I am able to tutor in a wide range of subjects and am passionate about helping students succeeding. I've never been that student who 'got things' right away, but I learned how to work hard and ask for help when I needed it. I hope to pass this on to my students.

Biology Tutor • +47 Subjects

Look, learning can be toughbut it's rewarding in the end, and done right, it can be a lot of fun. My goal is to help students learn and succeed, but also to help them have a good time while doing it.Part of what I love most about being a journalist is breaking things down and making them understandable to the massesbasically, teaching people new things. If they don't comprehend and retain that knowledge, I haven't succeeded in my job, just like a tutor. I've been informally tutoring people for years, whether it's helping children study for classes while babysitting in high school and college or helping classmates learn and prepare for school all the way back to my elementary school days. In one form or another, I've been helping people learn almost as long as I remember.A great tutor needs to be intelligent, with a comprehensive, intuitive understanding of the subject matter. It's not enough to just know the answers to questions; a tutor needs to understand why the answers are what they are. A great tutor needs to be compassionate, patient, understanding, and kind, to help create a safe, creative and comfortable environment for the student to learn. And a great tutor needs to be empathetic, to be able to put him/herself in the student's shoes and understand why he or she might be having trouble.

Conversational Mandarin Tutor • +13 Subjects

I was born and raised in China. In 2000, I came to United States with my husband to pursue my master degree in Nutritional Science in University of Oklahoma Health Science Center. I have two girls both born in US. I have been teaching them Chinese language and culture. Five years ago I started teaching Chinese in our city Chinese School. I am very passionate about teaching the Chinese culture and language to the younger generation in US. By knowing more Chinese culture, learning Chinese could be more interesting and useful.Depending on the different students with different goals, I will use different teaching technique to fit your needs. From listening, speaking, to reading and writing, learning Mandarin Chinese should be step by step and also should be fun. I would like to introduce many tools in the lesson-videos, songs, Microsoft office PowerPoint, cards and books. Lets work together to make a fun learning journey.

AP English Language and Composition Tutor • +28 Subjects

I am not perfect. And I do not try to be. I spend every day trying to be the best version of me I can, an imperfect me, but me. And that is what I teach every student I encounter; be YOU. Striving to be a perfect person will leave you disappointed. But, striving to be a perfect YOU, oh, that's self-love at its finniest. This is my mantra in teaching. Connecting with students is my purpose and passion. Going beyond the content and teaching them life lessons. I have been working in education for seven years and have enjoyed most of it. I believe in fun in education! If I am bored, I know the student is bored too. The more the student is engaged, the better the chances are the student will remember what they are being taught. Sometimes, they forget that they are learning. That is the best kind of teaching.Ok, about me. I graduated college at the University of Mary Hardin- Baylor. I have a degree in Journalism and I'm currently getting my master's in education.I teach Theatre in the classroom and tutor writing, reading, theatre and English.

Conversational Spanish Tutor • +13 Subjects

I am a senior at the University of North Texas. I am pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Integrative Studies with emphases on psychology, human development and family science, and social work. I have many years of experience working with children from pre-k all the way up to eighth grade, but my favorite to work with are the little ones because they are so fun! I am knowledgeable in many subjects, but the ones I am most passionate about are English and study skills. I am a firm believer in the idea that being able to communicate and organize ideas coherently is the most important skill a person can learn, and it is a lifelong process. My favorite part of tutoring is being able to witness my students' development as people while they expand their minds and discover new and exciting opportunities.

George

College English Tutor • +4 Subjects

I was born in the USA and spent over 20 years in the US Navy so I have lived in a few other locations outside of the country (Puerto Rico, Guam, Japan, and Indonesia). With degrees in Computer Science and an MBA, I am well versed in technical and business topics and language expressions but also I am a writer/reader/artist so also very familiar with less technical informal English.Life has allowed me to visit many countries and to meet even more fascinating and wonderful people. English is a bridge that allows us to communicate and connect in unique ways. I have taught English for over 5 years and enjoy the challenge and satisfaction of a student reaching their fluency goals and showing them the priceless value of English fluency. This is one of the sources of joy as a teacher, mentor, coach and friend.I look forward to helping you achieve your English goals.
