Award-Winning Tutors from CUNY Hunter College

I graduated from Macaulay Honors College at Hunter College with a double-major in Biology and Psychology. Throughout college, I volunteered as a Biology tutor at my school's tutoring center, teaching assistant in General Chemistry, and Math tutor at the Special Needs Clinic at New York Presbyterian-Columbia University Medical Center. My motivation for volunteering was kindled by upperclassmen and teacher assistants that helped me when I was in introductory courses. I credit attending weekly tutoring hours throughout college as playing a pivotal role in my success in these courses and the MCAT exam. I enjoy sharing and explaining concepts I understand and helping others appreciate them. Ultimately, through these experiences, I discovered that I deeply enjoy aiding students and enriching their understanding of the subject to the point of witnessing an upward trajectory in their performance.

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.

I recently graduated from CUNY Hunter College. I received my Bachelors degree in Biology with Bioinformatics concentration and Chemistry focus. I am a member of National Society of Collegiate Scholars. I have always been very passionate learning Organic Chemistry and helping others. Organic chemistry, a world of reactions and amazing concepts behind them urged me to be an organic chemistry tutor at Hunter College. I enjoyed interacting with students who were eager to learn it. It was my pleasure helping them with their difficulties in concept understanding, problem solving and encouraged them to try out themselves with self-confidence. I loved seeing them improve their understanding of concepts as well as their test scores. I tutor Organic Chemistry I and II because I really like the deep concepts behind every topic and planning out the strategies to get to the solution. I believe enjoying the process of learning new things is a key step that allows our minds to grow and nurture and it let us discover skills and talents that are hidden within each of us. Besides Organic Chemistry, I like writing, playing badminton and reading about historical events.

I graduated in May of 2023 from Hunter College with a BA in Mathematics. I previously worked in the Dolciani Math Center at Hunter College as a tutor, working one on one or in groups with students. There I tutored College Algebra, Trigonometry, Pre-Calculus and more. As a private tutor, I worked with students ranging from the 1st grade to high school, tutoring basic mathematics, SAT Math, Algebra, Geometry, AP Calc AB as well as other similar subjects. I've always enjoyed tutoring others as a way to give back to the community that has helped me throughout my own educational career, hoping it will encourage others to do the same. Lastly, in my free time I enjoy reading, playing on my Nintendo Switch, doing puzzles, and practicing yoga.

I tutor a wide range of subjects, with a background in humanities, arts and math. I've been a language teacher for the past seven years, focusing on "twice exceptional" students, those who are highly gifted and have challenges like autism, executive functioning, and learning disabilities. With master's degrees in both Mathematical Physics and Special Education, I love teaching both advanced subject material and the fundamentals of literacy, organizing, and the whole human that go along with all learning. I often say I work best with folks who "love learning but hate school."I am very flexible with teaching, ethics and focus on student needs, styles and interests. In languages especially, I can bring students to great leaps in proficiency through low-stress, research-backed methods like immersion in "comprehensible input" and learning through stories and cultural material with lots of context.

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 graduate of Bethune-Cookman University, where I received my bachelor's degree in criminal justice. Since graduating with my bachelor's degree, I have graduated from Hunter College in New York. I have received my master's degrees in Education with a focus in Special Education. I have had extensive training and experience in a high school setting using skills taught to enhance student improvement within the classroom. Being able to modify and find innovative ways to teach struggling learners is one of my areas expertise. I currently teach in Broward county and I work with students in one-on-one settings and small group instruction. I enjoy reading but, in particular I like to read about current events. I love to explore and travel to learn more about the world that we live in. My passion is to help struggling learners and really see students grow in their education.

