Award-Winning History Tutors in Chapel Hill, NC

...not resignation. I've been speaking French since I was old enough to read and I have a Russian heritage that can help out with colloquialisms and grammar. Languages and linguistics are fascinating to me and I don't get to speak mine enough, so please speak them with me! My physics background, as well as my years of teaching, means I know a disturbing amount of math (through advanced calculus). Yet, I've also been reading since...

...a story about themselves, the world around them, and the things that are important in their lives. I believe that the humanities really do help us be more human with each other and in our world.

...the feeling of seeing a student reach a new level. I'm a big fan of designed independent learning, and my experience has taught me that "studying harder" is not always the answer. With each student, I focus first on organization: what we need to cover and a timeline to get to their goal. I'm a physician assistant student at Duke and hope to become a clinic director some day. In spare time outside of school...

...elementary school, very early on I had to learn how to love learning and teach myself. Even after many years of more formal education I haven't lost that spark and that ownership of my education yet! I love tutoring because it allows me to bring people into that same kind of ownership of their knowledge. I love tutoring all sorts of different subjects, but I have the most experience (and maybe the most love) for...

...concentrations in Russian Studies and Global Cinema. What's more important, is that I kept up my interests as a storyteller. I studied journalism for two years, wrote research papers on philosophers, learned how geography and the environment helped determine and develop ancient societies, and I saw how powerful the captured image can be in film and other mediums. During this time, I wrote for the student newspaper; The Daily Tarheel, I was the head-writer for...

All I can say for myself is that I've always had a love of learning, and a love for sharing what I've learned with others. I fundamentally believe that anyone can come to understand any topic or idea so long as it is explained in a way that makes sense to them and is accessible for them. This perspective on learning is what guides me as a tutor.

...worked in scientific research for a bio-science company for 20 years. I believe every student can learn and excel in any educational endeavor they choose.

However, I have been teaching part-time and full-time since my retirement. I love what I do and I fully enjoy the opportunity help students be...
