As a member of the first generation in my family to go to college, I realized that this will be my gateway to explore what I wanted in my life. While attending CUNY, nothing intrigued me more than the chemical aspects of human anatomy. For example, I was completely baffled by the idea how the Le-Chatelier's principle can be used to regulate the pH in our body, or how conjugation in cholesterol structure helps provide fluidity in cell membrane. Inspired by this very ability of science to explain the physiological phenomenon, I decided to major in Chemistry. During my time at Hunter, I starting tutoring incoming freshmen and sophomores during my undergraduate years. As I begun my journey as a tutor, I realized that I was extremely enthusiastic about science, and education in general. I learned that with the right tools and resources, any student can achieve their goals. I am qualified to teach biochemistry, chemistry, and Biology. I can adapt to each student's needs and cater instruction and coaching through creative ways that can achieve positive outcomes.During the summer of last year in college, I began research on the genomic evolution of Syphils disease at Weill Cornell Medical College. The research focused primarily on the comparative analysis of various genes of the Syphlis disease pathogen-Treponema Pallidum. My job as a paid-intern involved extracting various orthologs from Trep genome, and to analyze the diversification in Treponema bacteria with the help of molecular phylogenetics. Currently I am an Adjunct at CUNY Hunter, where I teach general chemistry lab course. I am also familiar with various computer languages, such as bash, PERL, SQL, and bioperl.

Hello there! I'm Sheina, and I'm passionate about helping students thrive. I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science with a minor in Psychology from Hunter College CUNY; a Master of Arts in Biblical Studies from Alliance University (Magna Cum Laude); and a Doctor of Ministry in Theology from Liberty University (High Honors with Distinction). I've had the privilege of working with learners of all ages in English, History, and writing. I believe that each student has a unique voice and potential waiting to be uncovered. My approach to writing is centered on creativity and connection, using techniques such as "free writing" to help students express themselves confidently. I have extensive experience in guiding students through the complexities of crafting compelling essays, college entrance letters, and detailed dissertations. providing personalized feedback and guidance. My goal is to enhance your writing skills and boost academic success.

I am a graduate of Hunter College where I received my Master's of Science in Education with a focus on adolescent education and Students with Disabilities. I have been teaching for over 6 years in Manhattan, NY. While I teach middle school math, I am certified and have also taught middle school science, English Language Arts, and Social Studies. I have tutored several of my former students in Algebra I, Living Environment, and Biology, each of which went on to pass their Regents exams. I have experience also working with younger students, as I have taught both 3rd and 1st grade classes. My goal is to help my students find the joy in learning as they discover their strengthsand develop the areas they struggle in. In my spare time I love running, working out, reading, watching sports (basketball & football), and cooking.

I believe that each child is a unique individual who needs a secure, caring, and stimulating atmosphere in which to grow and mature emotionally, intellectually, physically, and socially. It is my desire as a tutor to help students meet their fullest potential in these areas by providing an environment that is safe, supports risk-taking, and invites a sharing of ideas. There are three elements that I believe are conducive to establishing such an environment; acting as a guide, allowing the students natural curiosity to direct his/her learning, and promoting respect and honor.When the tutor's role is to guide, providing access to information rather than acting as the primary source of information, the students' search for knowledge is met as they learn to find answers to their questions. For students to construct knowledge, they need the opportunity to discover for themselves and practice skills in authentic situations. Providing students access to hands-on activities and allowing adequate time and space to use materials that reinforce the lesson being studied creates an opportunity for individual discovery and construction of knowledge to occur.Equally important to self-discovery is having the opportunity to study things that are meaningful and relevant to one's life and interests. Inviting student dialogue about the lessons and units of study lends the opportunity for input, students generate ideas and set goals that make for much richer activities than I could have created or imagined myself. When students have ownership in the curriculum, they are motivated to work hard and master the skills necessary to reach their goals.Helping students to develop a deep love and respect for themselves, others, and their environment occurs through an open sharing of ideas; when the voice of each student is heard, and environment evolves where students feel free to express themselves. I believe children have greater respect for their tutors, their peers, and the lessons presented when they feel safe and sure of what is expected of them. In setting fair and consistent rules initially and stating the importance of every activity, students are shown respect for their presence and time. In turn, they learn to respect themselves, others, and their environment.For myself, tutoring provides an opportunity for continual learning and growth. One of my hopes as a tutor is to instill a love of learning in my students, as I share my own passion for learning with them. I feel there is a need for compassionate, strong, and dedicated individuals who are excited about working with children. In our competitive society it is important for students to not only receive a solid education, but to work with someone who is aware of and sensitive to their individual needs. I am such a person and will always strive to be the best tutor that I can be.

