Zane Haykal
I didn’t set out to be a tutor. After college, I was whiling away my time delivering flowers and setting up weddings for a local florist. One afternoon, the primary delivery person was out sick, and I was asked to take flowers to a brand new tutoring company around the corner. When I dropped off the arrangement, I also asked for a job, thinking tutoring might be a better fit for me than my minimum-wage, manual labor job. A couple of weeks later, I was the assistant manager of a new tutoring company. After a year, I was a manager and co-owner. Now, seven years after that fateful day, I am the owner of The Tutors along with my brother Faris, and I couldn’t be happier.
It didn’t take me long to realize that I had a knack for tutoring. I love working with students, and I’ve found that I can communicate with kids and parents in a way that bridges gaps between them. My philosophy as a tutor is based on conversation, motivation, and positive reinforcement.
I am a graduate of Memphis University School (2006) where I was the Student Council President. I attended Rollins College and the University of Memphis (2010), where I majored in English with a concentration in Creative Writing and minored in History.
I enjoy playing basketball, watching basketball, and talking about basketball. I am way too proud of being the captain of the defending C-League champions in the MUS Alumni League. Other hobbies include movies, TV, reading, music, and any pop culture I can get my hands on.
Subjects I tutor include English (all), Math through Calculus, History (all), Government, French, Biology, Chemistry, Environmental Science, and Religion. I also tutor the ACT, SAT, PSAT, ISEE, GRE, Praxis, and LSAT.
