Hey there! My name is Kyle, and I've been working behind a camera for over a decade. From photography to filmmaking to commercial video production, I've done it all. My work has played in film festivals across the country, and won awards in a number of industries. My commercial clients include Walmart, Tyson Foods and multiple universities.

Shenel
High School and College Chemistry Tutor
Hi, I'm Shenel. I have a Bachelor's degree in Biology from The University of Albany and I have been a college chemistry tutor since 2013. I became a tutor because I struggled to grasp Chemistry at first but excelled after much hard work. I sincerely enjoy helping students find success and overcome academic challenges. I have experience tutoring several subjects, but chemistry is my specialty. Every student has a different learning style; no two students are exactly alike! One of my favori... Read more

Everyone Can Learn!

- Feura Bush , New York ( 12067 )
- 15 miles
Hello, I have been in education for many years, and have raised four grown children. Over the years as a tutor, teacher, adjunct instructor, and an academic advisor, I can honestly say with conviction that every student has the ability to learn. As Howard Gardiner suggests, we all have multiple intelligences. I believe it is the responsibility of the tutor and teacher to determine each student's specific learning style, and teach to this intelligence. With my background in psychology... Read more

Effective writing for business

I can teach you how to write smoothly, clearly, concisely, and in an even tone. Good writing starts with organizing your thoughts and ends with work that is attractively laid out on the page. Between these two points lie using standard grammar and punctuation, choosing the right words, omitting what is unnecessary, and editing your work. Not only can I teach you what to do, but also how you can put the lessons into practice according to your own pace and temperament. Law is a literary... Read more

I worked in Japan as an English teacher for 7 years. I came back to complete the requirements for medical school and, after earning an A in each class, became a tutor of Biology, Chemistry, Calculus I & II, and Organic Chemistry for my fellow undergrads while earning my own degree in Biotechnology. I have been working in pharmaceutical and chemical production since, but have always continued to coach (motorcycling, fitness) and teach (even if it's just my 2 boys). In both, I enjoy the f...

I just graduated Magna Cum Laude from Loyola University Chicago--I was also granted Phi Beta Kappa status for my exemplary achievement in all of my classes. Given that I studied Philosophy and Psychology at a liberal arts college, I have had the chance to excel in many distinct areas of study, from history to Spanish to theology. Spanish was also my first language, and with extensive travel throughout Latin America, I have a good grasp not only on the subtle differences between dialects, bu... Read more

After receiving my Ph.D. in May of 2014, I... Read more
