Melissa
Elementary School Tutor • +17 Subjects
Hello students and parents. I am a Reading Specialist in a private school by career. I've been in education for 19 years and still going strong! I've taught in elementary as well as middle (well rounded). I graduated with an undergrad BA degree in Interdisciplinary Studies and a Masters in Reading K-12 endorsed. I've always had a love for finding easier ways to teach children and adults. Seeing many frustrated students over years made me want to become apart of the solution. My patience and knowledge of subject matter allows me to reach students/adults in a special way. I love seeing the aha moments when they get it! That is the ultimate adrenaline rush for me which is why I teach. Students get the opportunity to learn from me, however I get to create a great rapport with them and learn awesome things.

Yan
ACT Math Tutor • +55 Subjects
I am a teacher and I have taught at elementary and middle schools in Boston for 4 years. I have tutored for over 7 years! I majored in education at Boston College. My favorite part of teaching is getting to know students and creating course materials that engage students to make learning fun and accessible. I mainly tutor math and Chinese. I believe that each student is fully capable of understanding material. It just depends on how the material is presented to them. My goal is to meet each student where they are at, and support them in learning the way they learn best!
Laura
Algebra Tutor • +23 Subjects
I am a Teaching Fellow and graduate of Appalachian State University, where I earned my Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education in 2007. Graduating Summa Cum Laude, I also received a concentration in Spanish. After graduation, I taught third and fourth grade in North Carolina. After that, I taught second grade at A.B. Combs Leadership Magnet Elementary School, where we received the honor of the #1 Magnet School of America. I have deeply enjoyed my six years in the classroom. It's a true joy to watch students fall in love with learning!Throughout my professional experience as a teacher, I have had many opportunities to teach students with a huge range of abilities, including academically gifted, ADHD, dyslexia, and autism. My commitment to maximizing individual student performance and inspiring students' interest in learning drives each tutoring session. Although I love teaching all subject areas, developing children's written expression is a real passion of mine. Since Florida Standards expect students to explain their thinking in both reading and math, it is extremely important to excel in writing. The use of visual aides, manipulatives (tangible objects for students to use while learning), and easy-to-learn test-taking strategies are appropriate and highly effective for my students. I truly believe that making education fun and enjoyable for young students is the key to producing self-motivated learners.In my spare time, I love to be outside! I have recently moved to Florida and enjoy running, biking, swimming, and paddleboarding. My husband and I have a daughter who is now crawling, so much of my day is spent chasing after her! I also love to read and go to the library to find new books. When we have the time, our family enjoys attending sporting events, and we are excited to see a Tampa Rays game soon!
Rebekah
ASVAB Prep Tutor • +19 Subjects
I obtained my B.A in English language and literature, with a minor in music, at the University of Washington, Seattle. Since high school, my passion has been traveling and making connections with people of different ages and cultures. I took a gap year after high school to backpack in Europe, spent a summer in Russia at a children's camp, and did a summer study abroad learning about social justice in India. My last quarter of college was an internship teaching ESL in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan. While I love studying literature of all genres, I feel the most impactful literary experience is one that deeply resonates with the reader, and inspires them to write their own stories. This is why I am an advocate for detailed, creative, and personal essay writing. The most powerful essay or piece of academic writing is one which is inspired by the writer's personal instincts and experiences. In my tutoring, I strive to find literature or experiences which ignite creativity in an essay. When I'm not traveling, or planning my next trip, I enjoy reading, hiking, playing piano, and finding new music.

Cassandra
Adult Literacy Tutor • +52 Subjects
I'm Cassandra. I come from a big family in Pennsylvania. I graduated high school as valedictorian and began school at New York University in 2015. At NYU, I study Applied Psychology and Sociology with a minor in Music. My school experience is driven by a desire to understand people as individuals and what affects human wellbeing. Based on this understanding, I enjoy doing what I can to help other people grow and learn, which is what led me to become a tutor. I've been tutoring peers, siblings, and strangers since middle school, and my objective is to help students reach their learning goals.
Charles
Algebra Tutor • +67 Subjects
I am a dedicated, committed, and enthusiastic educator who strongly believes that curriculum and assessment operate hand-in-hand and that the two areas should inform educational outcomes in order to improve the formal and informal learning experiences for all of Pre-Kindergarten through 12th Grade students. When I was a South Bronx youth, my young parents worked all the time and my grandparents, aunts, and uncles supported me while obtaining my education in New York City. It is my belief that a highly motivated student can accomplish any academic goal(s) s/he puts their mind to. Learning is a process; concepts build on each other. Knowledge mastery is a goal the student strives towards. As a tutor, I hope to guide, support, and encourage the student to think critically and analytically about her or his education inside and outside the classroom walls
