...me and helped me a lot in being a successful tutor. In my opinion, the most important part of tutoring is understanding each individual's needs and learning methods. Everyone is different and to be a successful tutor, you cannot apply the same teaching methods to every student. Understanding how quickly students learn, what types of strengths they have, and their motivations for receiving tutoring is key to helping a student achieve their academic goals. My...

...that I helped them achieve was so rewarding that I made it a point to return to tutoring after graduation! My tutoring style is heavily influenced by my problem-solving-oriented engineering background. In school, I learned how to break down problems, analyze each component, and then proceed step-by-step to a solution. This same approach has helped me excel as a tutor because breaking down problems for students and guiding them as they grapple with the concepts...

John: SAT Subject Test in Mathematics Level 1 test prep instructor
I graduated from the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in NYC in 2008, the oldest English speaking acting conservatory in the world. I graduated Summa from University of St Thomas with a BA in English, and just wrapped up a MS in Data Science from Northwestern. I'm a huge Red Sox fan and love watching detective shows when I have free time.... Positivity. Always. I believe that if a student is given positive tools and is allowed to understand the material rather than be lectured at, they're more likely to do well in the future.

Providing guidance in science and mathematics to help students understand the real-world applications of scientific and mathematical concepts in their everyday lives. I have a B.S.E. in Aerospace Engineering and a B.S. in Sustainable Energy Materials and Technology, and I am pursuing my M.S. in Aerospace Engineering.... Learning science and mathematics through real-world applications that show how concepts can actually be used to solve real problems.... I'd ask them about topics they feel uncomfortable with, as well as understanding how they learn so I can tailor my sessions to their style.

In particular, I love to bring college-level math concepts to students in a way anyone can understand, which often demonstrates WHY the math they're doing matters. It also shows that math can be just plain cool, which I don't think our curricula prioritize enough. Besides teaching, I enjoy practicing parkour and tricking (acrobatic martial arts), playing video games, and...

...Outside of work (where I am a management consultant), I play hockey and piano. Since high school, I have helped fellow students with academics. At school, I was also a tutor through Penn's Tutoring Center. I think what makes me a successful tutor is the ability to not only understand the material but also the perspective of the tutee. This helps me convey necessary information in the best way possible for that particular student.

Hi! I am an engineering student at Northeastern University who loves helping people out with all subjects. Standardized tests are just a game against the clock that we can improve in so many ways. ... I have two philosophies. 1. Practice makes perfect. 2. There's an angle to everything. I think there is always more than one way to approach a problem, and typically the test tries to make you think you need to take the harder approach.

Everyone has the capacity to gain mastery over a subject. I just have to continue finding the right way to convey it.... Asking questions and gauging the student's ability by the answers that they give. Then, as a tutor, I go from that baseline and work upwards.

I am a passionate science educator with experience teaching high school students, college students, and adults. I like to teach by building frameworks of understanding with my students, and make sure to treat each case individually.... Every student is different. Instead of covering everything taught in the class, I prefer to focus on problem areas.... I believe that learning is a personal process, and the role of a good teacher or tutor is to facilitate and guide the learning experience. Because of this philosophy, I like to push students to grasp concepts as much as possible, instead of focusing on memorization.
