged kids who needed help improving their literacy skills and understanding of math and science. I firmly believe in educational equity and love being able to assist students in furthering their knowledge of troubled subjects/areas. I have tutored in many subjects ranging from Calculus to Essay Editing to SHSAT prep, but my personal favorite is tutoring Chemistry. It is my favorite subject to learn, so helping others understand it allows me to solidify my own knowledge of it. My approach to tutoring anything, especially the harder subjects, is to always use relatable examples or metaphors to strike a connection in a student's mind. The more relatable a hard concept feels, the better it can be understood. Outside of tutoring, I love going on hikes, running, playing guitar, reading books, and painting.

I migrated from Peru to America in the 80’s not knowing any English and realized the importance of being bilingual. After taking English classes and a lot of self study, I learned enough of the language to enroll in college. I got my bachelor and master’s degree in Spanish at Brooklyn College and tutoring my fellow classmates helped me pay for my tuition. Since then, I worked as a part time Spanish substitute teacher and was promoted to a full time teacher in public schools in Brooklyn. In 2013 my hard work paid off when my students got a 100 percent pass rate in their Spanish Lote Exam (the new name for Regents in Foreign Language). While I was teaching, I continued to tutor students who needed help in Spanish of all ages and grades. I have a particular student of Russian decent who I’ve been tutoring since she was in Junior High. When she went to high school, she took Spanish as her language of choice. Her teacher even thought she was Spanish because she spoke the language very well. At the present moment, I am still tutoring her in Spanish but this time, her lessons are more conversational. Due to my struggles as an immigrant, I tell all my students that it’s very important to go to college and get their education because it is something that no one can take away form you. It’s their ticket to their freedom and independence. In my spare time I practice yoga, spend time with my daughters and read books.

I am a graduate of both Brooklyn College, CUNY for my Bachelors in Geology and Queens College, CUNY for my Masters in Education. Aside from my more than 30 years of teaching and tutoring experience, I am well-traveled (parts of Asia, Europe, the Americas, and the Caribbean) and multi-lingual. I am passionate about my profession, ever searching for the best ways to help my students learn. I tutor a broad range of subjects, mostly in the areas of mathematics and the sciences. I am most passionate about Earth Sciences and Astronomy, Chemistry and test preparation for the SAT and ACT in Mathematics. In my experience helping struggling students prepare for Standardized Tests, I always am engaging my students in the problem-solving aspects of these examinations, ever honing their strategies to be successful. As a tutor, I firmly believe in engaging with and learning about how my students think and learn so that I can adapt my strategies for maximum success. I am a firm proponent of education, believing it to be absolutely necessary for an improved quality of life, and I try to impart this appreciation to all of my students. In my spare time, I enjoy reading which enriches my life, enjoying time with my family, relaxing on a beach, and learning. I am a life-long learner, and I always encourage my students to learn from their own life experiences.

I am a graduate of Brooklyn College. I received my Bachelors of Arts in Mathematics Education & Mathematics. As well in majoring in Math, I also minored in sociology, which provided more insight of the interaction of people. I am working on obtaining my teaching certification. I have experience teaching large math classes to working with small groups or individuals. While working with a tutoring program for at risk students, I had the opportunity to provide in-home tutoring to a range of age groups from 1st to 12th graders. With this company I tutored in English and Math. I've worked with TRIO program, providing tutoring to high school students in English and Math. As an educator, my job is to strengthen the knowledge of my students' skills/foundation and to present the material in ways that once seemed challenging as not so complex. I live for the "oh, I get it" moments.

I am a polyglot who loves to tutor! I have been tutoring grade school students since 2009.Furthermore, I have a wide experience with assisting my students with homework, revising materials learned, studying for upcoming exams as well as teaching French as a second language.With a great attitude, I commit to care and provide the highest possible quality in all of my work. I would love the opportunity to contribute to your success.Need an experienced tutor? I'm the one for you!

My name is Zhu and people call me Defendi. I am so glad to be here. This is a wonderful time in my life. Teaching people is one of my favorite things to do. I am kind and patient. I will always try my best to make things easier and more interesting during my tutoring sessions. I am here to teach math, language, and others.

