Poetry and nature literature were the texts that first made Emma want to teach — she built weekly reading-centered lesson plans around them for students from preschool through 12th grade at Chautauqua Institution, adapting how she approached a piece depending on whether a seven-year-old or a teenager was sitting across from her. That range, plus her Education minor at Cornell, means she can adjust quickly between a student who needs help retelling a simple story and one who's learning to track theme across a full novel. Rated 5.0 by students.

Studying ancient Greek and Roman texts at Duke alongside a biology major gave Emma an unusual reading range — she's comfortable unpacking everything from dense scientific literature to classical prose translated across millennia. She teaches students to slow down and trace how an author builds an argument or narrative, picking up on structural cues that make even unfamiliar material feel navigable. Rated 4.9 by students.

Strong reading comprehension comes down to knowing what to do when a passage doesn't click on the first pass. Sunay teaches active reading strategies — annotation, summarizing paragraphs in the margins, identifying an author's purpose before diving into details — that he refined while prepping students for the ACT Reading section, where he scored a 33 composite.

Before a student can succeed in any subject, they need to be a confident, active reader — someone who questions the text, tracks ideas across paragraphs, and adjusts their pace for different material. Amos teaches these metacognitive reading habits explicitly, whether the student is working through fiction, nonfiction, or standardized test passages. His two decades of experience across educational settings give him a sharp eye for where comprehension breaks down.

Strong reading comprehension isn't just about understanding individual words — it's about tracking how ideas connect across sentences and paragraphs. Beth unpacks strategies like annotating for main ideas, distinguishing fact from opinion, and making inferences from context clues. Her approach turns reading from a passive activity into an active, deliberate skill.

Between an Animal Sciences degree and full-time work as a biotech research associate, Brittany spends her days parsing dense lab protocols and scientific papers where misreading one line can derail an entire experiment — a habit that sharpens how she teaches reading comprehension at any level. She breaks passages into manageable pieces, showing students how to identify what a paragraph is actually saying before moving on to the next, building the kind of deliberate reading practice that carries from science articles to literature. Her 32 ACT reflects that same careful, strategic approach to text.

I am a Yale grad, Johns Hopkins master's candidate, and certified early childhood educator. At Yale, I studied History and Child Development. I went on to teach with Teach For America, and I am currently in my 3rd year of teaching. Tutoring has been an interest of mine for many years. I started tutoring when I was in middle school, and I haven't stopped. I thoroughly enjoy working with students of all ages to help supplement their learning. I am looking forward to helping your child to meet his/her goals!

I am a current student at the University of Pennsylvania majoring in English and minoring in journalism and art history. I am very passionate about literature, writing and history, and I love sharing my knowledge and learning new things. In the past few years, I have worked with young children learning to read and high school Latin students, and I also love working with students on improving Standardized Test results. In my spare time, I love reading, music and anything active!

I am a 2nd year medical student at Northeast Ohio Medical University and have tutored K-12 and college students over the past 10 years in various subjects ranging from math and science to SAT prep and language arts. My educational background includes an MPA in Development Practice from Columbia University's School of International and Public Affairs, a B.S. in Molecular, Cell, & Developmental Biology, and a B.S. in Mathematics-Economics (both from UCLA). In addition, I have scored in the 99th percentile on the SAT, ACT, and GMAT exams and scored in the 95th percentile on the MCAT. I really enjoy working with students of all ages and backgrounds and believe all students are capable of learning and being successful with the right approach to education. I would love the chance to discuss in more detail what kind of tutoring you or your student is interested in and thank you for your consideration!

I'm entering my senior year at Case Western Reserve University. I'm happy to provide tutoring services for those interested in improving their academic performance or exam preparation. The subjects which I am most proficient include SAT Math, Algebra 1 , Algebra 2, Middle School Math, Pre-Algebra, Pre-Calculus, and Trigonometry.

I am currently working towards a BS in Music Education at Case Western Reserve University. In the past I have worked with middle school orchestra students at an arts summer camp, where I was a volunteer Teacher's Assistant. During this camp I ran sectionals with small groups of students and sat in with the violinists to help individual students in large group rehearsals. I have some tutoring and organization experience by working with my high school's chapter of the California Scholarship Federation, where we offered free tutoring to other high school students. I am most passionate about tutoring algebra and pre-calculus, because I really enjoy the problem-solving aspects of math. I also tutor English and SAT prep. In my free time I enjoy cooking, reading, and practicing as many different instruments as I can get my hands on!

I am a full-time college student in the honors program at my university studying English Literature, Film & Media Arts, and Psychology. When tutoring, I specialize in English and am also experienced in tutoring select high school and college Psychology classes. I am a highly engaged tutor who incorporates success coaching into her sessions. I am not only here to help you or your student improve in a subject area, but also to teach study habits, provide encouragement, and work as a role model for becoming a lifelong learner.

An effective educator must be able to recognize each individual student's learning style and to adapt the lesson to accommodate that style. Also, each student has a different rate of learning. Thus, the lessons must be directed not only towards ensuring the student masters the material but also keeps the student engaged in and enthusiatic about the education process. Finally, the effective tutor must remember that the end goal of the learning process is not only to master a defined set of knowledge and skills, but also to learn "how to learn;" in this way the student will be better equipped to thrive in an ever changing environment.

I am a seasoned educator with over 14 years of teaching experience. I currently am a middle school principal but have taught grades 3-college. I am no stranger to Common Core and can help students master material with tried and true strategies!
