Over my 20-year career in academia, I have had the privilege of being a student or research academic at many universities -- including Princeton University, University of Alaska Fairbanks, University of Wisconsin-Madison, Eastern Michigan University, Lock Haven University of Pennsylvania, and Madison College. As a polymath graduating with highest honors, Summa Cum Laude (3.98 GPA), I earned a second bachelor's degree in Professional Geology with a noncompulsory minor in Earth Science (i.e., hydrologic and atmospheric sciences) from Eastern Michigan University in 2021.As part of my geology field work, I was one of a few individuals competitively selected from outside the University of Alaska to take part in UAF's prestigious summer field geology program. Given that my field work entailed cruising the Alaskan wilderness in bush planes to remote regions of the alpine tundra and learning how to fend against grizzlies, I have anything but a typical geology education.In addition to receiving many academic distinctions (fellowships, scholarships, and awards) across my career and several publications in world-class peer-reviewed journals such as the Journal of Paleontology, Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, and Current Biology, I have also had digital illustrations featured in publications such as Nature, The New York Times, New Scientist, and Discover Magazine. I was a student member of professional organizations such as The Geological Society of America, the American Institute of Professional Geologists, and more.I was previously Lead Instructor for a National Science Foundation supported education technology startup. I served approximately 10,000 secondary students over that career and have been lauded by educators in top-rated school districts for my capacity to distill complex ideas into easy to digest metaphors and analogies.No matter whether you are a high school environmental student, a gen-ed fulfilling undergraduate, or a budding geoscientist, if you want to academically succeed, contact me.

Teaching students is my passion. I have been teaching and coaching for 20 years. I have taught General Education, Special Education, High School, Middle School, and Elementary students. I received my Bachelor's and Master's degrees from Eastern Michigan University, and am currently a Doctoral student there as well. Outside of teaching I like to coach. I have coached Football, Men's and Women's Basketball, Softball, and Baseball, although currently I am only coaching Football. My major hobby is Reading. I enjoy reading almost anything, but I particularly like Historical novels and Biographical novels. My reason for tutoring is to provide support for students who are currently experiencing difficulty in a subject area where I may be able to help. My background in Special Education has taught me to look at teaching from different outlooks to help students achieve success, instead of attacking a subject from just one direction.

I believe that every student is capable of obtaining knowledge in any given field. Everyone has a class or field that they naturally struggle in (mine is art), but enough time for extra thought and effort will make your goals in the class achievable. I enjoy helping provide that effort and achievement. I graduated from Eastern Michigan University with a Bachelor's of Science in Actuarial Science & Economics in April/2014, and graduated from DePaul University with a Master's of Science in Applied Mathematics. I currently work for the Bureau of Labor Statistics as an Economist.I always liked using numbers to quantify and interpret certain problems; strange to some I know.I will be glad to tutor anyone in courses that require math and/or economic reasoning. Asking why and how a problem is done instead of just asking for the answer is what I'm looking for in a student. I can be of assistance for the whole semester or just for a test coming up for the class. As long as we are scheduling time to ask why and how to approach the problems, I am on board.

Memory updated Here's an enhanced version of your statement of purpose: With over 20 years of teaching experience, I have had the privilege of working with diverse learners across grades K-12, teaching a wide range of core subjects. Currently, I teach high school English at an alternative school, where I support students who have not found success in traditional public school settings. I hold certifications in English (K-12), Elementary Content (K-6), and Special Education (K-12), with extensive expertise in developing and implementing Individualized Education Programs (IEPs) to meet the specific needs of each student. My teaching philosophy centers on a student-first approach, where I prioritize building confidence, fostering critical thinking, and tailoring instruction to align with individual learning styles. I am passionate about making learning both enjoyable and impactful, ensuring that my sessions are not only focused on strengthening academic skills but also inspired by students' personal interests. My goal is to empower every learner with the tools they need to succeed and grow, no matter the challenges they face.

I love to help students build on their strengths and while working on opportunities. Understand their goals and challenges. I ensure students have a clear understanding of fundamentals, develop a love for learning and help them succeed

I am an experienced teacher who is dedicated to helping people improve their language skills. I've been a teacher for the last ten years with a diverse background. Teaching is my passion. It is the only job I see myself doing. I feel most comfortable when in front of a class or helping others on an individual basis.I first starting tutoring in 2001 while studying to be a secondary English teacher at Eastern Michigan University. This experience helped kindle my passion for teaching, especially working with students one on one. After receiving my bachelor's degree in English education, I went back to my alma mater to refine my knowledge in English literature and writing. While studying for my MA in literature, I worked closely with my classmates in study groups. We helped each other break down difficult texts into their essential parts, thus making class discussions and term papers easier to manage. After graduating with honors, I started working at a small community college in Dearborn, Michigan. At Henry Ford Community College, I taught two sections developmental composition. My classes focused on grammar, usage, voice, and creation. Most of my students were either students who spoke English as their second language or who were first generation college students. After a year at HFCC, I spent seven years teaching English as a foreign language in South Korea. I mostly worked with elementary and middle school students, but I did have some adult students as well. I loved helping non-native English speakers improve their language skills, and I loved seeing my younger students develop in all language areas.Outside of teaching, I enjoy reading, listening to music, and spending time with my wife and dog. I am an avid reader who enjoys all genres of writing. I also enjoy listening to all sorts of music and discovering new bands and/or artists.

