Improve writing, build confidence, communicate effectively
I'm a former college professor, an author of 2 college textbooks, a writer, a career counselor, business owner and mentor. Most importantly, I love learning about the students I work with, focusing on their goals, helping them get in touch with their values and talents and encouraging them to showcase their best selves. Everyone has the potential to excel in one or even multiple areas, but often a person needs the esteem and assurance that learning and mastering certain skills can bring, espe... Read more
Scott
Tutor for All High School Physics levels (including AP1 and APC)
Physics is hard for many reasons, but one of the main ones is that each unit builds off the previous one - it is hard to perform well in Unit 5 if Units 1-4 aren't understood. Within the first 30 minutes of working with a student, I can find where their issues begin, and will devise a plan to catch them up to their current class level from that point. Having been a teacher, tutor, curriculum writer and consultant for first year teachers, I have seen high school physics from every angle. M... Read more

Tutor with a degree in Elementary Education
As a product of tutoring myself for 6 years in school, I know how much it did to boost my self confidence and self esteem. It was because my tutor believed in me that I wasn’t scared to go out and live my dreams. I graduated with a degree in elementary education (K-6) from Indiana University back in 2013. I received my teaching license from the state of Indiana soon after. I started teaching kindergarten back in high school and took the positive feedback from there onward through college.... Read more
