"Hi, my name is Wesley. Having attended both Stuyvesant High School and MIT, I am available to tutor in a variety of math subjects as well as standardized test prep (see list below).
I have more than 10 years of teaching experience, ranging from a volunteer teacher at the Salvation Army, SCORE! coach, SAT tutor at AIM Academy, and private tutoring with middle school to adult students.
Math has always been my passion, and I tailor my teaching methods to best match each individual student. Most importantly, I will teach a student how to attack the problem and how to think of the solution. Study guides and practice tests in books do not always pinpoint the issue. I will teach you how to approach problems, techniques, timing and approaches that cannot be found in any one single study guide but rather a compilation of years of experience and expertise.
Perhaps what makes me different from other teachers with higher degrees is my ability to relate to students and engage them as a supportive mentor in addition to helping them grasp the material. In fact, some of my students have served in internships and fellowships at non-profit organizations where I work as the Operations Director.
