Kelvin
Reading Comprehension & Essay Writing
Hello! I am a professor of English literature in the CUNY system, and have over a decade of experience teaching/demystifying the art of literary composition and analysis! Students are often drawn to literature because they are told that they are free to interpret texts in a number of ways, but then find they have difficulty achieving consistently good grades on their writing assignments. What's lacking, I have found, is an approach to reading & writing that provides students with concrete ... Read more

Andy
Experienced architectural designer, and 3D professional
I graduated from the New York Institute of Technology in Old Westbury, New York with a Bachelor's degree in Architecture. I realized while in college that the technical skills to succeed in the workforce were not being taught and I had to self-teach myself a majority of programs and concepts. My peers noticed the quality of my work and were always curious about the methods and techniques I use in my 3D modeling, renderings, drawings and graphic design, starting my tutoring career. Teaching... Read more

ESL ESOL Lessons & TESOL Exam Practice
I have been teaching for a while now. I enjoy helping others to be better and help each student I come across to learn something new.

Career wise I followed my father's footsteps. He is a retired teacher. He taught for 40 years at a middle school in New York. His subjects were English and Language; French and I... Read more

That would be the first in a number of concepts, scientific and otherwise, that would leave me wheezing. I thought, "How could I be so g... Read more
Stephanie
English Tutor - Lovin' It!
Hello my name is Stephanie, I tutor, specializing in English and self-motivation, because I love to acknowledge the genius in young people. I began tutoring in the subject of ESL in 1994. This was soon after I became a first time mom. At that time I had no interest in going back into the corporate world, so I choose to take on a career where I could be close to my newly born son. This career turned out to be wonderfully satisfying and I continued to pursue it for an additional four y... Read more
