I'm a 27 year-old graduate of Syracuse University with a B.S. in Information Management & Technology, and a minor in Private Music Study. After graduating, I worked as a Technology Consulting in Financial Services for a large audit firm in New York City, before moving to the Copenhagen branch for one year. While available to assist with a broad range of subjects, I especially enjoy assisting students with mathematics, physics, and English. I like to focus on building a strong foundation with the core concepts that students may be struggling with, in order to ensure they have the tools to continue their learning on to more difficult topics, or just to be able to handle any problem thrown at them involving the basic topics. Tutoring students part-time is not only a job, but I find it one of the more worth-while uses of one's time, to be able to foster an environment where students learn to think critically and analyze the situation at hand, so that they can apply these various skills and practices for the rest of their lives.

I have eleven years of experience teaching at the college level.

I have so many life and work experiences that I can't wait to share with learners young and old. I'm able to create unique, fun, and exciting learning experiences for all ages. My passion for reading, writing and the English language make me want to share my gift with others. I'd love to help you become an excellent writer and master of language.

I am a graduate from Syracuse University with a Master's degree in Spanish Language, Literature and Culture. During my time at Syracuse University I gained some valuable teaching experience as an Instructor of Spanish 101, 102, 201, 202, 211, 212 for undergraduate students; teaching one grammar (4 credits) and one conversation (1 credit) course per semester independently, with the guidance of the Spanish Language coordinator. I enjoy teaching and am considered to have a caring approach; my tutoring style is very clear and as a foreign language learner myself, I understand better my students' difficulties and I care about my students' best interest. I rely upon many activities that involve a total physical response by the students: develop the five language skills (listening, speaking, reading, writing, and culture) and which prepares students to communicate effectively in both written and spoken Spanish on a variety of topics related to themselves, their personal experiences, and everyday situations one might encounter in a Spanish speaking environment. In my spare time, I enjoy any kind of outdoors activities, specially hiking and backpackingand of course, traveling!

Hi there!I recently graduated from Syracuse University with a dual degree in English and communications. I adore the written word and spreading that love of it to young students. In college, I worked as both a Resident Advisor and a tutor to undergraduate and graduate students. Both opportunities gave me the chance to work with, mentor, and educate peers on curricular and co-curricular studies. Sharing my love of reading and writing is a great thrill of mine and I feel honored to get such an opportunity to do so.In terms of academia, my dual degree lent me the chance to hone my communications skills (I now work full time at a television production company focusing on documentary-style TV) as well as my skills in English. As a result, I became well-educated in both classic literature as well as contemporary literary theory focusing on a variety of topics such as gender, media, class and social structure, and an assortment of other theories and topics (all of which I'd love to chat about if given the opportunity).In my downtime, I love exploring and trying new things (mainly food) and I'm an avid animal lover.Here's some additional trivia about me:I was originally born in Texas (Air Force family)Trying new restaurants is one of my favorite activitiesFavorite movie: The Right Stuff (that Air Force family clearly had an impact on me...)Favorite book(s): Nothing compares to the Harry Potter series, in my humble opinionFavorite animal: My two golden retrievers, Logan and Skylar (though my cats make a decent bid for this vote)Favorite TV show: Mad Men (nope, my company doesn't make it - but I'm genuinely hooked on this series)I warmly encourage you to contact me! I look forward to meeting you.-Erin

These same principles guide my tutoring philosophyI believe every student can excel in mathematics when given the right support, patience, and encouragement. My teaching style is patient, adaptive, and focused on building genuine understanding rather than just memorizing formulas. I use real-world examples, visual aids, and interactive problem-solving to make abstract concepts concrete and relevant. I'm also comfortable integrating technology into lessons, whether that means using online tools, graphing calculators, or collaborative platforms that make learning more engaging. I specialize in: Middle School Math (Pre-Algebra, Algebra I, Geometry) High School Math (Algebra II, Trigonometry, Pre-Calculus, AP Calculus AB/BC) College Math (Calculus I-III, Linear Algebra, Differential Equations, Probability & Statistics) Test Prep (SAT Math, ACT Math, GRE Quantitative Reasoning) What I love most about tutoring is witnessing that "aha!" moment when a concept finally clicks for a student. I've seen countless students transform from saying "I'm just not a math person" to confidently tackling challenging problems and even developing a genuine appreciation for mathematics. My goal isn't just to help students pass their next testit's to equip them with problem-solving skills, logical thinking, and the confidence that will serve them throughout their academic and professional lives. Whether you're looking to catch up, get ahead, or simply build confidence in math, I'm here to support your learning journey with patience, expertise, and encouragement. Let's work together to unlock your mathematical potential!

