Carlos
A patient and creative tutor here to help students succeed.
Hello there! Thank you for looking at my profile. I specialize in 3 academic areas: English, Spanish, and math. I have tutored students in these subjects (and more!) since I was in middle school, all the way through the end of my master's program at Stanford University. I tailor my technique to the student, and I build a strong rapport with both student and parent in order to understand the student's context. When it comes to my students, I push my students to be the best they can be, as my p... Read more
Peixuan
artistic mandarin tutor
Because of the independent nature of my art education at the Rhode Island School of Design, the Harvard of art schools, I learned to be self-taught at a lot of things. I am resourceful and a critical thinker; I encourage students to find their own strength and seek power in their shortcomings. I am experienced with multi media such as watercolor, gouache, acrylic and oil painting. I am also knowledgable of tradition technique such as egg tempera. I am a native Mandarin speaker who can write ... Read more

Martin
Professional Language Tutor
Currently writing my PhD thesis in Philosophy, I've tutored and taught languages and mathematics before at High Schools in Sweden, where I was born. My pedagogical approach to teaching languages is that they must be learned both as systems (e.g. verb conjugations, morphology), and activity (e.g. speaking, reading). I have developed a method to do both of these and also combine them, which has been quite successful. This method means that not only do the students generally pass their tests wit... Read more

Sharpen your art!
Hi! Thanks for checking out my profile. I'm an actor, writer, and illustrator in Brooklyn, and I think that being an artist makes you, whether intentional or not, a teacher! Whether one's craft is based on stage, screen, canvas, or any host of musical instruments, an artist's main intent is to communicate an idea - the very essence of teaching. I have coached actors in preparation for school auditions, and helped students wishing to gain more mastery in their skills as an artist. I've vo... Read more

Let me help you make math easier!
I am a passionate math teacher. I've worked as an educator for over 15 years and have taught all of the NY State Regents and Common Core Exams as well as Precalculus. I've tutored sporadically over the years and always enjoy when a student says "that's all I have to do!" after thinking a math problem was too difficult. I love that even though there may be more than one way to solve a problem in math, the route taken leads to the same solution. It just shows that there are multiple ways of ... Read more

Daniel
Experienced, Personable Tutor For Middle/High School/SAT Math
Hey there! I have a Bachelor's degree in Math (& English!), a long history of working with students, and a passion for making seemingly difficult things actually quite simple. In my experience working in middle schools, extracurricular math programs, tutoring programs, and even educational camps for children with PTSD, I've learned one thing in particular: teaching is less about knowing math than knowing your audience. There are countless people well-educated in math - this site is filled... Read more
