- 15 ratings
- River Edge , New Jersey ( 07661 )
- 10 miles
As a native Chinese speaker, I am fluent in both Mandarin and Cantonese. I have been in America for 25 years. I currently work in accounting, interacting with people of all backgrounds and languages. I love meeting new people, learning new things, and encountering different cultures. My goal is to teach the Chinese language and culture to students. I believe that learning a language is not only about the vocabulary or the phrases but also the meaning and subtext behind it all. Conversely, o... Read more

- River Edge , New Jersey ( 07661 )
- 25 miles
I am a certified math teacher and have tutored all grades of English and Mathematics for five years. I am given to quote a famous dictum of Jaime Escalante: "Calculus does not need to be made easy; it's easy already." Or, as one of my old music teachers, the legendary Eli Fontaine, phrased it, "Everything is easy once you've got it down." I emphasize helping my students build a strong intuitive understanding of the mathematical material they are given. Once these intuitions are put in p... Read more
Anika
ECE teacher and high school tutor
Hi! I'm Anika, and I recently graduated from Northwestern University with a major in psychology and a minor in economics. During college, I interned at a therapeutic preschool in Chicago, which taught me how to work with students with special needs, and also fueled my desire to teach. I went on to teach transitional-kindergarten at a community prep charter school last year, focused on teaching literacy to students, many of whom came in as English Learners. In order to ease the transition to s... Read more
Mark
Experiences Computer Science Tutor (3.5 years)
I am a recent, first generation, Computer Science grad from CUNY Hunter College with a passion for all things software and web development. During my time in academia I had the pleasure of working (3.5 years) at my college's STEM tutoring center as both a CS tutor and a couch. I pride myself on the ability to facilitate algorithmic thinking, code modularity, and conceptual understanding in one-on-one and group interactions. My foundational understanding of object-oriented programming and data... Read more

Ariana
High school and college tutor for all subjects.
I was a music and biology major in college. If you are struggling to understand a subject, I have a unique way of helping. I tutored students with learning disabilities, and helped them become the top 5% of a class where more than 50% of the students failed. In addition to disability, science, and music tutoring, I love helping with reading, grammar, and writing skills. My approach, though includes memorisation techniques, is mainly skill, learning, and understanding based. I will absolutel... Read more
Jamie
Dedicated teacher with over twenty years of experience
- $85 / h
- River Edge , New Jersey ( 07661 )
- 12 miles
I have dedicated my entire professional life to educating students. It is my philosophy that all students have an intelligence that must be uncovered and nurtured. The teacher must understand the way the student perceives his world before that instructor can design lessons that will work for that individual. My approach is to examine and analyze the way your child learns and responds in learning situations. Then, I can design tasks that will connect to your child's style of learning and i... Read more
Will
Patient and Knowledgeable Physics/Calc Tutor with Recent PhD
I taught high school physics and calculus for two years (2015–17) before going to grad school and getting a PhD in nuclear astrophysics. During grad school I also taught introductory physics classes, led small-group tutoring sessions, and tutored students one-on-one. My general approach to teaching is inquiry-based. I like to begin new topics by letting the student approach a question or problem on their own, even if it means getting stuck. Then, I try to thoughtfully guide students toward th... Read more