Marcy Ebenstein's background includes over 15 years experience in tutoring and teaching, both in-person and online (at school or at home). Her background includes a Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education and a Masters of Science Degree in Special Education.Education. She graduated with honors from Brooklyn College and Hunter College,New York City respectively.Marcy has a lifetime Certification in Elementary Education: (K-6), Early Childhoodand Learning Disabilities. She is available to help children of all ages excel in theirsubject areas, including life skills, ESL,plus a specialty in Reading and ReadingComprehension as she completed a training session in the Orton-Gillingham methodof teaching reading.She also has a strong concern in giving back to the community and volunteers withvarious organizations involving both people and animals in need.

I'm an artist, writer, and tutor, currently living in Brooklyn and applying to PHD programs. I have a deep passion for French-the culture, the sounds, and even the grammar! I love to teach it and speak it. In addition, I've been studying art history for around nine years, in high school and in college. My current research combines 19th century French literature, history, and art history, and I couldn't be happier to be able to use my interests to teach!

To provide a little bit of background about myself: currently, I am a recent graduate of Columbia University's prestigious Teacher's College, equipped with a master's degree as well as a New York State teaching certification in secondary English. Most recently, I had the wonderful experience of working with high school Freshmen teaching a literary analysis unit on Greek mythology and allegorical literature at the Bronx High School of Science. The process of working with a unique combination of gifted and talented students, as well as many ESL learners, really opened my eyes in terms of reinforcing the value of education and the impact it can serve in shaping young people's futures. In the scant few months I was there, I saw students' oral and written academic skills improve dramatically as their comfort with the material increased; more than this, I found myself developing a personal bond with quite a few of them. I legitimately had a lot of fun working with those kids, and I can honestly say that there were some teary faces on both sides when it came time to say goodbye.The reality is, I'm scarcely a decade older than many of the students I taught; as a (relatively) young person myself, I graduated from college but a few short years ago, student loan-free, due to an honors scholarship I received on the basis of academic merit. While I remain forever grateful to the City University system for providing me with a proper education, gratis, as it were, my true debt lies with the hardworking men and women who spent valuable time tutoring me during high school. I can honestly say that without their help, both on the subjects I was struggling in as well as on the SAT, I literally wouldn't be where I am today. I became a teacher, then, to give back to my community, and it's my hope that I can accomplish a little bit more of that as a tutor, by providing the individualized attention that so many students benefit from.As for my hobbies, outside of education I often find myself enjoying keeping up to date on technology trends in the media, reading science fiction, and exercising outdoors. I enjoy the sensation of progress that learning gives me, and it's my hope to share that joy with prospective students.

There's a lot to cover for Step 1, STEP 2, but the key is not just memorization. I like to focus on recognizing patterns. The exam is about understanding the concepts that really matter and being able to apply them, rather than cramming endless facts. Think of it like detective work: each disease or mechanism leaves behind a unique set of "clues." The real trick to mastering Step 1 is learning to spot those unique features and using them to tell one condition apart from another. When you approach it this way, Step 1 becomes less about rote memory and more about problem-solving. And once you start seeing the patterns, it actually becomes funyou feel like you're solving medical mysteries one question at a time.

