Nadine

ACT English Tutor • +14 Subjects

I am a pre-medical student studying neuroscience at the University of Michigan. I have a lot of experience with tutoring elementary-aged children with various special needs, but my skills are not limited to this demographic. I love grammar, so if this is something you struggle with, particularly on the ACT, I would be a great fit. I also really enjoy math classes, and have excelled through calculus 1. My skill set goes beyond these two subjects, so look through my subject list to see if there is something else that may better suit your needs. I would love to help you out, so feel free to let me know if you would like to work with me!

Clynese

CogAT Prep Tutor • +10 Subjects

I am a graduate of Prairie View A&M University. I received my Bachelors of Liberal Arts and Sciences with a specialty in English and I am currently seeking to get my Master's in Education. Since graduation, I have worked in various classroom settings across the Houston and Spring Area. Through these opportunities, I have worked with students to enhance their knowledge and skills according to the state standards. In order to achieve this goal, I implemented many strategies such as small group instruction, one-on-one instruction, and engaging activities. I am very passionate about the process of reading and writing. I believe that today's youth struggle with comprehending what they read and being able to transfer that into coherent thoughts. My experience is that when this concept is introduced through familiar concepts, it is easier for the student to process. I find great pleasure in helping students tie those pieces together and become critical thinkers. I can't wait to join you on your journey!

Kevin

ACT English Tutor • +14 Subjects

I am a recent graduate of American University in Washington DC. I received my BA in Political Science. Prior to attending college, I graduated from the West Windsor Plainsboro School District, so I understand how stressful and competitive academics can be in and around this area. I tutor several subjects though I am strongest in the humanities particularly in preparation for the AP European/American History exams as well as the AP American Government/Comparative Politics exams. I also offer ACT/SAT Writing, ACT/SAT Reading, SAT Verbal and ACT English tutoring. My approach to tutoring is centered on the belief that nothing is particularly difficult if you just break it down into small parts. For example, things like Advanced Placement tests and standardized tests when viewed as a whole can seem like daunting tasks which require lots of higher order reading, writing, and thinking skills. However, when they are approached question by question and broken down into series of basic tasks, they become much more manageable. In my spare time I enjoy reading, particularly nonfiction books on the areas I tutor in such as history and politics.

Anatomy Tutor • +13 Subjects

I attended Birmingham-Southern College for my undergraduate studies, and received a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology. After working for two years, I attended the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, earning a Ph.D in Genes and Development. My studies there were focused on Immunology, Cancer and Genetics. Since graduation, I have worked in the biotech industry, lectured in Microbiology and am currently doing research on vaccine development.I enjoy one on one teaching, and just discussing science in general. It's always a thrill when the light goes on for someone. I am a follower of all fields of science and technology, and try to incorporate new ideas into my work at all times. In my spare time, I build computers, read history and science fiction and go to movies with my wife.

Melissa

Elementary School Tutor • +8 Subjects

I am a recipient of Who's Who Among America's teaching award. I love tutoring students so I can get to know them and help them improve skills in reading and math. I have been tutoring students for the last seventeen years. I have also done home-bound tutoring for students with special needs. I have been a special education teacher and love working one to one or in small groups with students I tutor. I have a Bachelor's degree in Special Education from Illinois State University, a Graduate degree in Curriculum and Instruction from Concordia University, and another Advanced Graduate degree from Northern Illinois University as a Reading Specialist. I enjoy tutoring in writing and math, but my passion is tutoring in reading because I struggled with learning how to read when I was in school. I am passionate about helping my students improve writing, math, and reading because I struggled in school with those subjects.

Katherine

Algebra Tutor • +34 Subjects

I graduated from Worcester Polytechnic Institute in Massachusetts. I received my Bachelors of Science in Computer Science. I was lucky enough to travel to San Fransisco, CA for a co-op before COVID-19 but, since then, I have found myself enjoying the city life of Boston, MA. I am passionate about STEM and introducing these subjects to students as early as possible. At first glance, STEM learning may seem intimidating, but early and consistent exposure is key to tackling it later on in students' learning careers. Outside of academia, I like exploring museums and pop-up exhibits. I have also found that a stroll around the neighborhood calms the busy mind and recommend it to anyone in need of a break.

Alexis

AP Economics Tutor • +26 Subjects

I am a current student at Harvard Law School. I have a certificate in Business Fundamentals from the Harvard Business School. I graduated from the Burnett Honors College at the University of Central Florida with a dual degree in History and Political Science, minoring in Economics. I was my class commencement speaker for my graduation from the Honors College and was named to the Order of the Pegasus Class of 2014, along with 19 of my peers (out of a total graduation class of more than 12,500). I took two years off between undergrad and law school to travel and teach.I have over seven years of tutoring experience in a broad range of subjects. I’m passionate about all things History and Geography-related (I have a collection of old maps and books), though I also really enjoy teaching U.S. Government, World History, and Political Science-type subjects. I pride myself in having an adaptable teaching style that allows me to break down difficult concepts into simple, easy-to-understand ideas.

Grant

ACT English Tutor • +15 Subjects

For the past two years, I've been working with students from my university honors college to help improve their writing. My favorite part of the job is the variety of it: each day brings a different topic, a different assignment, sometimes even a different student. I love getting to hear their ideas and help uncover their unique voice and perspective. Helping that voice develop--getting rid of all the bad habits, fuzzy language, and grammatical confusion that get in the way of what you really mean--has always been a big part of my job. Whether we're working on a lab report, a history paper, a personal essay, or a book report, my goal is to help make not just better grades, but better writers. Good writing develops critical thinking and clear communication. It can take you a thousand different places.Right now, Im a tutor, an editor & writer for a magazine, and a student. Much of my time in college has been spent studying the humanities, especially English literature, but Ive also had the chance to become close with people who have completely different focuses. From artistic and creative-minded people (I helped start an annual arts review at my school last year) to industry and STEM-oriented people like my roommate, Ive learned a lot about the different paths you can take. Next year, Ill get to put some of that knowledge to use as a Resident Mentor in the flagship living/learning colleges my university is launching. Ive loved my time in college and engaged it deeply on every level; one day, I hope to teach at a university. For now, Im excited to work closely with students of all bents to help them develop toward their next step, however it may look.

Molly

Academic Coaching Tutor • +28 Subjects

I recently graduated from UCLA with a Bachelor of Science in Neuroscience and a minor in Spanish in June 2018. I am currently living in Santa Barbara and getting ready to apply to medical school.Science has always been a passion of mine, which is why I desire to pursue a career in healthcare. Another contributor to this desire is my love of helping others. I have dedicated a lot of time in both high school and college mentoring and tutoring others. I always participated in peer study groups while in college, especially for my science classes; I loved learning from others as well as teaching them subjects I loved and understood. Additionally, I have helped high school students study for the ACT and SAT, write their personal statements, and write their scholarship application essays. I love writing, and I believe that peer support and revision in the writing process is very important. I enjoy helping others with their writing as well as editing their essays. Additionally, I love to study languages and their linguistic components. Both English and Spanish are my favorite subjects to teach to others.In my free time, I enjoy hanging out with my family and friends and going to the beach. I also really enjoy sports, especially soccer and golf.
