In 2012, I graduated from New York University where I studied Dance and Psychology. After graduating, I performed internationally with a modern dance company. There I had the pleasure of teaching dance to a large range of ages and abilities. My experiences have varied from teaching Taiwanese school children to conducting workshops at Brown University. Throughout my education, I tutored students in a variety of academic disciplines. I am most passionate about psychology, statistics, and writing, and also enjoy helping students learn how to be better test takers. In my experience, preparing for Standardized Tests such as the SAT and ACT can be empowering. By ensuring that students master both the content and format of the test, they will be able to walk in on test day feeling calm and confident. My endeavors, domestic and abroad, have taught me to identify how a student best learns and help them approach conceptual roadblocks with creativity. I strongly believe in the importance of education. I consider it to be not only necessary to one's success, but also something that can be fun and extremely rewarding. When I'm not dancing or teaching, I love to read, visit museums, practice yoga, and watch independent films.

Greetings Scholars! I am thrilled to be a part of this platform where we can work together to further our educational pursuits. Currently, I am a Teacher Resident at the NYU Accelerated MAT program in Secondary English Education. This means that come September, I will be an ELA teacher working at a NY Public School. My intentions here are to hone in on my individuated mentoring practice as well as to provide rigorous tutoring and support for all my students. The key here is not just learning the subject material, but learning to learn well. Discipline and Agency are foundational! I look forward to meeting you and starting our learning journey.
I am a medical journalist with two years of tutoring experience in the city.A native New Yorker, I graduated from Hunter College High School and went to Williams College, where I majored in biology and Spanish. Afterwards, I got a Master's in science journalism from NYU. I have published science articles in The Atlantic, Popular Science, Audubon Magazine, Vice, and more.My goal is to make learning as highly efficient and fun as possible.

