Hi! I received a BA in history from Brandeis University and an MS from Columbia in Nutrition. I love reading and studying history, but my true passion is medicine. I currently work as an EMT (Emergency Medical Technician) and am in the process of applying to medical school.I first started tutoring fellow students in high school. In college I helped fifth graders at the local public school after school with their homework. I have experience with a broad age range and I enjoy the differences in approach that each student demands. I believe that a tutor must have patience. This allows students to work at their own pace as they find the approach that works for them.In my free time I love reading historical fiction novels, watching TV (especially baseball), taking my dog to the dog park, playing basketball.

Hello, I am a bilingual Senegalese-American student at Columbia University, majoring in Architecture with a minor in Gender studies. For the past six years, I have been tutoring French to undergraduate students, and English Literature, Social Studies and Math to students grades one through eight. As a former student of the IB Program, I am familiar with IB curriculum and texts, particularly in the subjects of History, English, and French. I am a patient and diligent individual with excellent work ethic and a genuine love for teaching. My hours are flexible and I provide online tutoring as well, 7 days a week.

As a passionate educator and dedicated computer science professional, I find immense joy in helping students unlock their potential and achieve their academic goals. My journey in education began at Rutgers University, where I earned my B.S. in Computer Science with minors in Business Administration and Mathematics. Currently, I am pursuing a Master of Science in Computer Science at the Fu Foundation School of Engineering and Applied Science, Columbia University. My tutoring experience includes assisting students at Rutgers University, where I specialized in Python, Object-Oriented Programming, and Discrete Math. This role allowed me to develop tailored lesson plans, break down complex concepts into manageable steps, and adapt to various learning styles, ensuring each student could grasp and apply the material effectively. I offer tutoring in subjects such as Python, Java, HTML, CSS, SQL, and C, with a particular enthusiasm for Python and Object-Oriented Programming. These subjects fascinate me because they form the backbone of modern software development, enabling students to build robust and efficient applications. I strive to create an engaging and supportive learning environment, emphasizing practical problem-solving and critical thinking. Outside of academia, I enjoy cooking, working out, and spending quality time with friends and family. These activities provide a healthy balance to my professional life, keeping me energized and motivated. My teaching philosophy centers on patience, clarity, and encouragement. I believe in fostering a growth mindset, where challenges are viewed as opportunities to learn and improve. By instilling confidence and a love for learning, I aim to help my students succeed not only academically but also in their personal and professional lives.

Experienced professional with a demonstrated history of working across multiple industries, including the legal, business, government, education, intergovernmental organizations, and nonprofit industries. An astute multilingual professional with vast experience and leadership in solving complex legal business problems, and holds separate degrees in Political Science, Global Affairs and Human Security, Negotiation and Conflict Resolution, and Law from different prominent universities. I am a firm proponent of education, believing it to be absolutely necessary for an improved quality of life, and I try to impart this appreciation to all of my students.

I'm a recent Columbia grad majoring in economics and film who's passionate about bringing the exciting classroom experience to the online learning format. I love economics and all the math behind it as well as the visual language of film and the humanistic touch of it. I believe in expanding the students' world by teaching not only facts and theories but the implication behind them in addition to sufficient application practice. I want the students to foster intellectual curiosity as they delve into a particular subject. Born and raised in Beijing for 18 years, I can also teach Chinese and the rich culture around it. I'm also experienced in test prep and would love to help students get into their dream college during this unusual time.

I have always been passionate about helping others, and one of the best ways for me to do that is by tutoring. My main tutoring subjects include math, history, and chemistry for grades 6-12, along with SAT and ACT instruction and test taking strategies.

I have a Ph.D. from Columbia University in Mathematics Education and currently teach mathematics at Mercy College. I have tutored math since high school. I also have volunteered in this area, tutoring elementary school students in the Bronx for three school years. I enjoy tutoring all levels of mathematics from elementary level through college. At the high school and college levels, I especially enjoy teaching any level of algebra.I think of math problems as interesting puzzles and I hope to impart that sense to my students. I also believe that there is too much emphasis on speed in calculation or solution. I like to emphasize the importance of logic and understanding rather than speed or rote memorization. I have found that students who never liked math before can often become much more positive and accomplished when this approach is used.I left my career in law to become a mathematics teacher!I love yoga and practice regularly. In my spare time I like to learn about almost anything. This summer I took courses in Classical Mythology. I also like to ski, when I can.

