I am a currently a student at the Villanova School of Business. I have years of experience tutoring (I've helped friends out since 4th grade). I primarily tutor high school math and economics. I try to focus on the concepts of what we are going over, and then applying these concepts to future problems.

I received my Bachelor of Arts degree, with a double major in English and Spanish, as well as a minor in Psychology, from Lawrence University. After graduation, I returned for another year to continue my education, studying Education in their teacher certification program. I completed my student teaching semester at a public high school in Wisconsin, teaching Communication Arts and Creative Writing. Subsequently, I took a job teaching in the inner city of Chicago, at first taking over for a maternity leave as the 5th grade teacher in a self-contained classroom. I stayed on at the school for the following two years, taking on the position of 8th grade homeroom teacher and junior high English teacher. I taught 6th, 7th, and 8th grade Reading, Writing, and Language Arts. I have helped all of my students improve their reading fluency and comprehension, their grammar and writing skills, and even their public speaking confidence. I have helped them develop a voice of self-expression through writing, and have helped them enjoy and connect to a variety of genres of literature. Calling on both my experience and my passions, I tutor the following subjects: English, Essay Editing, Grammar and Mechanics, Literature, Reading, Writing, Test Prep, ACT English, ACT Reading, and ACT Writing.Outside of academia, I love to play with my puppy, practice yoga, go for walks, and paint. I look forward to getting to know what each of my student's interests, passions, and hobbies are, so that I can make the learning more relevant and real for him or her. I believe that making personal connections with learning is the best way to make new knowledge and skills stick as well as to make it a positive experience. For example, I had a group of very disinterested 8th grade boys in my class last year who I inspired to be passionate about poetic techniques. I used their passion for basketball and their passion for rap music, and developed a unit that had them begging for more lessons and acing all of my tests! Learning can be more fun than many people realize! I would love to help you to not only turn your struggles into a success story, but also to find passion and joy in the process as well!

I make every effort to support individual learning by engaging curiosity, purpose, and a person's desire to be his or her own best teacher. Having taught elementary though graduate students for over 19 years, I offer a wide variety of helpful strategies. A lifelong learner, I hope to encourage others to be the same.

I was born in Russia and grew up in NYC where I attended Stuyvesant High School. I graduated Summa Cum Laude from Binghamton University where I majored in mathematics and economics and completed a core group of science courses that were part of the Pre-Medical track. I am currently applying to medical school for admission next fall.I can offer assistance in mathematics, up to the differential equations level, as well as in microeconomics, macroeconomics, biology, chemistry and physics. I have taken advanced coursework in both math and economics and understand which skills and concepts are essential to develop early on in order to succeed in more advanced courses. I have had prior experience tutoring chess to students ranging from elementary school to high school.My grandma was a mathematics teacher back in Russia and her excitement and passion for mathematics helped foster my interest in math and science from an early age. I want to bring the same energy to not only improve my students' test scores but to build their appreciation for the subject matter as well.- Mikhail

I am a graduate of Providence College with a Bachelor's of Science. I am currently enrolled in a graduate program at Lesley University where I am studying Secondary Education. In the fall I will be starting my fourth year as a 9th grade Algebra and Geometry teacher.Prior to teaching, I was a substitute teacher for two years. I started tutoring Algebra this past year; I enjoy working with students one-on-one.I understand that math isn't everyone's best subject, but it can be practiced! Nobody should be categorized as a "math person" or "not a math person," because it is a skill that I can help you acquire. Please let me make math easier for you!

I have taught English for over ten years and am a great teacher! My students enjoy my teaching sessions which not only help them gain new knowledge, but also help them to become life long learners. I believe that education should not be dull and routine but interesting and relevant. We live in a busy world with lots of things going on which can be incorporated into learning. Music, business, movies, books, technology--all have a place in learning English.I truly believe that a good foundation in English can help a person in any area of life he or she wants to pursue. It is my passion to see students grow, explore, and become independent thinkers and good human beings. Becoming a good communicator is one of the ways that can set you on a course of success and I'm here to help!

I am a graduate of both Antioch University New England Graduate School and Earlham College. From these schools, I obtained a M. S. degree in Environmental Studies, with a concentration in Environmental Education, and a B. A. degree in Biology. My teaching work experiences have primarily consisted of doing environmental and informal biological science education classes and field programs for elementary, middle, and high school students at environmental centers, natural history museums, and zoological parks. Topics that I taught include coastal ecology, adaptations of animals and plants, biodiversity, watershed science and conservation. The subjects that I best suited to tutor are biology, life science and environmental sciences. In addition, I enjoying teaching about these subjects because I too am fascinated by the living things and how the living world functions. I believe that teaching any natural science topic is best accomplished through inquiry-based, hands-on learning, conducted through investigative and exploratory lessons and activities. My favorite past-time activities and hobbies include reading of action-adventure sci-fi-based novels as well nature/science books and magazines; nature photography; peaceful nature walks through woods and along the water; bicycling on quiet roads; and occasionally playing tennis.

I love helping students, I became a teacher to be able to reach students of all capabilities. I believe that each student can learn and grow their abilities if they are given an opportunity. I come from a background in Health Care Administration, but changed my career path to become a teacher recently to be able to be a support for students. I currently teach 4th grade - I am comfortable teaching all core content areas, Math, Science, Social Studies, Reading and Writing. My belief is that each student learns differently, it is important to determine the specific needs of each child in order to best support their academic needs.

Professionally certified educator with 11 years of experience at the secondary level holding an M. Ed.

I have a BA in Humanities from the University of Louisville, with specialized studies in French language, Russian Language and Philosophy. I also hold double minors in Russian Studies and Philosophy. I am currently a dual Graduate degree student at the University of Louisville where I am pursuing a Masters in Humanities with a concentration in Civic Leadership and a Juris Doctorate from the Brandeis School of Law. I have an Associate of Arts in Liberal Arts from Ivy Tech Community College. I also spent three years at American Military University where I studied Intelligence Collection and Analysis and Criminal Intelligence. I am a business owner and over the last five years I have been fortunate enough to work in adult education. Through my company I provide, both, individualized and group instruction, as well as, educational presentations and speaking engagements. I recently spent a year as a ESL Instructional Assistant where I taught biology, English and automotive skills to non-English speaking students. I have spent most of my professional life as a small business owner and have worked as a patrol office in law enforcement. I work hard to listen and understand the issues that my students are facing and I try to bring an interesting and engaging perspective to tutoring. In my spare time I enjoy scuba diving, reading, going to the gym, drinking coffee and hanging out with my three cats.
