Adam
Math nerd with a passion to teach others!
I love to help others and I found that tutoring is one of the best ways for me to achieve that. In high school, I always volunteered to help struggling peers after class. Then, I was hired by the Higher Education Opportunity Program at my college, where I was employed to help six students for an entire semester. I began tutoring independently upon graduation and haven't stopped since! I have helped: children as young as 6 years old, elderly students taking online classes, individuals with lea... Read more

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 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...

Joseph
Full-time lecturer at the U of Albany in the writing program
I've been teaching composition and literature for ten years now--it never gets tiring. The truth is that I've always enjoyed the concept of transferring knowledge. It's exciting to see a student begin to understand a difficult concept. As a full-time lecturer in the Writing & Critical Inquiry program at the University at Albany, I am specially trained to help students learn to write more clearly and precisely. Every student, however, does not achieve the same goals in the same time. It is imp... Read more
