Award-Winning Tutors from CUNY Brooklyn College

I am a patient and encouraging tutor who focuses on making learning clear, engaging, and confidence building. I work with elementary school students in English, math, and science, and I adapt my teaching style to match each child's pace and learning style. I believe strong foundations are key, so I break concepts down in a simple and supportive way while helping students build independence and self trust. My goal is to create a calm space where students feel comfortable asking questions and proud of their progress. I also offer French and introductory marketing support, bringing creativity and real world thinking into lessons when appropriate. I am reliable, attentive, and genuinely invested in helping each student succeed.

I have been a teacher for 15 years. After graduating with a Bachelors Degree in Literature from Hawaii Pacific University, I went on to work in the professional training sector in London, designing an online training course for new recruiters. Then I returned stateside and earned my Masters Degree in Secondary English Education from Brooklyn College and have been a certified NYS teacher since. I see life as a never-ending opportunity to learn new things and conquer new challenges, and you have to be able to laugh at yourself along the way. In my teaching, I try to instill that joy and adventure of learning in everything I do with my students.

I migrated from Peru to America in the 80’s not knowing any English and realized the importance of being bilingual. After taking English classes and a lot of self study, I learned enough of the language to enroll in college. I got my bachelor and master’s degree in Spanish at Brooklyn College and tutoring my fellow classmates helped me pay for my tuition. Since then, I worked as a part time Spanish substitute teacher and was promoted to a full time teacher in public schools in Brooklyn. In 2013 my hard work paid off when my students got a 100 percent pass rate in their Spanish Lote Exam (the new name for Regents in Foreign Language). While I was teaching, I continued to tutor students who needed help in Spanish of all ages and grades. I have a particular student of Russian decent who I’ve been tutoring since she was in Junior High. When she went to high school, she took Spanish as her language of choice. Her teacher even thought she was Spanish because she spoke the language very well. At the present moment, I am still tutoring her in Spanish but this time, her lessons are more conversational. Due to my struggles as an immigrant, I tell all my students that it’s very important to go to college and get their education because it is something that no one can take away form you. It’s their ticket to their freedom and independence. In my spare time I practice yoga, spend time with my daughters and read books.

As a child I developed a love for reading that has lasted throughout my adult life. I enjoy helping students acquire strong literacy skills and instilling in them a similar love of reading. I received my Bachelor's degree from Brooklyn College with a major in Television Production and a minor in English. It was my study in English literature that eventually led me into teaching. I have taught in both preschool and public school. As a teacher it was my responsibility to help students learn and expand their literacy skills such as; letter recognition, phonics, grammar and vocabulary. Since reading and writing are so closely connected I also enjoy helping students to express their ideas and opinions on paper. I have taught both general and special education students; so I am familiar with writing and maintaining IEP goals. I think learning should be interactive and interesting, therefore I try to use music and games whenever appropriate. When I begin working with a student; I assess their current skills so that I can build on what they already know and help them to achieve their academic goals.I believe that all children can learn given the right tools and support.

I received my undergraduate degree in Elementary Education from Morgan State University, a Master's degree as a Reading Specialist from Brooklyn College, and a Master's in Education Administration from Grand Canyon University. I am a 30-year veteran elementary school educator. I have taught K-4th grades in large urban centers. In my roles as a classroom teacher, instructional coach, and assistant principal, I've worked mainly with underserved student bodies from Baltimore, MD, to Brooklyn, NY. As an elementary school teacher, I have taught all subjects, but I have a passion for teaching reading. Reading is the one skill that you have to know how to do in order to learn all the other content areas. Reading is not only necessary for learning. Reading is also something to be enjoyed. I want to share my love of reading with the students that I tutor.

I also provide structured test-prep support with a focus on strategy, confidence building, and skill mastery. My teaching philosophy centers on clarity, structure, and individualized learning paths. I help students develop strong thinking routines, independence, and the academic habits that lead to long-term success. Whether supporting a struggling reader, guiding an IB student through complex concepts, or coaching an adult learner preparing for certification exams, I create high-quality, targeted sessions that are both supportive and results-driven. Outside of teaching, I enjoy writing, travel, and design of which expand my global perspective and enrich the learning experiences I create. My goal is always to help learners grow with confidence, curiosity, and purpose.

