I am a graduate of Gettysburg College with a B.A. in English and Theatre, SUNY Stony Brook with a M.F.A. in Dramaturgy and Dowling College with a M.S. in Secondary English. I spend 11 years as Associate Artistic Director for a Long Island based theatre company as well as Adjunct Assistant Professor at Dowling College in the Theatre Department. I have a passion for English literature as well as its historical implications. As a creative professional in both theatrical endeavors and educational pursuits, I will be guided by my values and shall give it my interest, my enthusiasm, my passion, and most importantly, myself. In everything I do I will present materials in a clear, interesting and innovative way, ensuring each student individually to help them take center stage and achieve academic goals. In my free time I enjoy catching up with favorite television shows or films, bowling, as well as acting in or directing theatrical productions.
I am an experienced multi-subject teacher, who has had the great fortune to have been educated in several countries, and to teach in several countries. I received my education at Manhattan School of Music, Columbia University, the Universitaet Mozarteum, in Salzburg, Austria, University of Virginia, and Oxford. I have taught in the US, UK, Austria and Japan, and lived in all of those countries, plus Iceland, and for a shorter period in both France, and Turkey. My students have ranged in age from kindergarten, to adults, and have spoken many languages. I grew up trilingual, and added quite a few more languages along the way. I have the distinction of being one of the few non-native speakers of fluent Icelandic.I have a passion for learning. every situation is an opportunity to learn, and I enjoy encouraging others in their learning endeavors.In my spare time, I enjoy flying (piloting) aircraft, cooking, especially new ethnic recipes, collecting antiques, and new languages, and traveling to visit old friends, and new places.
I am a graduate of Hamilton College in upstate NY and recently received my Master's degree in Physiology & Biophysics from Stony Brook University. I am a pre-med student with a Bachelor's degree in Economics with minors in Chemistry and Biology. I will be starting medical school in the fall and have experience in the application process. I enjoy providing advice and feedback to individuals who are on a similar track.I am the oldest of 4 children, therefore I have a lot of experience with helping young students learn, as well as a lot of patience. Most recently, I worked as a STEM instructor at Launch Math and Science Centers in NYC on the Upper West Side. That experience made me realize how passionate I am about engaging students in the STEM field and education in general and how important it is to make learning a fun process. I love tutoring students in math, science, and economics because I have a strong background and foundation in these areas. I also wish that I had been introduced to the STEM and economics fields at a younger age, therefore my goal with tutoring is to inspire the students that I work with. I love tutoring in economics because I believe it provides essential concepts for any field that a student is eager to pursue. For example, I have found economics to be extremely applicable to the healthcare field, which is one of the main reasons that I chose to major in it.In addition, I lived abroad in Morocco for 10 years and had the opportunity to help students prepare for their AP exams and applications to universities in the United States. My long-term career goals include going to medical school and becoming an Ob/gyn. I hope to someday treat women in underserved regions of the world. In the meantime, I enjoy working in my research lab, cooking, traveling, and kickboxing.
I am a Sophomore college student currently studying Mechanical Engineering at Stony Brook University. I strongly encourage and aims to motivate high school students to become leaders in their careers as engineers, expand the idea of engineering as a means of improving the quality of life, and increase the diversity of the engineering profession.
My name is Rohan, and I recently graduated from Stony Brook University with a BS in psychology. I am starting medical school in the fall of 2017, and I hope I can use my current free time to help others achieve their academic goals. I want to be a tutor because I enjoy helping people learn. I have been a teaching assistant for two different biology classes during college, and those were hands-down my favorite experiences during my undergraduate time. Also, I truly believe that teaching others helps me learn the material at a higher level. As a future doctor, it is very important to be able to teach people things. You want to be able to express yourself to other students and patients and talk to them in a vernacular that they can understand. You want to create analogies and tell stories that are helpful; only then will people actually internalize the information and actually be able to apply it to different problems and in the real world. I promise to give my full time and effort to each of my students, and I cant wait to embark on a new journey with all of them.
