I'm an NYU (New York University) student pursuing a degree in Economics. I'm a hands on tutor who loves students, and I'm passionate about sharing my interests. I graduated high school with a bilingual diploma in Spanish, am familiar with Spanish language and culture, and have traveled widely. I'm also an avid writer and blogger.

I am biologist passionate about teaching and making peoples lives easier.
As a current Psychology major at New York University heavily immersed in Child and Adolescent Psychotherapy, I am very passionate about helping students achieve their respective goals through individualized support, care, and instruction.I am offering tutoring in AP French Language and Culture, Conversational French, Elementary Ready & Writing, English, French I, II, III & 4, High School English, High School Level American Literature, High School Writing, IB Theater, Middle School Reading Comprehension, and Middle School Writing.My favorite subject to tutor would probably be French. I grew up in a bilingual household, so I really enjoy showing other people how to access French in an accessible, fun way.Outside of academia, I really enjoy theater, horseback riding, traveling, going out to eat, and going out to the dog park with my baby goldendoodle Milo!
As an award-winning journalist with 10 years of experience writing professionally, I have learned to write quickly, accurately, and with finesse. I can help you do the same. Whether you are prepping for a test, brushing up on grammar or applying for college, I can help you accomplish your writing and reading goals.I earned a Master of Science, with honors, in journalism from Columbia University and a bachelor's in history from New York University. In my career, I have worked both as a writer and an editor. I also have done work as a writing coach and copy editor for people applying for schools and grants and writing manuscripts.I love working one-on-one with people especially when I can help them succeed. My tutoring philosophy is that no two students are the same; I will adapt every session to an individuals' needs. I can help you work on your college essays, expository and persuasive writing, grammar, public speaking, and English.Outside of my work, I love travel--especially spontaneous road trips. I love to unwind after a long day by cooking and baking. And, of course, I love to read. I enjoy all kinds of works, especially history and long-form journalism.
I am a graduate of New York University???s undergraduate history program. My main focus was the cultural and intellectual history of WWII Japan. In my final summer at NYU I traveled to Japan where I studied Japanese, traditional music, and Wartime film.I offered my academic services both in high school and college, often to my peers, primarily in writing and mathematics. I work carefully with students to bring out clarity and richness of expression in their writing. Essays are essentially portraits of your character and logical flow, which is often where students are lost, is crucial towards creating a compelling voice. Mathematics is similar; it requires a practiced hand and a clear mental map. I am happy to guide students at any level and tailor lessons to their needs.Although I enjoy writing and mathematics the most, I have a passion for physics, earth sciences, reading comprehension French and Japanese. I encourage students to find freedom in these subjects rather than trauma. In each lies a means of expression and an opportunity for dialogue. Physics, for example, offers us a completely new vocabulary for describing our natural world. My goal is for you to develop a comfortable rhythm using unfamiliar vocabulary and the ideas behind them. Patience, young one, and you will feel empowered, not intimidated on test day!My method involves students in developing their own ways of learning and exploring what makes sense to them. We all come from different backgrounds and connect with material in different ways. Together we can develop this as a strength so that you have your own set of tools that you can apply to any problem. This, ultimately, is the test of any academic pursuit. I am comfortable reaching out and adapting the material whether it be SAT, SAT II, IB, AP, or classwork to where you are now.My hobbies include poetry, electronic music, ink drawings and youtube.
Hello! My name is Amanda. I am a junior at NYU. I graduated from Minnetonka High School, which is in a suburb of Minneapolis, Minnesota. I am also a dog walker with Rover in my time outside of school. I love music (I play piano and flute) and the tv show New Girl. This past year I tutored 4th grade ELA and math, 6th grade ELA and math, pre-k, and SAT. I would love to work on something with you!