Common core-trained teacher with extensive experience working with students in Grades 1-12. I love reading and writing and can solve almost any problem thrown my way. I currently live in New York City where I am fortunate enough to mentor Middle and High schoolers in their day-to-day academic classes. I'm looking forward to meeting you and working together :)

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 earned my Bachelor's degree from Binghamton University in New York, where I majored in mathematics. I am currently in my final semester at Hunter College where I will receive a Master's degree and NYS certification in Adolescent Mathematics Education. In addition, I am certified in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages and taught at an international English school in Westchester County. I am also an accomplished pastry chef with an interest in low sugar baking. I am excited and inspired by learning and continue to be a student of pastry, music, Spanish, Italian, Latin dancing, and cooking.My strength as a tutor lies in my ability to analyze a student's data and use it to craft a personalized study plan. I have successfully tutored 2 National Merit Finalists for the PSAT and SAT and have seen score increases as high as sixty percent. My dual background in Mathematics and ESL provides a balanced instructional experience for students.I am an experienced tutor for the ISEE, SSAT, SAT, SATII (math), ACT, GRE, GMAT, TOEFL and NYS math Regents exams and also teach mathematics (pre-algebra through pre-calculus).

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.

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. I love to teach students of all ages. I am most passionate about seeing students excel in their learning. 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.

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.

A lifelong curiosity about the English language led me to an ESL teaching career. I hold an MA in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL) as well as a BA in English. I would be happy to help you improve your English. I can assist you in many areas such as grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, speaking, listening, reading, writing, academic English, essay writing, conversational English, proofreading and editing, and much more.I am also a musician, obsessive bread baker, and runner.

I believe that every student has the ability to learn if we can figure out how to best meet their needs. No one is perfect, but practice and patience will help us get closer.I am a 26 year old graduate from Hunter College with a Masters degree in Childhood Education with certification to teach the blind and visually impaired. I also received my Bachelors degree in Psychology from Marist College.

I am seeking my Bachelor's in Mathematics from Hunter College. I am a highly skilled and motivated individual who possesses a passion for teaching. I am extremely organized and provide everything necessary to ensure the success of my students. I have vast experience tutoring children and adults between the ages of 6-25 from basic Algebra to Calculus II. I provide a calendar with specific test dates to help students become more organized. I create tests based on questions which the students struggle answering. I create detailed study guides for every section that I teach so that students have access to easy to understand explanations of material at any time. I work with parents, as well, to better understand my students' learning styles and tailor and establish the perfect tutoring relationships. Every single one of my students has succeeded and thrived academically and this is of the utmost importance to me, as my students are a direct reflection of me. My interests and hobbies include basketball, hiking, swimming, and running.

I am 22 years young and a current student at Hunter College majoring in Economics. My experience in tutoring goes from volunteering in a tutorial center while I was a teen to then private tutoring. I love traveling, food, movies, music, hanging out, socializing and enjoying life.

I began teaching English and math to middle school students in 2012. When I was working at Urban Science Academy in NYC, I remember one particular student of mine who had anxiety when taking tests. They become scatterbrained and unfocused, unable to stop shaking their leg and playing with their pencil, rather than using it. A few weeks leading up to the state tests, I led students in a class debate while teaching a unit on argumentative essay writing. Through my support and guidance, this student spoke with confidence and poise while using evidence to back up his claim. This moment solidified my passion for creating an inquiry-based learning environment where students are critical thinkers, feel empowered, engaged in the material they are learning, and inspired to speak their opinions confidently.In the five years I have been teaching, I am most proud of building valuable and trusting relationships with my students. These relationships spark higher motivation for learning and more positive and healthy social interactions. In my 7th grade math classroom this year, I worked with a student who had consistently scored low on his quarterly assessments up through this year. He struggled with impulse control and had a difficult time focusing for longer periods of time; yet he was very bright, hard working, and asked questions in class everyday. After I worked with him in a small group setting and helped him build confidence, he jumped 30 points. This was a huge success and confidence booster for him. As a tutor, I will bring the qualities I have developed as a classroom teacher, creating a safe environment where students can think outside of the box, make mistakes, and take control over their own learning, to my tutoring sessions.

