Elizabeth
Dedicated educator looking to advocate for students.
I am currently a grad student at the University of TN in Knoxville. I have a background in tutoring and special education. I will graduate in May of 2018 with a masters degree. I think that education is the most powerful tool a person can acquire. I believe that every student deserves a chance to learn. I have experience in tutoring elementary age students in English and Math, but I am open to any subject. I also have had 2 years experience of being in the classroom for at least 10 - 15 hours...

Pamela - English Teacher/Tutor, Knoxville, TN
I am from the Knoxville area, but I moved away for twenty years when I married my husband, who was an officer in the Marine Corps. I have had the opportunity to live overseas as well as in many states across the country over the past twenty years. During that time, I taught high school English and worked as a columnist for local newspapers. My husband and I moved back to Knoxville with our two sons two years ago. I currently write an occasional column for the local newspaper in Knoxville,... Read more

I see tutoring as a means of instilling passion in students
I grew up in a large family; I used to tutor my younger siblings, nephews and neighbor while I was an elementary, high school, and undergraduate student. In graduate school, I taught general biology for science and non-science major students as a graduate assistant. Currently I work as an adjunct microbiology professor at my local community college and I am also a STEM science tutor at Knox county high schools. Teaching is my passion. Math was my favorite subject in school; I took seve... Read more
Logan
Math and Science
The "Aha!" moment is one of the best parts of the learning process. I love helping a student move from utter bewilderment to mild confusion to complete understanding in their subject. There are few more fulfilling ways to spend time. I have over a year of experience tutoring university athletes in various math subjects, chemistry, physics, Spanish, economics, and accounting. During that period of time, I also facilitated math lab hours, teaching math to multiple students at the same time. ... Read more

What kind of tree does a math tutor climb?… Geometry
I have been tutoring in some capacity for over four years. I absolutely love math, but I also enjoy most subjects. I am studying to become an ESL (English as a Second Language) teacher and will graduate in May. I love tutoring because I love to work one-on-one with students and struggle with them to figure out a problem or concept. I am dedicated to my students and will work hard to help you in any way I can. I also love to have fun and make jokes (puns are my favorite). Four years of exp... Read more

Tutor with an MEd
I recently received my M.Ed. and now I need to pay off those student loans. A little about me: I'm an avid reader, I love to write (mostly academic writing) and I enjoy teaching. I currently work in the field f education so this would be a great way to make extra money while also doing what I love. I am an overachiever in most areas of life. I've never been below the top 10% of my classes but I'm also a very social person. My tutoring technique usually includes making the subject matter ... Read more

ACT, Math, and Science Tutor
I am a recent graduate of the University of Minnesota who loves teaching. During my education I worked as a Teaching Assistant for a math class, so I have experience explaining concepts to students. I love helping students identify why they are struggling with a particular area, and then finding new ways to explain the material. I know standardized tests like the ACT can be daunting, but I want to help give students the confidence they need to be prepared and score well. Like the ACT, scie... Read more