I am a Hunter College CUNY honors graduate living in New York City, where I first started tutoring English and ESL skills at the Hunter College Reading/Writing Center.I also work for the DOE as a substitute teacher in New York City public, private, and charter schools, teaching all grades and subjects during the school year. In the Summer, I've taught classes in Summer Camps all over Brooklyn, so I've definitely run the spectrum of youth education in New York City!In my junior and senior years of college, I won English Department awards for playwriting and essaywriting, and my plays have been read and performed in theater spaces, including at the Thespis Theater Festival 2013. I also perform in Childrens' Musical Theater with the group FunikiJam! World Music (www.funikijam.com).I enjoy tutoring because I get to learn at the same time that I teach! Please contact me to setup an appointment.

I consider myself an energetic idealist that desires to make a difference through the service of others. I have a passion for understanding the world around me through personal research and informing others on my findings. I am a skilled communicator and know how to engage different personalities. I am highly adaptable and able to make adjustments to accommodate the needs of different individuals. Knowing this reassures me that I can help any student reach his or her full potential.

Elementary school educator and administrator for 15 exceptional years working in high performing college preparatory charter schools. I aim to provide quality academic support as well as outstanding educational choices to our families and students to equip students with the self-confidence, character and intellectual capacity to thrive and engage the world as informed responsible citizens.

I went to the University of Southern California for my bachelors in acting and theater. . However, I am currently pursuing my second bachelors in psychology at Hunter college.I tutor on the side because tutoring/teaching is something I'm quite gifted and passionate about. I have successfully tutored many subjects including Algebra 1 and 2, Elementary Math, Math Concepts,ReadingComprehension, Writing, Vocabulary, Grammar, Proofreading/editing, Chemistry, Beginners French, Study skills, and Test-taking skills.I have been tutoring younger students since I was in the tenth grade. Since then I have tutored a variety of ages and subjects, for a total of about seven years. I definitely have a complete understanding of every single subject I tutor.I will start by learning about you and evaluating your individual learning style. From there I will create a personalized, structured lesson plan, and we will work together to meet your academic goals. I tend to find most students need help with the fundamentals, so I always look to evaluate and solidify those. After that, we implement the individualized plan to help the student understand the material. I am a very patient and enthusiastic tutor, and I have worked with a range of students from those with learning disabilities to Honors and AP students. I absolutely love a challenge and will put not only my mind but my heart into your success!I truly hope that you consider me for tutoring - I will do the absolute best job I can to help you succeed in your academic difficulties. One of my greatest jobs is when I see a struggling student finally grasp a concept we've been working on together! I hope to hear from you!

I received my first training as a tutor in two undergraduate courses which prepared me for my job as a general chemistry tutor at Rollins College, where I received my B.A. in chemistry and mathematics. As an undergraduate, I also worked at a tutoring center in Winter Park, FL. At this center, I tutored students ranging from elementary to undergraduate. Although my professional and academic specialty is chemistry, I have extensive experience tutoring in a broad range of subjects, particularly test preparation (ACT/SAT) and mathematics. My skill as a tutor and passion for teaching stems from my insatiable need to learn about various subjects. As a lifelong learner, I am constantly making new connections and gaining a deeper understanding of the content and context of the material I work with. This enables me to approach a question or concept from numerous angles, not only enabling my students to retain the material but also helping them to see the broader implications of whatever they are learning. As a tutor, I aim to pique my students' interest and guide them to realize their own educational potential. Beyond academics, I thoroughly enjoy pursuing scientific research, reading (fiction and non-fiction), and outdoor activities, e.g. hiking and kayaking.

I have been teaching my whole life. I was a NYC public school teacher in ESL and a High School Teacher for 28 years. I taught Middle School for six years and even a first grade teacher in a private school for a year. I taught online for an overseas company for two years, and can't seem to stop even though I am now retired. I simply love to teach. I use my God-given talent to sing and write into my teaching. Once I teach a student, they are my passion and I do everything I can to help them succeed.

