Hello all! I am a current graduate student at Stony Brook University pursuing a Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering.

I believe an understanding of these fields are so critical to an understanding of the world around us and our interactions with it. My teaching philosophy focuses on a fundamental understanding of basic concepts. When it comes to mathematics ... Read more

Hi, I am a PhD student at Stony Brook University. I find it fulfilling to try and pique the interest of students who have struggled with math in the past. Since math has always been a passion of mine, I hope that I can help make it more enjoyable for others. I have worked in several teaching roles before; Two years ago I worked as a summer school teacher for the charter school network Uncommon Schools, where I taught an Algebra I class for 8th and 9th graders. I also worked as a physics te... Read more
Kenneth
Specializing in ASVAB, AFQT, AFOQT.
When I am working with a student, young or old, I respect the fact that no two students learn the same way. This is key to quality learning. I have also found that it takes great patience to tutor an individual. While I was a student, I faced various struggles. Most often these struggles were due to boredom. I was often considered advanced while in school but I did not always apply myself. Teachers did not usually take the time to make the class interesting to an advanced student. Consequ... Read more
Walt
Experienced in H.S. Sciences and College 101/201 level Sciences
As a successful tutor I analyze each student's needs and try to determine where they have run into trouble in their particular course. Sometimes I start from the beginning to make sure that they have not misunderstood any of the early material. Without a solid foundation one cannot proceed. For other students I can take them from the point at which they ran into problems and assist in them in moving beyond that point. My Bachelor's degree was conferred by SUNY Oswego and my Master...

Vincent
Math Tutoring - Online and In Person
When I tutor my students, not only do I focus on improving immediate grades. I also do everything I can to help the student understand the material on a deeper level so that their foundation for future topics is strong. As we dive into current material, i often take moments to go over prerequisite concepts. This is important because I will have an idea of exactly where the student stands and what must be done to ensure their success. My students have made leaps and bounds in test scores and h...

I am a State Certified Math Teache... Read more

I love to teach nursing as much as I love nursing. I received my BSN cum laude from Adelphi University over 30 years ago. I passed the first time I took my nursing board examinations (NCLEX). I know that it is very difficult to just take practice exams from a review book. Learning should be fun and relevant, not dull and boring. I believe that the right 1:1 tutor-student relationship is what makes the difference! I teach students to look for "clues" in the questions which helps them nar... Read more
