...elemental as applying their interests to whatever it is they are studying, be it finding literary bits about ancient sport to practice Latin grammar or envisioning the perfect essay in relation to a perfect layer cake.

My passions as a scholar lie in the humanities -- my two...

...after all, it is a human construct and an exact representation can be elusive. Here is a short anecdote, which I usually use tell people to sum up my way of thinking. When I was a child, twiddling my thumbs during a long road trip, I would grab a pen and paper and attempt to draw. I could imagine the details I wanted to create, but the drawing never came out the way I would...

I am confident that my experience and "common core" teaching style can make me an asset to your community/family. When asked for my motto, one must live by, "education must not be taught as one size fits all." In fact, it should be tailored daily to support the needs of the student. Thank...

I am a current certified 7th grade ELA teacher at a New York City Public school. My career started in 2013; however, I have been a tutor since 2010.

...in the Collegiate Scholars Program and my time in college and apply them to the position of College Countdown Instructor. I led a class of forty students in the college application process. We drafted personal statements, conducted informed college searches, and scouted out scholarship applications. It was one of the most rewarding and significant experiences in my life to date and has inspired me to want to work more closely with students to help give...

...Science, Global History and Journalism. Though journalism and writing is my chosen career path, I have a strong foundation in Mathematics and spent much of my school years competing in national and local Math competitions (alongside a brief internship spent at NASA's Kennedy Space Center engaging in robotics design).

I now tutor math for both middle school and high school students, as well as math...

...overseas teaching experience (where my 6-year old students knew very little English), I have a strong ability to communicate in the most basic terms possible, quickly turning complicated problems into solvable ones. A self-identifying nerd, my childhood obsession with Harry Potter has grown into an adulthood obsession. I love to watch TV -- some favorites are the Sopranos, Breaking Bad and Fargo, but I also watch Jeopardy every day to hone my random trivia knowledge....

...and looking forward to visiting those sweet pastry shops of Paris again. I have tutored for about five years now and I enjoy it very much. I took quite a few AP classes in high school, so I understand how fast-paced some classes are and how overwhelming that can be for the student. I believe in spending the extra time to make sure that the student understands the new or difficult concepts so that he/she...

...high school I tutored a number of kids in my hometown, mainly in math. However, I am also able to tutor Spanish, writing, and physics. I think that keeping the student constantly engaged and involved is essential to his or her learning the material well. Actively working through the material and doing practice problems is just as important as understanding the theory behind the subject matter. This is the basis for my tutoring techniques.

...had the pressure of the SATs coming up. I was falling behind despite being a straight A student in my other classes. My friend Pat tutored me for weeks and I got an A. It was this experience that made me realize the importance of additional help and how important it is to share your knowledge with others. I bring this experience with me with every student I tutor and let them know that tutoring...

...confidence, and diligence, as they are the keys to any successful academic pursuit. I begin by gaining students' trust and then take that trust into deeper, more nuanced work.

I have a B.A. in English from the University of Washington, and an M.S. from...