I received my Bachelor of Arts in Global and International Studies from Michigan State University and I am currently pursuing my Master of Arts in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL). I have primarily worked with adult ESL/EFL learners, as well as middle school EFL learners. My favorite subjects to tutor are adult ESL/EFL, College English, English Grammar and Syntax, Adult Literacy, and Essay Editing. I am passionate about helping people to reach their full potential in order to reach their goals. I also like to make the tutoring process enjoyable for the learner.

I am a recently retired Secondary Math teacher. I taught at the high school level for 40 years. During that time I also tutored students after school. I have taught/tutored all classes from Algebra I to Pre-Calc, and I enjoy teaching and tutoring all Math subject areas. My last 15 years I primarily taught AP Statistics, Algebra II, Pre-Calc, and Trigonometry.I received my BS degree from Ferris State University and achieved a Masters Equivalent from Eastern Michigan University. As education has changed, so has my teaching philosophy. I view myself as a source, as opposed to the source of information. I try to get my students to not only know how to solve a problem but to understand why those steps have to be taken. I also encourage them to look for alternative ways to approach a situation. I believe these techniques help the students to develop a stronger understanding of Mathematics.In addition to teaching for 40 years, I also coached basketball and golf at the high school level, and I was a head varsity coach for both sports for over 25 years. At home I enjoy playing golf, working on my lawn and garden, bird watching, and working out.

I am a graduate of Eastern Michigan University, Oakland Community College and the Art Institute of MI. I received my Certificate in Web Design from Oakland Community College, an Associate of Applied Science in Graphic Design from the Art Institute and a Bachelor of Science in Communication Technology from Eastern Michigan University. I have been teaching people throughout as during my time in college I have often helped classmates with their assignments and in understanding the subjects, as well as being often asked at my jobs to be the one to train new employees that have been hired, I've also been brought in to tutor children as an assistant from time to time. My main specialty of tutoring falls under the category of graphic and web design in subjects such as HTML, CSS, Photoshop, Illustrator, Indesign, After Effects and other adobe programs, however I am also able to tutor in some Math. My approach to tutoring is that I try to appeal to the individual I'm teaching, and try to explain it in a way that appeals to said learning style, if I'm tutoring someone that learns better with visuals then I will be using more pictures and other visual aids, while as someone who prefers reading I can simply read to them by the book. I am a firm believer that programing is the future, and I hope that I can teach my skills in such fields to those children so they can have a bright successful future. In my spare time, I enjoy some video games, as well as watching anime/reading manga from time to time, as well as trying to learn more about the subjects of interest to me.

I am a lifelong learner, with 10+ years of experience teaching college level reading and writing courses. I am obtaining my PhD in Literature studies, and have interest in teaching 18th / 19th century British Literature at the college level. Additionally, I enjoy reading and teaching contemporary American texts, and working with web-based composition and teaching methods.As a teacher, I have worked with flipped classroom methods and social pedagogy. I get to know each student's learning style and preferred communication method prior to tutoring/teaching, in order to make course material / subject matter more accessible, engaging, and inviting to them. I value student success and growth in my classrooms and tutoring sessions, exercising patience and great care with each individual. Quite simply, I enjoy watching people learn and grow as students and writers!

I received my Bachelor of Science degree and Elementary School [K-8] certification from Eastern Michigan University in 1999. I earned a Master of Public Administration degree with a focus on Educational Leadership [K-12] from the University of Michigan in 2011. I'm certified to teach in Maryland, grades K-6 with an endorsement in reading. In Michigan, my certification is for grades K-8 with an endorsement in science.During my 20+ years as an educator, I have been fortunate to serve in a variety of roles.

