Award-Winning AP US History Tutors serving Raleigh-Durham, NC

...education can pay great dividends. I have tutored students from middle school through college-level and had tremendous pleasure of helping over 50 students achieve their potential and dramatically improve their grades and test scores. Seeing the students I have worked with succeed provides me with tremendous satisfaction and drives me to continue tutoring. I specialize in tutoring for standardized tests, including the MCAT, GRE, SAT, and ACT, and have scored in the 99th percentile on...

...I love helping others feel successful in their classes. I have been informally tutoring peers and my younger siblings from a young age, and continue to do so today. In high school, I was recognized as a National Merit Finalist by the College Board for my PSAT and SAT scores. I took nine different AP exams (World History, US History, European History, Physics B, English Lit, English Comp, Biology, Psychology, and Statistics) and thus became...

...I've been speaking French since I was old enough to read and I have a Russian heritage that can help out with colloquialisms and grammar. Languages and linguistics are fascinating to me and I don't get to speak mine enough, so please speak them with me! My physics background, as well as my years of teaching, means I know a disturbing amount of math (through advanced calculus). Yet, I've also been reading since I was...

I later received a Ph.D. in Anthropology from UNC-Chapel Hill where I had a 3 year National Science Fellowship and was awarded the Outstanding Graduate Student award twice.

...a focus on economics at the University of Rochester. I'm interested in tutoring students in mathematics and/or computer science, as I enjoy both subjects thoroughly, and think that a good understanding of those subjects is useful to anyone, no matter their interests. I also do tutoring for AP/IB exams, SAT, and ACT because I think it's critically important for people to get into the best college they can for as cheap as possible, and those...

...about themselves, the world around them, and the things that are important in their lives. I believe that the humanities really do help us be more human with each other and in our world. I teach and tutor with the assumption that school is a set of practices that anyone can learn and that, when they engage those practices diligently, students gain empathy and critical thinking skills that are transferable to all of their endeavors.

I'm passionate about learning and believe that curiosity about the world leads to amazing discoveries. Whether you're struggling with a class, prepping for a major test, or learning about computers and Microsoft, I'm glad to support you. My expertise includes Nursing, Public Health and the health sciences.

...worked with a wide range of students from a wide range of backgrounds. I've spent several years overseas working with non-native English speakers as well. I received my BA from the University of North Carolina at Pembroke and my Master in Curriculum and Instruction from North Carolina State University. I believe tutoring is successful for most students because I am able to customize each session to the needs of an individual; this means instruction is...

...and overwhelming at times. However, I have all kinds of learning and studying strategies prepared for the students. The best part about these strategies is that they can be used for other subjects other than history. My goal is to have the students take these strategies and use them for other classes. Therefore, they can build their confidence, as well as become more independent in their future Studies. I plan to be dedicated to each...

Hey there! My name is Candice and my focus is on Social Studies, specifically Government, Political Science, US History, and Criminal Justice. I am excited to help with any areas you may have trouble in and make it my priority to turn studying into something that can be enjoyable! I don't see any reason why enhancing your education can't be fun for you (and me!)

Hi everyone! My name is Kate, and I have been teaching and tutoring for about 30 years. I have taught preschool through college level students. I enjoy working with students of all ages to help them improve their skills and achieve their goals. I especially enjoy making reading and math a little less mysterious for my students.

I am currently co-authoring a paper on one of the famous logical paradoxes advanced by Zeno. In addition to studying philosophy, I have spent several years studying Ancient Greek and Latin. Prior to entering the doctoral program in philosophy at Penn, I completed a...

I have spent nearly every year since college tutoring in some capacity, including as a volunteer through my current church. I enjoy the challenge of discerning the best way for each particular student to understand and absorb information, and am always thrilled to see when they regain their...

...have been married for fifteen years. We love to travel and explore different parts of the world. My favorite place to spend time is in East Africa. When I am not traveling, I love to SCUBA dive. When I am not factoring equations, I can often be found in a corner reading a great mystery or political thriller. Otherwise, you can find me coaching my son's team at the nearest basketball courts or I can...

I have tutoring experience with all grade levels, including undergraduates, in subjects ranging from english and essay writing to...

...students. In high school I launched a tutoring program for elementary school students. After college I launched a tutoring program at a public school in Washington, DC. While working at Duke University, I mentored students on ways to engage constructively on policy issues. When working with students, I'm continually seeking those "a-ha" moments when students grasp a challenging concept. They now know that concept for life, and can use it as a tool to expand...

I tailor my teaching style to the learning goals. I tend to be focused on an assessment of developmental levels...

I worked with students of all ages and abilities. I also taught community English classes at night. I am fluent in Spanish and love helping other people learn the language. Learning another language well is one of the most useful skills...