I have 10+ years of experience in the music field.I graduated from Booker T. Washington High School for the Performing and Visual Arts where I specialized in music. I am a classically and contemporarily trained vocalist with quite a bit of knowledge about the music industry.I currently study Performance Studies at New York University.During my first year at NYU, I released my first single on iTunes, Spotify, and other major music streaming services.I also have a love for the English language and would love to help share my passion!In addition to my knowledge of and love for music and English, I also enjoy math. I was the Vice President of a math fraternity, Mu Alpha Theta while I was in high school and I enjoy working math related puzzles in my free time.
I am a junior at New York University, and I tutor students in SAT prep, AP English Language and Literature, high school English, writing, college essay writing, and French. Tutoring is a passion of mine because I think that learning can be an exciting and enriching experience for all students, whether or not they know it. It can be hard for some students to find a reason to be engaged in their education when they're in large classes, but tutoring offers a unique opportunity to cater to their individual learning style and to identify ways they can be invested in their own education. I love having the opportunity to be involved in that process, as I believe that education has the power to change lives.
A passionate educator with two years of direct English instruction experience with students in grades 8-11. Interested in work centered around social justice, differentiated lesson planning, and empowering students' voices.
My goal is to provide the most constructive learning experience for my students. I try to cater to your individual needs and make sure you understand the material I teach very well. I am compassionate and understanding, but also willing to work hard to get you to reach your goal.
I am a Mechanical Engineering student, and I have tutored elementary and middle school students since 5 years ago. I am most passionate about Physics and Math subjects. I believe that learning should be enjoyable inside and outside the classroom.
I just completed my Master of Science in Public Policy degree at NYU Wagner, in which I specialized in a wide variety of topics including mathematics, statistics, economics, and political science. I also have extensive experience in applying these topics to real-world experiences. I got my undergraduate degree in economics and political science, with a minor in history, from The George Washington University in Washington, DC. In addition to my studies, I have worked at a variety of jobs and internships, including at a polling and strategy firm and as a research assistant to a published presidential historian.My strongest subjects are microeconomics, public economics, and American politics, and I am highly proficient in other areas in economics, high school mathematics, calculus I and European history.I hope that I can share my interest and passion for these subjects and help others achieve the same knowledge and enthusiasm.In my free time I enjoy playing golf and squash, reading, traveling and watching sports
As an educator, I strive to impart confidence and essential skills to every student. I believe nothing is too complicated, provided you break it down into simple parts, and every problem is solvable when you approach it with confidence.One of my specialties is making difficult subjects both engaging and easily accessible. Students are often better able to grasp complicated concepts when they're viewed in an interdisciplinary context. As an artist and techie, I frequently call on both my creative and analytical sides when teaching and developing curriculum, especially in the areas of science-arts. Some of my fondest moments have been when a student mastered a complicated skill or concept with ease because they were so highly focused on the "fun" project or experiment. I bring this same creativity and passion to all disciplines from literature and history to science and scholarly research.
Born in US, raised in Shanghai, China, then moved back to US for college, I am fluent in both English and Mandarin. Eager to help others, I've been tutoring every chance I got; even my focus within my major (Economics) is on Development Economics (helping the poor countries). Patient and with a kind heart, let me help you tackle the challenges you are facing academically!
I am a dental school student at NYU. I grew up in Taiwan for 15 yrs, and I spent the last 10 years in USA. I'm very fun to interact with, please don't hesitate to talk to me.
I'm currently a freshman at New York University in the Stern School of Business majoring in Business and Political Economy. As a student who has experienced 12 years of both good and bad teachers, I understand the relevant skills needed to teach a variety of students. I've spent time my entire high school career helping my peers with general school subjects and two years teaching swimming to younger children. While abroad, I've even taught English to Chinese students. For the fast and slow learners, I have experience with breaking lessons down so that students not only learn and remember the material, but also improve their scores.
I have a BS in Computer Science and Economics from Yale and an MBA from NYU. I have my Series 7 and 57 and work as a proprietary trader on Wall Street. I'm passionate about financial markets, technology and economics. My philosophy towards education is one of efficiency. I believe that time management is the key to accomplishing your academic and professional goals. I'm here to help you not only learn but absorb the material into your skill set.
