I am a graduate of New York University, where I studied psychology, studio art, and English. I chose to go to NYU because it is a good school and because I wanted to experience life in a different setting and because I love to travel and explore. I'm patient and passionate about helping students learn new things that they can use in the future. My favorite subjects are art and English. In my spare time, I like to draw, take photographs, and read.

I have been a passionate student of foreign languages since the beginning of my academic career. Ever since I was a child, I have held a deep fascination with languages, cultures, and ways of doing things foreign to my own. The fun thing is, the deeper I go into a foreign culture, the more I realize I have so much left to learn and experience. My language skills allow me to travel to far off lands and immerse myself and interact with non-English speakers. Did you know that Mandarin Chinese is the most widely-spoken language in the world, with almost 1 billion speakers across 12 countries? The next most widely-spoken language is Spanish, with around 400 million speakers across 31 countries! The third most-widely spoken language is English, which has over 335 million speakers, and as the modern *lingua franca* for international relations and commerce, is spoken in over 100 countries across the world! With mastery of these three global languages, you will find yourself capable of communicating with an enormous 25% of the entire global population! That's a lot of territory! Once you have the language basics down, there remains only one question to ask yourself: Where do you want to go? I look forward to preparing you for you own adventure
I have my Masters degree in Early Childhood and Elementary Education from New York University and my undergraduate degree in Commerce from the University of Virginia. I have experience as a classroom teacher in schools in New York City and Philadelphia. Most recently I have worked as a small group academic intervention teacher in both Literacy and Math. I have a passion for teaching and learning and giving students the tools necessary to be successful. In my spare time I enjoy reading, cooking, traveling and spending time with my 3 daughters.
I believe every student has the capacity to succeed if given both encouragement and the tools to learn. Every failure is an opportunity for growth, both academically and personally.I am a graduate of New York University with a B.A. in Political Science. I've tutored students through the America Reads/America Counts program in college and as an independent tutor in subjects including essay writing, SAT prep, elementary math, phonics, and English as a second language. My style is to adapt to the needs of students and their personalities rather than prescribe a catch-all approach. Coming from an academically high-pressure background (I am a graduate of an International Baccalaureate program high school), I excel at meeting the needs of students trying to succeed in similar environments.
I have taught Italian and Spanish on all grade levels. I have traveled to these countries and can bring first hand information about the culture. I try to inspire students with my love for foreign language.
I am a graduate from New York University with a degree in Media, Culture and Communication. I have experience tutoring from elementary level through college level, as well as in SAT prep. I think patience is the key to being an effective teacher, which is something I apply while tutoring students. Furthermore, I think it is important that students never lose the joy that comes with learning.
I can help you achieve your academic goals. My unique blend of advanced education, real-world applications, work with youth, and one-on-one counseling can offer you an enriching tutoring experience - one that addresses the intellectual, practical and creative aspects of Mathematics. I've helped students from a variety of ages succeed in all kinds of subjects, from arithmetic to advanced calculus and standardized tests. One of my most notable successes was helping a student raise his standardized test score over 150 points in just two months! Here are some details about me: - National Merit Scholar - M.S. in Mathematics at NYU's Courant Institute (#1 on Newsweek) - Currently a researcher in Theoretical Computer Science - Worked in the math-heavy Actuarial industry for 3 years - 12+ years mentoring students and youth on a volunteer basis - 5+ years tutoring all levels of math Thanks for viewing my profile, and I wish you great success!
I tutor with two purposes regardless of the subject matter. The first is to meet the student's goals. The second is to give each student the skills to teach himself or herself. Those learning skills will enable them to improves their academic performance and as important build self-confidence.
