"Amy is a fantastic tutor, the best I ever experienced and I plan to continue using her. Amy is more than pleasant and patient. When it took me a while to understand some of the functions, whereby she had to repeat the instructions several times or even explain them in different scenarios, she never made me feel less than. Amy's expertise is more than impressive." - Kathryn P. (Intermediate Powerpoint) In my video production business, I have tutored and mentored many interns and really en... Read more

I have taught elementary and special education for 11 years. I have been teaching the Wilson Reading Program, the Linda Mood Bell and other reading programs to help children decode and comprehend.

I graduated NYU in 2013 with a B.A. in Chemistry. I was a freelance tutor in college and a CPR instructor for the American Heart Association. I love teaching student about chemistry (especially general and organic chemistry).

Griffin
SAT; PSAT; English, reading, and writing; K-9 math
- $40 / h

I was head of my high school's student tutoring program. Extra-help sessions are, in my opinion, essential to how teaching and learning happen. The goal is to understand concepts above and beyond memorizing facts, and understanding concepts involves being able explain them adequately to someone who isn't at the point of comprehension yet. I received a perfect score on my SAT Math subsection as well as on the Math Level 2 SAT Subject Test. Again, I believe a thorough knowledge of the test a... Read more