I am an alumna of the City University of New York where I earned a BA in Environmental Earth Science from Hunter College and a PhD in Earth and Environmental Sciences from The Graduate Center. My undergraduate research focused on geochemistry, geology, and soil chemistry. The bulk of my PhD work was centered on a numerical model of geologic processes within ancient 4 billion year old asteroids using Fortran90 in conjunction with MATLAB. I have 2 years of experience mentoring and tutoring college juniors and seniors. I have also led tours of the American Museum of Natural History that covered topics like gems and minerals, the geology of Manhattan's skyscrapers, and the history of the Solar System. Given my background, I am most effective at tutoring college to graduate level environmental science, geology, and MATLAB programming. I believe that education should be accessible to all who seek it and I endeavor to nurture curiosity about the natural world.

I love teaching because I love learning. There is nothing as exciting to me as being with a student of any age or developmental stage, while their eyes are opening to new ideas and ways of thinking.

I love students who ask questions! There is no such thing as a dumb question. Just be courageous enough to ask it and you'll be surprised!

I am currently pursuing my bachelor's degree in Biochemistry at Hunter College. I have had many years of tutoring experience, ranging from elementary school classes to college level courses. I tutor algebra, geometry, calculus, chemistry, physics, reading comprehension, and writing composition. My favorite subjects to teach is physics because many students view it as a hard science, but after tutoring, they feel it to be much more intuitive than they initially believed. I believe that patience is the most important quality during tutoring. I will take any measure needed to ensure my students feel comfortable with the material and are able to confidently approach it. I enjoy visiting museums and finding new interests in my free time. There are many things to learn about the world, and seeing those things first hand is an experience in itself.

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 always enjoyed figuring out novel ways of presenting information so that others can understand the material being presented. I believe that all knowledge can have real-world applicability, so in the classroom I often use a lot of analogies and stories in order to make the information relevant. I also specialize in connecting with all people--regardless of age--on their level, which makes teaching and tutoring a lot of fun for both of us. I am CELTA certified, and have learned the appropriate pedagogical techniques to work one-on-one with people. I applied those skills in France, where I tutored three individuals (two pre-teen sisters and one adult male) in English.

I am a Hunter College graduate with a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology, and a long time lover of the written word. I worked as a tutor in the New York City public school system with a wonderful group of students ranging in age from eight to thirteen. Our work together focused on writing, reading comprehension, fluency and phonics. I also have experience as a preschool teacher where early literacy was an important focus. I care very much for my students and hope to instill in them the same level of interest in reading and writing that I have.

I am an elementary school teacher during the day and a student too- learning really is life long. My favorite hobbies are mostly outdoor activities like hiking and climbing. I love traveling in the USA and to Europe, which is where I'm from. I love art in all its form, visual and performing arts. My favorite subjects are Math and Science. Reading always calms and there's nothing I love more than a good book.

I'm a Hunter College graduate with a double major in Economics and English Literature. While my academic background is broad, my primary focus and passion are teaching Elementary and Middle School Mathematics. I believe that Math is more than just numbers on a page; it's the foundation for how we navigate the world. I specialize in helping students find those 'aha! moments - the instant where a confusing concept finally makes sense, and their confidence soars. By building a strong mathematical foundation early on, I help students develop the problem-solving skills they'll use in every aspect of their daily lives. Whether we're mastering basic arithmetic or transitioning into pre-algebra, my goal is to show students that math isn't a hurdle to get over - it's a tool for a brighter and more successful future.

When it comes to teaching, I do my best to ensure that the tutee understands the material. I am patient when it comes to teaching, as every student has their own pace of study, and will alter my methods in order to meet their pace. I would then create problems that would test their knowledge on the subject before moving onto the next. The success of my student is very important to me, and I will do my best to help them achieve their best.

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.

As a French speaker for over two decades, the language has become a subject I have learned to love. Through those years of learning and practicing (an ongoing process), the French language has exposed me to its beauty, complexity and diversity of usage. That's the reason why after earning a B.A in French Language and Civilization, I decided to make a career of it by pursing a Master's degree in French Education. Moreover, as someone who speaks five languages and learned both French and English as second languages, I am aware of the challenges of learning a new language and have the experience to teach it efficiently.
