...students for the TOEFL standardized English exam. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about English, Literature, and History. In today's competitive environment, a successful education is of utmost importance to students. Every grade, every score, and every evaluation, could be a pivotal building block of a child's professional future. Knowing this is to understand the seriousness of the educators role in a child's development. I promise to do my...

...a focus on what a student is looking to achieve. In an individualized setting establishing goals with students and then engaging students intellectual curiosity on subject matter to reach these goals. I believe in breaking down the subject into concepts and creating a base of understanding to build upon in grasping the concepts. I have extensive experience with test-prep and how to break-down a standardized test into lesson plans to make target scores attainable.

...and making material as accessible as possible, breaking down what may be difficult subject matter into terms and concepts that they already understand. I firmly believe in the potential of every student to grasp material that they may think is out of reach, and aim to reduce the stress factor of studying as much as possible. Outside of tutoring, I am a professional actor and playwright, and in my free time (a rare, mystical thing...

...the opportunity to provide mentorship and academic support to my brothers. As a tutor at 大象传媒, I strive to provide this same level of support to every one of my students. Math has always been my strongest subject, and I enjoy learning and teaching it. As a Business Economics major at UCLA, I used Calculus to create Economic models in the majority of my courses. As an Investment Banker, I strengthened my understanding of...

...others understand a topic they are struggling with. I feel that the tutor gains as much as the student from the experience. As a tutor, I believe that students will enjoy learning if they understand the material rather than memorize it, so I always strive to clarify the underlying principles and central themes of any topic I am explaining. This also helps the student apply their knowledge independently to other areas, which is the ultimate...

...a doctor), and the SAT (okay, maybe *favorite* is a stretch). I also teach chess, but that's more of a hobby. I also enjoy reading, creative writing, and perfecting the poached egg (the key is vinegar). In my spare time I act, perform improv, and think about how great dogs are. As a tutor, I believe my greatest strength is that I am not a textbook. I'm here to make even the driest material...

...I have worked as a nanny and tutored kids between the ages of three and seventeen, and I feel especially qualified to work with students on the writing and verbal sections of the SAT and editing their personal statements and college essays. As a high schooler, I was one of those students who LOVED standardized tests; I have always viewed them as an exciting way to measure progress and hone in on, not only academic...

...and in one-on-one tutorials. Building off that experience, I will be working for 大象传媒, helping people prepare for the LSAT as well as the SAT and the ACT. I have really enjoyed my experience assisting students in test preparation. In my experience, students first approach tests in an ad hoc fashion, and often with a fair bit of trepidation and hesitancy. I find it tremendously satisfying to help students conquer those initial hurdles and...

...old pre 2016 format and the new post 2016 format, and on both occasions I have scored in the 98th to 99th percentile. I don't start my own MCAT prep with such stellar scores. My self diagnostic MCAT scores tend to fall at or below the 50th percentile. I cannot and will not teach a 'fast' method to significantly improve MCAT scores. I simply do not know one! What I can teach however, is a...

...of college when I offered chemistry tutoring. Throughout my college career I have offered assistance with general biology, general chemistry, biochemistry, and microbiology. As a former student in the busy NYC public school system, I am aware that many students do not succeed fully solely given the limited learning styles used widely in schools. As a tutor I am honored to supplement schoolwork with individualized attention to meet your learning needs and help you succeed!

...academics often just need a role model who can focus on their individual learning style and encourage them to utilize it -- which is who I try to be each day. My goal for my students is for them to see past the challenges and enjoy the process of learning. I have over 2 years' experience tutoring kids in grades K-12 in math, science, English, and test prep, as well as helping fellow college students...

...their courses. In my second year, I joined a club that assisted middle school students in preparing for their state exams. By means of persistence and effective studying techniques and continual practice, I assisted students to successfully complete both their Math and English state exams. Most recently, in 2019, I participated in a STEM summer program where I assisted middle school students to apply basic engineering principles such as prototyping to build various cardboard structures...

...you the scores you need for admission to the college of your choice. As for my experience, I have tutoring experience in both one-to-one settings, going as far back as high school, and group/classroom settings, especially from my 4 years of tutoring with Yale MATHCOUNTS. As a likely future graduate student myself, it is my general goal in life to continue the tradition of passing forth knowledge. Not surprisingly, I have always considered tutoring and...

...with the Wash U Dance Team and exploring St. Louis! I have loved working with children as I taught dance throughout middle school and high school. I began tutoring elementary school students in middle school and continued onto higher grade levels in high school. Tutoring immediately became a positive new way for me to help others. Last year I studied abroad in Copenhagen, Denmark and was able to teach English to middle and high schoolers...