I am an undergraduate student at New York University, with a major in Psychology but plenty of varied interests. I plan to pursue a double-major as well in an undecided area. I offer test preparation for Regents, SHSAT, ACT, and AP Exams. Moreover, I offer tutoring services in psychology, math, English/social studies, essay editing, general homework support, and assistance with college application essays. I enjoy tutoring all of my subjects, but my favorite would have to be psychology, as it is my major and I am personally interested in it. I have been tutoring for the past three years and have found it extremely rewarding for both my students and myself. I am passionate about helping students because for me, there is nothing better than being interested in learning. To be able to encourage another person's education experience is an amazing thing, and the happiness a student feels when he or she has their "lightbulb moment" is profound.My teaching style is heavily personalized. It is important to establish the student's individual, unique learning style and cater the tutoring experience to his or her needs. Tutoring is a team effort, and my students and I work together to produce results and reach established goals. Outside of academia, I am a writer. I also enjoy spin class, exploring New York, and spending time with my friends.
Reflecting on my educational experiences, I appreciate the immeasurable impact that my former teachers and professors have contributed to my academic success. As a recent graduate, I realize the skills and knowledge acquired in their classrooms have been instrumental in creating opportunities for my academic, personal, and career advancement. Therefore, as a tutor, I hope to inspire the same level of confidence that will enable my students to think critically and bestow upon them the knowledge, motivation, and strategies needed to succeed in their academic endeavors.As an experienced student who has navigated across the spectrum of academia, I know how stressful exam preparation / grade performance can be for ambitious students. With my proven method of test preparation that I used for the SAT, GRE, and GMAT, I can help students plan and execute a strategy that will improve their scores. Similarly, from achieving 700 on the SAT Math to writing a 90 page graduate dissertation, I possess a range of math/language skills that I can pass to my students so that they can surpass their peers and rise to the top of the class.Education:Pittsburgh Central Catholic High School, 2005Pennsylvania State University, 2010BS Supply Chain Management, Smeal College of Business (#5 US News and World Report, Undergraduate Rankings By Major)Stanley Druckenmiller Scholarship RecipientNew York University, 2013 (Accelerated 1 Year Program)MA Cinema Studies, Tisch School of the Arts (#2 USA Today, Graduate Rankings by Major)University of Pittsburgh, 2014 (Accelerated 1 Year Program)MBA, Katz Graduate School of Business (#23 Financial Times, MBA Rankings by Public Institution)May M.

I am currently a rising sophomore in the College of Arts and Science at New York University (NYU). I'm a pre-health student pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Neural Science. I have the most experience tutoring at the high school level; I actively participated in three tutoring programs at my high school and was appointed through my academic performance. Almost all math subjects, especially Algebra and Calculus, are really enjoyable for me to tutor because I love sharing my experiences and seeing students gain confidence in their abilities! Chemistry is a close second mostly because I am currently studying the material for the third time since my sophomore year of high school.I want my students to feel comfortable telling me their expectations for what exactly they hope to gain from me and our session. The student's learning style has the highest priority, and I experiment with teaching methods to see what works best. Every academic discipline equally contributes to the development of a well-rounded and aware individual, so I try to communicate that the knowledge each student stands to gain is incredibly important for their present and future.When I'm not in class, I am actively involved in my college's student council and mentoring program. Also, I enjoy trying new restaurants, exercising, reading, and listening to music.
With a background in banking and financial risk management, I have worked in the US, Asia and Europe, as an analyst and a consultant. There are a wide range of subject matters I am interested in: finance, economics, business writing (I published a number of analyst reports), and science (my dream was to become a physicist). I am passionate about tutoring because I want to share my interest in these subjects, and I will break them down so that it will be easy for my students to understand. I have had ample tutoring/teaching experience (including GMAT preparation and Mandarin workshops) and as a consultant, conducted numerous seminars. Simply put, I enjoyed it, so did my students.
I possess a B.S. in Secondary Education and a Master's Degree in Education. I have eight years of experience teaching Pre-K through adult learners (general and special education).I'm patient and organized with a good sense of humor. I enjoy helping students achieve and exceed their goals!
