Inrich

French Tutor • +11 Subjects

As a highly motivated, goal and success oriented tutor, I have a proven track record of providing excellent tools for everyone around me to overcome the challenges that they encounter when facing difficult situations. I will graduate from Baruch college with a bachelor's in Industrial and Organizational Psychology and have always received A's in all my mathematic courses. I am always positive and enthusiastic, and I love to share that with everyone. I have been a tutor for about 6 years now, in French and Mathematics. I have helped my students to build the necessary skills that they need to succeed. I show my students how to study effectively. For instance, Mathew who is a former student of mine did not like algebra at all. I showed him how easy it is with 3 effective rules to master in algebra. Read-Follow-Do. Now he is taking calculus and is doing well. My previous experience as a tutor and my daily life as a student has enabled me to develop not only specific skills to be the best tutor, but also to be patient and understanding. This is because I have lived the frustration of not understanding a subject myself. This pushes me to read and go find the help that I need. Living this myself makes me devoted and goal oriented, and motivates me to help my students even more. I want to get my PhD in I.O. in the future and develop more and better skills to be the best tutor that I can ever be.

Ann Marie

6th Grade AP Language Composition Tutor • +27 Subjects

My decision to pursue a teaching career is because I have a strong desire to make a difference in the lives of my students. I see teaching as the best way to do this. I also have a strong love for learning and as an educator, having this quality is essential if one is to instill a love for learning in his/her students. I am helping students reach their fullest potential. I am laying the foundation for lifelong learning and achievement and to me that is the greatest job of all.I have taught a wide variety of students in both early childhood and elementary grades in both public and private settings. I have also helped colleagues prepare for different standardized exams such as the GRE, PRAXIS and the New York State teacher examination. My experiences have taught me a lot about what are best practices and how best to implement these best practices. They have taught me the value of being patient and the importance of differentiated instruction.I have my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Pace University. I also have a Masters in Science in Childhood Education (1-6). In addition, I have a 15-Credit Post Masters in Early Childhood Education (Birth-2nd Grade). I am able to tutor reading (comprehension, phonics); writing (style, grammar); math (number operations, measurement, geometry, problem solving, and number sense); science (biology, health, physiology, astronomy; weather, earth science); and social studies (civic engagement, geography and history).My favorite subjects to tutor are reading, writing and math. As an educator I take the time to get to know my students and what really interests them. I believe this is essential to learning how to best teach the students I am teaching or tutoring. It is important to help make the content relatable and accessible. This means getting to know my students and their learning styles.Outside of academia I enjoy doing yoga, reading, traveling and spending time with family and friends.

Conversational Spanish Tutor • +5 Subjects

Hi, I'm Adam. I'm 29 years old, and have recently moved back to the US from several years of living in Australia. I've had lots of experience doing many things over the years. I've always had a passion for digging into different skills and learning whatever I can get my hands on. I've also always had a knack for taking whatever I've learned and conveying it to new learners easily. I love the experience and process that comes with learning new things, and love to facilitate the excitement of learning & growth in others however I can.Some more personal details and credentials:have a major in Community Health with a focus on Health Education from Texas A&M University, as well as a Minor in Spanish Language. I have lived abroad in Seville, Spain, Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, and have spent quite a bit of time in Mexico and Costa Rica throughout my life. I currently live in Texas, and am able to practice my Spanish regularly.I have over ten years of guiding youth groups during the summers in team building activities, ropes courses, and other challenging activities. I've worked with groups from ages 4 to 16 years old of all genders and backgrounds, and have experience with special needs and varied learning abilities as well. My last outdoor youth guiding position focused on middle school to high school aged expeditions, team building, rappel/abseil guiding, and overnight survival skills expeditions.I have a long background in emergency and wilderness medicine, and pursuing emergency services and search and rescue focuses is my main goal. I have completed the nationally registered EMT and Wilderness EMT courses, and wish to pursue either a Paramedics or Nursing degree next.I have travelled extensively throughout my life, especially during my twenties, and get extreme enjoyment in absorbing whatever I can about the cultures and languages belonging to wherever I find myself.During my three years in Australia I found myself around a lot of Brazilian friends, so I picked up a decent amount of Portuguese, and am currently starting to teach myself Arabic as well.I adore the outdoors and time spent adventuring in nature. Hiking, bushwhacking, swimming, surfing, climbing, SCUBA diving, wakeboarding, snow skiing, rappelling, ropes courses, cliff jumping, and the list goes on. If it involves being outside and something extreme, challenges me, and gets my heart rate going, I'm there.I have also been around martial arts for most of my life. I have a first degree black belt in Tae Kwon Do and a year or so of practice in Krav Maga regarding self defense & urban combatives. I started practicing Muay Thai ago it a year ago, have had one amateur fight, and am currently practicing Muay Thai and jiu jitsu.I have a long standing background in sports shooting and self defense tactics with firearms. I worked in private law enforcement for over a year, and have given private lessons to family and friends in self defense & basic firearms safety training.My longest and most persistent passion has a always been music. I began playing drums at the age of 9, and have been playing ever since. I took music lessons from then on throughout high school. During my years at school I captained my 5A high school drum line, played with strings and full wind orchestras, percussion ensembles, musicals, and solo performances at the Texas state level. Beyond that, I continued to play and teach myself, write and play live performances with various musicians, and have since been in a band for a few years with heavy doses of large live performances, studio recording time, and several tracks on Spotify.As you can see, I've gotten my hands on quite a few things over the years. I am absolutely an open book, so if you have any interests in any of these areas or any questions on my background, teaching styles, or anything at all, so not hesitate to reach out to me!My personal cell phone number is: (817)-964-9402

