Award-Winning Economics Tutors in Fairfield, CT

...more 5ks and 10ks than I can count, but the validation of completing a long race is nothing like the satisfying moment of writing "Q.E.D." on a difficult proof.

I love to read and to discuss what I've read, and I heartily appreciate a good philosophical argument. Extracurricularly, I write musicals,...

I believe that one of the biggest flaws in education is the lack of intimacy between teachers and their pupils. Instead of teaching students en masse, a more optimal approach is to make each lesson fit for the particular student. I have carried out this philosophy while tutoring in the past and I intend to continue doing so in the present and in the future.... The exact approach to responding to difficulty learning varies based on...

...with. This is something I struggled with throughout my academic career, and only through years of practice was I able to figure out new tricks and methods for teaching myself new material. I want to save this time and effort for all my students so that they can get to learning.

...a senior at NYU, and part of the Stern/Tisch dual degree program, getting a BS in Business and a BFA in Film and Television. I've been tutoring since my sophomore year, including over Zoom for the past year. My main focus is test prep, where I focus on "gamification."

...spent the past 20 years tutoring SAT and ACT, and 12 years tutoring GRE and GMAT. Over that time I've worked with over 2,000 students in one-on-one, small group, classroom, and lecture hall settings.

As a graduate of Columbia (SIPA) and NYU (CAS) with a Masters and Bachelors, respectively, I excelled in the finance and economics-oriented subjects, political science/government and history-oriented, yet Art history was of much interest, and minored in English literature otherwise. Lastly, while in undergrad I also worked at Berlitz on ESL teaching for a summer session. So, I hope to assist you well.

Most importantly, I believe I understand how to help, motivate, and communicate what I have learned to students and can therefore contribute to enhancing the prospects of young people.

I'm a retired professor who taught statistics for many years. To be a good citizen these days, you have to know a little statistics, because many people will try to convince you of many things with statistics, and you need to be able to separate the truth from the lies.... I want you to understand how statistics works and what the logic behind it is. If you understand that, then it will be easy to learn...

I love traveling, dancing, and reading. But, what I am most passionate about, is learning.... Each one; teach one.... Introductions. Then, find out what the student knows and what the student needs help with.... By asking the student to explain how they get to their answers.

...was the oldest and I always the first to do something so I'd have to mentor those before me. I just find the best part about tutoring is when a student just gets it. When it finally all clicks. My philosophy is that I don't give up on students because I know all of them that come to me have the potential to succeed they just need a helping hand to lead them. Not everyone...
