Throughout my life I have looked at obstacles as problem solving challenges. Ultimately, when it comes to academics, we are learning new ways of thinking, logic, and the means to solve problems. At times those methodologies seem foreign to us due to their approach. Finding alternative approaches helps us all in moving forward, assimilating information, and mastering problems. I aim to arm those that I work with many tools in their approach to a given subject matter. These tools can be applied throughout the curriculum and further into the future.

I am a native Francophone originally from Gabon (West- Central Africa). I reside in Omaha, Nebraska, and yes I am a Huskers fan! I have been tutoring both French & English ever since my high school years. I love it, I enjoy it and I know how to make it fun in the process. Besides English, I am fluent in French (of course), Spanish, and I am currently working on my German. Though, I am completing a Bachelors degree in International Relations with a concentration in African Studies, I take a huge interest in American Studies, which I am planning on getting a Masters in.Here is my favorite quote which best translates my passion for languages and the reason I will make it easy and fun for you: "Speak to a man in a language he/she understands, and it goes to his/head head; Speak to a man in his/her language, and it goes to his/her heart" Nelson Mandela

Ashley Walicki (M.S. in Human Resource Management, Eastern Michigan University) is an Instructor who effectively teaches based on over 15 years of professional Human Resources experience (public and private sector) providing real-life application of HR practices, policies and theories. Her teaching philosophy includes fostering a learning environment that is conducive to open communication and collaboration among students in the classroom. Her goal as an Instructor and HR processional is not only to teach the curriculum and provide examples from her HR professional roles, but to also ensure that her students successfully complete the course by keeping a pulse on her students and assisting where applicable.

I invest in my students to facilitate their investment in themselves. I encourage a growth mindset; (taking) ownership of material; and feedback which is clear, concise but detailed, and candid but respectful of students' autonomy, dignity, and integrity. I firmly believe that education is critical to human maturity and am passionate about helping my students to see what is at stake - for us as human - in the humanities and social sciences.and, yes, even the LSAT!I welcome especially LSAT students. An aspiring lawyer (or, actually, if I am lucky enough, law professor), I will apply to law school in fall 2026. I have been studying seriously for the LSAT since fall of 2023 and have taken the LSAT three times (new one twice). I am preparing intensively to do so again in early 2026. I received a 172 on the August 2025 exam. I am passionate about sharing with my students my accumulated insights in taking on the LSAT.I specialize also in six AP social science & humanities courses: European History, Macroeconomics & Microeconomics, US Government and Politics, US History, and World History (Modern). I have worked with numerous students for each and am thoroughly familiar with the curricula and the exams. I am especially interested in helping students see, very concretely, how deeply ideas shape our world; and in improving their spoken and written expression.Last - interested seriously in the philosophy of Martin Heidegger and American constitutional interpretation, I welcome the opportunity to work with college students taking courses in these or closely related subjects.I majored in political science at UVA (B.A., 2010). I then received an M.A. (2012) and an M.Phil. (2014) in philosophy at Columbia. As a PhD student at Columbia, I served as teaching assistant for or taught numerous courses in these fields. I also taught in the university's pre-college program 2017-2023.I prefer **very strongly** to work with students who want to meet at least once a week on most weeks. The less often you want to meet, the better-served you would be by a tutor other than me.

I am a classroom instructor, one-on-one tutor, and academic coach with over a decade of experience working with elementary age students (K-6), undergraduate and graduate students in the Northeast and on the West Coast and across seas. I look forward to working with you to achieve your academic, personal and professional goals.

