Ciro Formisano

My professional journey as an online tutor spans over 10 years, providing specialized, one-on-one instruction across various academic subjects and test preparation, including exams like the SAT and GMAT.

I hold a Master's degree in International Management from the renowned Université Paris Dauphine-PSL in France, and an economics degree from the UK. These academic foundations equip me with a strong analytical toolkit essential for breaking down complex concepts and fostering critical thinking across disciplines, from economics principles to the intricacies of SAT Math and GMAT Quantitative Reasoning. Furthermore, I've lived and taught abroad for 15 years, which has given me a unique and deep understanding of diverse educational systems and the varied needs of students from all over the world. This international perspective is central to my ability to adapt content and strategies, creating truly personalized learning experiences for every student, regardless of the subject.

In my tutoring practice, I specialize in delivering engaging online sessions. I'm skilled in creating customized lesson plans that align with individual learning goals and styles, utilizing digital tools such as Zoom, Google Meet, and Google Classroom to foster an interactive and dynamic learning environment.

A key aspect of my approach involves continuously monitoring your academic performance through targeted assessments and data tracking, providing regular feedback, and collaborating with families to ensure consistent progress. I also guide students through crucial academic milestones like university applications, crafting compelling personal statements, and scholarship essays. My expertise extends to advising on effective study strategies, time management, and advanced test-taking techniques crucial for both general academic success and standardized exams like the SAT and GMAT. I prioritize fostering a strong rapport with students from diverse cultural and linguistic backgrounds, which I find significantly enhances their motivation and engagement in their learning journey.