I recently graduated with a 3.6 GPA from the S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications at Syracuse University, which is regarded as arguably the top communications program in the country. This comes after graduating from North Hunterdon High School with a 3.8 GPA and a 2140 composite SAT score. My best subject on the SAT was math, although I also scored highly on both the reading comprehension and writing sections. I also took the LSAT this year, scoring a 168 (96th percentile), which I actually found frustrating because it was lower than every single one of my practice tests (with my personal best being a 174). Because of this, I learned from my mistakes and am able to tutor both the subject matter of the LSAT as well as how to prepare for the test. I will be attending Vanderbilt Law School on a majority scholarship in the Fall. I have plenty of experience both in school and teaching friends and classmates material, as I tutored in college as well. I am a very friendly and outgoing person who likes to have fun, but also knows when to work and how to do so efficiently. I'm very excited aboutand grateful forthis opportunity to help others learn.

I am Lindsay. I am an avid lover of language, literature, writing, learning, artistic endeavors, athleticism, nutrition, and enhancement of the mind through those pursuits. That being said, I’d like to share my passion and enthusiasm for learning with you.I have been a teacher for 6 years. My teaching experiences are as follows:- middle school children English in the United States as a classroom assistant- middle school children English in Mexico as a lead teacher- American and international university age students Spanish as a part time instructor- high school age students Spanish as a high school teacher- international adults English at a non-profit center in Syracuse, as a student-teacher- kids yoga classes as the lead teacher- adult hatha yoga classes, asana, pranayama, meditation as the lead teacher- high school girls volleyball,basketball and track coachMy idea when I am teaching is that I am a facilitator. That means that you know how to do everything, you just don’t know that you know. My job is to show you that you have everything you need to do it yourself. Therefore, I ask questions to guide you, and in time you will see that you do indeed possess the necessary mental forces to complete the tasks before you of your own accord!When dealing with language, I use the communicative language approach, and focus on instilling a student-centered learning environment. I both create and ask the student to take part in creating course materials and shaping course content to foster interest in both learning and participating in their personal learning progress. I attempt to create an environment where a student feels no fear to ask questions, and is able to verbalize and communicate, and also is able to travel outside the classroom and use what we’ve learned in authentic contexts. I closely monitor student progress, and also am more than open to emailing and meeting at the student’s convenience.As far as my personality goes, I am a very caring, silly, open-minded individual. I genuinely am concerned for the welfare of those around me, which is why I am a yoga instructor. I also love academic pursuits, which is why I hope to be a tutor for who ever needs assistance.

I am a recent graduate of Syracuse University where I earned a Bachelor of Science Degree in Psychology and minors in both Biology and Medical Anthropology. Throughout my undergraduate career, I mentored small groups of Biology I and II students, guiding them through problem sets and study modules. I was also a Research Assistant in an undergraduate Psychology lab examining the effect of implementing reading and writing probes on third-grade students' literacy. My strengths lie in subjects such as Biology, Math, and Psychology and I am passionate about guiding students through subjects in a manner that is conducive to their individual learning styles.As a student, it took me some time to discover my own study habits through trial and error. I wish I had a mentor that was able to guide and support me during that process and I strive to be that mentor for my students. Together, we will assess and build your strengths, while noting weaker areas and developing methods to improve upon them.Currently, I am preparing my applications to Dental School. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time outdoors, cooking, and painting!

I am a experienced analytical chemist having worked as a Teaching Assistant, Research Assistant, Laboratory Analyst, and Laboratory Supervisor. My experience as a teaching assistant involved work in both a lab and classroom setting and as a supervisor I would aid the analyst in their understanding of various chemical reactions, techniques, instruments, and practices. My educational background includes a Master's Degree in Forensic Chemistry and and Doctoral Degree in Physical Chemistry. My thesis was on Environmental Chemistry where I became very familiar with Spectroscopy and Chromatography techniques including IR, UV, HPLC, and GC. When working with students I try to determine where the disconnect on a subject is and from there try various angles in order to get them to grasp the concept.

