...high school Spanish in Iowa. I also spent a summer teaching English to adults in Barcelona, Spain. I would say, however I have the strongest passion for tutoring Spanish because I believe it so important to learn to a second language.

...can feel to need help and have the patience required for one-on-one instruction. I believe with enough time and guidance we can all unlock the potential within, and that sometimes the hardest lessons are our most valuable; therefore, it is vital that we never abandon education.

As a full-time dork, I also love playing board games, video games, reading with my cat and learning about new and interesting ideas...

I am a motivated student, working on his PhD in Mechanical Engineering. I truly enjoy working with students who are interested in the "why's". I love talking about the motivations of why we learn these subjects, and how they become useful in real life. I am particularly passionate about tutoring mathematics, chemistry, heat transfer, and fluid mechanics.

...improved my understanding of "what to write" and "when to write it." My specialties lie within the English field, such as sharing the nuances of grammar and syntax, fine-tuning English papers, or assisting with reading comprehension; however, I never turn down a worthy math problem or shy away from a chance to explore the sciences! I thrive on expert study guides, flashcards, or the effort behind exploring the perfect learning processes needed to excel in...

I tutor a broad range of subjects, but my favorites are math for any grade (all the way up to Calc 2) and reading. I believe an education is critical to a child's development and future, and that it should be fun! I meet my students where they are at and work...

I believe art and design should be a flexible and rewarding experience. Each student has different passions and skills and one size does not fit all. I feel when the techniques and methodology of creating art is acquired, many people can be artists.

...next level. I take into consideration their fluency, accuracy, comprehension, and reading strategies that they employ, and what ones they need to practice. If you can read, you can learn anything! I love teaching math, and making reluctant math students realize their inner math genius! I understand that not all learners learn the same way. I am very willing to teach them more than one way to solve a problem and help them become an...

...a doctoral candidate. I am a student-centered educator. I feel it is important to meet students where they are and provide the scaffolding they need to master a skill. I like to ask my students to challenge themselves, to experiment, and take risks. I ask them not to be afraid of the blank paper in front of them but see it as an opportunity. My favorite subjects to tutor are English (writing and literature), Art...

Instead of dumping loads of mostly useless information on students, I believe we should use a hands-on approach of teaching the what, why, and how of any subject. An intuitive understanding will get you miles further than a shallow perception.

...students and being patient are 2 very important skills to have when working with any student. My past year and a half has consisted of being a team leader for AmeriCorps, where I mentored 5-11 18-24 year olds and worked with 5 different non-profits.

...questions and give feedback as needed. In my experience, students who are open to this feedback--and show an eagerness to grow--are the most rewarding to work with. I believe that written communication is one of the most valuable skills one can master, and that all students, regardless of their past experiences with writing instruction, can become effective communicators of their ideas. I relish the feeling of writing something meaningful and effective, and I hope to...

I'm interested in getting to know students to evaluate how best to accommodate or complement their learning desires and needs. I want to know what makes them apprehensive to or love a subject/topic and how to engage them to advance from where they begin. It should be an exciting journey for both of us! I'm a recently graduate dentist who has a strong writing, science, and math background!

...concepts to the existing framework. I grew up on a small farm with dairy cows, hogs and chickens. We were organic farmers and field work was done with horses, tractors, and with old and modern machinery. Every day farming held a new science lesson. Most often the science was explained by my parents; predicting weather, planting crops, caring for animals, fixing machinery and repairing fences. Through my early experience farming I developed love of wondering...
