Interested in tutoring in NYC? Then you must totally agree that it would be awesome to have a celebrity best friend. Not only would you learn about how a niche industry works, but you’d get all the perks that come with the life of a famous face. What if celebrities were mentors, or even tutors? Receiving SAT tips from Oprah or Tom Cruise would be fascinating (though you might not do too well on the exam). HeyKiki brainstormed a few other celebrities who would make interesting tutors.
Louis C.K.: Sure, he’d make you laugh, but Louis C.K. would be an amazing tutor because he would tell you exactly like it is. If you’re being an arrogant, impatient teenager, the comedian will not hesitate to cut you apart mentally and emotionally. He’d make sure you learned the material without cutting corners.
“What do you mean you didn’t study?”
Meryl Streep: As SNL aptly explains: Meryl is perfect. She will make sure you become the best at whatever she’s tutoring you in. SAT’s? Perfect Score. Football? You’ll be starting quarterback. Meryl for President.
All hail the Queen!
Morgan Freeman: Freeman’s voice is so relaxing, so intense, so immortal that you would listen to every word he said during a tutor lesson. No information would slip by.
Beyonce: Though you might get distracted by her beauty, Beyonce would make a good tutor because of her elegance. We obviously do not know Miss Knowles personally, but she appears to be a patient, sweet, poised individual. Meryl for President, Beyonce for Vice President.
DMX: This rapper is pretty intimidating. Forget his muscles, it’s the voice (and thelyrics) that would make him an, uh, effective teacher. He’d scare you into learning.