I am a graduate student pursuing a Masters in Public Health at Columbia University's Mailman School. I completed a B.A. at Yale University in the History of Science & Medicine in May of 2011, and I am eager to work with Varsity Tutors in order to help other students achieve their academic goals.I have been tutoring at a variety of levels since I was in elementary school, and have discovered that I truly love the opportunity to help others gain a better understanding of whatever subject matter is at hand. Reading and writing are my specialty; words are something I have always found to have great power, and assisting others in expressing their thoughts in nuanced, articulate ways has become a great passion of mine. I try to find a balance between structure and creative thinking when it comes to my tutoring style, and I firmly believe that everyone is capable of achieving great things given the right environment and skill set.Often, people discover my educational history and assume that I am an academic robot: all work and no fun. I can assure you, however, that this is far from true! I am a down-to-earth, outgoing, and trustworthy person, and though I have a concrete sense of professional conduct and responsibility, I have always found that building a rapport and a friendly relationship with clients leads to infinitely more success than a purely businesslike exchange. It is my goal to provide guidance within a comfortable environment, which facilitates a much more personalized, pleasant tutoring experience.In my free time, I enjoy singing, acting, being an amateur photographer, eating amazing food, going to museums, reading as many articles on the New York Times website as possible, and spending time with my friends.

I am currently completing an MFA in Creative Writing at Columbia University, and before that I majored in English in undergrad. Since as long as I can remember reading and writing have been my principal passions, and I've been teaching, tutoring, and writing since completing college. I've taught ESL students in South Korea, and back in the US I've worked with learners of all ages from elementary school students to adults. In addition I've done some work as a freelance journalist. My teaching specialties include reading comprehension, vocabulary, essay writing, creative writing, and textual analysis.

I am a junior at Columbia University double majoring in Financial Engineering and Computer Science. Since high school, I have extensively tutored French students for standardized testing (SAT/ACT). This helped me bridge the obvious language gap whilst breaking down the tests into their fundamentals to better grasp the strategy behind them. I firmly believe in learning-by-doing which is why I encourage all my students to try first before revising their methods and understanding of the subjects. I am fluent in French, Arabic, Hebrew, and English which I believe helps me communicate the very essence of the subject as opposed to a numbered list of tasks which might not help all types of students. In my spare time, I enjoy catching up on the Financial Times, trying my hand at new languages and designing clothing.

I am a graduate of Columbia University. In 2009, I received my Bachelor of Arts in English having also concentrated in 20th Century art history and Critical Theory, the History of Philosophy, and Buddhist Studies. I tutor literature, grammar, phonetics, essay writing, philosophy, art history, Spanish, and public speaking. I believe that education should foster the mutual development of student and teacher and that the best tools to cultivate such radical, coterminous growth are patience, attention to difference, and respect for detail. Since graduating, when I am not tutoring I am working on experimental audio-visual collage and playing music in the electronic duo, Sky Prison.

I graduated with a degree in Biology from Columbia University, where I honed my passion for teaching as a peer tutor for organic chemistry and as a teaching assistant for multiple biology courses. Since graduating in 2015, I have worked in a dermatology clinic as a medical assistant, and am delighted to be starting medical school in the fall.While I tutor a broad range of topics, I am most passionate about science and reading/writing. While these seem like two entirely different subjects, I like to think of it this way - science is about understanding the world around us, which we access and make beautiful through literature. I have always enjoyed making these subjects as fun for my students to learn as they are for me to teach. My goal in teaching is to foster in my students a fiery curiosity, and enthusiasm for learning and critical thinking, and confidence in asking questions.In my free time, I enjoy making music (I play the piano, flute, and guitar!), visiting art museums, and yoga.