I earned a B.S. Business Administration from the University of Southern California. I'm now pursuing a J.D. at NYU Law. I have tutored professionally and privately for four years now. Specifically, I tutor Math, English, History, Spanish, French, the SAT, and the LSAT. My favorite subject to teach is French because it is such a unique and interesting language, and it keeps me in practice.I teach my students by starting with the fundamentals and working my way up. This makes it easier for my students to remember what they have learned throughout the semester/year, and it helps them pick up new concepts quickly.When I am not studying or tutoring, I love to read, exercise, and explore. My favorite author is Stephen King, my favorite sports are basketball and snowboarding, and my favorite food is popcorn! I just recently moved to Manhattan, so I venture out into different parts of the city in my free time. So far, I have run into comedians, actors, and many more interesting people.
I am a writer, editor, producer, curator and lover of words. I spent many years holding editorial positions on both coasts (California and New York), but was happy to lay some roots and start a family back home in Minneapolis, a city alive with art, activism and stories waiting to be told. I am excited to help students craft their own words as well as assist with many other subjects, including English, writing, politics and social sciences.
I have been teaching the English language to students from age 10 to 60 for over 20 years. My students include young learners, teenagers, university aged students and professionals. I have taught economists, lawyers, doctors, police officers, nurses, businesswomen and men, as well as nuns, athletes and computer scientists.Teaching is a job and a mission to me; my goal is to help students reach their personal goals, using materials and methods that make the 'journey' to success an interesting and sometimes even enjoyable experience.It would be a pleasure to help you in your search for improvement and greater skills.
I'm currently on a semester off from NYU studying math but I would be senior. I'm originally from New Mexico where I graduated in the top 5% of my class. I was president of the National Honor Society, Model United Nations, and captain of the Speech and debate team. I also participated in All-State Orchestra for all four years of high school and was the concertmaster of my high school's orchestra. At NYU, studying and class work take up most of my time but this summer I'm teaching robotics at a summer camp. As serious as I may sound, I have a very type-B personality and will let you, as the student, set the pace and goals as to what we are doing. Our sessions are for you to learn best-- I'm just there to help you. You decide the intensity!
I am currently a sophomore at NYU, and have lived in New York my entire life. I'm pursuing a degree in computer science, but am also very interested in physics, math, and economics. In my free time I lift weights, cook, and play guitar.
My experience encompasses both private tutoring and formal teaching. At the University of Richmond, I taught biweekly revision classes as part of the official French 221 course. My responsibilities included planning lessons covering grammar, vocabulary, and culture. During this same year I provided tutoring in French 221 to five student athletes. I worked with them four nights a week to review lessons, answer homework questions, and prepare for upcoming exams. In addition to my experience tutoring and teaching French, I have also served as a volunteer English as a Second Language teacher to adult immigrants in Richmond, VA. I spent the past year working as an English Language Assistant for the French Ministry of Education. My role as a language assistant involved leading small group discussions and creating original, culture and vocabulary-based lessons for English students in a vocational high school and general middle school. During this year I also provided private one-on-one tutoring to a French adult looking to improve his English listening and speaking skills.I enjoy teaching and tutoring because it allows me to share my passion for the French language. I particularly enjoy adapting my instruction to individual learning styles to best meet a student's needs and to see their knowledge of the language progress and expand. Seeing an individual make personal connections with the language and seeing the language take root in an individual's worldview or academic path are the most rewarding aspects of tutoring. For those reasons, I remain extremely dedicated to helping an individual meet their personal goals. At the same time, I recognize that learning a language is not a linear process. Therefore, I remain flexible to experimenting with multiple approaches to see which is the best fit.
I am a native French speaker from Paris, France. I love to share my knowledge and experience of the French language and culture. I have taught and tutored children and adults from introduction to French to more advanced levels and can help you improve your AP Test scores. I have also helped adults prepare themselves for trips to French speaking countries.I believe that communication starts with the correct pronunciation in order to understand and be understood. Therefore I make a point of teaching my students how to correctly pronounce words which can be somewhat difficult for Anglophones. I also emphasize on teaching the language and culture using authentic sources to gain a fuller understanding and appreciation of the various French-speaking countries in the world. When I don't travel to France, I rely on various media to stay in touch with the French culture and current events.I am patient and resourceful and would like to help you succeed!
