Laurence
Dedicated to Your Success!
"It takes a village to raise a child." Growing up in the DPS system had its ups and downs when it came to acquiring a tutor. I learned to ignore the stigma of receiving the help I needed to graduate in the top 10% of my class in the state of Michigan. I was successfully mentored and tutored in AP Calculus and AP English in High School. Today, years later, once again, I needed a tutor. For Financial Accounting. I got a B+. My overall GPA, with the help of tutoring, is 3.9. Tutors have helpe... Read more
Gretchen
AP Biology, Biology, SAT 2, AP Environmental Science, Ecology
I have over fourteen years of experience teaching topics in biology in a wide range of academic levels, including Advanced Placement, biology for English Language Learners, and remedial. I specialize in fun ways to learn the material including the use of analogies and connections to real life. We can create memory tools together so that the material will be personal to you. **Because I have gotten many new in-person students lately, I can no longer tutor students in their homes. I meet st... Read more
Mae
English Linguistics Tutor
I have been a writing instructor for a freshman level writing composition class. The writing process is very important for the finished project and I do not believe in trying to write a full paper all in once sitting. I believe in the benefit of receiving feedback not only from the writing instructor, but from peers as well. Each person has valuable input and simply seeing someone else's work can be enough to get the creative juices flowing. I love teaching and taking time to work one-on-one ... Read more
Erin
Tutor for Writing and General Subjects
I have volunteer experience tutoring in Ann Arbor and abroad in a global program. In Ann Arbor I volunteered with students aged 6-18, using the Socratic method to help students with their homework, writing, and literacy skills. I was able to practice different methods to help students better help themselves, and I found it most successful when students were able to familiarize themselves with their own personal interests and learning styles in order to connect with the material. I learned ... Read more
Nick
Medical Student Specialized in the Health Sciences
In 2019, I graduated with a Bachelors in Biology and a minor in Chemistry. Throughout my undergrad, I always felt like it took me a longer time to grasp information than others. While I tried studying with online notes or even the traditional textbook, it was difficult for me to follow along. I felt like I spent too much time trying to perfect my time understanding concepts, that I didn't leave enough time to go through practice problems. The last thing I want are students to go through ... Read more

As a tutor, I bring a wealth of experience working in education--beginning with my work tutoring a struggling first-grader in the "Trailblazers" program at Pioneer High School. Since then I have worked with dozens of students in all sorts of different capacities, including teaching English in the Bolivian jungle, helping struggling students in Washington, DC, and coaching neighbors' kids on SAT prep here in Ann Arbor. I love doing work that makes a real difference in people's lives and helps ... Read more
