"Interaction between the two serves as an impetus for understanding and motivation for success. Over the years, since began tutoring in high school, I have gained experience tutoring students from Kindergarten-12th grade as well on the college level. I have learned that a tutor is not only a guide, but a friend who helps in the learning process. I am a tutor who understands the way students think and perceive; this assists me in making science and mathematics and reading understandable. My aim is to help students reach their fullest potential and ultimately become mature self-learners. I enjoy working with students of all ages, and ...

" I have been working with children since I was a downhill ski instructor in Minnesota during high school. I believe in multiple teaching styles because each student learns differently and requires various tools to be successful in the classroom. All students have the potential to be great, and its my job to help them to reach their goals!."

"
When I graduated from CSUN, I wasn't quite ready to settle into the "real world." I discovered a great opportunity in Weil Am Rhein, Germany where I taught at an International school. This opportunity provided teaching experience, life experience, and travel experience that I will forever be thankful for. I also tutored multiple different students after school. The families and students from many different countries allowed me to gain an interest in diverse educational systems."

"I was fortunate enough to have a paradigm shift in the way I perceived myself and the world around me and love getting to share the good news with others: people who prefer reading and making music and art can also do great in their other classes, especially when the math and science is presented the right way.
In my free time I like to spin, knit, sew and translate Latin and Old English. I also enjoy comparing the folklore of various cultures, writing music and collecting trivia.."

"My high SAT scores indicate that I have an understanding of the more technical aspects of English such as grammar and vocabulary. This being said, I also exceed in both technical and creative essay writing. Because of these achievements I am also able to teach about the more subtle skills of writing such as tone and style. When it comes to my teaching style, my preference is to establish a partnership with the student so that they feel comfortable with me which enables us to make a process that can be very frustrating and boring into one that is more relaxed and sometimes even fun." ...
