Hey there!

I am an engineering graduate from the Cooper Union and an aspiring teacher, with a strong passion to help others achieve great things. Throughout my life, teaching has always come naturally to me. Whether it's patiently showing my grandma how to pronounce English words, breaking down the volleyball serve step-by-step, or helping coworkers understand the problem statement in a group project, I have always been able to express ideas and concepts in simple, but comprehensive...

Hey there!

I am an engineering graduate from the Cooper Union and an aspiring teacher, with a strong passion to help others achieve great things. Throughout my life, teaching has always come naturally to me. Whether it's patiently showing my grandma how to pronounce English words, breaking down the volleyball serve step-by-step, or helping coworkers understand the problem statement in a group project, I have always been able to express ideas and concepts in simple, but comprehensive language.

Since graduating high school, I have amassed 6 years of experience in private tutoring. I have tutored in private homes and apartments, coffee shops, as well as the tutoring center in a private high school. Additionally, I have trained for NYS teaching certification, passed the EAS (Educating All Students) exam, and have two years experience running my own classroom as the head teacher. This has polished my craft immensely, and has given me the flexibility required to adapt my lessons to the learning needs of my students. If you're looking for a fun and immersive one-on-one experience, I'm your guy. If you prefer a slower, deep-dive approach into the content, no problem. Everyone learns differently, but I believe that anyone can do it when given the opportunity.

Great teacher!

Calvin has been an exceptional tutor! My daughter’s practice SATs score for math went up. She feels ready to take retake the SATs. Highly recommend Calvin.
