My comments on tutoring ACT : I am a College Professor (History, Philosophy, Ethics, English) with many years of tutoring experience. I have taught several test-preparation courses. I have helped many students to achieve well on standardized tests. I am patient and understanding. I have a math/science background and have been teaching basic skills (reading, writing, oral communication) for 30 years.

I have been teaching college (History, Philosophy, Ethics, writing, reading, social studies) since the early 1980's. I have taught in New York (LaGuardia Community College), Connectiuct (Three Rivers Community College), New Jersey (Mercer County Community College) and Pennsylvania (Bucks County and Montgomery County Community Colleges and ). I have also taught online (University of Phoenix, DeVry University and The Iowa Consortium of Community Colleges). I have tutored many college and high school students, as well as grammar school students. I have taught several test preparation classes and helped many students to raise their test scores.
In my experience, the majority of students are highly motivated. This is, for me, the key to success. However, very often, students require assistance with a wide range of ‘remediation’ in many of life’s basic competencies: a skill set that incl ... read more

First we get to know each other. Often I can create examples to illustrate problems based on the student's interests and experience. If you had any trouble on a recent test or homework assignment, we can begin by reviewing any problems you might have had on those. I will show you why the correct answers are right, and why the wrong answers are wrong. I am an excellent listener, and I always find a way to make the lessons fun.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have always been a lifelong learner, and I see tutoring as an extension of my desire to consistently review and engage with all academic material. The liberal arts education that I received at Scripps College set the standard to appreciate and learn a variety of subjects. I received two bachelor degrees, BA in Art History and BA in French, but also spent considerable time taking math and science courses. My writing skills also significantly developed during this time, and particularly came to full fruition during my graduate work in Art History. For both my BA and MA degrees, I had to produce unique, independently researched theses that were at least 12,000 words in length. Since then, I have delved into the sciences at the University of Pennsylvania, where I completed all necessary pre-medical coursework. I have also been working with special needs children in Philadelphia public ... read more

Hello, I graduated with a PhD. in analytical chemistry from the Department of Chemistry, University of Massachusetts in Amherst. My research work during my PhD career involved synthesis, purification, analysis and utilization of proteins and PEGylated proteins in bioanalytical experiments. These experimental studies resulted in several publications in scientific journals. In addition, I have considerable experience in training undergraduate chemistry students. Recently, I had the opportunity to tutor at Westfield State College as a visiting lecturer, where I thought a second year organic chemistry class together with a laboratory session associated with the class.

More About This Tutor...

Mathematics is a joy and privilege to teach students because of its extensive relationship to the world and connection to everyday life. I believe that you need to relate to a child’s prior knowledge in order to gain an understanding of future material. I value a child’s discovery of a topic and act as a guide in my students learning. I challenge my students to think critically but also acknowledge their need to learn differently. One benefit of mathematics is the ability to teach a topic various ways so that all children can succeed. Using manipulative, visuals and technology my students can master material in a way that is meaningful to their learning style.
I have always been intrigued by mathematics especially it’s connection and explanations for various fields of science. By teaching my students the foundations of math I have grown to enjoy and appreciate it even more. ... read more

My teaching style consists of helping students work through and understand the problem/assignment. Also from my days of collegiate sports I truly understand that practice makes perfect. I love working with students and helping them realize that they are smarter than they are allowing themselves. With a little patience and structure most students can achieve much more than they give themselves credit
As a student-athlete and Philadelphia native I always understood that higher education was a privilege and not a guaranteed right; with this in mind I also greatly valued my education.

More About This Tutor...

As an active member of Mensa International and someone who's consistently done well in number-related fields, I've come to love teaching what I can understand. I perceive the world in a very unique way and I excel at using my perspective to help my students understand what others typically have difficulty imparting to them. I aim to one day be a professor and I love to inspire learning in and out of the classroom.
As an undergraduate at UConn, I pursued a number of fields from computer science to communications and philosophy, giving me a wide range of experience in a multitude of subject areas. In my senior year, I became a substitute teacher for grades 7-12 in all subjects. I am currently a graduate student in criminal justice, writing papers and doing research almost continuously.

My experience comes from a variety of places which accounts for my adaptability. I obtained an associates degree in Business Administration and went on to use that to get some experience in the business sector. I earned my Bachelors degree in Studio Arts and went on to get my Masters in Elementary Education. Since then I have used both my real world and my academic experience to teach students as both a classroom teacher and tutor. I have taught in the classroom to levels from Kindergarten through 3rd grade, and 7th grade as well. Additionally, in the past 2 years I have taught and tutored in test preparation for the SAT. In the 7 years I have now taught, it has become natural for me to assess and teach each student the best way for them.
I believe teaching should be an evolving, natural thing that constantly takes into account all the strengths and weaknesses presented, so that ... read more
