Jamil
Math Expert
Patience, organizational skills, and a thorough understanding of the subject matter are the qualities that make an exceptional tutor. It is also important to be aware of the three most important learning styles - visual, auditory, and kinesthetic. I have been tutoring math for 15 years, and these qualities have set me apart from other math tutors. The courses I tutored included SAT Math, ACT Math, Algebra 1 and 2, Geometry, Trigonometry and Precalculus. In my current job, I develop curric... Read more
Gerry
Physics - Chemistry - Calculus - Trigonometry - Geometry - Algebra
Science and math can be very intimidating for many, many people. Respecting the varied learning styles is key in bridging the gap between an abstract concept and the experience of the student. This takes patient, experienced guidance. If you would like a highly effective, personable, patient, person with an ability to explain abstract material in a clear way then perhaps I can help. I have 10+ years in NYC and Long Island high school, junior high school, and college settings preparing stu... Read more

Dr.
Elite, Internationally-Renowned SAT/GMAT Expert ($550/hour)
I was a Physicist who enjoyed my work. However, while being a Professor at a University, I began taking the SAT and all of the other Standardized Tests every year and getting perfect scores, mostly for fun. I was also tutoring part time, and started to see how much fun it was to work one-on-one with students and help them achieve massive increases. So in 1995 I opened my first Learning Center and quit my day job, and the rest is history. I have written several Test Prep books, continue to... Read more
