Irene
Enthusiastic astronomy, physics, math tutor
- $150 / h
- 60 ratings
- Cold Spring , New York ( 10516 )
- 12 miles
I've always enjoyed one-on-one work with students, since this best allows me to pinpoint and address the student's areas of confusion. Every learner is different and I believe it's important for tutors to identify and adapt to the learning styles of their students. I aim to be flexible and creative; since we live in a physical world, I like to use familiar phenomena as examples to discuss physics and astronomy concepts. I have 13 years of experience teaching in both formal and informal e... Read more

Carolyn
Carolyn - Mathematics Tutor - Grades K-10
I am a teacher and a tutor with many years of experience. I taught in elementary school, middle school and a community college. I teach using all the basic methods. I go back to the rules of numbers and how they work. I try to build a strong foundation so that the student can "understand" their work and not just memorize it. I am very patient with all my students. If they do not understand a concept I will repeat it many times until it is understood.... Read more

Working in the classroom for more than 8 years, I have found the best way to spark that passion is to ensure the work connects to my students in a meaningful way. This approach strives to help students become independent life long learners beyond their immediate need to complete a assignment or secure a good grade. I specialize in 7th -9th math, covering 7th and 8th grade common core math, common core algebra, regents prep and more. If you strive to have your child develop skills for life ... Read more