I am a dedicated, devoted, and creative aide on the path to understanding. Aide consacr, devot, et cratif sur le chemin la comprhension totale. I am a graduate of NYU's Tisch School of the Arts. I have been teaching private students (Voice, Theatre, English, French) and groups (Voice, Theatre, English, French) for over twelve years. I run a non-profit LLC (Trust Your Gut Productions) and am a working actor/composer. One of the most fulfilling things for me is helping those who wish to better themselves and their skill-sets to do so. My affable, professional approach is both fun and effective for my students, who have gone on to Broadway, to move to the States (or to France), and more. -French (Grammar, Conversation, Accent Reduction) -English (Grammar, Conversation, Accent Reduction, Writing) -Music Theory -Vocabulary and Grammar
I am a graduate of NYU's Tisch School of the Arts (Class of '16). I received my Bachelor's of Fine Arts in Dramatic Writing with a focus in Screenwriting. Since graduating, I've tutored international high school students in Shanghai preparing for collegiate success. While I tutor a broad spectrum of subjects, I consider myself an expert in Essay Writing/Editing and related English subjects. I firmly believe in the power of narrative structure and the omnipotence of storytelling techniques in every form of communication. I strive to create stories in my own life by traveling and working all over the world; in the past year, I've worked as a snowboarding instructor in California, a bartender in Shanghai, and a video-game journalist in New York City.
I have tutored on several different accounts, with a range of students. I typically tutor students in math, science, and music, since many students have difficulty understanding their real world applications. I work with the students in how to see the bigger picture of their textbook problems, which then help them remember the details. Knowing why and how these subjects relate to the real world makes them easier, and more fun to learn. I also rely on relating to my student; many times a student will find it comforting to know that their tutor has been tutored. This re-establishes trust, and is encouraging in the sense that everyone needs help at some point. I have been on both sides of the spectrum and have developed an efficient and fun way of teaching students because of that.
I have been a passionate student of foreign languages since the beginning of my academic career. Ever since I was a child, I have held a deep fascination with languages, cultures, and ways of doing things foreign to my own. The fun thing is, the deeper I go into a foreign culture, the more I realize I have so much left to learn and experience. My language skills allow me to travel to far off lands and immerse myself and interact with non-English speakers. Did you know that Mandarin Chinese is the most widely-spoken language in the world, with almost 1 billion speakers across 12 countries? The next most widely-spoken language is Spanish, with around 400 million speakers across 31 countries! The third most-widely spoken language is English, which has over 335 million speakers, and as the modern *lingua franca* for international relations and commerce, is spoken in over 100 countries across the world! With mastery of these three global languages, you will find yourself capable of communicating with an enormous 25% of the entire global population! That's a lot of territory! Once you have the language basics down, there remains only one question to ask yourself: Where do you want to go? I look forward to preparing you for you own adventure
I graduated from New York University in 2008 - even though my degree was in Music Business, after taking some substitute teaching work I realized I enjoyed working with students. I began working full-time as an instructional aide with middle and high school students. I enrolled in Fitchburg State's Masters in Special Education program in 2010 with the goal of becoming a licensed special educator. Students seem to get the most when they ask me about maths and sciences, and now I have a bit of a reputation around my building for having strengths in those subjects.In my mind, working with a student (especially in math) can be something like a game: there's a goal, there's someone to collaborate with, there are strategies to use, and if you let yourself you can have fun doing it. The mindset of curiosity and enthusiasm that comes from a game is powerful when used in a math or science setting. I also make a point of emphasizing thinking actively about different strategies when doing schoolwork, studying, reading, and test-taking. I believe the best student is someone who actively thinks about what they do and whether they can improve, and the best tutor is someone who coaches them to that ability.When I'm not working, I enjoy gaming, making music, and reading.