I'm a medical resident. looking to tutor in biology, anatomy, math, and MCAT prep. Teaching is one of my passions, and I have tutored since I was in high school. I continued to tutor while at Stony Brook University where I graduated with a double major in applied math and bioinformatics/computational biology. Due to unfortunate circumstances, I need to stay home for the next few months. I do not want to stop my tutoring so here I am looking to help students virtually! Medical school has made biology my favorite subject to tutor in as I've really nailed in me how to learn and understand a lot of material in a short amount of time. Medical school has taught me many approaches and tactics to making learning more efficient I wish I knew about earlier. I aim to share these methods with my students to make them stand out from the rest.
I am an undergraduate student at Stonybrook University. I am a biology major on the pre-medicine track. I recently graduated from high school with an advanced diploma in Math and Science, achieving a 95+ score in all regents tests. I have tutored students at my temple and at my high school. Even though I have tutored many subjects, my expertise is in highschool math and science classes. I also teach chess, having a 1200+ rapid rating. I greatly believe in teaching with fun and passion and I try my best to make the learning process for my student as fun as possible. In my spare time, I usually practice magic tricks and I might incorporate tricks in my lessons.
I am currently pursuing a Master of Arts in Liberal Studies (MA/LS) with focus on Business and Marketing at Stony Brook University, NY, USA. Since 2008, I have been working as a Teaching Assistant and Substitute Teacher in private and public schools in NY USA.I have served for three years as the Head of the Business & Marketing Department in Bahria College, Islamabad, Pakistan. During my time as Head, I worked directly under the Principal to develop new curricula for A’ Levels and O’ Levels, interviewing new candidates, organizing college-wide events, organizing tours for new students and managing all associated paperwork and correspondence.Simultaneously, I had the privilege of teaching economics and business studies to the O’ & A’ Levels (the British System equivalent to Grade 9-12 & first two years of Undergraduate Studies).In that capacity, I strongly believe in a philosophy of lifelong learning to meet the challenges of global competence. Keeping this vision in mind, I have been able to remain sensitive to the needs of students for exploring comprehensive multi-disciplinary studies, preparation for work, academic and social competence and a sense of citizenship that incorporates the cultures of all students into instruction.These are some of the courses I have completed towards accomplishing my Master of Arts in Liberal Studies (MA/LS) that have widened my perspective and vision towards HR and its relation with the Business needs and Management: Ethics in Management, Organizational Change Management, Foundations of Human Resource Management, Survey of Labor/Employment Relations, HR Management Workshop, and The Uses and Abuses of Technology.
Pursuing a Grad Degree in Biomedical Engineering following an undergrad degree in the same field, am looking to build new ways to interface technology with our humanity and society! As such, I am well versed in a breadth of STEM fields, and have plenty of experience teaching them as well. Since my interests are in research, I stay away with dead-end "memorize this equation" methods taught in schools, since to reach any higher level of understanding, one needs basic understanding first. I believe this to be critical, especially if you are pursuing any sort of higher end programming in your future.
This letter is to introduce myself and acknowledge my interest in tutoring. I am a first year graduate student at Seton Hall University working towards my Ph.D. at Counseling Psychology. I have got my Bachelors of Science in Pre-medicine and Psychology and my Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I aspire to be a professor once I get my doctorate because teaching has always been a passion along with continuing clinical work and research.I graduated with a Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Syracuse University in Dec, 2016. During my time there, I have worked with faculty members in teaching masters level course (Psychopathology), organizing conferences, presenting on topic of interest and mentoring incoming masters students. Through these experiences I have gained leadership, organization and teaching skills that will highly coincide with the job requirements. I am well aware of the dedication, effort, creativity and commitment required for becoming a tutor.My teaching and mentor style is to empower students. I believe the act of teaching is creative and fluid where the teacher has to mold their teaching style according to the student's requirements and learning style. I am a firm believer that every person have their own unique learning style and it can be highly beneficial for the student if they feel supported and safe to take risks and build confidence in the subject matter they are struggling in.I am proficient in grade and high school level reading, writing, math, algebra, statistics. Geometry and Biology. As these topics can be challenging and concepts hard to grasp, I like to use creative, fun ways to relate them to real life problems to make better meaning of it.Outside of school and research, I like to hike with my puppy, read and paint.I appreciate your time to review my credentials and experience. Thank you for your consideration.
