This is Walter. Mandarin Chinese is the language I started to speak at one year old. Although all my career is being a scientist, the subject I feel most confident to teach is Mandarin, instead of the sciences. But definitely my scientist background will make the teaching more organized, more informative, and more interesting. I have two kids and know how to work with kids. Boys and girls will have fun while learning the language in a comfortable and pleasant atmosphere. Adult students will f... Read more

Building reading skills is imperative in all subject areas. These skills include reading comprehension, vocabulary, inferring and higher level thinking skills. These reading skills need to be applied in math, social studies, science and of course, reading. When your child does not need help with their homework, I would work on developing their skills to make them more successful in the classroom thereby building self-confidence. I have 22 years experience in the education field. This in... Read more

I have a genuine concern for the value of education, combined with my passion and commitment to educating students. Successful teachers practice positive interaction with their students. In teaching, this interaction often determines the learning success of each student and classroom. Master teachers give respect to each student because students know this works both ways. When this mutual respect is in place quality learning takes place as it has always been in any teaching/learning environme... Read more

I have been a high school mathematics teacher for the past 2 years, as well as a middle/high school math tutor for over 5 years.

With 5+ years of tutoring and teaching experience, I have learned how to exp Read more

I worked in public education for the last 15, years both as a dean and a classroom teacher in Kenosha high schools. I taught American History and both Modern World History and Ancient World History. During that time, I also pursued advanced degrees in education and completed my dissertation for my Doctor of Education degree. I believe that all students can learn but not all students learn the same way or at the same rate. What is necessary is for teachers to try and vary their approach by s... Read more
EVERARDO
My love for teaching started when I saw I was capable "to disect"
My love for teaching comes when I was so young (15 years old). For the leaving hard conditions, as soon as I finished my middle school, I had the opportunity to be a teacher in a rural area in my country, Mexico. After a fast track Summer preparation, I was approved to take full care of the rural elementary school, with only first, second and third grade of elementary education. At this time I knew the purpose of my life: TEACH. After years of study I got my Bachelor degree in Chemical Engi... Read more
Kady
Secondary Ed. Speech/Performance Arts and History Tutor
I have had the blessing and privilege of teaching junior high and senior high students for the past 9 years in a fabulous Christian School, summer camps, and drama camps – I’ve even traveled overseas with students to 10 countries! In my mind, learning pries the gift of life wide open by opening the mind to understanding, increasing wisdom, and cultivating a sense of gratitude for each new facet of life one achieves. The greatest joy of a teacher/tutor is that 'one on one' opportunity to ... Read more
