My love for teaching began shortly after completing my first master's degree in Child Psychology. I felt there was no better place to help children thrive than in the classroom. I have spent a total of 23 years in education, working with students from all backgrounds and walks of life. Serving children (including my own) has been my life's work, and I believe I have a keen ability to build fond relationships with young people. I firmly believe that every person can learn anything by drawing on their strengths and genuine interests. After earning a second master's degree in Library and Information Science, I taught in the high school library and gained experience teaching a variety of subjects. Currently, I work with high school and college students in the following subjects: college essay prep, SATs and ACTs, Sports and Exercise Science, Anatomy, IB HS program ELA and History Investigations, ELL, French, Psychology, MCAT, and more...I am also a book publisher and magazine editor. I have published award-winning works in the fields of education and healthcare, and I believe that these works, combined with my past experiences, have positioned me to provide the best quality education to students that I possibly can. In my free time, I enjoy playing the piano, strength training, attending opera performances, and traveling with my family. I look forward to working with each of you and helping you gain confidence in your abilities to learn anything.

Tutoring English to elementary school students was a meaningful experience because I was able to help young students improve their reading and writing skills while also building their confidence. I worked with students on reading comprehension, spelling, vocabulary, and sentence structure, and I learned that patience and encouragement are very important when helping children learn. Over time, I saw students become more confident in their abilities and more willing to participate and try, even when the work was difficult. This experience helped me develop strong communication, patience, and leadership skills. It also showed me how rewarding it is to help others learn and grow. Tutoring has inspired me to continue working with children in the future and has helped me grow both personally and academically.

When I was in college, I did my best to establish myself as the cool guy who just happened to be smart, and not the nerd who was trying too hard to be cool. Part of the reason why I love tutoring is because it allows students to see me in a different light - while I may be smart in certain aspects, I don't know everything, and I will never carry myself as if I do know everything. My objective is to share my knowledge in a way that is understood, and in a way that is fun. One of my favorite things to see is the light bulb go off in a student's head. I'm definitely looking forward to getting to know you!

I'm a licensed Chinese teacher in China and I also have a certificate of Mandarin Proficiency Test from The Ministry of Education of the People's Republic of China. With over 16 years Mandarin teaching experience, I have taught hundreds of students spanning from Pre-K to adults. I began my teaching career in a Chinese language school in China, where I taught Chinese Reading, Writing and Speaking classes. While at university, I was a TA for the Chinese language and culture course and I also held Chinese tutoring sessions with students after class. I'm currently a Mandarin and Chinese culture teacher in a school in NY, teaching students in Chinese language while incorporating hands on activities, culture studies and traditional Chinese holiday events. My teaching philosophy is totally student centered and I believe every student learns differently, therefore I will work to figure out the best learning style and make personal lesson plans for students based on their age, personalities, interests and learning goals. I don't teach just the Chinese language, I also include music, art, food and interesting cultural artifacts into the lessons to make the learning fun, and to help students understand the target language culture. For students want to gain their conversational skills, my goal as a tutor is to instill confidence so my students can communicate in Chinese in their daily, academic and professional lives, they can manage most communication in Chinese when meeting with Chinese friends or families, or travelling/working/ studying in China, and for students who is learning Chinese for school or preparing for a test, I am dedicated to helping students improve their school performance and achieve their academic goals. I'm familiar with variety of the most popular Chinese textbooks for foreign language learners (beginner, intermediate and advanced level) such as the HSK standard course, new practical Chinese, integrated Chinese, Boya, Easy steps to Chinese, Conversational Chinese 301and etc. I am passionate about sharing the Chinese culture and language with my students and find great satisfaction in seeing their progress.

All students can learn, and I enjoy helping them do so successfully! The best part of teaching is that moment when a student sees their progress and realizes all their dreams really can come true. I've been working with students with special learning needs for over 30 years in Reading, Writing, and Math. I enjoy teaching all these subjects, each for different reasons. Reading and writing go together and for me bring real joy. I struggled with math myself as a kid, so I've gathered lots of resources to help students figure out math in whatever ways connect best with their brains. All learning is interesting to me, and I like sharing my passion for learning with others. I got my Bachelor's degree in Nursing, then I got my Master's in Elementary Education, and a few years later I added permanent certification in teaching students with learning handicaps. In my spare time, I enjoy reading fantasy novels, playing board games, and watching videos from various sources.
