I am a recent graduate of Fordham University with a Bachelor of Arts in philosophy and theology, as well as two minors in Medieval Studies and Classics. I have nearly life-long experience as an educator, particularly though to my current position as an museum educator at the Hudson River Museum. Additionally, I have a rigorous background in English language and composition, in addition to research and academic writing.In order to make these subjects accessible to my students, I break down the process and fundamentals of the subject matter. In understanding the subject as a whole, the student masters and retains the course material. My method is tried, true, and allows students to grow confident in themselves and their academic ability.

I pursued my Bachelors at Loyola University in Maryland where I concentrated in philosophy, history, and political science. Following that I pursued a Masters at Fordham University for philosophy with a focus on 19th and 20th Century German Phenomenology. I am here to teach anything from the basics of high school study strategies to advanced studies in upper level college courses.I have tutored throughout high school, college, and graduate school, with great success.When it comes to my tutoring style I truly believe that if you cannot explain something simply, then you do not understand it properly. That is why I endeavor to give the most straightforward explanation possible. I am a firm believer in contextualization - most especially in history - as it offers a broader and deeper understanding of concepts, which allows students better recall ability. I am quite easy-going, but highly effective.Apart from my foci in higher education, I specialize in persuasive writing and essay construction.When I am not actively teaching, I am actively learning. I am currently working on a research project, an unrealistic amount of do-it-yourself projects, and a book. I love playing with and training my two dogs, hiking, and reading for pleasure.

Education is the greatest equalizer...I believe this phrase effectively encapsulates my perception of what exactly education is, and should be.Regardless of where you come from, education can take you farther and higher than you ever thought possible.As your tutor, I will work to empower you to get to any destination you want your unique educational journey!

STEM-focused tutor and trained birth doula with strong communication, teaching, and mentorship skills. Experienced in academic support for middle school through college-level learners, early-childhood education and childcare, STEM outreach, and cross-cultural project leadership. Adept at simplifying complex math and science concepts, supporting diverse learning styles, and fostering confidence and curiosity in learners of all ages. In my free time, I enjoy gardening, exploring local parks and community farms, volunteering in educational programs, and pursuing creative science experiments.

I am a graduate of Fordham University where I earned a Bachelor's degree with a major in History. In particular, I focused my energies on the study of American History. I have tutored as a part of the National Honor Society on topics such as AP Literature, AP American History, AP American Government, and the SAT. I am incredibly passionate about History and Literature and could easily discuss these topics for hours on end. I truly believe that history is fascinating, interesting, and wholly deserving of our attention. I hope I can share this passion and create tutoring sessions that are as engaging as they are informative. With my free time I enjoy reading, especially science fiction, and also exercise regularly, but admit a certain weakness for video games and good TV.

Following apprenticeship at major New York law firms (including the then largest law partnership in the world), I established a succession of midtown Manhattan law practices. Ive been on all sides of deals having represented buyers and sellers, lenders and borrowers, owners and officers. At Jamaicas national university, among other things, I delivered lectures to Bachelor of Laws students and provided administrative support as a curriculum designer and physical plant strategist.I was born and attended primary school in Kingston, Jamaica, migrated to the USA and completed prep school at Phillips (Andover) Academy in Massachusetts. My post-secondary education includes an A.B. degree in Economics from Princeton University, a Juris Doctor from Fordham Universitys School of Law in New York City, and a Certificate of Legal Education from Norman Manley Law School. Currently, I'm earning a Masters degree in Real Estate Development from NYU's Schack Institute of Real Estate.I have traveled extensively throughout the Americas, Europe and Africa spearheading capital financing search missions and other ventures. I speak Spanish comfortably and am familiar with Italian, Portuguese and French. While setting up an export company in Tanzania in 2007, I became literate in Kiswahili and continue to study on my own.

Hello! My name is Angelika. I am a senior at Fordham University majoring in Biology and minoring is Disability Studies. I expect to graduate Spring 2023. I have tutored since the 7th grade and I love to help people understand concepts that they previously struggled with. I tutor in a variety of subjects but I am most passionate about Algebra, the SAT Grammar section, and the SAT Math Section. I believe that curating a unique approach for each individual is important in their advancement. Everybody is different and therefore their way of learning will be different too! This has helped many of my students raise their grades and confidence when it comes to their studies. In my free time, I enjoy watching cooking videos on YouTube and going to the gym!

