...with everything from business English to the fundamentals of grammar. I have also studied Japanese for twelve years, honing my skills through translation and editing and assisting fellow students however possible. My core belief is that education should be fun.

Flashcards and textbooks are fantastic learning tools, but in...

My name is Eric Ensign and I have been a classroom teacher in the Seattle area for over seventeen years. During my time as a teacher I have taught nearly every subject and grade level. I enjoy the classroom setting, but I also enjoy working with my students one-on-one and getting to know them on a personal level.

I'm a former teacher, and I really miss the interaction with students. I love to help others figure out how best to learn, and I love watching students' faces light up when "they get it!" So if you would like to work with a personal cheer squad, I'm it!

Writing is an imperative element of professional life, and teaching a student to write articulately, compellingly and clearly is essential to success!

...in those areas. It is fun to share those approaches with students and watch the AHA! moments unfold. Why do I teach? Successful learning requires awareness of HOW you think: how you create and organize your own perception. I am fascinated with this meta-thinking, this thinking ABOUT how you think, and I take great joy in helping others gain deeper insight into their own thinking patterns. I graduated from Oberlin College with a degree in...

...educating and assisting homeless and other diverse populations through public health initiatives and political organizations. I love engaging with subjects that educate us on how we as individuals structure our world and view ourselves.

I also...

...student teaching (which occurred during the height of the pandemic) I taught entirely virtually and learned how to form meaningful relationships with students even through a computer screen. In addition, I found ways to utilize technology effectively in order to keep engagement levels high.
