...passion of mine, rock climbing. I worked as a climbing guide, bringing people from all walks of life into my world and out of their comfort zones. I learned how to gently push people past their fears. I learned how to use a combination of encouragement and technical knowledge to help people reach their goals. I learned how to read people and find the roots of their struggles. Through this, I could discover the best...

...in the learning process. (Telling him to give the other students a chance to answer the question was a good problem to have!) While at the charter school, which was K-8, I also had ample opportunity to substitute teach every grade level, covering pretty much every subject in the Common Core curriculum. Substituting also allowed me to expand upon subjects once the material left by the teacher was completed, allowing students the opportunity to ask...

I enjoy working with young people in general but especially in academics. Helping with study skills is essential. There are times when a focus on learning styles is as important as the curriculum.

...Poetry, History, and Women's Studies. Each of those disciplines are not only interconnected, but also bring forth different understandings of human conditions, social laws, and how language is understood. In my experience with tutoring, I have learned to meet students where they are at to enable them to achieve their academic goals. I encourage questions and honor new modalities of learning. Being a tutor means advocating for the tutees and showing them how to be...

I enjoy helping students de-mystify math by teaching them that it is a language that can be mastered, if they are willing to put in the work.

...students to correct me if they caught my mistake. In college, if a professor turned his back to the class, I couldn't read his lips, which would cause me to miss information. These issues could have caused me to drop out but it didn't. I hope that my experiences can enlighten both children and adults to keep pursuing their education despite their limitations. I have two basic approaches to learning--reading and keep learning about the...

Hello. My goal is to find out what style and method works best for those I tutor, and utilize that knowledge to develop the skills necessary for those I tutor to demonstrate a major improvement in the subject area.

I believe that teaching with, rather than at students, is the best way to improve student outcomes. Learning is not only about memorizing content, but also applying that content. Furthermore, mistakes are opportunities to learn and grow.

...I am a former college instructor who specializes in philosophy, theology, and the history of the classical world. I love dogs, Roman Stoicism, karaoke, and Jane Austen novels (because that Mr. Darcy is such a dream!). My degrees in both English-Writing and Philosophy have helped my students craft essays that are logical, coherent, precise, and eloquent. Never fear, for after a decade of teaching and tutoring, I still have more awesomeness to give!

My students come first. Period. One of my biggest drives in life is to educate, assist, and make the learning process easy and fun for everyone of all ages. Whether you are brand new or just need a refresher in a subject, I will be more than happy to help anyway I can!
