I am a graduate of the University of California, Berkeley and Duke University. I received my Bachelor's degree in History and my Master's degree in Religious Studies. Since graduation I have tutored students in American History and Biblical Hebrew, which were exceedingly rewarding experiences. I am especially passionate in helping students learn to think critically, and enjoy the process of learning. While I tutor a variety of subjects, I am most enthusiastic about tutoring in History and Writing because these subjects utilize skills that students will use and cultivate throughout their lives and are applicable for many careers. I would describe my teaching philosophy as hands on and project-based learning. I strive to include fun and relevant videos, songs, and activities into my curriculum to ensure the engagement of my students. Outside of academia I like painting, baking, hiking, photography, and having game nights with friends.

I have an early childhood/childhood education degree, with a concentration in humanities from SUNY Cortland. I am working towards my masters in educating students with disabilities B-6 from SUNY Cortland as well!

Through 10 years of teaching at three different colleges, I know that great learning comes through individual advising sessions and conversations that allow students to address their concerns, develop their skills, and work on their goals.

I graduated from The University of Toledo with a Bachelor of Science in Exercise Science and Associate of Applied Science in Cardiovascular Technology. For approximately 8yrs I was the head coach of a high school rowing club. Setting individual and team goals, promoting hard work and team work, and encouraging a positive attitude brought success. The values I tried to teach, allowed a handful of my former athletes to be successful in there rowing career while in college. Upon completing my Associates in Cardiovascular Technology, I have worked at a local hospital for 15 years in the cardiology and vascular department. The hospital I worked at is a clinical site for a local vascular program and we have students who are enrolled in the program, rotate through. It was our duty to not only teach the students how to scan accurately, but to apply the concepts they have learned in the classroom with the ultrasound images they have obtained. I have enjoyed preparing students for the real world and provide them with as many tips as possible in order to succeed. It is truly rewarding to watch students grow professionally.

My name is Kira, and I am currently working towards a degree in Spanish and Dance at Loyola University Chicago.

I have a Bachelor of Arts in History from Holy Cross and an M.B.A. with a concentration in finance from Wake Forest. My primary areas of focus are SAT, Latin, Study Skills and Organization, Critical Reading, Essay Writing, Grammar and Literature. I find out what frustrations students are having and work with them to develop strategies to address their individual needs. In particular, I believe strongly in my writing and critical thinking skills and I believe that I can leverage these strengths to help students improve their own skills. I'm a big sports fan - especially baseball, football and golf - and I love running, reading, history and the movies.

I received my Bachelors degree in English and German as a second/foreign language (course on how to teach German) this year from the University of Bonn in Germany. Right after, I moved to Pittsburgh. During my studies I learned about different kinds of learning methods and different kind of students and the best way to interact with them to give each student a positive and individual learning experience. My motto is: You know a language, when you are able to speak it! Learning about grammar, proper pronunciation and a wide vocabulary will help to build up to it. I have tutored people with all kinds of different cultural background before before and the thing I enjoy most about tutoring is the individuality and personality. You can really get to know you students and build up a schedule based on their personal goals and needs.

I am a graduate of a BSN and MPH program, actively practicing nurse with varied experience within the healthcare field. I received both my Bachelor and Masters degree in Boston, MA. I have previous experience tutoring various subjects including biology, nutrition, Spanish, graphic design and web graphics. I am able to connect with all my students because I understand what it is like to be in their shoes and am very patient helping to achieve positive outcomes from every session.

Teaching is my passion. I enjoy working with students of all ages and am a supportive and caring teacher who loves helping students grow and enjoy learning. I am a National Board Certified teacher and have been teaching for 18 years. I have experience working with middle school, high school, and college students. I have taught middle school English and social studies, high school AP English Language and Composition, and college history courses. I have also worked in university writing centers and am skilled at helping students develop their writing skills.In addition, a passion of mine is working with students to help them develop their executive functioning skills. I love helping students develop effective study habits by teaching them about organization, planning out assignments and due dates, and prioritizing.I also scored very high in the social studies and English Praxis tests and am eager to help others successfully pass these tests as well.But whatever I'm teaching, it's the relationship with my students that is key. My students feel safe and appreciated around me; they feel comfortable taking risks and making mistakestwo habits of mind that are crucial to learning.