Breaking your language barriers and improve your performance. To do all of the above it is crucial to learn from a highly qualified skillful language tutor with many years of teaching experience. While tutoring, I will use practical examples with meaning full explanation, which will make learning a foreign language easy and fun.

My name is Zhu and people call me Defendi. I am so glad to be here. This is a wonderful time in my life. Teaching people is one of my favorite things to do. I am kind and patient. I will always try my best to make things easier and more interesting during my tutoring sessions. I am here to teach math, language, and others.

I graduated from CUNY Brooklyn College with a Bachelor of Arts in Economics. Since then, I have earned certificates from NYU in Marketing, Real Estate, and Construction. I Live to Learn! Learning is growing, expanding one's mind to search for more. It can be exhilarating! I realized I had a passion to teach when I was in college. Along with my real estate practice, I always taught courses, or took courses. I vowed to take 4 courses annually. Adult education has the capacity to learn from students from all walks of life. To collaborate and share our experiences , getting to know others, is fun! That is always my goal, to make my knowledge come alive for others. Real Estate has been my passion for many years. I am a business owner who has traveled the country to enrich my practice. Developing homes has been my greatest passion. To see the finished product and turn over the key to the new homeowner is a privilege. I love to impart my skills in Buying and Selling Real Estate, Today's Mortgage Products, and The Steps to employ when buying your first home, to name a few. Through real life examples we can learn the many tricks of the trade. When I begin each lesson my hope is that I make each and every student expand their knowledge in a way that enhances their life.

I have been teaching for over thirty-five years and have enjoyed every moment. To me, education is not just about learning facts and passing exams, it is also about becoming a life-long learner. It is about using knowledge to improve one's life both personally and professionally. There are skills which need to be mastered and this is one important element of education. I also believe that education can improve one's enjoyment of life regardless of the occupation or field of study one pursues.I am especially proficient in the areas of essay writing and editing, proofreading, and the mechanics of grammar and usage. I have extensive experience in helping students prepare for standardized tests such as the SAT. I have also taught AP English and I am very familiar with the requirements of the AP Exam.

It has always been my desire to work with youth to help them develop the skills necessary to function and thrive in our society. While I was always a strong academic performer, I lacked the guidance, support, and mentoring that my classmates enjoyed at home. My goal as a tutor is to provide those needs that can sometimes be lacking in a school setting.I enjoyed a successful post-high school career in the Construction Management and Architecture fields. Like so many others I found myself laid-off Following the 2008 economic collapse. By 2011 I had enrolled in college in pursuit of a B.A. in History and a B.A. in Secondary Education complemented by minors in Art History and Communication. I graduated cum laude in 2014, demonstrating that it is never too late to fulfill one's goals or dreams. Additionally, I was inducted into The National Education Honor Society, The National History Honor Society, and Gold Key International Honor Society (for the top 15 percentile of my class).I value education and I love history. History itself is a reading and writing intensive subject and, therefore, the subject through which middle- and high-school students learned critical reading and writing skills. As I stress to me students, it is also the subject that encourages student to develop their own opinions. I want to help youth to learn and utilize the skills of evidence-based academic argument and critical thinking. My goal is to develop the student skill set and, by extension, the student confidence to meet the requirements in this area. By working closely together, I believe the student can exceed expectations and apply what we learn to all facets of education.

I am a graduate of both Michigan State University and Brooklyn College. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Women's Studies with a focus on African History. I also have a Master of Science in Math Education. Before I went back to school to become a math teacher, I worked as a bookkeeper for a non-profit, an organizer for a national conference that connects media arts and education, and as an editor for a local newspaper in my hometown of Detroit, Michigan. I have been a classroom teacher for eight years, teaching mainly math (but also science, literacy, and journalism) at both a high school and middle school level. I love working one-on-one with students to help them understand they can do so much more than they think they can. While I tutor multiple subjects, I am most passionate about teaching math. My goal with my students is to guide them through their challenges, facilitating their understanding through questioning, practice, and discovery. I want them to not just understand what they are learning, but to truly own their knowledge and begin to appreciate and LOVE what they are doing. In my spare time, I love to read, swim, dance, sing, and practice yoga.

