Winona
Enjoy Reading or Drawing with Winona
I've always been crazy for reading, from the cereal box in the morning to a great book of adventure.

This interest grew to drawing my animals and family, especially home-mad... Read more

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

Jennifer
Experienced Tutor in Science and Math
I graduated from The College of Saint Rose summa cum laude with a Bachelor of Science in biochemistry and a minor in mathematics. While at the college, I tutored for 3 years in the Academic Success Center in science and math. This tutoring was an open lab setting and there were many times that I would have over 10 students to tutor at one time. I much prefer to tutor in small groups or one on one because I can give all of my attention to one student and really help them succeed. Subjects that... Read more
