Cram time for the NY State exams! All learners are welcomed, even if not taking the NY State, because this exam covers the main biology topics at a high school level. Ms. Stephenie is a former New Yorker who has aced all her Regents and taught hundreds of students how to study, practice, review and ace their Regents. She has taught Regents Earth Science, Global History/Studies, Physics, Chemistry, Living Environment, and the math subjects since 2002. In this 3-Day Boot Camp, it will be fast-paced and to the point. Students will practice with 2-3 real NYS Regents exam and learn what their weaknesses are and improve them before the actual test. Students will need to complete the assigned work, provided in the classroom. A printer to print out the assigned exams is highly recommended. Students will need to do their work before the class starts in order to benefit most from the Live classes. Day 1 - Review the first exam provided (should be taken prior to the start of class) in the classroom. Cover learners’ understanding of cells, genetics and ecology. Learners take the second exam on their own before Day 2. Day 2 - Review the second exam provided in the classroom. Cover learners’ understanding of evolution and the human body. Learners take another timed exam on their own before Day 3. Day 3 - Finish reviewing all the exams (details in the classroom). Cover learners’ understanding of the rest of the human body, and assess laboratory skills. Throughout the Boot Camp, test-taking strategies will be reviewed. All questions used in this 3-day cram course are real official questions taken from past NYS exams.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree from Columbia University
Hello!
My name is Ms. Stephenie. I have been teaching various subjects for over 28 years. Although I had a few major career changes, the one thing that never changed was my passion for teaching anyone who wants to learn.
While I have a Biomedical Engineering degree from Columbia University, my students also come to me to learn non-STEM subjects, test taking strategies, music and more.
I have taught basic introduction to advanced levels in various subjects, such as math (Singapore Math, Algebra, Pre-Calc, and etc.), sciences (biology, earth science, chemistry, physics), medical/dental subjects, STEAM/STEM topics, language arts, history, languages (Mandarin Chinese, ESL), test prep (SAT, SSAT, SHSAT, ACT, AP, MCAT, DAT, COGAT/OLSAT, NYS Regents, and etc.), robotics/coding, interviewing skills (former interviewer), public speaking, and music (former competitive piano and violin player) 🎶 . I teach music theory to beginner students of all ages in fun interactive ways and have helped them with their music auditions.
As an Educational Consultant, private admissions consultant, teacher, tutor, a stay-at-home mother, PTO mom, baseball/softball and field hockey Coach, Robotics Coach and Girl Scout Troop Leader, I am passionate in guiding students to try new things, be successful in what they do and to help them accomplish their personal goals, whether it is to learn how to play tennis, or to bake cookies made from scratch, to scoring high on their college admissions exams. I enjoy what I do and always find teaching to be the best part of my day. I also love teaching my own two kids, so I understand what kind of classes kids will enjoy and learn from.
With the current technology and virtual platform, my students come from all over the world. And I also enjoy learning from my students, as not one student is alike and can teach me so much about their culture, interests and experience. There’s always so much to learn from each other. And I strongly encourage the love of learning. So let’s begin this journey together!
I am happy to try to accommodate your busy schedules, so please feel free to reach out if there is a class of interest you would like to attend, and we can work out a schedule together!
I can’t wait to see you in my classrooms!Reviews