I am currently a student at Macaulay Honors at Brooklyn College, part of the BAMD Program. Teaching has always been a favorite past time of mine, and I tend to excel in science and writing classes. My goal is to help everyone I can with these subjects and more!

I'm currently a high school chemistry teacher, certified in Earth and Environmental Science, and I'm super excited to support in your academic needs!

I am a graduate of Brooklyn College. I received my Bachelors of Arts in Mathematics Education & Mathematics. As well in majoring in Math, I also minored in sociology, which provided more insight of the interaction of people. I am working on obtaining my teaching certification. I have experience teaching large math classes to working with small groups or individuals. While working with a tutoring program for at risk students, I had the opportunity to provide in-home tutoring to a range of age groups from 1st to 12th graders. With this company I tutored in English and Math. I've worked with TRIO program, providing tutoring to high school students in English and Math. As an educator, my job is to strengthen the knowledge of my students' skills/foundation and to present the material in ways that once seemed challenging as not so complex. I live for the "oh, I get it" moments.

I'm a law student and long time tutor who's just made the move to Varsity. I've been tutoring for about eight years now, since I first started working with a friend of a friend's child on his SATs. I graduated from Brooklyn College with a degree in economics, and I'm at Hofstra Law School. I tutor the SATs, ACTs, LSAT, GRE, basically all high school subjects, and a bevy of college ones, including history, psychology, economics, law, and writing. That's not because I'm an expert in everything - it's because the only thing I enjoy more than learning is helping someone else learn. A good tutor doesn't just explain the subject to you - they explain what's cool about it, how it applies to your life, and why you want to learn it. If I have to brush up on my AP Chemistry as an excuse to explain why dimensional analysis is actually the most useful math you'll ever learn, I find it thrilling, not a chore. That's really my whole paradigm, as a tutor. Every subject has a relation to both everyday life, and to the coolest parts of the collective achievements of humanity. Learning not just what Pi is, but what it means, is treading the same ground as the people who built the pyramids. We lose that joy - the enrichment granted by greater understanding - too often in sterile and boring classrooms. My goal is to help students attain mastery by providing the context and tools that let them have "Eureka!" moments. Learning is fun, and tutoring is more than just being a living wikipedia article. It's giving life to the dry and soulless problem set, making fun of the trap answers on the LSAT, and linking history to its greatest stories. I don't need gimmicks and games to make that happen. I just find where a student and I can connect over the material, how they learn, and what they're having trouble with. I won't guarantee anyone a score on a test or promise that everyone can get an A in every subject. But I do promise not to waste anyone's time or money. Every session, my students will learn new facts, new techniques, or new ways to understand some boring idea. That's not because I'm the smartest guy in the room: it's because I simply love seeing people learn.

I want to be the teacher who makes a difference in your child's life. Over my 30 years of teaching and tutoring grades one through eight in reading and math, I have developed strategies, methods, and "tricks" to help students learn and remember the academic skills that they need to be successful. My love to teach + patience + teaching experience = the perfect tutor for your child and you. If your child needs enrichment or remediation, it would be my pleasure to work with him/her and hear those words that always make me smile, "That's it? That's easy!" Just as it is your goal, it is also my goal for your child to make progress and feel more comfortable and confident in school.

I have a Master's Degree in International/ Intercultural Education which has led me to become an expert in conducting research and writing. I also have classroom experience which has been helpful in developing my presentation skills along with my ability to help English language learners. I was an English teacher in Haiti during the Summer of 2012 - one of the best experiences of my life. I have experience helping Middle School, High School and College students with comparative essays and with basic grammar. I love reading non-fiction and biographies; I'm a real fact finder aficionado.Aside from my writing abilities, I have vast experience working as a Spanish interpreter. I worked in a law firm for two years where I was the main source of communication between families, clients and court officials. I have helped many people with Spanish pronunciation and with preparing presentations in Spanish.

I currently work in the music industry and am a practicing artist. Throughout my years at school, I tutored my peers and some younger students in English and writing subjects, and continued it on the side while I pursued my other career interests as well.I am passionate about inspiring the students I tutor to take on their own interest in learning, reading, and writing in a way that suits and stimulates them. Each student has unique tastes, interests, and styles of learning, and this is a central concept to my teaching approach. I work with each student to find out their individual strengths and weaknesses, while helping them recognize what tools and resources they can use to help them on their academic journey.I tutor in reading comprehension, writing, essay writing and editing, and SAT reading and writing as well as AP English subjects. I am a strong proponent for encouraging and inspiring students to seek out learning opportunities on their own outside of school, and to find enjoyment in their studies and academic pursuits.

