I have a Master's in Geography and a MBA. I've taught at two community colleges and tutored students at the collegiate level. I know the importance of elementary education and the trouble students have when they fall behind from personal experience. At times students need one-on-one attention with someone who listens to them to understand how they learn. No two students are alike and their tutoring should be customized to their needs. I enjoy tutoring individuals and groups and make it a... Read more

Bill
Seasoned English Teacher - Tutor for Writing, Reading, Test Prep
All kids can learn, so it is imperative to meet them where they are and value where they are. From this place of acknowledgement and respect, I feel like I stand a chance of engaging kids in meaningful inquiry of their lives through literature and written expression. Once I know the student, then we can proceed to build on their skills. I listen well, and I encourage students to learn for the sake of learning, not necessarily to improve grades or test scores (although, those improvements wil... Read more
