ACT is one of my top subjects!

***I am an expert when it comes to SAT, ACT, and Praxis exams!*** My name is Aalok and I am a full time professional tutor. I can help students who are struggling, students who are looking to excel, and everyone else in between. I strive for complete satisfaction and never charge for a session unless you are completely satisfied. "I wish I had called you sooner." That's what I hear most often from clients/students/parents. I won't go so far as to say I make tutoring fun, but I make sure it's engaging and meaningful. Tutoring isn't just memorization and repetitive practice drills; that's passive and wastes time. I've even worked with other tutors and educators to hone their skills and improve their teaching styles. I have over six years of experience working as a full time professional tutor. I have taught/tutored over 1400 students. I've taught over 600 students in a classr ... read more

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.

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 includes such issues as time management, test taking, study habits, and, sometimes, acculturation. My teaching methodology follows these simple steps: Step 1: Motivation Step 2: Definition & Understanding of terms Step 3: Explanation, exploration, discussion, debate Step 4: Questions & Answers Step 5: Practice: Time & Effort Step 6: Demonstration (or proof) I absolutely believe that motivation is required for learning. I have found that students become more motivated to learn when they understand how they will profit from the experience. I teach ‘communication’ all the time, regardless of the subject matter. Throughout the course of ... read more

Ivy League Graduate and TEFL Certified English Tutor

In my ESL classes, I try to stress communication and emphasize the skills that will help the students use the language independently rather than lecture them. I will use a similar approach with you, but will be flexible enough to adapt to your needs. I will have challenging assessments for my students to ensure they understand the concepts covered in the class and provide insightful feedback so that they can continue to improve.
Hello there! My name is Nikhil and I would love to be your English tutor and help you improve your confidence with the language. I have several years of teaching experience, which have helped me develop the important skills of patience, communication, creativity, and being organized which are important to being an effective teacher.

A Little Bit About Me...

During my tenure in the classroom, I justified that all students can learn and perform above average if given the appropriate environment, and the teacher is in the best position to enact it. I strongly express my passion for what I do, and this has a ripple effect on the students, who in return express passion for their class. I use positive approach to teaching, guaranteeing all my students that they cannot fail if we all stick to the plan (and I mean it). In addition, speaking word of motivation and encouragement help students to get up when you are not there. In summary, I don’t quit on any student, and no one that steps into my class or tutoring session leaves the same (my math/science jokes bring them back).
My curiosity to understand systems and solve complex problems drove me to major in Computer & Information Science and minor in Mathematics. Due to my approach to presenti ... read more

My original plan was to major in Education, but decided to double major in school, then obtain my teaching certificate after graduation. Now, armed with two degrees and a desire to enter the academic world once again -this time as the teacher - I am currently in the middle of getting my certificate for subbing, as well as seeking employment/ my certificate through Teach for America. I have gained experience that has helped me prepare to be a fantastic tutor: I took my PRAXIS exam and scored 90% on all three subject matters, I have tutored special needs students at the high school level, I have tutored ESL, and have been both a day camp and wildnerness guide, leading and teaching people of all ages and backgrounds.

More About This Tutor...

I have taught Mathematics/Statistics at all levels (B.S. and M.S) at both US and Indian Universities for over 3 decades. Because of my passion for teaching, I have taught Mathematics and Statistics in George Washington University, National Institute of Health and University of Virginia, while being a Team Leader/Vice President in Food and Drug Administion and INC. Research, respectively. I have also remotely guided a couple of Senior High School Students in their AP Mathematics courses and project work in Statistics.
I am a firm believer in teaching the basic concepts in Mathematics and Statistics in a constructive way so that the students would comprehend/understand the problem and work on their own with some guidance. When I was a graduate student, I was a very popular teaching assistant.

I worked at the writing assistance center in Madrid, Spain and I have taught English to adults and teenagers as well as teaching Spanish to 8th grade students in St. Louis Missouri.

More About This Tutor...

I believe that effective communication and a supportive environment is crucial to a good teaching/learning relationship. I don't mind questions, in fact I encourage them at any time! I see learning as a 2-way street. It is the students responsibility to stop me immediately and ask questions if he/she does not understand. It is my responsibility, in response, to answer those questions and find a new way of explaining the problem so he/she does understand it. I believe a student should be able to "talk" mathematics as well as "write" it. My philosophy regarding math is as follows: it is a fantastic way of looking at the world and also improves necessary critical thinking skills in a student.
I hold both a BA in Mathematics and an MS in Statistics from Rutgers Univeristy. I have sucessfully tutored 36+ students since 1991. I also have broad technical writing experience from complet ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is focused on student achievement. Many parents complain that their child does poorly on tests. This is often a result of inadequate teaching practices which fail to recognize individual learning differences in students. My goal in teaching is to individualize the learning process for each student, so that the student understands and retains knowledge and is able to explain what they learned. This process increases their test scores and confidence. Students often require that educational materials be modified or accommodated to meet their particular needs. My experience in special education has shown that all students can achieve if knowledge is properly presented and goals well defined.

A Little Bit About Me...

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. During my time as a undergraduate I completed my studies in the field of Business Administration with provided me with the tools and know-how how to succeed in the today's ultra-competitive marketplace. Achieving my Master’s Degree in the field of Higher Education allowed me to hone my research and learni ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As an educator and mother, I have learned to be patience with kids and that is important for a teacher. Some kids require more time to learn than others do. I am persistence, tolerant, and love to challenge their little minds with didactic games. I think that listening to children is important to understand their needs. I also believe that sometimes leaning and fun can go hand and hand, and having a sense of humor sometimes makes things easier. Kids love to learn new things and so do I. I think my curiosity is one of my principal qualities; I am very curious in leaning. I am enthusiastic, responsible, respectful, fair and mature. I am happy with my work and sometimes think that I could not live if I were not able to teach.
I have struggle and work hard to achieve my goals and was always hungry for knowledge. I came to this country in search of a better future, but without hard work ... read more
