...worked as an instructor and tutor at the high school and college level for the past 9 years, with subjects including test prep (GRE and SAT primarily), EFL education (TOEFL and grammar), writing (admission essays, test-related writing), and multimedia production. Most recently, I've wrapped up a Fulbright post in Bogota, Colombia focused on English writing...

...calculus and algebra. There's just something really satisfying about solving equations. I like to use a visual/practical approach and ask a lot of questions to stimulate the mind of my students. I have 4 teenagers at home and a couple grandkids nearby. Strategy games are my weakness, I can hardly resist playing if asked.

I believe that every student is capable of understanding anything they put their minds to. My goal as a tutor is to give them the tool they need to learn the concept and apply that knowledge to other subjects

...philosophy is relaxed and personalized. In my experience, there are many students who need more than what large classes can provide, either because they need one-on-one time to grasp tricky concepts in a fast moving course, or because they are ahead of the class and want to perfect their assignments, which many instructors simply don't...

...a teacher should be just as willing to learn from the student as the student is from the teacher.

Prior to that, I've worked in both journalistic and teaching/mentoring...

I hope to help increase appreciation for English grammar as a tool for increasing confidence in speaking, writing and reading literature. I can also hope to encourage students studying basic Spanish. I hope to grow professionally as a teacher and a student of life.

...variety of social service settings, mostly with children and young families. I have two small children of my own and enjoy spending time with them and watching them grow. A few activities that I enjoy beyond being a mother are hiking, camping, knitting, reading, writing, playing games of all kinds, going to the coast and...

...for each individual student. I also think using visual applets and allowing the student to grasp an intuitive feel can help the student become an expert test taker. I also enjoy time management strategizing. I have spent my last 4 years as a D1 acrobatics & tumbling college athlete, so I truly feel like a...

...environmental science, but I am interested in almost all subjects. I've travelled the world and lived all over the US, so I can speak to a wide range of natural wonders that I've seen first-hand. I obtained a PhD in Entomology at the University of Florida and received my BS in Biology from the University...

...dumb; they said I was irresponsible, lazy, and unmotivated because the word "slacker" hadn't been coined yet. All of that was untrue but if you are told the same thing all your life, you start to believe it. Over the years still other words were invented. Knowing that I had a "disability" called "Attention Deficit...