Hi! I'm Caroline, a senior at Fordham University. I love interacting with students and explaining new concepts to them! My special interest lies in the liberal arts, but I can also offer test prep and grade-level tutoring in various subjects!

I am passionate about helping students because without a thorough education, I would not be the person I am today. Education was at first something handed down to me from figures of authority. The more I studied and applied myself, however, a feeling ownership and agency began to develop. Education was less something handed down to me, and more something which I owed that I could engage in at any time. I want to help students discover how fun and how immeasurably valuable education can be, not because an authority figure told them so, but because they know this in their own heart. So far I've tried to impart this idea to students at CitySquash in the Bronx, and Harlem RBI in Manhattan, two programs which blend tutoring instruction and homework help with sports. Tutoring sessions were one-on-one for one to two hours per week.I received my Bachelors in America Studies and in Communication and Media Studies from Fordham College Rose Hill in the Bronx. I'm saving money so that I can eventually enter a masters program in either Journalism, or History. I tutor the subjects of History (European, American, World - high school and AP level) and Language Arts (reading comp, writing, language and literature - high school and AP level). My favorite subject to tutor is American history. Bob Marley once said "A people without the knowledge of their past history and culture is like a tree without roots." As Americans (no matter when we arrived to this land) we need to understand thoroughly our history, so that we do not repeat the mistakes of the past. We must see historical trends so that we can anticipate the future. We must nurture and grow our tree, and to do so we must know our roots.My teaching philosophy revolves around the student learning to lead by himself or herself. Tutoring is temporary, and a student must learn to learn. Memorizing information is great for passing tests, but mastering methods of learning will help a student to succeed throughout his or her entire lifetime. So I try to show students how to learn more than just what to learn.Outside of academia, I love music - reggae music, jazz music, hip hop music, electronic music, all music. I also play the drums, and attend concerts whenever I have the time and money. I enjoy practicing yoga, taking hikes and exploring New York's Hudson Valley. I devour books and one day want to write my own.

I believe that all children have the right and access to a great education that helps them reach their maximum potential so that they may live choice filled lives.I believe it is important to set goals with students and their families and frequently monitor on the progress students are making towards their individual goals. Students thrive when they receive direct instruction. I pride myself in collecting data and using that data to inform instruction so that it is tailored to meet the needs of the student.

I am certified to teach ESL in New York State (K-12) and received my Masters in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL) through Fordham University. As a NYC Public School teacher for 6 years, and as a private tutor in South Korea, I have experience instructing elementary, middle school, and high school students, as well as adults, to reach their academic goals. Additionally, I have taught test preparation for the SAT, PSAT, SHSAT, NYS ELA Regents, NYSESLAT exams, and more.I specialize in increasing the literacy skills of all learners through vocabulary building, step-by-step approaches and inquiry. I use direct teaching, video, audio, PowerPoints, and even props to demonstrate concepts. I am excellent at helping students to organize their ideas for essays and to deliver clear arguments to defend any position. If you are looking to create and edit an essay (college application, English essay, science report, etc.), to make an oral presentation, or if you just need some useful writing advice, I will be happy to assist you in reaching your goals!

My name is Roberto, but most people just call me RJ! I am currently a 4th/5th Grade Math Teacher in Miami, FL. Before this, I taught 5th Grade Math and Science in West Palm Beach, FL. Before that, I taught Geometry and Living Environments for 2 years in the South Bronx (I am a native of New York). If you like humor, high energy, and tons of patience, then hopefully I can help :-)

I am a graduate student living in New York and have been tutoring and teaching test prep classes for the past several years. I love working with students to help them gain confidence and understanding in subjects that have been giving them trouble, and I strive to make learning the most positive and enjoyable experience possible!

I have 2 math degrees, 7 years of teaching experience and 30 years of tutoring experience in math. I enjoy what I do and I help students enjoy the learning process as well. I help them build their confidence through a series of successes in solving progressively more challenging problems. I look forward to helping students be the best math students they can be.

I graduated from Fordham University with a degree in English. I've been working in education since then and have developed a passion for helping students improve on standardized tests. I have over three years of experience tutoring students from grade 4-11 for a wide range of subjects. I am particularly passionate about helping students improve in reading comprehension, vocabulary building, and essay writing. While many students find these subjects daunting, I think that with the right strategies, anyone can improve in these areas. When I'm not tutoring, I enjoy reading, writing short stories, and regularly posting on Tumblr.