I taught college courses during my time at Brooklyn College in science, public speaking, and an overview of speech language pathology. I love teaching a variety of subject matter in creative ways as I believe true understanding comes when you are truly immersed in a topic. I really enjoy finding activities that encourage individuals to enjoy the tasks that are challenging them by incorporating favorite topics and games.I have experience working with individuals ages 0-99 years old. Through my graduate study I also worked closely with individuals with special needs. I understand that tutoring involves individualizing lesson plans because everyone learns differently. I love finding the methods that work best for my students and seeing the joy that comes from success in the classroom.

I believe the more applications you have with a language and the more engaged you are the better your understanding will be. There are so many creative ways to approach learning a new language and I love working together with my student to find the ways that make it the most enjoyable and effective.

While we humans try to understand Nature, I believe, Math is the language we employ to efficiently decode the study (called science) of the wonders of Nature around us. I found this as the major magnet, to begin with, that attracted me to the subject of Mathematics. In addition, the joy of making our young ones understand the subject and positioning them to take advantage of future possibilities such knowledge offers is a priceless fulfillment for me. With these as my basic reasons for being an educator, it has always given me a tremendous satisfaction each time my explanation makes my students understand a math concept, the light lit up in their heads, and their eyes glow with that radiant confirmation of the knowledge they have newly acquired. I guess that is what all true educators live for judging from my experience within a couple of decades during which I have been involved in teaching mathematics.

I am an artist, mom, editorial professional, and tutor living in Brooklyn, NY.I graduated from Brooklyn College as a Magna Cum Laude with a double major in History and Political Science and a minor in Art (including Art History). I was passionate about the social sciences, seeking out additional coursework, as well as Comparative Literature and English courses. Later, I completed a pre-med curriculum (including Biology, Pre-Calculus, Physics, and two terms each of Introductory and Organic Chemistry). This led to one (unhappy) year at NYU Dental School.I have worked in publishing, as a proofreader, editorial assistant, production editor and computer graphic designer.Later, following time as a primary caregiver with my child, I became a per diem teacher. I developed an expertise and was sought out to help with my district's gifted program and filled in for maternity leaves with two 3rd grade classes. Helping students one-on-one was definitely my favorite part of teaching! I observed how, in the group environment of the classroom, a struggling student will float through the day. Given individual focus, he/she retained more material, creating important scaffolding in their efforts to catch up to current material.During this time, I also began to build my skills as an artist bolstered by select classes at several NYC-area art schools, and a scholarship/residency with the Manhattan Graphics Center. I’ve won competitions, participated in group shows, and created site-specific pieces in Brooklyn. Currently, I'm working with an online company painting detailed miniature pendants of beloved pets. I think about what I’ve gained from teaching and want to impart to others: the balance of developing confidence and seeking out challenges, building on the knowledge and experience in your "comfort zone."Currently, I’m working as a tutor and art teacher at an after school center in Brooklyn, for grades K-2. This is largely a "gifted’ group" and my work with them focuses on homework and enrichment, with some in-depth tutoring for students with specific issues. I’ve introduced the children to origami, and it’s been very exciting to aid and observe their development. We also create pop-up cutouts, paint and draw from observation, and build sculptural objects using clay and popsicle sticks.In addition to art, my interests include exercise, reading, and spending time with family and friends.

I have experience teaching elementary, middle, and high school students. My expertise is with math (algebra and geometry), history (US and world) as well as english (writing as well as reading). I want my students to genuinely learn and appreciate the material they are learning.

