SHADMAN H.
Shadman holds a Bachelor of Engineering (B.E.) degree in Mechanical Engineering from the City College of New York (CCNY). As a graduate of NYC’s top public specialized high school, Stuyvesant, and Valedictorian of his engineering university at the Grove School of Engineering at CCNY, Shadman has demonstrated extraordinary success in his educational endeavors. Shadman has taught students (elementary, middle, high school, and college) 1-on-1, in small groups, and in larger classrooms (both online and in-person) for 10+ years. His experience includes teaching all mathematics subjects through high school and early college (pre-algebra, algebra I, algebra II, trigonometry, precalculus, calculus, statistics), standardized test preparation (SHSAT/PSAT/SAT/ACT), and various other STEM subjects. Shadman is extremely passionate about assessing each student’s specific needs and tailoring a custom plan for them to not only succeed in the classroom, but develop a similar love for learning that they can take with them for the rest of their lives.
Tracy S.
Tracy has a B.S. in mathematics at Arkansas State University and a M.S. in Education a Northcentral University.
In her 23 years of teaching algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and calculus, her greatest satisfaction is having former students (especially the ones who struggled) tell her that she was the one teacher who believed in them, and that made all the difference.
Tracy’s approach to tutoring is very similar. She doesn’t just teach math — she teaches students of all ages how to think and reason.
She truly believe that confidence is the key to success — in school and in life. That’s why Tracy always begins each tutoring assignment with an assessment of what each student knows and doesn’t know. She then builds on that information as students go from confusion to confidence, confidence to competence, and competence to mastery.
