New York Tutor Profile: Dramatic Arts major at New York University

Tue, 18 Nov 2008 13:57:32 +0000

Tutor Profile

Sophomore at New York University
Majoring in Dramatic Arts

Gender:
Female

Preferred Subjects
English (Writing), French, German, and Study Skills/Organization

Experience:

Hi, I am an actress who is truly a five year old at heart, with the maturity and responsibility of a forty year old. I love to help others and enjoy being around kids - I am a regular tutor (in French, German, study/organizational skills), babysitter, and children's birthday party entertainer as Cinderella, Hannah Montana, and Mitzy the Christmas Elf! I am constantly trying to find new ways to make work and homework interesting and exciting because I know how hard it can be to stick with it: I am still in school myself and each night of homework must be a new adventure!
I am a fluent French and German speaker with additional Spanish. Writing is one of my strengths, as I scored a perfect 5/5 on the AP English exam, an 800/800 on the writing portion of the SATs, and a 770/800 on the SAT II English exam. My time-management skills are quite up to par, if I may say, and I know how to get and stay organized. Being enrolled as a Drama major with 8 hour studio days 3 days a week and with additional advanced courses in French, German, Theatre Studies, and outside private lessons has helped me to develop into a multi-faceted, ever-ready and energetic tutor!
Alongside working in a retail position steadily for 8 years, I have tutored students in private and classroom settings for many years, as well as taught musical Sunday School, and performed in a touring children's company for 4 years called KIDS 4 KIDS. This troupe performed in Philadelphia area children's hospitals for the cancer and burn unit patients as a gesture of thanks to the hospital that healed one of our own members.
I love kids, I am one of them, and I am here to help!

Hobbies:

I love foreign languages, accents, dialects, horseback riding, yoga, dance (ballet, tap, jazz), singing, acting, reading, writing, playing the piano, listening to music (anything from Broadway to Blues), my favorite authors are Shakespeare and Oscar Wilde

New York Tutor Profile: Accounting and Mathematics major at CUNY-Baruch College

Tutor Profile

Sophomore at CUNY-Baruch College with a 3.58 GPA
Majoring in Accounting, and Mathematics

Gender:
Female

Preferred Subjects
Algebra, Calculus, Pre-Calculus, Trigonometry, and Spanish

Experience:

The first time I tutored was during my freshman year in High School. I peer-tutored freshmen students as well as students outside the school. I decided to tutor because that would count as community service, but I ended up loving it. And so I've been tutoring ever since.
I am currently attending Baruch College, pursuing a major in accounting and a minor in math. I am an A student who regards school work seriously and would like to influence others to do the same. Besides this characteristic, I must add that I am very patient and wouldn't rush through the material unless the student feels confident and ready to move on. I am fluent in Spanish too.

Hobbies:

I'm a tennis player, used to teach little kids to play tennis and had a great time doing it. I practice tennis from time to time with my coach and I always learn something new. Besides sports, I love to dance.
I'm Hispanic/Latino and dancing just flows.
