Hilarie
Experienced and passionate teacher--and yes, a grammar geek
My passion is to help people do their best. I come from a family of readers, teachers, and grammarians and have over 20 years of experience as a tutor. I began my career as a public high school English teacher in Gaithersburg, then trained professionals while performing work for the federal government. Tutoring one-on-one gives me the ability to get to know and build a relationship with my clients, so I can empower them and provide them with the perspectives and tools for success. ... Read more
Marshall
Science and French Tutor
Hello! I signed up to work with Wyzant to help students who are not receiving the direction they need in the formal classroom. During my high school years a handful of my teachers really struggled to teach the material in a way that students could understand and grasp. This translated into my peers having poor grades, low self-esteem, and an overall dislike for the subject. While we studied together for exams, I found enjoyment in teaching and helping them review the material. Because of t... Read more

Seasoned biologist with extensive education, experience, and patience
I fell in love with science as an undergraduate student at Cornell University. My passion for learning keeps me close to universities and colleges where I worked for several years in a variety of research areas (including Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease, cancer, and cystic fibrosis). I've reached a point in my scientific career where I believe it is time to share my knowledge and experience and I love nothing more than talking about biology with young, curious minds. I've come to und... Read more

As a Montessori Middle School teacher for 3 years, and an online instructor since 2014, I share my love for the environment and all things science and math with my students every day.

I help students learn through a multi-layered exposure to new experiences and information: a synthesis o... Read more