I am a graduate of Hampton University and Brooklyn College, the City University of New York. My Bachelor's degree is in Broadcast Journalism and my Master's degree is in Education. For the past 8 years, I have worked as a Special Education Teacher for students in grades K-6. I am passionate about education because I believe that education is the passport to the future, but the future will belong to those who prepare for it today. I believe that by helping students develop their Reading, Writing, and Math skills, I am equipping them today with the tools they'll need to be successful in the future. I know that everyday, I have the privilege and responsibility of developing the minds of the future leaders, and problem solvers of the world. I tutor students in Phonics, Reading Comprehension, Writing and Math. My teaching style is fun, yet firm. I am personable, but professional. I love watching my students' confidence grow as they reach their goals. When I'm not working with students I love eating at local restaurants, listening/singing music, and binging on Netflix movies.

I am a certified ESL Instructor. I studied Cross-cultural Communication at Brooklyn College and have experience teaching ESL in both the U.S. and Haiti. I knew that teaching ESL was something that I wanted to do because throughout my childhood I had to be a translator for my mother. I was born and raised in New York City but have firsthand experience with how challenging life can get when you're living in a place where the language, and consequently the culture, is foreign to you. In regards to education, being able to learn new information is challenging enough but then becomes more challenging when you struggle with the language. This is why I want to help! I understand that I am very blessed to be able to communicate articulately and I am so excited to help others communicate that way too!

I am a student working towards completing a double major in biology and psychology from Brooklyn College in hopes to pursue a career in Medicine!

I am a highly experienced tutor who has worked with a wide variety of students of all ages, backgrounds and ethnicities. Over the past 15 years, I have worked with the NO Child Left Behind Program in NYC schools, tutored regents, test Prep, homework and many academic subjects for middle school, high school and college. I am an MBA graduate of Pace University in NYC and have a CPA license as well as post MBA education. Over the past twenty years, I have held senior financial management positions in major NYC based companies and currently serve as Comptroller for a large organization. While comfortable teaching English and Math test prep and Regents prep for a wide range of exams, over the past year, I have worked quite a lot with ISEE, SHSAT, SSAT and Algebra students. From the first diagnostic that I give to my students, I quickly develop a strategy to work with them on to improve their performance, test taking ability and understanding of their weakest areas.I am also a certified personal trainer and believe strongly in the adage "A sound mind in a sound body." Culturally, I appreciate music, art, theater, film, dance, museums, reading, lectures and travel. I am incredibly proud that my twin daughters graduated from Ivy League institutions and are independent young women.

I am a graduate of Brooklyn Technical High School, a specialized high school focused on science, math, and engineering. I currently attend the Macaulay Honors College at the Brooklyn College Campus, where I am taking a pre-med route, and obtaining my Bachelor of Science in Biology and my Bachelor of Arts in Linguistics. I have vast tutoring experience stemming from my dedication to a variety of tutorials over the years, and have experience working with children of all age groups, and various subjects. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about Science, Mathematics, and Writing Skills. I truly believe that each child has a different way of learning, and through experience, I have learned multiple methods to teach children and allow them to reach their best potential. Education is a vital role in life, and I believe that allowing children to get an ease in topics they have difficulty with, will allow them to love the subject and learning just as much as I love teaching it!

I am a 20 year old who enjoys critical thinking and analyzing situations. That being said, I enjoy chess and mathematics for the simple reason that I can apply the practices I learned in both of those in real life. Currently, I am a college student at Brooklyn College majoring in Computer Science and minoring in Music Technology. As a Computer Science major, I've come to appreciate languages like XHTML, CSS, Java and Processing and while I know how to code in C++, I tend to stay away from it because Java has spoiled me with the lack of pointers and no need to deleting allocated memory. As for the music technology aspect of myself, I just enjoy producing beats from game music already created.

I am a native Spanish speaker and began learning English as a second language after graduating from college in Mexico City. I completed a full English course from Basic through TOEFL exam training. Then, I started an intensive course of Italian at Mexico Citys Istituto Italiano di Cultura, where I was a scholarship recipient. Gaining fluency in these two languages as an adult helped me to learn highly efficient language training methods that I have used in turn with private students in English, Spanish, and translation work. In New York, I also began studying French and German, including courses at the Alliance Franaise and the Deutsches Haus, at New York University. In 2008, I earned a Master's Degree in Music from Brooklyn College, City University of New York.As a Music major, I find the music learning process extremely useful for languages and I would apply many of the methods musicians use into the improvement and refinement of languages when tutoring.

Mathematics is a fundamental tool for understanding and exploring the real world.