Hi there, I am a mother of two with a background in writing, journalism and education. I have a master's degree in Educational Psychology and currently work as a behavioral therapist.

I have been, in some fashion, a music educator since I was 14. I started teaching music at the Songcatchers Inc. Program in New Rochelle as a volunteer in 2000 and have been passionate about it ever since, ultimately turning it into my career when I finished Undergrad at Eastman/ U of R in 2008. During my last semester there, as well as any break that saw me returning home to New Rochelle, NY, I continued to teach music in any capacity that I could - private lessons and schools, charter schools, teaching agencies, camps, etc. Since 2008, I have hosted more than 8 studio recitals for my students and run myself as a business, seeking to musically educate as many people as I can.I strongly believe music and frankly all mediums of art are woven into the fabric of who we are as human beings, and a valuable resource for us in achieving a truly enlightened society. Despite this, music and art are all too frequently the first curricula cast aside by public schools and even in general. This has always struck me as incredibly short sighted given that music especially, gives students of all ages a chance to hone multiple intelligences/skills at once (motor coordination, language, visual perception, auditory perception, etc.). So I guess in a sense I am trying to balance the scales with my chosen career. Additionally, in recent years I've become passionate about discussing and planning long term musical goals with high school age students. For example, I've had students apply to and achieve admission to schools like SUNY Purchase and Berklee, under my guidance and accompaniment.In short, I relish any opportunity to bring personal development and joy to anyone, especially open minds. Now, more than ever, it is so vital. So too, will I relish the opportunity to work for you, if it is given.

Math is difficult. It can be scary. I am here to help.I got my BA in mathematics at Hunter College/CUNY. I studied economics in grad school at Oregon State.While in grad school I taught courses in economics and applied statistics. Since then I have tutored high school students in algebra, geometry and SAT math prep.I tutor all high school mathematics, economics and statistics. My favorite is SAT math because the questions require a detective-like approach and present an interesting challenge.I believe in strong grounding in mathematical definitions and methods tutored through example and backed up by repetition. I am always patient and encouraging.In my free time I like playing guitar and piano.

Dynamic educator and business professional with over six years of experience in effective motivational leadership and strategic people management. Proven ability to inspire, guide, and develop students through tailored and results-driven approaches, fostering high-performance and growth-focused environments.

I have been teaching Algebra, Geometry, ISEE, SAT, SSAT and ACT Prep for almost 20 years. My experience ranges from teaching in person classes of up to 30 students, to one-on-one individualized programs. I am passionate about helping my students learn the materials in each of their individual learning styles. No two students are identical and are able to learn the same. Teachers must be able to adapt and assist each student's needs in this way.

We are all able to learn. Some many need strategies, clarification and some TLC. As a Speech-Language Pathologist for 30+ years, it has been my passion to assist my clients in achieving their goals.I am patient, funny and compassionate.

I've recently completed my Bachelor's degree in English literature at Hunter College. Through the course of my studies I've not only learned to appreciate literature from different times and places, but also to respect and understand the views and philosophies of critics and peers. This has effected my personal and professional relationships in a way that nothing else could have. I've learned to take other points of view into account, as well as constantly shift my own way of looking at the world and making changes for the better. I enjoy working as a tutor because it allows me to use some of my skills to help others. However, this has not been without received benefits. I continuously learn from and am inspired by my students. I believe strongly that every young child or adult has the potential to create positive changes for his or her community, and that it sometimes takes a positive experience with learning and education to inspire him or her. I'm willing to, and am eager to, work with students in various ways in order to suit their needs most appropriately. Most importantly, I'm always excited to inspire the quest for knowledge in any one I am fortunate to cross paths with.

I studied abroad in Germany the summer of my sophomore year. I was raised bilingual in Spanish and English. These days I've expanded my horizons to the French and German languages. In high school, I tutored students in Algebra at risk of failing the year. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about Algebra, Critical Reading and Writing for Standardized Tests. I care about my students' success. I love learning and have a passion to help others become lifelong learners. In my spare time, I read and go for walks along the riverside.

