My GPA was 3.8, and I was on Dean's list every semesterOne of the subjects I tutor is college statistics and a student of mine went from an F to a B.

Experienced and Proactive Educator

I believe that competence and confidence are BOTH important in learning. Students bring their own knowledge and learning styles to the process. It is the teachers job not only to adapt instructional style to best support the learner, but also to help the student understand his or her own learning style and needs.
Experienced and New York State Certified teacher. I have over 10 years experience teaching students in grades 1-12 and 5 years experience teaching adults. I also have extensive tutoring experience. I have an MA from Marist College as well as a BA from NYU. I have designed and taught SAT prep classes (verbal/writing portion) as well as developing curriculum integrating diverse domains of knowledge to create a broad, deep and flexible learning experience for students.

More About This Tutor...

As a Boy Scout I worked to help my fellow Scouts advance through the ranks and learn the skills that would help them become better Scouts and better young men. As an ESL teacher in both Germany and Spain I worked with a wide variety of students; from German civil engineers to Spanish middle schoolers. I also taught subjects such as Civics and Art through the medium of English. As a volunteer at my local library I have helped immigrants from diverse backgrounds gain a better grasp of the English language. At Huntington I work with students of various ages, from six to seventeen, on improving their skills as students.
The key to a good teaching style is creativity and adaptability. It is the job of the teacher to adjust his teaching style to fit the needs of the student. Some students respond well to visual cues; such as drawings in the case of teaching English as a Second Languag ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Languages are my passion. I learned to speak Spanish while studying in Spain prior to enrolling in college. Studying abroad was an education in and of itself, which enabled me to acquire valuable language and literature skills while sharpening my understanding of multiculturalism. Earning a BA in Spanish and a minor in Education, established a foundation to teach and tutor. I have taught Spanish at the secondary level for five years and have tutored for the last year and a half. A large part of my teaching and tutoring has been geared towards developing communicative skills while preparing students for both the Regents and Proficiency exams. In addition to my background in Spanish, I have completed a course of study to teach ESL to adults.
Learning should be meaningful, enjoyable and lasting. Establishing a solid student-to-teacher rapport is an essential ingredient in the learni ... read more

I have four and a half years of tutoring/mentoring experience, three of which were at the Warren Wilson College Writing Center. I helped ESL students with their composition and grammar skills, and worked with others to find strategies to approach their writing with less stress and more confidence. I moved to S.Korea shortly after my college graduation,and privately tutored students who were studying ESL. I designed the curriculum that supplemented their studies.My experiences working with children also include mentoring at-risk youth. Whether a student is studying for their SATs, or working on their grammar and writing skills, I have the tools and experience it takes to help them succeed.

More About This Tutor...

My teaching philosophy revolves around the notion that students need respect, encouragement, and guidance to succeed in all of their academic endeavors. I believe the best way to inspire students is by conveying our own passion for the subject through out attitude of reverence for the written word, our knowledge of literature and writing, and our confidence in our own skills as educators. I believe all students can learn to write well when given a relaxed environment where they can learn to express themselves in their own literary voices.
As a college and high school English instructor, I have had the opportunity to teach and tutor students on many different levels. I have worked with those in need of remediation as well as students who are are in honors or advanced placement classes. I have successfully tutored several students who have attended ivy league and top tier schools ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I believe that a love of school and learning begins with confidence in one's own abilities. Some find it easy, and others need a certain dose of encouragement and guidance to gain that self-assurance. As a tutor, I think it’s important to provide consistent practice and celebrate small successes so that the student rediscovers how good it feels to do well. In addition to regular exercises, I take the time to explain how and why things work and what their applications are in life outside school. I believe that this helps the student understand the rationale behind their efforts and can spark more enthusiasm to learn. I also try to identify each student’s special talents and incorporate them into my curriculum. That way, they can learn to identify what they are good at and how to apply those skills to any subject.
I have always loved to teach – even as a child in front of a tiny bla ... read more

I have several years of tutoring experience at various settings including urban, suburban, and rural high and middle schools. I have tutored such subjects as French, Spanish, Math, and English. I have also tutored college students in subjects including sociology, psychology, statistics, and others. I have instructed students on various study techniques, writing skills, and note-taking practices. I am currently a licensed social worker with a range of experiences building rapport with young people and collaborating with school staff and officials.
I enjoy tutoring immensely and look forward to beginning again. I like the challenge of engaging and reaching different types of learners. I use my social works skills in tutoring and vice versa. I think these two fields are closely related in the sense that I seek to empower my students as I would my clients.

As a multilingual German native speaker and graduate from Giessen University, Germany, I used to work as an English and German Teacher at a language and communication school in Germany for four years, before moving to the United States.

Furthermore, I taught German to non-resident employees.

To teach is to tie refinement of respect, unity of thoughts, sentimental attachment and truth by trusting each and every approach for coaching and highlighting the innovative ideas and inventions of students by your own creative and thought-provoking guidelines. I feel that students should be involved with their positive learning environment. In the classroom itself, the teacher needs to make the best utilization of the time allowed and must transmit the lesson to the students in the most palatable way. I want to teach and train the students. I would like to built in them the character which enables them to run the country progressively.
Being a student of English Linguistics and Literature, I always wanted to excel in my field of English. I have graduated in English literature and Masters in English Linguistics and Literature, which has polished my skills to teach ... read more

More About This Tutor...

After many years working as an accountant and teaching genealogy to adults I was asked to consider teaching English. To make that a reality I started teaching as a volunteer in a school in New Rochelle. When I confirmed that I had an aptitude for teaching and a desire to do it well, I took a certificate course in Manhattan to improve my skills as a teacher. I learned a great deal there and use those techniques to bring out the best in each of my students.
I have found my true passion in life. I teach with the firm believe and commitment that teaching (and learning) can be fun. Make no mistake, my students progress in their grasp of English but I try very hard to design my lessons around the students interest. I use games and puzzles in my classes to give the students a challenge. I am patient and love to see the light in my students eyes when they get it. I want everyone o ... read more

I tutor test-taking tactics on reading comprehension and writings for the SAT and other standardized tests. I specialize in decoding the reading passages so that the student only has to choose between two multiple choice questions rather than among five, which can take up a lot of time and panicking the student. With "Philip's Principles" the student becomes more confident fairly quickly. As for the History, usually I tell stories that fill in the blanks when the student picks wrong choices on multiple choice questions. I explain the background so we can figure out why one was right and why one was wrong.
I earned 36 graduate credits in history at NYU. I am an English/Social Studies Test Prep Teacher with "excellent" record helping achieve higher test scores and with a five-star rating for tutoring history primarily. My most recent Teaching experience includes an 11th Grader ... read more

I like to work with students with two SAT books like the Princeton Review and Barrons. While the student is answering from one, I go over his or her answers from the other. I will interrupt him or her with why he or she missed answers. "Beware of negative connotations or absolutes." "The author is perfect or near perfect, looking down from his or her ivory tower. Just about anything that shows imperfection in the author is probably wrong".
I have experience tutoring English and History, especially for standardized tests. I had a hand in helping get two young ladies into Phillips Exeter Academy, hav ing tutored them for the SSAT and prepping them for interviews.ther of my last year's SSAT students received a $41,000 scholarship to another prestigeous boarding school.