I am a graduate of Manhattan College and NYU both located in New York. I received a Bachelor of Science from Manhattan College in Secondary Math Education. I received a Master of Arts in Teaching of Mathematics. I was a 2011 Math for America Fellow; Math for America is a selective five - year program with a mission of improving secondary math education. I hold professional certifications in New York State for Mathematics Grades 7 - 12, Mathematics Grades 5 - 6, and Students with Disabilities (Generalist) Grades 7 - 12.I have been teaching for four years in New York City, grades 6 - 8. I have taught Mathematics grades 6 - 8, Computers, and as a Special Education teacher across subjects ( Math, Science, ELA, Art, Spanish etc.) Prior to teaching full time, I completed two student teaching placements, one in middle school grade 7 and one in high school teaching Algebra 2. Leading up to my time in education I worked at a local YMCA for over five years, starting as a Camp Counselor and working my way up to Assistant Camp Director.I am comfortable tutoring elementary subject and middle school subjects, particularly math. I also tutor Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1, Algebra 2 and Probability. I believe that the key to learning is the student - teacher relationship. The teacher needs to be willing to find the style in which the student learns and the student needs to be open to learning. I would describe my teaching style as flexible and receptive, my teaching style must be fluid because not all students learn in the same way. Some students may learn best by completing ten practice problems while others need pictures and visuals, teachers need to have a solid foundation in their subject area so they can modify their instruction to the needs of the student.Outside of teaching, I spend my time engaged in Sports and Arts. I am an avid photographer, graphic designer, soccer player and rower. I've played soccer almost my entire life and took up rowing in high school and rowed at the collegiate level. I started photography in High School and graphic design in college. I enjoy both digital and film photography, as well as developing my own film and photographs. I am proficient with both Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator.
As an undergrad at New York University, I am working towards my Bachelor of Arts in Economics. Since graduating from Brooklyn Technical High School, I have tutored high school students in algebra and trigonometry and helped prepare students for the SAT. I am also a Jumpstart Corps Member and spend a few days a week providing preschool children in low income communities support in language, literacy skills, and social-emotional competencies.While I have experience in a broad range of subjects, my favorite subject to tutor is math because of the systematic methods involved. My job as a tutor is to provide resources for my students and to guide them when they need help. I believe that the best kind of student is one who wants to improve as much as I want to help them. There must be effort from both sides.In my spare time, I like to knit and do other DIY projects.
As a teacher, I am passionate about supporting students' critical thinking and communication skills. I strive to help students discover and refine their unique, writerly voices, and communicate their ideas more clearly and effectively. In working with students, I try to meet them where they are at in their learning journey and encourage their growth by offering new ideas and ways of thinking about topics. My primary strength is in formal, academic writing: I was published twice as an undergraduate, and I continue to work toward publications in my graduate career. However, I'm able to adjust to whatever writing style fits the needs of the project at hand.
I am a senior at New York University studying Social Research and Public Policy. I have spent the last three years traveling to different countries for school, and I have lived in three of them. I am passionate about education and social justice, and I am currently applying to grad school to study education and social work. I have 2 years of experience tutoring K-12 students, which has only inspired my goal to become a teacher. For elementary and middle school aged students, I tutor all subjects. For high school students, I tutor subjects like English (Reading, Writing, Literature), Psychology, History, and especially test prep for the PSATs, SATs, and ACTs. I find it extremely rewarding to help students learn to strategize and excel in standardized testing.
I am great at building rapport with students and figuring out what they need, especially with small groups of students or 1-on-1. I have a lot of educational theory knowledge thanks to my master's degree from NYU in TESOL and Foreign Language Education, and I've put that into practice during my teaching: elementary ESL and high school Japanese and English/ESL. I've also taught English in elementary schools in Japan, and worked online and in person with kids and adults in ESL and Japanese. I have experience tutoring for standardized tests as well. I believe that we can work together to construct knowledge instead of just lecturing at you while you memorize facts. I want to help you learn, grow and realize your own potential!
