...but a medium with the potential for meaningful and intellectual interactions between writers and readers and the world. My focus on the writing process and the importance of pre-writing, organizing, drafting, and especially revision, helps students see writing as something they can control.

...writing. We can create a customized course to address your learning needs (I.E. heavier focus on reading, specific subject vocabulary, etc).

T.H White once claimed 'Education is experience, and the essence...

...I was lucky enough to study in Abu Dhabi, Florence, and Buenos Aires, and enjoyed seeing more of the Middle East, Europe, and South America. Now that I'm sticking closer to New York City, I'm spending my time doing a lot of cooking and baking, and occasionally painting and drawing, in between exploring what the...

...actively about different strategies when doing schoolwork, studying, reading, and test-taking. I believe the best student is someone who actively thinks about what they do and whether they can improve, and the best tutor is someone who coaches them to that ability.

I've tutored and trained individuals from ten to fifty years of age, based on a broad philosophic focus. Knowledge is the key to financial success and personal achievement in life. I, as the educator, must relate the...

...in Biology, Chemistry, and Mathematics. Most of my students have been college students in need of help with General Chemistry and Organic Chemistry. My teaching style centers on explaining concepts and making students think there way through problems. I find many students are unsure of exactly how to study for Math exams and I believe...

...their journey to academic success. Each student has their own path of least resistance, and helping them find the best way to understand a particular subject paves the way for future excellence in all areas of learning. When I'm not working with students, I enjoy playing classical piano and hiking to all the corners of...

...for literature are the most important tools one needs to carve out a meaningful existence in this life. As Dr. Seuss so aptly put it, “The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you'll go.” When I'm not teaching, I am either reading (surprise!),...

...of the world increases dramatically. More than just adding to the cumulative knowledge of the past, some would say that information is increasing at an exponential rate. Currently, students are being asked to absorb this information; often without a proper structure or guidance as to how this can be accomplished. Having already made this journey...

...in 2009 and obtained my Master's of Science in Public Health Nutrition from Johns Hopkins University in 2013. I am also a Registered & Licensed Nutritionist currently based in Memphis, TN.

...lessons of literature, the surprising quality of metaphors as they paint the picture of the exact message you are communicating through writing, and that the Spanish language is much easier than your native language. Literature, writing and Spanish are not insurmountable; in fact, if you tackle them with the same fervor with which you tackle...

I'm a professional copy-editor and proofreader looking to make supplemental income. I'm very good with language, literature, writing, and speaking. I'm a good tutor because I focus on outcomes -- my last SAT client raised his Verbal score 200 points after I worked with him.

...on a more formal basis. I believe my differentiating quality as a tutor comes from the fact that I have a vast amount of real-world experience in a number of different fields.
