"When I ran the test-prep program in Missouri, numerous students experienced high levels of success in improving not only their test scores, but also the skills these tests measure. I taught students who started at 25 on the ACT and ended up at 34, but at least as satisfying were those students who started at 14 and eventually achieved 19. More important than such external measurements, however, is the individual student's knowledge that he or she has come into possession of, and internalized, a set of tools useful for further learning. I've edited five books for Duke University Press, and I have also taught college. My students find me ...

"(I am American, so I don’t have an accent!) I’ve completed a teaching methods course and am qualified in all the social sciences such as history, geography, economics, government, and psychology.

"I recently finished an MA in philosophy at the University of Colorado in Boulder. What I loved most about being in graduate school in Boulder was being a Teaching Assistant for introductory philosophy courses. I enjoyed communicating the importance of critical thinking and clear argumentative writing. I also had to chance to display my passion for charting the development and influence of Big Ideas through history.
I am taking classes full-time towards a teaching credential in secondary (7-12) education at Pima Community College."

" My goal as a tutor is to utilize the knowledge and experience I have learned in school to share with my clients.

"I am currently taking a year off in-between my undergraduate coursework and medical school in order to conduct neuroscience research at the University of Arizona's Tucson campus. My diverse background in both the sciences and humanities means that I can tutor a variety of topics ranging from literature to organic chemistry, including the SAT and ACT. I believe I have a talent for communicating ideas and information in various ways to help others learn. I recognized this skill in my junior year of college, when I took non-traditional organic chemistry. This course differed from standard organic chemistry classes in that it was based on ...

"Being able to see a students face when they figure out the subject that they are being taught is one of the greatest experiences available to a teacher. I have always believed that students learn better when being taught by someone who truly loves the subject that they are being taught which is why I believe that, especially in History, I would help a student learn. I dont see history as a dull subject, in fact I have always seen it as alive and well. No matter what anyone studies, to know where to go next one must know what came before them. I have studied abroad in Italy, loving every minute of it, and believe that it made me not only a better student ...

"
I discovered my love for teaching during a year abroad as a Fulbright Scholar in Chile, where I taught group and one-on-one English classes at a university. Since then, I have worked as a Teaching Assistant in grad school and as an English and Spanish instructor here in Tucson. I also have edited and proofread research papers and essays for professors and fellow students, not to mention every member of my extended family.
In addition to English writing and Spanish, I also teach economics, geography, and history."