As a dedicated public high school chemistry teacher, I bring years of hands-on experience helping students master challenging concepts and build confidence in science. I work daily with students of all levels, so I'm deeply familiar with the current high school chemistry curriculum, including Honors and AP content. My goal is to make chemistry meaningful and approachable by connecting it to real-world applications from the food we eat to the technology we use every day. Students describe my teaching style as patient, clear, and encouraging. I believe that every learner can succeed with the right strategies and support. Whether a student needs help preparing for an exam, strengthening foundational skills, or reigniting their excitement for science, I create personalized lessons that meet their needs. I love teaching because it allows me to share my enthusiasm for chemistry and inspire curiosity about the world around us. If you're looking for a tutor who will bring energy, expertise, and practical study tips to every session, I'd be excited to help you reach your goals!
Hello! I am an experienced tutor that's looking forward to working with you! Learning can be tricky and I'm willing to get creative and work with you in whatever way helps you best absorb knowledge. I have a degree in acting and am currently finishing up a degree in Speech-Language Pathology at NYU.
I specialize in test prep (MCAT, LSAT, SAT, etc.), but am equally motivated to tutor in the variety of subjects listed in my profile. After leaving a promising career as an associate at one of the world's most profitable law firms, I am now applying to medical school and working with children and teens as a part-time clinical research associate and patient educator in the field of pediatric asthma at a prestigious academic medical center. Oh, have I mentioned yet that I have discovered the keys to all-around academic improvement?Ok, I'm still a recovering lawyer, so that statement comes with caveats. The skills you need require hard work to develop and the right person to help you cultivate them. I know the material in every area I offer my services and can teach you such material like any other tutor. What makes me unique is my use of whatever subject I'm teaching to foster your capability to learn on your own in the future, to develop abilities that are transferable to any academic subject and even to future careers. Such abilities include:(i) Recognizing relevant issues and facts presented alongside irrelevant ones;(ii) Analyzing potential consequences of changes to complex systems in equilibrium,(iii) Distilling principles from one set of circumstances and understanding how, and when it is appropriate, to apply them to a different set; and(iv) Being able to clearly justify the basis for any conclusion made.It happens to be that those are the exact abilities I myself developed in Harvard Law School and as a lawyer. It may sound a bit abstract to you right now, but it works. I recently talked about my approach to a tenured science professor at Columbia University, telling her that I thought those skills had helped me tremendously to succeed in her infamously difficult class. Her response, "It sounds as if you have your finger on the right issues."I can't guarantee A's or perfect test scores. But with your hard work, I can improve your understanding of the subject matter in which you're looking for help while also building skills that will serve you long after our sessions are complete. I also like to have fun while I work!
I have a B.S. and M.S. in Optics & Applied Physics from the University of Rochester as well as an MBA in Finance from New York University. As part of my graduate studies, I was a teaching assistant for classes in Experimental Optics and Laser Physics, where I led recitations and graded coursework. My career as an engineer right out of college was spent as a scientist on Eastman Kodak's design team working on NASA's Chandra X-Ray orbiting telescope. I switched gears after a few years and entered Wall Street as a researcher and trader for various banks, brokerages, and hedge funds.I am a tutor for the following subjects for both children and adults: Elementary Math, Middle School Math, Algebra (all levels) and Business & Finance. At each place I have worked, it has been part of my job to teach and mentor junior members of our teams. I have always enjoyed this aspect of my duties, and I now have the opportunity to teach on a more formal basis. I believe my differentiating quality as a tutor comes from the fact that I have a vast amount of real-world experience in a number of different fields. As such, I know exactly why different concepts are important to master, beyond just being able to pass tests and how they are used in real life. This is important because I believe it is critical for a student to understand why they are leaning something, and ask, "Why do I need to know how to solve for X?" Without this motivation, learning becomes rote memorization and the interest level falls to the point where learning becomes difficult.I look forward to helping you or your child succeed in learning the concepts they need to succeed both in school and in life.
