Jay
Comprehensive Music Education
I've been involved in music my whole life, as a performer, composer, producer, arranger and much more. My musical curiosity has led me to work in pop, jazz, classical and many other styles of music. With a BFA in jazz and an MM in composition, I have a deep understanding of a wide range of genres, techniques and practices. I firmly believe that an artist's way must include sharing their experience with students, whether they are up-and-coming musicians themselves, or interested amateurs. In m... Read more

Miriam
Experienced Tutor for all Sciences and Math
Hi! I'm Miriam. I graduated with a Bachelors degree in Biology, with an Award for Scholarly Excellence and Achievement in Physics from the college. When I was in college and post-college, I was the official Sciences tutor in my school (for all Bio, Physics and Chemistry courses). A recurring occurrence I saw in the students I taught was that they were told those were ''weed out'' subjects that had a steep learning curve. The students did their best to retain and understand the material, but w... Read more
Michael
Experienced Tutor Ready to Help You Achieve Your Goals
I studied chemical engineering in college, but now my professional work is in mechanical engineering. I taught engineering thermodynamics as an adjunct professor at the university level for 3 years. After finding the size of lecture classes too big to make a meaningful impact, I decided to focus on teaching and tutoring in smaller group settings. I emphasize developing a real understanding of a topic rather than doing enough to just get by on your test. Students who learn to understand ra... Read more

Alex Spinney- brooklyn studio based Teaching Artist
As a Teaching Artist, I believe that art provides an outlet to learn about critical thinking, problem solving, and to address and respond to greater issues of the human condition. I believe that in learning about materials and processes, students of all ages learn how to approach an idea with a large variety of responses, taking into thought the association that images project and the history of expression. I have worked as a professional Artist for twelve years, five of which I have suppo... Read more

Danae
B.A. , Math Tutor
HI! My name is Danae! I am currently continuing my work as a Math and Reading tutor. I have worked with students of all ages.

My tutoring career begins with NYC Standardized testing, after spending 7+ years tutoring 3rd to... Read more
