...Zoe Pyne, an undergraduate student at Barnard College from Brooklyn, New York. Having always had a love of school and learning, I initially began tutoring as a way to gain community service hours but then realized that it meant more to me. As both a general homework and specialized reading tutor (trained in administering DIBELS and differentiated reading instruction), I have a wide array of experience with different subjects. I can't wait to get involved...

Hi, My name is Edwina Koch and I am primarily a French tutor. I have lived in France for four years and majored in French in college! I love the language, the culture, and the people and love teaching others about all things French! Fun Fact: On e of my first jobs was working at Build-a-Bear Workshop!

...more than one language since I first started to talk. Very young I already knew what I wanted to do as a professional and that was being a language teacher. Languages are my passion and my goal is to transfer that passion to my students through lessons that will allow them not only to speak the language better but also to know much more about that language's culture. Let me help you expand your world!

...the nun costumes. (Thanks, Mom!) As a high school sophomore, I was asked to teach the freshman German class because I had learned so much of the language on my own, with the help of an older sister who was studying it in college. (Thanks, Sis!) As a graduate student, my advisor asked me to teach a year-long course in electronic music, a subject that at the time I didnt know well at all. (Thanks,...

...professor at a university called Comrat State University. The students in my classes were very diverse in terms of ages and languages. They ranged from high school students to the mayor of the city of Comrat and included Russian, Romanian, Turkish, Ukrainian, Bulgarian and Gagauz speakers. I also taught English classes to kids on Saturdays at a local gym and at a local language school. In addition, I taught an English for Business class to...

...from weekly 1-1 sessions with multiple students to giving a review session to a large lecture class. Outside of academics, for all four years I have tutored middle/high school students in music in a 1-1 setting. This was through one of Yale's Dwight Hall service/outreach program. What interested me in tutoring music was the same sense of fulfillment, being able to watch someone progress overtime and see their face as they learn something new and...

...I work with students to identify the subject areas they need to improve on and the testing strategies that work best for them individually. My liberal arts education exposed me to a great diversity of different learners, and helped me understand the many different learning styles that students have. I have consequently developed an adaptable teaching style to fit this variety of students’ needs. My personal favorite teaching experience was my time as a guide...

...high school English teacher I know that many students struggle with learning but all students can achieve success. My teaching philosophy is to empower students to be the agents of their own learning. In order to learn efficiently and effectively, tutors need to embrace learning styles. From concepts to creation, students must learn how to ask significant questions and keep asking them. For a tutor, this means modeling good questions and expecting the best from...

...in a French-speaking country, where I received my first bachelor's and master's degrees in Law. In 2011, I moved to the United States to pursue my studies. I am a graduate of John Jay College of Criminal Justice in New York City, where I earned my second bachelor's and master's degrees with a focus on public administration. I am fluent in French and English. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most...

...my students are going through, while my work as a teacher and tutor gives me a fresh perspective on my writing. I always stress that writing is rewriting. One of my happiest moments as a teacher was when one of my students won the UC Berkeley English Department's annual Essay Prize last spring with a paper I helped her to revise. In terms of test prep, I aim for a balance between tricks (outsmarting the...

...themselves, I believe it is just as important for students to learn how to think calmly and confidently about these tests, so that they can help to serve students' broader educational goals. In addition to tutoring students - and being one myself - I enjoy keeping fit by boxing at the gym, reading mostly non-fiction, and rooting for favorite NCAA teams. I have had the opportunity to travel extensively abroad, and always enjoy learning about...

...educated in Boston, and living in New York City, my heart belongs to Paris. I majored in French Literature and cross-cultural visual arts, and spent my junior year abroad in the City of Lights. I lived with a host family, attended La Sorbonne and wrote for a French fashion publication. It was an entirely immersive experience, and I got to the point where I was not only fluent, but thinking and dreaming in French. The...

...French when I turned eleven. My greatest strength as a tutor is connecting academic subject matter to life outside of the classroom. When I was a student, I found that my French coursework became much more engaging when I understood its use and broader context within the Francophone world. This is the type of knowledge that I plan to share with my own students. What they are studying can actually be exciting and useful. I...

...I understand the challenges of feeling behind in a topic and the embarrassment of struggling in class. My goal is to build students' confidence and encourage them to contribute during classroom discussions. When students grasp complex subjects, their attitude toward learning transforms, and they gain a deeper, more meaningful connection to the material. I aim to teach foundational concepts in a way that students can apply them to real-world scenarios. Throughout my educational journey, I...
