I have over 8 years of experience tutoring and teaching English critical reading and composition. It is imperative to me that all my students I work with learn the power of the written word and effect... ive strategies to master their writing skills. I have managed to guide students who had received F’s, D’s, and C’s improve their grades up to B’s and A’s. I am relentless when it comes to ensuring that each student learns and grows in becoming both a better writer and a more critical reader. My expectations are set relatively high; however, I know how to accommodate to each student’s needs as I have over 7 years of experience tutoring students with special education needs. My tutoring in writing also includes guidance in personal statements and college application essays, scholarship application essays, preparation for critical reading and writing tests and verbal reasoning tests, and even dissertations and resumes. read more

Hey there. My name is Jonathan, I live in the Bronx, New York, and I’m an avid reader and writer. I love tutoring because it gives me pride and joy to watch people develop their skills, acquire knowle... dge, and discover their passions for areas that they would not otherwise realize. I am a huge proponent of the Socratic method, and I also wholeheartedly support encouraging and positive reinforcement such as praise to further enhance the learning experience. I am very kind, engaging, and thoughtful regarding my teaching and interactions with students and I look forward to continuing down this path of my tutoring career with you.read more
