About Adam


Bio

I am a tutor who is well versed in English. I also teach theater, drama and comedy. It is my desire to empower uplift and teach those with a need to learn English everything I have learned. The fact that I am bilingual is very helpful to the Latino young students here in New York city. Sports is something else I am good at, and since I am 6 feet 5 inches, tall I play basketball very well.

I am a tutor who is well versed in English. I also teach theater, drama and comedy. It is my desire to empower uplift and teach those with a need to learn English everything I have learned. The fact that I am bilingual is very helpful to the Latino young students here in New York city. Sports is something else I am good at, and since I am 6 feet 5 inches, tall I play basketball very well.

I am a performing arts teacher. Acting, Drama, comedy and stand up comedy are my specialties. I have been in the Screen Actor's Guild for 8 years. I happen to be very knowledgeable of American history and Biology as well. I can teach students to be comfortable reading aloud. Indeed
it will be my pleasure to help fellow New York students overcome confidence issues with speaking, reading, and writing English. I also want to educate those students who want to pursue a career in acting and theater. I have always been a tutor, or at least since I became a father in 1990. I taught my children how to read classic books such as Goodnight Moon, Caps for Sale, and Where the Wild Things Are. My approach is to be patient and I make learning fun. I smile a lot when I teach and I always make sure the students understand completely before moving on.

I have tutored/ taught in community centers in Queens after school, for a couple of hours in the evening for the past 7 years. I taught chess, speaking in front of a group, English, spelling and phonics. I usually taught elementary school children ages 6 to 11. I also tutored children in my church for about a year, helping the students who struggled with the English language (I spoke in Spanish and English to them). I do not have any certifications or awards, but I love empowering students. I am open to online tutoring as well.

Was kind and knowledgeable

My son was laughing and smiling. He had a good first lesson and Adam was patient and complimentary. He didn’t intimidate in any way so my son enjoyed the session and felt really good about himself and his skills. Thank you, Adam!
