My background in mechanical engineering and PhD has given me extensive experience working through complex technical and analytical problems. Throughout my career, I've often helped others understand challenging engineering concepts by breaking them down into clear, manageable steps. My tutoring philosophy focuses on building understanding rather than just getting to the answer. I enjoy helping students develop the problem-solving mindset that engineering requires and guiding them through.

Math tutor specializing in Pre-Algebra, Algebra I and Algebra II, helping students build real understanding and confidence in math. I hold a Master's degree in Computer Science from RPI with a minor in mathematics. I have 3 years experience tutoring specifically Algebra and Pre-Calculus. My approach emphasizes clear explanations, step-by-step reasoning, and adapting lessons to each student's learning style. Drawing on years of mentoring and real-world problem solving, I help students strengthen core skills, improve performance in class, and feel more confident tackling homework, tests, and future math courses.

I am a current sophomore at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, where I am majoring in Biology as part of the 7 Year Accelerated Medical Program. I am also minoring in Healthcare Economics and Policy. My favorite subjects in school are Chemistry, Biology, and Math, but I also enjoy the process of writing and editing thought provoking essays. During high school, I spent time tutoring for the National Honor Society. My approach to tutoring is to teach the concepts in a simplistic manner and reinforcing the concepts while adding difficulty through effective practice problems. In my free time, I have recently found myself reading, working out, drawing, and spending time with my siblings.

I'm an undergraduate student at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute studying Electrical Engineering. I have years of experience tutoring and teaching math, English, physics, and other subjects to students from elementary school to seniors in high school. I like to relate problems to the real world and provide students with a foundation to figure things out for themselves without giving them answers.This may all sound pretty bland, but I have a variety of hobbies and I like making learning more exciting than students may think. I'm a big skier and my other hobbies include a variety of sports, weightlifting, and playing instruments.

I have recently retired from the HiTech industry as an Engineering Executive with a Professional Engineering License practicing more than 35yrs. Additionally, my MS Mechanical Engineering Degree was focused on Structural Mechanics as a specialty. Since retirement from industry, I have been a substitute High School teacher for Math and Science along with being a Varsity Tutor. Both educational roles allow me to be a mentor by helping future STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering & Math) students grow educationally, and Engineers pass their FE & PE Exams in achieving Engineering Licensure. The FE & PE License Exam Curriculum that I have developed is highly successful with over a 90% passing rate for those students tutored.

I don't think there is such thing as a "smart" person. Anyone can learn anything through hard work and persistence.Network Specialist at Connecticut On-line Computer Center. Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute B.S. Computer and Systems Engineer, Class of 2016.

I am a currently a civil engineering student at an engineering university, and I'm currently working on my Bachelors. I have three years of experience tutoring and teaching math, science, computer science, and test prep. I have three years of experience teaching students between the ages of 3-17. I enjoy working with students, and primarily work with them regarding their math and humanities skills. I love tutoring in mostly everything, but my favorite topics to tutor in are math and history.I have had a lot of practice in all that I teach, and I believe that any student, as long as he or she is willing to put the work in, can succeed. I love working with students so that I can tap into that potential, and watch them grow. I believe in hands-on learning, and being a current student myself, I understand the frustration, and I definitely understand the struggle. Persistence is key to understanding, and I am willing to communicate that to students.Outside of academia, I am incredibly interested in the hands-on application of engineering. I am a member of my collegiate chapter of Engineers Without Borders. I had the opportunity to travel to Nicaragua on an assessment trip to work with a community of over 1,500 people. My chapter will be tackling a water systems project there, and I was fortunate enough to be able to travel there with two other peers.

I hope to help students convey their messages or goals concisely and straightforwardly through essay editing and support. With my extensive background in both Math and English tutoring from K through 12th grade, as well as a specialized focus on college admissions support and application development (including standardized testing support), I am confident that students will be able to greatly improve their literacy and writing with some tips and new skills.

