...tutored. I tutored students at the college level in Beginners and Intermediate Spanish. I was so happy to add Spanish to my repertoire of tutoring subjects because it is a personal favorite. Learning Spanish is fun and exciting! It has been an integral part of my life since when I first began learning it at the age of 14. However, I rapidly learned because I immersed myself in Spanish music, television, and culture. I also...

...to adapt to different learning styles and personalities, it has also left me with the understanding that every path to academic success begins with confidence and a positive attitude.

Though I tutor many subjects, I find SAT preparation to be particularly rewarding. Everyone has a dream school,...

...Professor could be one of my professions: teaching fellow classmates about a subject during group studies, and helping cousins via Skype with their homework. I personally believe that a person doesn't, solely, master a subject when he "aces" an exam, but when he is also able to communicate what he has mastered to another person and have that person "ace" as well. So here I am, wanting to help you "ace" that subject that has...

Hello! I'm James Robotham, I've been teaching and tutoring for over three years now. The reason I teach is that there's nothing I enjoy more than helping YOU feel more confident with your studies, so you can go out and rock your classes and feel prepared. Let's get started.

I love helping people and enjoy assisting those in learning. I really enjoy passing on my knowledge and watching the look on someones face as they understand something they didn't before.... My teaching philosophy is to compare the topic at hand to something that is interesting to the student. If you can make it more fun or interesting to them, it will be easier to understand. They might even enjoy it!... I would assess how to...

...families as partners in their child's education. Reassuring parents that my commitment to their student extends beyond the classroom to a caring investment in our community's future, I believe is key in establishing a relationship of trust that ultimately benefits the student.

I read this quote at one point in my life and it just made sense to me and I feel it applies to most of the things we do in life. Never settle for failure always strive to succeed. "Failure happens all the time. It happens every day in practice. What makes you better is how you react to it." -Mia Hamm

...to conversations that are inclusive of multiple perspectives and lived experiences. Through this viewpoint, I work towards becoming supportive, culturally aware, and a better communicator with every teaching interaction. This might resemble hosting one-on-one appointments for students who have conflicting schedules or affording assignment extensions for students with extenuating circumstances. Additionally, building connections with students' families requires a conscious effort and is well worthwhile when necessary, given that parental support plays a crucial role in...

I'm a recent transplant from Chicago after attending Northwestern University. When I'm not listening to rap or taking pictures of random strangers on the street with my film camera, I enjoy reading short stories. I've always been a visual learner that benefits from DOING... that means I don't want to lecture you during our sessions, but open the dialogue to have fruitful conversations rather than having you memorize and forget.

I entered the tutoring profession to help others achieve their full potential academically, professionally and personally. I believe that those three are interwoven because in order to succeed in one you have to strive and achieve in all. On a personal note I am an avid runner and reader. I enjoy the outdoors but I also enjoy those quiet moments after a busy day.... I believe in not only providing a sound theoretical basis when it...