I have been an educator for 10 years in both the NYC and Miami metropolitan areas and can honestly say I love what I do. After graduating from NYU as an undergraduate, I received my master's degree in education from CUNY City College as I knew from a young age that I wanted to pursue a career in education. With many years of experience in and out of the classroom, I have seen firsthand how students learn differently and how important it is to meet each student where they are at. Most importantly, learning should be fun and I love to use music and art as tools to make any lesson more engaging. I am patient and understanding and will always make sure to listen to every question asked. My goal is to ensure that you feel confident and comfortable with the material at hand and will not continue on with any instruction until we are on the same page. I truly believe that all questions are great questions and I welcome all curious and inquisitive minds! I look forward to meeting you!
I graduated with a BA in Politics and a BA in Anthropology from NYU in 2022. I also hold a MS in Biomedical Anthropology and a Graduate Certificate in Forensic Health and Nursing from SUNY Binghamton (graduated May 2024). I have worked in education, with a previous position with America Reads/America Counts teaching elementary students in the NYC public school system. My previous virtual tutoring experience was with Curious Cardinals, where I had tutored high school students with the following: forensic science, biology (anatomy, genetics), SAT Evidence-Based Reading and Writing, ACT English and ACT Reading. I have experience working in forensic science policy at the Innocence Project, which is an organization focused on exonerating individuals who were wrongfully convicted of crime. In this role, I have written testimonials, case reports, and research articles on forensic identification methods and their legal, ethical, political, and privacy implications in casework. I have also worked in the forensic science sector as a Criminalist II at the NYC Office of Chief Medical Examiner (OCME). In this position, I assisted medical examiners (forensic pathologists) in the positive identification of deceased individuals throughout New York City. I also assisted in missing persons inquiries that were brought to the agency. Recently, I completed a research project in Vitoria de Santo Antao and Recife (both in the state of Pernambuco, in northeast Brazil) as a Fulbright Grantee. My research focused on osteology, forensic anthropology, and forensic genetics. My project involved metric analyses of bones combined with analyzing genetic information from DNA taken from bones. Currently, I am a doctoral student of Biological Sciences - Genetics at the University of Sao Paulo (USP). As a doctoral student, my dissertation project is expanding on the research I did with the Fulbright grant and is based on the central question/problem: What is the evolutionary relationship between skeletal morphology (primarily size), external pigmentation (i.e., skin, hair), and the presence of vitamin D deficiencies (which are indicated by the presence of skeletal lesions and decreased bone mineral density)? My favorite subjects in school were biology and anatomy, U.S. history, statistics, pre-algebra and algebra I, language and literature. I also partook in concert band and orchestra both in high school and in college. I am excited to share my skills and knowledge in these subjects with you, as well!
I am biologist passionate about teaching and making peoples lives easier.
I am a caring, enthusiastic tutor with five years experience of teaching lower elementary students of diverse backgrounds, learning styles and academic levels. I love creating unique activities for my students that align with their personalities and interests in order to motivate them. I believe in the power of data to drive student growth, focusing on benchmark assessments in order to set and track goals along the way, so that students are invested in what we are accomplishing together. I do my best to make learning fun, interactive and positive for children.
Born in US, raised in Shanghai, China, then moved back to US for college, I am fluent in both English and Mandarin. Eager to help others, I've been tutoring every chance I got; even my focus within my major (Economics) is on Development Economics (helping the poor countries). Patient and with a kind heart, let me help you tackle the challenges you are facing academically!
Hello. I currently graduated from New York University. I have a BA in biology and minor in computer science. I am currently working towards getting a MD in the future. At the moment, I am currently prepping for the MCAT. I am immersed in the laboratory setting and in the process of publishing my work on developmental aspect of flies.Since high school, I really enjoyed learning about biology and chemistry. I realized that many students struggled with concepts in these subjects. I know its very difficult to understand many of the processes either in the human body or in chemical reactions. My past tutoring experience gives me the confidence to effectively teach concepts with ease. As a tutor, I would like to understand the hurdles that the student is facing on the problem. In order to efficiently tutor a student, the student must understand the basic foundation of concept and it relates to the problem. I truly believe that all students can succeed in every subject.I would like to have a tutoring environment that is fun and helpful for the student. Let me pass on my experience and help you achieve the scores that you want.
As a passionate educator with a Master's in Business Administration from New York University and a Bachelor's in Mechanical Engineering from Union College, I have over 5 years of tutoring experience in various math subjects, including Algebra, Calculus, and Trigonometry. My teaching philosophy centers on creating a supportive learning environment where students feel empowered to explore complex concepts. I strive to connect with each learner through tailored methods that cater to their unique needs and learning styles. My goal is to inspire confidence and foster a love for mathematics, enabling students to achieve their academic objectives. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy exploring new technologies and engaging in problem-solving challenges, which further enrich my approach to teaching.
Hello! My name is Tom and I am intervention specialist with Cincinnati Public Schools. Presently, I teach students in the 4th, 5th and 6th grade and I specialize in reading, writing and math. I have some training in Orton Gillingham as well and I have used that method to assist students with early literacy skills including phonemic awareness, fluency, comprehension and vocabulary. In math, I can offer support in streamlining multistep math problems and offer opportunities for repeated practice, anchor charts for multistep problems and use of visuals to support visual learners. My approach is calm, patient and flexible. Reach out if you have any questions! Let's make learning fun!
I am a second year student in the Clinical Psychology doctorate program at Midwestern University in Downers Grove. While my specialty is Psychology, my other passions are writing and reading. I studied Creative Writing at New York University in addition to Psychology (with a Child/Adolescent Mental Health Studies focus) and graduated Magna Cum Laude. In my free time I love going to live music in Chicago and playing mandolin. I think my studies have given me a unique perspective on what makes tutoring effective. In addition to teaching the academics of the subject, I find it important to identify the obstacles to learning the child may be experiencing (such as anxiety, testing environment, interpersonal difficulties, learning styles) and focus on enhancing the child's strengths to build self-efficacy. I am also experienced in teaching relaxation techniques to help a child cope with the stresses of their academics. I easily build rapport with children and understand the importance of good communication between the parents and teachers in order to optimize the tutoring experience.
I am an econ-math student, attending NYU. As a result, I am specifically interested in students who need help in math, economics, and, well, the ACT. I love to challenge students as a means to provoke their curiosity in these subjects. Outside of academics, I am an avid soccer fan; I produce music; and I ski.
I am a passionate, committed Italian- American graduate student, pursuing a Master's Degree in International Education at New York University. I have just graduated from the University of Venice in Languages and International Relations. I have been travelling to England, Ireland, and the U.S.A and during my high-school and undergraduate years I have approached as different subjects as American English, French, Language Teaching Methods, World and American History, which are most of the subjects I am tutoring for. I also took standardized tests, that is why I know some good tricks to approach critical and analytical writing. The subjects I most enjoy tutoring for are languages, because you can get a real sense of the student's improvements and level of satisfaction. I have been tutoring students from different ages, that is why I developed an individually-targeted teaching method, depending on the student's needs. I always try to make my lessons funny, enjoyable and as easy as possible. I am passionate about working with and for students because I strongly believe in education as a powerful tool of personal and social change. In my free time, I enjoy reading a lot of fiction and poetry, or just hanging out with friends and always be on the lookout for new movies and plays!

I believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to learn and excel. A Presidential Honors Scholar at New York University, I have benefited from many opportunities in my education, and I aspire to use my experiences to teach others. I have taken the SAT, ACT, and several AP exams, and I am a recipient of an award from the French Department at NYU.I first became passionate about tutoring in high school, when I would assist other students in mathematics. I also have experience working with elementary school students in a bilingual New York City public school. One of the aspects of tutoring that I always look forward to is when students are able to confidently join their peers.In order to succeed in math, I approach each problem as a puzzle, and I encourage my students to try this out.
My goal is to provide the most constructive learning experience for my students. I try to cater to your individual needs and make sure you understand the material I teach very well. I am compassionate and understanding, but also willing to work hard to get you to reach your goal.
I'm driven by an unwavering passion for guiding students on their educational journeys and igniting a genuine love for learning. Beyond this, my mission is to contribute to the increasing diversity in STEM fields by supporting minority students in realizing their full potential. My experience is broad - I have a Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics, with a minor in Spanish, from NYU; and have also tutored elementary to college-level courses, for both volunteer and paid positions. Furthermore, I'm currently a student myself - studying and completing actuarial qualifications. These experiences have afforded me insight into the various challenges and opportunities presented by the academic arena. Therefore, I think every student should be supported according to their unique positions and I tailor my lessons for effectiveness. Mathematics is not only my favorite subject but also my preferred area for tutoring. I find its intricacies challenging and beautiful, sometimes even comical. The problem-solving skills that a student develops while learning the topics help, not only in other subjects but, in life as well.
Ultimately, my goal as a tutor is to empower my students to achieve their academic goals and build confidence in their abilities. I take pride in seeing my students make progress, overcome challenges, and succeed in their studies. I am excited about the opportunity to bring my passion, knowledge, and experience to your tutoring program and make a positive difference in the lives of my students.
My experience in education spans multiple formats such as counselor for summer research camps, teaching assistant for college courses, tutor for college courses, and dance instructor. These different positions have pushed me to broaden my perspective on how to communicate with students and address the topics they do not understand. While my educational background has more than prepared me to understand the basics of the science subjects that my students were studying, my goal as an instructor reaches beyond simply teaching the lesson; I also aim to spark my student's interests in the subject and make the lesson fun for them. I know from personal experience that learning any lesson is easier when one is interested and enjoys the learning experience. To that effect, I use concepts and analogies that relate to the students and grab their interests, and this relation may be from other topics or courses they have previously studied or an experience they come across on a daily basis. The latter is especially effective since that daily experience would serve to reinforce the lessons for the students and commit it to memory. These techniques, along with others, work well for tutoring since we often must cover a large amount of information in a relatively short amount of time.
Hiya :-) I'm a graduate of NYU Tisch School of the Arts (BFA, Drama/Dramatic Writing), a Sundance Screenwriter's Lab finalist, and a well-published academic writer/theorist who currently works with the Institute for Critical Animal Studies and the historic US peace and climate justice organization Promoting Enduring Peace. I'm also as an experienced educator with extensive international teaching experience in the fields of English, history, psychology and drama. I love using my diverse background to help students envision and create the lives and world they want to live in! My international teaching experience includes five years in China teaching college-prep English essay writing, literature, world history, psychology, TOEFL prep and SAT reading comprehension/grammar/vocabulary, as well as assisting students with college application essays, through the China Social Welfare Education Foundation. I also taught ESL for seven months in rural Nicaragua, and spent 6 weeks touring the Middle East, performing in a circus troupe for refugee children. Other teaching experience includes teaching courses at Wesleyan University's Green Street Arts Center on Middle Eastern history and the history of Utopian movements/ideas, teaching at a Korean prep school in Queens, NY, serving as an artist mentor to homeless children in the NYC shelter system, and teaching drama to 4th and 5th graders in Cypress Hills, Brooklyn. As an educator, I bring all of my interests, ideas, experiences and inspiration into conversation with the subject matter at hand, for a truly interdisciplinary approach. My teaching style is dynamic, empathetic, collaborative and holistic, and my process is always focused on asking thought-provoking questions to help students find core themes, principles and connections in both the material we are studying, and the development of their own ideas. I believe that education is all about liberation, and that my job as an educator is to empower students with the tools they need to understand and shape their own realities. If you are seeking a one-of-a-kind educational experience that will expand your perspective and electrify your imagination, please get in touch! I am already excited to work with you, and help you make your dreams come true.
As someone passionate about my own education, I view tutoring as a wonderful opportunity to share this love with others! I've worked at a YMCA overnight summer camp for three years (catering to children ages 8-16), and have ample experience teaching, learning, and working directly with peers of all ages. As a tutor, I am determined to give my students the best, most educational and engaging experience outside the classroom as possible. I tutor to inspire!I am a freshman in my first semester at New York University, studying to create my own major of Political Satire. Idealy, this will involve be a combination of Creative Writing and Political Science, with a minor in Screenwriting. I'm also a recent graduate of Phillips Academy, a boarding preparatory school in Andover, Massachusetts.I tutor a wide range of a subjects, including (but not limited to): writing (all grades), reading comprehension (all grades), Algebra 1, and test prep.Outside of academia, I am passionate about a wide range of activities! I love to write, namely poetry and creative fiction. I sing with an a cappella group, perform stand-up, and write for a sketch comedy troupe. I'm also a lifeguard, and teach classes on First Aid/CPR/AED at a local community center.
I am a recent graduate from NYU where I received a B.A. in Mathematics and a B.A. in Language and Mind, a joint major between Linguistics and Psychology.I believe my areas of study demonstrate my approach to learning. I have always loved quantifying information to make it more digestible, but I will still think out of the box. This notion is especially important when analyzing language; after all, it is a human construct and an exact representation can be elusive.Here is a short anecdote, which I usually use tell people to sum up my way of thinking. When I was a child, twiddling my thumbs during a long road trip, I would grab a pen and paper and attempt to draw. I could imagine the details I wanted to create, but the drawing never came out the way I would picture it. So, I would play with numbers, because I could create the value. I can specifically remember multiplying 2 by itself 20 times, just to see what would happen, and I had no idea that I was uncovering an exponential growth rate.For the students that I will tutor, I will not only provide them with mathematical rigor, but also help them to picture the concept, as a way of developing their intuition.
As a teacher, I am passionate about supporting students' critical thinking and communication skills. I strive to help students discover and refine their unique, writerly voices, and communicate their ideas more clearly and effectively. In working with students, I try to meet them where they are at in their learning journey and encourage their growth by offering new ideas and ways of thinking about topics. My primary strength is in formal, academic writing: I was published twice as an undergraduate, and I continue to work toward publications in my graduate career. However, I'm able to adjust to whatever writing style fits the needs of the project at hand.
I am a recent graduate of NYU Drama and an avid learner. My goal in working with students is to cultivate a passion for the material, to contextualize the content, and to transfer that excitement into articulate conversations. For me, anything and everything is an opportunity to gain insight whether inside the classroom or out. I have always loved guiding people through material - whether in an art museum with my parents or in class with my friends. This passion for school is augmented by a deep understanding of learning techniques and study skills. So while I believe the key to a student understanding material is a deep engagement with it, I also have tools to help recall and organize information. I specialize in History, Psychology, English, Reading, and Writing. I have experience with a wide variety of age groups from 10 to 18.I am a theater director and freelance artist. However, when I am not at the theater I can be found listening to podcasts, watching reality tv, playing video games, or reading. Travelling is one of the best things I have ever done for myself. I just got finished solo backpacking around Europe this summer and have been to India, China, Australia, and Central America.

