More About This Tutor...

I teach very young beginners (under 5) via the Suzuki Violin Method. Other students are taught utilizing traditional teaching approaches, method books ranging from A Tune a Day to study books by Hrimaly, Sevcik, Shraidieck and more. They learn to incorporate their technical skills which are honed by learning scales, positions, and studies in their repertoire such as short pieces of music and student and professional concertos for the Violin.
I have taught violin lessons to students of all ages and levels for 20 + years. Letters of reference are available upon request. I am also a graduate of the Manhattan School of Music and have been critically acclaimed as a Violin Solo Recitalist in New York State. As a professional violinist I have performed at Broadway shows, for free lance professional orchestras and more in the NY area and currently I manage and perform with an ensemble cal ... read more

I am a young engineer and Air Force officer highly motivated by the prospect of seeing others succeed. I have a B.S. in Industrial and Management Engineering which has given me ample experience in mathematics, most notably statistics, and the sciences. I have participated in a number of research projects where I have been given the opportunity to use what I’ve learned in practical applications. In addition to math and science, I am experienced in report writing and have excellent grammatical skills. I have two years experience tutoring older students math-related classes, and eight years experience tutoring children as young as eight in the violin and viola, both of which I am proficient in.
Math and science did not always come easy to me as a student, so I know how frustrating it can be for someone to struggle in school. As a tutor, I work hard to give my students the confide ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Music, and working with students who enjoy music is my passion. My experiences have shown that some students can be shown or told, while others understand through strictly listening, or even by doing or saying nothing! Francois Rabbath demonstrated how correcting intonation could be as simple as moving a persons' finger. By doing so the musician remembers their finger was in the wrong spot and where it should be placed through muscle memory! My teachings are proven to work, and every student who has worked with me has had fun and has walked out of the lessons with a smile on their face and enhanced knowledge. There are many different ways to teach; however, in music depending on the student there is always a way the student learns best.
Since the third grade, I have been striving to always do my best in music. I kept improving and eventually was able to lead myself to several orche ... read more

Have a BS degree in Economics from Fordham University. Twenty years of experience writing real estate appraisal reports have improved my writing abilities greatly. High School regents final grades were 98 on Algebra. 96 on geometry and 78 on trigonomitry (hardest class in high school). I believe I got a B in calculus both in high school and college. Have privately tutored math students in high school and college as well as over the past four years. Helped several students pass GED as well as do well in Algebra and Geometry. Have recently received the CompTia A+ PC Technician certification and am pursuing the CCNA Cisco Associate Network certification.
I enjoy helping students who need extra help. I have much patience and understanding. I start from the ground up, don't skip any steps and become familiar as I can with students abilities, strengths as well as weaknesses. I e ... read more

Teaching is a unique opportunity to shape a child’s world. I want to help children achieve their best, and have found that accomplishing this goal is best undertaken by exercising patience, care, and honesty. I believe interacting with all children is very important and having a strong relationship with them will also improve my learning abilities. With the appropriate tutelage, all children can succeed to their maximum potential.
I was very motivated to accomplish a high level of excellence in education, and have earned a BS degree in both Meteorology and Mathematics. Although initially motivated to study meteorology, I took on the additional math major soon after because of my longtime love of numbers. Both majors complemented each other and enhanced my problem solving abilities. Further, both majors have afforded me the opportunity to apply Microsoft Excel to my laboratory ... read more
