Algebra Tutor • +40 Subjects

My philosophy as amathematics tutorconsists of two imperatives: content knowledge and communication. I do not believe someone can successfully explain a subject without first having a deep and thorough understanding of the subject themself. However, someone can have all the knowledge in the world, but it would be useless if they could not patiently and efficiently instruct others. When it comes to math tutoring, I am particularly qualified in both regards.In June, I graduated summa cum laude inMathematicsfrom the Honors College at the University of Oregon (GPA: 4.02). In my education, I studied both a broad and deep mathematical curriculum, received a fellowship to conductmathematical research in knot theory, and acedCalculus7 (...just kidding about that last one). I have taken several graduate-levelmathcourses and plan on continuing my academics by earning a Ph.D. inmatheducation. (If it's not obvious, I have a thing formath.)I was amathtutorat my university for three years. I tutored education majors taking a rigorous mathematics content course. So not only did Itutormath, but I tutored for a course designed to provide students with the knowledge to be effective teachers. This has equipped me with the necessary pedagogical understanding to patiently and knowledgeably explain complicated subjects in easy-to-grasp terms.In short, I am atutorwho knows what I'm talking about, knows how to explain it, and can do it in a relatable way. Whether your child is struggling or overachieving in theirmathclass, I want to help them better understand andhopefullyappreciate mathematics.

Stephanie

American Literature Tutor • +41 Subjects

I have a B.A. in English Language and Literature, and in Cinema and Media Studies from The University of Chicago, and an M.A. in Film Studies from The University of Iowa, where I also spent two years as a T.A., teaching undergraduate courses in film studies and related fields. I firmly believe that self-confidence, far more than ambition or natural aptitude, is the greatest determinant of success in an academic setting. By "confidence" I mean not only confidence in ones mastery of topical material, but, more fundamentally, confidence in ones ability to learn and think independently. As an instructor, I am dedicated to helping students succeed because I know from my own experiences as a student that, at every level of education, from elementary to graduate school, the support and encouragement of a passionate teacher can turn a diffident or apathetic underachieving student into a classroom star.My favorite subject to tutor is standardized test prep (SAT, ACT, GRE, etc.) because such tests cover a finite body of material that can be taught and mastered. In addition to test prep, I also tutor a number of English related subjects (including Writing, Literature, Essay Editing, and Grammar), and offer help with Study Skills and Organization. In my free time, I enjoy reading, music, travel, and photography.

Michael

Bar Exam Tutor • +8 Subjects

I am a lawyer with almost 40 years of experience practicing law having been admitted to the Pennsylvania and Federal bar in 1982 after graduating from Rutgers Law School. As a result, I have a background in a wide variety of legal areas, most of which involve representing real people. These areas include: consumer and small business bankruptcy and all matter related to people suffering from debt problems, all types of civil litigation, criminal law (including my internship in law school and Court appointed representation of criminal defendants) Family Law, Court appointed Dependency work, wills, deeds act.; and collections, insurance defense and subrogation, My years of practice have taught me how to communicate not only with the Court and my colleagues, but also to clearly communicate the sometimes complex legal issues to my clients. In addition to learning to speak publicly. I have also learned to write effectively when drafting court documents like Motions and Briefs (some of my reported cases are on my resume).I love being an attorney. especially being able to effectively represent my clients in what is often one of the most difficult times of their lives. It may be good to be the King, but for me, practicing law is more rewarding and my idea of fun. Outside of my work, my interests include history (which was my major at Penn State University) reading, swimming, and following sports and politics.

Kevin

Algebra Tutor • +14 Subjects

I have recently graduated from Wentworth Institute of Technology in Boston with a BS in Mechanical Engineering. I have always excelled in the more logical subjects such as Math and Sciences ever since middle school, thanks to excellent teachers that drilled the fundamentals into me. Those fundamentals are what allowed me to stay on top of the rest of my peers in understanding and problem solving, which is why I strongly value the importance of understanding basics and methodology instead of memorizing formulas and laws when it comes to arithmetic and sciences.
