I’m a double major in Computer Science and Writing and Rhetoric. So far, I have plans to become a teacher post grad. Although I am a first year college student, I have been tutoring classmates, friends and younger students (around 9-12) for about 3 years. I have never had an opportunity to officially become a tutor, as where I lived did not offer it, so all my experience is volunteer—while it was usually in flux whether or not I would receive any payment. I developed a passion for teaching, a... Read more

I find mathematics to be fun and exciting, which is how I approach each problem. I encourage students to find different methods of finding solutions or answering problems. Real-life examples are used to demonstrate a connection between a student's life and the math they are learning. This is the approach I use in my classroom when I am teaching. I assist students in better understanding each concept by breaking down the mathematical concepts into smaller more precise steps. These steps... Read more

Hello! I graduated with a MA (Hons) in Psychology and Neuroscience from the University of St Andrews. I come from a family of teachers, who instilled in me the value of fitting my lessons to the student, not to a pre-determined plan. I know that the teachers that I thrived under were thoughtful, patient, creative, and hardworking, and those are the values that I try to bring to my sessions. I would love to have a free consultation in which I work with you as a student to determine what you wi... Read more
Johnny
College Writing Tutor with specialty in Film and Literature analysis.
I recently graduated from Manhattanville College with a BA in Communications and Media and a minor in Film. Starting my sophomore year in 2020, I began an internship with the writing center on campus and was learning tutoring pedagogy so that I could work in the writing center as a tutor myself. That next semester, I held a paid position as a Peer Writing Tutor until my graduation this May (2023). Over my time as a tutor, I assisted students generally in a virtual one-on-one environment.