My passion in helping students stems from the fact that I was once one myself, and not a very good one. College was a door to a new opportunity of learning. As soon as I became a college freshman, I saw a different world opening before my eyes. Today, I work with many diverse students in different scenarios: Pre-K to college level; foreign students needing to learn English for careers as well as scholastically; and SAT and ACT preparation for students seeking to get into college. The one thing that's common in these various scenarios is my passion to help students that are apprehensive to learn because they don't know what to do, and teach them how to break down a situation and discover for themselves how to study, learn, and find out to derive the answer for themselves. My Bachelor of Arts degree in English from Syracuse University and my Master's certificate in TEFL/TESOL from Learning Tutoring were not easy to obtain, However, that goal was worth it as they prepare me each day to to teach, interesting, diverse students, and assist them in achieving their educational goals. In addition to proven teaching experience, I have 30+ years' work experience in three different industries--banking, advertising, and hospitality. Since I am teach for a variety of accredited institutions composed of students of many ages and from diverse cultures and backgrounds, my subjects include, but are not limited to: English (verbal, written and phonics), literature, essay writing, SAT and ACT English and math, history, science, filmmaking (award winning filmmaker), acting (union actor--SAG, AEA), 2D animation, drawing, painting, and Adobe Creative Suite. My favorite subject to teach is English--phonics, verbal, reading, and literature. My teaching style is hands-on. I just don't stand or sit there and lecture. Lectures are boring. As my resume and other documents state, I have 30 years experience as a union actor in good standing. Much of this acting experience has been in improvisation and role playing. I bring a lot of role playing activities into my class, especially when I am teaching foreign adults who need to know English for their jobs/or if the relocated to the U.S. My lessons are based on the students themselves. They're tailored to student individual needs. We do a student scenario, say applying for a graduate degree scholarship. If they are employed in an English speaking environment, we might do something where they are interviewing for a promotion. My philosophy is all about the 'individual student's needs,' whether I am teaching a class of six students or one-on-one. Outside of the class, I am interested in kayaking, filmmaking, and writing scripts and plays.

My math tutoring expertise spans elementary to college level across multiple areas, including: Algebra-Geometry-Trigonometry-Pre Calc-Calculus-Statistics-Advanced Engineering Mathematics. I began my career as an Aerospace Engineer, then moved into technology and have worked with all manners of orgs and audiences, from banks to insurers to universities to healthcare. My roles always involved 'real-world' applications of math, including educating audiences on technical subjects ranging from engineering calculations to statistical analysis to advanced analytics for business intelligence. Being neurodiverse myself, as well as having 2 daughters who also are, I understand how to connect with and deliver effective tutoring to neurodiverse students. I believe in patience, building confidence, and using tailored, engaging methods. I really enjoy helping students learn things they may think they are unable to, and have a very easygoing and creative approach. Happy to answer any questions.

With more than ten years teaching university, graduate and undergraduate students, I am accomplished academic, researcher, and mentor of academics and researchers. I have also trained students in preparation for university, both English testing and humanities. I hold a BA in History and in Philosophy from Spring Arbor University (MI), including studying abroad at Oxford University (UK). I hold an MA in Linguistics with a concentration on Language Teaching from Syracuse University (NY). I am working on a PhD from the Ohio State University (OH) in Foreign, Second, and Multilingual Language Education. In particular, I teach and mentor writers, and am experienced with everything from test preparation to dissertations and publications. Much of my teaching experience was in China, and I greatly enjoy the opportunity tutoring allows for me to work with learners of diverse backgrounds.

My tutoring approach is based on the following principles: Bloom's Taxonomy: I believe this is the best model for helping learners transition from a subject's basic concepts to subject mastery Accessibility: All learners deserve the same access to knowledge. Learning should not be limited by time, specialized needs, or learning and expression preferences. The Whole Learner: Each learner's interests, ambitions, and personality are not separate from learning but an essential part of it.

I am here to make learning about AP US History, AP European History, and on-level US History relatable, approachable, fun, and, hopefully, make students lifelong lovers of learning regardless of the subject.

Teaching is more than cramming loads of data into a student's mind. Teaching is the art of training a student's mind to think and never end the thirst for knowledge. I completed my BA Degree in History at Syracuse University and my JD Degree, cum laude, at The Delaware Law School of Widener University of Pennsylvania. I was the Research Editor of the Law Review and graduated 7th in a class of 267. I have over 15 years of experience as a college instructor and over 30 years of experience, tutoring and mentoring students, and young attorneys. I tutor students in American History, World History, Constitutional Law, Civics, The Government and Politics. My students range from Middle School to College and Graduate School and includes those students enrolled in AP Courses and Honors Classes. I also tutor students who are taking the PSAT, SAT, ACT, or LSAT. My favorite subject to tutor is History, as I bring the course alive for the student, show the student it's relevance in today's world and help the student to prepare for multiple choice, true and false, fill-in-the-blanks, and essay test questions. My tutoring style is to listen to the student and understand what he/she needs to succeed in a particular course. I work hand-in-hand with student to assist the student in achieving his/her goals. Outside of academia, I enjoy watching and participating in sports and trivia contests. I also am a member of a local Readers Theater Group and attend a variety of musical concerts and theatrical productions. My hobbies include, reading, travel, and my extensive model railroad layout.

I fully agree with the idea behind this quote: "Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid," and I live my life as a teacher accordingly-- knowing my main goal is to meet a student where they are, and to guide them in the best suited way for them.
