...experience working one-to-one with students from my position as a Learning Center Writing Consultant where I assisted students in academic writing. By far one of the most rewarding milestones of tutoring is the moment you witness the student satisfied with the achievements you have helped them accomplish. Tutoring is a collaborative process whereby tutor and student work towards a common goal of academic success and achievement. I enjoy tutoring in ESL, Chinese, Writing, and beginner...

...at Tama Art University. Here I studied Typography. Also while attending school in Japan, I worked part time and eventually full time at an English Language school. Upon finishing my Master's, I decided to stay in Japan and pursue my career there and found my first job at Japan's largest advertising agency Dentsu. About a year later, I was later recruited to join Dentsu's sister company The Goal which is a fashion advertising agency. I...

...literature at the secondary level. I have worked for the last year and a half as a tutor of students grades 4th-12th in math, English, reading skills, study skills, and English and reading ACT prep. My specialty in math is in helping students who struggle with the abstract nature of math to understand why the steps are the way they are, and in helping to improve the student's fluency with math vernacular. Because I come...

Hi! I'm Rachel. I have a pretty relaxed teaching style and adapt well to all kinds of students. I really aim for students to understand concepts rather than make great test scores. However, great test scores are a good side effect of understanding concepts better.

...to enter international or American/British high schools and universities, and adults who wanted to brush up or continue to learn more. I enjoy working with students and seeing them learn and make progress. I like to think that learning anything can be fun. It all depends on the approach you take. During my time in Japan, I continued to study Japanese myself, passing the highest level of the Japanese Language Proficiency test. Preparing for the...

...by which I currently tutor. With 4th grade students and with college-age students, with students in America and with students in Japan, I have helped new ideas and information take root and blossom to the satisfaction of student and tutor alike. I love those moments of recognition as someone internalizes knowledge, when an unfamiliar idea becomes familiar, and the creative ability such moments foster. My aim as a tutor is to understand how my students...

...of 2008, with BAs in Japanese and linguistics. While languages and language itself are my first love, I enjoy working in a variety of other subjects as well. As a student and a teacher, I prefer working from the fundamentals to memorizing facts; I feel that understanding how and why something works is a more interesting and effective method, and helps nurture critical thinking, an essential life skill. I look forward to helping students work...

...I specialize in, I love tutoring students in physics (specifically, mechanics and waves). Physics is my favorite subject to tutor because while it is more difficult to demonstrate phenomena from other subjects such as organic chemistry, physics is a very prevalent science, so even by rolling my pencil off of a table, I can easily demonstrate physics concepts to my students. For me, hearing "Oh, that makes so much more sense now!" from the students...

...French, Japanese, or Music Theory tutor! I find that the one-on-one environment of tutoring is truly special because of the tutor-student relationship that can develop over time, and the learning and growth that can happen in such a setting. I love interacting with my students and helping them directly, and I love seeing students meet their learning goals. When I'm not teaching or tutoring, I enjoy singing karaoke, hiking, traveling, photography, and learning languages (currently...

...peers. I also have an intermediate understanding of Korean, and I love helping people understand new concepts in language. I particularly enjoy conversation practice, because I feel the most rewarding part of language learning is being able to use what you learn with others in everyday contexts, which I hope to impart upon my students! When not studying languages or working part-time, I enjoy reading, card games, dance, theatre, and playing viola and ukulele.

...knowledge in settings ranging from academic to business to conversational. Tutoring, if done 'robotically,' can easily become a mere item on the To-Do list; having experienced this myself, I always make sure to challenge and encourage you to a deeper dive into a cultural experience while laying down the basics and details, along with customized lesson plans aimed to achieve your particular goal or level of learning. Thank you in advance for your consideration, and...

...Master's program at NYU in Religious Studies. As a teaching assistant, I had the opportunity to talk to students about their papers and exams, and I discovered that I had a knack for getting people to relax and get into a subject, possibly because I love to tell corny jokes. While earning my PhD at Columbia University, I continued teaching, but I missed the more intimate setting of the small groups and office hours of...

...math courses and topics. Additionally, I have successfully tutored and prepared student for the SAT, ACT, GRE and MCAT. I have a proven track history of higher scores on practice tests and topic mastery. I don't just tutor the subject, I show your student how to maximize time, spot traps and find the right answer quickly. I look forward to work with your student/s to help them achieve any and all educational/professional goals.... Once the student...

...over the world, studying in Tokyo, living in Switzerland and Costa Rica. Not only do I have a love for Biology, but a love for every science. I hope to start a Masters of Science abroad in the following fall. Humans are so lucky to have a capacity for reason, so we can explore the infinite content of the universe. I love to draw out that love for learning in students, even ones who seem...

My students tell me that they are having fun taking my lessons. I was a foreign language...

Went to Arkansas School for Mathematics, Sciences, and Arts. Graduated from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock with bachelors in Mathematics and Computer Science. Current graduate student at UCF. I tutored in high school and undergrad, and I want to eventually become a teacher. Math is something that stuck with me since I moved from Japan to the USA. I truly believe that mathematics is a universal language, which led me to love math.

...that is how I strive to teach. I want to teach you the way you want to be taught. Second, setting goals is an important part of our relationship. This is because goals help you understand what you need to do to achieve them. If getting an A in your algebra class is your goal, perfect, we can set a weekly, achievable goals that helps you get that A by the end of the semester.

Through studying abroad and working overseas on the JET Program for 4 years, I came to love Japanese language, food, and culture. Learning language has been a transformative part of my life, and I hope I can help you reach new horizons as well. Whether you're looking for some quick study help, or have a broader goal in mind, I...

...I had a great time with all of my students, and the pace at which their English ability increased was mind-boggling. I also studied the Japanese language while living there, gaining fluency in both text-book Japanese as well as day-to-day conversational Japanese. After returning from Japan, I had the opportunity to move to China for the remainder of the year and once again teach English as a volunteer. I taught almost exclusively 1st and 2nd...
