I am a current Master's degree student at Illinois State University, where I study Communication. I currently work both as a private tutor for high school/AP English, ACT prep, SAT prep, and as a graduate teaching assistant at my university. I have several years of tutoring and teaching experience working with clients from a variety of backgrounds and with a variety of goals and challenges, and I have used that experience to develop the strongest pedagogy possible, in order to accommodate the needs of all my clients. I look forward to meeting and working with your student!

I am well on my way to becoming a cheesehead by now.

I am a passionate tutor of several subjects, with an emphasis on high school math. I attended Johns Hopkins University and spent a semester abroad in Seville, Spain. Since graduating in 2014 with a Bachelor of Science in Applied Mathematics, I have worked in software development, education, and the performing arts -- I like a bit of variety to keep life interesting! I am currently pursuing a Master's degree in Educational Policy at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. My personal interests include dance, cooking, and podcasts. Hobbies: travel, reading, cooking, music, writing, art, books

I am an incoming sophomore at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, originally from San Diego, CA. I'm currently pursuing a double major in international studies and political science, with a certificate in Mandarin. I have been both been a member, and later in charge, of tutoring programs at a local K-8 school tutoring math, writing, and reading. During this time, I also tutored fellow peers in various subjects, including history and government which I have always loved. Personally, I have had most enjoyed tutoring writing and math, but I am more than happy to help however I can. When approaching tutoring any subject it may be, I would describe my approach as enjoyable, throughout, and cooperative. I'm not here to stand on a pedestal or look down upon anyone in any way, but to simply lend all the knowledge I have and work together towards achieving all desired goals in an entertaining and effective way.

I am attending a lecture about The Great Gatsby, I will be eager if the speaker tells of the beauty she sees, rather than a quick and dirty type of analysis. I regularly talk to people who admit math wasn't their favorite subject in school. Some were self-conscious. Some had gaps they never filled. Some just didn't care. Whatever the case, I admit to them that math is my favorite art form with as much room for expression as sculpting or jazz. I claim that mathematicians are half artists, half observers of fine art. My conversants often tell me it is an epiphany for them to think of math as such, and that it helps heal their math wound. A marvelous way I have found to unveil beauty in the classroom is by using surprise. I like to present ideas from a simple perspective, discuss them briefly, then release a theorem. Thales' theorem (the diameter of a circle subtends a right angle to any point on the circumference) is a great example, especially with the aid of Java applets. After playing a bit with triangles by moving points around in a worksheet, it's surprising to be able to connect two structures as basic as a right triangle and a diameter. Next in importance to marveling at beauty, I want students to learn to think critically to solve problems. Understandably, some students have never had guidance past high school drills. All the more, problem solving should be emphasized and revisited throughout college curriculum. I have many years of experience in problem solving competitions and a collection of principles regarding problem solving that I like to follow. One is about inverse problems. Consider the following: if baseball cards are five cents apiece and shipping costs fifty cents, how many cards will one dollar buy? After making the arithmetic clear, students had better know how to calculate the forward problem, i.e. "How much will x number of cards cost?" I'm depending on them knowing the forward problem because we covered it last week, but it is important to bring it out in more than just a mention so the students have a comfortable base to start. It's like revisiting rational numbers before diving into irrationals. They are intrinsically tied, and it gives the class confidence to start with old material.

I'm a senior at the University of Wisconsin-Madison majoring in Biology and English. I also work as an undergraduate writing tutor through the university's writing center. I tutor a variety of subjects, but I'm most passionate about high school and college level English and STEM skills. I believe that anyone can improve their writing through clear, logical thinking and that STEM classes, though intimidating, can be tackled by breaking down topics into smaller portions and building up from there. Outside of school, I write short stories, sketch, and hike.

I am an experienced tutor and an aspiring historian. I hope to pursue graduate school in the next couple years, but I also love children. I've tutored children in both elementary school and high school, and love connecting curriculum to their experiences and current events. My hobbies are vegan cooking and baking and taking care of my cat, Jiji.

I am a junior at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, majoring in Materials Science & Engineering with a certificate in German. I graduated in 2017 from Sartell High School in Sartell, Minnesota. I've been working as a camp counselor teaching German for two years, which has given me a lot of experience teaching others. I have always been especially proficient in foreign languages and look forward to tutoring language students. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, petting dogs, and spending time with friends.

I'm a 24-year-old professional journalist, so I write for a living and I'm constantly having to learn about new new industries, new terms, new people. It's a wonderful job because it makes me a permanent student of the world, but I miss interacting with young students. I love teaching because I love learning, and I want to help other people find that same love of learning that I had growing up, because that guides me through life. I especially enjoy teaching writing and math. I'm sure this is heavily influenced by the fact that I learned those skills from two of the greatest teachers I ever had -- my mom for math, and a woman named Amy for writing.

I am a martial arts enthusiast, training Judo and Jiu Jitsu nearly every day of the week. In my down time, I like to play guitar and read popular scientific literature.
