Dillon
Nursing Tutor
Hello! I am a PhD/ Nurse Practitioner Student at the University of Rochester and also a Registered Nurse (RN) with a bachelor of sciences degree in nursing and biology (cum laude)! This unique combination of the science and its application may prove helpful to students, especially those in pre nursing programs as well as those currently in a RN program. I have prior teaching experience in Microbiology, General Biology, General Chemistry, and general nursing. One day I hope to advance as a pro... Read more
Toni
Toni, a tutor equally at home in Humanities and Sciences.
Not so long ago the goal of education was to shape the thinking of younger generations so that, with solid background knowledge, they could, in turn, add wisdom to the common store. Since reasoning, interpretative, and problem solving skills are needed across the spectrum, different disciplines were interwoven and 'classics' -that is, the common pool of knowledge that had proved valuable and fertile over time- highly respected and heavily studied. All that has changed, in a misguided effort ... Read more
Isa
PhD Astrophysics candidate tutoring algebra and related math
Hello! My name is Isa (pronounced "eeh-suh"), I am a PhD candidate in my fourth year of the program studying astrophysics. I have a Bachelor's degree in Physics and an Master's degree in Astrophysical Sciences and Technology, and I was a teaching assistant during my undergraduate studies.

I am here to support you if math is your absolute favorite... Read more
Patti
Enthusiastic and Experienced tutor
I have 15+ years of elementary teaching experience. I've taught regular education (3rd/4th), special education (3-6th) and preschool (6 years). I realize that school can be very tough for some kids and it is satisfying to have a child master a difficult concept. Methods depend on the age and topic. I tend to aim to teach a specific skill, through introduction, practice, review and then a game (or song if kids are little). I've tutored both individually and in small groups. I enjoy tutoring s...

David
Experienced music theory, keyboard skills, and music history professor
I have music theory degrees from McGill University and the Eastman School of Music, as well as a master's in organ performance from Houghton College. But it was only after I finished with music school that I started to (slowly) learn how to integrate the practical and theoretical, and I'm now an award-winning composer (Editor's Choice from J.W. Pepper) and performer (for classical organ improvisation in two competitions). I was definitely not a prodigy, and I think the techniques I had to... Read more
David
Experienced History, Writing, and Spanish Tutor
I have worked in Higher Education for a decade at two Ivy League institutions where I counseled hundreds of families on the financial aid process in both English and Spanish. My areas of expertise include FAFSA/CSS profile completion, award letters analysis, exploring loan options, billing questions, appeals for additional aid, and navigating study abroad programs. I also collaborated extensively with my admissions counterparts during the Early and Regular Decision cycles to ensure that st... Read more
Susan
Communications Pro: From Presentations, Interviews & Polished Resumes
Giving presentations can be nerve-wracking, to say the least. 72% of people fear public speaking more than death. Schools recognize this and are helping students gain early experience. My eight-year-old daughter “presented†to her class and select parents. She was so nervous; her hands were shaking. She asked me afterward, “Did you see my hand moving the paper all by itself!†Hopefully, this early exposure will prepare the next generation for confident college and career presentations. And th...

I have two years of substitute teaching experience, grades K-12, including long term placements in math, particularly algebra, pre-calculus, and calculus. I have been tutori... Read more
Ysidore
Award-winning, recently retired teacher/tutor
I have tutored and taught Latin and Ancient Greek to students from 6th grade to adulthood. I have completed all coursework and candidacy exams for a PhD. in Classics at Cornell University. While I was working on my dissertation on Plato's "Meno", I noticed that the area's outstanding academic school was searching for a replacement Latin teacher. I had always enjoyed working with students; I applied, got the job, and never looked back. I enjoyed the next 30 years teaching grades 6-12, from i... Read more
Daryl
Experienced educator committed to your child's success!
Hello! I'm Mr. C! As a student who struggled myself, I am fully aware of the importance of building relationships and connecting with people or in this case, tutoring students! All students need someone that believes in them and can provide what they need to do better. I have been an educator for over 20 years and am passionate about student learning. What I believe is most important about tutoring is finding out the specific needs of students, developing goals with them and the... Read more
