Part-time tutor
I have been teaching in Virginia for 26 years. I have experience in Elementary, special education, ELL and high school. I enjoy working with small groups and individually with students. I would love to work with your child to help him/her succeed in school. Teaching is my passion. My approach to teaching/tutoring is to first form a relationship of trust with the student. Then, I focus on the student's strengths and see what strategies work best for him or her. I believe in a lot of hand... Read more

Love to learn? Me too!
As someone who spent a lot of time as a student after high school I know what it takes to succeed in academic life after high school. I graduated magna cum laude from undergrad and have a master's degree and a law degree. I have been practicing law for 11 years and I am looking to help others get where they want to go academically in the way that others helped me in the same way. I have taught at the University of Virginia School of law from 2005-2015, I have tutored undergraduate students... Read more

I am retired from a consulting practice in engineering after 55 years. I took my degrees in chemical engineering because chemical engineers do everything other engineers do plus chemistry. This enabled me to step into unfamiliar situations and succeed by applying the fundamentals of chemistry, physics and mathematics. In tutoring, I take the same approach. I look for the area or areas where the student is struggling. This may be in the fundamentals of the subject, in some particular procedur... Read more
Christina
Humanities Teacher: 4th Grade through Adult
My teacher handed me the Iliad when I was fourteen, and I hated it. Eight years and two full tours of the Great Books later, I had learned to like the Western Canon but not how to understand or study it. I still felt like a person at a feast with a stuffy nose. Then I got hired to write Literature class plans and suddenly there was no more "try." What happened next was stranger than fiction, but that's a story I'll save for later. For now, can you relate to my experience? Maybe they kee... Read more

I am a high school teacher with 30 years of experience teaching students. This year I am focusing on AP Economics - both micro and macro, along with academic economics and our virtual economics course. I find this class to be a challenge to many students due to the abstract concepts and "new terminology" to many of the students. Due to this difficulty, it has been my goal to help each and every student find success through practice tests, multiple review sessions and creating various means... Read more

Kyle
Always helpful!
I am a very friendly and patient person. If you do not succeed the first time, don't worry. We will figure out an alternative way to make whatever problem is a piece of cake. My teaching style is adaptive. I try to get to know a student so I can create a lesson plan that works for him or her. Some are visual learners, so I have to draw pictures or diagrams to demonstrate how something functions. The method I use will really depend on the type of learner you are. I am currently going to...