I am a rising junior at Stony Brook University majoring in Chemical and Molecular Engineering. My passion for tutoring started off in high school as I explained certain topics to my friends once in a while. Not only did this make me realize that it made me understand those topics better, but more importantly, it made me feel good knowing that I was able to teach something to someone successfully. This passion evolved as I became a paid tutor for the SAT test in my senior year of high school, a teaching assistant for Calc IV in my third semester of college, and a residential tutor for Organic Chemistry in my fourth semester of college. Currently, my favorite subjects to tutor are Chemistry, the SAT, and Algebra/Calculus I. I can make complex concepts and questions simpler by implementing various tips and tricks that I have learned throughout my time of learning and teaching these subjects. My teaching philosophy revolves around my belief that everyone can learn a subject, they just have to be taught the right way.

I received my Bachelor of Engineering in Mechanical Engineering degree at SUNY Stony Brook. I received my Master of Arts in Teaching with a Concentration in Mathematics degree at Quinnipiac University. I taught high school mathematics for 9 years. I tutor Pre-Algebra, Algebra I, Geometry, and Algebra II. My favorite subject to teach is Geometry, because once I was afraid of Geometry, and now I love it. I want to show my students how not to be afraid! My tutoring style involves lots of questions. I love asking questions to pull prior knowledge out of students, to teach them to utilize the "tools in their toolbox" to solve the problem. They have the knowledge; it is my job to bring them that confidence to pick the right tools to do the job. I love being active! I love to walk, hike, and roller blade. I also like to do strength training. I am a huge football fan. I am a Patriots fan, but I like to watch any team and to see a good game. I enjoy inviting friends and family over on a Sunday to watch football.
As a High School Spanish Teacher, I have the experience to tutor students with different learning styles. My goal as a Tutor is to simplify the topics that students find to be challenging, making the learning process meaningful and fun. I have a B.A. in Spanish with a minor in Education from Queens College. I have an M.A. in Liberal Studies from Stony Brook University, in New York. I have been prepping students for the Spanish Regents, currently known as the FLB, with success in speaking, listening, reading and writing for 11 years. Although I was born and raised in the United States, I attended high school in Buenos Aires, Argentina. I currently live in the coastal town of Bayville, NY. I enjoy paddle boarding, bike riding, reading and going to the movies.
Recalling my educational experiences, I am mindful of the significant impact that teachersmake on the lives of young people. I realize that the skills and knowledge acquired will be used by young people throughout life. I am a NYSED Childhood Education Grades 1-6 certified teacher (with extensions in both Early Childhood Education and Special Education). I currently have the privilege of teaching students of varied academic/age levels and diverse cultural backgrounds, as a substitute teacher. Years of experience authenticates my ability to help students grasp current Common Core State Standards in Math and English, along with fundamental skills in Science and Social Studies. I very much enjoy working with students of various ages and helping them improve in all academic subjects. I am passionate in working with them to effectively build their confidence in their ability to achieve academically.
Growing up, I helped tutor my little siblings with their homework. This is one of the things that ignited my passion for teaching. To me, there is nothing more rewarding than helping someone understand a topic. I believe that the best way to teach is by using examples to ensure that the student can understand the basics of a subject. Following high school, I attended Stony Brook University and obtained a Bachelor's of Science in Physics. I plan on going to grad school and obtaining my masters degree in teaching. I am tutoring general and regents physics as well as algebra 1 and 2.
