Nora
Experienced Japanese Language Tutor for all Levels
My name is Nora, I graduated from Earlham College with a double major in music and comparative languages and linguistics, focusing on Japanese. I've studied the language through a variety of methods from self-study to immersion to university courses and I am able to meet you where you are with the language you're learning and help take you where you want to go. As a fluent non-native speaker of Japanese (JLPT N1), I know the challenges and pitfalls learners are likely to encounter, and can he... Read more
Faye
Experienced Chemistry and Biology tutor
I first became interested in the life sciences during my high school biology class. As a biology major in college, I was required to take chemistry. Much to my surprise and due to a great teacher, I learned that I liked chemistry! Because of my positive experience with this teacher, I decided to major in chemistry too. Fast forward to the end of college and I decided to combine my love of these two subjects and pursue a PhD in Biochemistry. Since completing my PhD, I've conducted basic... Read more
Robert
Statistics (primary) and math (secondary) tutor
I obtained a PhD in Statistics from Ohio State University in 1991. I've spent 14 years in the pharmaceutical industry, five years in academia and several years at various Contract Research Organizations (CROs) and consulting.

While in the pharmaceutical industry, I designed and taught a “Statistics in 30 minutes course†for colleagues with no prior knowledge of statistics. My presentation actually elicited applause on several occa... Read more

Let me help you improve your writing and history skills!
I entered Yale University as a Biology major, but Jonathan Spence's Intro to Modern Chinese History course unveiled how alive and intriguing history could be. I loved my senior thesis research at historical libraries and traveled to San Francisco/Oakland Chinatowns through a Mellon Forum undergraduate research grant. At Harvard's School of Education, I brought this excitement to high school students, hoping their experience would be different from mine. After graduating I taught at Boston Lat... Read more

Clark
Clark R. - Tutor in Ann Arbor, MI (48104)
My approach to tutoring is to first determine where weaknesses in understanding exist, then to find ways to strengthen the student in those areas. Learning styles vary among students, so whenever possible, I try to match my tutoring methods to each student's strongest learning style. For example, one student may learn best by rote memorization and repetition drills. Another may thrive with analogies and mnemonics. A third student may need derivations from first principles or real life applica... Read more

Caitlin
Elementary Teacher with Strong Background in Reading and Literacy
I am currently in my 4th year of teaching. I have taught both 1st and 2nd grades in a self-contained setting. Before beginning my teaching career, I served as a member of Americorps as a reading and literacy tutor in Washington DC and the surrounding metro areas. I helped students in grades K-3 close the achievement gap in reading, and read on grade level. One of the parts of teaching that I enjoy most is sharing my passion of reading and learning with my students, and helping them to love... Read more
