The motto of the Phi Beta Kappa Honor Society is "Love of learning is the guide of life". I live my own life by this ideal, and I try my best to instill a love of learning in my students. Too many students believe, indeed have been taught, that math is just a series of formulas and recipes to be learned and memorized. Understanding concepts doesn’t seem to be necessary or even desirable. No wonder students “hate” math! I believe that understanding important concepts is essential to learning math, and that obtaining the "right answer" is less important than trying to understand a problem and “discovering” a method to solve it, even if that method is “not what the teacher is looking for.”
I am a young Wall Street retiree with degrees in Mathematics, Computer Science and Finance. I have tutored students in Mathematics since my days on the Math Team at Stuyvesant High School. I w ... read more

I hold a master's degree in language education and certification as a public school teacher in two states, New York and New Jersey. In the last three years I have taught and tutored German, English, English as a Second Language, and standardized test preparation (including SAT, ACT, GRE, and TOEFL) in a variety of settings, including a public high school, a private Saturday school for heritage speakers of German, a small music college/tutoring center, and at the large state university SUNY Stony Brook. I have successfully helped students from ages nine to adult achieve their goals in whole-class, small-group, and one-on-one tutoring settings.
As far as possible, I adapt my teaching style to my students' needs. When I was teaching beginner-level German to an adult opera singer, I focused on helping her develop her conversational skills and pronunciation, using English to explain ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a NYS Certified Elementary School Teacher, currently working as a Staff Developer for Eastern Suffolk BOCES, training administrators and teachers to make data-driven instructional decisions, especially as these data relate to student performance on the NYS Assessments. My most recent classroom experience is at the early childhood level, where I have been the Lead Teacher in a pre-kindergarten classroom, and previously, the Director of a small, private nursery school. I spent a year facilitating a homework help group for school-age children at a local homeless shelter, and have 7 years experience preparing high school students for the SAT's. I have also tutored in GRE and LSAT for post-secondary students.

Earning a BS in Materials Science and Engineering involves knowledge of math, physics, and chemistry. Grammatical and writing skills have been strengthened over the years by writing for the college newspaper, laboratory reports and an extensive amount of research papers due to interests in public policy. Engineers usually cannot write; I can. I tutored extensively in high school, it was my primary income stream, while college revolved more around study groups where whoever knew the most took the lead. It was a revolving position but I often held it.
I feel that understanding the 'why' leads people to more easily grasp larger concepts and makes mistakes easier to recognize. After that practice is absolutely necessary: repetition IS the mother of learning. For children all this has to be presented in an accessible way. I try to contextualize problems in math and science in order to m ... read more

I bring in enthusiasm and love for knowledge. I want to inculcate the same in every student I interact with. One of my personal traits is perseverance. I want to encourage the same attitude in students with periodic challenges. My communication skills and academic excellence shall provide right environment for students to thrive. Students with lower grades need little extra support and I believe I can reach out to them with my patience and hope to entice them in learning with my creative methodologies. I am a target oriented person and I plan my work based on goals. I shall practice this with students too; each one shall have a predefined goal based on their talent and abilities as an individual. Working as a software engineer I was writing algorithms, this taught me to logically and systematically solve problems. As a teacher I shall educate students in practical, logical and systematic ... read more

All students learn in different ways, and one on one tutoring allows the teacher to address a student’s learning style in a way that is not easily done in the classroom. For instance, a student who is more historically inclined may benefit from a brief math history lesson related to the day’s topic. Or, a student who is strong in logical reasoning could benefit from seeing some simplified proofs. How I present material depends on how a student most comfortably processes it. I do, however, emphasize the practicing of problems. We learn math by doing math.
Teaching is my passion. I have served many hours as a tutor at my undergraduate institution and am currently enrolled in Queens College’s post baccalaureate initial certification program. I want to make teaching my profession and I hope to one day inspire and encourage students in a subject that often causes great discouragement, m ... read more

As a Masters of Library Science graduate, I am interested in sharing reference knowledge and tutoring students in English or Writing. Years as a corporate professional in marketing, manufacturing and retail along with a diverse education in Librarianship, Humanities & Creative Arts, Fashion Marketing has enabled me to learn Web 2.0 social media information technology skills, and edit, author training manuals, correspondence, essays, or freelance pieces.
I believe in encouraging all individuals to read, write and learn in a positive way that best fits his or her specific learning needs.

More About This Tutor...

I currently attend graduate school at Stony Brook where I'm working towards a Master of Public Health degree. I have undergraduate degrees in Physical Therapy and Biomathematics. I am excellent with standardized test preparation, never having placed less than the 90th percentile in any standardized test. I have never been a formal tutor. Yet, essentially, I have been tutoring and aiding peers and family members since elementary school. Additionally, I have served as a Big Brother for Long Island Big Brothers Big Sisters.
Teaching style? I tend towards an extrinsic, formal, and authoritative style. That said, I'm pretty easy to get along with, quite patient, and kinda fun. And 'formal' doesn't have to mean rigid. I will work hard to adjust and refine lesson plans to enable success in your area of study.