I am a recent graduate from Columbia University where I majored in neuroscience and philosophy. I have been tutoring for many years both privately and more formally in the classroom setting, focusing mainly on students in grades 9-12 (although I have worked with essentially all ages). In my career-plan, I am aiming to become a professor and researcher in the sciences and psychology--this is derived from my love of teaching and inspiring passion in others for what they may not naturally find interesting. I have cultivated many skills that are incredibly useful for students aiming to maintain a solid GPA, do well on the SATs, and get into the college of their choice. I especially know, very well, what admissions committees are looking for, and I have facilitated the acceptance of many students (who struggled considerably with academics and standardized tests) into ivy league and other top tier schools. I believe that the most successful learning comes when the student is able to develop a self-sustaining curiosity and interest in the subject matter, and, along with imparting skills and techniques to maintain grades and test scores, I have developed techniques myself to make students feel this sort of interest in what they're studying (even for the subjects that had previously seemed to be the most mundane).

I graduated with a BA in Economics and a minor in French from Columbia.I have experience with a wide range of students, varying in age from grade school to adults. Most recently I tutored college test prep (ACT/SAT/SAT II/AP) and college level statistics. In the past I've been a math homework helper for elementary school students, a swim instructor, and led a bilingual workshop in Panama on environmental conservation, which culminated in the awarding of certificate degrees to 12 adult students.My favorite subjects to tutor are SAT and ACT math. While these are the subjects most students dread, I find that this is where a good tutor can induce the most "Ah ha!" moments because there are so many patterns that can help you ace that test if you know where to look. Helping students conquer these subjects (and become "math people") by identifying and breaking down the methodology is very rewarding.My philosophy for tutoring has always been:Some people teach to the test. Others teach to the book. I teach to the individual.Outside of tutoring my hobbies include yoga, biking, hiking, drawing, crafts, dancing (ballet and salsa are my favorite right now), French cinema, reading (magazines, novels, history), and occasionally skiing.

Tutoring was my first job, and I remember how much I loved it. I tutored students from 8 years old to 18 years old, not to mention the 8 younger cousins and siblings I have. I love seeing understanding light up in a student's eyes when they understand a new concept or finally get something they've been struggling with. When they finally get something, a new path opens to them and a new possibility appears.In my tutoring, the basics are emphasized. The basics are the foundation to understanding bigger and more complicated concepts. Without them, learning becomes a struggle. With them, it can be fun and easy. And when something is fun, students want to do more. It no longer is a fight to do assignments or practice.Practice is also key in my tutoring. The more practice there is, the more comfortable a student will feel. No one wants to do something discomforting, so comfort and, once again, understanding, is of utmost importance.Overall, my goal is to make sure you feel comfortable in your classes or for your tests and are clear in what you are learning, all while making it fun and enjoyable!

I am currently completing post-baccalaureate pre-medical program at Columbia University. Prior to my academic career at Columbia, I was a student-athlete at College of the Holy Cross, where I majored in International Relations. I am passionate about teaching because I love learning. I enjoy helping my students grow and helping them become eager to learn.

I graduated from Williams College, receiving honors with my B.A. in English Literature. In 2016, I will receive my M.A. in Art and Art Education from Columbia University. Since graduating from Williams, I have been teaching middle school English and high school art in public schools. With my 9 years of private tutoring experience, I also meet with clients all over New York City and Long Island, tutoring middle and high school students in Test Prep, Writing and Reading, and adults in English language.I believe in hard work and having fun while prepping for important tests. As a native New Yorker growing up here, I attended Hunter College High School and the Brearley School, so I know how important test prep is! Because of my experience as a teacher and student, I firmly believe that excelling at school not only leads to great academic opportunities, but also an essential sense of self-esteem and accomplishment. I believe that every student has the potential to achieve amazing things, and I will guide each and every one of them to that.In my spare time I like to see jazz, classical and rock concerts around the city, go to museums, make art, spend time with my pets, cook and exercise.

