Hi there! I graduated from the Medical University of South Carolina with an M.S. in Genetic Counseling in May 2026. A significant portion of my training focused on educating patients and their families about complex genetic topics. I am excited about the opportunity to apply that to students as well! In undergrad, I triple majored in biology, psychology, and neuroscience. I am more than happy to assist with any STEM subjects, essay editing, application materials, and more - check out my full list! Happy Studying!

There are few things more enjoyable than explaining and demonstrating to others things that you are passionate about. Teaching is often described in such terms, helping others learn the subject or subjects that keep life interesting. While I do not feel called to be a teacher at this point in my life (although I will be teaching English in the Czech Republic in the future), I see tutoring as an excellent way of teaching, and of sharing my passion, by finding strategies that work best for a single student and by having particular, well defined goals.I graduated from the University of South Carolina with a BA in Political Science and a Minor in Philosophy, and through this liberal arts education stimulated my interest in everything from Human Rights Theory, Mathematics, the History of Warfare, and so on. I, so far, tutor in multiple historical subjects, Critical Reading/English, Writing, Social Studies, and Algebra.Of these subjects, I am most comfortable in Critical Reading/English Comp. and History. My view on teaching these subjects is that a tutor's job is to find the intersection between a student's learning style, interests, and the subject at hand. This does not mean the student doesn't have to remember hard facts, ideas, and dates, but that this necessary process is best facilitated when students can connect what they are learning to the world they are currently familiar with, both on a day-to-day level, and also in terms of why the world is the way it is today. On subjects such as reading comprehension, students can be shown the importance of making distinctions, knowing the intended audience etc. by connecting such abilities to performance in areas they already feel are important, and then using these new skills to broaden their horizons educationally.Overall I want to approach each student as an individual with unique needs and unique abilities. The advantage of tutoring is that this can be done fairly easily, whereas even a highly competent teacher may not have the ability to reach each individual student and unlock their full potential in a subject.Outside of my academic interests (which are many), I enjoy hiking, chopping wood with big axes, shooting paper and flying clay targets, listening to bluegrass music, post-rock, and jazz music and watching (good) Westerns. While I oddly never have gotten into swimming, I enjoy sailing and kayaking on Lake Norman when I have time. I am currently trying to get into HEMA (Historical European Martial Arts) and other combat sports.

I am a teacher-turned-school librarian in the Charlotte-area. I have experience working with students K-5. My students have shown more than a year's growth in both reading and math. I look forward to working with your child!

I am a patient and kind teacher and tutor. I love teaching and tutoring because it makes a difference in the lives of other people. No matter how challenging my students' work may seem, they will have my support and encouragement. I welcome your input, and I enjoy seeing my students build their confidence, make progress, and meet their goals. I am also a global citizen who respects and values people of various cultures, backgrounds, and ages.I have earned a Ph.D. in English (Morgan State University), a 120-Hour TEFL certification (myTEFL/Footprints Language Education), an Intermediate Spanish Certificate (la Universidad Autnoma Benito Juarez de Oaxaca), an M.A. in African American Studies (University of Iowa), and more than 18 hours in graduate-level history. I am a member of Phi Beta Kappa and Golden Key.I have taught more than 10 years at the college and high school levels, including English, writing, literature, U.S. history, African American history, world civilization, film studies, and screenwriting. I teach and tutor in these subject areas. I am also an artist who teaches drawing classes.During the second half of my career as an educator, I have witnessed too many young people being disqualified from opportunities and struggling to adapt to college-level work because they were weak in basic skills. Despite having graduated from high school, their reading, writing, analytical, and problem-solving skills were below high school level. Year after year, the problem has worsened. I am a teacher who can help prevent this from happening to your child.Since 2011, I have also been a copy editor and proofreader. I edit all types of formal and informal writing for grammar, sentence structure, efficiency, and clarity.My experience also includes four years as an Upward Bound academic counselor and one year as the coordinator of a homework center and summer program for elementary school children. Therefore, I have worked with small children, preteens, teens, and adults successfully.My talents and skills also include poetry, art, and storytelling. I have written poetry since I was a child. I have let my students read and write parodies and compare poems to songs in the literature classes that I have taught. I have conducted poetry workshops for K-12 classes and community organizations.I have been drawing since I was a toddler watching re-runs of the campy Batman TV series (from way before my time) and trying to imitate what I saw. As I got older, I drew other comic book characters and Transformers. I took art classes in high school and college. Later, I taught a drawing workshop (basic drawing and anime/manga) as part of the weekend and summer activities for an Upward Bound program (a pre-college program for grades 9-12).My Ph.D. in English includes a concentration in Film Studies and Screenwriting, and I have been a movie script analyst since 2011. I have rated scripts for writers, production companies, and screenwriting contests.My awards include the Adele V. Holden Creative Writing Excellence Award (portfolio of screenplays).At the Cannes Film Festival, I screened and represented Filmsnoir's short film "Prodigal" while I was also an intern for Panorama Media (Annapurna's film distribution).I am a creative and versatile person whose interests are quite diverse. I like current and classic music, movies, television, and comics--especially action, comedy, sports, wrestling, martial arts, and anime. My huge kung fu collection includes the work of Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan, Jet Li, Angela Mao, and the Venom Mob. I also have plenty of Shaw Bros, Golden Harvest, and American-made films. Some of my favorite anime are Rurouni Kenshin, Yu Yu Hakusho, Hunter x Hunter, Gatchaman, and Bleach.My favorite adventures include ziplining in Mexico as well as screening my colleague's short film, attending movie premieres, and walking the red carpet twice at the Cannes Film Festival in France.

I have been teaching young people to speak German since I was twenty seven years old. From age twenty-one on, I have been learning German. After all of these years, learning and teaching are still part of what my students and I do every day, and I love it.I started speaking German in August of 1991. I was twenty-one years old, had a decent grasp of Spanish, despite not having had any formal training, and I heard the German professor was great, so I decided to learn German. Within a few weeks, I had found my new favorite subject, and I've been hooked ever since. I love seeing my students go from being shy children, to young adults able to navigate their way around German speaking countries, without fear or apprehension. I love listening to my students speak to each other, and their German counterparts in German, and I love seeing their non-German-speaking peers look at them with envy, although they would never say anything.Mostly, I love the fact that students go from an isolated American, to a person with genuine contact and opportunity in a part of the world, about which they had only previously heard, and much of that knowledge contained only part of the story, when it comes to the richness of Germanic culture.

I have a passion for helping anyone be successful, especially in math. I really love helping students understand seemingly complex ideas in math.Although I have been teaching math for over 20 years, math never gets stale. I love to keep learning and to see familiar problems in a new light.I would love to have the opportunity to inspire you and to help you with algebra, pre-calculus and calculus!

My name is Naomi and I'm a kind and engaging teacher ready to work with you and SUPPORT you. I know first hand the importance of having educators who teach with compassion and provide a variety of explanations to meet each learner where they're at.

I am an incoming first-year medical student with a deep passion for the human body and mind. As a student who thrived with tutoring, I love teaching students how to think about problems and answer tough questions.