Hello, my name is Dilan, and I am an Economics student at Fordham University. I am a dedicated tutor who enjoys helping students build confidence and achieve their academic goals. I specialize on building elementary and middle school math skills to help them build their foundation for a high school career. I want to create a supportive and engaging learning environment where students are able to ask questions and see academic progress. I am excited to get to know my students and help them reach their full potential with math.

I have my Bachelor of Science from Fordham University in Biological Sciences with a minor in Psychology, and will be starting medical school in the summer of 2026. I have a strong passion for education and love helping students build confidence in their academic abilities. With experience as a research assistant studying trauma, resilience, and health disparities, I bring an analytical and compassionate approach to tutoring. I have worked with students in AP Biology, chemistry, and algebra, tailoring lessons to their unique learning styles. My goal is to break down complex concepts into clear, relatable ideas, making learning both engaging and effective. Beyond academics, I believe in fostering a supportive and encouraging environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and making mistakesbecause that's how real learning happens! Whether you need help mastering content, refining problem-solving skills, or preparing for exams, I'm here to guide you every step of the way.

Hi everyone! My name is Catherina, and I am currently a student at Fordham University working towards a BA in Applied Mathematics and Economics. I love anything involving the outdoors, from nature walks to outdoor sports. I live in the great City of New York and spend my free time visiting museums and seeing the fascinating spots the city has to offer. I found an interest in tutoring in high school and continue it today because I love helping students understand material in a way that is easily understood by all. Nothing makes me more happy than the brightened face on a student content with working on a subject they previously struggled with. I work with all ages and abilities while striving to reach every individuals end goal. I hope to help you, too!

I'm a graduate of Fordham University where I earned degrees in both Mathematics and Music. I have years of experience tutoring students from middle to high school in all subjects, especially English, Math, and French. In my free time, I love playing and listening to music, spending time with friends, and watching Netflix :)

A recent graduate of Fordham University, I have received my Bachelor of Arts in Anthropology and Spanish Language and Literature. I also hold a minor in French Language and Literature. I've taken coursework in every subject from computer science to film and media, and I have experience in standardized testing such as the ACT and SAT. I know that there is no singular approach to tutoring students; every individual learns differently. I appreciate this fact, and I promise to find the best approach tailored to the subject matter and your needs as a student.

I am an experienced educator with a Bachelor of Arts degree in English from Fordham University. I taught reading, writing, grammar and public speaking successfully in three middle schools. I have also been a reading and writing tutor for five years for students in elementary, middle, and high school. I have a proven track record of moving students from below to above grade level performance in each of these areas. My approach is individualized intervention strategies tied to "real-world" applications of skills. This assures that students are not just learning content, but understand the context in which the content is useful for college and career success. Ninety-six percent of my students passed the state ELA exam after being scored below grade level the previous school year. I enjoy teaching language arts because I believe it's the gateway to understanding ourselves and the world around us.

I am a Special Education English teacher in Philadelphia with a passion for education. I love working with students of all ages to find their learning style and to meet their personal goals. I also love to laugh and have fun while getting work done!I graduated from Fordham University in New York City with a major in sociology and a double minor in visual arts and philosophy. During my undergraduate career I worked with students as young as preschool and as old as high school seniors on their reading and writing skills. I truly believe that reading and writing is the key to understanding and interacting with the world in a positive way. I know certain books have changed my life and I hope to instill the same passion I have for the written word within all my students!I have been teaching both high school and middle school in Philadelphia for the past five years. I have taught reading intervention and seen many of my students make enormous gains. I am in the process of being certified in the Wilson System of reading, which is a rigorous and research based intervention for students of all ages. I am excited to work with students on everything from fundamental phonics to critical reading!

I am currently an undergraduate student pursuing a Computer Science degree at Fordham University. This is my first year tutoring as my only real experience was helping classmates do their homework. However, when it comes with teaching others math, I've always held the belief that people need to learn each individual step in a mathematical problem. I believe this is something that can improve student's understanding in math. I also make sure students are engaged and have fun with learning math.

I am an experienced tutor and teacher in a wide variety of subjects who specializes in student-centered, personalized learning.

