Recently graduating 20th in my Stuyvesant High School senior class with an un-weighted average of 96.7, I am no stranger to what it takes in order to secure a place at the top and remain there. I have been a freelance tutor for two years now, working with a variety of age groups and explaining a broad range of subjects. In addition, I offer preparatory lessons for standardized tests such as the SHSAT, PSAT, SAT, and most Regents exams. Finally, I am a fluent Russian speaker and feel comfortable explaining most subjects in Russian as well as English if the need ever arises. I am free to travel to any part of Manhattan as well as nearby neighborhoods of the other boroughs. Hourly rates can be negotiable depending on the situation. Feel free to contact me - I will do my best to work out a fair arrangement. Below is a brief review of my credentials:
SAT: 2240 (Reading: 780, Math: 720, Writing: 740)
SAT II World History: 800

Algebra 1

Once you encounter algebra, its there to stay. Subsequently, no matter how far in math you go, variables are always going to pop up sooner or later. Therefore, it's a good idea to have a good base, and Algebra 1 is precisely that starting point. Having taught algebra for more than 2 years now, I could confidently say that I could help any student get up to speed with any curriculum the school throws at him. Furthermore, as we go through the curriculum I will simultaneously prepare the student... Read More

American History

History was consistently my favorite and best subject throughout my school years. Part of the reason why I enjoyed AP U.S. History so much at Stuyvesant was because I had an inspiring teacher who clearly loved the subject and came up with ways to make it interesting by introducing outside sources and information. It is this very approach that I have incorporated into my tutoring - spicing up the often times monotonic textbook with articles, fun facts, and stories. Utilizing my past notes (which... Read More

Chemistry

Having finished college level chemistry with A's and taken AP Chemistry at Stuyvesant, I believe myself to be qualified to teach any aspect of General Chemistry. In addition, I received a 760 score on the Chemistry SAT II Subject Test and can prepare my students for any standardized exam focusing on General Chemistry (including the SAT II and Regents).

European History

History was consistently my favorite and best subject throughout my school years. Receiving a 99 average in my European History class at Stuyvesant and a 100 on the Global History and Geography Regents (of which European History is a part of), I believe I am highly qualified to tutor in this subject. I have kept all of my notes from high school and will do my best to ensure a student exceeds the levels required by his school curriculum and aces any standardized tests. In addition, I can prepare... Read More

Prealgebra

Prealgebra is the first stepping stone into mathematics and a subject I have plenty of experience tutoring. I teach my students to approach problems in clear, effective ways and keep their work organized and neat. My philosophy is - if you don't see the answer right away, draw/write it out! If a student is having difficulty with a certain type of problem, I try to find a way to approach it from a different angle or offer an alternate explanation. If applicable, I always show my students useful... Read More

World History

History was consistently my favorite and best subject throughout my school years. Scoring a perfect 800 on the World History SAT Subject Test and a 100 on the Global History and Geography Regents, I believe I am highly qualified to tutor in this subject. I have kept all of my notes from high school (including those from AP World History) and will do my best to ensure a student exceeds the levels required by his school curriculum and aces any standardized tests.

Elementary Math

Working as a freelance tutor for the past two years, elementary math is the subject I have had the most experience with. Over these two years I have figured out clear and simple techniques to teach any student the basics of mathematics. I will not only make sure the student has a firm hold of the material but will also show him/her shortcuts that will be useful in the future as well as on standardized tests when time is limited.

Elementary Science

Currently a PreMed student, I am no stranger to science. Examining the very processes that govern all of life, science is the broadest subject and is constantly evolving with the discovery of new facts. Elementary science introduces us to the many different areas of scientific study and teaches us to think in terms of the scientific method. As science is a definite comfort zone of mine, I will do my best to provide my students with easy to follow explanations and ways of understanding the material... Read More

Elementary (K-6th)

Working as a freelance tutor for the past 2 years, more than half of my students have been in the K-6th grade age group. A consistent straight A student in elementary school, I consequently aced the admission exams for the middle school and high school that I attended. Always having been a fan of kids, I keep my students at the top of their respective classes and help them exceed statewide standards. I help my students place in the highest percentiles on the NY State Assessments in Math and the... Read More

Study Skills

Graduating 20th in my senior class from Stuyvesant High School was no easy task. I am proud to say that over the years I have developed clear and effective methods of getting my work done in a timely manner as well as balancing studying for a variety of challenging classes. Always being somewhat of a perfectionist, study skills for me are a combination of organization, planning ahead, and creative strategies for learning and memorization. I will do my best to introduce any student to the methods... Read More

Regents

Never receiving anything less than a 95 on any NY Regents that I have ever taken, I believe I can help any student receive a great score in a multitude of subjects. The following is a list of the Regents exams I have experience tutoring and my respective scores on each:
Global History - 100
U.S. History - 100
Spanish Language Regents - 100
Physical Setting/Physics Regents - 98
Living Environment/Biology Regents - 98
Physical Setting/Chemistry Regents - 95
Math... Read More

Social Studies

Incorporating a variety of subjects such as history, geography, and sociology, social studies is a conglomerate usually taught in the lower grades. A long time favorite of mine, this area of study combines the memorization of factual knowledge with literary skills (essays and research papers). Having aced both US and World History Regents as well as receiving a perfect 800 on the World History SAT Subject Test, I consider myself to be highly qualified to teach any angle of Social Studies.
