Marc
Award winning Portrait and Landscape Photographer
I have been documenting my life since I was a child on family vacations. I love to travel and meet new people. I graduated from SUNY Purchase in 2008, majoring in photography and minoring in film. I love to teach my students to see the world differently, particularly through a lens. Not only do I teach my students the basics of shooting your own manual photographs first; then we will delve into the importance of color theory, angles, focal length, depth of field and story-telling. I will ... Read more

Art, science... no matter what, don't forget technique.
I am an architect by trade, but architects are supposed to always be influenced by everything. From nature to art to science to sports, I have learned that keeping an open mind (and sometimes thinking too much) lets me be inspired at any moment and constantly grow. At the same time, I do not fall victim to whimsy--I value a strong work ethic and technique. In other words, working on HOW you do something is just as important as the end result. Looking back, my favorite teachers were those who... Read more
Natalie
Experienced and passionate writing and speaking tutor
I have worked as a writing, reading, and speaking tutor, both independently and at my college's writing center, for the past five years. While working at the Mount Holyoke College writing center, I completed a semester-long course that not only taught tutoring methods, but also the pedagogical theories behind the methods. That course, and my subsequent three years of work at the writing center, has informed my current tutoring style. I am passionate about making students feel comfortable whi... Read more
Jake
SAT, ACT, ISEE/SSAT, GMAT, MUSIC THEORY +
I believe that true vocation stems from a unique perspective on real opportunity for change in the world. Life has continually exposed me to inequalities in the education system for both minorities and people with disabilities. The rigid nature of standardized education negatively affects students who don't succeed when exposed to conventional methods. I am committed to broadening the scope of academic measurement, and access to alternative education, to the end that full expression of one’s ... Read more
