...come from Holland and moved to Bridgeport, CT in 2004. I graduated from the University of Bridgeport with a Masters Degree in Education and taught at the Bridgeport Hope School as a fifth grade teacher. I was also involved in the after school tutoring program. I am very interested in helping students excel in math (up to pre-Algebra) and language arts. These subjects can be hard, but I will help you be successful in mastering...

...It is because of this that I would love to be able to share my knowledge with others and help them achieve their goals. I believe every student is different and that I have to adjust my approach on a per-student basis. All students learn in different ways, be it visually, analytically or in a number of other different ways. This is important to understand as to help aid him/her in their success. In my...

...experience. In the past, I have worked with students from 4th grade through high school and am sensitive to individual needs and developmental levels, making sure to fit my teaching style to best assist any given student. I also have experience working as a teacher's assistant through a post-grad fellowship program where I worked with professors and students in the classroom for the studio art department at Dartmouth College in 2016. I am excited to...

...help international students from China with improving their English. As a linguist, I understand the challenges of mastering one's first and second languages, which is why I specialize in German and English. Reaching educational goals is something I highly value in myself as well as others. I find tutoring to be a fulfilling and rewarding experience for both parties involved, and I take great pride in enriching students who are struggling with their academic pursuits....

...school entrance exams. I've worked with students of all ages on grade-level studies in math, science, the humanities and foreign languages. Students at top high schools like Stuyvesant and Brooklyn Tech are especially engaging to work with due to the challenging nature of the material and the lively mind of the student. In addition to my own tutoring practice, I've also been director of a non-profit tutoring center. Under my administration we tracked students' scores...

A battle-tested veteran of the New York private school circuit, I graduated college in 2013 and now teach German in DC. I lived in German-speaking Europe for many years, and I majored its language, culture and history. I fully understand the many competing demands on a modern student's schedule. My tutees and I therefore tailor-make lesson plans based on their personal strengths and areas for improvement in order to fully capitalize on our time together.

Though my primary career is as a web developer, I am also an experienced, personable tutor with expertise in a wide variety of subject areas. During my ten years of experience as a teacher and tutor, I've displayed a consistent ability to engage with students to make learning enjoyable and rewarding.... I resolutely favor critical-thinking skills over rote learning. I believe humans have a natural desire and ability to learn, and my experience has shown me...

...extension of my inner (and, to the occasional dismay of friends, outer) thespian. When I stood in front of my first classroom, teaching English during a sweltering Providence summer to ten eight year-olds, I realized that not even my loudest volume could bring order. And so, I began to learn what my teachers throughout schooling had implicitly taught me: listening to and building relationships with students is perhaps the most essential tool in a teacher's...

...I earned a marketing Ph.D. with a thesis about music and brand management and I'm also graduate from Berklee College of Music in songwriting and music production, collaborating with some of the world's finest musicians. In Boston, I built my own creative consulting company, bringing the power of musical thinking to organizations. Through many management consulting projects, I developed a deep understanding of corporate leadership and development. I have worked for a leading think-tank in...

...much knowledge as he can. It is my duty as teacher to make sure that the student masters all the themes that we will work on. For me students are the most valuable humans because through them I learn a lot and I develop my ability to improve in my teaching, so it is my duty to make sure that all my students learn well and use this valuable knowledge in their daily lives.

...If I hadn't met my best friend from Germany, I don't think I would be where I am now. Some people believe there has to be a "reason" to learn a language. But that reason is a better understanding of the world and better communication skills, which we all need in life. I want to help students succeed in this aspect, this way they are able to understand the world in their own way, as...

Being a native german speaker enables me to not only help with grammar and written exercises, but with me you will be able to practice your pronunciation and communication skills as well. I want to help students find their ideal learning style by understanding their individual strengths and unique way of perceiving information. I would love to see if we would be a...

...But right alongside my love for music is my love for languages. Learning another language is much like opening a window to examine and explore another culture, often in brilliant, intimate detail. Of particular interest to me are language studies, language acquisition, and the anthropological and sociopolitical threads that are so beautifully interwoven through the use of words and expression. Besides English, I speak (to varying conversational degrees) Spanish, German, and Japanese. Living in New...

...an undergraduate at Columbia College. I love tutoring students in math, German, SHSAT, and SAT. I believe that I have good communication and pedagogical skills, and a firm understanding of the subject matter. Having come from Germany at the age of eleven, I know the frustration that can come with feeling overwhelmed by coursework. I performed well on standardized exams like the SHSAT and the SAT and can teach test-taking skills that will ultimately lead...

...my advisees on individual papers and tests, and also on how to take their development into their own hands and rise to their full potential.

From there, I went on to tutor for Reading Partners in Milpitas, Villa El Salvador in Peru, and finally my university's Center for Academic Success, where I tutored at the collegiate level. Each experience was completely unique and shaped me into the tutor and...

...the given subject matter and inspire enthusiasm and success. My passion is rooted in though not exclusive to languages, literature, and writing. I tutor all levels of English and German, with a preference for literary and creative genres. One-on-one tutoring presents my ideal teaching scenario: it allows me to provide my undivided attention, to tailor my approach to the student's needs, and to become a supportive and compassionate mentor all around. I strive to engage...

...years for help, and I have provided them with the utmost quality possible. I focus mainly on understanding fundamentals and developing a fluency in mathematics, computer science, German, and Italian. In order to understand complex ideas, one must often break it down into simpler ideas. It is within these simpler ideas that a clear understanding must be made. Often times in the realm of problem solving, many solutions are possible. I encourage the employment of...

...identify how best they learn and help them master their own learning style. I went on to work for another, more individualized company as a lead academic tutor in test prep and multiple subjects.
