- 15 miles
Hello! I am Mark and I love tutoring physics! Physics was always one of those subjects that naturally came to me and is what led me to pursue a bachelors and masters both in Mechanical Engineering. Mechanical Engineering is the most physics based of the engineering disciplines. The underlying physics concepts lay the foundation for classes like Statics and Dynamics, Fluid Mechanics, Thermodynamics, and even Mechanics of Materials. Because of this, my understanding of basic physics is at a lev... Read more

Tutoring is a passion of mine; I love to facilitate learning. But what makes me an effective tutor is not just my passion, but also my personal experience. When I was in college at Northwestern University, I was often on the receiving end of tutoring and I learned that knowledge of a subject alone does not make one a great tutor. The best tutors are compassionate, patient, and dedicated to the success of their students. The best tutors are relatable, and do not become condescending or irr... Read more

I was on the math team at Brooklyn Technical High School where I was fortunate to be taught by some wonderful math educators, Dr. Rich, Mr. Glaubiger and Mr. Klein who were able to not only teach the material but to infect students with their love for the subject. I went on to study Math and Physics at Columbia and eventually received a PhD in Physics at Cornell University, studying under Physics luminaries and memorable teachers, Hans Bethe, and Kenneth Wilson. After working for a short ti... Read more

I love that "light bulb moment†when a student understands a new concept, feels more confident and recognizes that goals are in reach. That’s what has kept me tutoring for over 20 years, and it’s the experience I strive to create for my students! I was a National Merit Finalist in high school. Seven years later, I had my own “light bulb moment†after a Princeton Review prep course. After brushing off my rusty math and formal logic skills, my GRE scores rose to the 99th percentile. In...

I have a Ph.D. in English and Comparative Literature from Columbia and a J.D. from Harvard. I was an English Professor for several years and taught composition at Columbia University, where I also trained new composition instructors. While I was a professor, I was nominated a record-breaking number of times for a campus-wide teaching award.

Rong
Chinese Tutor with PPV (Patient+Peppy=Victory)
I'm Rong, a Chinese, graduated Hunan University of China with a Bachelor's degree in English. I taught a girl English one year before. She's very shy and didn't want to talk with anybody in English. I used lesson plans in which I introduced topics in fun and creative ways. She performed a show in English with her best friend in their school after I taught her several months. I realized every student was different and I should use different ways to teach. Later I tried to apply Teacher Certi... Read more
