Christopher
Algebra Tutor • +7 Subjects
I am a current student at Rutgers University on track to major in Electrical Engineering. I tutor a wide range of math from elementary level up to high school and college. This range includes algebra, trigonometry, pre-calc and calculus. I have had many experiences through my high school and outside work at kumon learning centers in tutoring. I love helping students not only learn the material themselves, but being able to know it well enough that they can teach it themselves, achieving my goal of getting students to work autonomously without required help. The many interests I have outside of the classroom includes playing basketball, running, video games, and computer programming.

Amy
College English Tutor • +13 Subjects
I have a B.A. in French and a diploma in Business French from the Chamber of Commerce and Industry in Paris. I also speak Greek, Italian, and Spanish.I have worked as a private tutor in the area of foreign languages, essay writing, and a variety of other subjects for more than a decade. In that time, I have witnessed the difficulties many students have when learning something that seems unfamiliar, uninteresting, or just makes no sense. Seeing this, I believe it is my responsibility to be a positive influence by ensuring that all my students do well and understand the material. For example, with French, I always give them a brief English grammar lesson beforehand which helps tremendously boost their confidence level as the foreign gradually becomes familiar.I am truly excited about working with students and encouraging them to excel. There is nothing more gratifying than seeing a student conquer his/her fears and expressing him/herself in a way he/she never thought possible. I work with each student’s specific needs in a patient yet firm manner. I also exhibit determination, empathy, and humor to make learning an enjoyable and rewarding experience. Most importantly, I am personable and understanding and believe that brings me closer to helping my students.In my free time, I love cooking Mediterranean/Greek cuisine and would love to open a restaurant one day. I also write poetry, short stories, etc. and am currently working on my first novel. Lastly, I adore knitting and crocheting cute, fashionable clothes and accessories for girls.
Gabrielle
AP Biology Tutor • +25 Subjects
I am recent graduate of Binghamton University, with a Bachelor of Sciences in Biology. I am deeply committed to the value of education, and believe that learning is a gift and an opportunity for growth that should be available to everyone. For this reason, I am passionate about tutoring and helping students, so that everyone is able to not only do well in school, but to fall in love with learning in the process. Anyone can enrich themselves through learning. This is the foundation of my teaching philosophy: in addition to emphasizing results and academic achievement, I believe it is integral to find an individual approach to each student and to focus first and foremost on teaching students to study in a way that is effective and engaging. I tutor elementary, middle, and high school students in all subjects. In my free time, I like to go running, practice dance, learn new languages, and play ping-pong.

Anna
ACT Writing Tutor • +27 Subjects
I honestly love tutoring. While working in finance and publishing over the past decade, I have independently tutored students from many premiere NY and NJ high schools and universities. I continued tutoring even after joining a major private equity firm because of how much I enjoy working one-on-one with students. Breaking down seemingly complex subjects is one of my favorite pastimes--it's part of the reason I also enjoy writing about arcane financial topics like quanto spreads on sovereign CDS. I've also developed a newfound respect for the challenges students face when undergoing years of testing after developing my own study plan to pass the first two CFA exams (I'm taking the third exam in June). This experience has shaped how I work with students to tackle test-taking anxiety and master difficult material quickly.I have both a BA and MA in English from New York University.

Algebra Tutor • +15 Subjects
Hello! My name is Catherine Raj and I am a second-year medical student at Ohio University Heritage College of Osteopathic Medicine. I graduated from The Ohio State University with a Bachelor's of Science in Neuroscience in 2022. Since 2015, I have tutored children from ages 3-16 in areas of math and reading, as well as their school curriculum. Apart from tutoring here, I have worked for the Kumon Learning Center as a teaching instructor for 5 years. While I am certified to tutor a broad range of subjects, I have years of experience with tutoring young children in math and reading, such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, phonics, reading comprehension, and much more. I connect with elementary and middle school students very well, as I believe in understanding children in order to give them a fulfilling tutoring experience. I also very much enjoy tutoring pre-algebra and algebra as those are my favorite math subjects, as well as my best! My students and I have always had a deeper level of understanding beyond the books and I pride my style of teaching on that aspect.