I am a recent medical school graduate from Dow University. Using proven techniques to memorize and understand key concepts, I teach my students how to break down the most difficult questions. It can be an overwhelming task to memorize the massive amount of information expected of a student in an anatomy or physiology course. The key is not memorization, but pacing yourself, practice and placing key concepts at the beginning and end of each session. Having a basic understanding of how our brain memorizes and processes information is an essential prerequisite for all students. I have over 5 years of tutoring experience from medical school in subjects including Anatomy, Physiology, Pharmacology, Microbiology and many other health sciences courses.
Long ago in the land of Stony Brook, one man's quest to find out what makes a good story began. For 8 semesters he studied why the pen is mightier than the sword. Between classes and trying to unwind from the day's deep discussions of literature, video games provided a sweet escape from the mentally taxing work and a reminder that people can still have fun writing. James has been playing games since he was three. Sometimes the two would even blend and like a rouge pick-pocketing a noble, breath of the wild was completed while complaining about The Scarlet letter. For social gatherings, trading card games and Dungeons and Dragons were the best option. School gave him the knowledge of analytic writing to argue any point, D&D allowed him to have fun writing about fantasy and science fiction. The love of fantasy comes from a mentor, a step father who hoards comics and books. The classics were covered at school and Iron Man was taken care of at home. Before his time at the Brook, he had won an award for writing in high school which, kick started his studies, and bought a few new cards too. Writing about games is a passion that has guided many a paper and hopefully, will have his name go down in history. A passion for teaching will allow him to share not only his love and content knowledge on various topics, but convey the power of words to help make the world a better place.
I am a recent graduate of Stony Brook University with a Bachelor of Science degree in Applied Math and Statistics. Currently, I am studying for the FM and P exams in Actuarial Sciences. Mathematics has always been my strongest and most favorite subject. I was on the Math team for several years and participated in various regional Math competitions. I also have years of experience tutoring in formal and informal settings in a myriad of math subjects ranging from Algebra to Calculus IV.It is my passion to show students the beauty in math and disprove the many misconceptions of it being difficult and nonsensical, which I often find stems from poor communication between students and their teachers. As a tutor, I aim to rectify that problem with one-on-one sessions designed to tackle concepts from a different angle, that perhaps the teacher had overlooked. There is no better feeling to me than that moment of clarity when a student finally understands something they had been previously struggling with.Aside from math and studying, I also play guitar and write music in my spare time. Although many people probably would never think so, math and music are actually codependent, and one could not exist without the other. They are both natural occurrences, and I consider their relationship a unique form of art. My individual love for them both has given me a greater appreciation and understanding of them separately.
With a Bachelor's and a Master's degree in Biomedical Engineering, my education focused heavily in calculus, math at all levels and physics. Biomedical Engineering also helped developed my biological knowledge.I have experience as a TA during my undergrad and graduate years. I have been teaching in a plethora of subjects for more than 2 years. With experience in labs and research, a publish author with three scientific papers, I will be able to help however needs help in these areas.
I am a third year medical student at Wayne State University tutoring math and science. I graduated Summa Cum Laude from Stony Brook University with a major in Biochemistry. I first developed my passion for teaching from 7 years of experience as a martial arts and boxing instructor. I was able to develop my tutoring skill during my time at Stony Brook where I worked as both a calculus tutor and a chemistry teaching assistant. Yes, I am a nerd but you will find that I am very personable and really care about helping students reach their full potential!
I graduated with a neuroscience concentration in biology from Stony Brook University recently where I was also a teaching assistant for biology classes. I am a tutor for middle and high school biology and chemistry, as well as elementary and middle school math. The role of an excellent tutor is to provide clarity and context - to act as a guide in learning, not an answer key. I understand how to deconstruct complex ideas into basic concepts and to build knowledge on strong fundamentals. Rather than bombard a student with information, I want to communicate and receive feedback to understand how they learn. One-on-one tutoring allows students the opportunity to learn at their own pace which is especially important for those in the NYC school system. Aside from academics, I enjoy writing/ playing music, cooking, and traveling.