I am a college student at Eastern Michigan University and my major is Music Education. I have been a tutor for 2 years at my high school and I've taught Math (Algebra, Geometry, and Pre-Calculus), History (U.S, World, and European), and finally Music Theory. I have taught both High school and College students. I am fit to teach any Music, History, Math, or English due to the AP and Advance classes I have took. I prefer teaching music and math since those are my strongest attributes. I believe that everyone has a right to education and should make the most out of learning and growing your brain

I have taught Spanish throughout the K-12 levels. I have taught elementary K-4 Spanish,high school Spanish 1 and 2, and most recently, middle school Spanish 1 which is the equivalentto a high school Spanish 1 course. I have a Master's Degree in Curriculum and Instruction which I put to use when implementing the elementary Spanish curriculum in our district.I have taught Spanish for 21 years and was a stay at home mom for 10 years with our daughter.I have taught in Milwaukee, Ann Arbor and Pinckney, Michigan.When teaching Spanish I use games, songs, rhymes, paired activities, group activities andindividualized strategies as all students have unique learning styles. I strive to build a familyatmosphere in a classroom setting where all students can grow.I love to tutor as it is an individualized approach with 1 or more students. Students gain confidence and reinforcement in the subject area they are being tutored in when in a 1-1 setting or in a small group. They can ask questions and engage more freely when being tutored versus in a large group setting.The enjoyment and reward I get for building an excitement for learning and studying Spanish makes me an outstanding Spanish tutor.I encourage you to contact me to learn more about how I can help you to become more successful in Spanish.

I was an award-winning Algebra instructor over 30 years, combining my background in Math and Counseling, working with students having Math anxiety. I offer tutoring in your home via Skype, accessible and convenient.

I think that knowledge is power and the children are our future. I once dreamt of being a high school math teacher but resigned to studying economics in lieu of this dream. I like the relative certainty of mathematics and look forward to tutoring more people.

I am passionate and dedicated to the well-being and educational success of students and the community. My background in Elementary Education and Educational Specialist Degree in Curriculum and Instruction makes me the ideal candidate for assisting students and creating leaders. I hold a Master's degree in Curriculum, Instruction, and Assessment and an Educational Specialist degree from Kennesaw State University in Curriculum and Instruction. I can effectively teach students mastery in all areas. My knowledge base allows for me to be proficient in the field of education.

I enjoy learning and discovering new things. I learn by seeing how things are done and then trying them myself. Also, it may take a couple of attempts before I get it right.I like to tutor in the same fashion by working in a collaborative fashion and demonstrating through examples. Completely understand that it may take a couple of iterations before someone understands the concepts.

I believe that teaching is about engaging the mind. It is about introducing students to conceptual frameworks with which they can, in profound way, understand, master, and incorporate educational concepts and strategies in productive ways. In short, for me, teaching is about challenging and inspiring students to think critically.

I am a senior in the Mechanical Engineering Department at Eastern Michigan University, and I have been tutoring for about five years, from middle school to early college age students. My hobbies are painting/drawing, playing piano and guitar, and playing with my pet rats and my cat!

Are you looking for someone who can help you obtain an excellent ACT or SAT score? Does you need help in high school math or science classes? If so, I can help you achieve your goals.My name is Mathew, and I am a recently accepted medical student at the University of Cincinnati. I previously worked as a high school science teacher in Pasadena, Texas for 2 years. I specifically taught 9th grade biology and 10th grade chemistry to over 300 high schoolers. As a classroom teacher, I utilized strategies to create collaborative classroom environments where each student achieved maximal success and learning. I also utilized a variety of differentiated teaching strategies to make this possible.

For hobbies, I enjoy playing guitar and basketball, and I always enjoy a good movie with friends.Please contact me if you are interested in my tutoring services. I hope to hear from you soon!

Throughout all my work experiences, one of my favorite positions I've held was that of an instructor! In the past, I have had the opportunity to lead the instruction of basketball camps for many age groups (1st grade through high school) as well as serve as a JV high school basketball coach. The most rewarding part of being an instructor is to see the improvement of your students. With my extensive academic background and determination to help those that are struggling, I was excited about the opportunity to become an academic tutor! In 2022, I received my B.S. degree in Environmental Science from Eastern Michigan University and more recently in August 2024, I received my M.S. degree in Environmental & Forest Biology from SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry. Much of my work experiences have been focused on environmental research, performing data science using the Python and R programming languages to build and evaluate statistical models for various projects. These experiences along with my education have given me ample experiences in many mathematics, science, and data science subjects, which is what I am most excited to assist students with! I hope to guide students to find their own way of understanding and processing the information they receive in the classroom. Through thoughtful discussion of the content and guiding students through real-world applications, I hope to help students improve their performance in the classroom.

I am a passionate and creative individual who goes above and beyond for the things and the people I care about in life. Personally, I have found that my true place in life is with youth from urban backgrounds and helping them overcome the boundaries and barriers set before them due to their individual circumstances.I firmly believe that success is determined by ones ability to aide others in their journey through life towards success. Teaching, tutoring, mentoring and nurturing students is what I was created to do and my instruction runs parallel with this belief.As a Graduate of Eastern Michigan University's College of Arts and Sciences and a 2012 Masters of Arts in Education recipient from the University of Phoenix, I have found my place in this world. My goal is to guide students to their place.

