Ryan

College English Tutor • +41 Subjects

I started tutoring at my university writing lab, and found that it was rewarding and sometimes even exciting to help students through their projects. Although my job was to help students with grammar and organization, I often found myself talking to students about the focus of their work and their goals for the assignment. I enjoyed helping students and I carried that interest into a teaching career.I taught English language skills, research skills, history, and politics in China for ten years, mostly at the high school and university levels. In China I was also fortunate enough to serve as the director of studies for an English language high school, which gave me an opportunity to dive deeper into assessments and see how teachers can help students understand just what they’re supposed to do, and how they can encourage students to develop their own interest in their school work. Along the way I completed a US teacher certification course and am (as of July 2016) weeks away from becoming a US certified teacher.I speak and write Mandarin Chinese (although far from perfectly!). Learning a foreign language, especially one so different from English, has been a long-term and ongoing project. One of the most important things I’ve gotten from learning Chinese is a sense of humility and forgiveness. Learning can be hard—and every teacher will tell you it should be challenging. It’s important to give ourselves opportunities to make mistakes, to ask real questions, and to appreciate the advances we make, no matter how small.I look forward to helping more students find and reach their goals.

Sarah

ACT Prep Tutor • +51 Subjects

I am a recent graduate of the University of Pennsylvania, where I majored in mathematics and minored in creative writing and statistics. I tutor math, reading, and writing up to the college level. My favorite subject to tutor is Algebra, because I believe it is the most intuitive area in math, and nothing in teaching brings me more joy than in helping students develop their own sense of intuition towards a subject.I have experience working with students at the elementary, middle school, and high school level in math. This has included creating individualized plans to work with a student's needs, whether they are in need of support with working on assignments or lessons to supplement the curriculum for their level.My tutoring style is focused on putting the student first: making sure that they feel comfortable asking questions, that their needs are understood and respected, and that, as we progress, they are gaining the skills and confidence to tackle any challenges that come their way.

Shaina

Algebra Tutor • +25 Subjects

Hi!Although I am Arizona born and raised, my education includes an NYC law school degree with an undergraduate BS degree from University of Miami. In college I majored in Health Sciences with minors in Psychology and Public Health while in law school I leaned into corporate law and finance. Between law school and college I've pretty much covered every topic under the sun! In my spare time, I enjoy reading (especially mystery novels), pretending I'm a chef, and meditating.I have extensive experience tutoring family and friends at the middle school, high school, and college level in just about every topic, especially math and science courses. As I progressed through law school, my reading and writing skills improved significantly and I've picked up many tricks and tips I wish I could have used in lower school. I have always loved being a student and collaborating with others to make doing homework not only effective but kind of fun! I have an ongoing enthusiasm for learning that I'm so excited to share with you.

ACT Prep Tutor • +31 Subjects

I am an Environmental Biology major and Writing minor. Using my two interests, I find it easiest to help students learn complicated topics by being able to explain them simply and in your own words. I find that this way of learning is the best way to gain a full understanding. Difficult problems often have multiple ways of solving them. Figuring out the best way for each student to solve a problem can make anyone successful. In the near future I plan on attending medical school, and I look forward to helping other students be able to succeed in subjects that I feel passionate about.

Shreeda

ACT English Tutor • +30 Subjects

Dedicated to helping you achieve your goals, I am an experienced tutor who has years' experience as both a student and teacher. I have worked with several students over many K-12 subjects and standardized exams (PSAT, SAT, ACT). My approach is useful for the student for whom shortcuts are just not cutting it they want to actually understand the material. Of course sometimes shortcuts are useful but they are not useful beyond a certain point. You are paying for an exclusive service, so I want to make sure there is enough time for you, as a student, to fulfill goals that are reasonable. Routinely measuring and tracking progress in some controlled sense is essential to goal-based curriculum, such as standardized test preparation.

Jenniffer

Elementary School Tutor • +29 Subjects

I am a passionate teacher and a lifelong learner. I have a zest for education because I've had teachers that have shown me how important it is to work hard and be willing and open to new knowledge and experiences. I believe a teacher should be flexible, accommodating, relatable, prepared, compassionate and kind to her students. If we create a welcoming, safe environment the students feel open to trying new methods and confiding in their teacher about their concerns and struggles. A teacher must always be a students and open to learn and expand and modify their approach. At the end of the day, a teacher must be uplifting and willing to put in the work along with their student. We are a team and with perseverance and hard work we will get to the end result.

Bowie

College English Tutor • +15 Subjects

I am able to tutor for GRE preparation, instruct in grammar and usage in general, and guide students towards success in essay-writing. I received a Bachelor's Degree in Science from Colorado College in 2004, a Master of Arts Degree in Poetics from The New College of California in 2008, and am currently in progress towards a Master's in Literary Studies at Georgia State University. I have served as a Professor of English at Berkeley College, in New Jersey, where I taught classes in Composition and Response to Literature. I have also served as an Education Intern with the National Park Service's Education program at Golden Gate National Recreation Area in San Francisco, where I led education programs for third-grade and sixth-grade students. I currently serve as a Substitute Teacher at The Westminster Schools in Atlanta. In my free time I enjoy writing poetry, running, hiking, and spending time with friends.I approach teaching through a student-centered philosophy--I listen to students' perspectives and help to guide them (using their starting point) toward successful strategies. I aim to make students aware of organizational processes and problem-solving strategies which they use currently, and suggest further strategies to effective writing and problem solving. A student that I tutor will gain not only an answer to the problem of the moment, but an awareness of processes and strategies which will help them to be successful in the future.
