Salinah

6th Grade AP Language Composition Tutor • +92 Subjects

The careers I've chosen reflect my never-ending pursuit of knowledge and service by helping others achieve their goals through education. At SUNY Purchase College, I supervised and worked closely with residential professionals and fellow students to assist in providing them with a safe learning community by creating and facilitating interactive programs. I've worked as an Administrator for a Master's program focusing on Stem Cell Biology at the University of Southern California and I've worked with medical doctors who are seeking to become specialized in their chosen field of Otolaryngology at the University of Nevada as Program Coordinator. My drive, determination, perseverance has helped me attain these career opportunities and have solidified my passion for working in higher education. Having the opportunity to work with students from different backgrounds and academic concentrations allowed me to become an individual with strong leadership and problem-solving skills paired with a prowess for professional and academic excellence.

David

AIMS Prep Tutor • +17 Subjects

I am a Special Education teacher, primarily at the middle school level. My school experience was difficult, as I struggled with ADHD, and ended up leaving high school early by passing a proficiency test. I love working with students who are struggling, because I have an appreciation for how difficult and boring school can be, but I also have come to truly appreciate the value and importance of education. I believe it's up to the teacher to make learning fun and rewarding, and that is what I strive for in all my lessons.In my teaching jobs, I work with students with learning and emotional disabilities. I have also run after school enrichment programs for gifted students that have received commendations from state officials. I specialize in tailoring instruction to the learner's strengths, particularly for more visual learners. My instruction on fractions has been called the clearest the interviewer had seen.I am a generalist up through the high school level in content. In math I can teach up through Geometry effectively, and I have a great method for writing essays up through the college level. I've taught reading from the Kindergarten Phonics up through middle school and high school literature. My greatest asset as a tutor and teacher is my patience with my students.In my free time I love to read, play board and tabletop games and bicycle. I've coached soccer, and enjoy playing soccer and watching the Portland Timbers.

A Beginner's Guide: Excel Tutor • +58 Subjects

I have been a teacher for over 10 years in the beautiful state of VA. I have taught several grades from 2nd to 8th grade. I love to teach and I think the best part is sharing my knowledge over a variety of subjects and making connections to previous experiences or existing background knowledge. I tutor in all subjects: math, history, science, and language arts - in grades K-8th. I believe that teaching includes building interest and engagement with students. When they are interested in the topic, they are more willing to participate, ask questions, and ultimately master the content.

Diane

ACT Writing Tutor • +50 Subjects

I have taught students in various subjects from Kindergarten to the collegiate level. I have been a private tutor for almost 12 years now. I have a BA in English and a JD, both of which have required me to develop my language and particularly writing skills. I have student taught college Chemistry, and I have written Continued Learning materials for a Continuing Legal Education symposium. I worked as a nanny for over 8 years before I had my own child. I am quite familiar with being around children and encouraging them to grow. I have never had a student under my instruction not succeed, which is an accomplishment I am quite proud of. My students walk away from the classroom understanding the material.