I come from a newspapering family. My father and my uncle were both newspaper editors, and my son Joel has carried on the tradition by being a reporter for the Atlantic City Press (and marrying an editor).One thing my father taught me was that there was no such thing as a useless piece of information. Anything you might know could show up in a newspaper story you are editing. For example, what is the name of Don Quixote's horse? (It's "Rozinante"). This came across my father's desk twice in one week in stories he was editing---and both times it was misspelled.One interest my father passed on to me was Civil War history. This was useful on two occasions, once when a visiting Australia and a writer said he was interested in seeing Civil War battlefields and I took him to see the Manassas, Antietam, and Gettysburg battlefields, and once when I was asked to write an encyclopedia article on Mathematics in the Civil War.Other interests I have acquired from my father were Wild West history, American history in general, and the sciences. I, however, did not pick up his taste for detective stories (outside of Sherlock Holmes).In the first grade my father showed me how to add with carrying, and I have been interested in mathematics ever since. I did not realize how much I was interested in math until the seventh grade when I was entered in a mental arithmetic contest. I did not win, but I did well, and ever since if I don't have a calculator, or pencil and paper handy, I will do arithmetic in my head. The same year I was placed in a class which studied the "new math" rather than traditional mathematics courses. I think I was a shining example of what the new math could do. However, in college, it was disappointing to discover that everything "new" about the new math was covered in one term of my abstract algebra class.I graduated from high school on Memorial Day weekend and the following Tuesday I started my first job in a computer center. This was back in punch-card days, and my job was mainly to sort punch cards before feeding them into the computer. I have been working with computers ever since, and in addition to a Bachelor's degree in Mathematics, I have a Master's degree in Computer Engineering.For fifteen years I worked for the Department of the Army. For most of that time I wrote and ran war-games on the computer (not video games, but the type of war games that would involve a long list of Army units and sometimes took months to complete). Other systems I programmed included the Army budget, personnel, and the Pentagon car pool assignments. Once when a piece of paperwork was missing, I called Personnel. The woman who answered the phone said not to worry, they had a wonderful computer program that kept track of that particular paperwork. "Ma'am," I said, "I wrote that program." (And I had.) The same day she tracked down the missing paperwork for me.My last assignment for the Army was planning office automation for the Corps of Engineers and writing the specifications for their new computers. After that I started working for a contractor with the Federal Aviation Administration. This time I was not a programmer but a software tester. I worked at the FAA's Technical Center in Egg Harbor Township, where we had computer systems that were exact duplicates of the ones air traffic controllers used in the field. Software written for the controllers was always sent to the Technical Center first for us software testers to hack away at. This was fascinating because not only did it use my years of experience in writing software, it also required me to have a detailed knowledge of just how controllers worked and what they did to control flights.I have also taught as a member of the adjunct faculty at Richard Stockton College. Courses I have taught have included Operations Research, Calculus, Statistics, and Microsoft OFFICE.Now I am retired and looking for things to do to use my years of painfully acquired computer and mathematical skills and other knowledge. Helping students learn what I learned is my answer.

I'm currently attending University of Central Florida for a B.S. in General Chemistry and a Minor in Computer Science. Having taken many challenging courses in the past I understand the importance of guidance outside of the class in order to achieve success.Personally, I thoroughly enjoy learning math and science subjects and have been tutoring since high school. My inspiration for tutoring was my Chemistry teacher back in high school who provided an extremely fun and interactive learning environment. I hope to incorporate these elements into my own classroom to help my students to better understand the material.Currently, I'm tutoring Chemistry and Math related subjects. In these subjects I believe that practicing problems are the most efficient way to learn the material and my classroom will heavily reflect this philosophy.As a full-time student and a part-time Computer Support Technician my free time is often limited. However, when I'm free I like to unwind by learning new recipes and playing the game of Go.

I am a college physics major with dreams of someday becoming an astrophysicist. During the latter part of my high school career, I discovered a passion for learning about and communicating disciplines of science and mathematics - more specifically, physics and mathematics. I have since then decided to major in Physics B.S. at the University of Houston's College of Natural Science and Mathematics.I have been tutoring for about 4 years now and I have seen great success with my students. I first began tutoring while in high school by helping some of my friends in Advanced Placement math and science courses such as AP Calculus and AP Physics. Since then, I have tutored students ranging from elementary school students to college seniors. The courses I have tutored in have extended from elementary math and science, to high school algebra, college algebra, geometry, trigonometry, calculus, algebra-based physics, calculus-based physics, and chemistry. I prefer one-on-one, location-based tutoring, but online tutoring is also a pleasant option. I tend to re-teach my students the relevant concepts with respect to the course or homework problem the student is currently engaged in. In this way, I can differentiate the concepts the student has already grasped from the concepts the student still struggles with.I am also an avid astronomer and astrophotographer. Two years ago I helped found the Astronomy Society at the University of Houston (ASUH), an organization founded to provide an environment where the University of Houston community and its neighbors can learn about the sun, moon, stars, planets, comets, galaxies, gas, dust and other non-Earthly bodies and phenomena. After my undergraduate career, I aspire to study graduate-level physics. Outside of mathematics and science, some of my loves include irony, humor, heartfelt friendship, basketball, rationality, eloquent books, eloquent people, stargazing, and the freedom to be an individual. I feel astronomy brings us a clear awareness of our place in the universe and challenges us to deal more carefully with each other and with the place we call home.

Graduated from ASU 10yrs ago. Currently a full time science teacher. Love to see students love to learn science, and become more confident in applying what they've learned.

I first began tutoring and mentoring high school and college students when I was an undergraduate studying Electrical Engineering at the University of Texas. After working with many students I have found that most fall into one of two categories: there are those that are struggling with their studies and need help to reach satisfactory performance and there are those that are driven and ambitious and want to become top performers and bring their abilities to the next level. I truly believe that with some guidance, effort, desire, and discipline academic success is within reach for all students regardless of skill level. My teaching objective is to create a customized, holistic learning experience for each student that seeks to resolve immediate knowledge deficiencies as well as grow their intellectual capacity. I want my students to learn and benefit not only from my academic knowledge of math and science but also grow and gain from my experiences as a graduate from a top university and as a professional with NASA and a Fortune 500 company. As a dedicated life-long learner I spend a significant amount of my free time reading books and materials on a wide array of topics including science, philosophy, business, economics, and history. I love spending time with my family, traveling, and exercising. I'm passionate about solving problems and I truly enjoy helping people win.
