Experience

I earned my undergraduate degree from New York University in cinema studies. While there I also completed the curriculum necessary for entrance into medical school and I'm currently pursuing admission into a medical school. After I completed my bachelor's degree I began working with students in under-resourced schools in Brooklyn. While there I found out just how important it is to be viewed as a leader and to make the effort to motivate all of the students I worked with. This is especially true for those students which face extreme adversity in their personal lives which frequently makes their academic lives that much more challenging. I tutor a broad range of subject areas, but my personal favorites revolve around the fields of math and science. Some of the courses I tutor include algebra 1 & 2, physical science, geometry, pre-algebra, elementary math, middle school math, public speaking, pre-calculus, statistics, trigonometry, anatomy, biology, chemistry, organic chemistry, physical chemistry, physics, physiology, ecology, reading, writing, science, phonics, English, literature, and English grammar and syntax. I also enjoy working with students who are preparing for a standardized exam such as the SAT, MCAT, or PSAT. As I have worked with more students, I have come to fully appreciate that the student's attitude towards learning is frequently a reflection of his teacher's approach to the learning process. I make an effort to make a connection with the students I work with in order to make the learning process as engaging and effective as possible for each one.