I recently completed an MA in French Studies from New York University, following an MA in European Union Studies and a BA with High Distinction in History from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. I can tutor a wide variety of subjects, including standardized test prep, English, and French, but my favorites to work with are History and writing. The study of History is my passion, and there are few things that I enjoy more than getting the opportunity to share this passion with others. As part of my History Honors program in undergrad, I was able to help tutor other students in these subjects, including preparing for exams. I also have experience in providing peer reviews and constructive critiques in graduate level writing in multiple fields. Coming from a family of teachers, education has always been a central value in my life, and I try to use this love of learning to help create the best experience I can for my students. I believe that every tutoring session should be built around the interests and learning styles of the student to ensure that they not only learn, but hopefully come to enjoy it too. Outside of academics, I usually fill my time with reading, playing video games, exercising, and cooking.
I originally went to NYU for my BA majoring in Journalism and Economics and minoring in Business. While there, my team also won a grant for Social Entrepreneurship which sparked the passion for ethical business that I am currently perusing at FIT with a certificate in Sustainable Design. In high school I tutored middle school math and taught ballet in the summer and in college I took a class where we tutored ESL students in reading. I am so excited to share my love of math (I was even on the math team), reading and writing with students!
I'm a student at NYU working on my BM in Vocal Performance. I'm energetic, cheerful, competitive, and I like thinking outside the box. I love figuring things out and learning things and am excited to get to know and teach you!
I graduated from New York University with my Bachelor's degree in Biology and Psychology. Currently, I am an Administrative Assistant at a cancer hospital. I have previously worked with children, primarily kindergarteners, through America Reads and Counts. My specialty areas are Psychology, Biology and Math. I am very focused and patient. I am looking to be a mentor and a resource for anyone that I tutor.
I completed four years of undergraduate study at the University of Georgia, where I earned my Bachelor of Arts in Spanish and Latin American and Caribbean studies. That fall, after graduating in 2010, I moved to Spain where I began working in a public high school, teaching various subjects in English to Spanish students whose ages ranged from 12-18. After two years, I started teaching adults at a private academy in a nearby city in southern Spain, preparing them for official English exams from Cambridge and Trinity and tutoring private clients. In 2014 I got my Master's in Applied Linguistics from NYU. Currently, in the middle of this pandemic, I am teaching English to young Chinese students virtually. In my ten years of experience helping struggling students whose profiles vary greatly, I am a firm supporter of continuing education. It is absolutely necessary for an improved quality of life, and I love sharing my passion for learning with my students. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, baseball and other sports, yoga, running, listening to music and crocheting.
I would describe myself as a person who has an ongoing love of learning and teaching, especially social sciences topics (world civilization, history, government and economics). I also enjoy teaching ESL (English as a Second Language) / EFL (English as a Foreign Language) because of the gratification of assisting students to enhance their personal and professional lives by improving their English language skills.I earned a PhD from Rutgers University in Global Affairs, an MA from Columbia University in Regional Studies in Eastern Europe (focus on politics and economics) and a BA from New York University in History and Journalism. I have taught for over 10 years at colleges in the greater New York City area and volunteered for two years as a Peace Corps Volunteer to teach in Ukraine in the International Relations Department, Odessa National University. In addition, I have an ESL equivalent certificate and have enjoyed working with ESL and EFL students in Italy, Ukraine, Michigan, New York and New Jersey.My tutoring style is characterized by engaging students and making it a very personalized and tailored experience.Im looking forward to meeting, working with and getting to know students who would benefit from tutoring in any of the socials science, ESL/EFL and college students who are planning to take the GRE or need assistance in writing college essays.
I am a wordsmith focusing on building vocabulary, grammar, and thought structure for different writing styles; including research papers, essays, data analysis, storytelling and corporate communications. I love working with students of all ages and stages of their learning journey and I specialize in tackling performance anxiety during "crunch-time." While obtaining my graduate degree, I enjoyed working as a TA, and sharing ideas and perspectives with bright undergrads. My teaching style is patient and personalized. I strive to find what sparks interest in the student and relate those ideas to the subject matter.
