Jalana

1st Grade Tutor • +59 Subjects

I am a state certified teacher, and have taught all subjects at the elementary level and middle school science. I also served as an after school tutor, and developed differentiated learning for small groups. In addition, I have over six years experience combined teaching at the K-12 and college level. My educational background includes a Bachelors degree in Social Sciences, and a Masters degree in Education from the University of Missouri (MU).My present goal is to work individually with students to help them excel at their academic work. I am certified to tutor online, or can tutor in-person. Subjects I tutor include but are not limited to: Reading; Writing; ACT English & Reading test prep; English Grammar and Mechanics; Vocabulary; ESL/ELL; American History; Geography; Essay editing; Social Studies; and Study Skills & Organization.My experience also includes being an instructor at MU for Health Sciences Seminar and Learning Strategies. The courses included teaching students: study techniques, academic planning, professional development, time management, motivation, campus involvement, stress management and other academic related skills. I was also an academic adviser at MU where I counseled students on selecting a major, creating a four-year plan of study and to pursue internships compatible with their career goals.In addition to subject knowledge, I offer an encouraging and supportive plan of action and customized advising approach to my tutoring. I am also interested in working with students to decide which college is right for them and to help with admission essays. In my spare time I enjoy time with my two cats, working out, photography and painting pottery.

Jennifer Y.

10th Grade Tutor • +81 Subjects

I believe in teaching in the way YOU learn best, whether it be, visual, auditory, tactile/kinesthetic (action-based). With a Bachelor's degree in Speech and Language therapy, I am experienced in providing speech and language related training to aid elementary aged students in attaining developmentally appropriate skills. As a curriculum writer, graphic designer and dance instructor, I work to incorporate every student's strengths and talents into the tutoring sessions. I love to use mnemonics, visual aids, storytelling, drama, flashcards, study games and graphic organizers! I take great joy in helping students succeed. I have been described as warm, patient, calm and caring. I can easily relate to students of all ages and am able to break down complex information. I have worked as an assistant preschool teacher and as a beloved camp counselor for many years.My teaching philosophy is focused on skill building: My goal in tutoring is to give you/your child the skills to be able to work independently outside of the tutoring session, and translate these skills to a classroom environment. I have tutored students in Reading, Writing, Literature, History, Math, Hebrew, Regent's subjects, CLEPs and Photoshop. I have also helped many students in studying for tests, homework, report writing and research. I have experience in working with students with learning disabilities, social/emotional challenges and ADD/ADHD.

Beckett

1st Grade Tutor • +54 Subjects

I graduated from Oberlin College with a Comparative Literature degree and have spent my life pursuing the mental thrill that comes from education, whether I'm learning something or passing it on to others. I have helped a diverse range of people understand subjects from Spanish to drumming, improv comedy to calculus, up to this past year with AmeriCorps when I spent all my time tutoring literacy to struggling elementary schoolers. Through these experiences I've learned how to discover and draw out the strengths that each student brings to the table; how to be sympathetic to students' frustrations while also pushing them to succeed; and how to find new and creative ways to make material resonate with different kinds of brains.I am well-versed in elementary school subjects as well as higher level humanities (especially English, Spanish, writing, SAT prep); I'm most experienced working with elementary schoolers but am also excited to apply the patience, creativity, and flexibility I've developed with them to older students. When I'm not tutoring I'm playing the guitar, making movies, writing novels, and doing whatever other creative activity I can lay my hands on.

Shelia

3rd Grade Tutor • +50 Subjects

I have been in the education field for over 15 years. I love assisting others of all ages in exploring and expanding their learning capacity, which in turn, enriches the quality of their lives. My biggest joy as a teacher is seeing someone come to a full understanding of a concept they could not grasp before. Helping the learner reach those "a-ha" moments is what a teacher does!

Maria

1st Grade Tutor • +73 Subjects

I completed High School in Southern Calabria in Italy, studying Foreign Languages and the Tourism Industry. My love of foreign languages blossomed in High School while studying Latin, Greek, Spanish, French, Italian, English and German. Once I graduated from High School, I attended University at The University of North Carolina at Charlotte, majoring in Business Administration with a concentration in Marketing and Management, with minors in German and Finance. After working one year as a Stock Trader, I pursued my Masters Degree in Fashion Marketing and Merchandising in New York City. These are the degrees I have obtained: Diploma di Maturit delle Imprese Turistiche (Italy), BSBA in Marketing and Management with a minor in German and Finance, Master's of Professional Studies in Fashion Marketing and Merchandising. I have tutored students throughout high school and college, studying German, Italian and Spanish. I have also tutored professional working individuals preparing for business trips to foreign countries. I tutor Italian, German, Spanish and English as a Second Language! I love tutoring foreign languages because there is nothing better than adding enrichment to someone's life! I believe in having fun and thinking outside of the box. There is way more to learning a language than just repeating verbs and phrases; learning a new language is the most exciting journey that you can embark on. My goal is to make it enjoyable, stress-free, and something to look forward to! I won't quit until you get it! I work in Fashion, as a merchandiser for one of the top Off-Price Retailers in the world! With that said, I am very passionate about fashion. I am also very interested in culinary arts. Living in Italy I have learned out to whip up an amazing Italian meal, but I have been working on many Greek and French dishes. So far, I have to say, Greek food is amazing! Lastly, I love music - I attribute learning the majority of my foreign language skills to listening to music!

Adam

10th Grade Tutor • +120 Subjects

I earned a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology from the University of Cincinnati. I plan on attending law school in the near future, but I have always enjoyed teaching. I started tutoring during my junior year of high school, finding that I had an aptitude for analogies that helped students learn the material. I tutor a large variety of subjects, including LSAT, SAT, and ACT. I also tutor various academic subjects, primarily in the fields of math and science. My favorite subject to tutor is Chemistry, followed closely by Physics. I feel that anyone can learn anything as long as it is explained in a way that is conducive to them, and I aim to achieve that in my teaching. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy ultimate frisbee, television, reading, and games of all sorts.

I have a M.A. in Teaching (2011) from Missouri Baptist University.I have been tutoring since 2014. I love the one on one aspect of tutoring a student.The main reason for tutoring is to help a student get from point 'a' to point 'b'. Helping students find the most direct route to success is the first goal in tutoring.