Having tutoring for over several years now, I have gained an immense amount of teaching experiences working with students from junior high school, high school, and college both undergrad and a few graduate. I know what it feels like when someone is having difficulty in a particular subject, they often get frustrated, angry, exhausted, and stressed after working on problem sets in physics and/or mathematics for an excessive amount of time and still cannot find a reasonable solution to solve the problem. There are also times when students are unable to start. My job as a tutor is to ensure that they can fully overcome these obstacles and solve the problems with ease in a coherent and thorough manner without any difficulty. The way I go about eliminating these obstacles and difficulties that each student is facing, is by creating multiple teaching strategies. Some of my strategies involved the making of a new lesson plan detailing important concepts and terms covered in class, supplemented with examples and textbook materials. Other strategies involved the use of a step by step procedure that will help to break down concepts into simpler terms and definition until the students are able to gain an insight on how to solve the problem.To help the students engaged into the problems being discussed, I often choose real life examples and applications to demonstrate how problems of these types can be used to solve real life situations.As a graduate with a BS dual degree in electrical engineering and mathematics from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, I've leveraged the skills taught to me to developed software for hardware platforms in control systems, flight controls. and electric motor machinery. Also, the skills taught to me has led me to designed hardware for sustainable energy subsystems. These subsystems are often successful because I'm able to create various plans and step by step procedure similar to the ones I used for my students, before starting the developmental phase. My interest are in Flight Controls and Applied Mathematics and I look forward in pursuing higher education in Aerospace/Aeronautical Engineering in the next few years to come. I'm looking forward to working with as many students as possible and assist them with the best possible teaching strategy, so they can be the next or future generation of Doctors. Lawyers, Engineer, Scientist or Mathematician.

I'm a sophomore at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute studying chemical engineering with a minor in sustainability studies.Outside of school, I perform research at RPI. As part of my research, I perform experiments with vegetable dyes native to Ghana to discover an alternative to synthetic dyes causing water pollution.I am also an active member of Chemistry Society in which I network, organize and volunteer at club events, and perform chemistry demonstrations and presentations as outreach to encourage younger students to become more involved in STEM.I am my class' RPI Class of 2020 Representative. This means that I collaborate as part of the class council to plan class events and fundraisers.I also am a member of Resident Student Association where I lead groups as event chair organizing events and communicates as the liaison for the Learning Assistants and Resident Assistants of the hall.I am active in my school's Outing Club and am organizing and running the welcome day hike for the incoming freshman.

I am currently a first-year medical student.I decided to pursue this difficult and lengthy path only after facing several challenges along the way. Throughout my childhood and my high school career, test-taking always seemed to be a challenge. I pushed to get the best scores I could, but something was wrong. I had a lack of direction. I needed a mentor.When I had my first mentor, I wasn't sure he would be the right one. We worked together for some time, but some of his characteristics were not compatible with my liking. After about two more mentors, I finally selected an intelligent, organized, and serious mentor that was heavily invested in my success. To have a mentor that is invested in your success is a fantastic feeling. Suddenly, my motivation increased, my grades improved and I was accepted into very good colleges and programs. That was my goal. I couldn't reach that goal without my mentor. My mentor taught me more than just English, Writing, ACT/SAT, he taught me humility, determination, and confidence. For these reasons, I am still in contact with him today.As a tutor-- mentor-- I will help my mentee achieve their goals (academic and mental). I will work with them hour by hour to the best of my ability to deliver what is necessary to achieve their goals. Education matters and your knowledge is tested through your scores, so they matter. The only way to win is through effective collaboration, mental determination, and hard work. I want to work with my mentee to figure out what I can do for him or her.

With more than a decade of experience teaching and tutoring mathematics at both the university and test-prep levels, I bring a strong combination of content expertise, online instructional experience, and a genuine passion for helping students build confidence and achieve academic success.

As an Industrial Engineer currently completing a Master of Science in Human Factors Engineering, I bring a strong analytical foundation in mathematics, statistics, engineering, and data science. I am passionate about helping people develop the confidence and problem-solving skills necessary for success. Teaching has been a central part of my life since I was 16 years old. I began by coaching young gymnasts, where I learned the importance of patience and adaptability. Since then, I have expanded my teaching experience to include percussion instruction as well as tutoring college-level technical subjects such as linear and matrix algebra, experimental design, and discrete event simulation modeling. I believe that education is most effective when students are actively engaged while learning. By combining my technical background with years of teaching experience, I aim to help students build the skills to succeed independently.

