Alphonse
Anatomy & Physiology Tutor • +9 Subjects
I started my journey while in high school, I took my first anatomy and physiology class and discovered that I wanted a career that would allow me to work with the human body. I was mostly interested in dentistry and orthodontics until I hurt my back in an offseason football workout. After I went to my Chiropractor I realized the importance of the structure of the spine and the function of the central nervous system. While in college I was named captain of our rugby team and enjoyed helping other learn and work together. I was a teacher assistant for an anatomy and physiology class during my time at Fairfield University. I continued my passion of helping others while at Palmer College of Chiropractic where I tutored the first quarter students in general anatomy where I aided them in understanding the anatomy with the use of cadavers. A short while later I was named the president of a chiropractic technique club called: Gonstead Technique. I plan on using my experience and knowledge to help others reach their goals and full potential.
Jordan
Adult Literacy Tutor • +38 Subjects
Currently, I am a first year student at West Chester University of Pennsylvania, working towards my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology. Although unofficial, I will most likely continue on to minor in English/Literature or Art History. My skills vary widely in terms of tutoring subjects. I am personally equipped to teach elementary school through college level courses; however, as I have a passion for literature and the arts, I specialize and do best in tutoring English, Writing, and Literature Analysis & Critique. I love to equip my students with the tools they need to succeed in and out of the classroom - there is a difference between tutoring for the test, and tutoring to expand the way a person thinks, perceives, and analyzes the world. Outside of teaching, though, I love to write and read for pleasure, as well as learn about art and art history. I also play the french horn and the trumpet!

Juan
10th Grade Math Tutor • +40 Subjects
I began working as a tutor in High School as part of the Math Club, and then continued in college in a part time position, where I helped students in College Algebra, Statistics, Calculus and Programming. After college I moved to Spain where I gave private test prep lessons to high school students and also helped friends prepare for their college entrance exams. By using my broad background in these subjects I can help students see concepts in different ways, and by enthusiastically approaching problems I can help increase the student’s interest.When I am not working or studying for Actuarial Exams, I play guitar, exercise and write computer programs.

Amanda
American Literature Tutor • +15 Subjects
I am a third-year law student at the Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law and will be working as at attorney at a large corporate law firm when I graduate. I completed my undergraduate degree at NYU, double majoring in journalism and dramatic literature.I am passionate about education, specifically reading and writing, and believe my enthusiasm, organization and professionalism would make me an asset to your company.In law school, I was selected by a professor to be a teaching assistant for a Legal Writing course for 16 first-year students. I attended weekly classes, often providing input and co-teaching several classes. I also held weekly office hours, where I met with students individually and in small groups to help with their assignments, including working on their writing style and structure. In addition, I reviewed and edited students’ assignments, providing individualized feedback and advice.As a Constitutional Law teaching assistant, I co-taught weekly review sessions of over 75 students, where I explained and reviewed course material. I reviewed practice problems, coached students on proper study and reading strategies, and answered questions. I quickly learned best practices to keep all of the students engaged and focused, encouraging student participation and leading class discussions.I also volunteered with iMentor, providing one-on-one support to two high school freshman through online communication and in-person meetings. I provided structure and motivation, helping my mentees plan their future college and career goals, as well as study strategies and day-to-day organization. Working closely with my two mentees, I determined their individual communication and learning styles, as well as their strengths and weaknesses, and used this knowledge to tailor our sessions to best meet their needs.Finally, in high school, I tutored elementary school students in math and reading comprehension, helping with homework and assignment organization. I understand that every student has different academic, emotional and social needs and I am confident in my ability to help each student reach his or her potential.

Logan
ACT English Tutor • +15 Subjects
My goal as a tutor is not just to help students learn new material, but also to help them understand how to learn, study, and teach themselves things that they are having trouble 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. I received a BA in Economics from Northwestern University, and just graduated in June 2016, and will tutor for Economics, the SAT, and the ACT. My interests outside of schooling include basketball and psychology!

