I have been teaching and tutoring for more than 22 years. Math has always been my favorite subject. I have enjoyed helping students attain a better understanding of math. I am certified to teach mathematics in both Florida and Maryland. I currently have a B.S. and M.S. in Mathematics Education. I have teaching experience ranging from the middle school to the community college level, as well tutoring experience from the elementary school to the community college level. I work very well with everyone. I am very patient and will take my time to make sure all students have complete understanding of the material.

I have a background in applied management, but am working towards becoming a certified teacher. I have experience both as a tutor and also working with children in different settings. I understand how tough certain subjects can be for students since I've been 'that student' myself. For me, my most challenging subject was science. This experience has helped me to recognize the challenges children go through in their education. Furthermore, parents want to help and work so hard, but can easily become overextended while trying to help their children with homework or lessons. This is where I come in! I work directly with children and cater specific teaching methods and strategies to each individual. I think it's important to figure out what makes each student tick and use this to inspire them. It's easy to get frustrated, but together, we can overcome this and achieve your goals!

My goal is to help students cultivate their strengths and find areas of improvement in a safe, affirming environment to nourish their musical and academic gifts.I started my music career playing in the local Chicago punk scene at age 16. After a few years of recording, touring, and writing, I decided to pursue a degree in opera. I spent my first two years of undergrad performing in operas, symphony concerts, and musicals when I felt called to turn my career towards the academy.I was accepted into the honors college and began thesis work on the aesthetic correlations between architect, Frank Lloyd Wright and composer, Ludwig van Beethoven.After being admitted into a research fellowship and pursuing research grants, I applied to Masters and PhD programs in musicology. Music has always been my passion but now, I am able to capitalize on my strengths and interests while still pursing a career in music.Along with my current research, I still sing professional and play as a studio musician in punk, folk, jazz, and metal.My experience allows me to bring the knowledge I have gained from performing and coursework to the classroom with interdisciplinary teaching methods and collaborative approaches. I hope I am able to work with you or your student to cultivate their passion for the arts.

I have truly enjoyed studying the sciences in my college years, and since then have enjoyed even more so to tutor the scientific concepts to others!

I am currently a student at Occidental College in Los Angeles, where I major in Mathematics. I also play for my school's lacrosse team.My teaching method is very thorough. I work alongside my students every step of the way, helping them fully understand concepts.

I recently graduated from the Ohio State University with a Bachelor's in Biology with minors in Bioethics and Medical Pharmacology. I have a passion for teaching and love fun discussion-based classes.

My name is Amanda Geist and this past year I graduated from Boston University, Magna Cum Laude, with a Bachelor of Arts and Sciences in Political Science. I am currently attending Columbia University to complete my Masters Degree in Human Rights Studies.I am extremely passionate about providing quality education to each of my students. I've worked as a tutor for several years across a range of subjects, specifically those of the humanities and social sciences. I plan to utilize my interpersonal communication skills to connect with my students and cater to their individual needs as learners!

I lived in Japan for a year learning about both the culture and the language. By the end of my time there, I was credited by my sense I for having enough knowledge to work within a Japanese company, but not quite enough yet to be considered fluent. I then returned to my original, attending school at the University of North Texas. From there, I graduated with a minor in Japanese, and furthermore became the first person to receive a Japanese Certificate from my university, which acknowledges that I am proficient enough in Japanese to successfully operate at the business and professional level. Since then, I have continued my own personal study and development of the language, in hope of one day becoming fully fluent. In the 3 years in which I have been learning Japanese, I have found that one extremely effective way to solidly and maintain my language skills is through actually teaching the language myself. Although I have only done this with the English language, I have tutoring experience with people of all ages. Most of my past tutoring experience have been with students/young adults, but I also have experience tutoring those far older than myself. Having actually been taught Japanese by Japanese people, and having actually lived and worked part-time while I was there, I do feel that there is a lot more that I can offer (and arguably in much more effective ways) as a tutor than simply just remembering kanji characters.What does a typical tutoring session with me look like? To start off, I typically would like for us to get to know each other a bit better, so that we can figure out what exactly and in what ways you are wanting to progress in Japanese. This also allows me to understand better which types of teaching methods would work best with you. If you are already learning Japanese through your school, then we will mainly work alongside your already assigned topics, or alongside your issued text book, while also incorporating a little bit of information and tips from my own lesson plans. The important thing to note is that I will be very careful not to overloading you with lots of new things to learn from me, while you are also dealing with new lessons from your school's Japanese class. However, if you are not enrolled in your school's class, then typically each meeting will be comprised of us going through a listening, speaking, reading, and writing section, thereby covering a little bit of each part of the language as a whole. Through each section, I will steadily introduce new vocabulary, phrases, grammar points, kanji characters, and even points of interest about the culture. At the end of each lesson, we will briefly review all new material, and I will typically assign homework that requires you to write or talk about something that incorporates some of the new material we just covered. It should be noted that the amount time we spend on one section for each meeting will highly depend on the number of times we meet up each week. With that, it is also important to note that your progress will depend heavily on the amount of time you spend practicing and learning Japanese. Once you have proven to be proficient in basic communication, we will then work towards speaking English only when necessary, and then even further towards only communicating in Japanese. I have personally been taught Japanese by both U.S. and Japanese schools, and I find this method to be undoubtably the most effective way for students to progress in proficiency. We will cover anything and everything from useful kanji, natural expressions, writing and speaking differences, formalities, cultural influxes, and much more. You can be anywhere from beginner to intermediate, so its okay if you only need to strengthen grammar expressions, or or if you are having trouble simply remembering the differences between hiragana and katana. And if you dont know anything, than thats okay too! Because I guarantee, no matter what your level is, you will always leave our lessons having learned and remembered more than one new thing at a time.So, what about my character/personality? I love to learn and meet new people, as well as help out in any way I possibly can. I strive to always progress, and will expect you to at least be open to influencing you to be the same. I am extremely adaptable and understanding, which generally makes it easy for me to recognize where you are and how you feel in any given situation. Im also patient and extremely open-minded, so I will try my absolute best to help you in the most effective ways possible. If for any reason you are just not retaining information, or things are not working out as plan, I will do my best to be as flexible as I can, and figure out new way/methods that are more effective for you! Nothing is more satisfying to me than being able to help someone in a way that makes him/her a better person, and aim honestly believe I will be doing just that by making you more and more proficient in a language other than English. For this reason, I feel I can be a great tutor for essentially anyone and everyone who is willing to come with an open mind, and lots of determination to tackle one of the most difficult languages to learn in the world. If you're still not sold, I strongly encourage you to please message me with any questions or concerns you may have, so that we can work together towards improving your language skills!

Hello! I have worked as a special education teacher in all levels ( elementary thru high school). I tutored many high school students in science subjects during that time as well. Before teaching I was a Educational Assistant for special education where I helped to tutor students once a week after school. I look forward to Working with you!

I am a graduate of the University of Nebraska at Omaha. I studied Mathematics and Physics. I tutor math for both high school and college-age students. I am an academic at heart. I love learning new things both in and out of the classroom. When I'm not helping students, I play video games, watch anime, and run a podcast on youtube.
