As a student who has dabbled in so many areas, it is easy for me to assess when a teacher/professor is not explaining a concept in a method that helps the students. I have previous experience tutoring, but my teaching talent comes from my role as the unofficial tutor for most of my classes. I can see why students are missing the concept and I am creative enough to devise new approaches.
I am a successful graduate of Susquehanna University, having earned a BA in International Studies. This study of cultural anthropology allowed me ample experience with writing, grammar, and research. I will be attending Rutgers University next year to earn a Master of Science degree in Microbiology. I am very experienced in the subjects of Biology, Chemistry, and Math on all levels. In addition to my devotion to the sciences, I have maintained an advanced-conversational level of fluency in French an ... read more

In my 10 years of tutoring experience, I worked with more than 100 students from many different backgrounds and countries, which exposed me to different ways that students learn. Some did not know English, others were used to different alphabets and calculating systems. I believe that key to teaching is care, patience and motivation. In my classes, I use a variety of styles; I am trying to be as descriptive as possible utilizing my superb graphic skills and trying to relate to everyday’s life. For me the most important thing is teaching a student how to think in a methodological way. With my system, my students develop their own learning techniques and take control of their studying.

A Little Bit About Me...

Upon graduation from NYU's Courant Institute of Mathematics, I taught for one year as an Adjunct Lecturer of Mathematics at Hunter College. The following year, I was recruited by the NYC Board of Education and taught two years full-time as a High School Teacher of Mathematics in the NYC public schools. After earning my MBA in Accounting, I continued to teach college Accounting courses at Pace University and NYU. I also participated in a NYC Board of Ed Mentoring Program 1995-96. Since my college days, I have always tutored. This year I tutored my daughter in her French class at Hunter College. She got an A.

As my parents always told me, I believe that education is a transcendent part of everybody's lives. I have earned a BS in Biochemical Engineering, and almost a BS in Apply Mathematics, at Rutgers University. Since I was in my native country I had a very clear goal in mind. I wanted to get a broader level of education, than just simply assuring a future professional career. In order to achieve that I decided to pursue my studies in a different country. This came along with a language that I had to learn and a different educational system. I complemented the science core of my bachelors with Philosophy, Cognitive Psychology and Anthropology among others. I always tutored either Math or Spanish while my school years, but when I was senior, the School of Engineering selected me as a tutor for incoming engineering students. Chemistry and Calculus were the main topics, but later I also helped ... read more

Anyone can learn a language. I believe that each student learns differently. It is imporant to find out what the style is and create lessons accordingly. In learning a new language, I feel it is most important visual, audio and writing tools into every lesson. I am easy-going, patient, fun-loving, yet stern. These are very important and necessary qualities for a teacher to have. I strive for my students to feel the same passion I feel for languages.
Since high school, I have had the opportunity to share my passion with others intermittantly, sometimes through formal tutoring sessions and sometimes in a more laidback environment. Although my work experience is in a business-like environment, I have learned the tools to communicate clearly and effectively with a variety of personalities. The extensive essays and research papers I have written in Italian have developed my gramm ... read more

In 2004, I started as a math teacher in the New York public schools, as a member of the New York City Teaching Fellows. I worked there for about 8 months. During that time, I began tutoring privately. I quit my position as a teacher in the public schools, because it was too emotionally taxing, but continued to tutor privately. I moved to New Jersey, where I home schooled a student for two years in: math (algebra), world history, biology, english, and spanish. I also continue to tutor privately. I have worked for Brattle Street Coaching, and as an SAT tutor for the Princeton Review.
I like to gauge where the student is then go from there. If a student is having a problem, I try to see where there might be a gap in the backround knowledge, then fill it in, or if there is a problem in their processing of the information, I try to correct it. I do this fairly quickly. I' ... read more

My first experience teaching was as a counselor at an ESL Summer Academy. After graduating, in 2008, I accepted a position as an instructional assistant at a High School in Storrs, Connecticut. When the school year ended, I was offered a contract to work as an English Teacher at an Academy in Korea! I have also been coaching male and female hockey players ages 4-20 since 2003. In addition to my professional experience in education and coaching I have extensive academic accolades. During the course of my undergraduate endeavor I had the pleasure of presenting at several conferences. Most notably, in November 2007, I presented at the Alliance of Universities for Democracy (AUDEM) International Conference in Cluj-Napoca, Romania.