Kelsey

Algebra Tutor • +28 Subjects

I am a current undergraduate student pursuing my Bachelor of Science degree in Biochemistry and Nutrition. Additionally, I have completed Biology and Chemistry at both the Ordinary and Advanced Level as well as Spanish at the Ordinary level and so I mainly tutor Biology, Spanish and Chemistry. During my high school years, I often tutored and assisted my peers and younger sibling with whatever subjects they needed help with. Since I am fairly young, I believe that my tutoring style is more relatable to students younger or the same age as me. Personally, I love Biology and every time I learn something, I become more and more fascinated with how amazing nature is designed. I spend my downtime reading, playing the steelpan and cuddling with my dog.

Frequently Asked Questions

Score improvement depends on your baseline performance and study consistency, but students typically see 3-7 point increases with focused 10-week preparation. The key is identifying your specific weak areas early—whether that's CARS (reading comprehension), biochemistry, or physics—and targeting those sections intensively. With personalized 1-on-1 instruction, tutors help you develop efficient study strategies rather than spending time on areas where you're already strong, which maximizes your improvement potential within the 10-week timeframe.

Most students dedicate 20-30 hours per week to MCAT prep during a 10-week cycle, though this varies based on your starting point and target score. A typical schedule includes content review (early weeks), practice problems (mid-weeks), and full-length practice tests (final weeks). When working with a tutor, your study time becomes more efficient because you're not wasting effort on concepts you've already mastered or spinning your wheels on confusing material. Your tutor can help you create a realistic weekly schedule that fits your other commitments.

Pacing is one of the biggest challenges on test day—you have roughly 1.5-2 minutes per question depending on the section. Expert tutors teach you how to recognize question types quickly, decide when to skip and come back, and manage the Mental math section without getting bogged down. Through timed practice problems and full-length exams, tutors help you develop an intuition for pacing rather than just rushing through questions. They also identify your personal pacing bottlenecks, whether that's overthinking CARS passages, getting stuck on calculations, or second-guessing answers unnecessarily.

The first step is a diagnostic full-length practice test, which reveals exactly where you're losing points—organic chemistry, passage-based biology, physics equations, or critical analysis skills. From there, tutors create a personalized plan that front-loads content review for weak areas while maintaining strength in subjects where you're already solid. Rather than generic test prep, this targeted approach means your study time goes directly to content gaps and question types that are costing you points. Weekly progress checks through problem sets and mini-tests keep you accountable and let your tutor adjust the focus if new weak areas emerge.

Practice tests are essential—they show you what test day feels like, reveal timing issues, and identify content gaps under real pressure. During a 10-week prep cycle, you'll typically take 4-6 full-length practice tests spaced throughout your program, with the last ones close to your actual exam date. Tutors use your practice test results to fine-tune your study plan, help you analyze why you missed questions (was it content knowledge, misreading the question, or running out of time?), and build confidence by tracking improvement week to week. Timed practice is where many breakthroughs happen—students realize their strategies are working and gain the composure they need for test day.

Test anxiety often stems from uncertainty—not knowing what to expect, feeling unprepared, or past testing struggles. A structured 10-week program with regular progress milestones actually builds confidence naturally, since you can see improvement week by week. Tutors also teach practical stress-management techniques like breathing strategies, how to reframe mistakes as learning opportunities, and mental rehearsal for test day. Doing multiple timed practice tests in your actual testing environment (if it's a test center) helps normalize the experience so exam day feels less overwhelming and more like another practice attempt.

CARS challenges many test-takers because it requires reading complex passages quickly, understanding nuance and author perspective, and avoiding traps in answer choices—skills that feel less concrete than memorizing biochemistry. Unlike content-heavy sections, CARS improvement requires strategy training and lots of practice with real MCAT passages. Tutors teach you how to annotate passages efficiently, identify the author's main point vs. supporting details, and spot common wrong-answer traps. Over 10 weeks, consistent CARS practice combined with personalized feedback on your reasoning process leads to real score improvements, often 4-5 points in this section alone.
