Jessie Y.

Private tutor in New York, NY

Education

I graduated from Cornell University with a double-major in Economics and Asian Studies, minor in International Relations.

Experience

I'm interested in tutoring students of all ages, from pre-school to college, as well as adults. I am fluent in Mandarin Chinese and French. My teaching experience began in high school, when my dad was a teacher at a weekend Chinese school in Westchester County, New York. I substituted for him while he went to China for a few weeks. The students loved me even though I wasn't that much older than them (they were middle school students). After college I spent a year in Beijing and tutored adults in English and Chinese. In 2007 I taught a GRE class (math and verbal) at Baruch College in Manhattan. In 2007 I began working on Wall Street while volunteering after work. Most recently from 2012-2014 I was a volunteer tutor at the Fresh Air Fund in midtown Manhattan, where I worked with inner city middle school students after school on a one-on-one basis (two hour sessions once to twice a week). I tutored in all subjects ranging from Math, English, Social Studies, History, Science and test-preparation.