Hello prospective students!My name is Naomi and I am currently a rising 4th-year medical student. I have my B.S. in Biology with a concentration in Neuroscience, and an M.S. in Biomedical Sciences.

I have a great love for the sciences and look forward to working with you.
I am currently completing my fourth year of the B.A. / M.A. Combined Program in English and the Teacher Preparation Program at Stony Brook University. With a strong background in literature, composition, and teaching methods, I believe that I am prepared for the dynamic and exciting challenges of tutoring students for their English classes. Through my coursework, I have designed lesson plans based on the Common Core State Standards. During my field experience in diverse Long Island school districts, I observed engaging lessons and had the privilege of observing the administration and grading of the English Regents Exam. As President and Co-Founder of the Stony Brook Book Club, I led weekly discussions and created a comfortable and intellectually stimulating environment. As a teaching assistant in the Massapequa Public Schools Summer Music Program, I taught students new skills and concepts while encouraging their continued growth. I believe that every student can find a book he enjoys and with the right practice, can express himself through writing. I love to read, bake, and scrapbook in my spare time.

I love tutoring and helping students facing any difficulties in Math and Statistics. I served as a teaching assistant for basic Mathematics and Statistics courses when I was completing my Masters degree at Stony Brook University. I received my Bachelors degree from Columbia University, where I also served as a tutor. I have also tutored countless number of CUNY students studying to pass the CUNY Assessment test in Math. Each student is unique, and I understand that the techniques and style I use is tailored directly towards the needs of the student. I am a very good listener, and I try my best to make my students very comfortable at all times. My main objective is to provide the best service available to my students, and the student is always my number one priority.
I'm a biology student at Stony Brook University and a past researcher in neuroscience and x-ray protein crystallography. My background has been heavy handed with Biology and Chemistry courses and has drawn on a thorough and frequent use of algebra as a basis for most of my work. I grew up in Queens, NY and attended a small private school for most of my education prior to university. Having been a student in a small high school and a student in a huge university, I most definitely have an appreciation for personalized attention when endeavoring to learn any subject.
I have received my Bachelor of Science degree from Stony Brook University in May 2014, graduating with Summa Cum Laude distinction. In college, I have studied biochemistry as a major, philosophy as a minor, and have been an active teaching assistant for general chemistry, physics, biochemistry, and genetics at the University. Throughout these wonderful experiences, I have worked with many students under many different settings and have experience in both one-on-one tutoring and group tutoring. Not only am I diligent in actively engaging my students into the academic material, but I am also experienced in coming up with strategic methods as to how they can improve. I try to look out for the cause of the students’ confusion, and then move on to resolve it by teaching the student the key concepts that are necessary for understanding the material. As of now, I am tutoring Algebra, Algebra 2, Algebra 3/4, Arithmetic, Elementary Math, Middle School Math, Pre-Algebra, Biochemistry, Biology, Chemistry, Genetics, Honors Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Physics, Physiology, MCAT Biological Sciences, and MCAT Physical Sciences. Every student deserves the most attention that he or she needs, and I am deeply committed, as well as strongly determined, to help my students excel in these areas.
What makes me a great tutor is patience. If someone if coming to me to learn, I can explain the concepts to them as long as needed without getting frustrated. I want my students to learn! I teach virtually all high school subjects and below and am even open to teaching college curriculum courses if they fit my expertise.
I am a Wake Forest University graduate with a degree in Psychology, and I am currently pursuing a career as a physical therapist.I have over 5 years of tutoring experience with students ranging from elementary to college level, tutoring math, reading, writing, and science. I have also had experience tutoring the SAT, as well as helping high school juniors and seniors with their college application process and essay writing.Throughout the years I've been a student, I've had many teachers and tutors, both good and bad. My personal philosophy is to respect my students and engage with them on their terms, and to foster a sense of purpose and positive attitude towards whatever I'm tutoring. I believe that a positive student-teacher relationship creates the best learning environment, and I try to achieve this with each of my students.I am a basketball junkie. I also enjoy football, lounging with my dog, and watching Netflix.