I enjoy learning and I've been a tutor for a long time at different types of tutoring venues over the years. I have bachelors degrees in chemical engineering and chemistry and a PhD in chemical engineering. I am a life-long learner. For the purposes of tutoring, my main proficiency is in chemistry, physics, math, Spanish, ACT/SAT prep, and some English. I think that tutoring is not about teaching but about learning. The student needs to be gain interest via examples, questions, and humor in order to become proficient. A combination of written, visual, and visual aids the learning; advancement occurs over several stages, but should end with the student being able to work on problems as independently as possible.

I recently earned my PhD in Science and Technology Studies from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, where I studied the politics of environmental remediation at the Hanford Site (where the US made plutonium for weapons until the late 80's). It's a dangerous site. It's also dangerous to ask any graduate student about their dissertation, since we can go on for longer than the half-life of plutonium. Don't say I didn't warn you!I am not only obsessed with things that glow in the dark. I am also fascinated with the social sciences, history, literature, philosophy, and writing. My M.A. is in anthropology, and my B.A. is in Sociology. When I tutor, I work hard to help you figure out why all of these subjects are worthy of your passion and effort.I have taught first-year college students, as well as worked individually with thirteen undergraduates to plan, write, and revise their senior theses. My students have included undergraduate social science students as well as those pursuing engineering, science, and business. I have participated in environmental research programs with high school students, and helped to train student activists in places as different as Pullman, WA and Atlanta, GA.I'm excited to work with you, too!

I've worked was a volunteer docent at the American Museum of Natural History while I was in high school, teaching visitors and students about the various dioramas on view and giving demonstrations of phenomena like buoyancy. More recently I had the opportunity to work as a student caller at the Renssealaer Annual Fund, where I got to engage in alumni relations and answer the questions of parents of current students. Although I'd never worked in a sales position before that, my experience there helped me to learn how to talk with people and find out how they work and what interests them.At Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (my alma mater as of May 2015, also known as RPI), I enjoyed having the chance to work with my friends and colleagues and help them with their school work. More than the thrill of problem solving was the satisfaction I got when I helped them understand a problem and work through it themselves. At RPI I studied mathematics although I also had an interest in physics and computer science. As a tutor I look forward to helping you better understand math! The subjects I'm looking to teach include calculus, multivariate calculus, and differential equations, although I can also teach algebra for those who need it.Every student is different and to help them learn it's important to listen to them and decide on how to teach them, either with theory, applied problems, or some other method. This was something I learnt while I was responsible for leading practice sessions for one of my school's martial arts club.In my spare time I am learning how to be a developer and data scientist so I might eventually achieve my goal of one of those careers. I also really enjoy to read, run, and am currently learning how to play the piano, something I have always wanted to do since I was a kid. Teaching myself how to do these things has helped me better appreciate how constructive guidance from a tutor can be.

I go to a well-known university within the technical field. I have been studying computer science for nearly 7 years. I have started an initiative at school to help underclassmen get through coding problems. I teach the way I would've liked to have been taught.

I am an undergraduate student at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, where I major in Mechanical Engineering. I tutor various subjects in math, science, and engineering. Throughout high school and college, I've had some great experiences with instructors who are passionate about teaching. I want to return the favor and help students who are struggling with material that I once struggled with myself. I ensure that my students have mastered the basics before moving on to more complicated topics, and I firmly believe that learning should be a fun, positive experience! Outside of tutoring, I run competitive cross country and track at my college. I'm also into sports/fitness and playing the guitar.

I am a very motivated student who is willing to assist in your learning. My knowledge ranges throughout the STEM curriculum. Topics that I am very interested in are mainly biology-related subjects.

Learning a new subject can be confusing, and the manner in which the information is delivered is as important as what is being said. Making seemingly complicated problems simple is what makes me a proficient tutor. I would love to be given the opportunity to prove it to you. I can tutor almost any Math subject but my favorite discipline to tutor is Physics. I am very enthusiastic about learning HOW things work. I graduated from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in 2010 and obtained a Dual Major in Physics and Applied Mathematics. Additionally, I have been tutoring since the age of fourteen and have tutored for the US Navy! Outside my professional interests, I enjoy cycling, swimming, watching football, and basketball.