Hi!I am a graduate student pursuing my EdM degree at the University at Buffalo! I have experience working with children from grades K-12, and am passionate about helping them improve their Math and Literacy Skills. I care about your success in the classroom, as well as outside the classroom. That is why our sessions will never be bland :) Together, we can overcome any hurdle, and turn the "I can't" into "I can."

I have an undergraduate degree in mathematics (summa cum laude) from CUNY where I earned the prestigious Arthur M. Keller award for academic achievement in mathematics and science. My expertise is in Calculus, Probability, and Statistics. I worked for ten years as public librarian where I had the opportunity to tutor students of all ages and abilities in mathematics of all levels. Presently, I work full-time for a large non-profit organization in a management position where I combine technology and statistical analysis to make purchasing decisions as well as design efficient workflow procedures. I hope to put my experience and skills to good use helping your child achieve their potential while also developing an appreciation of the beauty and power of mathematics.

I'm currently a part of the BA-MD medical program with SUNY Downstate. I've been tutoring students for over 5 years for a wide range of topics, including the ACT, the SAT, AP Biology, AP Chemistry, Essay Writing, and AP Psychology. I enjoy working with a variety of students, ages 8-20. In terms of my clients, I like working with dedicated, passionate students who are willing to put in the work to achieve their goals. For me, tutoring is about working with a student until they are able to achieve their goal, and even beyond that so that they have the confidence to continue pursuing their dreams. I'm very patient, calm, and thorough when covering a subject, and I truly enjoy watching my students transform into confident, knowledgeable people ready to tackle anything before them. Besides tutoring, I enjoy traveling, reading, and cooking. I'm also part of a debate team at my college, and enjoy public speaking activities.

I have a background both in the business world, where I founded and operated my own retail businesses for many years, and the educational world, where I teach History and Civics. I also have a background in theater, where I continue to work as an actor and director.I love history. To me, history is far more than a random collection of names and dates, but rather a study of human ideas and achievements. Math teaches you to think logically, science to think analytically, language arts to expand your thinking beyond our own time and space, but history teaches you to think for yourself. Today, too many people get their information from internet headlines, or talking heads on television, or from their families or friends, and rarely take the time to really understand the world. With such an information overload, who are we to believe? The only way is to develop a full background, with multiple viewpoints, and then to develop one's own opinions. My approach is to study history from a conceptual framework, rather than chronological, to fully understand how the ideas of other times laid the foundations for our ongoing society today.

Marcy Ebenstein's background includes over 15 years experience in tutoring and teaching, both in-person and online (at school or at home).

My belief is that true learning happens when it is enjoyable. My mission as a prospective New York City teacher is to do my part in making sure the information my students receive is done so in a way that is manageable and fun. When my students show interest and progress in the content being taught, I will know I have done my job.

I am currently a student at Macaulay Honors at Brooklyn College, part of the BAMD Program. Teaching has always been a favorite past time of mine, and I tend to excel in science and writing classes. My goal is to help everyone I can with these subjects and more!

I am a graduate of the Chungbuk national University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Korean Language and Literacy. I also graduated from Brooklyn college in NYC. I received master degree in Early Childhood Education and Students with Disabilities. I am a special education teacher in NYC. As my first language is Korean as well as I majored Korean language, I have been taught Korean at Korean language school over 10 years to non-Korean population. My experiences in teaching Korean language have been conducted from preschooler to adults. I believe my various experience in ages could be fitted any ages in any settings.

My name is Melissa Carlin. I have been a teacher in the New York City Department of Education for the passed twelve years. I have worked with students with IEPs in grades K-12. I have experience using resources that support people with ADHD, autism, anxiety, learning disabilities, and emotional dysregulation. I have experience teaching literacy skills to students ages 8-21. I have experience preparing students for the New York State ELA exams grades 3-8 and preparing high school students for the TASC exam.

