Douglas S. - Bridgeport, CT 06604 (17.7 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $40.00/hr.
My engaging style is evident at the start of each tutoring session. I show my students by personal example how to persevere and succeed in academics and in life. For the past 15 years, I have been a full-time tutor for students in grades 1-12. I am a graduate of Wesleyan University with an emphasis in physical and cultural anthropology and an ongoing fascination with the study of prehistoric human societies. Presently, I use my diverse experience as a tutor, copy editor and radio news broadcaster to make each tutoring session truly memorable for my students. My students quickly see how much I care for their progress and success. I consider tutoring to be much more than just a profession, but a way to provide others with needed assistance. It is this goal, when met, which provides me with my greatest satisfaction as an educator.

Natalie L. - stamford, CT 06901 (27.6 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $72.50/hr.
I am very patient and I make sure the student thoroughly understands a topic before moving on. I motivate the student to succeed and teach good study skills and test taking skills. Normally, I use the student's textbooks and classroom materials during our lessons. For standardized tests, I use prep books, such as Princeton Review. Students do best when they are encouraged and receive positive feedback. My students are extremely satisfied after our lessons, and I receive wonderful feedback from children and adults I tutor. For the past 10 years I have been tutoring, working with students and helping them in various subjects. I graduated Magna Cum Laude from Binghamton University, SUNY in 2005. 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. Also, I prepare students for SATs/ACT, and my la

PSAT math and general test taking strategies
Results don't lie. Please take a look at the reviews left for me here -- https://www.wyzant.com/Tutors/mathzap -- to see if I would be a good fit for you. You can message me here or there to confirm that is really me. I'd love to hear from you! My goal is to connect with the student at THEIR level. We start by going over the basics of problem solving and work from there to foster independent thinking. I use varied approaches when the student is "stuck." I am friendly, patient and very persistent. I can assist with classwork and homework, and will tailor tutoring sessions to your needs. I will assign supplemental work to advance in the subject area as needed or desired. My ultimate goal - to work myself out of a job! I am an established, experienced math and chemistry tutor and have taught SAT math test prep for a private company. I cover el

Neetu P. - Berlin, CT 06037 (40 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $40.00/hr.
Hi! I am a certified math teacher with 20 years of experience working with students from elementary school through college. I have a Master's degree in Mathematics and a Master's degree in Education also. I am very comfortable teaching all different age groups and enjoy working with students one-on-one. One-on-one teaching helps me understand their strengths and weaknesses. I try to listen to my students' needs and evaluate that first, and then based on that I provide support, guidance, advice and encouragement to students on issues regarding their progress in education. I am very consistent and patient with my students.
Since math is very cumulative, I always like to spend some time to review the prior and old material to fill in the gaps and then teach the new material. Since July 1992, I have enjoyed carrying out my responsibilities as a math educator. I enjoy working with children w

Carolyn W - Port Jefferson Station, NY 11776 (4.5 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $52.00/hr.
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 difficult concepts. By contrast, when teaching a beginner-level 12-year-old, I used a total German language immersion approach and built on my student's love of creative writing by asking her to write her own endings to traditional German short stories. In general, I believe in a natural language acquisition approach that gives students opportunities to practice, make mistakes, and learn from them. Students have told me that they find me to be very dedicated, patient, and encouraging. 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 ta

Julio R - Port Jefferson Station, NY 11776 (4.6 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $49.00/hr.
My style is open to discussion. I like to ask questions to the student about the knowledge they have and based on that, apply my knowledge to build a strong base to be used as a core to solve more problems. I live the one on one interaction but also love the group discussion. I used to tutor an entire classroom during summer for 6 hours straight. I started around 2005 tutoring for the departments of chemistry and math in Queensborough Community College, from the basic levels in organic chemistry 2 and calculus. I earned my Associate degree in science from Queensborough Community College and finished my Bachelor Degree in Stonybrook University. At Stonybrook University also tutor chemistry and math. During the summer 2006, I had the entire department of chemistry tutoring under my guide. My experience comes from teaching my own classes and from interacting with my students.

Every child can learn is my philosophy. I love teaching and learning from my students. Together we bring a wealth of knowledge to the table and build from it. I am patient, understanding and considerate. I believe in differentiated instruction focusing on all apsects of learning styles best suited for the individual student.
