David
Top NYC School Physics Teacher
I love teaching physics. I've been passionate about learning all of the awesome ways in which our universe works, and it has been my goal to help others understand them as well. Physics is a conversation about understanding the world around us. I became a teacher because I love inspiring others in a thought-provoking way, through discussion, demonstration, and experimentation. Whether we're talking about kinematics, energy, or current electricity, I always relate physics to the things tha... Read more

Believe in Your Music
Hey all you prospectives out there! I can’t wait to share my love for music and this great instrument with you. I have over 25 years experience playing gigs as a trumpeter, cornetist, pianist, composer, and bandleader (even as a singer once in a while). I started playing in the San Francisco public schools where I was fortunate in having excellent musicians around me and devoted teachers. I went on to University of Iowa initially as an undergrad admit to the Writers Workshop but also kept up ... Read more

Super cool tutor who is super good at test prep. Loves superlatives.
There are a LOT of tutors on here, and they all seem super smart. In fact, they are! I am also smart, but I took a different path than most of the tutors here. I struggled through school. I'd lose attention in class, forget to hand in homework, and was very uncomfortable asking questions (lest the teachers find out how little I've paid attention!) It turns out, classroom teaching is… not great. You take a smart kid, bore them to death, and then quiz them; they do badly, of course, and then... Read more

Jay
Creative, versatile tutor specializing in test prep and language
Although my career is acting, I have been teaching and tutoring for more than five years now, in areas as free-form and creative as theater education and as goal-oriented and time-sensitive as test prep. I love all kinds of knowledge, right brain and left brain alike. No matter what I'm teaching, my philosophy is to share that joy in knowledge with my students, to provide a sense of confidence and mastery. I want them to love learning, not fear it. In addition to a BA in Theater (Dartmout... Read more
Lee
PhD Scientist / Engineer, I teach "whys" and "hows", not just facts.
After my lessons, kids not initially interested in science have gone on to wanting to go to MIT. I teach biology and computer science to kids and adults in a clear and easily understandable way, by teaching the underlying "whys" and "hows", instead of just the terminology and facts. I'm able to recognize unique 'hold ups' for each student to help them make break throughs in their understanding. I'v taught adults for 2.5 years, and kids for 2.5 years, in class sizes ranging from 2 - 10 stude... Read more
