Alex
An excellent tutor for all Science subjects
All through my years as a tutor I have always tried to live by the words once spoken by the great Benjamin Franklin: “Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learnâ€. In my senior year of Queen's high school, I assisted teachers and worked as a assistant, teaching science to elementary and middle school students. It had been a great learning experience for me and helped me develop not only my experience as a teacher but also my interest in the art of teaching. ... Read more
Emma
Experienced Tutor with a Focus in Math and Science
In middle school, I was a very humanities-oriented student and had a lot of trouble with math. I learned to train my brain to think in a more STEM-oriented manner in high school, achieving all As or A+s in my honors/AP math courses and am now currently a STEM major in the area of neuroscience! As a result, I know what it is like to approach a subject when it does not come naturally and am proof that you can still be successful! I look to break things down for my students in a functional manne... Read more
Debbie
School Psychologist-Specialist with Learning Disabilities
I have been a School Psychologist for over twenty years. This background has afforded me the opportunity to discern children's learning styles and why they may be having difficulty in a subject matter. I have found that knowing how to "teach" your child the "skill" of learning is just as important as the specific subject matter. I am certified to work with children from K-12 years of age. All of my professional career has been spent working in special education. I have a Masters Degree fr... Read more

Patience, organizational skills, and a thorough understanding of the subject matter are the qualities that make an exceptional tutor.

The courses I tutored included SAT Math, ACT Math, Algebra 1 and 2, Geometry, Trigonometry and Precalculus. In my current job, I develop curric... Read more
Gerry
Physics - Chemistry - Calculus - Trigonometry - Geometry - Algebra
Science and math can be very intimidating for many, many people. Respecting the varied learning styles is key in bridging the gap between an abstract concept and the experience of the student. This takes patient, experienced guidance. If you would like a highly effective, personable, patient, person with an ability to explain abstract material in a clear way then perhaps I can help. I have 10+ years in NYC and Long Island high school, junior high school, and college settings preparing stu... Read more