Frequently Asked Questions
Both are essential, but they work together differently than many students expect. In 7th grade, you're building foundational grammar (present tense conjugations, ser vs. estar, basic sentence structure) that makes conversation possible. However, the best approach balances explicit grammar instruction with frequent speaking practice—so you learn conjugation patterns, then immediately use them in real dialogues. A tutor can target your specific gaps: if verb conjugation is shaky, they'll drill patterns with context; if you understand grammar but freeze when speaking, they'll focus on conversation confidence and natural response patterns.
Verb conjugation is hard because it requires memorizing multiple patterns (regular -ar, -er, -ir verbs plus irregular verbs like ir, ser, tener) while also understanding when to use each form. Most classrooms teach conjugation charts, but 7th graders struggle to apply them in real speech because the patterns aren't internalized. A tutor uses spaced repetition and contextual practice—conjugating verbs within sentences and dialogues you actually care about, not isolated charts. This builds automatic recall so you can conjugate naturally in conversation rather than pausing to think through rules.
In a classroom of 20-30 students, you might speak Spanish for a few minutes per class; with a tutor, you speak for the entire session. More importantly, a tutor adapts in real-time to your level and pace—if you mispronounce a word, they correct it immediately; if you're stuck, they prompt you without judgment. You also get personalized conversation topics (your interests, hobbies, school life) rather than generic textbook dialogues, which makes speaking feel relevant and helps vocabulary stick. This consistent, low-pressure speaking practice is where pronunciation, fluency, and confidence actually develop.
Cramming vocabulary lists doesn't stick—research on learning shows spaced repetition and retrieval practice work much better. Effective vocabulary retention means encountering words multiple times over days and weeks, in different contexts (reading, writing, speaking), and actively retrieving them from memory. A tutor builds vocabulary retention by introducing new words in conversation, having you use them in sentences, then revisiting them in future sessions in different contexts. They also help you connect new words to words you already know (cognates, word families) so they integrate into your existing knowledge rather than sitting in isolation.
Pronunciation matters more than many students realize—mispronouncing vowels or rolling your r's incorrectly can change word meaning, and poor pronunciation makes you harder to understand in real conversation. In 7th grade, focus should be on consistent vowel sounds (a, e, i, o, u never change), clear consonants, and word stress rather than perfect native-like accent. A tutor can model correct pronunciation, listen to you speak, and give specific feedback on problem sounds—whether that's the Spanish 'r', the 'j' sound, or stress patterns. Regular speaking practice with immediate correction helps you build accurate pronunciation habits before they become ingrained.
Learning Spanish without cultural context makes it feel abstract and disconnected. A tutor can weave in relevant cultural elements—why certain greetings matter in different Spanish-speaking countries, regional differences in vocabulary, cultural holidays and traditions, or current events in Spanish-speaking communities. This context helps vocabulary and grammar stick better (you remember "tú" vs "usted" when you understand the social relationship it reflects) and makes learning feel purposeful. It also builds genuine interest in the language beyond test scores, which naturally improves motivation and retention.
By 7th grade, you should move beyond translating word-by-word to understanding main ideas, inferring meaning from context, and recognizing text structure. These skills include identifying cognates to unlock unfamiliar words, understanding verb tense to follow timeline, and grasping tone and intent. A tutor builds these skills by having you read age-appropriate texts (short stories, articles, emails) and ask comprehension questions that push you to think in Spanish rather than translate. They also teach you strategies like skimming for key words, using surrounding sentences to guess unknown words, and recognizing patterns in how Spanish structures meaning—all skills that make reading faster and more natural.
Writing in Spanish requires combining grammar knowledge (correct conjugation, adjective agreement, ser vs. estar) with expressing your own ideas—which is harder than just filling in grammar worksheets. A tutor helps by having you write short pieces (messages, journal entries, descriptions) and then providing targeted feedback on patterns you're missing, not just marking every error. They teach you to self-edit for common mistakes (like forgetting to conjugate verbs or match adjective gender) and help you develop a personal voice in Spanish. Regular writing practice with feedback builds confidence and helps grammar rules become automatic so you can focus on communicating your ideas.
