Elle
Conversational Spanish Tutor • +23 Subjects
I have been a teacher for the past 10 years, teaching all core subjects to students of all ages. I have worked with students as young as kindergarten and as old as high school seniors, through my regular classroom and summer school jobs. I currently teach 6th grade (for the past 5 years), in a typical elementary style self-contained classroom, meaning I teach all subjects, and I absolutely love it! I enjoy working with people and helping them develop their interests and skill sets, as personal growth is one of my most important values. I have both my bachelor's degree in Elementary Education and master's degree in Educational Leadership from Cardinal Stritch University. As an undergrad I also minored in Literacy and Spanish, the latter of which allowed for a wonderful summer study abroad experience in Guatemala. I teach all subjects but enjoy tutoring math the most, since when I was a young student I struggled in math. Through consistent effort and practice I began to improve in my math abilities and I want to impart that same feeling of success to my students. I learned many strategies to help math make sense to me and I now introduce a variety of methods to help my students make sense of solving problems. I also enjoy tutoring for the PRAXIS exam and helping to develop test taking skills; my students consistently show meaningful growth on our state standardized testing. My Praxis Core Reading score: 181, Praxis Core Writing: 180, Praxis Core Math: 184. I am very eager to engage in new experiences, especially ones that allow me to tap into my creative side. I feel as though I am the most energized, best version of myself, when I am writing (songs, raps, poems, plays), singing, rapping, acting, directing, dancing, painting, and anything else that allows me to express myself while having a good laugh along the way.

ACT Writing Tutor • +44 Subjects
Education has always been at the center of my life. I earned my Bachelor's degree in Industrial Engineering from Georgia Tech, then went on to study Mathematics at the graduate level at the University of South Florida. Later, I completed a degree in Educational Leadership, which allowed me to combine my love for teaching with strong expertise in tutoring for exams such as the PRAXIS and FTCE.I began tutoring many years ago, and it quickly became one of the great joys of my career. I truly love everything about schoollearning, teaching, and being part of the academic journey. As a high school math teacher, I taught a wide range of subjects, from Algebra to AP Calculus, and I've carried that same versatility into my tutoring work. My goal is always to break down difficult concepts into clear, understandable lessons while keeping students engaged, confident, and never overwhelmed.Beyond teaching content, I focus on building strong connections with my students. I believe that when a student feels comfortable asking questions and isn't afraid to say, "I don't understand," real learning happens. I create a relaxed, encouraging atmosphere that fosters curiosity and growth. Over time, I've also developed a wealth of test-taking strategies, which I share as needed to help students manage anxiety and approach exams with confidence.The greatest reward for me is seeing my students succeednot just in mastering the material, but in gaining confidence in themselves as learners. Many of my students have told me how much easier math feels after working together, and I'm proud to have earned nearly perfect ratings throughout my years of tutoring.At the heart of everything I do is a love of learning and a passion for helping others discover it too. Tutoring is not just my profession it's my calling, and I am grateful for every opportunity to make a difference in a student's academic journey.

Algebra Tutor • +42 Subjects
Greetings!I'm here because I genuinely enjoy helping others succeed and I will tell you a little about myself below!I graduated with my Master's degree in Secondary Education at Eastern Connecticut State University. I also have a Bachelor's Degree in Meteorology...so, if you ever need to know about the weather, I'm your guy!I've been tutoring mathematics and other select subjects (such as English, Science, and SAT prep) for the last 13 years now (ranging from college classrooms to businesses like Sylvan Learning). I truly enjoy seeing others succeed and knowing that I can help!For the last few years, I've taught grade 7 math as a classroom teacher; but, I have plenty of experience (especially with student teaching) with high school material ranging from Algebra I, all the way to AP materials (I tutored Calculus in college).Outside of tutoring, I love to play music (I'm a drummer) and I'm obsessed with PCs - I've built my own!I've been told that I'm hard-working and very friendly. I am very passionate about Mathematics and Meteorology. I'm very quick to notice even the slightest mistake in my students' work - I would say that's my best quality - I see a misunderstanding of some sort and can explain it in numerous ways based on the way each individual student learns. I will make sure that you fully understand the content I'm tutoring you in.I can promise that if you get me as your tutor, the time will fly by - I'm a very approachable, fun person by nature. You will most certainly succeed in your endeavors.

"I just get it the way you explain it" is a refrain I cherish in my teaching experience. I have taught all middle school academic subjects even though my degrees are in music. A passionate learner myself, I strive to share that with my students. Whether leading a classroom, instructing my own children, or teaching private music lessons, personalizing and customizing the learning experience is and always has been the ultimate goal. I hold bachelor's and master's degrees in music performance which I eventually used to get my teaching certification. I am certified to teach middle school math (including algebra), ELA, and science; math is my passion. When not teaching, I love to travel. On my bucket list are seeing the brown bears in Katmai, Alaska and polar bears in Churchill, Canada as well as Giant's Causeway in Northern Ireland. I cherish working with learners, facilitating the skills that will help them open doors that will maximize their potential to positively engage in our world.

Tutoring and helping students with understanding mathematics is similar to walking in unknown territory. I love being a guide into mathematics and providing tools and thought process that resolves a conflict of understanding a particular point. I hope my enthusiasm for Mathematics will be slightly contagious and students will learn the concepts in mathematics. There are a multitude of different methods to learn, explanations to hear or read exist in the world today. At first hand, Information is complicated and sometimes looks unattainable. It is not always easy to find the correct method or just the right explanation at once in order to solve a problem or understand the concept. It takes some practice to utilize all the tools and your own strength and weakness and it is easier to accomplish it when someone knows how to guide your in the right direction.Any high school and beginner college level courses would fall into my expertise field for tutoring; Algebra courses, Geometry, Pre-Calculus, Trigonometry, Calculus. I love art and sports and consequently can utilize the knowledge I have attained about both to create bridges from concepts students are familiar to more abstract ideas in mathematics. Understanding that there are multitude of applications in everyday world of mathematics provides me with a unique set of expertise and understanding of the necessity to learn the skills for 21st century. Different methods work for different humans beings some prefer a visual, auditory or kinesthetic way to memorize a concept. Graphing and utilizing problem solving rather than memorization provides a better fundamentals for understanding a concept. At the same time, I am familiar with tools that help memorize and study independently and can recommend them if they are necessary.Within education field, I have assisted with management and monitoring various programs, used of different instructional models, Collaborative learning, Sheltered Instruction Observation Protocol (SIOP) to create engaging and balanced experiences for students K-12, and reviewed different books to create fun activities for students. In concurrence, I have utilized Google Docs, OneNote and Canva tools available for green record keeping, fact-checking, documentation, preparation of tables and charts, creation of worksheets, notes, and slides for presentation. Working with students and parent at different organizations, I continue to promote and practice high standards in learning and teaching. Utilizing Question and answer format I help each student with individual work of learning a material at hand, at the same time remembering that all education could fun and exciting. My own education and courses that helped me are listed below.Education, Honors, and CertificationsM.S.E.

It is a challenge to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge (Albert Einstein) in all students, no matter of their cultural background, social-economical background, and number of other variables that influence persons growth. I want all my students to feel capable of doing mathematics. My challenge as a teacher is to create an atmosphere in the class that would encourage student to think creatively, find their strengths and weaknesses. Education only occurs when teacher and students are cooperating and learning from one another. It is important to remember that as a teacher to continue learning from students, parents and professional sources.
