Eliot
Patient, knowledgeable, and dedicated Humanities & English tutor
If you're looking for a tutor who is knowledgeable about subject matter but also recognizes the needs of each individual student, you've found your guy! My approach to tutoring recognizes not only the need to address and go over material but focuses on the opportunity to identify and address what is truly causing a student to struggle. If I can help the student to develop a different way to study or a new approach to a type of material that will help them succeed numerous times in the fu... Read more

My style of teaching allows students to perform most of the cognitive lifting, while I probe them with questions that will enable them to think critical. I am a calm, loving, nurturing father o...
