A Little Bit About Me...

Currently a college senior, will be graduating with a B.A. in English in three weeks. Scored a 5 on 5 out of 7 AP classes taken in high school, 2030 on SAT. Currently tutoring one student in reading comprehension and one in biology, both are improving. Willing to work with all sorts of learners, flexible schedule.
I prefer to allow the student to attempt to find answers on their own first, and only supply help when a student is clearly struggling to find the answer. I work through each lesson or homework assignment step-by-step with the student, making sure they understand each part before moving on.

Read More About William F...

In tutoring any of the traditional subjects (Latin, Greek, formal/informal logic, rhetoric, critical thinking), I emphasize the objectives common to them all: (1) acquisition of context-specific vocabulary, (2) a feel for the flexibility and polysemy of a given word's lexical-semantic meaning, (3) a comprehension of the text's thematic, stylistic, and evaluative undertones and progression. The three, taken together, require us to formulate arguments by sifting through material, with an eye to analysis on how texts are crafted for presentation in terms of form and content. The result is an understanding on how these three are essential for reading, arguing, and, ultimately, thinking critically. Subjects Tutored: Besides the aforementioned subjects, I also tutor for calculus and chemistry.
I earned my B.A. from Tulane University magna cum laude in classical languages and philosop ... read more

A highly compassionate and committed educator.

Ever since I began working in NYC public schools seven years ago as a licensed Paraprofessional, I became passionate about teaching while continuously learning and developing my methods of instruction working with multi-culturally diverse students with various needs.

A Little Bit About Me...

As an educator with over ten years of experience, I have a wealth of knowledge and experience that will help children to excel. I attended Trinity School in New York City, where I had the opportunity to receive a high-quality education. From there, I matriculated to Columbia University. At Columbia, the core curriculum and the requirements for my major consisted primarily of English and history courses. One of the main reasons that I decided to attend Columbia is because of the focus on the core. I wanted to receive a well-rounded liberal arts education. When I became a teacher, my passion for English and literature enabled me to instill a passion for reading in my students, who had previously struggled with reading. It gives me great joy to teach students and to help them become better learners. Since graduating from Columbia in 2005, I have received dual certification in Childhood E ... read more