A humanities-oriented tutor with three years of experience teaching writing and a classical liberal arts education, I am prepared to tutor in a wide variety of subjects across the humanities and social sciences, to help you sharpen your writing skills, and to empower you with the skills needed to tackle the most stubborn standardized test questionsincluding those on the GRE Verbal and SAT Writing sections. I hold a Bachelor of Arts in American Studies and Sociology from Sarah Lawrence College, a writing-intensive liberal arts college, where I amassed a portfolio of over 500 pages worth of research papers. I have also given several talks and presentations over the years including a TEDx talk. My style of tutoring is collaborative and student-centered. I believe in meeting the student at his or her own level and building up from there. I am passionate about education, in particular subjects like writing, history, and sociology, and I will begin to pursue a PhD this fall in the hopes of one day becoming a professor. When I am not reading for my research, I try to find time to read for fun; I also enjoy spending time with my dogs and drinking good coffee.
Hi there! I'm a part-time graduate student studying public health and data science at NYU, and in undergrad, I double majored in anthropology and biology at UVA. I'm originally from the Washington, DC area, but I currently live in NYC where I work as a research analyst at a healthcare real estate investment trust.My first job at 16 sparked my passion for teaching, when I was a math instructor at Mathnasium. I taught all levels of math through Calculus AB/BC to students ages 4-19. I've had the opportunity to gain more experience since, TA'ing chemistry in college and even getting to design and teach my own 2-credit anthropology seminar.I hope to instill the understanding that learning is lifelong and gradual, and I believe students deserve patience and respect while they navigate their own learning styles -- I'm excited to work alongside other passionate and curious minds while helping you ace your exams in the process :)
Reflecting on my educational experiences, I appreciate the immeasurable impact that my former teachers and professors have contributed to my academic success. As a recent graduate, I realize the skills and knowledge acquired in their classrooms have been instrumental in creating opportunities for my academic, personal, and career advancement. Therefore, as a tutor, I hope to inspire the same level of confidence that will enable my students to think critically and bestow upon them the knowledge, motivation, and strategies needed to succeed in their academic endeavors.As an experienced student who has navigated across the spectrum of academia, I know how stressful exam preparation / grade performance can be for ambitious students. With my proven method of test preparation that I used for the SAT, GRE, and GMAT, I can help students plan and execute a strategy that will improve their scores. Similarly, from achieving 700 on the SAT Math to writing a 90 page graduate dissertation, I possess a range of math/language skills that I can pass to my students so that they can surpass their peers and rise to the top of the class.Education:Pittsburgh Central Catholic High School, 2005Pennsylvania State University, 2010BS Supply Chain Management, Smeal College of Business (#5 US News and World Report, Undergraduate Rankings By Major)Stanley Druckenmiller Scholarship RecipientNew York University, 2013 (Accelerated 1 Year Program)MA Cinema Studies, Tisch School of the Arts (#2 USA Today, Graduate Rankings by Major)University of Pittsburgh, 2014 (Accelerated 1 Year Program)MBA, Katz Graduate School of Business (#23 Financial Times, MBA Rankings by Public Institution)May M.

Hi students and parents! I am Sherlin and I have previously tutored college, high school and middle school students on topics of math, science, and other STEM related subjects. I enjoyed guiding others towards the enlightenment they gain after tutoring sessions when they walk away understanding the concepts they walked in not knowing and I want to help more students achieve that!
I am a recent NYU graduate, completing my years of study with a BA in Environmental Studies and a minor in Sustainable Urban Development. I have extensive experience tutoring, as I have worked in numerous tutoring centers throughout high school and university, along with practicing privately as well. My strongest teaching subjects are French, English, History, and Science; the specific subject subcategories can be find under the "Subjects" section of my profile. I sincerely enjoy tutoring and I have found myself gravitating towards this field of education throughout my school career, as I garner a sense of fulfillment through helping others learn in more a personal, one-on-one environment.
