Tutor in Brooklyn, New York

My approach to tutoring ultimately breaks down to three principles which I internalized throughout my own education. Firstly, a student must understand what it means to study effectively. Everyone learns slightly differently so it is important that a tutor is able to take the time and understand what techniques work best. Secondly, students must be able to take an exam with strategy in mind. Test taking is a skill that can be honed, and understanding this allowed me to excel in college and graduate school. Lastly, I work to instill a strong sense of academic confidence and pride in everyone whom I tutor. Having the right mindset going into an exam is just as important as understanding the material. I have studied science on an intimate level and am able to simplify the material in my own way so that anyone can understand chemistry and biology. I strongly believe in good study habits and the power of mnemonic devices for remembering important information. I can help struggling students excel through better performance on homework, class projects and exams.
