I have quite a bit of experience with tutoring children and adults. I have tutored a young boy, age 14, in Pre-Algebra, Geometry, and Algebra 1. He also had ADHD. I have three younger brothers, and have tutored them all through math and reading classes. My step-brother, age 11, is autistic and I have helped tutor him in math and reading. More recently, I tutored a young man, 18, in Algebra 2. My tutoring style is very open, I like to get a sense of what you know, and how confident you a... Read more

Jamie
Politics and History
- $30 / h
- Durham , North Carolina ( 27707 )
- 20 miles
I want students to learn these subjects not just to pass a test or class, but to truly enjoy them. Politics, social studies, and history are often seen as dry and boring only because the teacher did not make them come alive. I have the ability to make these subjects lively and interesting for a person who is willing to learn. Hopefully the students that I help will come to understand that what I am helping them with are fascinating topics of study. In the past I have helped numerous other... Read more

Friendly and patient tutor for students of all ages

- Carrboro , North Carolina ( 27510 )
- 20 miles
In the last few years, I have worked with many students with ADD and ADHD. Every student is different, and one thing that I have learned in my teaching is that a strategy that doesn't work for one child or adult might be a good solution for another. I try to be creative, compassionate, and fun in my approaches to helping students focus. Some soluti Read more
Mary
Energetic tutor looking to help!
- $50 / h
- 10 ratings
- Carrboro , North Carolina ( 27510 )
- 20 miles
I do not have one particular teaching style, because students will always reveal how they learn best in the earliest sessions. I always get to know students, work within their interests (e.g., a particular sport, hobby, or even T.V. show) and teach the material from within the context of something they've already mastered. I graduated high school with a GPA of 3.97, and college (University of Michigan) with a 3.7. I am currently taking Master's Degree classes, and maintain a 4.0 GPA. I ... Read more
