...2, Multivariable Calculus, Differential Equations, Linear Algebra, and high school Statistics). Also, I am available to teach high school Chemistry and Organic Chemistry. I have lots of passion to help students learning in different ways. There are 100 learning ways if there are 100 students. I earned my Bachelor of Arts in Applied Mathematical Sciences from University of Connecticut and Master of Arts in Teaching (Secondary Mathematics) from University of Southern California. My main educational...

I am a bilingual educator (English and Japanese) and I am willing to put myself as a candidate to help either elementary students in all subjects or have a Japanese tutoring lesson. I have helped students in the past by helping them in Japanese and conducting lessons for them using Duolingo for them to follow. I also have made my own lesson based on student needs and fulfilling their learning experiences. I love to interact...

...how much I enjoyed interacting with people from different countries and cultures, and also realized I have a passion for learning and teaching languages. I gained experience in tutoring ESL to university students, and I now currently tutor ESL for grades K-12 as a CELTA certified instructor. After my time in Japan, I also worked as a Japanese Language Tutor at Yale University, tutoring high school students in Beginner to Intermediate levels of Japanese. Education...

I am a Princeton University graduate ('19) where I majored in East Asian Studies. My academic interests center around language learning Chinese, Japanese, and Korean as well as history, anthropology, and media studies. I have worked as a college advisor for high school students in the United States and have also taught English in Japan to students of all ages. Beyond these academic interests, I enjoy playing cello and guitar, cooking, reading, and drinking all...

I am a professional tutor, teacher, freelance graphic designer, artist and musician. I approach my students with an openness to their learning styles. I love to study languages--especially Italian, Spanish and Japanese! I tutor in the language arts and computer arts--such as programs like Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, and Indesign.... In my teaching, I am always thinking of the real world application of the subject. If my students cannot use what they have learned in context, then...

...and the culture. Through my learning experience as a TESOL student, I learned a lot about teaching English. Since I learned English as my second language, I know what is difficult to non-native speakers of English well. I chose my undergrad major (Polish studies) because I love Chopin. I've been playing the piano since I was 4 years old, and received several awards at competitions including Silver Award for elementary school grade 3 at the 4th...

...in the fall at Johns Hopkins. I have been tutoring high school students outside of class in college and involved in STEM academics and research mentorship as well as a translation program from and to English outside of class. I speak Japanese and French, and I have taken the PSATs, SATs, 10 APs, and the GREs successfully. I would be willing to help with any of these subjects, with math, science, and languages being more...

...one-on-one sessions, or with a small group. Teaching others is a great way to expand understanding of how other students think and develop ideas, and it allows myself to see new ways to look at problems. While I'm not studying (or helping my friends study), I love to play music (piano, flute, guitar), take a walk through the forest preserve, draw, design/sew clothing, chat with friends, etc. I look forward to contributing to students' learning...

I am a MIT undergrad studying Materials Science and Engineering with minors in Economics and Japanese. I was a TA for Physics II: Electricity and Magnetism at MIT, and I tutored in math and science in high school. I scored a perfect score on the SAT Math section twice, and have taken 11 AP tests with an average score of 4.7. I believe the best way to learn math is through challenging problems, and gaining...

...the philosophy by which I have tutored and 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...

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.

...teacher. I'm super excited to be your ESL, 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...

...write, and tie their shoes, older students attempting 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...

I like literature and performing arts most in life. I tend to incorporate both into classes to blend into textbook work. If you're looking for a more creative approach to language, that's what I provide. I have plenty of books and media that I've used myself to further my own studies.... I believe in going with the flow of nature. One must walk before they can run and crawl before they can walk.... I like to...

...an intensive language and emersion program. During my undergraduate years I tutored students for three semesters and saw how I could gently encourage making the subject “one’s own” in a friendly, supportive way. I’m patient and flexible when it comes to changing my approach based on a student’s particular learning needs. Rather than simply showing my method for solutions, I make note of how students tackle problems, and their thinking gives me guidance concerning strategies...

...to have students think more critically about their own identity, the identities of others, social, cultural, and global issues rather than merely as a subject to read, write, and memorize. My teaching philosophy is centered on encouraging students to use all of their senses in the learning process. I know from professional and personal experiences that experiential learning is critical in order for students to process, retain, and synthesize new information. In Macedonia, for two...

...my studies by enrolling in a Master's program 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...

I am 21 years old. I am from Japan, and have been studying in the US for 3 years. I have been helping students learning Japanese language as a assistant of Japanese classes for a year in Hawaii and Florida.

...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 to feel discouraged or insecure in their lack of understanding. All people have a capacity to learn everything from classical composition to theoretical physics. It's only a matter of perseverance and teamwork between tutors and...