I am a PhD candidate in Sociocultural Anthropology at Columbia University. I graduated Magna Cum Laude from McGill University with a double major in Sociology and World Religions, which I followed with an MA in Religious Studies. I then moved to Columbia where I completed another MA and an MPhil both in Anthropology. I have done extensive ethnographic and archival research in India with support from the Fulbright Foundation, the Wenner-Gren Foundation, and the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada. Throughout my graduate level education I have worked as a Teaching Assistant, lecturing, grading, and designing curriculum for university level students. As a teaching assistant, I have also tutored countless university students, assisting them in developing their skills as readers, writers, and critical thinkers. Beyond the university, I have tutored young children, ages 7-14, in English through an NGO in India, as well as adults in New York in the Tamil language. I can expertly tutor a broad range of subjects including but not limited to History, English Writing and Literature, and the Social Sciences. I successfully completed AP American History, AP European History, AP Biology, and AP English Literature, and am certain that I can offer students insight and study skills in each subject. I am a very experienced academic writer and can assist in the development of grammar, mechanics, and powerfully communicative writing. Having succeeded in applying to top schools myself, I can also help students reach for entrance into the very best educational institutions.

My own experiences taught me the influence that an educator can have on a budding reader. As a high school freshmen, I was more interested in the cracks in the ceiling than any books being discussed. But one educator took a personal interest in me, and introduced me to Joseph Heller's letters. The humor pulled me in, and the insight kept me going. I was struck by a writer's power to put the world in sharp, sane relief.I pursued my newfound interest to a Bachelor's Degree in English at Princeton, and my current pursuit of a fiction MFA at Columbia University. On the professional front, I have served editorial roles at Standard & Poor's, Encore Magazine, and Untitled. These experiences taught me the key role that written communication plays outside of academia, and the universal value of sharpening that skill.I believe that patience and empathy are essential to teaching. An educator needs the ability to understand the myriad difficulties faced by students, and the frustration that can come with it. Only then can they help students move forward.

My name is Golddy Saldana and I am a recent graduate of The Johns Hopkins University where I received a B.S. in Neuroscience and Visual Arts. Currently, I am studying for my Masters in Narrative Medicine at Columbia University. I have ample experience working with and teaching children of all ages. In previous years, I have tutored for the SAT, ACT, geometry, and calculus. Given my academic background, I also feel confident and readily prepared to teach high school and college-level Biology and Chemistry.

To me, physics is the coolest thing ever. I know you may not agree and honestly, I don't blame you. Physics can be pretty tough, and a teacher that doesn't feel like a good match can make matters all the worse, and not to mention boring. But the right teacher can really make a difference. I've been fortunate to have some great teachers, and something they all seem to have in common is a genuine passion for physics. And not only did they love physics, but they also loved sharing physics with others. I love physics too, and back when I started my college career I really wanted to get good at it. At the time I figured what better way to do that than to help others with physics. So I signed up as a tutor in the physics help center, and thus began my life in trying to help people navigate the world of physics. It turns out things worked out pretty well. I got to learn the subject I loved even better, and in the process I also got to help people work out their issues with physics.Aside from my experience as a tutor, I also work as a mechanical engineer. I have worked in the aerospace and railcar industries. I have a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from Columbia University, and a B.S. in Physics from Adelphi University. I have taught college level physics, and have tutored students at both high school and college levels.I've helped a lot of students over the years, which is something I've very much enjoyed. I can't promise you'll love physics as much as I do, but I promise to help you see that it is pretty cool and super useful. And by the way, it turns out that you have to be pretty decent in math to manage physics, so I tutor in that as well!

I am currently a student at Columbia University, and I am majoring in Operations Research. I have tutored many other students in high school on 9th/10th grade math, and I am comfortable with tutoring any other subject I am fluent in. In my spare time, I love to exercise and watch anime.I love to teach and help others understand subjects they may need help with. I am willing to spend effort to help students solidify their knowledge. I am excited to share my passion for learning with you!

Hello! I help students reach their writing goals, from generating ideas to revising and polishing finished work. My experience designing and teaching writing seminars at Columbia University and editing the Columbia Journal gives me the tools to guide students as the produce work they can be proud of.

