Devin
Devin, PhD candidate and passionate educator
I am a PhD candidate at NYU with two years experience teaching at the college level and four years experience private tutoring. What I love most about teaching and tutoring is helping my students develop their own voice and watching as they become increasingly more confident in their own academic abilities. I've worked with students from all backgrounds and experiences from ESL to honors and know how to tailor my methods to individual interests and needs. I have college level experience resea...

Helen
K-4 teacher bridging the gap between home and school
I am currently a fourth grade teacher, teaching reading, writing, math, and social studies. I have taught pre-k, K, second, and now fourth, and I've learned that the secret to student success is learning how to care about your work by making it meaningful to you. The greatest joy of teaching for me is working one on one to help students have their "a-ha" moments. I am patient, and know how to scaffold difficult problems with materials and numbers. I also know that any person can be good a... Read more
Christopher
An Exemplary Tutor Worth the Investment
Hello, I'm Chris! Thank you for your interest in my tutoring work. If your child needs support for catching up, help in building confidence or a challenge for getting ahead, I provide targeted, effective instruction and coaching crafted around each child's unique profile and needs. My work is student-specific and intentionally designed as a short-term intervention, hence my somewhat atypical rate. While I recognize less-expensive options are available, my philosophy of tutoring is that it sho... Read more
Davis
Experienced Editor and LSAT Coach
I studied Politics, Philosophy, and Economics in college and I plan on attending law school in the Fall of 2018. The areas of law that interest me most are Constitutional Law, Legal Philosophy, Antitrust, and Criminal Law. My dream is to one day become a law professor. Teaching is one of my favorite things, because it's both practically useful and intellectually enriching. When I have to explain something, it makes that thing clearer to me. My grasp on it becomes firmer. That's why I'd like ... 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
