If you are looking for someone to help you where others have failed, or if you just want the best, then I'm definitely your tutor. Key focus must be on the student overcoming any mental barriers he/she may have to understanding the subjects. I teach concepts first and test taking second. If you know the concepts, the test results follow, but test taking strategies are also emphasized. I specialize in college level courses but am willing to tutor the highly motivated college-bound high sch... Read more
June
What Do June and Lady Noah Have in Common?
- $80 / h
- Westport , Connecticut ( 06880 )
- 35 miles
Lady Noah knows that there are no prizes for predicting rain - prizes only for building Arks! She learned that from her husband, Noah. My goal in tutoring is the same as hers - to focus on solutions rather than problems. I look for unique solutions that will help each of my students achieve success and build confidence. I try to build a rapport starting with where they are and I use understanding, patience and humor to gain their trust. My unique executive and academic background help ... Read more

"Amy is a fantastic tutor, the best I ever experienced and I plan to continue using her. Amy is more than pleasant and patient. When it took me a while to understand some of the functions, whereby she had to repeat the instructions several times or even explain them in different scenarios, she never made me feel less than. Amy's expertise is more than impressive." - Kathryn P. (Intermediate Powerpoint) In my video production business, I have tutored and mentored many interns and really en... Read more

I have taught elementary and special education for 11 years. I have been teaching the Wilson Reading Program, the Linda Mood Bell and other reading programs to help children decode and comprehend. Being able to teach individually to each child is the key to learning. I can teach math in many ways using different strategies so all students can learn.

I graduated NYU in 2013 with a B.A. in Chemistry. I was a freelance tutor in college and a CPR instructor for the American Heart Association. I love teaching student about chemistry (especially general and organic chemistry). The same gratification I felt when I solved an equation or understood a concept is a feeling I would like to pass onto others. I believe the enthusiasm I have for chemistry would translate into a positive and energetic classroom environment, helping stimulate young minds... Read more

Griffin
SAT; PSAT; English, reading, and writing; K-9 math
- $40 / h
- Weston , Connecticut ( 06883 )
- 35 miles
I was head of my high school's student tutoring program. Extra-help sessions are, in my opinion, essential to how teaching and learning happen. The goal is to understand concepts above and beyond memorizing facts, and understanding concepts involves being able explain them adequately to someone who isn't at the point of comprehension yet. I received a perfect score on my SAT Math subsection as well as on the Math Level 2 SAT Subject Test. Again, I believe a thorough knowledge of the test a... Read more