I am a rising junior at Columbia University and am working toward a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science (with a focus in International Politics and American Politics) and History. For the past several years, I have volunteered as an English as a second language (ESL) tutor for adult immigrants, assisted high school students with college essay supplements, and most recently tutored Spanish, History, and English to underprivileged Latinx students in the Bronx. Drawing on each of these experiences, I am most passionate about tutoring Spanish and essay writing. I am half-Salvadorian and love connecting with Spanish culture especially by communicating and speaking the language with others. Regarding essay writing, I enjoy raising questions about texts, analyzing themes, and assessing authors' decisions whether that be sentence structure, character development, or plot twists. My teaching philosophy revolves around listening, patience, creating opportunities for students to ask questions, and sharing my own experiences related to academia with students. I am most eager to help students on this platform because I desire to work with students one-on-one and serve as a catalyst for their personal growth and achievement of their goals. In my free time, I enjoy reading biographies and international relations pieces, watching and playing sports with friends, trying out new cuisines in New York City, and traveling.

I am a BS/MS student at Columbia University studying Electrical engineering and also following the premed curriculum. After my undergraduate, I hope to pursue an MD-PhD and work in a teaching/research hospital as a physician-engineer.I am committed to teaching and tutoring for the satisfaction of making a difference in someone else's education. I have over four years of experience tutoring, starting as a volunteer when I was still in high school. Many students at my high school came from lower-income families and didn't have expensive test prep classes or professional tutoring agencies within their means, yet still aspired to some of the best universities in the country. To help them achieve their dreams, I started my own six-week ACT prep program after school, free and open to everyone regardless of background or socioeconomic status. I ran this program for two years, working with over 100 students personally in the process. The program is now in its fourth year, and is currently run by my former students. It is also in the process of being made districtwide, not just restricted to my high school.I took all my standardized tests my sophomore year of high school. Since then, I have tutored test prep for the PSAT, SAT, ACT, and SAT IIs as well as for AP and IB exams. While I have tutored a broad range of subjects, my concentration lies in test prep and math, physics, and chemistry. The area I have the most experience with is test-prep tutoring. Let me be completely frank: reading and math are fun; standardized tests in reading and math are not. My philosophy is to make the process as easy and painless for my students as possible, by sharing tips and tricks that have worked for me and my other students - so you can get back to what you do enjoy.When I'm not tutoring, I'm reading, playing the piano (poorly), sleeping, or learning a new language (I speak English, Mandarin, French, and Spanish). In that order.

I recently graduated from Columbia University with a degree in biology. I am currently working in a biochemistry lab at NYU Medical Center and applying to medical school, with hopes of training to be a pediatric surgeon in the future. I have worked as a teaching assistant for a Columbia biology lab course, taught ESL to immigrants from China, and tutored extensively in math, science, and test prep. I especially enjoy tutoring science because I believe that sometimes a little bit of personalized attention can go a long way when students are missing just one or two key points of understanding. I love seeing a concept click and inspiring confidence in my students as they advance through increasingly difficult topics. I also like tutoring test prep because there is no hiding behind the raw numbers, and I enjoy helping my students maximize their potential and achieve their goal scores. Sometimes, a little motivation is all that is needed for a student to excel, and I always work to relate what I am tutoring to a student's interests, both academic and extra-curricular. I rowed varsity crew for three years in high school and one year at Columbia; I also love learning new languages, exploring New York's culinary scene, and (attempting to) recreate some of the dishes on my own!

Greetings! I am passionate about helping students to express themselves more precisely and concisely, in keeping with the two most valued qualities in English language writing. I love helping you to write more clearly. I began teaching writing during my graduate education at Columbia University's School of the Arts, where I earned my MFA in Writing. In addition to teaching the required essay writing course for two years at Columbia, I spent a year on the faculty of Central European University in Budapest, Hungary. I have also worked in numerous writing centers in NYC. I have experience teaching everything from poetry to policy writing, and I enjoy the challenges of helping students to succeed no matter the genre.

I am a graduate of Columbia University School of the Arts, where I received my Masters in Visual Arts, and have a second Masters in English from New York University. I began my teaching career as an Adjunct Professor of English at SUNY at Fashion Institute of Technology and Baruch College. Over the past ten years, I have tutored English, English literature, writing, essay writing, history, classics and study skills and the standardized tests associated with those subjects. I enjoy the teaching process and helping students progress and develop their skills and knowledge. What I especially appreciate about tutoring is it allows me to work closely with a student; assess their individual needs and interests; and see practical, positive results that can have a direct impact on the future of their academic career. Through my previous work experience I have developed a particular passion for teaching writing; and I believe that writing is one of the keys to success in anyone's field of work or study. During my free time, I love to paint, write, see films and theater, cook and travel.

