Ming

Algebra Tutor • +17 Subjects

One of my favorite subjects while in school was Chemistry. While I tutor a variety of subjects, Chemistry remains my favorite both to learn and to teach. My Bachelor of Science degree from UCLA is in Chemistry, and I have a Master of Science in Chemistry from Georgia State University. From there, I obtained a PhD in Molecular Biology and Biochemistry from UC Irvine. I have tutored high school students who went on to attend top institutions. Additionally, during my PhD years I mentored undergraduates who went on to attend great institutions, as well, for their professional and graduate degrees. I am also a native Mandarin Chinese speaker. My teaching style is one in which I want to inspire the students to see that learning can be fun rather than be a chore; to have great understanding in any subject requires hard work, but the reward is in knowing and having the confidence to say "I am an expert in this field." I believe in actively engaging the student while teaching, rather than just disseminating information. In my free time, I love to go hiking and camping, read, and play organized sports.

Olivia

Adult ESL/ELL Tutor • +10 Subjects

My name is Olivia. I started studying French when I was in high school and fell in love with it. After a short visit to Paris with the French Club at my high school, I knew I wanted to be able to speak it fluently. I majored in French in college and spent six months living in Aix-en-Provence where I took intensive French courses and lived with a French woman. Inspired by my experience, I hoped to come back and work. After graduating in 2013 I became an English Teaching assistant in a high school and two middle schools in Tulle. I fell in love with teaching English and after I returned to the States I became a substitute teacher and pursued my TEFL certification. The following year I became a teaching assistant again and this time worked in Brive-la-Gaillarde. My time in living in France has allowed me to become fluent in French as well as having a keen understanding of French culture. I have two years of experience teaching English as a second language through my time as an language assistant.I have passion for teaching and sharing language and culture. I hope one day to become and English teacher in France .

John

Accompaniment Tutor • +50 Subjects

Hello! I am currently pursuing an undergraduate dual major in English Writing (Poetry) and Linguistics at the University of Pittsburgh. I have tutored students of all ages through many programs over the past four years. I believe that in order to learn successfully, one has to be willing to challenge the status quo. In my spare time, I enjoy playing tennis, hiking, practicing various musical instruments, and "nerding out" with some retro videogames.

I'm Robert Glassner and am a middle school math teacher in the northern suburbs of Chicago. I received my Bachelor of Arts from Northeastern Illinois University in Middle-Level Education and Elementary Education, with minors in TESL (Teaching English as a Second Language) and Math and Science Concepts. I am designated as "highly qualified" by the state of Illinois to teach mathematics, science, social sciences, and language arts. I believe that math is the "language of the universe", and it is imperative that all students can communicate mathematically. I have also tutored in some capacity for the last 15 years and have significant experience working with gifted students, English Learners, and remote instruction.

Reece

Admissions Tutor • +23 Subjects

I studied at Southern Methodist University (SMU) and graduated magna cum laude in 2017 with two degrees: A Bachelor of Arts in Journalism and a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Theatre Studies (Playwriting). At SMU, I was also initiated into Kappa Tau Alpha, an honor society recognizing academic excellence in journalism and mass communication. After graduation, I spent five years on the staff of The Dallas Morning News (one of the top circulating newspapers in the United States) as a Digital Editor and Staff Writer. I tutor in a broad range of subjects at the college and high school level, including but not limited to American and European history, creative writing, English, essay writing and editing, grammar, literature, news writing, public speaking, Shakespeare, social studies and text analysis. I am incredibly passionate about helping students improve their writing. I firmly believe that writing is a foundational skill that sets students up to comprehend the world around them and become lifelong learners. At its core essence, writing is storytelling, and I train storytellers. When away from my computer, I enjoy cooking, reading, traveling and playing with my dog, a Wheaten Terrier named Doak. I look forward to having a conversation about your needs and how I can assist you in achieving your goals!

Martin

Adult Literacy Tutor • +21 Subjects

In college, I was just beginning to learn what it meant to take full responsibility of ones own life and future. I have made a lot of mistakes. However, that has never stopped me a day in my life. While in college, I worked as Freelance Computer Technician and Computer Modeler/Builder for eight years, tutored hundreds of students free of charge for eight years, and doing research about ten hours a week. After graduation, I took my first full time job in Japan as an English teacher. The reason for this was because I wanted to feel my independence but in the most extreme fashion imaginable. In Japan, I didnt know the language, the people, where I was going, and what to do there. In under four months, I learned Japanese and was able to talk fluidly and in under nine months I achieved fluency.I bring this up, because in Japan, I explored myself and the world in order to get a better understanding of how to learn and how I learn. Not only that, but what it takes to adapt to a civilization and lifestyle that you have not been accustomed to. This is important because in order for you to have change, you have to make the uncomfortable choices in life.This experience afforded me the possibility to change and genuinely understand the world around me. I understand that there is much I still have to learn, but it has equipped me with skills that I would not have found using the normal route. For this I will forever be grateful and I wouldnt change a thing. My mistakes have led me to be the person that I am. I will never deny them or hide. You will have nothing less than my complete being.Video Presentation of my Senior Thesis:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iU7emJNfPJAVideo Presentation of my Neurological Presentation:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PMYpQ_fyQHk
