Gooroo tutors are educators and mentors ready to help your child

I love being able to share knowledge and skills with my students, watching them grow and learn so much in the process. When teaching robotics, I make sure our sessions are interactive, making the environment conducive to learning while simultaneously making the student feel comfortable. Not only does this increase the student's confidence but it also helps me get to know them and their learning styles a little better.

Masuma Somji, teaches robotics
Gooroo lets me connect with students that I share common passions with. For example, with one student, I not only helped boost his SAT scores but also worked with him on a short film for his college application. Whether it’s with math, ELA, literature, or French, I always bring my love of learning to what I teach.

Julian Bass-Krueger, teaches vocabulary
I believe a warm and encouraging environment helps students learn best. Every instructional strategy that I employ for my students are highly individualized, tailored to their unique needs in learning. During my three years of teaching experience, many of my students have overcome their challenges, successfully attaining grades of B+ and above.

Akira Wong, teaches biology
Every time I meet a new student my three main goals are always to find the level at which they feel comfortable with the material, engage the parent(s) in the process so they understand what their child is working on, and find ways to motivate the student to get them to want to learn more every session.

James Chapman, teaches physics
My students’ needs are what matter the most to me. I design a plan to meet students’ individual goals. I also adjust my instructional style to fit my students’ interests, learning styles and other special needs.

Joy Dong, teaches ESL
As a student of computer science myself, I know the trials one must go through to understand and ultimately fall in love with the field. It is easy to feel shy in the face of a challenging problem, which is why I push my students to do better than what they think they are capable of in those moments. Gooroo provides insight into how my students learn which greatly aids in the process teaching a student how to think like a computer scientist.

Gooroo has been with us every step of the way, caring about the success of our child—from the first moments of ordinary test prep, to the more challenging time of helping our our son to get back on track academically after suffering concussions. Gooroo cares. This is personal for them.