With nearly two decades of experience in education, I've taught in bilingual Spanish elementaryclassrooms, ESL programs for children and adults in Ecuador, after school Spanish language programs, and piano and general music instruction to all ages in group and individual classes.My student-centric teaching philosophy is rooted in building confidence, comfortable self-expression, good social skills and having fun! The students I work with achieve exceptional results by learning how to set high standards for themselves, recognize each victory as they go, and become their own advocates for success.The joy of seeing that light bulb go off during moments that seem so brief but are really important milestones in a child's learning journey and their gleaming smile when they can FEEL the progress they are making these are the things I have enjoyed most about working with children.

I am a tutor that is interested in helping people to succeed in their classes and enjoy learning.

I believe all students can achieve their full potential when provided with the appropriate modifications, scaffolds or resources necessary. My job as a teacher is to help all students feel successful. I hope that as a teacher I can encourage respect for learning and intellectual achievement by stimulating individual curiosity about the world. I have been a classroom teacher for 5 years and I believe that tutoring will be a great opportunity for me to create more personal relationships in order to help students reach their potential by teaching to the student's strengths and minimizing their weaknesses. As a classroom teacher of 25 or more students you don't always get the opportunity to work with students on a one to one basis. I have taught students in 1st to 12th grade and at the college level. I am knowledgeable of strategies that work well for struggling readers and English Language Learners. I am very organized and more than willing to put in the time and effort to help every student succeed.

If you're reading this, it is probably because you want to learn a little more about my personality and credentials. In short, I am an affable, non-judgmental teacher, and am broadly qualified to tutor everything from basic literacy, to specialized test-prep, to college-level composition. I have almost a decade's worth of experience teaching and tutoring for the verbal sections of the English Regents, SAT, ACT, AP Language, and AP Literature exams, and served as an undergraduate at the Georgetown University Writing Center. Additionally, I enjoy helping students with their college admissions essays, and have found that there is a way to make the writing process authentic, creative, and sometimes even enjoyable.So, whatever your dilemma, consider inviting me to help.

I am a passionate educator with over eight years of teaching and tutoring experience. I have worked with many different kinds of learners during my career as a public school teacher, and I understand that every student has their own unique way of growing and of mastering skills. I have experience teaching a wide variety of literature and non-fiction texts and am very familiar with the Common Core and its emphasis on research skills. I especially enjoy teaching writing; I myself love to write and I teach students a clear process for approaching challenging essay assignments. Above all, I believe that learning should be meaningful and enjoyable and that any academic task is part of a student's personal journey of discovery.My undergraduate education at Columbia University gave me a thorough understanding of British, American, Latino, and African-American literature. My Master of Arts program in Adolescent English Education at Hunter College has enhanced my knowledge of literature while also covering the teaching skills that allow me to help students to master difficult concepts.I am a confident teacher of test preparation skills. I provide reading and writing strategies that empower students to perform at a high level on selected-response, short response, and essay questions. I emphasize the importance of analyzing test questions and passages so that students have a clear "plan of attack" on test day.My personal interests include playing guitar, songwriting, Tai Chi, and meditation.

I have my BA in English, and MS in Education, both from Hunter College. For the past year I worked as a lead teacher but I really miss tutoring. Prior to teaching, I tutored for 2 years and found it extremely gratifying.I have a proven track record for student achievement. One of my students achieved the highest score in her school on the Social Studies State Exam. In addition, my students improved by 30% after only 20 tutoring hours (on average, comparing pre-assessment and post-assessment scores). I have experience tutoring grades 1-8, but I really shine with elementary students.I strive to help students reach the next level; whether they are struggling to keep up, or striving to be at the head of the class. I have experience tutoring in Reading Comprehension, Writing, Grammar, Math, Science and Social Studies.I find learning fun and bring my love of learning to every session.- Lee