I received my Bachelor of Science in Applied Mathematics and Statistics from Stony Brook University, and I am currently pursuing my Masters degree in Operations Research at the same institution. While attending SBU, I tutored student athletes in a variety of math courses, ranging from Algebra, to Calculus. My favorite courses to tutor involve probability and statistics, because I love how many layers each question has, and how much you can learn from doing even the simplest problem! When tutoring, I strive to create a calm and relaxed environment that helps students work through problems by drawing conclusions from what they already know. I believe learning is a beautiful thing, and I do my best to help others improve their learning skills!Outside of school, I am a total health nut. I love learning about fitness, nutrition, and other health-related subjects. I am also an avid Ultimate Frisbee player and amateur musician.
I have my masters in Occupational Therapy and graduated from NYU. I also have my Bachelors of Art in Psychology and graduated from Stony Brook University. I have been working with students with special needs for 9 years. I primarily work with fine motor skills including handwriting and formation of letters. I collaborate with teachers and will work with them in the classroom and follow the common core standards. I also communicate with parents and will work on meeting the goals of the student. If you decide to work with me, I promise to be flexible, patient, and hardworking.
I have been tutoring since 2011 when I retired from developmental optometry, a specialty in which I saw the same children and adults on a weekly basis, using many of the same concepts that are used in tutoring. I have always enjoyed math which is necessary to understand optics and optometry and now I am pleased to watch my students' "aha" moments when they discover the joy of math. The National Tutoring Association has certified me as a tutor and an academic coach.
I am currently a sophomore at Stony Brook University. I am in the process of declaring a Multidisciplinary Studies, which means I'll be studying three concentrations: Philosophy, Religious Studies, and Applied Math and Statistics. I want to use AMS to help me get a job in Data Science, so that I can earn enough to get a PhD. in Philosophy.I have been tutoring ever since high school. I enjoy helping out those around me, whether they are clients or fellow peers. I have experience tutoring in fields as varied as Latin and Calculus. I have continued tutoring in college, helping out students with subjects such as Calculus 2 and Algebra. However, I think my specialty lies in test preparation, specifically with the SAT. Like many students, I had a great deal of trouble preparing for the SAT. But I realized that doing well on the SAT doesn't simply require hard work or mastery over the concepts involved (though they are important), it requires a targeted approach that familiarizes you with the style and approach of the examination. I went through a great deal of practice preparing for the SAT and learned a great deal that I can pass on to other students. Furthermore, I enjoy working with students and am good at understanding at what's going through their heads so that I can help them master concepts more quickly.My favorite hobby would have to be reading, since it is a lifelong passion that my sister imparted to on to me. I also enjoy going to the gym, bicycling, running, and watching The Flash.
I have many years of experience in competitive mathematics as I was the former co-captain of the NYC ARML math team. I have an unique approach with illustrating mathematics.

As a slow learner and an ex high school struggling student, I would have never imagined I would now be pursuing a bachelor's degree in civil engineering at Stony Brook University. Therefore, I want to share my story with all types of students and motivate them to become wherever it is that they aspire to be. As a high school alumnus, current college student and tutor, I emphasize certain techniques to better understand a new foreign concept, I am a firm believer of visual representations, repeated audios, and concept application skills to convert student's weaknesses into their strengths. I love to be part of my students' school journey and tutor them in Spanish, algebra, geometry, calculus, physics, and chemistry. However, my favorite subjects to tutor are mechanics of solid, statics, and dynamics because I find them to be very interesting.When I am not at the library studying, you can always find me watching comedy movies and eating strawberry mochi ice cream.