I've been teaching math, physics, and economics from grades 6-12 for the last 15 years. I was certified to teach in Michigan and Illinois, and taught in both states. I have also taken classes in cognitive research, which has helped me understand how to teach most effectively so that students and properly understand and retain the information that they're learning. Because I've taught many different subjects and age groups, I have a broader understanding of teaching and learning than most educators, which helps me find a particular way to best help the individual student.

I am a graduate of Eastern Michigan University. I received my Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education. I received my Masters in Early Childhood Education from Saginaw Valley State University. I have been a classroom teacher for the last 16 years and have tutored my students and others after school. My favorite subjects are language arts and science because that is what I find to be the most interesting. I believe every person can learn, however we all have our own way of learning. Tutoring allows me to get to know my students and use techniques that will help them learn. I enjoy spending time with my family and friends at home or out at activities around the community. I love to read and when I have time enjoy making a variety of crafts.

It is my mission to help students to show growth and be successful in languages. Having earned 3 degrees in languages, curriculum, and instruction, I have been intentional in learning the best way to support and prepare the learner. Now, having taught all levels of Spanish, I understand the vertical alignment necessary to progress through each level and how to encourage the learner to advocate for themselves.

30 years experience in teaching both art k-12 and all subjects K-8.Fine artist in both painting, drawing and three dimensional arts.Ability to communicate and identify the best method of learning a student requires, either by demonstration, verbal explanation or hands on. Will use the ideal method of tutoring to accomplish the highest level of mastery possible for each lesson or activity. Patience is key in my tutoring.

I attended Eastern Michigan for both a BA and MA in literature. Additionally, I worked through half of a counseling degree before I accepted a job in New Mexico. I began my career working with students and continued for my entire professional life, almost twenty years. Not only have I interacted with students in the classroom as an instructor but also outside the classroom as a tutor/counselor/adviser. For example, I have developed, implemented and coordinated a variety of student academic and development programs. More specifically, I can assist students with just about any type of writing assignment: from development of ideas to organization to editing. Further, I can assist with literary analysis and interpretation. Study skills, organization, in-class essays, test-taking are important skills students should develop to be successful, and I can assist in those areas. For many people, public speaking and delivering a presentation causes anxiety and fear, but with a few helpful steps, it does not have to do so. One reason is that my approach to tutoring focuses on helping develop the skills necessary to be successful. Some need just a little guidance while others require a bit more structure. So there is a lot of discussion about the assignment, its goals and objectives and creating a process that addresses those areas. When I am not teaching, I like to hike throughout Red Rock and write film and Walking Dead reviews. I also have a strong passion for animal rights and am an excellent source for various perspectives on that topic from health to environment to morality. My dog’s name is Parlay, and besides licking my face too often, she’s great.

I believe it to be a fantastic honor to be able to help anyone pursue their academic goals. I believe everyone is capable of learning at a high capacity, and I will work with you to find the best approach. I have extensive experience as a substitute teacher at the High-school level and have given private music lessons for a few years as well.

I am a bilingual school-based speech-language pathologist in Milwaukee. I have been working in the schools for over 4 years supporting Spanish speaking students with communication disorders. I completed my Master's in speech-language pathology from Marquette University in 2016. I have also tutored students of all grade levels in Spanish, math, reading and writing for over 8 years, and enjoy supporting learners so they can be successful at school and work towards their goals for the future.

My approach to tutoring is identifying each individual's strengths and skills, and teaching specific strategies so the student can feel empowered to support their own learning. I am patient, thorough, and receptive to how each student learns best.

I love educating and especially educating in non-traditional environments. If you spoke to my former students I am sure they would have stories to tell of outdoor classes before social distancing was a thing! I love to be a learner with my students.Growing up in the wilds of Northern Saskatchewan and for a time without power or plumbing has given me a creative and pioneering spirit.I love to unlock what motivates each student for their own success. When you "own it" you can do it! There are more than a thousand ways to learn but none of it is possible without personal ownership. You own it, and I will work hard to give whatever tools I can!Another way to say it. If you have a "why" you will be motivated for the "how".I received my formal education in several schools over several States. I began with Philosophy at Magdalene College in New Hampshire, I studied education at Eastern Michigan University, and I went on to study Theology at the University of St. Thomas in Minnesota.The subjects I am passionate about are History, Writing, Philosophy, and Theology. I love seeking truth and I am in pursuit of wisdom wherever I can find it.
