Connor

Adult ESL/ELL Tutor • +16 Subjects

I believe that writing is vital to empowerment and expression. Everyone has a voice and learning how to utilize that voice to communicate your ideas is just as useful outside the classroom as it is inside. I've seen the positive effects of writing, and they inspire me to continue teaching. My approach to helping students utilize their voice begins with an understanding of the context in which they're learning: what is the class's content? What are the assignment's expectations? Where are the strengths? Where are the weaknesses? How can we leverage the strengths to compensate for the weaknesses? And, maybe most importantly, what's the student's learning style? As for me, I received a Bachelor of Science in Writing from Grand Valley State University in 2018. I enjoy reading, writing, and playing video games in my free time.

Anne

Algebra Tutor • +44 Subjects

Teaching has always been something I was naturally passionate about. I started teaching piano in 9th grade, working with neighbors in my local community. In college, I joined a group called the Experimentors who taught K-12 science and math. We traveled to various schools throughout Boston after class and organized curriculums for different subjects and age groups. However, I was always drawn more to teaching one-on-one, where I could form a relationship and really tailor my teaching style to the students' way of thinking and approaching various concepts and ideas. I have been fortunate to instruct and engage with students in a variety of ways, from teaching as a summer school proctor, classroom teacher, private tutor as well as a teaching assistant in a classroom setting, all of which have strengthened the various methods and techniques I have learned as a mentor. I also have a strong academic background, with a degree in biophysics as well as in music and teaching experience in both fields. I hope to use my experience to help students develop a deeper understanding of physics, biology, math and music as well as cater to each individual students needs and approaches to learning and understanding.

Adam

College Level American History Tutor • +10 Subjects

I have a passion for learning and assisting others learn. I believe that the ability to guide someone else as they learn is one of the most rewarding skills one can have. I am a recent graduate from UW-Whitewater where I double majored in History and Political Science and Minored in German. Throughout the last three years of my undergraduate career I worked for the on-campus tutoring service. During this time I was a supplemental instructor for Historical Perspectives and College Literacy. I believe that tutoring is truly the most effective method by which to master subjects that are difficult. I understand the challenges that come with learning, I struggled with many of them myself. It is through hard work, determination and a little help that these challenges can be overcome.

Nicolas

ACT English Tutor • +29 Subjects

I completed my high school education at Walter Payton College Prep and just finished freshman year at Harvard. I have always had a passion for both learning and working with others. I have never been afraid of asking others for help on homework or classwork and have been eager to help classmates seeking help.I first got exposure to tutoring as a volunteer in the LIT program, a program designed to help under-privileged kids catch up in reading and writing. On top of being a part-time tutor, I have experience helping kids working as a camp counselor at Fred's Camp and Camp Chicago as well as taking on babysitting jobs around my neighborhood.In my experience as a tutor, the most important thing I realized was that there isn't a cookie cutter way of teaching any subject to any student. Each student is different, and I pay attention to their learning style and adjust accordingly. I strive to not only make sure students can solve each problem but that they thoroughly comprehend the concept as well. After finding the weak points in their understanding, I introduce problems and ask questions that specifically target those areas.I look forward to meeting you and working with you to reach your academic goals!

Cantonese Tutor • +3 Subjects

I am from China and currently just got my M.Ed. in Language Education at the Graduate School of Education, Rutgers University. I got my B.A. in Teaching Chinese as a Foreign Language at Guangdong University of Foreign Studies in China in 2011.During my study at Rutgers GSE, I took World Language methodology courses and learned a lot about World Language teaching and learning in the class as well as from observations in different settings of schools. When I went to Linden High School to observe the Chinese classrooms, I also got the chance to teach 9th graders two full lessons of Chinese. During the summer of 2012, I participated in the Rutgers Startalk program as the practicum teacher in Highland Park, in which I was engaged in learning the methods and working with novice students from different age groups.I was employed as a part-time lecturer in the Department of Asian Languages and Cultures at Rutgers this spring semester. I taught Mandarin Chinese to college students at intermediate and advanced levels. Though the college setting is different from K-12, I tried to utilize the theories and methods that I learned from the graduate school, as well as from observations and my prior experience to create a positive, interactive learning environment in the Chinese language classrooms. In my spare time, I also tutor Chinese to a high school student twice a week and substituted several times at Jersey Shore Chinese School on Saturdays.It is my goal to combine my knowledge and experience in language education as well as my ability to be a passionate, hard-working Chinese language teacher to create good learning experiences for the students in the future. As a native speaker of Chinese, I wish I could open windows to a different culture and perspectives for students by teaching them Mandarin Chinese and bringing the culture in the teaching.
