John
Patient, Effective, and Focused Tutor
My approach toward tutoring stems from the idea that all students learn in different ways and at different rates. A method that works well for one student may not work well for another, and it is the job of the tutor, my job, to recognize a learning style and adapt my style to fit it. All too often, and in my own experience, educators try to force round pegs into square holes by forcing students with individual needs into mass market learning. Before I too forcefully apply a teaching style, I... Read more
Andrew
Cheerleader, editor, muse, coach
I have a Master's in Education from Teachers College Columbia University. I'm a technical writer and project manager in the financial sector. For five years, I was a high school English and humanities teacher in the NYC public schools, which gives me a sharp edge when it comes to literature, history and writing-related tasks. I specialize in writing support: assistance with outlining and researching, proofreading, copyediting, and raw encouragement. As skilled as you need your tutor to be,... Read more
Charlene
Former Biology Teacher at a Prestigious Independent School

I have over 10 years of teaching and tutoring experience combined working with students from all walks of life - from tiny two-year olds to undergraduate chemistry and biology students. I've even had the opportunity to wor... Read more

My tutoring strengths lie primarily in Psychology, Statistics, and standardized testing. I studied psychology and statistics ... Read more
Tom
Writing and communication specialist
I am a big believer in students setting goals based on the their objectives, setting actionable steps to achieve their goals with them, and working together to execute our plan. Once we get into the work, my values compared to other tutors will skew towards a focus on clarity, impact, economic word usage, and sound narrative storytelling. Most of my interactive experience helping people write better comes from working with authors as an editor. In that world, the priority is on finding t... Read more
John
Oxford University Biologist for tutoring Biology
I'm a British-American nerd who grew up in the UK. I love all things science, especially Biology, which I majored in. I also like to break down complex science into more digestible content for those who do not have a background in science. That's what lead me to become a tutor. Science can seem daunting to some, but it's really not once you break it down! I think the world would be a better place if more people understood how things work, and I love having the chance to be the one to tea... Read more
