Olivia

Certified Tutor

One of my greatest joys is to help a student who needs to conquer their academic struggles. I have had those rough days and know how much of a stress-reliever a tutor can be. Years of honors courses have prepared me to be the one to relieve that academic stress for you. During the 2016-17 school year, I tutored a middle school student in math. When I met her, she was failing. By the end of our time together, she improved to a B, and was way more confident in the subject matter. I also provided homework help for elementary students in math, science, and English for two years. In 2018, I worked as an Academic Specialist with Parker Academics, LLC as an elementary tutor in math and ELA New York common core, as well as a homework help provider. Later that year, I served as a private high school English tutor and a middle school math tutor. With both students, we worked on overall comprehension and retention so they could remember to apply what we had worked on together when they completed independent work.

In addition, I have loved writing since I was in grade school and would love the opportunity to help you increase the quality of your writing. I have taken and received A's in two college-level writing courses, as well as receiving a 5 on my AP English Literature and Composition exam and a 4 on AP English Language and Composition. I was also on the program committee for NYU's College Writing Symposium through their Writing department. My years of experience as a tutor, as well as the rigorous coursework that I take at NYU, have prepared me to be the perfect tutor for your child. I take a personal approach to tutoring and like to get to know my students and their likes and dislikes so I can make the lessons as practical and engaging as possible.
