...zoning establishments, despite the historical redlining of neighborhoods, the discriminatory lending practices of financial institutions, the displacement caused by gentrification, white flight, the bankruptcy and corruption of primarily black neighborhoods, and the harsh realities of trickle-down economics.

I am used to gauging the desires of the community...

...course prior to beginning tutoring, in order to certify that I had the appropriate background to provide professional feedback to fellow students on their literary works and projects.

I have also...

...an experienced educator who has taught reading, writing, language conventions and public speaking successfully in three schools. I have a proven track record of moving students from below to above grade level performance in each of these areas. My approach is individualized intervention strategies tied to "real-world" applications of skills.

I have over 13 years of experience teaching Latin, Ancient Greek and related subjects in Classics and Philosophy. My primary pedagogical commitment is to keep things fun, engaging, and vibrationally warm. The word "study" is from the Latin "studium", meaning "enthusiasm" -- so it's all about cultivating that enthusiasm. I also create educational content under the moniker Nathanology (youtube.com/nathanology). My interests include Ancient Greek, Latin, Classics, Philosophy, Ancient Philosophy, Music, Video-Making

...and Information Sciences, so my specialties are in STEM subjects. However, I've also taken AP/College level courses in high school in history, english, psychology, philosophy and others, so I am confident that I can tutor in any subject at least up to a high school level. Another area I am proficient in is SAT/ACT test tutoring. My SAT test scores are 770 in English and 800 in Math, and while I never took an official...

I truly believe that history is fascinating, interesting, and wholly deserving of our attention.

Stewarding student success is an ongoing relationship that has to be nourished as a mutual, goal-based friendship. An absolute strong asset in my continued, mutual success for both my students and myself. I believe in working smarter, not harder for high-end results. I encourage teamwork and lead by example.

...a student perform for a test or even whole course. That's only goal one. I aim for a tutoring environment which generates discussion, and proposes solutions, in which students think critically about the content at hand, ask their own questions, and exercise ways to find their own answers. Learning in this manner allows students to better face future challenges, and think critically about topics in and out of academia. I look forward to working with...

Otherwise, my favorite subject to tutor would definitely be English and Creative Writing.

...types of learning needs. As a history teacher, my work is grounded firmly in literacy and writing. The latter is a skill that many students need assistance with, ranging from mastering a style of academic writing for a specific examination, or bringing an edge to research papers and proposals. During my postgraduate studies at the School of Oriental and African Studies in London, both my historical knowledge and writing skills were tested by a world-class...
