...teenagers and kids with their everyday life and activities in English. While I love Physics and Math, I am tutoring several Math topics, such as, Algebra, Calculus, Pre-Algebra, Pre-Calculus and also Spanish and English.

I like helping students because I don't think they should feel like they can't accomplish something because...

I am a recent graduate from St. Olaf College in Northfield, MN where I studied Math and Classics. While at St. Olaf I spent three years tutoring for the on-campus Academic Support Center.

I want everyone to be able to see that they are capable of excelling.

Latin is described first, logic second. Find the topic you are interested in and read what is pertinent to you. The details are extensive and are, for example,...

...aloud in class at all levels to practice pronunciation and sentence intonation. I have furthermore put together storyboards for first-year reading texts, so that stories can be followed more easily. Technology: In the last few years, I have found that technology has allowed me, as an instructor, to design materials that look more professional and creative. Using graphics programs and experimenting with word processing programs encourages one to think a bit more like a designer,...

..."I don't teach based on what I know my students can already. I teach based on where I know they are capable of going and what they are capable of doing." I believe that people should always strive to know more. Curiosity makes the world a better and, frankly, a more fun place. If I can instill that lifelong curiosity into even one of my students, I would have reached success. I also firmly believe...

...- Twin Cities. I am an experienced K-12 tutor in reading, writing, literature, and study skills. I first began tutoring through the Minnesota Reading Corps as a Literacy Tutor. I loved it and have continued to tutor ever since! What I most value in my work as a tutor is working alongside students to become independent learners. There's nothing quite like seeing a student gain confidence and knowledge in how they best learn.

I hope to apply that same passion to helping students achieve their academic goals.

Now, with graduate school behind me, I hope to find work that will allow me to continue to share my passion for...

I look forward to working with you!

...and art history. Right now, I'm pursuing opportunities in research as part of my gap year as I apply to medical school. I've had previous experience tutoring students in a variety of subjects, from ACT prep, math, biology, and Latin.

...I'm also a "professional" student. I say this because absorbing, analyzing, and integrating knowledge from my medical courses are necessary skills for my own academic success. And so, I am more than happy to share my study strategies, techniques, and tips with students.
