I am a current ELA Middle School Teacher in New York City. I have provided whole and small group reading instruction aligned to the Common Core Standards. Before moving to New York in late 2011, I completed my Master's degree at Boston University in Teaching and Curriculum.Teaching is not only instructional but social, and it is rooted in building relationships. While it is important to be firm, it's equally important to have a relationship with students and parents. My philosophy stems from years of public service after college. In 2008 I was a corps member at City Year Boston in which I taught literacy to disadvantaged students. Soon after, I joined Teach For America in 2009 as a corps member and worked in the Boston Public School system. I was lucky enough to teach a range of grades (Grade 2-8) in both public and private school settings.I enjoy teaching, moreover I love READING! Literacy is my passion. Teaching kids to read is a difficult task; there is no one magic bullet. There are many factors I target while teaching or supporting a struggling/reluctant reader. I also try to instill a joy of reading to struggling/reluctant readers by exposing the student to different types of literature and using other methods. I tutor students as an opportunity to reach more students and support them with reading. I look forward to working with your child.

I am a graduate of Wayne State University and Central Michigan University. Prior to the country being shut down due to COVID-19, I was taking classes at Oakland County Community College to keep up with my soft skills and business skills. I have a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering and a Master of Administration in Science Degree. I have enough credits to get an associate in Education and Business Administration. Currently, I spend a lot of time studying physics as it relates to the human body and how the human body functions. I am in the process of obtaining a Health Coaching Certification.I have been a substitute teacher in the Detroit Michigan area in the past. Also, I have tutored students in as part of supporting the program "No Child Left Behind" through Tutor Mates. I am passionate about physics. My motto is math is vital and important, and physics makes the world churn. It is foundational to everything we do on this planet and in this universe.I have learned that there are multiple learning styles and I like to meet students where they are to explore and bring out their learning style. This is typically a pivot point from going to struggling to grasping concepts. There is a point when the light bulb comes on, and it is an exhilarating experience for both the student and the teacher or coach.

I recently graduated from UPenn, with a major in Neuroscience. I also have a great deal of background in English and Editing, as I was fortunate enough to publish a young adult series in high school. I have had experience tutoring a number of subjects from grades K-12. I always try to match my students' pace and use all of the resources I can to make sure they fully understand the subject.

Hello! I am a former Environmental Manager, Real Estate Broker and most importantly, Tutor. I realize these are not the most similar of positions. I have tutored extensively within CPS through the Sit Stay Read non-profit among other organizations. I have tutored many kids with unique and different learning styles. I have also tutored ESL with Heartland Alliance. I graduated from the University of Illinois in Champaign-Urbana ( a few years ago) having studied Political Science and Biology.What else? I am the proud mom of two magnificent kids with learning disabilities. I also write slightly less informative reviews on Yelp, as a style decision. I am a music enthusiast, run most days ( my HS track coach would be quite surprised by that), and believe in perseverance.

I am a graduate of the University of Southern Indiana, where I received a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics Teaching. I have experience teaching both high school and middle school math. I am passionate about all areas of math, and I love helping students better understand math because it is such an essential subject. I especially enjoy teaching algebra classes because algebra is an important building block for all other math concepts. Helping a student understand a math concept that they have struggled with for so long brings me an immense amount of joy. I like to use visuals and hands-on activities when teaching, but most importantly, I like to discover what my students' individual learning styles are and teach to their specific needs.

I recently graduated from the University of Pittsburgh with a B.S. in Mathematics and Economics as well as a B.A. in Philosophy. This fall, I will be continuing my studies at the University of Michigan as I pursue a PhD in Economics, and I hope to work as a professor in applied microeconomics after completing my degree. While economics is what I am most passionate about, I have also really enjoyed studying mathematics, which I was able to pursue extensively as an undergraduate. As a tutor, I hope not only to push my students to excel but also to help them begin to enjoy their studies as well (as difficult as that may be for high school students!). In line with my aspirations to work in higher education, I believe that education is an incredibly important and rewarding endeavor, and I look forward to watching my students succeed. In my spare time, I enjoy running, reading and cooking.

I enjoy helping people learn and thrive. I have a Bachelor's Degree in English Education and a Master's Degree in Special Education. Since teaching for over 19 years, I've learned that there are many styles of learning and that earning can be a lot of fun. There are many techniques and strategies that I have enjoyed sharing with my students to give them confidence in reading, writing, public speaking, and more. Some of my personal interests are movies, music, traveling, my family, my dog (Benji), working out, sports (especially basketball) and shopping.

I have experience teaching K-8, high school and college-age math and science. This includes Algebra 1 and 2, Earth, Physical (chem) and Life Science, Genetics, Nutrition, Biology, Microbiology and more. I have also tutored students preparing for college and graduate preparatory exams. I have spent the past year lecturing college Microbiology and the previous 2 years teaching math and science at the middle school level; last summer I worked at a Pre-K/daycare center. I have tutored countless biological subjects in college and graduate school. I received my B.S. in Environmental Biology from the SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry in New York and my M.S. in Environmental Systems (Engineering) from The University of California- Merced. I tutor all ages and sub-topics within the realm of science, as well as middle school math. I have experience working with students of varying abilities and I'm skilled at assessing needs, deficiencies, and meeting students where they're at. Being in academia for the majority of my life, I know what concepts are important for students to understand not only for academic success, but for genuine understanding of subject matter and future use.

An Iowa native, I earned my B.S., Biology and then Ph.D. in genetics at the University of Iowa. I then embarked on a series of postdoctoral research appointments that examined a wide variety of plant biology questions, from genome assembly (Massachusetts General Hospital/Harvard Medical School) and identification and localization of cell-specific patterns of plant gene expression (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory). I found an intellectual and professional home when my family and I moved to Wisconsin and I began work at the UW-Madison in 1996. Here, I continued to researches that explored, for examples, the hormonal control of plants embryo development (Department of Genetics), fungal population dynamics on the leaves of apple trees (Department of Plant Pathology), development and implementation of a high-throughput, semiautomated pipeline to localize transposon insertion sites in the model plant Arabidopsis (Horticulture Department) and, finally, on the development of improved tools and hands-on approaches to help students (and their teachers!) learn modern genetics (Biochemistry Department.)One constant throughout my career in higher education and research has been to serve as mentor to undergraduate students and summer high school interns, nearly all of whom had had no prior experience in scientific research. In my work with Rick Amasino, UW Biochem, I had the privilege and responsibility to mentor almost 100 students from 2006 2019. We recently conducted a longitudinal survey to determine the educational and professional outcomes of former students and, to our delight, we found that all graduated with degrees in STEM fields and at least 2/3 continued their education to earn post-graduate degrees in biomedical research and/or have assumed careers in professions that require deep knowledge of genetic and genomic sciences. I attribute that success to a teaching philosophy that prioritizes development of critical thinking skills and encouragement of an approach in which every failurewhether on an exam or in the conduct of experimentsis viewed as an opportunity to learn from one's mistakes and thereby gain a deeper, richer level of understanding.