I have been a volunteer tutor and tennis and life skills instructor for the past 10 years. I have worked youth and adult of all ages and have achieved success with every age group I have worked with. I love sharing my knowledge with people in a fun and engaging way. I love explaining topics through a variety of interactive and interesting methods. My favorite thing about tutoring is helping people understand why what they are learning is important. Once you know why you learn something you are much more inclined to focus and challenge yourself with it. I believe education is vital in the world today but more importantly having a desire and wanting to learn is significantly more important. I make it my goal to encourage students to become independent learners.

I am a sophomore biology major at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute under the Accelerated Medical Program. Outside of my academics, I am a volunteer for my school's Global Medical Brigades chapter. I also help lead my university's chapter of She's the First to fundraise for girls' education in developing nations. I am most passionate about tutoring STEM subjects, specifically biology, chemistry, and mathematics. I enjoy pushing students to question the knowledge put in front of them and encourage them to be more curious about the world around them and seek out answers.

I graduated from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute with a BS in Civil Engineering in the spring of 2016. During my undergrad, I tutored for two years as a Engineering Statics and Dynamics tutor. As a tutor, I like to follow along with the student so they understand step by step what is happening and where exactly they went wrong. From my experience, poor grades has a lot to do with confidence and is sabatoged by nerves during tests. I will make sure to provide positive remarks to students so they start to feel like the knowledgeable and capable individual that they are.

I have a strong background in science and engineering from RPI, MIT and CMU and attained the degrees of BS, MS and PhD from these universities respectively. I used my education as a engineer for designing nuclear reactors and after retirement I taught engineering subjects at various universities. I enjoy explaining scientific principles and instilling curiosity about the physical world.

As the child of two dedicated educators, a passion for learning and teaching has been instilled in me from a young age. Over the past four years, I've had the privilege of working with children of varying learning abilities, tailoring my approach to meet each student's unique needs. My goal is to create a supportive and engaging environment where every learner can thrive and achieve their potential.

Hello. My name is Peter Elish and I am a tutor. You are entering a world where it is a "win win," meaning you help others with their finances and make money doing so. These licenses are so valuable, that you have the potential to make as much money, if not more money than doctors and lawyers. You do not need a secondary degree, you just need to pass the tests. You would want me as at tutor mainly because of my experience. My expertise is in OPTIONS and MARGIN. I started a broker-dealer from scratch, was a manager of other reps, and was a producer. To see my career path including all the licenses I obtained, view me at Broker Check: https://brokercheck.finra.org/individual/summary/1313689 and see that I had all the licenses. I also was the prime lead instructor for a Series 7 school years ago before publishing training manuals that became the big business we see today. My peers, other broker-dealers, had enough confidence in me to elect me to two different FINRA offices. One was regional office and the other a national position. I sat in on the meetings when FINRA changed the Series 7 test from a single 6 hour exam to the present two exams being the SIE and the Series 7 top off. I passed the Series 3 exam, the National Commodities Futures Exam. If you want to obtain the SIE license, you probably are in one of these categories. You may be doing for the fun of it, looking to get a better understanding of investments, and exploring it as a career. You possibly are in college and wanting an internship at an investment firm. You are hired in the business and need to pass the SIE and the other FINRA exams thereafter. Please understand that these tests are NOT EASY. You must be committed to PASSING the test. Your commitment to passing ensures my commitment to you. Otherwise, I probably am not the right tutor for you. My GOAL is for you to PASS.

I am a Junior Computer Science and Cognitive Science Dual Major at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy, NY. I began tutoring when I was in High School, helping both peers and students in Elementary and Middle School. I am passionate about helping others learn and become the best versions of themselves because I believe it will lead to a more functional society. While I am able to tutor in many subjects, I feel most strongly able to help with Mathematics and Computer Science.

I have always loved math and helping people grow skills and gain confidence with their math studies. If any students are in the Brick, NJ area I am still willing to do IN PERSON TUTORING.

My goal is to make students develop passion in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM). I will not only make them plug numbers into equations, but will relate these equations with real life situations and arts. I believe through this technique of teaching and learning, students will excel in sciences and mathematics, and arts as well.

I have a BS from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Interdisciplinary Science and an MS from Marist College in Information Systems, both in New York. I also have a Six Sigma Green Belt and am a Microsoft Certified Professional.In addition to my work in IT I have taught at both the high school and college level. I've taught and tutored several levels of math and computer science.My mother was a teacher and so the importance of a good education was imprinted upon me at an early age. I believe that the role of a teacher or tutor is to help guide the student to discover the answers for themselves. It's not the easiest path but it's the best.Currently between IT assignments, I enjoy trivia games, movies, TV animation (South Park, Simpsons) and spending time with my new girlfriend.

