Richard
PhD Candidate Tutor
I am a PhD-level tutor from Knoxville, TN, specializing in helping students prepare for standardized tests. I have several years of experience teaching courses at the college level in both social psychology and research methods, as well as experience tutoring in math, science and English. Most of the problems that my students have, result from a failure to install in them the thinking strategies and working habits leading to success. Once the students learn those strategies and apply them... Read more

Math Tutoring for Middle and High School
I have taught math in middle and high school for 15 years: I am a certified in Math grades 6-12. I began tutoring when a parent of one of my students recommended me to a friend. I ended up helping that student for two years. My tutoring business then grew by word of mouth in the community over the last 10 years. I have helped many former students and their friends achieve greater success in their math courses and develop stronger confidence in their abilities to problem solve more independent... Read more

A Young, Ernest Tutor with a Passion for Helping Students Learn

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
Judy
Dr.J: I teach writing and literature.
I am a retired English teacher and teacher education professor. I enjoy teaching and love to work one-on-one with students. I'm not ready to be entirely out of the field of education, so I like to tutor. I particularly enjoy showing students that writing is not some mysterious skill that only some people can do. I believe that everyone can learn to say what they want to say on paper if they are taught to organize their thoughts. I also enjoy showing students that literature and reading ... Read more

Amanda
Experienced STEM Tutor
As a tutor, I strive to improve more than a single grade or subject area by working with my students to develop better habits and study methods. Individuals learn differently and at their own pace so I focus on both strengths and weaknesses to improve problem-solving and organization skills. I believe that with the right kind of support and encouragement anyone can be a 'math' or 'science' person. My undergraduate degree is in Chemistry with a minor in Mathematics from the University of ... Read more