I am a sophomore Chemical Engineering major at NYU. I was born in New York but when I was very young, I moved to Pakistan, where I lived a large part of my life. I came back for college and now, I live 40 minutes away from where I used to live 17 years ago. I hope to work in the renewable energy sector after I graduate. Renewable energy is the future and it is vital that we take it seriously.I'm a huge cricket, soccer, movie and T.V show lover. I also love travelling and experiencing different cultures. Living in the New York these past 2 years has been the greatest experience of my life by far and I want to continue it as long as possible.Last Spring, I worked as a academic tutor at a New York Public School for America Reads and Counts NYU.

They knew the importance of an education and how it would impact their lives. The whole experience greatly increased my love for teaching.As a teacher, it is important to realize that there is no single method of teaching. Not all students can be taught the same way. Some of them require a little bit of guidance initially and they figure everything out themselves. Others need a bit more help every step of the way and recognizing the students' needs early on is vital. Building their confidence is the key.

I attended NYU for my undergraduate studies and I am currently finishing up my graduate studies at LIU Brooklyn. It is my belief that education is the key to improving our communities. As educators it is not our job to give our students the answer, rather it is our duty to teach them how to be critical and independent thinkers.

While I tutor a variety of subjects, math is my specialtyfrom Algebra 1 & 2 to Trigonometry and Geometry. I also support students in English and Living Environment/Biology. I'm a firm believer that there's no one-size-fits-all approach to learning. I'm patient, encouraging, and always willing to explore problems from multiple perspectives because every student thinks differently. My goal is to build confidence, not just comprehension, by creating a safe space where students feel comfortable asking questions and making mistakes. My tutoring style is patient, adaptive, and centered around making sure students truly understand the "why" behind what they're learning.

I hope I can help you discover/stay in touch with the ones inside us all.