Katherine graduated from Columbia in 2013 where she received her B.A. in Psychology with a special concentration in Linguistics. There she combined her love of language with attention to philosophic inquiry and data-driven research. In addition to her studies, Katherine dedicated much of her time to teaching. She worked as a T.A. in the Psychology Department and volunteered with Brainiacs, a program that brought extracurricular science courses to public schools. Katherine is currently completing an M.A. in Linguistics at The Graduate Center at CUNY where she works on computational models of language acquisition. She is also a adjunct lecturer in Computer Science at Hunter College.Tutoring for now nearly a decade, Katherine is passionate about empowering her students to learn through hands-on challenges. She takes particular pride in the confidence and self-reliance her students develop in their work and works hard to create individualized environments where her students, regardless of age, learning style, or subject, flourish. She has a particular knack for test prep and mathematics.Though shes based in New York City, Katherine is an avid traveler; she has visited 34 of the 50 United States (so far) and 15 countries! She also serves on the Board of Directors for FeelGood, a non-profit organization dedicated to ending extreme poverty.

In regards to English language, I would be happy to help you with your college application essays. I recently graduated from Cornell University and am current a graduate student in Columbia University's Graduate School for English.Throughout my undergraduate studies, I have helped many students formulate and write their personal statement. Additionally, I have written many of my own personal statements which have helped me gain university admission and scholarship. Therefore, I understand how stressful it can be to write a personal statement and supplementary statements for colleges.I truly believe a well formulated personal statement can make an application stand out and garner momentum to help colleges view the applicant as an individual rather than gpa data. I will make sure your essay reflects your particularity and illustrate what makes you a great fit for [insert dream school name].In regards to mathematics, I have always loved the subject and have tutored maths and physics for over 8 years up to the AP BC calculus level.I believe mathematics is very easy if taught correctly. Teachers and professors who have been teaching a math for many years may grow accustomed to their own teaching styles. Therefore, they may assume that a student remembers a specific concept, and rather than going over said concept, they hastily build upon misunderstood fundamentals.When I was in university, I understand that maths can be challenging for a lot of people because teacher and professors may explain math as if they are talking to other mathematicians. Teachers often do not realized that their students are new to math and are not yet scholars.Please feel free to reach out to me. I look forward to working with you.

I am a rising sophomore at Columbia University studying philosophy. I specialize in tutoring high school math, English, and the SAT. This past year I tutored English and math at an elementary/middle school near Columbia. In my free time, I enjoy listening to and playing jazz in a band at Columbia as well as exploring NYC.

I'm a graduate of Columbia University, where I studied Creative Writing, with a concentration in sociology. I started working as a tutor at a community college, where I specialized in tutoring students with disabilities and English language learners. I believe strongly in a student-centered approach, tailoring my teaching to my student's learning style and goals.

I graduated from Dartmouth College with a double major, receiving a Bachelor of Arts in both Biochemistry/Molecular Biology and Music. I continued my education at Columbia University and received Master of Arts in Biology. Starting in middle school and continuing through my graduate career, I have tutored students in a wide variety of subjects, but I was most effective at tutoring math and science because of my lifelong love and aptitude for these subjects. Since I am also working towards a career in molecular biology, I use math and science every day, and I can explain real-world applications and uses for these subjects that may not seem obvious. By demonstrating the use of math and science in everyday life, I am able to help interact with the student and increase their interest in a subject in which they may experience difficulty. I also believe that as a tutor, it is my responsibility to engage with the student to help them achieve and even surpass their goals. In my spare time, I am heavily involved with music in New York City, being part of multiple choirs and continuing to play piano. I also enjoy exercising and exploring the city whenever I have the chance.

I am currently a student at Columbia University pursuing a master's degree in Statistics. I am very passionate about math and statistics, and I have found that teaching students is another passion. I graduated from Bentley University with a degree in Actuarial Science with minors in data technologies and business. I have 3 years of experience tutoring college students in algebra, pre- calculus, calculus I, calculus II, calculus III, statistics, business statistics, and probability. As an experienced tutor, I have the skills and patience needed to tailor my approach to meet each student's unique learning needs. I believe that every student has potential to excel and I am committed to helping students reach their full potential. I love working with students and seeing them succeed.

