Annalise
Annalise, French Tutor
I am currently a Psychology and French Studies double major at Fordham University-Lincoln Center. I have tutored in both French to English as well as English to French, and rely heavily on my understanding of cognition as a Psychology major to facilitate language-learning. My personal philosophy about language-learning is that mistakes are inevitable, but learning to communicate with people I couldn't otherwise is a reward that transcends the possible awkwardness or faux-pas. I strive to empo... Read more

Native French speaker looking to tutor children and adults alike!
Tutoring is one of the types of activities I enjoy the most.

Through this program, I met with a large variety of students; most of them came from underprivileged background and were eager to learn and get extra help! I would usually tutor my st... Read more
Sheena
English, History, Writing, Essays: Harvard & Columbia Grad tutor
In the challenging environment of New York preparatory schools, even an organized and high-performing student can struggle with juggling the complex demands of heavy workloads as well as extracurricular and athletic activities.

As a person who navigated the demands of elite universities and as the mother of two students who have faced these issues in New York private schools, I u... Read more

Martin
Harvard Grad specializing in Test Prep and Writing!
As a Harvard undergraduate, I worked for nearly three years as a peer tutor at the Bureau of Study Counsel. In this capacity, I met with fellow Harvard undergraduates at least once a week to offer assistance with test preparation, essay writing, study habits and planning, and course material comprehension. I observed with pride the growing confidence of my tutees as, week by week, they asserted their mastery over the challenges through which I guided them, and I am excited to continue in th...

Daniel
Math and English Tutor
I started tutoring when I was in high school in uptown Manhattan. I went to a small private school where my English teacher spent a lot of time teaching us the rules of grammar. My classmates were frustrated, but I loved it! At graduation I was valedictorian of my class and somehow managed to speak in front of a large audience. Not the easiest thing for me! But I was proud to have the opportunity. I went on to college and law school, also in Manhattan, but I've always continued tutori... Read more

Afnan
Fourth year medical student, who loves to teach
I'm a 4th year medical student. I graduated college with magna cum laude and I was the valedictorian of my high school class. My interest grew from having great teachers and mentors. They taught me that just having the knowledge doesn't make one a great tutor. Instead, teaching is an art, which is excelled through proper preparation and experience. I show up to every tutoring session prepared with a lesson plan and practice questions. However, while being prepared is important, I am alwa... Read more