I am a public health enthusiast and a medical student. I earned my Bachelor's in Biology and a minor in Anthropology from Brooklyn College. I have a Master's in Public Health with a concentration in Health Behaviors and Policy, from St. George's University in Grenada, West Indies. Grenada is where I developed my love for Public Health. I did grassroots work in Community Health and Needs Assessment and worked with Grenadian authorities in order to improve health behaviors in the Grand Anse Valley community in Grenada.Throughout my academics, I have always had a passion to teach. During my undergrad years I worked with Pre-K children through Americorps' Jumpstart program. I learned how to communicate with children who were between the ages of 3 and 5 years and came to a better understanding of how children learn from their environment. After my graduation, I taught 8th graders who were being home-schooled. I absolutely loved to create a bit of excitement in learning science and math. And, during med school, I tutored my peers and younger colleagues to tackle subjects like Anatomy and Physiology. I wanted to make their path through med school a little bit easier and less stressful.My approach to tutoring is that of understanding subjects, rather than rushing to the answer. I have always believed that the confidence students have in themselves plays a big role in learning, whereas fear and anxiety are a hindrance to learning and memory. This is a key player when it comes to exams as well. My main goal is always to help the student to learn how to maneuver through problems and obstacles even if they haven't come across them before. This always helps them to become confident in themselves and to not let challenges bring them down.

I'm a law student and long time tutor who's just made the move to Varsity. I've been tutoring for about eight years now, since I first started working with a friend of a friend's child on his SATs. I graduated from Brooklyn College with a degree in economics, and I'm at Hofstra Law School. I tutor the SATs, ACTs, LSAT, GRE, basically all high school subjects, and a bevy of college ones, including history, psychology, economics, law, and writing. That's not because I'm an expert in everything - it's because the only thing I enjoy more than learning is helping someone else learn. A good tutor doesn't just explain the subject to you - they explain what's cool about it, how it applies to your life, and why you want to learn it. If I have to brush up on my AP Chemistry as an excuse to explain why dimensional analysis is actually the most useful math you'll ever learn, I find it thrilling, not a chore. That's really my whole paradigm, as a tutor. Every subject has a relation to both everyday life, and to the coolest parts of the collective achievements of humanity. Learning not just what Pi is, but what it means, is treading the same ground as the people who built the pyramids. We lose that joy - the enrichment granted by greater understanding - too often in sterile and boring classrooms. My goal is to help students attain mastery by providing the context and tools that let them have "Eureka!" moments. Learning is fun, and tutoring is more than just being a living wikipedia article. It's giving life to the dry and soulless problem set, making fun of the trap answers on the LSAT, and linking history to its greatest stories. I don't need gimmicks and games to make that happen. I just find where a student and I can connect over the material, how they learn, and what they're having trouble with. I won't guarantee anyone a score on a test or promise that everyone can get an A in every subject. But I do promise not to waste anyone's time or money. Every session, my students will learn new facts, new techniques, or new ways to understand some boring idea. That's not because I'm the smartest guy in the room: it's because I simply love seeing people learn.

I'm Alex. I've lived in NYC for 7 years and currently live in Downtown Brooklyn. I work in marketing but have a strong background in Speech Language Pathology. I also make ceramics and practice improv, which I believe contribute to my dynamic approach to tutoring.I have a Bachelor of Science from New York University and a Master of Science in Speech Language Pathology from Brooklyn College. Prior to Graduate school I worked as a tutor for children between the ages of 7-12 focused on phonological awareness, reading comprehension, writing skills, and vocabulary. I taught college courses during my time at Brooklyn College in science, public speaking, and an overview of speech language pathology. I love teaching a variety of subject matter in creative ways as I believe true understanding comes when you are truly immersed in a topic. I really enjoy finding activities that encourage individuals to enjoy the tasks that are challenging them by incorporating favorite topics and games.I have experience working with individuals ages 0-99 years old. Through my graduate study I also worked closely with individuals with special needs. I understand that tutoring involves individualizing lesson plans because everyone learns differently. I love finding the methods that work best for my students and seeing the joy that comes from success in the classroom. I'm happy to answer any questions you may have!I love teaching English as a second language. Learning a language is frustrating at times but it can also be a lot of fun. I believe the more applications you have with a language and the more engaged you are the better your understanding will be. There are so many creative ways to approach learning a new language and I love working together with my student to find the ways that make it the most enjoyable and effective. I believe the more applications you have with a language and the more engaged you are the better your understanding will be. There are so many creative ways to approach learning a new language and I love working together with my student to find the ways that make it the most enjoyable and effective.I would love to work with you to find ways that help you meet your goals! I think we can make it enjoyable as well :). I'm happy to answer any questions you may have, please do not hesitate to reach out!