Having studied Neuroscience at NYU, I am passionate about using my knowledge and skills to help others, particularly in the areas of development and education.Motivated by the question of what makes learning exciting and memorable, I studied the cognitive and behavioral processes that underlie our perceptions, emotions, and decisions. I tutor math and science at various grade levels. I try to make learning efficient by recognizing problem areas early.I am particularly interested in the development of independent thinking and self-directed learning. I am committed to using my skills to support and empower individuals as they navigate their educational journeys.
I can't make you work hard, but I can help you work smart.
I am a teacher with over 8 years of tutoring and classroom experience. I am passionate about personalizing my tutoring sessions to the student's needs and strengths.
I am a personable and enthusiastic educator with more than a decade of tutoring and classroom teaching experience. I started as a peer tutor in high school and continued working as a tutor and Teaching Assistant in college. After receiving a degree in Biochemistry from NYU, I joined the Peace Corps, where I was assigned to teach high school Math, Science, and English. I loved teaching so much that I stayed to continue teaching and tutoring even after my tour of service had ended. After returning to the US, I received my MPH in 2018 and my PhD in 2026. Because of my extensive and varied experience, I am willing and able to teach students of all ages and learning styles.
I am a graduate of New York University. I received my Bachelor of Science in Childhood (G 1-6) Education and Childhood (G1-6) Special Education. I have gotten my teacher certification in the state of New York, right after graduating. After graduating from NYU, I taught English to students in Elementary School in Korea (G1-6) and I have taught all different levels. I am now pursuing a master's of Education in English Language Learner program at Vanderbilt University. I am passionate about elementary education and teaching English as a foreign language. In my experience of learning and teaching elementary school, I always try to make the activity more engaging and fun. In my spare time, I like to listen to music, watch tv, and hang out with friends.
After graduating from NYU's Gallatin school with an individualized major in Art History, Writing, and Studio Art, I have gone on to enroll in Hunter College's Graduate School of Education where I am studying Childhood and Special Education. English tutoring is my speciality. I especially enjoy tutoring reading, grammar, phonics, reading comprehension, essay writing, and ACT prep.I approach tutoring with patience and am mindful of each student's individual learning needs. I enjoy working with students to reach their unique goals, and am happiest when students are satisfied with and proud of their improvements and accomplishments.
I attended a Montessori school as a child and one of the most important things I gained from that experience was a sense of ownership over my own learning. It is easy for students to feel like passive participants in their own education and whether a student thrives or struggles in school often has as much to do with whether they have learned to play the game of getting good grades as it does with actual learning. When I work with a student I strive to form a personal connection with them and between them and the subject we are working on with the goal of helping them not only achieve their short term goals, but approach the subject in a more positive, productive way. One of my greatest strengths as a tutor is my empathy and attention to each student's individual point of view; everybody has different ways of learning most productively and I strive not to drill in concepts, but to help students see how they can best approach material to make it intuitive and natural to themselves.
An NYU graduate with a masters and bachelors in psychology specializing in clinical psychology and neuroscience. Due to working in research, I have a knowledge of mathematics, statistics, and biology. I also have a passion for sharing my knowledge and helping people achieve their full academic potential.
Hello! My name is Tom and I am intervention specialist with Cincinnati Public Schools. Presently, I teach students in the 4th, 5th and 6th grade and I specialize in reading, writing and math. I have some training in Orton Gillingham as well and I have used that method to assist students with early literacy skills including phonemic awareness, fluency, comprehension and vocabulary. In math, I can offer support in streamlining multistep math problems and offer opportunities for repeated practice, anchor charts for multistep problems and use of visuals to support visual learners. My approach is calm, patient and flexible. Reach out if you have any questions! Let's make learning fun!
