Languages and linguistics are fascinating to me and I don't get to speak mine enough, so please speak them with me! My physics background, as well as my years of teaching, means I know a disturbing amount of math (through advanced calculus). Yet, I've also been reading...

...as a teacher for ten years. I enjoy being with students and helping them become more successful. As a former special education teacher, I am well-versed in the ins and outs of that world, and I can help any parent struggling to make any sense of it. (Trust me, I can talk for hours about that stuff!) The most important attributes that I have in regards to tutoring is enormous patience and a great deal...

...my time in high school I started several school clubs, wrote for our community's local newspaper, and was a keynote speaker at a STEM conference in Raleigh, NC. From TCEC, I went on to attend the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, where I earned a degree in Theater, with concentrations in Russian Studies and Global Cinema. What's more important, is that I kept up my interests as a storyteller. I studied journalism for...

...teacher teach Russian in mixture with Russian culture (knowledge brings forth more comfortable atmosphere) and through a variety of colloquial speech exercises, like dialogues and role plays. The personal approach is also important, so I create a special individual approach to each student adjusting the way of presenting class material to his or her individual learning style. In my free time I like to read (History, Folklore, detectives and science fiction) and take pictures of...

...all ages in many subject areas. I have extensive experience in the following subjects: Spanish, Russian, Reading, Writing (and Composition), and Statistics.

As a tutor, I think it's critical to tailor my tutoring style to the specific needs of the student to best aide in their learning and educational...

...a passion for the environment and social justice. However, I am excited to help students reach their goals in any subject area. I strongly believe in a collaborative approach as a tutor, where the students' goals are front and center, and we work together at a pace that is comfortable but achieves meaningful results. Outside of tutoring, I love spending time in nature, and am pursuing a career in the environmental field.

I have 8 years of experience in education, with a variety of age groups ranging from elementary to higher education. I worked with the Colorado College Writing Center for four years and I am currently working in a high school teaching Career and College Counseling and writing courses.

...needs. While some learned better through mnemonics and letter-to-word associations, others preferred to process information and teach content back to me themselves. The greatest lesson I've learned as a tutor is to first step back and let a student tell me their goals, show me how they take in information, and point me in the direction of the challenging areas. With this information, I can help students build their own learning and testing strategy to...

...literature based, as that is where my interests lie. I enjoy discussing books with my students and helping them realize the subtle nuances of the author's language. I also enjoy helping my students with their own writing, helping them find their unique style. For test prep, I enjoy the English, Reading and Writing portions and try to help my students do the same. I believe the more a student enjoys something the easier it will...

...Glendale, and an advanced Competition Math class for two age groups (6-8 and 9-12). It's a lot of fun! I've always found math pretty neat and like to get students interested in it too! I love to travel and have been fortunate enough to do a lot of it during my quarter-century on this planetRussia, all over Europe, the Middle East, Venezuela, Mexico, India, and pretty much every state in this country. You only live...

...students in a variety of subjects, including biology, chemistry, and Spanish. In addition, I worked as both a peer advisor and teaching assistant, which gives me insight into the learning strategies and study skills that students need to succeed.

In my free time, I...

...professors asked me to tutor his friend's college-age grandson in chemistry. We met for several hours a night, two to three nights a week, and although we worked hard, we both had a lot of fun. He improved greatly in the time I worked with him, and it was incredibly rewarding to watch him master concepts that he once found difficult. I hope to be able to help students understand the material they are studying...

I try to teach them problem solving and time management strategies that they will find useful throughout their academic careers. Most...

I can work most nights, days, and weekends. I tutor up to 20 hours...

...by expanding their capacity for learning and making the generalized process of education more personal. Learning is a skill that requires training, pacing, and a lot of practice. It stems from one's ability to process information by reading the assigned text, taking good notes, and carefully choosing exercises and problems to solidify one's understanding of concepts without taking up too much time. Though learning is a universal skill, it manifests differently from person to person....

Throughout high school I volunteered with various organizations to help teach students everything from French to Taekwondo.
