Brian
Fluent German teacher
I moved to middle TN from Nebraska after completing my Master's to continue to pursue my passion for teaching German language and culture.

Philip
Part-time college professor available for tutoring
Hi, I'm Phil. I know how frustrating it can be when you don't understand something. I've felt it myself every day working as a research scientist at Vanderbilt University, tackling some really difficult problems. I have also seen it in my students as a college professor.

Carmen
Experienced, Multi-Disciple Vanderbilt Senior
I am a senior at Vanderbilt University and have studied hard my entire life. I love helping other people understand concepts, especially since teaching is the best method of reinforcing knowledge.
