"Excellent public speaking coach"
- Lisa, Briarcliff Manor, NY on 5/31/14I've been working with Robert for some time. When I first started I was extremely nervous about public speaking and unsure if I could ever improve. Robert gave me insightful feedback about ways to improve. I have learned how to modulate my voice and adjust the pace of my delivery. He also helped me realize what I was already doing well, which has helped improve my confidence. I now regularly give presentations to large groups with minimal nervousness. I would highly recommend Robert to anyone looking to improve their public speaking abilities.
"Great Tutor"
- Mohammad, Hicksville, NY on 10/11/13I just want to say that my son and me have been involved with tutors and law school professors for the past two years and we have not met any one more knowledgeable and ethical than Professor Robert G. He is not one of those tutors who is looking to make money and is looking at your pocket and when the time is up he leaves. He makes sure that the lesson is complete and the student understands the material and he sends assignments on the regular basis and keeps in touch via email. I highly recommend him.
"Very Professional Tutor"
- Diana, Yonkers, NY on 7/27/13Robert is a very reliable tutor. He really puts his time and effort when helping others. He is very helpful providing phrases and suggestions to make the writing more professional, better to read and easy to understand. He is excellent in understanding your ideas and would help you express them in a better way. I strongly recommend Robert as a tutor.
Approved subjects are in bold.
Approved subjects
In most cases, tutors gain approval in a subject by passing a proficiency exam. For some subject areas, like music and art, tutors submit written requests to demonstrate their proficiency to potential students. If a tutor is interested but not yet approved in a subject, the subject will appear in non-bold font. Tutors need to be approved in a subject prior to beginning lessons.
Law
I am a trial attorney and have practiced for almost 10 years in civil litigation in New York City. I have a JD degree from New York University school of Law and have a lot of experience tutoring first year law students in case briefing, and exam analysis.
Philosophy
I have a BA degree in Philosophy and also studied under Ronald Dworkin, Thomas Nagel, and Liam Murphy while I was in law school at New York University. I've substitute taught for undergraduate philosophy classes and have extensive experience tutoring students in philosophy.
Religion
I have a B.A. degree in philosophy, however the course work for this major included many classes in religion including course work in Judaism, Christianity, Theology, the psychology of religion, introduction to religion, Old Testament, the philosophy of religion, etc. I am as proficient in religion I am in philosophy and have enough credits for a minor in religion, however I simply did not declare a minor while in school so it is not an official title. I also continue to study religions well after graduating college.
