I have become very involved in youth development and academic success. I also am a motivational speaker for high schools and colleges. I believe that any student can achieve their dreams and goals. One bad habit that I share with people is that I am stubborn and this describes the desire to never give up. I want students not only to succeed academically, but also in life. I will do everything in my power to provide students everything that will help them reach their desires and goals. I have substitute taught theatre and history classes. I am an extremely creative person and will always offer a new way to look at a problem or situation.
As a high school student and college graduate, I have lived through the education process and hope to share that experience with students. I hold a Bachelors of Arts in History and a minor in Women`s Studies. I graduated from Wilkes University which ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

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 and an ability in the creative arts through coursework at the collegiate level and would be able to teach those as well.
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 ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a fourth generation college graduate, I was driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education to continue my family tradition of graduating with honors. I have earned a 5 year B. Arch from Pratt Institute. Tutoring found me in college, when my fellow students asked me to tutor them in structural courses. My classmates did not have an adequate structural foundation, whereas I had graduated from a very rigorous high school with advanced studies in math and physics. My students often told me that I have a gift for demystifying complex ideas. My study group proved so successful that Pratt offered me a tutoring position. I have taught and tutored math and science-related courses for graduate and undergraduate students ever since. I worked significant amount with Adobe photoshop, and I can tutor Photoshop.
In my 10 years of tutoring experience, I worked with more than 100 stu ... read more

More About This Tutor...

The thinking and learning processes were always intriguing to me. I am very inquisitive and cannot stop until I understand how things tick. However, patience and comprehension are certainly big parts of me as a person. This is why tutoring is a very fulfilling experience. Being part of how young and/or elder people improve not only their analytical and cognitive skills, but also their self esteem is so satisfying. The latter, is most likely what will help them to face and deal with future academic, and personal problems. Besides, tutoring not only helps people individually, but eventually, it helps to improve society as a whole.
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 cle ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love learning while teaching. That is, the discovery process of finding out what motivates individual students to achieve, finding methods to feed positive energy to the classroom dynamics, learning what makes students feel good about reaching for a higher level of thought; these are the things that excite me when teaching. In my high school teaching, I used an interdisciplinary approach to mathematics -- e.g. mixing history, spelling, real-life examples, web research, etc. I also try to make it fun and challenging at the same time -- speed drills to improve arithmetic, fractions skills, recall of important math rules, math Jeopardy. The important thing to remember is that the differences among students requires an individual assessment and approach at any level for success.
Upon graduation from NYU's Courant Institute of Mathematics, I taught for one year as an Adjunct Lecturer ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I am to begin my second graduate studies in Environmental Science and Policy at the School of International and Public Affairs (SIPA), Columbia University, New York City on June 1, 2010. I have earned two additional degrees: a bachelor degree in Civil Engineering and a master’s degree in Project Management. The degree in civil engineering has enabled me to gain an understanding in many areas of math and science. In addition, the degree in project management has also helped me learned extensive grammatical skills due to writing term papers, memos, and project reports in many various areas of my study. I have strong analytical and communication skills that make me a great teacher.
I have great passion for teaching and working with all children to achieve their educational goals. As a teacher, I believe that all children can learn, but each in a different way. I am available to wor ... read more
