Patti
Enthusiastic and Experienced tutor
I have 15+ years of elementary teaching experience. I've taught regular education (3rd/4th), special education (3-6th) and preschool (6 years). I realize that school can be very tough for some kids and it is satisfying to have a child master a difficult concept. Methods depend on the age and topic. I tend to aim to teach a specific skill, through introduction, practice, review and then a game (or song if kids are little). I've tutored both individually and in small groups. I enjoy tutoring s...

Let Me Help You Succeed
Empathy with you, my student, is paramount. I make it clear from the beginning that I care for you, that I want you to master whatever we are studying together, that I will work hard to find and use your best paths to knowledge. A bit of subject-matter-related humour often helps. I have high expectations when I work as a tutor but I will never make my students suffer. I am an intellectually curious person; I play to whatever degree of intellectual curiosity I find in students. I aim to m... Read more

I will endeavor to make any subject I teach fun and exciting to learn!... Read more

Come down with a bad case of Math?
Most people don't like math. This makes doing it almost impossible. There are usually a few reasons for this: bad experience at school, never seeing the purpose, people withholding the whole picture for later development and never coming back to it because of tests and such. I start by finding the main culprit to this distress, and start solving problems for the student. Not math problems, but base problems in their understanding. After some skill building and drilling on the right areas we ... Read more
Stephanie
PhD chemist and math wiz
I love explaining through conceptual understanding and problem solving strategies rather than only teaching methods that apply to one kind of problem. That way my students do better in all their courses and not only the one that I tutor. Ideally my students learn good study skills and don't need me anymore after a few months. I have 10 years experience teaching college chemistry and doing research and organic synthesis. I am an adjunct professor in chemistry and work at a college tutoring c... Read more