Frequently Asked Questions
Students typically struggle most with supply and demand curve analysis—especially understanding how shifts versus movements along curves affect equilibrium price and quantity. Elasticity concepts also challenge many students because they require both mathematical calculation and intuitive understanding of consumer behavior. Additionally, macroeconomic topics like aggregate demand and supply, monetary policy mechanisms, and the relationship between inflation and unemployment often feel abstract without concrete real-world connections. A tutor can break these down using specific examples (like how gas price changes affect driving habits) to make the theory stick.
The AP Economics exam consists of two sections: a 60-minute multiple-choice section (50 questions) and a 50-minute free-response section (3 questions). The multiple-choice tests breadth across all units, while the free-response questions often require you to draw graphs, identify economic concepts, and explain cause-and-effect relationships. Many students underestimate the time pressure—you have roughly 72 seconds per multiple-choice question. A tutor can help you develop a pacing strategy, practice reading questions carefully to avoid traps, and master graph interpretation, which appears heavily on both sections.
Graphs in AP Economics require you to understand not just how to draw them, but what they represent economically—the difference between a movement along a demand curve versus a shift of the entire curve, or how to read a Phillips Curve to understand inflation-unemployment tradeoffs. Students often memorize graph shapes without grasping the underlying logic, leading to mistakes when questions ask them to predict what happens when conditions change. Tutors help by teaching you to think through the economic reasoning first ("What causes demand to increase?"), then translate that into the correct graph movement, rather than just pattern-matching.
Free-response questions typically ask you to identify an economic concept, draw a relevant graph, and explain the impact—often in 3-4 parts. The key is reading the question carefully to identify exactly what's being asked (e.g., "explain how this policy affects the money supply" versus "explain how this policy affects interest rates"). Start by labeling your graph clearly and identifying the relevant curves, then write concise explanations linking the graph to economic principles. Tutors can walk you through practice FRQs, showing you how to earn all available points by addressing each part explicitly and avoiding common errors like unlabeled axes or incomplete explanations.
AP Economics is typically taught in two halves: Microeconomics (Units 1-3: supply/demand, elasticity, production costs, market structures) and Macroeconomics (Units 4-6: national income, inflation/unemployment, monetary/fiscal policy). Early mastery of micro fundamentals—especially supply and demand—is critical because macro concepts build on that foundation. Many students rush through micro and struggle later when they can't connect macro policy changes back to individual market behavior. A tutor can help you identify gaps early (especially in elasticity or cost analysis) and reinforce those before moving to macro, ensuring you don't fall behind when concepts get more abstract.
Score improvement depends on your starting point and consistency. Students who begin with shaky fundamentals (struggling with basic supply/demand or cost concepts) often see the biggest gains—sometimes 2-3 points on the 5-point scale—by solidifying those foundations and practicing FRQs. Students already scoring 3s can reach 4s or 5s by mastering test-taking strategy, learning to avoid careless errors on multiple-choice, and earning full points on free-response through precise explanations. Realistic timelines: expect 4-6 weeks of consistent tutoring (1-2 sessions weekly) to address major gaps, with continued improvement through practice tests and targeted review closer to exam day.
AP Economics anxiety often stems from feeling unprepared for the graph section or worrying you'll forget key concepts under pressure. The best antidote is familiarity—practicing with actual AP exam questions and timed conditions builds confidence because you've seen the question formats before. Tutors can help by doing timed practice tests with you, reviewing what went wrong without judgment, and teaching you to manage pacing (e.g., skip a tough multiple-choice question and return to it rather than panicking). They can also help you develop a pre-exam routine and teach you strategies like reading questions twice to catch what's actually being asked, which reduces careless errors that fuel anxiety.
A strong AP Economics tutor understands not just the content, but how students typically misunderstand it—knowing that many students confuse "shortage" with "low price" or struggle to connect monetary policy to real-world outcomes. They should be able to draw and explain graphs clearly, walk you through practice FRQs showing exactly how to earn points, and help you develop a personal study strategy based on your weak areas. They should also be familiar with the specific exam format and question types, able to teach test-taking strategies like process of elimination for multiple-choice, and patient enough to explain abstract concepts like opportunity cost or comparative advantage through concrete examples until they click.
