Amy

ACT English Tutor • +15 Subjects

For the past six years, I've worked as a private nanny and tutor for several families in the Cincinnati area. I have experience with kids ranging in age from 5 through 17. As expected when working with such a broad range of age groups, I've also covered a variety of subject matter, from elementary reading to AP biology.Fortunately, helping kids achieve their best in school afforded me the opportunity to pursue my own education. I graduated cum laude from University of Cincinnati in 2015 with my Bachelor of Science in Nutrition and Dietetics. Because of my background in the sciences, my favorite subjects to tutor are the life sciences, especially biology; however, I also have experience working with students in English and reading, both as general subjects and in preparation for the ACT.If there's one life lesson that my college career taught me, it's the importance of critical thinking not only for success in the classroom, but success in life beyond the classroom as well. I try to encourage the use of critical thinking and analytical skills in all of my tutoring sessions to challenge students to utilize the knowledge they already have to come up with answers they may be unsure about originally. This ensures that students fully comprehend the subject matter, so that they aren't just memorizing and regurgitating for a test. This style of teaching also allows me to really engage even the shyest of students, and most importantly, have fun!When I'm not teaching kids the importance of thinking outside the box, I really enjoy being active and working out. In high school, I played basketball and volleyball competitively, which carried over into a lifelong love of fitness and health. Somewhat contradictorily, I also love cooking (and eating), and will be participating in a recreational Culinary Certificate course at Cincinnati State in the fall. Not to be a total cliche, but my third favorite hobby is traveling. In college, I spent nine weeks backpacking through Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laos. My next trip on the books is to Austin, Texas, to experience the Austin City Limits Music and Cultural Festival. If I'm not cooking at home, eating a strange food on a foreign continent, or trying to work off the calories from both those endeavors, you can usually find me hanging out at the dog park with my border collie.

Hannah

Elementary School Math Tutor • +15 Subjects

I am a graduate of the University of Kentucky with a degree in Natural Science and minors in Chemistry and Jewish Studies. I have been tutoring since high school and I enjoy working with all students, no matter their background or level of mastery in the subject. I tutor a variety of subjects, especially in math and science, but my favorite is writing. It is my belief that every student has something important to say, even if they don't know how to say it. My goal as a writing tutor is to make sure your voice is heard clearly and effectively, and that you are proud of the work you have done. Outside of work, I enjoy reading, writing, film, and playing with my bunnies.

Bill

AP U.S. Government & Politics Tutor • +20 Subjects

I am a teacher, certified in The Social Sciences and in Gifted Education, having received my training from Northern Kentucky University. I hold a BA in Social Studies, an MA in Gifted Education, and an additional 30 graduate hours in Special Education. Beyond that, however, I have been a 'teacher' my whole life. Every position I have ever held, from a 15 year-old stock boy, to a professional air traffic controller, to a corporate executive, I have wound up teaching/instructing/training. It is not just what I do, it is who and what I have always been.The most effective way to teach anything, in my opinion, is one-on-one face to face. A student's needs can be more easily determined and then satisfied, and response to learning stimuli is immediate and clear. Tutoring allows me to take a lifetime of interests and knowledge and use them, in a manner suitable for each student, to create learning.While able to tutor in many of the social sciences, I enjoy teaching in the history areas, especially American and Modern European. My major enjoyment, however, comes from the teaching of writing, in all areas, from essays to fiction in all forms. Because of the lack of expressive abilities I encountered when I began teaching, I have stressed it in all of my teaching situations. I have tutored in after-school programs, privately while in college, and to troubled students in local children's homes. I work in a personable, oral, style that connects ideas and thoughts to the standard details of a subject. Along with writing, I enjoy the outdoors. I camp, fish, and play golf as I can find time.

Pamala

Elementary School Tutor • +11 Subjects

The best years of my formal education was my first and second year of school. There I learned to decode words and spell. This was the foundation of my love for the English language. It is so important to have a foundation to build upon. This is the reason I tutor, to give students a foundation to build upon for a lifetime of learning. Learning should both be engaging and fun. As a writer and Poet I love the play of words that Poetry provides me. Equally important is the sound of reading. It is music to the ears of the listener.I attended the University of Louisville. During my time in graduate school, I once remarked that if I could earn a living learning, this would be the life for me. Most fortunately, I found teaching which has afforded me the opportunity to always be in arena of learning. Anything that I want to know is within my grasp. My formative years of schools have provided me the motivation to love learning and school. I want to impart this love to the students I tutor.

Elizabeth

Biology Tutor • +22 Subjects

I manage programs across a spectrum of needs including scientific promotion, research program design and implementation, strategic planning, and financial tracking.I have a variety of scientific interests, which is why I decided to pursue a PhD in epidemiology. I have studied a number of disorders including smooth muscle cell proliferation in heart disease, DNA repair in ataxia telangiectasia, second messenger signalling in pancreatic cancer, and protein folding in hereditary pancreatitis. I am interested in the application of large data set information to appropriately inform clinical decisions and health/environmental policies. Biostatistical ethics and reproducible data are, therefore, important areas of research to me. I am also interested in cost-efficient ways to improve health outcomes, such as diet and stress.I love teaching and explaining ideas--seeing the change on a person's face when they finally 'get' a concept. I especially enjoying teaching scientific writing (including grant writing), basic biostatistics, and biomedical and statistical ethics.My passion for writing includes communicating scientific concepts to the general public, and listening to people in order to understand what they want to know. I have learned, through my work with Dr. Erin Haynes, to also listen to communities, and to value the expertise that they bring to me.Specialties: Some people are creative, some people can spin, and some people know science, but few can combine all three. I make grants better. I bring seventeen years of benchwork, including molecular biology and small animal surgery, as part of my experiential package. Expert in experimental design, career development programs, and some expertise in the design and analysis of human research studies.
