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.

Catherine

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.

Creative Writing Tutor • +18 Subjects

I love English, and good writing. Since I like working one-or-one or with a small group, tutoring is a great way for me to help young people communicate more effectively in writing. As a social scientist, I also like to talking about statistics and social science. I like to teach by example and ask lots of questions so students can discover answers themselves. When not working, I like to watch movies, exercise, and write science fiction.

Maria

ACT Prep Tutor • +15 Subjects

I received my Bachelor of Science degree in Biochemistry from Denison University. I am currently pursuing an M.D. at Case Western Reserve University. I've been a college-level teaching assistant for both introductory biology and general chemistry. Besides chemistry, I really enjoy tutoring for test prep (ACT and MCAT) because I view these types of tests to be a collection of puzzles to solve. It's a lot of fun helping students to figure out the logic behind these puzzles and apply it broadly, and it's incredibly rewarding to see this integration of knowledge translate to a high score. When working with students, I like to challenge them to identify the purpose of the problem or question and what underlying reasoning can be applied broadly in future questions. In doing so, students gain more long-term usable skills and the ability to think independently.

ACT Prep Tutor • +25 Subjects

I am a current undergraduate student at Columbia University in New York City, pursuing a Bachelors of Arts in History and Economics. These are two of the subjects that I enjoy tutoring the most, but I also have a penchant for tutoring and learning about math and literature. I am passionate about tutoring because I benefited from the personalized guidance of great tutors in my past and I really enjoy seeing students push themselves and develop an appreciation for subject areas or even the mental exercise of test-taking thanks to tutoring. I also believe that tutoring a subject area is the greatest way to maintain and develop understanding of its material for both the student and the tutor. I was an active tutor in high school in mathematics and history and as I take more classes in college, I look forward to tutoring students in those in which I understood the material really well. In my spare time, I enjoy reading about history, camping, biking, and traveling when I can (or exploring the incredible city of New York)!

Frequently Asked Questions

Students typically struggle most with stoichiometry, equilibrium concepts, and thermodynamics—topics that require both conceptual understanding and problem-solving skills. Mole calculations, limiting reactants, and Le Chatelier's Principle often trip up students because they demand multi-step reasoning. Additionally, understanding electron configuration, bonding types, and how they relate to molecular properties can be abstract for many learners. A tutor can break these concepts into manageable pieces and connect them to real-world applications, making them less intimidating.

The Chemistry REGENTS includes questions about lab safety, experimental design, data analysis, and common procedures like titrations and gas collection—so lab experience is essential. Many students struggle because they haven't had enough hands-on practice or don't understand how to interpret lab data and draw conclusions. A tutor can walk you through typical lab scenarios, explain what to expect in questions about experimental error and precision, and help you practice analyzing graphs and tables from real experiments.

You'll need to be comfortable with dimensional analysis (converting between units), solving algebraic equations, using scientific notation, and interpreting graphs and data tables. Many Chemistry REGENTS questions test whether you can set up and solve stoichiometry problems, calculate molarity, or work with the ideal gas law—all of which require solid math fundamentals. If math isn't your strength, a tutor can help you practice these calculations repeatedly until they become automatic, so you can focus on the chemistry concepts rather than getting stuck on the math.

The reference table is your friend—it includes the periodic table, solubility rules, common equations, and constants you'll need. However, many students waste time searching for information or don't know which equations apply to which problems. A tutor can teach you how to efficiently navigate the reference table, practice using it under timed conditions, and help you memorize the most frequently used equations and concepts so you're not constantly flipping back and forth. Knowing the table well actually saves you time during the exam.

Taking at least 3-4 full-length practice tests under timed conditions is a solid benchmark, but quality matters more than quantity. Each practice test should be followed by a detailed review where you understand why you missed questions and identify patterns in your weak areas. A tutor can help you select high-quality practice materials, administer timed tests to simulate exam conditions, review your mistakes thoroughly, and adjust your study plan based on what the tests reveal about your understanding of specific topics.

The Chemistry REGENTS has multiple sections with different question types—multiple choice, short answer, and extended response—each requiring different pacing strategies. Students often spend too much time on difficult multiple-choice questions early on and rush through the extended response section where they can earn more points. A tutor can teach you how to quickly identify easy versus hard questions, when to skip and come back, and how to allocate your time so you have enough for the longer problems. Practice under timed conditions is key to developing this skill.

Start by taking a diagnostic practice test and carefully analyzing which topics and question types you missed—not just the overall score. Common weak areas include kinetics and reaction rates, acid-base chemistry, redox reactions, and organic chemistry basics. Once you identify your specific gaps, a tutor can create a focused study plan that spends more time on those topics, uses targeted practice problems, and revisits the concepts from different angles until they click. This targeted approach is much more efficient than reviewing everything equally.

Test anxiety often stems from feeling unprepared or unsure of your knowledge, so building genuine confidence through mastery is the best antidote. A tutor can help you practice problems repeatedly until you develop automaticity, take timed practice tests to get comfortable with the exam format, and learn test-taking strategies that reduce uncertainty. Additionally, tutors can help you recognize which questions you truly don't know versus which ones you're second-guessing yourself on, and teach you to manage your time so you're not panicking about running out of time.
