My dream job is to have my own research lab for idiopathic disease. This is due to scoliosis and polycystic kidney disease running in the family. My best subjects are Biology, Chemistry (biochemistry), and Calculus. I enjoy music as a means of relaxing and have classical training from my musician parents. I also enjoy calligraphy in my spare time as well as video games. Ich spreche Deutsche zu. (I speak German too).

I am a Highly Qualified, state certified classroom teacher, and have been for the last five years. I have taught both fourth and fifth grades. I have also worked with students younger and older in my schools' various tutoring programs, as well as throughout my college and high school years. I graduated from Northern Arizona University with my Bachelors Degree in Elementary Education and will begin my Masters Degree in Educational Leadership through Arizona State University next summer.Teaching is a sincere passion of mine. It is a pleasure to help children grow and learn every day. Sometimes, in a whole group classroom setting, students can get lost in the chaos of it all, but with tutoring, the focus is solely on one student and their specific needs. I look forward to discussing in depth what your student's challenges are, as well as their strengths. We then will set goals off of some baseline data and work from there.My ultimate goal for your child is for them to feel safe and successful with tutoring, a time to look forward to. Let's get started!

Admissions Tutor • +29 Subjects
I graduated from Boston University with a degree in Psychology and English. I have enjoyed learning my whole life, though certain subjects came naturally to me while others really did not. Since graduating college I worked for several years in the psychology field- doing both clinical work as well as research, first with kids 5-13yrs old and then adults (i.e., 18+yrs old). I worked at the Harvard psychiatric hospital, as well as at various Boston-based hospitals. I then was accepted into a PhD program to continue my studies in Clinical Psychology. Throughout my time post-bac, and currently in my doctoral program I work with college students on their writing and critical reading skills. I am most passionate about English, Language Arts, and Reading. I additionally have always had a love for math and problem solving. My approach as a mentor and tutor, is to empower students to realize their unique skillset and to maximize their potential to achieve the results they want. As a tutor, my role is to be a guide and assistant to every student seeking to improve their knowledge and understanding of a subject. In my free time I enjoy being outdoors, cooking, dancing, and traveling.

I am a graduate of Tulane University where I earned my Bachelor of Science in Environmental Biology with a minor in Environmental Studies and Environmental Chemistry. In addition to my undergraduate degree, I also hold a Master's of Education in Curriculum & Instruction of Secondary Earth Science from Boston College. I am currently certified in Elementary, Middle and High School Sciences Massachusetts, and I am currently working to achieve certification in Texas. I have experience teaching at both public and private schools in Texas and am familiar with both STAAR and ISEE test prep and administration. My experience includes one-on-one and small group tutoring, substitute teaching, co-teaching, and classroom teaching in grades PreK, K, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 12. I have tutored reading and literacy, math, STEAM/STEM, and science to students ranging in age from PreK to 12th grade, I have co-taught reading and literacy to students ranging in age from PreK grade to 8th grade, and I have taught integrated science, STEAM/STEM, physical science, biology, chemistry, and earth science to students ranging in age from 4th grade to 12th grade. I have experience with state standardized science testing tutoring (both STAAR and ISEE), science fair and other science class projects, presentations, and lab/experiments, and English Language Arts state testing prep. I have also tutored students in SAT prep for integrated science. I am a very enthusiastic, creative, and patient teacher with a strong background in working with and teaching students with social and emotional disorders, learning disorders, behavioral challenges, and ELLs. I especially enjoy working one-on-one with students as it enables us to work together to discover their strengths and interests which allows me to more easily target areas of weakness and create unique, individualized, and exciting lessons and experiences. As an educator I truly believe in the value of helping students develop life long learning skills that can be applied throughout various disciplines and levels, and I strongly believe that tutoring is a great way to achieve immediate success as well as develop long term skills that will encourage mindful thinking and increased academic rigor. Having worked with such a diverse group of learners throughout my career, I am confident in my ability to make information and concepts accessible to all types of students.

I have been tutoring students in math, reading, and writing since high school, and I've found that teaching and learning happens on both ends. Just as the activity of teaching is not limited to the teacher, the activity of learning is not limited to the student. There is always an exchange between what the teacher and student have to offer.I believe it is best to show, rather than tell students how to work their way through the task at hand, whether it be a problem or a prompt. I know that there is not always one way to solve a problem or answer a prompt, so I am always open and patient with students as we walk through that process.

3rd Grade Science Tutor • +22 Subjects
I love teaching and helping children reach their full academic potential. I earned my BA from Boston College, a MS in Education from Lehman College and a JD from Tulane Law School. I have taught full time in schools in New York, Paris, and Abu Dhabi. I love teaching and live for those "aha" moments when a student finally understands a concept. I have taught all grade levels and subjects from Pre-K through College age students. My favorite level of students to teach is middle school and elementary students.In my spare time I enjoy traveling. I also enjoy studying languages. I am currently working on improving my French and Arabic. I love trying new foods and going to Modern Art museums. I believe a successful teacher is one who is patient, creative and enthusiastic. I embody all these qualities and I look forward to working with you!

My name is John Britton Buttrill, and I am an educator working in a global context. I have worked as an English Literature teacher for the past five years and will spend this year traveling throughout France & West Africa. I hold two graduate degrees, an MFA in creative writing and an MA in English education. I believe that the study of English allows us to garner the communication skills, while gaining a larger understanding of how our lives fit in to a diverse world. My passion for teaching literature stems from my background as a writer, as I am a produced playwright, published poet, and freelance journalist.I have worked as an English teacher with the NYC Department of Education. I taught 9th grade English at a Title-1 high-school, serving high-needs BIPOC students, where I took on leadership and teaching roles. I was a team leader for the 9th grade English department, created department wide unit plans for a variety of texts, and taught both honors-level and special-needs students. I was a member of our school's Equity Committee and co-creator of a mentorship group for male-identifying students of color. During the 2020/2021 remote-learning school year, I utilized a variety of technologies, including Google Classroom, PearDeck, and Padlet. Lastly, I had the highest student-attendance rate in our high-school.As a teacher of literature and literacy, I employ a Critical Pedagogy using the Socratic method. My practice is grounded in equity and social justice, and thus I challenge my students to interrogate the world around them. I believe that effective ELA instruction should be tailored to students' cultural contexts, while maintaining rigor and college preparedness. To achieve these goals, I strive for an authentic, relationship-based classroom culture.

10th Grade Reading Tutor • +86 Subjects
I have an MBA, BS in political science and an AA in voice/music. I have a very diverse background in education both as an administrator and as a teacher...I consider myself to be a "Jack of all Trades".I have 8 years experience as a college professor teaching, business, life skills, academic success, ESOL, citizenship (government/US history), vocabulary, customer service and tutoring. I believe in teaching the individual. To me, this means learning who the student is both inside and outside of the learning environment. Everyone learns differently, but people learn more quickly when the information is presented in a manner that is relevant to their lives. Learning a student's interests allows me to customize a specific curriculum to meet their individual needs.I have also tutored and taught, both honors as well as the exceptional student populations, in elementary, middle and high school subject matters. Across the board, the key to a student's success is finding their strengths, building their confidence and connecting inferences between old and new subject matters. I believe these techniques give each student the opportunity to succeed.On a personal note I was born in Pennsylvania, but moved to Florida after graduating high school. I just moved to Washington state a few weeks ago and I am enjoying the mountains and the cooler weather. I can't wait to see snow again! I love to travel, I enjoy outdoor activities, and love my friends!
