"I just finished 5 years in the Navy, and I'm headed back to Rice University this fall. I graduated from Rice in 2007 and I'll be earning a master's degree in teaching. I love math, but physics and government/history are interesting too! I love teaching in a way that's fun as well as effective - that's the great thing about tutoring; it's as individual as the student!."

" I went on to earn my M.A. in French Literature at Rutgers University, where I caught the teaching bug by tackling all aspects of instruction for two French 101 classes as a Teaching Assistant. My passion for education led me to accrue 7 years experience as a High School French teacher in New Jersey. Through additional experience in one-on-one instruction such as Homebound Instruction and private tutoring work in both French and English, I have grown to treasure the degree of individual attention, immediate feedback, and flexibility of approach that tutoring offers. I love incorporating students' interests into exercises and ...

"My background as an English teacher as well as my MA in Linguistics give me a strong foundation for relating to students with any type of language-based need. This includes areas such as accent reduction, essay and creative writing, reading comprehension, vocabulary learning, and test preparation. In addition, my current work towards my M.Ed in Curriculum and Instruction gives me insight into the best methods to use to achieve student success. My clients have ranged from elementary students who need help with reading comprehension to college students preparing for the GRE. I have taught middle school, high school, and first year ...

"I was home schooled from 3rd grade all the way to graduation in 2005. I attended Lone Star College to complete the core curriculum and transferred to University of Houston - Downtown in Summer 2010. I graduated December 2011 with a Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics.
I love helping others with math and getting a glimpse of how different students learn. Too many times in math courses, students are overloaded with definitions and theorems and sent off to apply them alone."

"With experiences running a tutoring service in Paris, France and working as an instructor at Rice University, Jason is an insighful and passionate tutor who knows how to inspire your child.
There are only two baskets in life: one labelled "mastered" and the other labelled "not yet mastered." I devote my creativity to finding the most efficient way of moving challenges from the second basket to the first--where everything is fun.."

"As an undergraduate, I was a teaching assistant responsible for teaching chemistry and microbiology labs. I believe each student is an individual and I adjust my tutoring style based on what works best for each individual. For example one child may benefit from visual learning while another student may learn best from a more hands on approach such as practice problems. I love helping students understand a concept that they previously struggled with."

" Although I didn't work as a tutor before my undergraduate studies, I began tutoring in my sophomore year of college in the Silicon Valley area. There I worked with students primarily in college essay writing and SAT prep, but I also tutored in English literature, grammar, US history, European history, and biology. I even had a few students interested in learning Latin-- the focus of my Classics major at Stanford! I developed strong ties to the students I've worked with and have sent many a postcard to former tutees while traveling abroad. My greatest pleasure, though, is hearing back from my students, when they email to tell me of their ...

"My high school in Kearney, NE did not have an established tutoring program, but I extended a hand to my teachers and peers to help them with subjects such as Spanish, math, and English. Through these informal tutoring sessions, I realized that the most important goal for a tutor is not merely doing the work for the student, but for the tutor to gently guide the student through the process of dissecting and analyzing problems until the student builds enough confidence in his skills to tackle the problem head-on by himself the next time he confronts it; in some sense, a tutor's goal is to make his job own obsolete. While I will not promise that I ...

"I love word games and friendly competition, I'm a huge news buff, and I adore a well-written book. I first started tutoring as a volunteer at an intermediate school near my university. I worked on every subject, but it's no surprise that literary topics were close to my heart: I love proofing essays so much that I became an Editor of my university's student paper. My pupils learned very quickly that by investing a little time to master a few basic syntactical patterns, they could successfully write with confidence! I like to keep myself busy too -- in high school I was the President of my high school's School of Communication and Public ...
