I have also worked as an academic coach and curriculum advisor for high school and college students. As a former homeschooled and online schooled student I am personally familiar with the unique challenges of hybrid, online, and in-person learning and will be committed to helping students succeed in any and all of these...

...work as a tutor. As a recipient of a general AA from Clark College and a BA in history from Hillsdale College, and a current graduate student studying Russian history at Stanford University, I have long wanted to make the sharing of knowledge through teaching my profession. The academic areas I am interested in include history, music, literature, religion, and philosophy, but at present I am pursuing an MA in Russian, East European, and Eurasian...

...am a graduate of Washington State University Vancouver with a Bachelor of Arts in Education. I am endorsed in Elementary Education and ELL.

...College. I have experience teaching and tutoring undergraduate students and have volunteered as a high school math tutor. I have a strong interest in most academic subjects but I particularly enjoy tutoring math. I've made extensive use of statistics as part of my research on vision and attention so I'm in a good position to talk about how certain concepts are used in the real world. I'm also a huge bookworm and offer SAT Critical...

...anti-math feelings. I've worked with several children who have IEPs and 504s; as well as having experienced issues with my own children, I understand how difficult working within the system can be on a family. Also, how "neuronormies" can struggle with math and find it overwhelming. As a lifetime learner who originally obtained an AA degree in Behavioral Science (emphasis in Psych.); I went on to attain a BA degree in Speech Communications (emphasis in...

...imagination let’s kids comprehend more completely who they are and who they aspire to be. It’s all about possibilities! My personal teaching style is filled with this positive urgency, humor and energy—“Let’s do it and do it now!” Be it a special education class, a remedial class or a college course, kids apply their knowledge and insights in projects. Ideas are applied to writing, mastery of mathematical processes or performance techniques. Feelings of confidence motivate...

...with a Master of Arts in Teaching. I have been an elementary teacher for 18 years. I love working one-on-one with students to help them understand a concept, gain confidence in a skill, or try out some new strategies. My favorite subject to teach and tutor is Math, but I also enjoy the other elementary subjects as well. I really enjoy finding new ways to reach a student and help them understand a concept.

Life is an adventure and the need to learn - and know how to learn - is the most important skill to have in (my) toolbox. As a teacher, trainer, coach, I strive to help clients grow while helping them learn how to learn, and, most importantly have fun in the process.

...research and effective practices. I have a MA Education and I am a certified Literacy Specialist with English Learner Authorization. I have lived and taught internationally for the past 10 years. Last year, 44% of my students were reading below grade level at the beginning of school, and by the end of the year, 66% were reading above grade level expectations! I want to know your child's interests, motivations, strengths, areas for growth, and how...

...Oregon Institute of Technology in Health Sciences where I graduated with honors. I am a private tutor in English, Science and Math with 20 years experience.

I love teaching, and I've been doing it my whole life. My favorite things to teach are ESL, English, and writing. I also can help you with politics, government, and more. I look forward to working with you!

...and philosophy of mind. However, I have an extensive background in the social sciences, especially political science. Oftentimes, a lack of confidence in their own ability will hold a student back from achieving their goals. I believe that supplementing a student's academic self-esteem leads to their continued and independent success. My ultimate goal as a tutor is to help the student realize the extent of their capabilities by unlocking their potential. Hopefully, in the end,...

I am currently an undergraduate student in college studying engineering. I hope to not only help students better understand their material, but also inspire them to enjoy learning, as I came to really appreciate the intellectual challenge of learning from great teachers and professors, whose roles I seek to embody as much as I can as a tutor.

...about teaching subject matter that not only is personalized for a student's learning needs but also empowers them. I have experience tutoring elementary, middle and high school mathematics. Additionally, I have experience in editing/writing college essays, proofreading and with research (I have conducted research with Emory University School of Medicine, Oregon Health & Science University, NIH/NIDDK and been accepted to a REU by the National Science Foundation). Upon graduation, I will be attending medical school...

...with any form of writing and/or editing. I have an MFA in creative writing from Portland State University and a BA in English from Seattle Pacific University. I recently taught composition (levels 1 and 2) at Northwest Kansas Technical College. The part of teaching I enjoyed the most was working with students one-on-one to give them tips that were specific to their writing voices. If that sounds like the kind of help you need, I'd...

...50-60 years. I graduated from Portland State University with a Bachelor's Degree in Political Science. Language is the catalyst of human thought; without language we cannot link different abstract concepts, and we would have the same brainpower as other animals. That means, by refining your literary skills, you literally expand your mind. That is why I love teaching Reading, Writing, and Literature. I refuse to spoon feed my students information. Instead, I will guide them...

...a joy instead of a burden. I have a masters in design from Carnegie Mellon University and a bachelors in English/Technical Writing and a bachelors in Industrial Design from Auburn University.

Since my early undergrad years when I worked for Reading Recovery at NYU (a place dedicated to...

I finished high school as an AP Scholar with Distinction, an award given by CollegeBoard. I believe that education is at the heart of the American Dream is crucial for our...

...also on the pre-medical track. Growing up, I had difficulty in school understanding concepts in science, which originally dissuaded me from pursuing career in science. However, when I eventually found the right tutors, everything began to make sense to me and I realized how much I enjoyed learning when I could understand the material. It was empowering and I felt proud and confident in myself when the concepts started clicking. Because of my experiences, I...

...When teaching computer science concepts, I am big on drawing pictures and diagrams in order to explain things. I find that thinking about abstract concepts is easier with a concrete spatial representation right in front of me--perhaps you do too! In college I also took many writing-heavy humanities courses, hence I am also available for English tutoring. I treat my tutoring sessions less like lectures and more like casual conversations where the key is good...