I'm a sociology student at New York University, and I've had 3+ years of professional experience as a teaching assistant and teaching aide for a range of elementary and high school students, primarily focused on English comprehension and literacy. I also have extensive experience in peer review and staying up to date with academic works. A strong and insightful learning experience speaks to your values, interests, and stories. I am knowledgeable and experienced in college admissions essays, general essay/writing guidance, ESL, English literacy & comprehension, and Korean conversational language learning. I'm invested in how we can accumulate who you can be!

I've recently moved to the Atlanta area after living abroad in Chile for 8 years. I am originally from Alabama and graduated from Birmingham-Southern College with a BA in English Language and Literature. Immediately after undergrad, I relocated to New York City to pursue my law degree at Fordham University. After earning my Juris Doctor and passing the NY bar exam, I worked for five years as a litigator in New York. In 2009, I took the opportunity to fulfill a lifetime dream to live abroad and moved to South America. Upon arriving in Chile, I worked as an ESL teacher for children and adults as well as an editor of investment research and corporate trainer. I love language and am passionate about helping others learn to speak, write and read in a more effective way. Language is a tool, and I truly believe anyone can learn to use it better. I'm excited to be back in the US and eager to work with motivated students.

I hold a Ph.D in English from Fordham University in NYC and a valid secondary school teaching license. Plus, I have over 30 years of experience teaching and tutoring students: 26 at the university level and four at the high school level. My expertise spans a wide range of subjects, English Language (grammar, syntax, and all the 'fun" stuff) and composition (the act of written expression), reading for comprehension, literary analysis, Honors and AP English, Mythology, Debate and public speaking, creative writing (I'm even a published author), college application essays, university level research essays, and test preparation coaching for High School, University, and Grad level testing. I am passionate about creating a learning environment where I empower students to find their own unique voices and express their ideas with confidence. I specialize in breaking down assignments into easy-to-follow steps, and I utilize a variety of diverse teaching methods to tailor a tutoring session to what an individual student needs. I'm especially good with neurodivergent or non-traditional students--not only am I one myself, but both my kids are and I've adjusted my practices many times to better fit what a student needs in order to be successful in an academic setting that isn't one-size-fits-all. My goal is to inspire students to realize their own potential and to transform writing from a confusing or intimidating task into an enjoyable and rewarding experience. In all my years as a teacher, the one thing I missed most was the chance to talk one-on-one with a student and really listen to what they needed--tutoring lets me do just that! I'm excited to learn more about you and help you achieve success

Hello! I have extensive experience tutoring students in SAT/ACT prep, AP test prep, writing and reading comprehension, and math. As a tutor, I make it my priority to focus on each specific problem while also making sure that the student understands the broader concepts as a whole. In high school I tutored my sports teammates as well as younger students who needed assistance editing and workshopping essays. I am currently enrolled as an applied accounting and finance major at the Fordham Gabelli School of Business where I'm taking business statistics and calculus classes alongside writing and economics classes. In my free time, I watch tons of basketball and football and love action movies.

I enjoy helping students de-mystify math by teaching them that it is a language that can be mastered, if they are willing to put in the work.

I am a graduate of Fordham University, where I received a B.A. in History with a minor in mathematics. I have spent 8 years as an educator; seeing knowledge and wisdom imparted on the minds of others, as well as witnessing progression in analytical and critical thinking skills is a passion of mine. As an undergraduate, I taught health classes at underfunded high schools in the Bronx, NY. Upon graduating, I went on to teach high school math for 5 years in both Philadelphia and Chicago, simultaneously receiving an M.Ed. in secondary education, mathematics. Every year, my students surpassed school-wide growth goals on standardized math tests, including the ACT and PSAT.I have now returned to my home-state of North Carolina to pursue a Ph.D. in History. While I work on this endeavor, I am available to tutor Math, History, and English. When I'm not tutoring, I enjoy tearing through books, stumbling through being an adult learner of piano, hiking, practicing yoga, and being in good company.

I am a graduate of Fordham University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in English with a minor in Communications. Since graduation I have been working as a teaching assistant at Fordham High School for the Arts under Blue Engine, an educational service affiliated with Americorps. Even before college I was a teaching assistant, tutor, and mentor to 6-8th graders under the REACH Program for Regis High School which serves academically gifted students whose families are in financial need. Interestingly enough, I too was once a student in the REACH Program. This is where my love of education and belief that a strong educational background is essential to advancing in life and improving one's circumstances. As an English tutor, I believe that reading comprehension and writing skills are essential to advancing in literary analysis as well as communicational skills. Through scaffolding questioning, deep text readings, and rigorous analytical writing, I believe any student can become a competent English student and communicator. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, film and television, as well as musical criticism.