Hi! I'm Meghana and I'm currently a senior at Columbia University studying Industrial Engineering. Throughout college, I have been involved in an organization called Camp Kesem where I was a counselor for kids whose parents were affected by cancer. Through this I developed a sense of empathy and patients that I hope to utilize when tutoring students I work with. I have also had experience tutoring high school students one-on-one in a variety of subjects. Through this, I was able to come up with unique ways of teaching students complex subjects. I have taken intensive coursework and volunteered throughout college whether at the local hospital or campus event. If you need any help with Calculus AB, Calculus 3+4, any level of Algebra, Statistics, Probability, Biochemistry, or standardized examination prep I'm the tutor for you! I can help teach concepts, work on homework, or review for exams. Feel free to send me a contact request to chat. Hope to help you conquer any subjects you need assistance in!

I have been tutoring students in math and science and standardized test prep for over ten years. All of my students' scores and grades have improved. As one mom said "Before Gil, Ethan was getting a C in chemistry. After Gil, A-!! Thank you Gil!!" I can help you!I have unlimited patience (thanks in part to raising my seven year old son!) and am very supportive. I encourage questions and believe in making a safe environment where any question is encouraged and no one is afraid to tell me they don't understand something, or to go over something, even if we have already gone over it. Sometimes a different angle or explanation is required, as every student learns differently. I love when my students have that "A-ha!" moment, when something that was not clear becomes clear.I realize all students are different and am happy to work in different subjects with students of different levels and ages and abilities. I can help you!

I am a graduate of Columbia University, where I earned a degree in Biomedical Engineering. My academic journey, coupled with my diverse professional experiences in project management, consulting, and teaching, has fueled my passion for education and helping students unlock their potential. Over the years, I have worked as a TA, guided students in STEM subjects, and currently tutor a variety of topics, including mathematics, science, and SAT preparation. Among the subjects I tutor, I find immense joy in teaching science and mathematics. Breaking down complex concepts into relatable, digestible ideas and watching students gain confidence in their abilities is incredibly rewarding. My tutoring philosophy is rooted in patience, adaptability, and collaborationI strive to meet students where they are and tailor each session to their unique needs and learning styles. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy exploring the world through travel, baking creative treats, and indulging in thought-provoking films. These hobbies enrich my perspective and creativity, which I often bring into my sessions to make learning engaging and relevant. Education is a gateway to empowerment, and I'm dedicated to helping my students walk through that gateway with confidence and curiosity.

I am a passionate of knowledge and learn everyday from everyone. I am also very enthusiastic to share what I know with others. I believe the best way to learn is to share knowledge and exchange ideas. Tutoring requires patience and the beauty of it is to see the success of the students!

As a professor at Boston University, my favorite part of the job has been working with students one-on-one. I love taking the time to go deeply into a subject with a learner and help him or her discover what makes it fascinating. Working on writing is another aspect of educating that I love; to draw out ideas, to make them clearer and more forceful, is very rewarding to me, and I love reading drafts and seeing the development of an argument or an original insight.I began working with students after I completed my BA at Georgetown University and went into a Master's program at NYU in Religious Studies. As a teaching assistant, I had the opportunity to talk to students about their papers and exams, and I discovered that I had a knack for getting people to relax and get into a subject, possibly because I love to tell corny jokes. While earning my PhD at Columbia University, I continued teaching, but I missed the more intimate setting of the small groups and office hours of NYU. I am excited to get back to working one-on-one as a tutor who helps with college essays, English grammar and composition, and edits essays of all kinds.

I am currently a student at Columbia University, majoring in American Studies and Latin American Studies. I have been tutoring for seven years and I have worked with students of all ages - from Kindergarteners to other college students. Tutoring brings me so much joy, and I consider myself to be a compassionate and enthusiastic teacher. While I am personally most passionate about subjects in the humanities, such as English, History, and Foreign Languages, I enjoy all of the subjects that I tutor and hope that my students will come away from our sessions with a greater love of learning.
