ACCUPLACER ESL - Sentence Meaning Tutor • +17 Subjects

I obtained my Bachelor of Arts in Arabic and Middle Eastern cultures in May of 2017. Afterward, I completed a dual Masters of Arts in Arabic linguistics and criminal justice studies (criminology emphasis) with the goal to work as a language analyst for the United States government; however, since my graduation, I have been teaching Arabic at the college level, and I am loving it!I very much enjoy studying how and why people's minds may work in regards to social deviance, which is why I chose to study criminal justice, emphasizing on criminology. My studies concentrated on advanced criminological theories, geographical crime profiling, and behaviors of violent crimes. If you are a fan of shows such as CSI and/or Criminal Minds then you know exactly why I find this field so fascinating!I am here to help learners who are interested in the Arabic language and cultures as well as those who study or want to better understand the criminal justice systems. I am also available to help with essay writing (high school and college-level). My technique is to cater to each student's learning style and specific needs in order to successfully assist with understanding and retaining the information of the targeted subject.

Julie Lynn

ACT English Tutor • +49 Subjects

Every student has the ability to learn, to overcome challenges, and to get excited over new discoveries. I believe as a tutor and a teacher that it is my job to guide a student to use their abilities, to conquer challenges, and to discover more than they did on their own. Every learner is different, and that's a good thing.

Mary

ACT English Tutor • +45 Subjects

I have two masters degrees, one in Music from Houghton College and the other in Library Science from the University of Missouri - Columbia. The English language, both in reading and writing have been a main interest in my life. Throughout the time I was studying Music and Library Science, I tutored both peers and high school students in English reading, writing, diction, and test preparation. I tutored my peers in test preparation and writing skills from 2004 to 2010. From 2010 to the present, I taught diction, writing, and reading to both international students and native speakers. My favorite subject to teach is writing because it is a skill that incorporates all other English skills. I believe that everyone is capable of learning, and will gain confidence as they accomplish small learning goals. If the goals are too broad, the learning experience will be too overwhelming and the student may lose confidence in his or her abilities. I enjoy research, learning new things, and helping others reach their learning goals. Outside of academics, I enjoy gardening, music, and the company of my four dogs. I also enjoy needlework and cosplay. I consider tutoring a privilege and look forward to helping anyone I am able.

6th Grade AP Language Composition Tutor • +19 Subjects

As a student, I am highly interested in the sciences which has led me to be in this position as a pharmacy student. I love to learn about biochemical processes of our body and how medications can alter that. Once that knowledge has been obtained, it is amazing to learn about how it can be applied therapeutically. My background consists of a public health degree while which helps me understand the broad perspective of health and then learning about pharmacy helps me zoom in and be able to clinically help patients. Professionally, I aspire to be in a workplace where I could continue being innovative and where I can utilize my compassion for individuals. I want a degree of freedom along with my job where I could learn new things and at the same time follow protocol.

Shelley

AP Chemistry Tutor • +7 Subjects

I first started tutoring when I was an undergraduate student in college. I tutored both General Chemistry and Organic Chemistry. I finished my Undergraduate degree in Psychology with a Minor in Biology. I started teaching Chemistry while I was working on my first Master's Degree; I taught General Chemistry Labs. I enjoyed teaching so much that after I finished my degree I started teaching Honors Chemistry at the High School level.As a teacher, I love to use hands-on methods to teach concepts to my students. I believe in fostering a supportive and caring environment for learning. Part of the learning process involves struggling with the material before mastery. I work very hard to support my students during this challenging time. I also believe in helping students learn to take responsibility for their own learning process. This involves helping my students to learn the best ways in which to study challenging material for them as an individual so that they can be successful not just at their current educational level but also have study skills to take with them throughout their lives.

Adult Literacy Tutor • +17 Subjects

I am an educator who is entering my 7th year of Secondary English Education. I am a graduate of the University of Iowa (BA Secondary English Education; Minors Human Relations, Psychology, Reading, and Athletic Coaching) and Drake University (M.S.E Culturally Responsive Leadership and Instruction with an endorsement in Gifted and Talented Education). Based on my personal experiences in education as well as my studies, my approach to teaching is one in which building positive relationships with students is my first priority. In doing so, I can better understand who they are, what they're interested in, and the ways in which I can best meet their academic needs. Additionally, I have worked with students with a range of needs, including students who are English Language Learners, Students who have goals in Special Education, and students who are identified as Gifted and Talented. This equips me with the capacity to differentiate as needed.I am passionate about reading, writing, and the exploration of literature. Being able to read critically and articulate ideas meaningful are skills that empower young people to thrive as 21st-century learners. I believe that my love of these topics, coupled with my ability to connect with young people, allows me to help them meet their goals. I strongly believe in finding relevant materials that also challenge students to achieve highly. In this way, students are actively connected and engaged in their learning.Outside of education, I have many interests including playing recreational sports like volleyball and softball, creating/playing/listening to music, cycling/exercise, and gaming. I believe my many interests help me connect with student, allowing them to feel valued, validated, and able to achieve a great deal academically.

Anatomy Tutor • +16 Subjects

In May of 2015, I graduated from the University of Saint Thomas in Saint Paul, Minnesota. There, I earned my degree in Biochemistry while working as a coffee shop barista, environmental chemistry laboratory assistant, and emergency department medical scribe. Further, as an undergraduate, I developed a love for teaching as I worked as a Teacher's Assistant in various biology and chemistry laboratory courses and later had the opportunity to serve as a private tutor in Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry. I enjoyed the opportunity to work with students in the subject areas I love.With academic understanding comes excitement, further curiosity, and a sense of achievement. Leading my students toward this understanding is my goal, and something I take great pride in. In August of 2015, I began my medical school education at Creighton University. I am excited to continue working as a tutor while earning a degree that will allow me to be a life-long teacher.