My favorite subject in school was and still is reading. I love studying various author crafts as well as comparing multiple works of literature. In my classroom I love bringing the excitement and joy of reading alive for my students. As a teacher with years of experience, I have encountered scholars with diverse reading levels and abilities. Although multiple strategies are used to reach each and every one of my students, one thing they all have in common is a shared love and appreciation for reading.While reading is my favorite, I have tutored students in phonics, writing, and elementary math. In each of these subjects, my goal and objective is for my scholars to become independent learners using the skills that I share with them.

I have been teaching young students for two years, while in grad school at Columbia University, studying early childhood education. Before starting grad school, I went to Fordham University where I mentored and worked with young students in many different settings. Overall, I have been working with children for many years and look forward to tutoring, getting to know and learning from my future students!

I love sharing my experiences and mentoring others. My varied background in corporate finance, banking and treasury management gives a great global view.

Hiya! My name is Joe Rozek and I would like to be your tutor. In the past I studied philosophy at Vassar College, ecology at Fordham University and then at Lehigh University I had a brief stint as a PhD student in evolutionary biology. There I quickly found out that I was more keen on teaching than I was on doing research and have since transferred to obtain my teaching certificate in high school biology. Despite my many years in biology, I never found it to be easy. Science is hard. There's a great deal of memorization associated with the subject, as well as difficult concepts and esoteric terminology. Let me help you by lending you my expertise in effectively studying and learning biology.

A recent graduate with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science, I've had 3 years of tutoring experience in both mathematics and computer science, in various classes. I am a Software Engineer, specifically working with Java and JavaScript but I have extensive experience with C, C++, and Python. I'm excited to get to know all potential students!

I am a current fourth year medical student at Albert Einstein College of Medicine. I graduated Summa Cum Laude from Fordham University with a Bachelors of Science and double majored in Biology and History. I was born and raised in Queens and now I currently reside in Manhattan. My tutoring style is very much student-centric. I work with students to create their own personalized notes from the textbook in order to focus upon what is truly important. Then, I work with students to help them understand the central concepts. Once students understand the central concepts, the details easily follow. I also have my students work through as many problems as they can on their own. When a student has struggled through a problem and succeeds by themselves, they learn more than they possibly could through an explanation. I then work with my students on the problems they could not accomplish to show them how to best tackle it in the future. My tutoring strategy is to not only teach the subject material, but to also teach the student how to study effectively by themselves.

I come from an immigrant background so the stress for education is incredibly important to me. I graduated from Fordham University with a double major in Economics and History. After graduation I worked in accounting but I didn't find that line of work for me so I decided to pursue a career in law. I took the LSAT and now I am currently in the process of applying for Fall 2022 for law school.I found tutoring to be incredibly rewarding. I discovered my love for it when I had to help my younger family members as I was the oldest and I always the first to do something so I'd have to mentor those before me. I just find the best part about tutoring is when a student just gets it. When it finally all clicks.My philosophy is that I don't give up on students because I know all of them that come to me have the potential to succeed they just need a helping hand to lead them. Not everyone learns the same way it's why teachers and professors in a classroom setting can be ineffective. No one is incapable of learning.I have a passion for History and Writing but, I also really enjoy teaching the LSAT. I used to struggle with it in the beginning and I eventually grew to love the test and in turn I loved teaching the test. I know how stressful it can be but it is learnable and I intend to teach it.

I have recently graduated with highest honors from Fordham University with an English major and Psychology minor.I am currently attending Columbia University's English Master's Program. Additionally, I am also earning a certificate at NYU for Editing, Proofreading, and Fact-Checking.As a member of two of Fordham's honors societies and an ivy-league graduate student, I am more than adept at helping others understand the complexities of English as a subject.I look forward to helping you succeed to the highest level in English or with other related assignments.

Hi! I'm Jacqueline Winslow, and I'm an English major at Fordham University. I'm a published editor and writer, and my experience as a TA at Fordham has made me the ideal person to help you write the perfect essay.