I went to college at NYU Abu Dhabi, the world's honors college, where I obtained a Bachelor of Arts in psychology, and I attended high school in New Hampshire at Phillips Exeter Academy. I'm currently applying for medical schools and hope to matriculate in the fall of 2017.I tutor a broad range of high school and college subjects, but my favorites by far are Spanish and chemistry. I started studying Spanish when I was 10 years old, and fell in love with the idea that suddenly I could communicate with a whole other community of people. Since becoming fluent in Spanish, I've continued to pursue my love of languages by studying Arabic and Mandarin Chinese in school, as well as picking up German from my Austrian family and French from my travels. I'm currently teaching myself Russian with the online learning software Duolingo.Chemistry has always been my favorite of the three core sciences, as it's more concretely observable than much of modern physics, but more connected to underlying physical principles than biology. My approach to teaching chemistry is to always keep in mind its connection to the other sciences, which can facilitate a better grasp on many chemical concepts.My approach to tutoring is based in the Harkness philosophy of teaching, which gives a great deal of responsibility to the student to figure things out. I will make sessions as interactive as possible, using as many non-academic resources as I can in order to help students think of subjects as life skills rather than material they must know for a test. I want students to be motivated to learn for the sake of learning something new, rather than simply to pass a test.When I'm not tutoring or writing my medical school applications, I enjoy teaching myself new languages and reading works by authors such as Haruki Murakami, Ernest Hemingway, and James Joyce. I also love to travel whenever I get the chance, and most recently have visited Ireland, Norway, and Austria.
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!
Hello! I'd like to be your tutor. My approach is grounded in a holistic method that sees writing as both a skill and a form of expression. I work with middle school, high school, and college students to strengthen expository and creative writing. With teaching experience at North Carolina State University, I guide students through the writing process while tailoring sessions to their needs, background, and interests, helping them foster identity, confidence, & a strong, authentic voice.
I have a Bachelor's Degree in French and International Relations and a Master's Degree in Urban Planning from New York University. I have always loved traveling, and I actually got to travel abroad for the first time on my own, when I was 15 years old. I stayed with a French family for a month in Lille. I loved it so much that I went back again the next summer. Then I got to spend my entire Junior year of college in Paris! It was wonderful to be able to attend classes at the Sorbonne, one of the oldest universities in the world, as well as the Paris Institute of Political Sciences (Sciences Po). After college and grad school, I've continued to travel abroad as much as possible, and I have always kept up my French language skills along to way. I'm also pretty decent at Spanish, am learning Greek, and have a little background in Italian too. I tutor students in French, and I find that the best way to learn it is to make it fun. Yes, of course we can't avoid learning the grammar, vocabulary, spelling, etc., but it's nice to mix in songs, games, clips from cinema and television, even cooking recipes. I feel bringing some of those things into the virtual classroom helps engage students and make them more eager to want to learn the language.
I am currently a first year student at NYU Tisch School of the Arts. I am pursuing a degree in drama, with a concentration in directing. I have been a natural leader since I was young and I enjoy teaching and guiding others very much. I was an instructor at Kumon Learning Center throughout my junior and senior year of high school as well as a tutor for the National Honor Society. I received outstanding scores on the SAT, specifically in math, which I received a perfect score.In my free time, I love to read, specifically books that discuss the existentialism, philosophy, and religion. I also enjoy writing. I am a singer/songwriter and an award winning playwright.I have a passion for teaching and I really enjoy working with kids, and I look forward to meeting and working with you!
I have tutored on several different accounts, with a range of students. I typically tutor students in math, science, and music, since many students have difficulty understanding their real world applications. I work with the students in how to see the bigger picture of their textbook problems, which then help them remember the details. Knowing why and how these subjects relate to the real world makes them easier, and more fun to learn. I also rely on relating to my student; many times a student will find it comforting to know that their tutor has been tutored. This re-establishes trust, and is encouraging in the sense that everyone needs help at some point. I have been on both sides of the spectrum and have developed an efficient and fun way of teaching students because of that.