Hi - I'm Peter. I've always had a preference for math and science, which explains my undergrad choice in engineering. I graduated from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute with a degree in Mechanical Engineering. I received my MBA (Industrial Management) from the Wharton Graduate Division at U. of Pa. My primary work experience prior to teaching was in business planning and finance (more math). I started teaching because I enjoyed helping students at Baruch College prep for graduate school entrance exams (GMAT, LSAT, GRE). Later on, I aided community college students to break through their difficulties in basic math, algebra, quantitative literacy and statistics/probability (remedial math courses). Many of these students were the first in their families to attend college. I've been teaching math for 25+ years, both in a classroom setting and, more recently, on-line. I prefer to use a whiteboard and other visuals to present the problems and explain the methodology and steps that lead to the solution. If you are my student I would encourage you to first think through the problem and work it through on your own whenever possible, as it helps to foster self-confidence. Then I can step in and assist where I can to guide you to the correct solution. I like to put myself in my student's place in order to understand what hurdle(s) they need to overcome to solve the math question. I can explain approaches to the solution in several ways until it makes sense to you. I am available pretty much during the week or on weekends from late morning until early evenings and can make exceptions when necessary. I would be happy to hold an initial exploratory session at no charge just so we can get to know each other and agree on what we can accomplish together.

Following my career as a professional scientist, I have spent the past five years teaching students in both classroom and tutoring situations. In my role as tutor, my students enjoy the benefit that I can answer the question, "When will I use this material in the real world?" with compelling and interesting examples from my life, ranging from telescopes in space to programming graphics for video games. When tutoring, I adapt the instruction and explanation to best match my students' learning styles, interests, and conceptual difficulties. I look forward to helping your daughter or son reach their educational goals and enjoy greater success in their future life.

In terms of credentials, I have a Bachelors of Science in Biomedical Engineering from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI). My main area of academic focus was in biomaterials, which includes (but is not limited to) the study of cell biology, design and use of biological implants, and the design and delivery of drugs. I also pursued some undergraduate research in the area of Biocomputation, which involved utilizing algorithms to simulate biological processes. I also worked as a laboratory teaching assistant for Physics II for two years which involved working with a laboratory section of over 40 undergraduate students of various majors as well as helping to staff designated tutoring sessions for the course material, and briefly as a one-on-one Biomechanics tutor for a few months. I also participated in a few outreach programs (with RPI's Biomedical Engineering Graduate Council) which aimed to get young children involved and interested in science. I also studied the fundamentals of computer programming and data structures during my senior year of university, and have had an interest in programming ever since.Outside of academics, I've been playing the bass guitar since I was 15, with two years of receiving formal instruction. I love playing Squash as well as Soccer (though not as well as the former, plus RIP USMNT but at least Poland qualified), and I also enjoy jogging as well. I also like to both read and write sci-fi, fantasy, and non-fiction currently. My favorite movie is Blade Runner, and no, I have not seen the sequel yet.In terms of my own philosophy on education and my potential role in it, I believe that at the bare minimum, a high school diploma is a key requirement for one to be able have success in the adult world. I believe that I have the potential (through the knowledge I have obtained and my ability to problem solve) to help students in need work towards achieving that end goal, and more should they desire. So, that's why I'm here.

Hi!I'm a graduate of Norwalk Community College in CT and am currently attending RPI.I achieved an Associates degree in Engineering Science from NCC and am now pursuing a Bachelor's in Mechanical Engineering at RPI.I was a tutor for a year and a half at NCC and the subjects I tutored were Math (low to high level), Physics, and a bit of Chemistry.I would definitely say my favorite subject to tutor is math. No matter what an individuals major everybody has to go through some level of it. So as a tutor I've been exposed to a multitude of people who I've been able to teach and learn from.When I tutor I prefer to let the students "teach" themselves. I am more than willing to help along the way but my goal is to see my students continually progress until they are self sufficient.Outside of tutoring I'm at the gym or hanging out with some friends.There's definitely more to that, so come and find out more in a session or two!
