I have significant experience in Outdoor Education having served as an Outdoor trip leader and instructor during school. Teaching city kids and non-outdoorsy types how to canoe, sail, or survive a week-long camping trip required me to explain concepts completely foreign to some. I have been given substantial feedback that I teach...

...policy. During the process of earning my graduate degree in chemistry and my undergraduate degree in biochemistry (Mt. Holyoke College), I have had the opportunity to both teach classes and tutor individuals. For me, working with students was one of the most enjoyable parts of graduate school, which is why I'm continuing to tutor even as I branch out into other areas of interest. While I am comfortable working with students in a variety of...

...with a degree in both linguistics and English and a certificate in "Policy Journalism & Media Studies," I enrolled in a two year master's program at the University of Notre Dame. During these two years, I completed my coursework for a master's degree in education while teaching in an under-resourced school in Dallas, Texas. There I taught the skills of effective writing, speaking, and listening to students in grades 6 through 8 in grammar, vocabulary,...

...school career. I began tutoring professionally at the age of 16, and now have over eight years of experience. In college, I taught Spanish three days a week to middle school children, while tutoring in the evenings and weekends.

In this program we taught the children aged from...

...which students work with ventures in St. Louis and travel to different entrepreneurship hubs in the city to meet the founders and hear their stories. I have pursued my love for writing and journalism by becoming a contributor to The Tab, an online news network. I have had eight articles published to date, and I look forward to pursuing a career in journalism. Some fun facts: I was a varsity swimmer during university and specialized...

...sometimes the pressures of school, standardized testing, and college admissions can burn out otherwise excited and energetic young people, and my mission is to help students have fun and genuine learning experiences, while also supporting them to be successful in classes, tests, admissions, and life. This means that in addition to tutoring students for specific subjects and exams, I also enjoy helping students (especially at the beginning of high school and college) plan out their...

...while I am no longer in the classroom full time, I find that the education and counseling I provide to my patients is still the most fulfilling part of my work. I believe personalization, trust, and respect are the most important parts of a successful tutor-student relationship and I work hard to build those with each student I work with. I am most excited about teaching history, social studies, language arts, reading, and writing. In...

...approach to tutoring emphasizes big picture ideas and building a student's sense of intuition. My best professors and teachers have emphasized that it takes more than memorization to be a good learner. Likewise, I try to make students comfortable with the subjects that they learn and help them feel like they're capable of navigating subjects on their own when studying, practicing, or doing homework. Some of my subjects include Economics, English, World History, and Chinese....

I am a super flexible tutor and believe that teaching styles should and can be adapted to every student's needs.

...believe that anyone, with the right tools, can ace a standardized test. My teaching style is to focus briefly on overcoming testing anxiety, start off by learning the best way to tackle problems, and, as for everything, help you "practice, practice, practice" (in testing conditions!). These exams are easier to ace than you think. I keep things stress-free and help my students of all levels stay motivated as their scores rise. I also love to...

...hardest skills to learn in a classroom setting. With our one-on-one time I'm able to get my students to more deeply and personally engage with the material, ultimately resulting in a richer understanding that corresponds directly to improved performance on assessments, essays, and standardized tests (particularly the AP exams). Additionally, I've always been one of those weird people who didn't hate their standardized test experience. As much as anyone can, I enjoy the puzzle of...

...to work together with the student to help them arrive at the correct answer on their own, which I find leads students to be far more likely to remember how to do the problem on test day. I'm very patient and focus heavily on those areas where a student is weakest. When I'm not working, I love to travel, read fiction and nonfiction, play volleyball, watch films, and discover new parts of the city. I...

...masters from James Madison University. I am a certified middle and high school social studies teacher. I have worked with all ages ranging from preschool to university students for the past 5 years. I have teaching experience in World History, US History, and Government.

For now, though, I'm interested in learning more about the foreign policy and national security challenges that face the United States today...

I believe deeply in the power of education as a tool towards justice, and hope to share my love for learning with my students. I am a graduate of Texas Christian University....

...about Psychology, English, and Literature. I strongly support the acquisition of knowledge, as I believe it to be a critical component to success in life and a soul-enriching experience. The importance of education, exploring academic curiosities, and expanding upon areas of interest, are all things that I try to encourage and emphasize with the students I work with. In my spare time, I enjoy exploring state parks with my dog, studying unfamiliar works of literature,...

...subject they are studying. I would ask them to perform a few problems that they should know at the current point in their class. I am able to see their issues by this point. By catching fundamental shortcomings, I am often able to highlight the important points the student should practice and come up with problems on the spot to aid their understanding. 3) The last step is to observe how well they deal with...
