Seth
Patient and Laid Back Writing, ESL, and Spanish/Portuguese Tutor
I'm Seth. For two years, I worked as writing tutor for the University of Iowa through the Department of Rhetoric's Honors Writing Fellow Program. The fellowship entailed taking a course in which I learned how to help students clearly and effectively express their ideas through the written word, including students whose first language isn't English. I tutored across a wide array of disciplines, from psychology to rhetoric to gender studies, in both English and Spanish. As someone who found ... Read more

Poli sci, history, econ and other social science subjects are my idea of fun, and my excitement is infectious. Want to improve your writing? Not only do... Read more

Experienced High School Math/Science Tutor
I'm an Iowa native and a graduate of Northwestern University. There I studied chemical engineering and was a member of the baseball team.

Spanish Tutor in Iowa City
Growing up, I learned Spanish and English simultaneously. I began my educational career in the U.S. at the age of 5 and my family members are native Spanish speakers.
