Caryn
Experienced Elementary Teacher
I have 37 years of teaching experience with primary students. I will be retiring as of June 2017. I still want to be involved and help children learn. A one to one experience would be ideal for me. I am looking forward to focusing in on one student's needs so I can personalize a program just for them. Having taught for 37 years I believe I can provide students with an excellent education. Teaching reading is my strength! I love connecting with a student who can be successful but just ... Read more

Jeff
Former NYC HS Math Teacher - math, computers, history
I'm Jeff and I taught for several years in the NYC high school system as a licensed math teacher. I greatly enjoyed interacting with my students and was pretty successful even in the more difficult subjects of algebra, geometry, and trig. Since students in NYC come from many different backgrounds no one plan or even set of plans could be used. If something I planned didn't click I had to often improvise. For me, whatever worked was what I used and I became adept doing what I needed to get a c... Read more

My strength as a tutor, aside from the fact that I love teaching, is that I am good at explaining concepts so that they are clearly understood. I have a knack for breaking challenges into manageable components, so that even the most reticent student can feel a sense of progress. This has enabled my students to realize success, and I take pride in their accomplishments. I am proud to say that several of my students have gone on to become teachers themselves. My undergraduate st... Read more