I have been a classroom teacher in public schools for the last 15 years, and I have a wealth of experience with learners in middle and high school. I am a graduate of DePauw University, with a BA in Spanish, and I obtained my Masters in Spanish/Latin American Literature from Hunter College. I love teaching Spanish language to all levels, and I also am passionate and well-versed in literary analysis and Latin American history and culture. My extensive experience with the education system in the US has given me insight into many of the skills required on our standardized tests and in our college essay writing. I believe that all students have an innate desire and ability to learn, and that a true teacher makes it their job to find out how to bridge the gap between a student and the subject material. My favorite moments during tutoring sessions are when students truly connect with the material and we can both learn something new.

I am an experienced Spanish tutor from Columbia. From the first day of class you will be immersed in the language. I will identify your needs, evaluate you level of conversation and listening comprehension. My learning method emphasizes on real life situations (It won't be only grammar all the time) that will also be explained in a supportive atmosphere that will encourage you to make rapid progress. I call it Natural Conversational Approach. I am committed to help you achieve your goals at your own pace.

I am a New York State certified teacher for grades 7-12. I am a graduate of Hunter College in New York City, where I earned both my BA and MA Ed. I loved the opportunities Hunter gave me to pursue my love of Literature, Psychology and Teaching.I have traveled extensively in Europe over the years, and I am always on the lookout for new learning experiences that I can share with my students. I do not hesitate to share with them pictures and stories of the places I have visited which connect to literature because they can see that I am not only knowledgeable about the printed word, but that I have experienced some of what we are reading. I enjoy tutoring one on one because of the bonds I establish with my students. My goal is to have my students enjoy and succeed in the course we are working on. I value a good education for all people regardless of the career they choose, and my motto is "do your personal best."

Throughout my years of teaching, I have had the pleasure to see my students grow into competent and successful beings. Their confidence grew with our sessions, and they realized that they can do what they thought was the impossible. I enjoy tutoring and teaching because of these moments. There aren’t many professions when you get to help people and see results quickly. This job is one of the few.

I have been a teacher for more than twelve years. I am a graduate of Hunter College at CUNY. I received my Master of Science in Elementary Education. I am also certified to teach Chinese.

In my experience helping students to learn, we can always find common interests and make it a fun learning experience. In my spare time, I enjoy watching movies, volunteering, going to gym, and travel. It will be my honor to be your tutor. Looking forward to meeting you.

I believe I can teach mathematics to anyone who wants to learn it, for whatever reason. The motivation is the most important factor. I happen to love the subject, and this just means that I enjoy talking about it and communicating about it. Mathematics is about knowing what you know, and knowing what you do not know - what could be more important than that?

Hi, my name is Matt and I'm a tutor and licensed educator based in Brooklyn, New York. I specialize in literacy, writing, and ADHD/learning disabilities but I have taught everything from High School Economics (English as a new language) to Kindergarten Math. I am a life long learner, a future clinical social worker, and an active musician. As an educator my greatest passion is helping foster a genuine love of learning in all of my students. Whether it's a high school student who needs help with a college essay or a kindergartner who wants to learn to write their first song, I would love to work with you. As a student with ADHD I believe strongly in holistic education. Many students fail to thrive despite a natural talent and curiosity. As a tutor I use my concurrent education in social work to help students develop the soft skills they need to thrive in school and beyond.

I attended Hunter College, City University of New York and I received a Bachelor's degree in Theater History. After pursuing a career as an actress and singer in New York and Los Angeles for about 12 years, I discovered my entrepreneurial side and started a successful concierge business in Westchester, New York which lasted for about a year before I relocated to Los Angeles. In California, I briefly continued my concierge business before going back to school and earning a certification as a clinical hypnotherapist. I conducted therapy with many clients and helped them deal with issues such as weight loss, smoking cessation and dysfunctional relationships. Eventually, I moved my therapy business online and began offering self-help advice and coaching to women who wanted to start their own small businesses. Currently, I am still working online, but now mostly as a freelance writer, creating marketing content for business owners.
